Chapter 192 Gift after the exam
Chapter 192 Gift after the exam
Yun Zhou and Su Qingluo were relaxing, while Wen Zhimiao was waiting outside the examination room.
Jiang Yiyu was also waiting outside the examination room, but Wen Zhimiao did not go over to say hello because she was afraid that the other party would get nervous when he saw her.
It was rare for Wen Jiuzhao to accompany her today, so the two of them found a seat and even set up a chessboard to play chess after sitting down.
To be honest, Wen Zhimiao's chess skills are really bad, but Yun Zhou has made great progress over the years.
Her chess skills have always been at the entry level.
But Wen Jiuzhao was also willing to play with her, but after Wen Zhimiao played a game himself, he was not so interested anymore.
She asked Chu Qiu to take out her checkers: "Sister, what's the fun of playing Go? Why not play checkers?"
Wen Jiuzhao had no objection. Although she didn't think checkers was more interesting, if Wen Zhimiao wanted to play, she was willing to play with him.
Playing Go requires one to calm down, but it is obvious that Wen Zhimiao cannot calm down.
You don't need to play checkers, it's fun to play casually.
Everyone waiting outside the examination room looked very nervous, but Wen Zhimiao slowly calmed down with the company of Wen Jiuzhao.
My heart gradually calmed down.
Just as the bell rang to signal the end of the exam, Wen Zhimiao and Wen Jiuzhao also finished their game of chess.
Qi Linglang was the first one to come out, but no one from the Qi Mansion came to wait for her.
Wen Zhimiao immediately reached out to greet her when he saw her come out.
As soon as he saw Qi Linglang, Wen Zhimiao handed her a large wooden box that was placed next to him: "Congratulations, you are temporarily freed."
"What is this?" Qi Linglang asked curiously.
"You'll know when you go back and take a look."
Qi Linglang laughed and pointed to the two boxes next to her: "Are these for Shushu and Wanyue?"
"Right, the exam is over, shouldn't we celebrate?"
Wen Zhimiao said with a smile.
She didn't ask whether she did well in the exam. Whether she did well or not, the exam was just over and she should relax first anyway.
Qi Linglang was originally a little nervous, but her nervousness was immediately dispelled.
"Yes."
Wen Jiuzhao stood by and looked at Wen Zhimiao and smiled.
Miaomiao seems to have had this ability since she was a child. She can always easily make everyone happy, except of course those who are against her.
Soon Zheng Shu and Shi Wanyue came out side by side, and they met each other on the way out.
Zheng Shu still looked a little nervous.
Shi Wanyue had comforted her several times, telling her it was nothing to worry about, but she still looked a little uncomfortable, as if she was not satisfied with her answer sheet.
When Qi Linglang saw her slightly red eyes, her heart tightened a little. She put the box in her hand down again, turned around and smiled at Zheng Shu, then took two steps forward and reached out to hold her hand.
"It's okay, you can do it." When Qi Linglang held her hand, Zheng Shu immediately held her hand nervously.
"But I think my writing is very bad." Zheng Shu lowered his head, still feeling uneasy.
Wen Zhimiao walked over, bent down slightly and smiled at her: "Shushu, it's okay."
"If I fail the exam, my father will dislike my mother even more, and she will be unhappy again." Zheng Shu felt that he did not write well this time.
In addition, the pressure from her family was too great. She had been introverted since childhood and had been subjected to her father's repressive education and her mother's constant complaints, complaining that she was not a boy and that her psychological endurance was poor.
Qi Linglang was a little clumsy and didn't know how to comfort her. Seeing that she was about to cry, she could only reach out and hug her, gently patting her back.
"It's okay." She gently smoothed Zheng Shu's back. Zheng Shu would tend to tense up whenever he was under a lot of pressure.
Wen Zhimiao thought about it and opened the gift box that was prepared for her.
Inside is an exquisite model of the newly built canal and supporting water conservancy facilities.
Zheng Shu was born in the family of the Minister of Works. She lived with her grandmother until her grandmother passed away. Her mother did not pay much attention to her because she was a girl.
But her grandmother was closer to her.
Since she was a child, he liked to take her to do some handicrafts and gave her any books she wanted to read, so Zheng Shu was also very interested in these things.
After seeing that thing, Zheng Shu was indeed not so nervous anymore.
She looked at the exquisite model with curiosity and novelty: "Miaomiao, what is this?"
"This is a gift for you. You can even take part in the imperial examination. That's already very impressive. Let Ruitong and Ayao take the exam. They can't even take part in the imperial examination." Wen Zhimiao smiled at her.
Zheng Shu was indeed not so depressed when he heard her words, and he couldn't help laughing: "Ayao and Tongtong will come to you to make trouble if they hear it."
"Just making a fuss. You're not going to pass the exam anyway." Wen Zhimiao spread his hands.
How could she not know the level of those two people?
Qi Linglang also followed the conversation and started chatting with her.
Seeing Zheng Shu relax, Wen Zhimiao also breathed a sigh of relief.
She turned to look at Shi Wanyue, who raised the corner of her mouth slightly: "So, do I have a gift?"
"Of course my sister does."
Wen Jiuzhao couldn't help but tease beside him: "How could she forget you?"
Her words made Shi Wanyue feel a little embarrassed.
Wen Zhimiao gave the last small box to Shi Wanyue.
Shi Wanyue opened the box and took a look. It contained a folding fan, a sachet and a bracelet.
The workmanship of the sachet looks different from the other two.
The stitching on the embroidery is also very rough.
There was a painting on the folding fan, depicting a scene of plum blossoms in bloom in winter, and there was a seal below it, which looked very familiar to Shi Wanyue.
It is the seal of the abbot of Qingyun Temple outside Yunjing City.
It's obvious that Wen Zhimiao had requested this painting specifically.
One can tell at a glance that the bracelet's workmanship is of the same level as the jewelry Wen Zhimiao usually wears, and it must have been specially customized.
"The bracelet was made by designer Jiang Yechu and teacher Duan Yunting a few days ago. Sister, please try it to see if it fits." Wen Zhimiao scratched his head awkwardly.
Wen Jiuzhao laughed at her from the side.
Shi Wanyue stretched out her hand: "Since it was given by Miaomiao, how about asking Miaomiao to help me?"
She shook the folding fan in her hand as if to indicate that she had no hands.
Wen Zhimiao quickly agreed.
She took the bracelet and helped Shi Wanyue put it on.
The size is just right.
Shi Wanyue looked at the bracelet on her wrist and raised her eyes to meet Wen Zhimiao's.
Those clear and beautiful peach blossom eyes were smiling at the moment, and she seemed very satisfied with the gift that I had chosen for her.
Shi Wanyue looked at the sachet again and reached out to pick it up.
The workmanship is indeed rough.
But the spices in it smell nice.
Shi Wanyue hung it directly around her waist.
"very nice."
Wen Zhimiao had no embarrassment in praising other things, but she felt a little embarrassed when praising this sachet.
Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu were also standing nearby at this moment.
Zheng Shu looked at Shi Wanyue's gift, then looked at his own.
"Miao Miao is so considerate."
Qi Linglang laughed: "When has she ever been uncaring?"
"That's true."
Wen Jiuzhao also gave them the gifts she had prepared. They were nothing expensive, just wood carvings she had carved herself, but they were very beautiful and exquisite.
Afterwards, Wen Zhimiao invited everyone to go to Shilizui for a meal.
Shi Wanyue looked at Wen Zhimiao, then at her grandmother who was not far away.
Finally he nodded in agreement.
"But I have to send my grandmother back first, and accompany her for a walk in the city. My grandmother has been here for quite a few days, and I haven't been able to accompany her properly. Can I go directly to Shilizui to find you in the evening?" Shi Wanyue looked at Wen Zhimiao.
Wen Zhimiao looked at Shi Wanyue and then at Jiang Yiyu, scratched her head, thinking it was her negligence.
"Alright."
Shi Wanyue went to find her grandmother first. Qi Linglang and Zheng Shu were not in a hurry to go back, so Wen Zhimiao simply called He Yuanyao and Bian Ruitong out as well.
He Yuanyao came out in a wheelchair, looking miserable.
