"I know who wrote it!"

Guo Shanchang said with a smile.

Having said that, he was slightly embarrassed on his face, and his expression was complicated.

Mr. Zhang was stunned: "You know? Lao Guo, we can't cheat. ”

Although this old guy is the chief of the mountain, but the century-old reputation of the Shan Academy cannot be easily damaged, if the mountain chief can casually leak the topic, then it will be repaid! They're going to have to be poked in the back, too!

Guo Shanchang rolled his eyes: "What do you think!" He sighed and gently opened the seal, and saw a line of clear and beautiful regular script written on it.

Qi County, Zhou Village, Hongchen.

Guo Shanchang: "......" He only knew that it was a little girl, but he didn't expect it to be a little girl from Zhou Village.

Many gentlemen were stunned.

These six words are clear, but how can such an article be written by an unknown person? It's still a ...... Village girl!

"It turned out to be her."

"I didn't expect her to really have this ability, I thought she was just here to have a long experience!"

A few of the new gentlemen smiled when they saw that it was Hongchen, and they all gathered together and muttered, thinking that they would go back and ask the young lady to have a good treat.

Guo Shanchang and his entourage were confused.

"Mr. Wang, Mr. Sun, do you know this student? Could it be some young lady from the capital? ”

But the hometown is written in Zhou Village!

Hongchen is a bit famous in places like Jiangjiazhuang and Zhoucun, and he knows a lot, but he is not famous outside, after all, the traffic environment of the Zhou Dynasty is not very good, and they are a small place. The news is not so easy to spread, and these gentlemen belong to the academy and do not go out easily, so naturally they don't know each other.

They don't know each other, but now there is a group of foreign colleagues who are quite familiar, and it is no wonder that Mr. Guo thinks too much.

“…… It's not, it's not. ”

Mr. Wang snickered, "She is an orphan girl in Zhou Village, who opened a teahouse on Cangqing Mountain, and the tea in it is not bad." We often go for a drink. ”

"Hmm. Whether it's food, I love to eat the baked buns in that place, which are fragrant and crispy, which can fill my stomach and satisfy my cravings! ”

It's all a mess.

It's just that I heard that the girl opened a teahouse. Guo Shanchang and the others muttered in their hearts. The Zhou Dynasty was quite tolerant of merchants. But everyone still stays away from business, after all, it's not decent.

How good can a businesswoman be in terms of knowledge? It is impossible to get a good teacher to teach. Besides, isn't she still an orphan girl?

"Even if her other grades are not good, I will accept this student."

Guo Shanchang made a decision.

This person never thought that people might participate in the next assessment for another purpose, and he didn't plan to study in their academy at all.

Of course, it is probably impossible for any gentleman to think of it.

In a blink of an eye, it was the day of the calligraphy and painting exam.

In the past, such an assessment was that the gentlemen who taught calligraphy and painting walked over to see, and the other gentlemen didn't even go at all, but this time Guo Shanchang walked over early in the morning, planning to meet the little girl in advance, and there were a few questions to ask.

After all, the time for the essay is limited, and he can feel the things written by the other party, and some places are also superficial, and it is a little unfinished, which makes him scratch his heart and liver, and he can't sleep well for several nights, if he is not afraid that others will say that the examiner is unfair, he will come to visit in person.

Before the sun rose, there was already a sea of people in front of the Yan Shan Academy.

Especially for candidates from other places, it is better to arrive before dawn, and it is better to verify your identity and wait in the academy a little earlier than to rush later.

Guo Shanchang specially told the person in charge of verifying the registration at the door to call him as soon as Hongchen came, and he himself went back to the house to read and wait.

Wait, wait, wait, still can't sit still, read two pages of the book and go over to take a look, I always feel that time flies very slowly.

When it was dawn, most of the candidates entered the gate, and Guo Shanchang also came out and went around seventeen or eighteen times, but Hongchen hadn't come yet.

"You don't plan to come, do you?"

Guo Shanchang muttered in his stomach, a little nervous, and hurriedly told the two students who were starting to feel hot and impatient, and asked them to pay attention and be careful.

Mr. Zhang, they couldn't help but shake their heads when they saw him so restless, and after a while, the mountain chief actually put on his clothes and planned to go to Zhou Village, which made Mr. Zhang cry and laugh, and hurriedly stopped.

"What are you doing here? How can there be candidates who don't come to find it themselves, so that others hear it and don't know how to figure it out. ”

"Oh, wasn't I worried that she wouldn't come to the test?"

Guo Shanchang frowned.

This kind of thing has not happened before, I remember more than ten years ago, there was also a candidate who came to the school for the exam, or went to the final assessment of the exam, and the results were outstanding, and many examiners were suppressed at that time, and they all agreed that it was okay for improper students, and they could directly participate in the imperial examination, and maybe they could win the championship in one fell swoop.

As a result, people were halfway through the exam, waved their sleeves and disappeared, and finally checked, those who came from the capital went back to the capital, and said that they couldn't let the Guozijian fool people away.

At that time, the mountain chief was not Lao Guo, but Mr. Fang Qingfang, who was so angry that Mr. Fang had been chattering for three years, and he would be sad when he mentioned it.

It's just that it seems that the candidate has disappeared since then, Mr. Fang has been looking for a long time but has not found it, and then he doesn't know when he started to mention it again, even in the academy.

Now that I can't see other people's Hongchen, who knows if I suddenly don't want to come, Guo Shanchang's anxiety is not completely unreasonable.

Dressed neatly, Lao Guo was about to go driving, and then Miss Hongchen sat in the car and swayed to the door.

After looking at the time, Hongchen first asked people to buy some millet porridge, and asked for a piece of Hu cake, and then two small pickles.

There are many stalls selling all kinds of snacks in front of the academy, buy and chew slowly, wipe your hands after eating, let people take water to rinse your mouth, and when you look up, you can see an old man with a tangled face, a white beard and a curled staring at him, although the other party's eyes seem to be a little fierce, but Hongchen respects the old and loves the young, and still nodded politely at the old man, then leaned on the car and closed his eyes, ready to squint for a while.

Guo Shanchang: "......"

glared twice, and saw that the little girl ignored him, so angry that she turned her head and rushed back, grabbed the teapot and poured two sips, and snorted angrily: "Really, how can this be reasonable, how can this be reasonable!" If you don't take our assessment seriously, you can be so contemptuous! Hmph, I'll see what she can do! ”

"Poof!"

Mr. Zhang laughed - he was suffering from gains and losses just now, and he was afraid that people would not come, so he wanted to rush over and beg others to take the test, and he was angry again!

Lao Guo glared angrily.

"Okay, okay, I'll be strict with her when I read the papers, if she can't draw Shuangli's level, I will definitely not allow her to pass!"

Mr. Zhang is a teacher of calligraphy and painting, a good hand in calligraphy, very famous outside, any calligraphy and painting can be sold at least a hundred taels of silver.

Of course, he doesn't sell paintings, he just writes a few once in a while and gives them away.

As soon as he said this, Lao Guo was deflated: "Shuangli is from our Great Zhou Dynasty, what is she like to compare with others!" ”

Mr. Zhang smiled even more.

Hongchen finally rested over there, well, it should be said that the exam time was approaching, so she got out of the car and entered the exam room.

This time, it was a live painting, and the students who participated in the final assessment finally met officially.

Hongchen looked at Xiaoying and Hong Wenbin below.

Fang Xiaoying was really born very well, her body is slightly plump and round, her face is like a goose egg, her appearance is dignified and beautiful, she belongs to the kind of appearance that both elders and boys like very much, and she is very good at making friends.

In a short period of time, she had mingled with the people around her, and those male students did not look down on her in the slightest.

As for the other little girl, looking thin and weak, with a slightly dark complexion, she has long become her little tail, and she is obviously very admired.

A girl who has the confidence to participate in the final assessment is definitely not the kind of person who is easy to fool, and now that Fang Xiaoying can accept her, it is obvious that it is indeed unusual.

As for Hong Wenbin, he is a little ordinary, he belongs to the kind of appearance that can't be picked out when thrown into the crowd, and he is a little mean between the corners of his eyes and eyebrows.

Hongchen was looking at others, and others were also looking at her.

She is obviously a very conspicuous category among the candidates in this year.

As soon as Hong Wenbin saw her, he walked over, swept his eyes up and down, and said softly: "You are Jiang Hongchen?" ”

"My name is Hongchen, and I no longer have the surname Jiang."

Hongchen raised her eyebrows in surprise, she didn't expect that this Hong Gongzi was obviously a foreigner, and he still knew about checking his own news.

Apparently the attention of the others was also focused, and they looked at him vaguely.

Hong Wenbin didn't care at all, and shook his head: "I heard that you went out to pretend to be a ghost and deceive people before the exam?" Although you are a woman, since you want to come to the academy to study, you must always have integrity, if you have no character......

Before he could finish speaking, Hongchen turned his head and turned away, all as if he didn't exist.

"Hey, as a woman, you must be cautious, when communicating with a gentleman, if you see a long-tongued woman who is uninformed and likes to talk nonsense, you must not speak, and you will lower your grade."

After saying that, Hongchen left without looking back, not giving the other party a chance to refute at all.

Hong Wenbin was stunned, his face turned red, obviously he didn't expect a girl to be so rude.

He has done such a preemptive thing more than once before, and he can generally make the other party speechless, ashamed, or he will be so angry that he will jump to his feet, anyway, his heart will not be peaceful for a long time, and he will not accept the offer at all like this, and he will not even pay attention to it, it is the first time he has met him.

Many of the candidates laughed.

There are not many people who are obviously waiting to see Hong Wenbin.

He wanted to say anything more, but the examiner was already in place, and the exam was about to start, so he had to give up.

This exam is not as difficult as the test strategy, and the general calligraphy and painting exam will not deliberately make things difficult, as long as you have studied for a few years, you can get a good score, but the comments are usually very scathing.

The collection of works for the calligraphy and painting examination of the Yanshan Academy has almost become the fashion of Qixian County, and the more novel and mean the comments, the more popular they are. (To be continued......)
