Chapter 120: New Year's Eve, Rush for the Exam
After listening to Du Wulang's words, Du Balang and Du Jiumei suddenly realized that there was such a thing. It seems that not everyone in the mansion has bad intentions. Du Jiumei and these people are all good to them by others, and they will all want to score three points and return them well in the future.
After returning home, after Yang listened to it, he also smiled and thanked Du Dahu. In the future, if Du Dahu has something to ask for, the Yang family will also do his best to help.
In the second year of junior high school, the uncle of the Yang family drove the ox cart to pick up the Yang family and return to her parents' house. There was no separation before, and Mrs. Du did not let the Yang family return to her parents' house. Now that the family is separated, the uncle of the Yang family can't wait to come and pick up people.
The New Year is very lively, there are a lot of delicious food, but in just a few days, Du Jiumei felt that her face was rounded. At the end of the year, it is rare to have a time of leisure, and when the New Year is over, they all go to relatives and chat with melon seeds.
Yang Pear Blossom and Star Blossom are pulling Du Jiumei, Du Qimei is tinkering with food in the kitchen, and the four of them make some snacks by the way.
I bought a lot of New Year's goods during the Chinese New Year, a lot of various materials, and after many experiments, I was really made out of several flavors of wife cakes by the four sisters, whether it is taste and appearance, they are very good. Even if you buy it outside, it is definitely welcome.
The family ate a few of the girl's home red beans, mung beans, meat floss, and pretzel four kinds of wife cakes, and they praised them one after another. Yang Lihua is in her future dim sum shop, plus these kinds, there are more types.
This year has been quite peaceful, Du Pozi and Liu Guihua have not come to find trouble. In a blink of an eye, the Lantern Festival, although she knew that there was a lantern festival in the county, Yang did not agree with everyone to go, but she personally used a thin fabric, embroidered flowers on it, and made a lantern for Du Jiumei, and the family spent the Lantern Festival in this way.
After the Lantern Festival, Du Qingchen came to the house with Du Changshun and Liu, and told Yang that he was going to send Lu Bin to Fuzhou for the exam. I'll be back in twenty days, and then I'll be able to pack up and go to the northwest with that friend.
The reason why Du Qingchen ran this trip was to hope that the Yang family would feel at ease and the matter of the mountain. He took it to heart and will not forget.
Yang was naturally grateful, his eyes were red, and he didn't say anything, so he gave it to Du Changshun. Liu, Du Qingchen knelt down and said, "Uncle Xie, aunt, eldest brother." ”
A few children, watching their mothers kneel, Du Wulang also took his younger brothers and sisters to kneel down and kowtow to Du Changshun. It stands to reason that this is just a grandfather, a cousin. Compared with Du Changhe, who is in a larger house, Du Pozi is indifferent, and their family cares more about the mountains.
"Get up, get up, we're all one family, wouldn't we see the outside?" Liu hurriedly helped Yang, Du Changshun, and Du Qingchen to help a few children. They are all conscientious children, others don't hurt, they do.
Yang and others were helped up. But I am more and more grateful to Du Changshun's family.
Du Qingchen took Lu Bin to Fucheng, Lu Bin knew that the teacher was for his good, so he didn't shirk, and took the fifty taels of silver that he had accumulated for a long time. Go to Fucheng to catch the exam.
Du Qingchen used to come to Fucheng to send the exam, so he was very familiar with Fucheng, and rented a yard on Erli Road near the examination room, paid a month's rent, and found a mother-in-law to help cook. Teachers and students. It was in this makeshift yard that I settled down.
Lu Bin usually works very hard and reads late at night, but before the exam, he is very relaxed, and he feels that there is no need to hold books. Du Qingchen feels that Lu Bin's mentality is very good, his skills are solid, and his performance will not be bad when he plays well in the exam.
Du Qingchen saw that Lu Bin was in a good state, so he took him to meet a few friends to find out the preferences of each examiner.
Lu Bin benefited a lot and was very useful for the exam. Du Qingchen also did his best to help Lu Bin, handle everything, prepare all kinds of things for the exam, and not let Lu Xiucai be distracted.
It is much more difficult to take the examination of people than to take the examination of Xiucai, one person has a small room, and three subjects for each subject, that is, these three days, eating and drinking are in it, and Lazar is under the surveillance and search of the examiner.
Now the weather is very cold, and it is very cold without a stove in the examination room, so Du Qingchen also bought a big examination box for Lu Xiucai.
That's right, it's an exam box, not an oven. The top layer of this exam box can be filled with pen and ink inkstones, and scratch paper is not allowed to be brought, and a piece of scratch paper will be issued at that time.
The lower layer is for food, steamed buns, cakes, dim sum, etc. On the third floor, there is a small stove and a small clay pot. During the exam, boiling water will be distributed in turn when eating, but when it is cold, the boiling water will cool quickly. There is a small stove, a small crockpot can be hot, drink some hot water. You know, on a cold day, it's already cold, and drinking cold water is simply cold, isn't this the rhythm of death.
The bottom layer is the charcoal to be used for three days, and this layer has the largest space, and you can put seven or eight catties of charcoal.
The exam box is divided into several levels, even if you are very poor, you will grit your teeth every one, otherwise you won't be able to survive at all, and if you freeze and be carried out, you will be busy in vain, and you can only wait for another three years.
The one Du Qingchen bought for Lu Lubin was medium, which could already meet Lu Lubin's needs.
After watching the teacher busy, Lu Bin was very moved, his father died early, and he didn't have a deep impression of his father when he was young, and sometimes Lu Xiu imagined the teacher as his father. If my father were alive, he would be as busy and worried about him as his teacher.
After a few days, Lu Bin fully adapted to the current environment, was in good condition, and soon arrived on the day of the exam. Under Du Qingchen's earnest instructions, Lu Bin walked in with the examination box and underwent various inspections before entering the examination room.
Time passed very slowly, and Du Qingchen waited anxiously.
However, Lu Bin, who was taking the exam, felt that three days had passed in a blink of an eye. Coming out of the examination room, Du Qingchen saw Lu Bin's relaxed face and knew that this disciple had done well in the exam.
In the evening, I just discussed it a little, and it was a good answer. When I went back in the evening, I drank hot porridge and ate food, so I let Lu Bin have a good rest.
There are two more below, six days in a row. Lu Bin was able to persevere every time, because the teacher was well prepared, even though it was cold in the examination room, he could drink hot water and eat hot things.
Speaking of eating, a candidate next door didn't buy an oven, drank cold water, and almost fainted from the cold. Lu Bin knew that this person must be having a very difficult time, so he gave a lot of hot water boiling on his stove to the next door, and also sent some snacks to the next door.
If he hadn't had a teacher to help him all these years, maybe he would have had such a hard time.
The candidates who were about to persevere couldn't hold on, so they held out the last game with the hot water and snacks presented by Lu Bin and handed in the answer sheet.
This person walked up to Lu Bin and said, "In Xia Chen Fengnan, thank you for the kindness of Brother Tai for sending water and food!" After speaking, he shook his head to the ground and thanked Lu Bin. (To be continued.) )
