Chapter 6 Awake
"Yuan Qian, why did you hit me?" Hu Su rubbed his chest and grinned.

"When did you follow me?" Yao Yi asked with a dark face.

"Just now, isn't my house right there? I saw you, Yuan Qian, as soon as I came back." Hu Su pointed to the house next to him, and Yao Yi saw that it was really Hu's mansion, so he walked back by himself.

"Hey, Yuan Qian, but did you fall in love with that one just now? I know that one..." Hu Su raised his eyebrows and asked wretchedly.

"Don't talk nonsense, I'm just wandering around." Yao Yi interrupted him. After all, this is ancient times. Yao Yi still knows the difficulties of ancient women. If Hu Su's nonsense spreads, it will harm the little girl.

"Hey." Hu Su didn't say anything, just smiled obscenely.Yao Yi sighed helplessly, turned around and left, leaving only Hu Su standing where he was thinking.

Yao Yi, who knew that his family lived there, bought a lot of things, and followed the guidance of the shopkeeper of Rouge Shop to find Xiushan Village.Then I found a few children who were playing, and asked them to help move things under the pretext, and finally found my own home after tossing around for a long time.

After sending the child away with some snacks, Yao Yi looked at his home.This is a typical small farmyard. The house is a bit old, but it should be cleaned frequently, and some vegetables are grown in the yard.Not great, but not bad either.

Seeing that the house was clean, Yao Yi didn't clean it up, took out the food he bought and fooled around with dinner.Just after eating and cleaning up, someone was talking in the yard. Yao Yi went out to see that an old man on crutches led the couple in the yard.

"Brother Yi is back." The old man looked familiar, as if he knew Yao Yi very well.

Yao Yi, who was the only one whose memory was not implanted by the big ball of light, could only smile, salute respectfully, and invite them in.

"Brother Yi, what's the result of this test?" The old man sat down and asked with a smile.

"It was a fluke."

"Then Brother Yi plans to go to Bianjing Taixue?"

"It hasn't been decided yet." What, going to school again?No, as long as I have good luck, I can get the answer directly in the examination room.

"Brother Yi is worried about expenses? The folks are willing to help."

"No need, don't worry, I have my own plan." Yao Yi resolutely refused according to his personality.

"Brother Yi misunderstood. It's like this. Ninety percent of the families in Xiushan Village have the surname Zhang. As the patriarch, I am also Baozheng. Naturally, I have to do something for them. There are some orphans and widows in the village. I just want to get a few acres of public land. , let’s help each other, and the food we give will support them.”

"Good thing." I just told myself why, and my surname is not Zhang.

"So we want to buy Yi Ge'er's farmland, so that Yi Ge'er can have some money to go to school with peace of mind." The man behind him took out a dozen strings of copper coins.

Yao Yi didn't say anything. He didn't know the price per mu, but he always felt that this field was considered his ancestral property and shouldn't be sold.Moreover, what the old man meant was that he was still helping Yao Yi after buying his own field, which made Yao Yi feel a little uncomfortable.

"Hahaha, you don't have to be like this. I think it's the same to concentrate on studying and preparing for the exam at home." Yao Yi said with a smile, the meaning of refusal was already obvious.

"Brother Yi, don't take it to heart. If you can't pass the exam in the next year, wouldn't it be a waste of three years of hard work?" The old man's words are not alarmist. The title of scholar in the Song Dynasty is not lifelong. If you fail the provincial exam You have to do it all over again.Yao Yi was selected as a scholar before, but this time he took the Fajie Examination again before taking the provincial exam. This is why Yao Yi gained such a great reputation. It is equivalent to taking the national exam and the State Council exam. If you pass the written exam, you will be admitted I had an interview, but I gave up because I had no money to go to Beijing by car, and I didn’t want other people’s funding, so I had to save my own money and take the exam next time.

But this old man is not a scholar after all, he doesn't know that since Zhang Yuan rebelled against the Song Dynasty and went to Xia, there has been no pass in the palace examination, how could Yao Yi have an official status, let alone how he can cheat.

"Don't worry about it, how about this, I will take this field out and let others cultivate it, and the grain will be given to the poor people in the village, and I don't want any money, what do you think?" Yao Yi tentatively asked.

Sure enough, upon hearing Yao Yi's words, the couple behind the old man got a little anxious, and quickly winked at the old man, who had a bad face.Seeing this, Yao Yi also knew something in his heart.

"Then what about Brother Yi's usual expenses?" The old man forced a smile and asked.

"Oh, I don't want you to worry about it. This time I went to the exam, I saved an old man on the way. The old man was moved and gave me all his wealth. Now I don't need money." Yao Yi said nonsense.

The old man lived most of his life, how could he not see Yao Yi's perfunctory, his face turned livid.

"Brother Yi has gained fame, and his style has changed a lot compared to before." The old man said something neither soft nor hard, probably meaning that Yao Yi is now a juren and looks down on his fellow villagers.Then he motioned for the man to collect the money and left with him.

Yao Yi watched them leave, frowned and said to himself:
"Did I not act well? That's right, the scholar Yao Yi couldn't make up a lie about the old man giving away his family property when he was seriously ill, so he got carried away with complacency."

In fact, it's no wonder, Yao Yi is the first time after all, but this time it reminded him that the human design cannot be broken.In fact, Yao Yi also knows why Daguangqiu insists on imposing personal restrictions on him. This is to play the role of scholar Yao Yi, reminding himself that there is a world consciousness above his head all the time, so as to reduce the exposure of flaws.If everyone sets limits, what they say and do is the traces of modern people, and it will be strange not to be discovered.

That night Yao Yi was just dreaming that he jumped too much and was slapped to death by the world consciousness, and then he was frightened awake.

On the second day, Yao Yiqiang cheered up. After all, the old man might still have a backup, so he had to guard against it.I found a child in the village and asked him to take him to see his own field. Only when he saw his own field did Yao Yi realize how dark the old man is. Ten acres of good paddy fields should not be so small no matter what. money.

Yao Yi found a field by the field and sat down, propping his head up and thinking.Based on Yao Yi's experience in reading novels for so many years, there is no villain who is so easy to give up. Rather than passively counterattack, it is better to take the initiative.

After making up his mind, Yao Yi immediately asked the children in the village to inform the family members here, saying that there was something to inform everyone.After all, Yao Yi was the only one in the village with a reputation, and it was not a busy season, so most of the people came here to save face.

"Fellow folks." Yao Yi, dressed in a gray Confucian robe, first saluted and said hello to the folks.

"Mr. Xiucai has been admitted to Juren, and you want to treat us to dinner?" Someone in the crowd was coaxing.

"It makes sense. I usually thank the folks for their help. This time I was able to pass the exam because of the folks. So I plan to invite many of the folks to have a drink tomorrow." Yao Yi followed the good advice.

"Okay."

"Scholar, please be polite."

"Thank you Mr. Xiucai." Everyone was very happy when they heard that there was a banquet.

"Ahem, there is a second thing to announce." Yao Yi signaled everyone to be quiet.
