"These grandsons are too ruthless...... Must be jealous of my handsome face...... Sizzle......"

In the inn, the fat man Xue Chi sat on a chair, twitching his fat face.

Zhu Ping'an, who was helping the fat man apply the medicine, heard this, the corners of his mouth twitched, I really don't know where this fat man's confidence came from! is still handsome, if it weren't for the fat man's family having some money, Zhu Ping'an would be able to find a partner for this product!

"Okay, you take this medicine back, wipe it once a day, and it will be cured in about three days." After Zhu Ping'an finished wiping the medicine, he threw the bamboo skewer wrapped in the cotton ball into the trash can made of bamboo baskets, plugged the stopper, and threw the medicine bottle into the arms of the fat man Xue Chi.

"Thank you, Brother Zhu." The fat man got up from the chair and thanked Zhu Ping'an.

"Excuse me if I thank you." Zhu Ping'an waved his hand carelessly, and then said, "It's only a few days before the exam, so you can do it yourself." ”

"The exam is coming so soon......" The fat man Xue Chi exclaimed in surprise when he heard this, and then the fat face was constipated.

Send away the drunken fat man who staggered, and it was already after dusk on the moon outside. Because of the curfew system, the night of the Ming Dynasty is much quieter, and at this moment everything is silent, the sky and the earth are empty and vast, and only the lonely moon stares at this quiet night from afar.

To succeed, you must endure loneliness, and there is no shortcut to success. Zhu Ping'an sat by the window, lit an oil lamp, recalled the Qing Dynasty champion scroll he had seen in his mind, and then selected one of the eight-strand essays, and copied it on the grinding paper.

The title of this article copied by Zhu Ping'an is "To the people of the world, gather the world's own goods, trade and retreat, and each has its own righteousness", which is from the Book of Changes. "The city is in the middle of the day, to the people of the world, gather the goods of the world, trade and retreat, each has its own place, and covers the "Devouring"". The original meaning of this passage is: to use noon as the time of the market to attract people from all over the world, gather the goods of the world, trade with each other, and then go home, and each of them gets the goods they need, which is probably taken from the hexagram "Swallowing".

This is the answer sheet of Liu Chunlin, the last champion of the Qing Dynasty, with good insights and profound attainments. After Zhu Ping'an transcribed it, he studied it repeatedly; Then I tried to write one of my own as a comparison, found the shortcomings, and until late at night, I turned off the oil lamp and went to sleep.

In the dead of night, everything is immersed in a deep dream, quietly pregnant with a refreshing dawn of autumn breeze.

When he got up in the morning, Zhu Ping'an washed up a little and went out as before, carrying his schoolbag and carrying a black wooden board. The students and scholars who got up early in the inn and read books in the morning to the window in the morning were not surprised by Zhu Ping'an's dress, and they were all early and hard-working, so they naturally looked at each other and never got tired of each other, and some students and scholars bowed their heads to Zhu Ping'an slightly, and Zhu Ping'an also responded one by one.

Zhu Ping'an walked through the lobby with a black wooden plank and walked along the bank of the Qinhuai River to the woods where he had always practiced calligraphy.

When passing by the bridge connecting the Qinhuai River to the Jinfen Yulou on the other side, I saw several males returning from Wenrou Township on the other side, and several of them were full of satisfaction and exhaustion, and it seemed that they had been working hard last night.

Walked to the river and poured a bamboo tube of Qinhuai water, then turned around and left the river bank and walked towards the woods.

"Hey, that half-old scholar, you take a bamboo tube and pour our footwashing water, but you want to go back and drink it secretly?" On the other side of the river, the two girls, one big and one small, found Zhu Ping'an washing by the river, and couldn't help but smile and tease Zhu Ping'an.

A dusty woman who is not bound by feudal etiquette should not be underestimated, but she is tired of hearing this sentence over and over again.

"Remember to put sugar next time."

Zhu Ping'an didn't look back, just shook the bamboo tube casually, and left a sentence lightly.

"Giggle...... You are also a piece of wood, and it turns out that you are also a poor mouth. The young girl on the other side covered her lips and sneered.

"Little brother, people don't put sugar in the foot washing water, but my sister loves to put sugar in the bathwater, you come to play with my sister, my sister drinks with you after taking a bath, and I ...... cluck."

The older girl was also provoked by Zhu Ping'an's words, motivated but not dull, clean but not pedantic, such an interesting scholar has not seen it for a long time, and couldn't help laughing.

Listening to the laughter of the girl behind him, Zhu Ping'an almost doubted whether this was a big deal, really, this dusty woman's combat power is much better than that of modern big sisters who like little fresh meat.

Without continuing to pay attention, Zhu Ping'an walked to the remote woods by himself, and came to the stone where he often practiced calligraphy, Zhu Ping'an put the black wooden board on it, took out the brush and began to practice calligraphy.

Since the last time I met the old fisher by the lake, Zhu Ping'an's calligraphy can be said to be getting better and better, and he has a faint style of his own.

The woods are secluded, but there are many mosquitoes, "the most poisonous but the autumn mosquitoes", although it has entered the autumn, the mosquitoes are getting more and more intense, sometimes they are bitten by mosquitoes, and they will be red and swollen for several days. Zhu Ping'an wrote for a while, and was bitten by mosquitoes on his hand and neck, which was painful and itchy, very annoying, and the effect of practicing calligraphy was a little worse than usual.

Burning wormwood can repel mosquitoes, but it is not safe in the woods after all, Zhu Ping'an thought that he would have breakfast later, and go to the pharmacy by the way, buy some Huoxiang, mint, perilla, calamus, lemongrass, star anise, tangerine peel, willow clove peel and the like and put them in the purse made by his mother, and wear them with him, and the effect of repelling mosquitoes is not bad.

After practicing calligraphy, Zhu Ping'an got up and walked around and read the Four Books and Five Classics silently, so as not to be bitten by mosquitoes again.

When Zhu Ping'an was silently reading the Four Books and Five Classics, a scholar who was also holding a scroll came to the woods, Zhu Ping'an greeted him from afar, and continued to read his book silently.

Then Zhu Ping'an heard a loud reading sound resounding throughout the forest.

"Learn and learn...... Learn as you learn...... Isn't it true...... It is also said that the ...... song has been looped dozens of times, all of which are nine words in this sentence, and the first five words are read dozens of times, and then the last four words are read dozens of times.

Nima, how does this sound a bit like the one who was scolded by the wolf at night, Zhu Ping'an, who was reading silently, was stunned, looked up at the scholar, and saw that he shook his head and read it was called an emotional investment.

I read this sentence dozens or hundreds of times, and this scholar finally changed the sentence.

"There are friends from afar...... Friends from afar...... The sentence "I don't say it......" is a single loop, and like the previous sentence, I read the first five words hundreds of times, and then read the last four words hundreds of times, without reading a sentence together.

Kneel, this way of endorsement...... What a god-like scholar.

Zhu Ping'an spent the whole morning reviewing the Four Books and Five Classics with this scholar's single song, and the scholar only read five sentences all morning......

Eight shares of the people

Imperial examinations

I really don't know what would happen if this kind of person also crossed the single-plank bridge of the imperial examination......

I'm afraid this forest won't be good to come again tomorrow zhu ping'an thought in his heart when he took his things and left after reading it.
