Started as a thatched house and ended up as a female figure

Gu Yan's life is safe, Cheng Wan and Cheng Daping are reunited with their families, and today the Cheng Mansion is filled with a joyful atmosphere, and even the faces of the servants who are busy walking around the mansion have a little more relaxation.

After the joyful welcoming banquet, Cheng Wan didn't dare to waste any more time. After saying hello to Old Lady Lin and others, he quickly walked towards his own yard.

There are only four days left before the exam, so we must seize the time and prepare for the exam!

Suddenly, Cheng Wan stopped walking and turned to look at Xu Zhinian: "Niannian, when you go back, ask Uncle Xu if he is busy these evenings. If he is free, I will go to him to ask him some questions about the college entrance examination."

Time was too tight, and Cheng Wan clearly understood that she had to use all the resources she could.

As Xu Zhuocheng was also a Jinshi, he could definitely provide her with a lot of useful guidance.

After Wang's emotions had stabilized, she sent Aunt Zhichun to the Xu Mansion to pick up Xu Zhinian.

Wang knew that Xu Zhinian cared about Cheng Wan as much as any other member of the Cheng family.

Xu Zhinian, who was originally chatting and laughing with Wang, nodded heavily after hearing Cheng Wan's words, and said in a clear voice: "I will go home now and tell my father about this as soon as I see him!"

Given the relationship between the Cheng and Xu families, Xu Zhinian believed that as long as her father did not have anything urgent or necessary to do in the evenings these few days, her father would be very happy to help.

"Okay, I'll go back and read."

There was no need to thank Xu Zhinian. Cheng Wan waved to Xu Zhinian, turned around and walked away.

After saying hello to Old Lady Lin and others, Xu Zhinian quickly walked out.

……

At dusk, Xu Zhinian lifted her skirt and stepped over the threshold of the main gate of the Cheng Mansion. She looked up and her foot, which was about to fall, paused involuntarily in the air.

Cheng Daping, who was already waiting beside the carriage, suddenly brightened up the moment he saw Xu Zhinian. He quickly lowered his eyelashes, and when he looked up again, his eyes had returned to their previous calmness and composure: "I'll take Miss Xu back."

Xu Zhinian walked to the carriage as usual. Just as he was about to step on the stool to get in, an arm suddenly appeared at his side.

Despite being wrapped in cloth, Xu Zhinian could still see that the arm was strong and powerful.

"Miss Xu, if you don't mind, you can lend me your strength."

Cheng Daping's voice was low and steady, and no one could tell that his other hand was trembling slightly from nervousness.

Xu Zhinian lowered her eyes and stared at Cheng Daping's arm for two moments. It was just a carriage, she was not so weak that she needed someone to support her.

but……

Xu Zhinian blinked, then raised his hand and gently placed it on Cheng Daping's forearm.

Hard and hot.

Xu Zhinian's heart was pounding in her chest like a fawn being chased by a cheetah; the rapid "thump thump" sound hurt her eardrums.

However, Xu Zhinian showed nothing. The hand on the man's arm naturally pressed down harder. With his earlobe sticking out, Xu Zhinian got into the carriage with a serious look on his face.

Only after he sat down in the carriage did Xu Zhinian hold his chest and gasp as if he had been pardoned.

The temperature of my cheeks was getting higher and higher, and the "thumping" sound in my chest seemed to break through the confinement of my flesh.

Xu Zhinian patted his cheeks with his hands, trying to cool them down, but it was no use.

Finally, Xu Zhinian bit her lower lip and covered her red face in despair.

Cheng Daping stood beside the horse stool, looking at the carriage door, feeling the burning heat on his right forearm, and recalling the girl's hair being lifted by the evening breeze. His Adam's apple rolled unconsciously twice: "Miss Xu, we are leaving."

Xu Zhinian paused while covering his face, then quickly sat up straight like a child who had done something wrong and coughed softly before uttering one word: "Okay."

As the wheels rolled, the carriage passed by the vendors and pedestrians on both sides of the road, and also passed by a different kind of bustle.

But the people inside and outside the carriage didn't care about the excitement at all.

People outside the car are thinking about the people inside the car, and people inside the car are also thinking about the people outside the car.

"I heard... Miss Xu hasn't met anyone yet?" Cheng Daping realized that the words were too abrupt right after he said them. He hurriedly added, "Miss Xu is Ah Wan's best friend. I asked Ah Wan a question or two before."

Xu Zhinian in the car blinked twice and said honestly, "I haven't met her yet."

"Then Miss Xu, have you ever thought about what kind of husband you want to marry in the future?"

As soon as the words fell, Cheng Daping and Xu Zhinian's heartbeats accelerated at the same time, and their heartbeats reached the same accord at this moment.

"My marriage is decided by my father and mother. I just hope that my future husband can treat me sincerely like my father treats my mother..."

The girl's words were shattered by the breeze. Cheng Daping looked at the gate of Xu's mansion not far away and said, "Yes, Miss Xu will definitely achieve her wish."

……

In Cheng Wan's study room at the Cheng Mansion, Cheng Wan was reading "The Sacred Edicts" with full concentration.

"Master, your parents and Xu Zhuocheng are here."

Ok? !

Cheng Wan looked up suddenly, his eyes lighting up.

At the same time, Cheng Daniu's voice came from outside.

"Ah Wan, your Uncle Xu is here, come out and greet him..."

"Brother Daniu, the child must be concentrating on reading. Don't bother her. I will go find her myself."

"Dad, Mom, Uncle Xu!" Cheng Wan ran out quickly.

Xu Zhuocheng hadn't seen Cheng Wan for a long time. Seeing Cheng Wan's energetic appearance, he couldn't help but smile: "Nian Nian said you wanted to ask me some questions about the college entrance examination. I thought you were so busy, so I took the initiative to come to you to save you the trouble of running back and forth."

"Thank you, Uncle Xu!" Cheng Wan felt a warm current surge in his heart, and he swore for the umpteenth time that he would study hard in the days before the exam!

Cheng Wan did what he said. From the night of June 18th, the day he returned home, until the morning of June 22nd, when he stood outside the examination room waiting to enter, Cheng Wan did not leave the study room except to wash up.

When she was tired from studying and too sleepy to hold on, she would just lie down and take a nap, and then let Jinjin wake her up on time to continue studying.

To be honest, Cheng Wan felt that his life had been too fulfilling these days. It was so fulfilling that when he stood outside the examination room, he felt as if his soul was leaving his body.

To be specific, the body is standing here, but the soul seems to be still in the study at home absorbing all kinds of knowledge.

"Zhao, Zhao Ping Hou, are you okay?"

Cheng Wan's mind was full of the knowledge she had memorized. She didn't dare to move too much, for fear of losing the knowledge in her mind, so she just turned slightly to glance at Jiang Shidu who was standing behind her: "I'm fine."

Jiang Shidu looked at Cheng Wan's ghostly face and dark circles under his eyes that were almost as dark as ink, and opened his mouth.

"Next person."

It was Cheng Wan's turn to enter. Cheng Wan didn't bother to listen to what Jiang Shidu said. She just said quietly and quickly, "Do well in the exam," and then followed Aunt Shen and Aunt Meng who were responsible for checking her.
