Text Chapter 66 The penultimate one
The person who spoke was Chen Xia, he now knew the results, he won the first place on the list, the exam was shortlisted and only the top 20 were recruited, and his sister Chen Tao was just the twentieth, so the Chen family had two children who were admitted to the highest medical school in the Tang Dynasty at the same time, he looked at the list in Jingkou County in the morning and didn't have time to go home to report the good news, only sent a small guy to return to his parents, and he first ran to the neighboring county to tell his sister Chen Tao the good news, and was ready to go to the Jin family to humiliate him。
"Hey, Brother Jin, I'm really puzzled, why do you go to my sister every day" Chen Xia.
Chen Tao said: "Brother, can you stop a little, I haven't settled the account for you last time, don't talk today."
Jin Cheng laughed and said: "Uncle is naughty, you hurt me last time, I laughed it off, for your sister's sake, I put up with you for the last time."
Chen Xia didn't stop at this topic, and said with a cold face: "There is no your eldest brother here, my grandfather is in a good mood today, let's go and see the list."
Jin Chengxin said that he was so arrogant, it was better for him not to go, if he was admitted, he was not admitted, he was humiliated, it was not good to fight back, and he was not sure of the battle, so he should stay away, and said coldly: "Forget it, I still have something to do, you and Sister Chen Tao will see the results by yourself, I wish you a bright future for your brother-in-law."
Chen Xia sneered: "Brother Jin, you don't dare to go to the list, didn't you say last time, you don't care at all, you don't care if you don't pass the exam, now that the results are in front of you, you don't dare to face this cruel reality, you are so open-minded, and you still want to marry my sister, if you don't go, I won't force it, but in the future, don't call my uncle and uncle in front of me, when you see me, I will say, I Jin Cheng is a turtle with a shrunken head, what do you think."
Jin Cheng saw him pressing step by step, it was really a little painful, insidious, cunning, vicious, and black-bellied couldn't describe the Wang Jiu egg in front of him, thinking that the worst result would be that you were on the list, Lao Tzu was not on the list, look at how you hacked me, I really don't care.
Chen Tao shouted at Chen Xia: "Chen Xia, my business is in charge of your, don't take me out every time to talk about things, you have your own ability, you can get admitted by yourself, don't look for Brother Jin Cheng every time, Brother Jin, don't pay attention to him, you can go if you want to, forget it if you don't want to see it, treat him as air."
Jin Cheng said in his heart that this is about the same, I'm afraid of a fart, just go and see it, and said: "It's nothing, I'll go and see it together, if Sister Chen Tao is admitted, let me share the joy."
The three of them walked in the direction of the vegetable market,
Chen Xia wanted to go with Chen Tao and share the joy of being at the top of the high school rankings and her admission to her, but her sister didn't give him face, she just didn't walk with him, but she was angry that she insisted on walking with Jin Cheng, which was too sad.
Seeing this, Jin Cheng walked with Chen Tao generously, Chen Xia walked in front, and the two of them followed behind, talking and laughing.
Chen Xia stopped in front of a seller and asked the boss, "How do you sell this gong?"
The boss saw that the boy in front of him was interested in this, and he vigorously introduced: "Childe, you are really good eyesight, this gong is the treasure of my town store, it is made of the best copper, and when you knock it with this mallet, the whole neighboring county can hear it......"
Chen Xia interrupted him and said, "Okay, I'll buy it."
When the boss gave him the gong, he didn't forget to knock it, and the sound of "bang" resounded in the sky, and Jin Cheng and Chen Tao were really startled.
Chen Tao muttered: "Neurotic, I have nothing to do if I eat too much, Brother Jin, ignore him, let's go."
When Jin Cheng saw Chen Xia go to buy a gong, he was also a little funny in his heart, he didn't want to cause trouble, so he didn't express his position.
When I arrived at the vegetable market, there were already dozens of people gathered around a few pieces of rice paper to watch the results, pointing and pointing while watching, some people were crying and some were laughing.
Jin Cheng walked in and took a look, the first place was really Chen Xia, the king of the nine eggs, suddenly felt bad, the list clearly said that the top 20 were shortlisted for the School of Medicine, Chen Tao happened to be ranked 20th, Jin Cheng was really happy for her, congratulations: "Sister Chen Tao, congratulations, congratulations, you can be admitted to the top 20 in the country through your own efforts, it is really not easy."
It's just that I looked at it for a long time, but I didn't find the word Jin Cheng, and the names of these hundreds of people are dense, and it doesn't matter if you can't find it, it doesn't make sense to find it.
Chen Tao's face was flushed, and he couldn't hide his joy at this time, but Chen Xia, who was at the top of the list, seemed relatively calm.
Jin Cheng is still a little blindsided, this is too inconsistent with his character, there must be a demon when things go wrong, he saw Chen Xia looking at himself with a smile, and he didn't know what he was thinking at this time.
Chen Xiapi looked at Jin Cheng with a smile and said, "Brother Jin, why didn't you see your name, did the examiner forget you."
Chen Tao saw that Chen Xia actually took the first place in the exam, and he was also a little surprised, he knew best what level his brother was, it was obvious that he had a paper This thing must be true, otherwise, give him a few medical books so that he can't get the first place in the exam, seeing his unrelenting appearance, he was a little annoyed, and said to Jin Cheng: "Brother Jin, let's go, if you don't pass the exam this time, there will be a next time, don't pay attention to him."
Jin Cheng lost his confidence, and he didn't pick up Chen Xia's words, so he was ready to leave.
Who knows, Chen Xia climbed onto the platform under the wall, knocked the gong loudly, and said loudly: "Fathers and fellow villagers, everyone come to take a look, this medical college exam is not easier than the science and technology exam, only the top 20 in the country are recruited, we are in Xinglintang Chen Taochen High School in Xinglintang, this is a great thing in our neighboring county" After speaking, he paused and knocked the gong a few times.
Jin Cheng saw that this guy was unashamedly promoting his sister on it, and at this time, many people around knew Chen Tao, and many people came forward to congratulate her, making her so nervous that her head was red, and she returned the salute vigorously.
Jin Cheng said happily: "Sister Chen Tao, you will become popular from today onwards, and in the future, this Xinglin Hall will step on the threshold, and you will become a famous doctor immediately."
Chen Tao hurriedly said: "Chen Xia is really mentally ill, let's go, Brother Jin."
Jin Cheng smiled: "Your brother has finally done something reliable, he is advertising your Xinglintang."
Chen Xia cleared his throat, and when he saw that Chen Tao and Jin Cheng were leaving, he immediately struck two more gongs and shouted loudly: "Brother Jin Cheng, don't go."
Jin Cheng saw that he shouted himself so affectionately, and knew that he was fine, but he didn't know what new way he had to rectify himself, so he immediately stopped and looked at Chen Xia.
Chen Xia continued to say loudly: "My Xinglintang Chen Tao has raised his face for the medical industry in neighboring counties, but the son of our Jin Taiyi, the son of Jin Cheng who is the loser of the Jin family pharmacy, is also very difficult this time, hundreds of people across the country took the exam, he actually won the first, but it is the penultimate one, this is not easy, everyone looks at the lower right corner of this list, the last place is also our Jin Cheng young master of the neighboring county county, I hope that the young master Jin Cheng will make persistent efforts and achieve good results in the next year's exam."
The surrounding people eating melons are even more lively, watching jokes, watching the excitement, everyone is talking about it, in short, Jin Cheng is more popular than Chen Tao now.
He really wanted to find a crack in the ground at this time.
Chen Tao was so angry that he stomped his feet, stepped forward and snatched the gong in Chen Xia's hand, threw it to the ground, and said with a red face: "Chen Xia, you are too much, I want to tell my father to go" After speaking, he pushed him, he was already standing on a platform, and he almost fell.
Chen Xia said with joy on his face: "I'll cheer him up, such a good opportunity to show his face was given to him, I didn't make a sound in the first exam, I was very low-key."
He said to Jin Cheng again: "Brother Cheng, you won't blame me."
Jin Cheng was very angry at this time, and he really wanted to go up and beat him, but he didn't dare to start, so he was even more angry, stepped forward and grabbed Chen Tao's hand, and said loudly: "Fellow villagers, I know my own level, I didn't want to stir up this muddy water, I am accompanying my future wife Chen Tao to take the exam, she can be admitted, I am satisfied, I am willing to be a man who pays silently behind her, brother-in-law, you say, why did Lao Tzu write the Tao Te Ching" After speaking, he looked at Chen Xia inquiringly.
Chen Xia was stunned when asked, but he still read some sage books, but he didn't say why Lao Tzu wrote the Tao Te Ching, and he didn't pay attention to the stalk of calling his brother-in-law, and at the same time he was stunned by his operation, and said in a daze: "Why do you say he wrote the Tao Te Ching."
Jin Cheng laughed and said: "Lao Tzu is willing, if he himself is unwilling, how can there be a Tao Te Ching in the world, I am the first from the bottom of the exam, for my wife Chen Tao, Lao Tzu is also willing."
Now it was Chen Xia's turn to be dumbfounded, I didn't expect this kid to be so bold, openly grabbing his sister's hand, and admitting that his level was poor, it was really enough.
Chen Tao's hand was scratched painfully, he wanted to shake it off but couldn't shake it off, his face was flushed with shame, he and Jin Cheng pulled and pulled back to the clinic, but Chen Xia didn't follow him.
When he arrived at the clinic, Jin Cheng let go of his hand.
Chen Xia was so angry that he raised his hand and slapped him.
