The days passed peacefully.

Nianfu continued to set up stalls, and Ouyang Kang continued to manage housework, but there were also some differences.

At least their family's broken garden can change a little every day under the command of Ouyang Kang, and Nianfu's rice noodle stall has also increased from the original bucket of rice milk to three buckets, and the business is still booming, so tired that she can't lift her arms when she finishes work every day.

Anyway, the formula is in his own hands, and Nianfu is not afraid of being stolen, so he simply taught the most honest and honest Mo Yun the art of making rice noodles, and started to be the shopkeeper and take care of logistics.

Aunt Xu took the initiative to come to them again, seeing that Nianfu's business was doing so well, she took the initiative to take out ten taels of silver, and wanted to cooperate with her in that way of joining.

Ke Nianfu thought about it, came back and discussed it with Ouyang Kang, and decided to sell her only the most important raw materials, such as rice milk and sauces for the preparation, and let Aunt Xu go to Nanshi to make the rest. In this way, Aunt Xu is more motivated, and even she invited two guys.

Looking at this situation, some people came to Nianfu at a high price and wanted to seek cooperation, but Nianfu thought about it, but he didn't agree. Ouyang Kang is right, everything is more and more valuable, if you really want to bloom everywhere, there is an oversupply, but no one cares, you have to learn more from Mr. Su.

Speaking of this Su Cheng, the more Ouyang Kang understands, the more he admires others. The knowledge is really good, and it is very insightful.

At the beginning of the new dynasty, there were many laws and rules that he helped Emperor Gaoxian formulate. It's like the orderly four major cities and four small cities, like the driving rules of the city gate, as well as the morning and evening every day. The method of beating bells and drums in the four corners of the bell and drum tower in the capital and reporting the time and major events was all proposed by this Mr. Su. And his greatest contribution was to put forward the prototype of the imperial examination system.

Nian Fu knew in his heart that these things that seemed to be almost common sense in the later generations were not easy to think of before they appeared. If Su Cheng hadn't been lazy by nature and had broken sleeves, his achievements would definitely be far more than that.

However, now that he is in Guozijian, he has given Ouyang Kang an excellent opportunity to learn.

The 1,000 places in the Guozijian have been disputed several times by the courtiers. In the end, the exam was set for the end of the year. No way. Changes in any era cannot be achieved overnight. At present, the scholars are still in charge, and if the examination is really organized immediately, I am afraid that most of the places will still fall on the children of the scholars with a higher level of education. And with these few months as a buffer, we can fight for more opportunities for the children of the Han clan.

Gao Xian knew it very well in his heart. The battle with the Scholars has only just begun. The emperor was not in a hurry at all.

First, the three hundred talents who passed the first assessment were assigned to large and small departments of the imperial court according to their strengths and aspirations. Except for a very few outstanding ones, the rest have no grade, which is equivalent to an intern. I only get a subsidy of a few dollars a month, and I will do my job well first.

Ouyang Zhuang was assigned to the Ministry of Industry and engaged in infrastructure construction.

For a corrupt official, this is a fat difference, but for a little Luo Luo like him, it is a stinky coolie. The dynasty was newly built, and everything was left to be renovated, and there were many and miscellaneous things to do, as well as shelters for civilians to prepare for the winter. Every day, you have to go out before dawn, and you can only go home when the light is dark. In less than ten days, people looked at it and lost weight. Tan was distressed, but every time he stewed good soup and rice, but before it was served to the table, he had already fallen asleep and was unconscious.

But every time it was Xiu Mu's turn, he had to come to his eldest brother to sit here, see their situation here, and talk about some work troubles. Slowly getting along, Ouyang Kang and this younger brother of about the same size have a lot of common language.

Don't think that he doesn't know the dynamics of the court if he doesn't go to work, Mr. Su gave him a copy of Guozijian's class schedule, as long as Su Cheng has a class, Ouyang Kang will go to audit. After getting acquainted with each other, Ouyang Dashao, under the encouragement of Nianfu, also began to develop horizontally and vertically.

There are twenty or thirty well-educated Confucians, and they only teach about 300 students in total, all of whom are the sons of high-ranking officials and dignitaries. These second-generation officials who have followed their father to carry guns and fight, basically all of them have become officials, and the rest are all young, raised at home, and have not gone through too many ups and downs.

But they are different from the comfortable second generation of officials in later generations, after all, it has only been a few years since the new dynasty was established, and they have never eaten pork, and they have seen pigs run, and they are all about bullshit in the court, so even if they are eating, drinking and having fun, there are a lot of political overtones in their topics.

And because they are young, these people have no scruples when they speak, and they dare to say any kind of cruel words, putting aside those flashy scum, and there are more or less mysteries hidden underneath.

Ouyang Kang grew up in the countryside, how could he ever see such a formation? This contact with them was really an eye-opener, and he felt that he was a frog at the bottom of a well in the past, so no matter what people were talking about, he listened carefully and hard.

To say that the second generation of these officials have a common characteristic, that is, they love to show off and are good at showing off. That's the same, everyone is a noble figure at home, who doesn't want to be that speaker, but willing to be that audience?

As a result, Ouyang Dashao, a serious and honest man who doesn't talk much, and is willing to be an audience, unexpectedly formed a lot of good popularity.

Besides, he is good-looking, in the words of Guan Yaozu, the only son of the Marquis of Zhenyuan who has been passed down for three generations, "Just looking at that smiling face, the young master is also comfortable." If someone can't get along with him and makes him annoyed, it will provoke the master, don't blame the master for being polite! ”

In this case, if Ouyang Kang heard it in the past, he would definitely have a pimple in his heart, thinking that people judge people by their appearance and look down on people, but now he is much calmer and more sophisticated. Guan Yaozu's words are not good, but he is very righteous. Once you recognize him as a little brother, take special care of him. Some teachers don't have a good relationship with Su Cheng, so they don't want his disciples to come to their classes, but as long as Yao Zu is there, no teacher dares to look at him.

And Guan Yaozu is not a good man at all, he said that he likes to watch Ouyang Kang really just pure appreciation. For this, Ouyang Dashao was very satisfied, so he tolerated his little vulgarity. An only child, he is naturally more spoiled, and Guan Yaozu is younger than him, so he should just let a younger brother go.

So the first friend Ouyang Kang made in Guozijian was this young master Guan, he was going to celebrate his birthday, and Ouyang Kang had to express himself well.

"Don't worry, it's on me." Nianfu patted his chest and made a guarantee, "When the time comes, I will bake a big cake for you to save face, and he has never eaten it." But wouldn't it be too shabby to just give a cake? You see how much money you have at home, and then buy something more valuable. ”

Ouyang Kang shook his head, "He doesn't know what my situation is, and it's not interesting to slap a swollen face and become fat." Besides, where can we give away the real good things? I'll write a sub-letter to him then. ”

As he was talking, a five or six-year-old child suddenly ran in at the door, tilted his head and asked, "Uncle Kang, are you going to write again?" Bao'er has learned several more! ”

"Oh, Bao'er, why are you here?" Nianfu suddenly threw down Ouyang Dashao and went over to tease the child.

As soon as Ke Bao'er saw her, she covered her little face and hid behind Ouyang Kang, "Don't, don't!" Don't pull the rice balls! ”

"Don't pull the rice balls, then pull the dumpling skin, come out and give my sister two strokes, or my sister won't make you something to eat at night!"

Is there anything like this? is obviously an aunt, but she wants people to call her sister. Seeing Bao'er covering her face tangledly, wanting to step forward and being scared, Ouyang Kang couldn't help laughing, "Okay, okay, how old are you, and you always bully children." Look at Bao'er, Bao'er is not afraid, with Uncle Kang protecting you, Aunt Fu won't be able to catch you. ”

"But what if she doesn't make me food?" Bao'er opened a pair of big clear eyes and asked innocently, "Otherwise, I'll let her pinch it twice." But only gently! ”

Okay, well, Nianfu stretched out a pair of wolf claws and grabbed the little guy's fat and bulging apple muscles, ho ho, it's really boring, it's so fun.

"Alright, alright." Seeing her pick up the two soft flesh on the child's face and knead it, Ouyang Kang felt distressed when he looked at it, and slapped Nianfu's hand away, "When you have a child yourself in the future, see if you are reluctant to let people pull it." ”

Wang Cang and his wife looked at the door and smiled, "There is nothing to do, how can it be so delicate?" Sister Mu also likes Bao'er so she is willing to play with him, Bao'er, don't you say? ”

Bao'er rubbed her little face and asked, "Can there be something delicious now?" ”

"This kid!" Mrs. Wang couldn't help laughing, and said with a little shame, "Since he got up from a nap, he has been clamoring to come to your house, but I can't coax it, so I have to bother again." ”

"What's this? It's lively when there are more people eating! Nianfu took Bao'er by the hand, "Let's go, go eat delicious food with my sister, you guys are talking here." ”

Bao'er was immediately overjoyed, and asked again, "Can you call Wangcai to come?" I'm also going to see the senior brother and the third junior brother. ”

"Okay, let the senior brother carry you around twice." Nianfu coaxed the children away, and the adults looked at their backs and smiled, and they could sit down and talk.

Wang Cang is a person who knows how to repay his kindness, after recognizing Nianfu that day, as soon as he came out of the palace, he found her home through Yu Sansheng, and the next day he brought his wife and children, and prepared a generous gift to thank him, so he became acquainted with the two.

Ouyang Kang and Nian Fu didn't expect that they would casually save a child that day, and they would be the descendants of the Langya Wang family, or the son of today's champion Lang.

But it was only because of this that Wang Cang and his wife felt how rare and valuable it was for Ouyang Kang and Nian Fu to help each other that day. Everyone will do the icing on the cake, but how many people can send charcoal in the snow? So the couple really want to make friends, and they are not stupid, so they will naturally treat each other with sincerity. As I come and go, I get closer and closer. (To be continued......)
