My old attack is the snake king

Chapter 57 Doubt

On the second day, the weather was not good, and it snowed lightly. Wen Tianxing and Zhao Qianzi's plan to hang ribbons at the Marriage Tree fell through.

It is now the end of November, and the first snow of the year began to fall in Qinzhou. It didn't last long, but it stopped after an hour.

In the room, Jiang Chu found a cloak from his luggage. Fortunately, he was far-sighted and brought a lot of thick clothes, otherwise he would have to suffer from the cold.

Putting on a thick cotton coat and a black fur cape, I went out to admire the main city of Qinzhou after the snow.

"It's colder after the snow." He rubbed his hands and ran out to look at the scenery, everywhere was covered in silver, and there were footprints of all sizes on the ground. There were many people on the street, most of them were children, and they were noisy. , Some were having snowball fights, and some children even built a little snowman with this little snow.

Seeing them so happy, all of them were smiling, as if he was infected by their joy, he walked up.

"Brother, do you want to make a snowman?" A little girl's childish voice came, although her face was red from the cold, her little hands were still busy making snow.

"Okay!"

But today, he is wearing too thick clothes, and squatting down is a problem.

The little girl glanced at him with doubts in her eyes: "Brother, you wear so many clothes, you look like a big black bear, how can you make a snowman?"

"..." It really is childish speech.

The little girl in front of her was only wearing a cotton padded jacket, and she was lightly dressed. Most of the children around her were wearing cotton padded jackets. I heard from them that they would not be cold if they played more activities.

"Brother, if you move more, you won't be cold anymore. I will feel warm now." After finishing speaking, the little girl was summoned by a group of children to build a snowman again.

He put the cloak on his body aside, and the cold wind raged at first, but after he started to move around, it was no longer cold.

Once you play it, you will enjoy it.

At the same time, I also forgot some of the troubles at the beginning.

When we got back to Wen's house, it was already noon, Wen Tianxing was not there, Wen Zhu and his wife were in the shop, only Master Wen and some servant girls were there.

Master Wen likes snowy days, and he is sitting in the courtyard enjoying the snow scene at home.

"Grandpa, it's cold and the ground is slippery. Be careful when you come out." Jiang Chu also sat up, rubbed his little hands, and laughed.

Master Wen looked at his grandson with a smile while holding his cane: "Are you happy playing with the children, Ah Chu?"

"Did you see it? Hehe." Jiang Chu scratched his head, a little embarrassed.

Master Wen smiled again on his wrinkled face, "Grandpa sees that you have been in a bad mood recently, do you feel much better after playing?"

"Well, much better."

In fact, everyone knew that he was here to relax.

Jiang Chu suddenly fell silent, looked up at the sun that had just appeared in the sky, and smiled at the corner of his mouth, "Actually, it's nothing."

An ordinary trivial matter would not be remembered by him for so long.

"Grandpa is getting old. He has seen all kinds of storms and experienced everything. If there are problems, he will solve them. If there are troubles, he will find a way to forget them. After a long time, if he forgets, he forgets."

"Well, it's really nothing." Jiang Chu repeated this sentence, as if wanting to turn the topic to Master Wen, and continued:

"Grandpa, don't go out in snowy weather, the road is slippery."

Hearing this, Master Wen sighed softly, shook Jiang Chu's cold hand, then stood up, leaning on crutches, and with Jiang Chu's support, Master Wen was sent into the room.

"Grandpa, I thought about going home in two days, and it's almost New Year's Eve. I saw the first snow in Qinzhou today. I don't know if it snowed in Tanzhou City today." Jiang Chu took off his cloak and fetched a brazier from the woodshed , the two began to warm up in the room.

"That's right, it's almost Chinese New Year, go back, so as not to worry your mother and the others."

Originally thought that Master Wen would let him stay a little longer, but he didn't expect that this time it would be so easy and he agreed.

"I won't worry them. I'm old enough to take care of myself."

Master Wen sighed slightly, with a helpless smile on his vicissitudes face.

"Hey, grandpa doesn't believe me? You don't know that I'm very good! A few days ago, my cousin and Peony girl subdued the flower picker. Also, my father and I went to a small county below our Tanzhou a while ago Kill, the case is over!"

"Ah Chu has grown up and knows how to share the worries of the common people." Master Wen patted Jiang Chu on the shoulder.

Hearing his grandfather's praise, he smiled "hehe". After all, he is the son of the magistrate, and these things should be done.

"Does Ah Chu want to be an official in the capital?" Master Wen suddenly asked such a question.

Jiang Chu was silent for a moment, "I don't want to, I'm just an ordinary person after all, and I can't compare to my father."

Jiang Qiucheng was a taboo topic for Master Wen, but today he brought it up.

This time, Master Wen didn't lose his temper as imagined, but just quietly pondered over his words.

"Your father is indeed a rare talent." Master Wen sighed.

But he married his precious daughter, and Wen Lan hadn't enjoyed a few years of happiness in the capital, and their family was demoted to Tanzhou to be the magistrate.

Although the magistrate is considered the head of a state, the poor and remote village of Tanzhou is like being the boss of some mountain villagers.

Fortunately, 14 years have passed, and Tanzhou is getting better and better.

"The capital city is not as good as imagined. Your father is like this. I think your father definitely doesn't want to return to the court to be an official."

"Since that's the case, why do some people insist on going to Beijing for the exam?"

"If children from poor families want to get rid of the status quo, going to Beijing to take the exam is the fastest way."

Indeed, Jiang Qiucheng was a child from a poor family back then, and he happened to go to Beijing to take the exam for high school.

"Grandpa, I don't want to be an official. Besides, with my virtue, if I go to the exam, I will definitely come back from the bottom of the exam. Then you will be ashamed and humiliated."

However, Bai Qingheng is a child from a poor family, and he wanted to go to Beijing to take the exam, this is what he said back then.

However, the attic in the east of the city and his usual clothes and money, how could he be a so-called poor family?

For the first time, Jiang Chu had doubts about his former teacher.

When I just fell out of love, I went to the house to find someone many times without noticing those things, but now I think about it and feel something is wrong.

Besides, the reason why he inexplicably called that person's name in the small town's crypt was because he touched the person's hand and smelled a faint scent from him.

How could the robe that day just fit his figure?

The more he thought about it, the more confused he was. He scratched his hair, and his mood became even more confused.

"Achu, did you hear what I said?" Master Wen patted him.

"Huh? Grandpa?" He just ran out of his thoughts, raised his head and looked at the helpless grandpa sitting beside him.

Master Wen saw that he was absent-minded, so he said: "Let's go back after the snow on the road melts."

"Okay, Grandpa." Jiang Chu nodded, stood up, took the cloak, and continued: "Grandpa, I suddenly left in advance."

Master Wen waved his hand, "Go, go."
