It is also true that Tanchun will say this. At the beginning, Jia Yu decided to let his son go to the Ming Arithmetic Department because of Jia Zhu, who was studying in Guozijian. Once Jia Zhu is admitted to the imperial examination, whether he is a Jinshi or a fellow Jinshi, all the resources of the Jia family are destined to be inclined to Jia Zhu, and in this case, Jia Lian, who is several years younger than Jia Zhu, must enter the officialdom earlier than Jia Zhu. Only if Jia Lian enters the officialdom first, Jia Yu can compete for resources for him, even if it is only a small part.

But Jia Lian's efforts on the Four Books and Five Classics are definitely not as good as Jia Zhu's, on the one hand, it is because Mrs. Wang has ruined his interest in books, and partly because of his own talent and lack of hard work. So if you want to compare with Jia Zhu in Jinshike, it is impossible. Jia Zhu's grades in Guozijian are average, and he even needs his father-in-law to open a small stove for him to be able to keep up with the progress.

But even if the matter is clear here, Jia Jiu can't say that. He could only say this: "Third sister, if only things could be so simple." It's easy to be able to get into the Jinshi, which can only be found in the story, if you want to be in the top 100 in the triennial competition, where is it so easy? Even if you are gorgeous, you must operate step by step to get ahead. I don't know about other people's homes, but I know about my grandfather's house. The eldest cousin of the eldest grandfather's family also has a son, who is slightly older than his brother, but when he was seven or eight years old, he got up every day to attack books and did not rest until Shen Shi, although he did not attack books at dusk, but he still had to practice swords and martial arts. When he was sixteen years old, he was taken by the elders of the family to meet the ancestors and ask them to comment on their articles. Or participate in various cultural meetings, and run your own name little by little. Meantime. The family is also observing the main examination of the children's examination every year, studying the preferences of the examiners, and finally taking the children's examination when they are most sure. There are three children's exams, county exams, government exams and hospital exams, each exam must be very careful, and only the results of the three exams are in the top three, and it is possible to be the first to be the case in the end, otherwise there is only the qualification of the student. ”

Seeing this, Xue Baochai also helped: "People like us can't look down on the ten or twenty taels of silver that year. But people don't see it that way, especially when you take people, the first thing people look at the articles you did that day, the second is your fame, and the third is whether you are a good student. For the same article, if it is a student, it will be selected first, if not, maybe you will have to wait three years before taking the exam. ”

Jia Jiu said: "Not only that, if it is the head of the case, you can directly enter the national prison." If you are a student, you will also have the opportunity to enter the country after three years of study in the government school. studied in Guozijian for three years, whether it was homework or network accumulation, it was not comparable to the outside. Let's take an analogy. The officials who donate to the official position are not only small, but many of them are also ineffective. There are those who have not moved for twenty years. Although Enyin's officials have a difference between a fictitious title and a real position, it also depends on whether the family gives it or not, and whether he will be an official. The family is powerful, and he can be a person and an official, and he is a real job at the beginning. After serving three consecutive terms, it will be able to rise one step up after nine years. It's a little better than this, it's the official who came out of the same jinshi, although the position he got at the beginning was not very good, but he was promoted every six years, as long as you have connections in your hands and your classmates are willing to take care of you in the same year, once every six years, you will always be moved. If it is a Jinshi background or even a Jinshi and the first, it is even more remarkable. For example, Jin Shi and the first, at the beginning, he was a close minister of the Son of Heaven, and he went around these places in the Hanlin Academy, and when he went out, he was a parent, and when he came back after three years, he came back with a gilded back, as long as Long Live had a good impression of you, he was the deputy of the six servants, and then he was released as a member of the party. It is impossible for a donor to move in his life, and Jinshi and the first, as long as he does not make a big mistake after ten years, he is also a prefect. The gap is not a small one. ”

Tanchun groaned and said, "What about the Ming Arithmetic Department?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "The Ming Arithmetic Department is the same as the same Jinshi, and the speed of promotion is about the same, and even slightly slower. Tongjin Shisheng has been in the same class for more than one year, and it is common for them to watch over each other and take care of each other. Most of the people who take the Ming Arithmetic Department have various reasons, for example, they are from a background like their elder brother and hope to be able to go out early, or they have to give up entering the Ming Arithmetic Department for some other reasons. However, for people like us, the number of years of qualification will be shorter, and it is not impossible to soar if you are lucky. The imperial court wouldn't let people like us stay in the position of six or seven for thirty years. "It's just that after coming out, it's hard to say whether you will lead the virtual title home to eat yourself or continue to go up. Jia Jiu still didn't say this last sentence.

Tanchun said: "Doesn't that mean that it won't take long for Second Brother Lian to be the same as the master?" ”

Jia Jiu was stunned for a moment, but Qin Keqing laughed first: "Third aunt, this is different." The second master is an official of Enyin, and as soon as he goes up, he is from the fifth grade, and the official who goes up from this Ming Arithmetic Department is only the seventh grade at most. If no one pulls it out, I am afraid that I will be swaying below the fifth grade for the rest of my life, but if we change people like us, it will only take twelve years to start from the seventh grade and rise from the fifth grade. ”

Tanchun chuckled in his heart. Jia Zheng's Ministry of Labor Wailang is just a positive five products, if he really said this to this nephew and daughter-in-law, wouldn't it be said that this cousin will be on an equal footing with his father after twelve years?

I only heard Jia Jiu burst out laughing: "Where is it so easy!" ”

Tanchun's face turned red all of a sudden, and said, "I said it?" ”

Jia Jiu shook his head and said, "Third sister, today's court can say that the officials who come out of the Jinshi Department hold almost all the official positions above the third grade, and it is not easy for the Ming Arithmetic Department to go up." My brother just wants to rise to the fifth grade. It's hard to say, though. Sometimes luck comes when you don't want to run up like you are in office. Who knows for sure? ”

As he was talking, he heard someone outside: "Girl, the old lady invites the girl to come over, and also invites Miss Bao and the third girl to go over together." ”

Jia Jiu frowned and said, "Old lady? But what's the matter? ”

The girl said, "Back to the girl, there is an old relative who came to the door as a guest, and the old lady invited the girls to come and see them." The eldest girl was already in front of the old lady by this time. ”

When Xue Baochai heard that Jia Yuanchun was in front of Jia's mother, his heart moved. In fact, he also had doubts about whether Jia Yuanchun had a miscarriage. He thought that Jia Yuanchun, who came out of the palace, would not be unaware of the fact that pregnant women could not eat crabs, but Jia Yuanchun did eat them at that time. Although I didn't explicitly say that the steamed buns were crab roe buns, although I had processed them in advance, the fishy smell of sea crabs was much stronger than that of ordinary crabs, and it was not so easy to cover up. Xue Baochai didn't think that the fishy smell in the crab roe bun he made could be completely removed. In other words, the crab roe bun can be tasted as long as it is tasted, and it can't be hidden from Jia Yuanchun's mouth and nose at all, and Jia Yuanchun finally ate it, it must be because he is not pregnant.

But if he really wasn't pregnant, what about the news from his uncle's house? Could it be that this cousin is framing herself?

Xue Baochai was hesitating, only to hear Jia Jiu say: "Visitor? I see, I see. ”

Tan Chunqi said: "Second sister, what do you understand?" ”

Jia Jiu said: "That's it, you will also hear it from others, it is better to sue you now, so that you don't have to think about it." At the hairpin meeting in Liang Xiang's house, the sister of the Wang family, that Wang Xifeng, actually said in public that the eldest sister lost her virginity and had a miscarriage at the flower festival. A lot of people heard it at the time. I think this guest may have come to hear the truth. You should also be careful, most of them are thoughtful for the big sisters. We all live under one roof now, and the reputation of the eldest sister is damaged, and none of us can escape. You have a number in your hearts, too. ”

As he spoke, he got up first and went back to the back room to change his clothes.

However, Xue Baochai and Jia Tanchun were taken aback. Xue Baochai is better. A few days ago, when Wang Ziteng sent someone to discuss this family matter with his family, he had already said this, so he was not surprised, but he felt that after this incident, the matter of whether Jia Yuanchun was pregnant became more and more confusing.

However, I heard that the way the lost woman walked was different from the girl's. I can't see it, but my mother is not blind, and it seems that I can know the mystery today.

But Tanchun, although he knew that Jia Yuanchun had an accident at the flower festival, and thought that Jia Yuanchun had collided with the nobleman and was punished, but he never knew that this matter was related to the most precious virginity of a woman, let alone that Jia Yuanchun would be pregnant-he always thought that Jia's mother was angry that Jia Yuanchun was walking around and bumping into the nobleman at the flower festival, which grounded Jia Yuanchun - he didn't expect that there would be such a strong rumor outside, and it came out of the mouth of Wang Xifeng, the daughter of the Wang family.

Although he is young, Tanchun also knows what kind of crime it is to lose her virginity before marriage and become pregnant before marriage, if the other party asks for a physical examination, then, doesn't that mean that the reputation of his own children and children will be ruined here?

Tanchun was immediately not good. He didn't even know how to react, so he could only be pulled away by Xue Baochai in a daze. (To be continued......)
