After Wendenko returned home, he immediately stepped up his reading, and there were still a few days before the first day of the next month, although he didn't need to be in the middle of the next few days, but it was still useful to be able to hurry up and review all the books he had read.

The old couple of the Wen family are relieved to see their son studying hard, they grow and sell vegetables every day, which is a very hard thing, but if their son can make a profit, they will be satisfied, no matter how hard it is, they can bear it.

In the past few days, there have also been other scholars who have come to visit Vindenko, probably also to ask him about the exam.

Because Wen Dengke did not enter the county school, he was not a student in the county school, and there were many people who could not enter the county school, and there were few sources, so they could only ask each other, but in fact, no one knew the situation very well.

None of us understand the situation, they can only guess each other, some people are a little way, so they go to those county school readers for advice, but the county school people don't know very well, and they can't say one, two, three.

As a result, some people were suspicious of the people in the county school, thinking that they deliberately did not tell them, so as not to let them get good results in the exam.

Wen Dengke comforted them and said that if the people in the county school deliberately blocked the news and did not tell them the actual situation, then it means that the people in the county school are already timid, and it means that the students in the county school are not reading well, so they are afraid of competing with them.

The students who were so comforted by Wen Dengke that they couldn't enter the county school felt a great balance in their hearts, and instantly inexplicably gained strength, and immediately ran home to study, vowing to surpass those county school students, and to achieve better results than them in this exam.

On the last day of the month, in order to relax his brain, Wendenko went to the field to work with his parents, and then pushed the vegetables into the city, sold them with his parents, and he also sent half a cart of vegetables into the kitchens of two rich families in the city, and even chatted with the cook for a while, and spent a very fulfilling day.

When he got home in the evening, he took a shower, then sat down behind his desk and closed his eyes, and roughly straightened out the books he had read over the years, and only after all this was done did he fall asleep.

Xudong Town is not far from the county seat, so Wen Dengke did not choose to go into the city to live, he had considered going to the city to live, but he thought that if he entered the city, then he must sleep in a different place, if he lives in the same room with another person, then if the other person has some bad living habits, such as sleeping and snoring, then he himself will not rest well, if the rest is not good, how to take the exam the next day, the test results will inevitably be affected.

So Wendenko decided to spend the night in his own house, and then get up earlier the next day and go into the city to wait, so as to maintain full energy and physical strength to the greatest extent, and strive to get the best results in the exam.

The next day, before dawn, Wen Dengke got up early, and the Wen family got up even earlier, they had already prepared breakfast, and waited for their son to get up.

Wen Dengke ate breakfast unhurriedly, and then washed and brushed his teeth, after doing all this, he refreshed and carried the four treasures of the study issued by the county office, accompanied by the old couple of the Wen family, and walked towards the county seat.

The old couple of the Wen family sent their son to the examination room, and the three of them did not speak on the road, but when they arrived at the gate of the city, Wen Laohan said: "Son, after you enter the examination room, you can answer what you can be, you can answer what you want, but you don't have to embarrass yourself, our family can still live, my father and mother can still work, and we can support you for a few more years, even if you don't do well in the exam this time, it doesn't matter, let's come back next time!" ”

However, Aunt Wen reprimanded him and said: "How can my son fail the exam, don't listen to your father say these unlucky words, after you enter the examination room, you will definitely be able to do better than others, you will definitely be able to get ahead!" ”

At this time, the city gate had just opened, and the three members of the Wen family entered the city together, and when they arrived at the gate of the county office, the old two members of the Wen family separated from Wen Dengke, and Wen Dengke entered the county government to prepare for the exam.

Li Rizhi also got up early, and after she finished washing, she didn't eat breakfast immediately, but stood at the second hall, and he planned to see when the students would arrive.

Because he did not set the time of the exam early, the candidates did not need to come here early to queue up, but from the order in which the candidates came to the exam room, it can also be seen that they attach great importance to this exam.

Li Rizhi looked at it for a while, and he found that the candidates who arrived early were basically those who had not entered the county school.

From the point of view of the county order, the level of these students who have not entered the county school should be relatively poor, and if the level is not bad, then they should be able to enter the county school.

But this is only from the perspective of the county order, that is to say, from the top down from the official point of view, but in fact, the family situation of each student is different, so even if the conditions of the county school are better, it may not be able to attract everyone to study.

Of course, the more important thing is that the county school at this time, from the perspective of scientific research, does not have much advantage, on the contrary, most of the students in it are children of wealthy families, and the places they want are actually the places under the recommendation system.

The people of this era have not yet seen that the recommendation system is about to end, and the whole society is about to enter the era of scientific research, just as they could not foresee that Empress Wu will become an emperor in the future.

Only when the scientific examination system is popular in the world, then the importance of county school will be reflected, and at that time, scholars will squeeze their heads and want to squeeze into the county school, but now they have not.

Li Rizhi asked the errands to bring meals to the candidates who arrived first, and let the candidates go first to the examination room, and those who arrived first could choose their seats first, and after selecting their seats, they could eat on their seats.

This can be regarded as a kind of preferential treatment for the candidates who came first.

After about two quarters of an hour, the students of the county school came one after another, and these students were basically from good families, at least they were also wealthy.

And most of the students think that their level is not bad, at least they collectively despise those candidates who are not county schools, and think that candidates like Wendenko are all wild roads, and what can the wild road readers have?

Waiting for the moment before the specified examination time, Li Rizhi ordered the door to be closed, and even if any more candidates came, they would not be allowed to come in.

The county government of Qianfeng County is newly repaired, and the place is very spacious, Li Rizhi took out a whole side courtyard and used it as an examination room for the candidates, and the candidates came in total, about 300, less than 400 people.

However, in terms of age, the candidates are still young, such as the candidates over 50 years old are basically gone, and the candidates over 40 years old are also pitiful.

Most of the candidates are in their twenties or thirties, but there are also fifteen or sixteen years old.

As for the level of these candidates' essays, it can only be known after the exam.
