Chapter 63: Exam/Strange Third Brother

Outside the Yamen of Pingshun County, inside is an examination room specially built for students.

"Son, you must take the test well."

"Son, come on, I believe in you, take the test."

"Son, our family has no money for you, this is your only one, you have to cherish it."

The parents shouted encouragement and nagging. After so many years of hard work, the harvest began at this moment.

Shinong Industry and Commerce! If they survive this time, then they will be able to become human beings. And to become a showman, there is a reading subsidy of four taels every year. It can be seen that officials do not kneel, and they can be exempted from tax exemption and military service. Gaining fame is the dream of every reader.

"Fourth brother, come on." An Zhengfu, An Zhenggui, and An Zhengshuang encouraged one after another. They didn't dare to say too much, for fear of disturbing their younger brother's exam for a while.

"Big brother, second brother, third brother, don't worry, I will definitely be able to get a good result. Come and pick me up in three days. The young man was full of spirit, dressed in a cyan robe, and he gave people a look of confidence and extraordinary brilliance.

All family members are back off, and students are invited to enter the examination room. It's almost time for the exam. The officials shouted!

The family members retreated and surrounded the entire yamen. Students, began to line up to check and enter the examination room.

The exam began, and the family members outside didn't even dare to speak, for fear of affecting the people inside.

Even after three days, the students will come out. The family members who were waiting outside did not leave, and they all stared at the yamen quietly.

Three days passed in a flash, during which one of the cheaters was caught, and two fainted were sent out of the examination room.

"It's all come out so much, why hasn't the fourth brother come out yet?" The three brothers of the An family were anxiously pacing and rubbing their hands outside. Looking at the pale and tired faces of the scholars who came out first, they were also a little worried.

Or the big brother An Zhengfu was more calm, and soothed: "Don't shake, what's the hurry?!" ”

Finally, when the people were almost gone, An Xiujin finally came out.

"What's the matter, why are you here to come out." An Zhengfu saw that An Xiujin's face was still rosy, so he asked.

"It's okay, I just met the elders of acquaintances and chatted a few words." An Xiujin didn't expect to find the uncle who actually met Han Zhiyan, who was actually one of the invigilators of this exam.

"In this way, I'll eat at the inn first, and I'll have a good rest." An Zhengfu Road.

"I'm not going to eat yet, I want to take a shower and get some sleep first." An Xiujin didn't feel hungry, but he hadn't washed properly for three days, and he hadn't slept well. It's a little uncomfortable!

"Okay, I'll eat when you wake up." An Zhengshuang also saw it, An Xiujin kept yawning along the way, and it was estimated that he hadn't slept well for the past three days.

By the time An Xiujin woke up, it was already noon the next day. He felt like he was going crazy with hunger, and his stomach was constantly protesting.

An Xiujin was eating like crazy, and his three elder brothers sat aside and sighed secretly: It seems that this scientific examination is quite offensive!

……

"Why haven't they come back yet, fourth brother?" Li was staring at the courtyard gate.

"Mother, you've asked many times." An Bao'er has a weak voice. My mother has been asking since last night, and some people have answered at first. Now except for An Bao'er, everyone else is hiding far away, for fear of listening to Li's chatter. Even the big cat went out this morning and hasn't come back yet. In the past, the big cat had already caught its prey and returned.

"My chicken soup has been boiled to the bone, why haven't they come back?" Li said nervously.

"Alas~ it's almost there." An Bao'er didn't want to talk anymore, no matter what question she answered, her mother's words would turn to the sentence when they would come back.

"How did they ......?"

"Stop, mother, I hear the sound of horses' hooves." Before Li finished speaking, An Bao'er said with a look of surprise. When the people in the house heard this, they all ran out. With tears in the corners of Daddy An's eyes, someone finally came to rescue them.

"It's really uncle!" The child's eyes are good, and the pillar shouted excitedly.

"Si'er is back, it's okay." The Li family circled around An Xiujin. I was relieved to see that he was okay. He said with a distressed face: "I've lost weight, my mother will bring you a bowl of chicken soup to make up for it, and I've been boiling it for a long time." After saying that, he ran to the kitchen with a "da-da-da".

"Brothers, you're finally back, I'm almost crazy from my mother's nagging skills." Seeing An Xiujin jump down from the carriage, An Bao'er said with gratitude in her eyes.

"Isn't it stupid?" An Xiujin touched An Bao'er's head a little strangely. But seeing a family of dads and sisters-in-law "Huh? How...... What's wrong? ”

"It's okay, your mother is here with chicken soup, go drink some, your mother has been boiling for a long time." Father An saw that Li came out with chicken soup, and said with a haha.

"Si'er, come and sit here and drink the chicken soup." Li put the chicken soup on the table and shouted.

An Xiujin was so enthusiastic that she had to sit down. Just took a sip of soup and ate a piece of chicken. The chicken broth has a mellow flavor with a small medicinal aroma that melts in your mouth. An Xiujin exclaimed: "It's delicious! ”

Daddy Ann secretly complained, of course it tastes good! This is a golden chicken soup with Codonopsis and Astragalus, and Li is not even willing to give them a sip.

"Dad, I heard the eldest brother and the second brother say that Bao'er invented new food, you can tell me in detail." Anzheng Quandao.

Before Father An could speak, he saw Li Shi and said with a surprised face: "San'er, when did you come back?!" ”

An Zhengshuang felt an arrow in his chest, and said with a depressed face: "Mother~ I came back with the fourth brother and them!" ”

"Then why don't you say hello to your mother, this kid, I didn't even notice you. You haven't been back for a long time, and the little gold and the little silver miss you. If you lose weight, my mother will bring you a bowl of chicken soup to make up for it. Li looked disgusted.

An Zhengshuang felt that he had been hit by another arrow, and said aggrievedly: "I want to call you, I just got out of the car, and you are gone." Without himself in the eyes of his mother, An Zhengshuang felt a little aggrieved. Fortunately, I still have chicken soup to drink, but the eldest brother and second brother don't!

An Zhengfu/An Zhenggui was stunned, what is wrong with these third brothers.

After secretly making up for it, An Zhengshuang felt much better, and glanced at An Zhengfu and An Zhenggui proudly while drinking chicken soup. Some ostentatiously said: "Niang's stewed chicken soup is really delicious!" After speaking, he looked at Li with bright eyes.

Li Shi's heart and liver softened when An Zhengshuang saw it, and said softly: "Drink it slowly, there is still it in the pot." ”

Amber Amber: ......

An Bao'er felt that her position in the Li family's heart was a little unsafe!!

Xiao Li's/Lin's/Wang's: ......
