In a high-walled compound in Pucheng County, Jianning Prefecture, Fujian Road, Zhang Dian was irritable and the book in his hand was still on the table, he now had doubts about the books he had read in the past, he didn't need these scriptures and poems when he was interning in Luoyang Yamen, is it useful for these things to take the Great Song Imperial Examination? He was confronted with numbers and ordinary people in the yamen all day long!

The little maid in green said, "What's wrong with the young master, are you tired of reading?" Why don't you go out and walk the streets and hear that someone has caught a big fish in the sea, as big as a hill? Many people say that it is the god of the sea and cannot be killed. ”

Zhang Dian smiled and said, "Xiaoyou, you want to go out and see it yourself!" Daddy isn't here today. ”

"The master is not here, I went out to visit friends early in the morning, and the lady is in the room to make clothes for the young master to enter Beijing."

Zhang Dian said: "It's too early! Haven't taken the township exam yet? If you don't pass the exam and let others know that my mother and relatives have made good clothes for me and don't make people laugh to death, you go and tell your mother and tell her not to do it, and it's not too late to do it after passing the test. ”

Xiaoyou said: "Childe will definitely be able to pass the exam, but you are a Wenqu star?" I went to the temple yesterday and already made a wish for my son. ”

Zhang Dian smiled bitterly and said, "Will it still work if you make a wish?" I actually wish I missed this one. ”

"Zihou doesn't have confidence in himself? I've read your article, and it's considered to be relatively good among the previous candidates, and there are few people who can put pressure on you! ”

Zhang Dian heard the voice and got up and saluted and said: "Dad has resigned for a few years, I met at least five people who are more talented than me on the way to study, I haven't even heard of their names when I didn't go out of Fujian, one of them is really desperate, the child is not a little exaggerated, the other brothers I really dare to muster up the courage to compare, he, I don't even have the courage." ”

Zhang Yu is also an optimistic person, he said: "Who! Speak it out and listen to it, we can't compare to him in terms of knowledge, but there are people in our officialdom! Your uncle is now the secretary of the Ministry of Industry, and it will be easy to arrange a good job for you in the future, our starting point is higher than his, and good knowledge does not mean that he is also a good official. ”

Zhang Dian was speechless, is there a father like you? Haven't you taken the test yet? You just want your son to go the wrong way.

"Father, last time my father's brother sent a letter saying that he is now the Marquis of Wangbei, do you think the child can surpass him in this life?" This is still not a person, this title is like a rocket rushing up, how can we be embarrassed by our white bodies.

Zhang Yu choked when he heard this name, looking at the Beihou! is still hereditary, Fujian Road has something to do with him this year, but I didn't expect my son to know him.

"If he doesn't compare, your father and I and your uncle don't have such an honor, it's okay to wait for three years, and then there will be no opponent for you, and the champion will not be able to capture at that time."

Zhang Dian said: "No, isn't it bullying people to wait for three years? If you want to compare with the best, I can't relax, the champion has no chance, and Bangyan and Tanhua can still compete. ”

Three years later, you feel like you're bullying people, and this year it's not that people are bullying you, so whatever you want, I'm going to find my wife.

Linjiang, Jiangxi, this courtyard is much more magnificent than Zhang Dan's house, Liu Chang knocked on the head of another teenager and said boringly: "Brother, you are talking to me!" One day, I know that I read like a stuffy gourd, you and Zihou are friends, you look at how lively people are, which ones are like you. ”

"Big brother, can't you stop for a while? One noon, did you read a book, and it was just chattering in my ear. ”

Liu Chang said weakly: "Award! No matter how hard you try, it's useless for you to fail the exam, listen to my brother's advice, wait three years obediently, and let your shameless brothers finish the exam and you will take the exam again, otherwise you won't have a chance. ”

Liu Xuan said: "There is no chance to be better than you in the exam, you see that you have lost your soul for a day." ”

"Stinky boy, give you a little color and you'll want to open a dyeing shop! Is that your brother letting you? The main reason is that the food at home is not to taste, and your brother can't lift it! I miss the braised pork, fat but not greasy, and a plate of cold cucumbers, I can read all the books to be examined in one day. ”

Liu Xuan said disgustedly: "The gentleman is forbidden to speak, give up his studies for the sake of appetite, and my brother-in-law will beat your ass if he knows it." ”

Liu Chang said: "You know a fart, people live to eat, I don't know what Hanzhang will do?" When I left, I should have brought back their cooking recipes. ”

Liu Xuan said: "Big brother, you haven't listened well in the school recently, and Mr. said that he has already written to his brother-in-law and father, so you just wait to be beaten!" Brother, why don't you have a long memory? ”

Liu Chang thought of the same question as Zhang Dian, I want to learn the knowledge of the country and the world, not full of mouthfuls of people, the common people ask you how much tax their family of five people have to pay for six acres of land, you use and the 'Zi said' no, now the master taught them things to cultivate themselves, and the cultivation of nature is really okay.

This Great Song Dynasty has really come to the time when it must change, to see the big from the small, to see the small, a small imperial examination can explain a lot of problems, relying on others is better than relying on themselves, the dream of a few of them to talk freely when they drank and had fun together wanted a few of them to come true.

Han Yi is a transfer envoy on Huainan East Road, and he has a son named Han Jiang, and Han Jiang has never mentioned this matter, because after his mother passed away, his father remarried him after a year, but he also gave birth to a younger brother Han Jin, who robbed the family property with him, and he didn't hate his younger brother so much.

"You've been absent-minded for the past month, what's going on, studying is your only chance to get ahead, your brother is now a Hou Ye, if you don't work hard, you will be thrown farther and farther away by him."

Han Jiang said: "Father, don't forget, I have a credit for the fact that you were able to escape from that disaster last year, you are nagging me here to see how my brother's books are reading, I have grown up and know how to do my own business." ”

Han Yi was also accustomed to the tone of his eldest son's speech, and he said: "Your father, I will resign now and return home, and the rest of the matter is to train you two brothers, how can I rest assured that you are like this." ”

"Don't say it so nicely, and resign and go home, you are forced to do it, okay." Han Jiang's words are like sprinkling salt on a wound, and this salt is still sprinkled by his own son.

Han Jin came over and said, "Brother, how do you explain this sentence, how do I feel that I have translated it wrong." ”

Han Yi stood up and patted his ass and left, this kid also holds a grudge! I can't let go of things for more than ten years, but fortunately, I have time now, and I can slowly resolve the knots in his heart.

The most assiduous is Jia An, who only reads sage books wholeheartedly, and does not hear about foreign affairs, he is more rational than Liu Chang and Han Jiang, and has a deep understanding of his goal in life, plus his background is the most ordinary among several people, so he doesn't need to be urged by others, and he knows what the result of not working hard is.

His mother gently stepped on his feet, poured him a cup of herbal tea, and left, for fear of disturbing her son.

Jia Dian said: "Mother, my father is taking care of the crops in the field, you can send him some of this herbal tea!" ”

"Your father can just drink water, and there is not much tea here, so keep it for you to drink when you try it in your hometown."

"Mother, there is still a lot of tea here, it's okay for you to send some to your father, let the old man stay in the field if he is okay on a hot day, the crops will grow by themselves, he will see what is going on there."

"You just need to study hard, your father is an idle person, I haven't seen the crops grown from the seeds sent by your friends, five acres of land can be planted, and our family's harvest this year depends on it."

Jia Huang didn't know the bottom of his heart, he asked Hanzhang if he could grow sweet potatoes at home, Hanzhang gave him corn seeds, and detailed planting methods, the growth looks good, but I don't know if that thing can be eaten after planting.

"Mother, don't worry, it will be a good harvest, go and bring water to my father! I'll read the book again. ”

Jia An's mother looked at her son and smiled, this child has not let her worry much since she was a child, and in the past, she also copied books for others, copied scriptures to earn money to subsidize the family, and prayed that God would not let down the child's hard-working heart.

What is our protagonist Lu Zifei doing? He was staring intently at the steaming pot, in the pot was the big white steamed bun he liked, today finally waited until the pepper was ripe, it was a green pepper, Lu Zifei couldn't wait to pick a basket back, green and spicy seeds, white radish and green onions, sprinkle a little salt, put some vinegar, the favorite of Guanzhong people, and the favorite of oily noodles is the same level.

Shen Kuo is a southerner, and the pasta is not as strong as Mr. and Wu Pan, Wu Pan said: "Sir, it smells so good, the steamed buns in the pot can be cooked, what are you waiting for." ”

Lu Zifei looked at the hourglass and said, "No, I have to wait a little longer, this hourglass has not been leaked yet, and it will be cooked when he finishes leaking." ”

Master Li was talking to Hu Ying while holding Jun Xiang, Hu Ying kept teasing Jun Xiang who was like a fool, Master Li said: "Sir, if you don't persuade him to let him read well, this township test will be coming soon." ”

Hu Ying squinted his eyes and said: "You are not in a hurry for the emperor and the eunuch, I am not in a hurry, what are you anxious about, there is nothing to say after eating, didn't your little lover say that the beauty and food should not be disappointed?" ”

Master Li stomped his feet and said, "You have learned badly with him." ”

"He's not in a hurry to show that he has enough to handle me for this exam, do you see that he looks confident and is afraid that he won't pass the exam? You should eat, you should drink, you are not as good as the little one in your arms. ”

A pot of white and tender steamed buns came out, Lu Zifei didn't care about the hot and picked up one and put vegetables in it, a few small thoughts, but when he saw the white gas on the pot, he still forgot it.

After taking a bite, Lu Zifei said: "Spicy buns in the morning, oily noodles in the afternoon, what kind of champion is the test." ”
