"You deceive people too much!" Hou Xianglin was so angry that his blood rushed to his head, and his two temples jumped and jumped, but people in their forties couldn't wait to fight with their own hands.

Mrs. Hou cried bitterly on the side, "Let the fifth lady come out and let her confront me." She can't be like this, how can she be so discredited......"

The housekeeper's face sank, and he was about to give the order to take people, but a young man stood up behind him and pulled the Hou couple back, "You can make more money if the money is gone, what can I do if the people are gone?" ”

The Hou couple looked at their son and couldn't help but feel sad, "Yu'er, it's my father and mother who are sorry for you!" ”

ruined their son's marriage and lost a lot of money, how could they be embarrassed?

"Now that this is the case, what's the use of talking about it? Let's go! ”

Hou Fangyu left with his father, but he didn't know that this scene was seen by a girl hiding behind the gate of Yao's house.

Turning her head, the girl came to the fifth lady, "I don't want to marry the old man of the assassin Shi as a concubine, I want to marry the son of the Hou family!" ”

The fifth lady was angry, "Didn't my mother tell you earlier?" Young and handsome can't be eaten, and rich and powerful are the most real. What's so good about a merchant's son? Although Lord Thorn Shi is a little old, people have the right, as long as you coax him to be happy, what kind of good life do you want to live? ”

"Like you coax your father? I'm not unusual! ”

A slap on the ground made the girl cry and run away. The mother-in-law next to her persuaded, "Miss Sixth is too young to be sensible, don't be angry." ”

The fifth lady's beautiful eyes sank, "What small?" The old lady is at her age. It's been ...... long ago Forget it, go and invite the master. Hum. The Hou family even dared to come to the door and didn't give them something powerful. They really think that the old lady is a vegetarian! ”

Capital.

As soon as noon arrived, the exam in front of the Taisho Palace was over. Regardless of whether the answer is completed or not, it will be closed. However, when the sun got up, there were already many talented people who could not stand the scorching sun and handed in the examination papers in advance, but they were not allowed to leave, and all of them went to the shade by the palace wall to rest with the guarded soldiers.

After all the test papers are collected, the number with the name written on it is wrapped in yellow paper, and the chief examiner, Ping Guogong, announces the end of the exam. He ordered the palace gate to be opened and the candidates to be released. Outside the palace gate, there have long been crowds of people, and there are people watching the excitement, but more are the parents and servants who pick up the candidates.

The Tan family is naturally among them, Ouyang Jin finished his work in the yamen, and he also came to see it, but I heard that the soldiers said that they had to wait until noon to release them. He was impatient to wait for the hot weather and went home.

Tan couldn't sit still when he heard this, so he specially invited Nianfu again and brought rice soup and snacks. Greet your son. Therefore, Nian Fu was fortunate to witness the grand scene of the first national examination of the Great Liang Dynasty.

Of course, the examinations at this time were still very different from the imperial examinations in later generations.

But. This is a signal that the country is no longer blindly selecting talents from the big families. It also gave the humble Hanshi a chance. If this continues, it will be a few years from now. The imperial examination system should also appear slowly, but I don't know if Ouyang Kang has such good luck waiting for it.

was sighing, and suddenly heard the people in the family cheering, "Young master! It's the second young master who came out! ”

From afar, seeing Ouyang Zhuang come out, a family member immediately ran forward to help. Due to the large number of people outside, it was inconvenient for Tan to get out of the car, but he also raised the curtain and kept staring with tears in his eyes.

When Ouyang Zhuang got into the car, without saying a word, he first drank a large bowl of warm sweet rice soup without any left, and then he had time to speak, "But I'm dying of thirst!" ”

Seeing that his son's face was a little pale and haggard, Tan was really distressed, and hurriedly brought him snacks, "These are all made light and less oily according to Sister Mu'er's instructions, you eat a few pieces to pad your stomach first, and then go home and eat well." Didn't you give water to drink in the place where the exam was examined? ”

Ouyang Zhuang devoured a few pieces before he opened his mouth again to answer the question, "How can it be so good?" It's all basking in the sun. ”

was about to complain, and when he saw Nianfu for a while, he thanked her first, "Sister Mu, thank you so much this time." Thanks to you for giving me that ginkgo fruit, all candidates, as long as they want to leave halfway, have to hand in the exam papers immediately, which is really strict. ”

Nian Fu is not modest, "Just help." What did you all take? ”

Speaking of exam questions, Ouyang Zhuang also felt a little interesting, "There are several exam questions, and the others are just fine, but there is one one, but it is to judge an unmarried woman who was raped and disabled in the resistance. ”

Belch? Nianfu's eyes widened, why was this incident so similar to what happened to her?

Tan didn't have the heart to ask these questions, only asked how his son was okay, and he didn't inquire anymore and sat on the wheel outside. I saw that all the candidates, no matter how well they did in the exam, were welcomed back to their families like generals returning triumphantly at this moment.

It's just that there are many people and cars in the examination room, and it is not easy to pass smoothly. There are several companies that are in a hurry, and there is even a bump accident, where they pull their skin and tendons, causing people behind them to complain.

At this time, I suddenly saw a young and tall general leading the team to rush out, and with a few whips, he whipped people crying and calling their mothers, but they also separated the carriages and horses blocking the road and made two roads again.

"Left out and right in, who dares to mess around, be careful to fight!"

"It's Gongsun Hong of the Dingguo family! That madman, don't mess with him! ”

With the intervention of the powerful traffic police, every family has been honest.

The road is finally clear and passable. But no one dared to go the first one, and everyone was afraid that this master would suddenly go crazy again.

Suddenly, Nianfu saw that the tall man happened to raise his chin at her, and she quickly asked the coachman to drive out and became the vanguard. Someone led the team, and everyone immediately consciously followed one by one, and the road quickly became smooth, and the flow of people gathered gradually dispersed.

When he staggered by, Nian Fu waved his hand at the man, which was regarded as a greeting.

Gongsun Hong glanced at her and nodded, but did not speak, and continued to maintain order.

Looking back again, Nianfu also had to say that this man was really handsome when he did his job.

returned home smoothly, and the whole family hugged Ouyang Zhuang like stars holding the moon, and went to see Ouyang Jin first. That dad is no longer reliable, after all, he is a parent. And he is also the only official in the family, and if you report to him first, you can also get a preliminary judgment.

Nianfu didn't go with him to join in the fun, he flashed halfway, and wanted to go to Ouyang Kang to tell him about the news he had just heard, but after thinking about it again, he turned into the kitchen again.

Seeing that Nian Fu had been out of the country for a long time, and when he came back, he actually carried a food box, Ouyang Kang was a little surprised.

"When did you come back?"

"It's been a while. I also cooked a few dishes for you by the way, on such a hot day, you said I was okay with you? "No matter what year it is, you have to say that you have done good deeds, and Lei Feng also needs publicity to be popular.

Ouyang Dashao's eyes flashed, and he suddenly snorted awkwardly, "What is this?" Sympathize with me? ”

"Forget it, to tell you the truth, I'm actually greedy, I saw an osmanthus fish in the kitchen, hehe, I asked for one under your sign. First of all, you have to eat with me. ”

Ouyang Kang's face was still tight, but there was a touch of warmth in his eyes,

"Just know that you are not so kind! But it's not outside right now, and if you want to eat with me, you'll have to go and close the door first. Otherwise, let people see, what will it look like? ”

There is no need to open his mouth, Ah Qi next to him has already consciously gone to cover the door, and then retreated, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and waited aside.

This Sister Mu is actually really a very considerate person. Although she doesn't know how to cook and doesn't know much about medical science, she also knows that the osmanthus fish is the top grade of three flowers and five luoli, and it is the most supplemental. She specially got this fish, but I am afraid that it is specially for the eldest young master to nourish his body and comfort his mood.

However, the osmanthus fish she made was chic, not steamed or braised in a braised manner, but stir-fried with a lot of chives, in such a hot day, the green, green and white were refreshing and pleasant, and the saliva could not be stopped just smelling the aroma.

After eating for a while, Nianfu pointed to the half of the fishtail left behind by the order and looked at her with a smile, "If you don't dislike it, I will reward you with this, and you can also taste my craftsmanship." ”

Ah Qi responded with a smile, and was about to clean up the dishes and chopsticks, but heard a sound in the courtyard, it was Ouyang Zhuang who came back.

Although the poor second young master no longer has diarrhea, he still doesn't dare to eat casually, so he can't eat the celebration banquet after the exam, only eat some porridge and side dishes, and it will be over soon.

Seeing that he had just eaten here, he thought about it and came over. took the initiative to say hello to Ouyang Kang with a smile, "Big brother finished eating?" I'm going to take the exam today, and a few questions are weird and interesting, I'm just afraid that I can't answer well, how about you help me refer to the details? ”

This is to deepen the rhythm of brotherly friendship, Nian Fu was ready to retreat, but unexpectedly heard Ouyang Kang say lukewarmly, "I just came from the countryside, how can I have the ability to refer to it for you?" You'd better be smart. ”

In a word, Ouyang Zhuang froze there, and he was so embarrassed that he couldn't do anything.

Ah Qi didn't dare to speak, Nianfu had to step forward to relieve the siege, "The eldest young master's body is not completely well, and the second young master, you are tired after the exam, so let's go and rest early." ”

No matter how guilty Ouyang Zhuang was, he lost his mood, turned his head and left, the corners of his pale cyan clothes aroused a crisp wind, but the luxurious clothes burned Ouyang Kang's eyes again.

With a wink, Ah Qi lowered her head and quickly exited, and Nian Fucai said with a calm face, "What's the matter with you?" ”

"What's the matter with me? Isn't what I'm saying the truth? Ouyang Kang turned his head, and the green tendons on his hands protruded slightly.

"Okay! Count me talkative, I'm nosy, okay? Nianfu turned his head and left, without stopping.

Ouyang Kang looked at her resolute back, only to feel even more angry in his heart. Obviously, he was wronged, why did she want to be angry with herself? As for the occupation of the quota that provoked the dispute, he ignored it.

Seven days later, the royal palace in Xishan, a suburb of Beijing, received the big exam papers. (To be continued......)
