Over there, Leader Zhao happily hid the silver ticket, thinking about using it when it was urgent. Otherwise, in this place, there is not even a person to ask for help, and once something happens, at least it is not blind with empty hands. Here, Xiaohu happened to meet Li Darttou in Fucheng, and couldn't help but talk to him about Leader Zhao: "Big brother! Do you remember the Zhao leader who sold salt in Jiangnan? ”

"Remember! I heard that the Zhao family, a salt merchant in Jiangnan, also had an accident, but is it his family? ”

Xiaohu looked at Li Darttou in surprise: "You also know this?" I thought you wouldn't have a chance to know when you're busy all year round! I got the news and went to send him, didn't you see Leader Zhao, who used to speak with a loud voice, and the strength that the king of heaven and Lao Tzu was not afraid of, now there is no at all. I asked him if he was in good health, but had he ever been reprimanded with a rod? Where have you been hurt? I asked him what he meant, I wanted to get some medicine for him. Who knew that he was so frightened that he waved his hand and didn't let me ask, and he craned his neck to look east and west, for fear that someone would eavesdrop. Ay! Seeing him like that, I can't feel sorry! ”

Li Darttou stretched out his hand and patted Xiaohu's shoulder, sighed and said, "Don't feel uncomfortable, he is a good fortune teller, and I know you are willing to help him." What they did was originally to walk on the tip of the knife and play with fire, and it was impossible not to lose their feet, but it was only a matter of time! You can't feel sorry for that. Ay! By the way, I just saw the reed-swinging painting of your poster. Your reed swing is really good to be cleaned by your brother, and when you open it to the public, if I don't go out, I will take your sister-in-law and nephews and nieces over to see it. ”

Speaking of the reeds, Xiaohu's mood immediately soared: "Okay! My daughter-in-law said. In the early stage, we should do publicity in the surrounding cities for a period of time, and wait until April and May next year, when the flowers are red and willow green, which is the time when the scenery is the most beautiful. This will also keep visitors entertaining for a few days. Let's see if April or May is empty! Actually! I think it's already very good-looking now, but my daughter-in-law has to say that it won't be open to the public until Xiaolong comes back after the exam next year. said that this was built by Xiaolong, of course, he had to be present to preside over it. ”

Li Dart nodded and agreed: "My brother-in-law's idea is reasonable!" He then said regretfully: "Why didn't Xiaolong participate in the first two sessions of the test?" If you want to arrange an official position as soon as possible, I'm afraid you won't have as good luck as the previous two periods. ”

Xiaohu smiled helplessly and replied, "Who said it wasn't!" It's just that Xiaolong's personality is more like his sister-in-law. If he didn't do anything, he wouldn't have the heart to do anything else. When it was time for the last exam, I thought about taking things over. asked him to take the exam, but he was reluctant to do it himself. His sister-in-law was afraid that he would delay this examination, so she hurriedly increased the number of people and tools. Finally got him at the beginning of the year. It's done. Otherwise, I'm afraid he will be able to hold on to the exam next year! ”

Li Darttou shook his head and said with a little regret: "Your younger brother has a beginning and an end to things, which is indeed good." It's a pity that I can't distinguish between priorities and priorities! The most important thing for him at the moment is to be admitted to the Jinshi and not to be the reed. ”

Xiaohu just smiled and didn't speak again, in fact, he and his daughter-in-law have the same thoughts, although he really hopes that his younger brother will achieve something in the scientific examination, but he hopes that his younger brother can do what he likes. The family already has Anzi admitted to the Jinshi examination, and has been assigned an official position. In the past few years, achievements have been made, and it no longer matters whether Xiaolong has to be a jinshi or an official. Merely. Thinking that Xiaolong has come this far, it is a bit unbearable for him to pay for so many years if he doesn't enter the test.

In the last period, Anzi and several people in the town went to participate in the examination and the palace examination, Zhang Haoyu, who won the first place in the township examination, only won the third place in the examination, but he did not expect that in the palace examination, the emperor would appoint him as the champion. Anzi's ranking is quite pitiful, there are more than 20 when he will take the exam, and he is only in the middle of the top three among the tribute students appointed by the emperor during the palace exam, and he belongs to the same Jinshi background. It's a little embarrassing to say, but their emperor's protégés are all in good fate, because the officialdom turmoil has just started, and the momentum is a bit fierce, and they have taken down a lot of local officials at once. These Jinshi and Tongjinshi can just fill up, because they don't give gifts, find people, or wait for the above arrangements because of the embarrassing background of Tongjinshi.

In the last period, there were more than a dozen people in the town who went to participate in the examination and the palace examination, because in the previous examination, all the students of Director Shi were successful, and one of them was the champion hand-picked by himself, and the emperor only learned about it later. So this time he paid special attention, but he didn't ask anyone openly, until he was ten tribute students in this issue of the twelve people who were examined, and he was even more convinced of Director Shi in his heart. This is really focused on teaching students, and if there are other selfish motives, this result will never be achieved. However, even if he valued Shi Changyun very much, he did not give the champion of this issue to Director Shi's students for personal gain because of his own preferences, and still ordered one first-class tanhua and two second-class students from Director Shi's students according to their actual results, and the latter were all Tongjinshi.

Among the Wang family's fellow jinshi, there are two of them ranked very low, and at this time in the officialdom, the grade of the officials who were beaten down is getting higher and higher, and the same jinshi is not qualified to take over, and those who are behind this kind of ranking have no chance. They can only wait, or find a way to join a senior official as a subordinate, so as to earn a chance to fill the vacancy in the first month. However, Director Shi's two students did not think about taking refuge in others, nor did they wait. They actually went to Wuju to register and wanted to participate in the winter martial arts test. I didn't expect these two guys to be quite powerful, one won the champion and the other won the third place, if it weren't for the fact that these two felt that their own family members were unwilling to get started, it was very likely that one or two places would be packaged.

I don't know if Xiaolong has any pressure among so many peers with good grades in front of him? Xiaohu has always been worried about whether Xiaolong can be admitted to the Jinshi, he is worried that Xiaolong should not be pressured because the previous few are too good, so he is reluctant to take the examination.

When he got home, he thought about it for a long time and talked to his daughter-in-law about worrying about his brother's pressure: "Daughter-in-law! You said, Xiaolong pushed again and again and didn't want to take the exam, could it be because Zhang Haoyu and they all did too well in the exam, and he was afraid that we would be disappointed if he didn't do well in the exam, which was too much pressure? ”

As soon as Erya heard this, she immediately paid attention to it, yes! She just wanted to let Xiaolong have practical experience, but she didn't think that his pressure would also increase.

When Xiaolong came back from the history curator of the town school in the evening, Xiaohu immediately dragged his younger brother into his brother's room and asked him if he was very stressed about the exam? Are you worried that your brother and sister-in-law will be disappointed or something, and you have made a good guess.

Xiaolong replied with tears and laughter: "Brother! Of course, there is pressure, but it is not as you say. They did well in the exam, but it had nothing to do with whether I did well or not. Our exams test what everyone has learned, thinks and perceived, and even if there is a competition between candidates and candidates, it is also a competition between candidates in the same field, not with candidates in the early stage. Elder brother! You and sister-in-law can rest assured, I am no longer a teenager, and my attitude towards things will not be so shallow. ”

Xiaohu looked at his younger brother, who had grown up, and nodded. Indeed, this younger brother has grown up, if he hadn't taken the exam yet, he should have decided to marry at this time. I'm really thinking too much!

Xiaohu, who went to his heart, happily put his arm on his brother's right arm, and went out of the room with his brother. happily beckoned the nurse to serve the dishes and chopsticks together, and prepared to eat dinner.

Xiaolong, who was lying on the bed at night, didn't fall asleep for half a day, his brother's feeling was not wrong, he did feel a lot of pressure on the champion and Tanhua in front of him. What I persuaded my brother was just a pretext, but I didn't expect that it was this excuse that went to my heart disease all along. Oh, yes! Even if it's a competition, it's a competition with the same candidates, why am I always entangled in the former champion and the former detective? It's really dizzy.

Xiaolong, who had thought clearly, suddenly felt that his mind had cleared up, and his mood was unusually relaxed and happy. Xiaolong, who has figured out what is on his mind, has also become positive in his attitude towards preparing for the exam. While studying with Director Shi, he was preparing his luggage to go to the capital.

Erya saw that Xiaolong was packing up his clothes or something, and he didn't make a fuss. In the past few years, Xiaolong has been in charge of big things on the reed side, although he brought people over, but Xiaolong did not rely on others for everything, and his life has always been taken care of by himself. Even sometimes the dirty clothes were not left for Lai Mingxun's grandmother to wash, and they were all washed by themselves. However, she had something else to say: "Little Dragon! Wen Chao and them, they have long said that they will send you to the capital when you take the exam. I thought that you would go to the exam this time and our whole family would go over together, and your brother and I would be able to take care of you, and at the same time let the children see the face of the capital. ”

It was really nice for the family to accompany him to the capital, but now this house is different from before, the stall is so big, can it go? "Sister-in-law! You're all gone, what should you do with so much going on in this house? ”

"Hey! The people in charge are there! If I had to be here in everything, who would be able to take care of such a big family business? When you were in charge of the reeds before, didn't you often walk for a long time, and those people still did their jobs well?! ”

Xiaolong was secretly happy, but he didn't want his sister-in-law to see that he actually wanted his brother, sister-in-law and nephews to send him to the capital, so he pretended to be very indifferent and nodded. said: "What my sister-in-law said is also right, if you have to watch everything by yourself, then there is no point in raising so many managers." ”

Erya saw that Xiaolong was willing for their family to send him to the capital, so he continued: "If you have no opinion, then we will wait until the mechanical garment factory is motivated before leaving." Okay? ”

Xiaolong pressed the surprise and hurriedly replied: "Okay! I'm not in a hurry! (To be continued......)
