After coming out of Shu's house, Song Yan wiped his forehead. In the middle of winter, he was so nervous that he was sweating all over.

He let out a long sigh and thought that it would be better to put the proposal of marriage on the agenda as soon as possible.

On the fourth day of the New Year, Song Yan did not go anywhere. He locked himself in the study and spent a whole roll of paper before he achieved the effect he wanted.

Everything is ready, all we need is the east wind.

In a blink of an eye, it was the fifth day of the New Year. He took Song Zhengdu and went to the town with New Year gifts.

First, I went to Mr. He’s house to pay New Year’s greetings.

Master He twisted his beard and warned, "You will take the county exam next month, so remember not to slack off at home."

"Learning is like sailing against the current. If you don't move forward, you will fall behind. You need to read the classics diligently, review poetry and prose, and practice essays every day in preparation for the exams."

Song Zhengdu replied respectfully: "I will follow the Master's teachings and live up to your expectations."

Master He nodded slightly and said, "Go back now. Don't stay outside for too long, or you will delay your studies."

Song Zhengdu bowed and left Master He's residence with Song Yan.

They then went to He Fang's house to pay New Year's greetings.

On their way out, they stopped by the car dealership.

Song Yan took out a letter and asked the driver to deliver it to the county town.

In the next few days, Song Zhengdu studied even harder, after all, there was only one month left before the county exam.

Song Yan tried her best not to disturb him when he was reading, and didn't even ask him to help with the cooking and lighting of the fire.

In the past few days, Shu Changyu came from time to time. When he learned that Song Zhengdu was preparing for the county exam, he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Do you want my help?"

Song Yan subconsciously asked: "What can I help you with?"

Shu Changyu said as a matter of course: "Of course, it was a secret operation to make him the first in the case."

Song Yan was startled and quickly reached out to cover his mouth, saying seriously: "Don't say that. Cheating in the imperial examination is a serious crime."

In the original novel, his son Erlin was imprisoned for being involved in a cheating case in the imperial examinations and eventually died.

Song Yan would never allow his family to compete for the crossing or get involved in any cheating scandal again.

Shu Changyu gently pulled down Song Yan's hand and said calmly, "Oh, I just said it casually."

Song Yan: Haha, your tone doesn't sound like you are just saying it casually.

There was steam rising from the small stove on the table as water was boiling.

When Song Yan saw the water boiling, she opened the lid of the kettle and put in a pinch of black tea and a few slices of ginger.

Shu Changyu frowned at this.

At this time, Song Yan asked him: "Are you free during the Lantern Festival?"

Shu Changyu said frivolously: "If I were to go hand in hand with you, I would naturally be free."

Song Yan complained in her heart, this guy can't speak unless he says dirty words, right?

Then he said, "Well, let's go to the county town to enjoy the lanterns together during the Lantern Festival. I heard that this year's lantern festival is particularly lively."

On the fifteenth day of the Lantern Festival, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly.

Shu Changyu's carriage had stopped in front of the door.

Song Yan pinched Song Wanzhou's pouting lips and said jokingly, "Look at your lips, you can even hang a bottle of oil on them."

"I really have something important to do this time, so I can't take you with me. How about I take you to the county town to play next time?"

Song Wanzhou turned his head and groaned, "Brother, please don't lie to me."

Song Yan laughed: "When did I ever lie to you?"

Song Wanzhou finally smiled: "Then Big Brother and Fourth Brother Shu have fun."

Song Yan turned around and waved: "Erlin, let's go."

Song Zhengdu carried his book basket on his back. He had made an appointment with Ma Kaicheng and several of his classmates to watch the lanterns together tonight, and they happened to be going to the town on the way.

Before leaving, Song Yan repeatedly told An Qi to take good care of the family and then walked towards the carriage.

When he got on the car, he glanced at the driver and found that it was another young man with a stern face whom he had never seen before.

Without asking any more questions, he immediately got into the carriage.

Seeing him coming up, Shu Changyu spoke lazily, revealing a hint of impatience: "You're so slow, I almost fell asleep waiting for you. Come here, let me lean on you for a while."

Song Yan looked at the dark circles under Shu Changyu's eyes and finally softened her heart: "Didn't you sleep well last night again?"

Shu Changyu said lazily: "I went out to deal with some things and came back at dawn."

Didn't he sleep all night?

Song Yan sat over and patted his shoulder: "Then lean on me and take a rest."

Shu Changyu turned his head slightly, leaned his head on Song Yan's shoulder, and closed his eyes.

Song Yan looked at his lazy appearance and sighed in her heart. She should not have asked Shu Changyu out today.

But he had been preparing for today's date for a long time and spent a lot of money, so Song Yan couldn't bear to cancel it.

Song Zhengdu, who followed closely, looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression.

Song Yan raised her head and met his surprised eyes.

He laughed awkwardly twice, not knowing how to explain for a moment, and said, "Please sit down first."

Song Zhengdu nodded. Although he was a little confused, he still sat down as he was told.

His eyes moved back and forth between Shu Changyu and Song Yan. He felt something strange, but he couldn't tell why.

Half an hour later, they arrived in town.

Song Zhengdu said softly: "Brother, I will not go home at the end of this month. I will come back after the county exam is over."

Song Yan said, "That's fine. I'll take you to the county town to take the exam then."

Song Zhengdu originally wanted to say that he was going to the county town with his classmates from private school, and didn't want to cause his elder brother any more worry.

Then, Song Yan said, "If we stay at an inn, the conditions are not good. It's still cold in spring. If we get sick, it will delay the exam. It's better to stay at my eldest brother's place for a few days. I can rest assured that way."

Song Zhengdu didn't say much, but just nodded obediently: "Then do as Big Brother says."

When they arrived at the gate of the private school, Song Zhengdu got off the car.

Song Yan watched his figure disappear behind the door of the private school before letting the driver continue on his journey.

The journey to the county town was bumpy, but Shu Changyu didn't even wake up and slept until noon.

They finally arrived at the county seat.

At this time, Song Yan's shoulders were so stiff as if they were petrified. He lowered his head and looked at Shu Changyu's sleeping face.

His eyelashes were thick, like small fans covering his eye sockets, trembling slightly with his breathing.

Her face is rich and beautiful, like a lifelike doll.

Maybe he was overthinking it.

A trace of tenderness arose in Song Yan's heart. He carefully moved Shu Changyu's head away from his shoulder, trying not to wake him up.

Shu Changyu seemed to sense the movement. His eyelashes trembled slightly, and then he slowly opened his eyes.

"Are we there yet?" His voice was slightly hoarse from having just woken up.

“Just arrived.”

Song Yan looked out the window. Today was the Lantern Festival. The county town was crowded with people and the atmosphere was warm and festive.

Colorful lights and lanterns are hung high on both sides of the street, and vendors set up stalls on the street, selling steaming hot dumplings.

You can imagine how lively it will be at night.

Then he turned to the driver and said, "Please, big brother, go to Jixin Street, South Alley."

The driver outside responded and drove the carriage towards Jixing Street.
