The White-Bone Demon of the Farm is as rich as a country
Chapter 142 Making Friends
After the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, people become busy.
The workshop was running at full capacity, frying chili sauce all day long. The people in the shop in the city prepared everything and set off on the 18th day of the first lunar month under the leadership of Uncle Wei. Also on the road was Wang Shuisheng, who had been in charge of the workshop before.
The county examination was in a month's time, and Chu Ning'an went back and forth between the academy and his home every day, leaving early and returning late. Although Mr. Wu said that he would have no problem passing the county examination in February and the prefectural examination in April, Chu Ning'an did not want to make any mistakes.
For the past six months, he relied on Ru Yue to make money to support the family. People thought that he was the one giving Ru Yue advice and solutions behind the scenes, and no one said anything behind her back. However, when he thought that the burden of the family was on the shoulders of a little girl like her, he felt heartbroken.
Chu Ning'an became a direct disciple of Mr. Wu and did not study in any academy, so he did not have many classmates. Fortunately, Mr. Wu helped him with all matters such as registration and guarantee, so there was no trouble.
On the 20th day of the first lunar month, Chu Ning'an was studying in a study room in the library when Mr. Wu came to see him with two young men.
"Ning An, I've brought two people here for you to meet. They're also going to take part in the county exam just like you. They're staying at the academy for the next few days, so you two can encourage each other and help each other improve."
Chu Ning'an hurriedly stood up and went to greet them, and saw two young men following behind Mr. Wu. Both of them were about seventeen or eighteen years old. Although their temperaments were different, they were both of good character and appearance.
The two men were also secretly looking at Chu Ning'an. They were all impressed by his outstanding appearance, with amazement in their eyes. It was really unbelievable that such an inconspicuous town could give birth to such a talented man.
"This is my student Chu Ning'an." He turned around and pointed at the man in the green robe. "This is County Magistrate Xu's nephew, Young Master Yang Sixian."
Without waiting for Mr. Wu to introduce the other person, he hurried forward, clasped his fists, and said, "Hello, Brother Chu. If you don't mind, you can just call me Sixian. This is my cousin Chen Yihe."
The young man called Chen Yihe was wearing a light apricot-colored robe. Unlike Yang Sixian's outgoing and cheerful demeanor, he was a gentle and refined man. "Hello, Brother Chu. Sorry to bother you these past few days."
Chu Ning'an looked at the two men and returned the greeting with a fist, saying distantly and politely, "Hello, gentlemen."
"Hahaha, you young people should chat with each other more. I think you will all be familiar with each other in a short time. Ning An, I entrust these two young masters to you. Please help them if you need anything." He laughed heartily, "Sixian, Yi and you can stay here with peace of mind. If you have anything, just talk to Ning An. If you encounter academic matters, you can discuss them together, or you can come to me." After speaking, he turned and left, waving his hand to stop the three people from seeing him off.
"Master, rest assured, I will entertain the two young masters well."
Both of them brought their own servants, so most things didn't need to be done by others. It was just that they were not familiar with the place, so he needed to help his master and show his hospitality.
Mr. Wu disappeared, and the three of them looked at each other, clapping their hands and laughing.
"Brother Ning'an, I have known you for a long time. I always heard Mr. Wu and my uncle say that he had accepted a good apprentice. To be honest, I also wanted to become Mr. Wu's disciple a while ago, and even asked my uncle to help me to intercede, but Mr. Wu never agreed. Only after meeting you today did I realize that I am far inferior to you!" Yang Sixian is a talkative person, but he is frank and sincere, and not annoying. On the contrary, his self-deprecating nature makes people feel more approachable, and Chu Ning'an also has a better impression of him.
"Brother Sixian, thank you for your praise. Please stay here peacefully. If you have any questions, just tell me. The other teachers in the academy are also knowledgeable and ambitious. I think they will be of great help to you in your preparation for the exam." Chu Ning'an just doesn't like to make close friends, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't understand these things. He is also good at polite words.
"Thank you very much, Brother Ning An. My cousin speaks directly, but he never means any harm. Don't take it to heart." Although Chen Yihe is younger than Yang Sixian, he is much calmer and more steady in his actions and words.
"Brother Yihe, there's no need to be so polite. We still have some time to go, so just focus on your studies here."
After some communication, the three young men quickly became good friends and learned some of each other's private affairs from each other. When they heard that Chu Ning'an's family lived in a village not far away, they even wanted to visit him. Of course, this was what Yang Sixian said, but it also left Chen Yihe speechless.
