Ning Xin stroked her little cheek, which was trembling with surprise.

She smiled at Gu Fei with her small white teeth and called out softly: "Brother!"

She usually isn't so arrogant, just to cater to Gu Fei's preferences.

This guy seems to like cute little lolita.

But Cui Wenyan on the side had never seen her like this before, and he shuddered subconsciously at her yelling, feeling very uncomfortable.

Gu Fei smiled and touched her messy head.

"I haven't seen you for two months. You've put on a lot of weight, little one."

Compared to when she first traveled through time, she has indeed gained some weight.

She was malnourished in the past, so after eating and drinking well, not only did she grow taller, but her face also gained weight, making her look chubby.

It was a little difficult for Gu Fei to pick her up, so he could only put her on a chair aside and told her everything that happened in front of the examination room today.

"Your father is a gentleman. He didn't let go of Pei Shan even in such a critical situation."

Gu Fei drank some water to moisten her throat, and the hairs on Ning Xin's head stood up.

It was so terrible. If the soldiers around Gu Fei hadn't reacted quickly and cut off the horse's legs, her father would have been trampled to death by now.

"Daddy..." She wanted to say something.

But before he spoke, Ning Chengwen lowered his head: "Xin'er, don't be angry, it was dad who was wrong."

He looked nervous, like a child who was afraid of being criticized for doing something wrong.

Ning Xin was stunned for a moment, and it took her a while to realize that her father was afraid that she would be angry.

It's all her fault that she instills in her father at home every day that the only way out is the scientific examination.

After telling her so many times, her father thought she was preoccupied with exams and didn't want him to get into trouble.

Cultural knowledge is important, but ideological education must also keep up, not to mention that Gu Fei is still here.

Ning Xin quickly sublimated: "You are brave and kind, and dad is Xin'er's hero!"

Ning Chengwen's face looked better to the naked eye.

"But." Ning Xin added: "Dad, please protect yourself before helping others. After all, our father and daughter are connected."

She told me that her heart was throbbing in the morning, so she came to the county seat.

Seeing his daughter's embarrassment, Ning Chengwen held it back again and again, and finally couldn't hold it back any longer, and his eye circles became red.

"Daddy promises that Xin'er will never worry again in the future." He choked with sobs.

Ning Xin patted her crybaby daddy on the shoulder, with helplessness written all over her face.

Gu Fei found it funny.

This man was really weird. He almost got trampled by a horse and cried all over his body. He burst into tears after the little girl came and said a few words.

Cui Wenyan also found it quite strange.

Why is it that at his uncle's house it seems like the adults and children have become separated...

"The county government has begun investigating the crazy horse incident today. The final exam will be held again soon. Don't leave in a hurry. Just wait in the county seat."

Afterwards, Gu Fei looked at Ning Chengwen lazily and said with a faint smile: "Brother Ning is doing this for the sake of justice. Let me tell you, your injury will never be in vain."

After saying that, he stood up, shook out the wrinkles on his robe, and said to Ning Xin: "Little one, my brother is busy and will come to play with you in a few days."

After Gu Fei left, Ning Chengwen, who confirmed that nothing was wrong, also left the hospital with Ning Xin and Cui Wenyan.

On the way, Ning Xin was still wondering what Gu Fei's words just meant.

Ning Chengwen was brave and did good deeds. Is it possible that he could still be recommended for a place in the imperial examination?

But after knowing that her father got two top marks in the three subjects, Ning Xin felt that this recommended quota was really useless.

It's better to let him take the exam himself, no matter what the result is, it will be fair and aboveboard.

After being saved, you will be criticized if you enter officialdom.

Thinking of this, she tugged on Ning Chengwen's sleeve and asked, "Dad, what would you do if the county commends you for your righteous deed?"

Ning Chengwen thought for a while: "Let's see what the award is."

If the prize was a large box of gold ingots, then why didn't he accept it?

Ning Xin was so amused by her father's imagination that she was so scared.

…

On the other side, when Gu Fei arrived at the county government office, County Magistrate Sun was very worried about what happened today.

Crazy horse almost trampled the examinee to death. If someone with an intention to intervene in front of the Holy Master, he might not be able to keep his black gauze hat.

"Your Majesty, please save me quickly!"

Seeing Gu Fei enter the door, he hurriedly came out from behind the desk to greet her.

Gu Feihun said nonchalantly: "Master Sun is very afraid, and he is not dead. It just delays the exam for a few days."

"But...but what happened is that the lower officials did not do their job well..."

"Master Sun, what you said is wrong."

Gu Fei smiled lightly and said: "Everything has two sides. The Holy Father likes scholars with good moral character the most. If he knew that such a virtuous gentleman came out of the land under your jurisdiction, he would be happy before it was too late, and he would not punish you."

Magistrate Sun was stunned for a moment, and his eyes suddenly lit up.

"The prince is saying..."

Gu Fei waved his hand: "I didn't say anything." He yawned lazily: "My prince has gone back to rest. You should find out about Crazy Horse quickly, so as not to chill the students' minds.

OK."

-

After learning about his uncle's situation, Cui Wenyan drove a donkey cart back to Dayao Village early the next morning.

On the one hand, Ning Chengwen still has to live in the county for a while, so there is no need for him to stay for so long.

On the other hand, he wanted to take the news back to the rest of the Ning family to avoid worrying them.

"Cousin, tell grandma and aunt not to worry. Daddy is here with me. We will go back after the exam is over."

Ning Xin patted her small chest and assured her.

Cui Wenyan nodded, and suddenly thought of something, and said, "Why call me cousin instead of brother?"

"What?" Monk Ning Xin was confused.

"Nothing." Cui Wenyan lowered his eyelids, slapped the donkey on the buttocks with a whip, and left the scene quickly.

Ning Xin:......

In the next few days, Ning Chengwen spent time in the inn reviewing his books.

He didn't suffer any injuries, he just fell and had a few bruises on his body.

Just apply some medicinal wine at ordinary times and it will be fine.

During this period, Mr. Shen and Mrs. Shen brought Pei Shan to the door to say thank you.

Mrs. Shen was in tears, and Pei Shan bowed frequently. Only Mr. Shen was more emotionally stable, but before leaving, he held Ning Chengwen's hand and kept lamenting that he had not misjudged the person. He was really a wonderful child.

Wei Ling, a classmate, also came twice, both times to deliver supplements to Ning Chengwen.

Every time I come here, I keep praising him for his bravery and perseverance. He really has the character of a sage.

At first, Ning Xin was worried that her father would be too arrogant, but when she saw that Ning Chengwen still diligently studied and studied after seeing off guests, her worries disappeared.

That's right, her father was once imprisoned in the Cheng family for several years without being driven crazy.

A few compliments can't affect your mentality.

Ning Xin counted the days, and on the fifth day of the incident, she finally got the news.

Early that morning, the lobby of the inn was occupied by a large number of government officials.
