3. Chapter 3

Zhao Cangjie didn't like to make any plans before, but when he encountered this kind of exam, especially this kind of exam, which was always related to the exam, he could always think of the college entrance examination, so he naturally had the idea of making a countdown, and the corresponding study plan was released in one go.

For his approach, the new master expressed his approval on the face, but in his heart he actually didn't think much of it, at this time, the scholars had a kind of "confident" pursuit, and they were secretly competing to see who was more "confident", so naturally they would not do this kind of straightforward to even list the rest time on the paper schedule.

Zhao Cangjie didn't care about other people's opinions, while learning the wording of articles from his master, lest he always habitually use vernacular classical Chinese to describe them, and at the same time memorized some good words, good sentences and key classics, so as not to know the source and make jokes when he needed to quote them.

At the same time, he also has to "mock the exam", which is actually not his innovation, and the imperial examination system has been around for decades, and it is not that there are no smart people trying to make some "papers" in these decades, but they have not reached the reality of Zhao Cangjie, who even has to simulate the environment.

And these hard work is not in vain, with the guidance of the master who has experienced the exam, and I have personally experienced that environment to make me psychologically adapted, and then understand a series of processes after entering the examination room, when the exam started, Zhao Cangjie was extremely calm, with that good skin, even the examiner paid more attention, and even looked at his paper when he was on patrol.

That stroke may not be as good as those who have really read books for ten years, but those points of view are indeed novel, and many things, understood in another direction, will bring a sense of freshness that will be memorable.

Even with these plus points, when the list was posted, Zhao Cangjie's results were still not too high, barely average, which was similar to his expectations.

After the previous exam, he silently took out the paper and let the master read it, the other party's experience is sufficient, and he didn't give a high score in his conscience.

Even if he has the idea of luck at some times, but it is really his turn, Zhao Cangjie is still very self-aware.

However, for a national event like the scientific examination, in the absence of enrollment expansion, the proportion of admission is also very different, so as long as it is on the list, even if it is just Sun Shan, he can get enough attention, not to mention, he is still so young, compared to those who are only on the list, even if he is at the bottom of the ranking, it is enough to say that he is young and promising.

Hou Ye is more satisfied with this, no one is a fat man in one bite, looking at Zhao Cangjie's handsome appearance and good character, and then he can get such results, he is not a good candidate for a son-in-law.

Things were blocked by the old lady and the Zhao family.

Zhao's intention to block is naturally for his own daughter Song Ting, and the old lady is because she can't look down on Zhao Cangjie's family background, or Zhao's maiden family, and feels that this is a low marriage, which will damage the market of Nanping Houfu.

The old lady is not in good health, she has been raised all the year round, she has not walked around for several years, she has long not known what the situation is outside, and there are no suitable candidates for the one or two families she can list.

Zhao was reluctant, her husband and mother-in-law agreed, she couldn't twist her arms and thighs alone, the only thing she could be happy about was that she hadn't pierced her daughter Song Ting's mind before, and maybe she could slowly turn it back in the future.

In ancient times, it was the order of the parents, the words of the matchmaker, no one thought of discussing with Zhao Cangjie before saying that they were married, but the Zhao family tested her with a trace of "Song Yan may not agree", Song Yan guessed a few points smartly, blushed and went back and began to quietly embroider the purse.

Song Ting didn't know this, she was restrained by the Zhao family during this time, and she couldn't spare much time to pay attention to the others.

Zhao Cangjie, the person concerned, was married without knowing anything, and it was only after the matter was settled that someone told him about it.

Zhao Cangjie, who was confused, reacted with a kind of "strong and irreversible plot" heart of the mountain, he obviously didn't flirt with his sister, let alone have any ambiguous dealings with those two, how could he still be pulled into a pair in the end.

If there is anything different, it is more upright than in the plot, it is not a private teaching, but the media is marrying.

No matter how you weigh it, Zhao Cangjie, who still feels that some doors are not right, didn't say anything after seeing the people around him happily congratulate, at this time, any inappropriate words will cast a shadow on this happy event, since it has become a foregone conclusion, it is better to accept it happily.

Song Yan has also seen it, she is a delicate and beautiful woman, maybe the red line between her and "Zhao Cangjie" has already been decided, no matter who is in this shell, they will eventually become a couple, but the ending is slightly different.

If the Ming media is marrying, it is natural to have children and daughters in the future, and naturally there will be no room for fetal pills to play, and there will be no such thing as one corpse and two lives, and it will not let "Zhao Cangjie" lose his life in a daze.

That way, it wouldn't be a tragedy.

No one's reputation will be damaged, and no one will die for it, so it doesn't seem bad.

Good things come in pairs, at this time Zhao Cangjie's appointment also came down, it may be that the Marquis of Nanping helped to move a little, his ranking was able to be selected as a Jishi, everyone who saw this appointment knew that there must be some relationship between them, and in connection with such a high-climbing marriage, some unpleasant words came out.

Zhao Cangjie suddenly received a summons from a maid on this day, saying that Song Yan had asked him to meet in the small garden.

The bright day, the sky is clear, Zhao Cangjie hesitated for a moment, and then went with the waiter, Song Yan, who had been waiting in the small garden, stood among the flowers, saw people coming, and sent away the maid ring beside him, as if he had something to say.

Before coming, Zhao Cangjie's heart turned a lot of thoughts, and even thought of the worst one, it was not Song Yan who asked him out, but a framed bureau, until he really saw Song Yan, he was relieved, but he was a little puzzled why she suddenly asked to meet, or so avoidant.

"Cousin, but what's the matter?" Thinking with a big brain, "Does she not want to get married?" and "Does she have any embarrassing requirements", Zhao Cangjie also asked the waiter to stand a little farther away, waiting for Song Yan to make a move.

"My cousin's talent has always been obvious to all, don't go for those gossip...... Rusty with me. The second half of the sentence was slurking, but in the end it was still said, but it was inevitable that her face would be flushed, Song Yan was shy and embarrassed, such words were no different from confessing love to a lady, and they were inconsistent with the education she had received since childhood, which made her embarrassed, but she did not lower her head, but looked at Zhao Cangjie worriedly, for fear that he would not be able to think about it and be estranged from her.

Zhao Cangjie was stunned for a moment, he boasted of his quick thinking, and after thinking about it, he understood why, those outside said that he relied on his wife's clan and said that he was rich, and there was an insult in his disdain, if he was a machismo, or wanted to save face, he would definitely not be able to stand such words, even if he couldn't destroy his relatives, he would have to leave a knot in his future wife, and his future life would inevitably be overshadowed.

Song Yan is a smart girl, when she heard the words outside, she could naturally think of that situation, but she was still young, a girl of seventeen or eighteen, she had just graduated from high school in modern times, and she couldn't think of any better solution for a while, and she couldn't wait for a better disposal, so she hurriedly came to comfort and forgive.

This thought was straightforward and cute, Zhao Cangjie smiled slightly: "My cousin is too worried, what they said is not an exaggeration." Even if my uncle doesn't say it, for the sake of my uncle's face, someone will take care of me, and these care is not based on my talent, and I have nothing to be upset about it, and I won't be angry with others because of it. ”

Song Yan's worries are aimed at most men in this era, but he Zhao Cangjie is not, at least he is stronger than others in this little bit of resistance to blows, isn't it just to eat soft rice and rely on his wife, what is incomprehensible, at least there is soft rice to eat, and his wife can rely on it, and only those who can't eat can be relied on will say some sour words to find a sense of survival, how can he care about them, let alone be so aggrieved that he vents his temper to his wife.

Zhao Cangjie, who felt that he was a little underestimated, said this loudly and responsibly, in exchange for Song Yan's admiring eyes.

According to reason, she shouldn't like him, who knows what kind of heart her stepmother's family has for herself? At first, she also treated it indifferently with a respectful and distant attitude, and she didn't know when this quiet man walked into her eyes little by little.

They don't see each other much, and many times there are elders and sisters present, but some feelings may not need to be passed on, as long as he is there, as long as he sees it, it is difficult to remove.

has already made a marriage, it is not good to meet in private, Zhao Cangjie consciously spoke, so he did not stay for long, simply greeted Song Yan twice, expressed his concern, and watched her leave first.

"The eldest girl is in such a hurry to ask the young master to meet, but what's the hurry?" the waiter stood far away and couldn't hear clearly.

Zhao Cangjie shook his head and didn't say much, there is no need to explain this kind of thing to others, besides, "I will move out in two days, you are different from Shimo, your family is in the house, but you have to think about it, whether you want to follow me out of the house, aunt, I will explain." ”

When he entered the mansion, the Zhao family was really good to Zhao Cangjie, not only arranged an independent courtyard, but even gave him the identity deed of the people in the courtyard, but these people came from different backgrounds, and there were some children in the Hou Mansion, if he lived in the mansion, it would be fine, once he left, it was not good not to ask clearly and take it with him, causing people to complain.

"Young Master......" The waiter instinctively wanted to show his loyalty, but was interrupted by Zhao Cangjie, "You think about it carefully, and discuss it with your family, there are still two days, don't rush back to me, so as not to regret it later." ”

At this point, the waiter stopped being verbose, answered without saying anything more, and did not ask about the previous matter.
