Chapter 58: Watching the List (1)
Before dawn, the outside of the county government was already crowded with many people, waving their long sleeves, flying sideways, and raising their necks like giraffes to look at the black county government.
Just like when Xiao Yan Song knelt in front of the county government and raised a sign to suffer for his father, countless people watched.
The county government, which should have been serious and deserted, has once again become the most noisy place.
Yan Mi, the bookkeeper of Wenqu Study, has set up a stall here like those vendors selling vegetables and fruits.
I was going to wait for the results of the county test to come out, and I shouted and sold the "County Test Breakthrough Training Manual".
Yan Heng took his younger brother Xiao Yan Song's hand and stood in front of the stall talking to Yan Mi, there were too many people in front of them, and they couldn't squeeze in.
However, Yan Heng saw that Ouyang Xue and Ouyang Lu, as well as Dou Ding and Ouyang Hong, and others were also squeezing forward under the protection of a group of wealthy slaves in their family, but Yan Heng didn't bother to go over to say hello.
However, Xiao Yan Song wanted to go over and say hello to Ouyang Lu, and was about to run over there by holding Yan Heng's hand, but Yan Heng insisted on pulling him and did not allow him to run around.
Xiao Yan Song had no choice but to pout and watch his brother not speak, but then shouted at Ouyang Xue and Ouyang Lu again: "Sister Xue'er, little Lulu!" ”
Ouyang Xue heard Xiao Yan Song's voice, but she didn't want to see Yan Heng now, so she pretended not to hear it, and her eyes unconsciously noticed the basket of food she had thrown in the canal yesterday.
It was a basket of food that she prepared for Yan Heng and Xiao Yan Song, as well as her younger brother and her cousin, because she was worried that they would not eat well after the county test for a day, so she brought cloud cakes and champion cakes.
But she didn't expect her cousin and Yan Heng to have such a big conflict, and even her cousin was directly beaten by Yan Heng, and in the end, Yan Heng left even more arrogantly, so angry that she finally threw the food she prepared for Yan Heng's brothers into the canal in a rage.
Today, the basket still floats in the slow current, but the food has long since melted into the water.
Ouyang Xue couldn't help but burst into tears, looking at Yan Heng's heart full of loss.
Yan Heng didn't notice Ouyang Xue's demeanor, he was now looking up at the day that was about to rain, he was very worried now, worried about what would happen to the book that he had placed here in his Wenqu study if it rained for a while.
Dou Ding and Ouyang Hong didn't notice Ouyang Xue's expression, what the two cousins were looking forward to the most was the results of the county exam.
In Dou Ding's opinion, as long as he becomes the head of the county trial, he will be able to have his beautiful cousin, and he will be able to prove to everyone that he is the most talented.
And Ouyang Hong also felt that only by passing the county exam could he prove to his father that he was indeed the best junior of the Ouyang family.
Dou Ding's face was a little swollen, and when he raised his head slightly, his cheeks would hurt, and when he hurt, he couldn't help but think of Yan Heng who beat him, and he swore that he must teach Yan Heng a good lesson after the county exam.
Ouyang Lu was still holding Ouyang Xue's hand at this time, she didn't know the sorrow of big children at a young age.
Wrapped in feather and white brocade, she is more like a cute little white rabbit all the time, her two big eyes stared intently ahead, but she suddenly raised her little head: "Sister, did you say that Brother Yan Heng and Little Yan Song will be in the meeting?" ”
The relationship between Ouyang Lu and Dou Ding and his cousin Ouyang Hong is not close, after all, Dou Ding forgot to hurt Ouyang Lu except for changing his way to get close to Ouyang Xue.
And Ouyang Hong locked himself in the study most of the time to study and have fun, and rarely cared for the daughter of the second uncle, who was born as a clerk.
However, Yan Heng and Xiao Yan Song were closer to Ouyang Lu because their father Yan Zhun had a close relationship with Ouyang Jin.
What's more, Xiao Yan Song always likes to be close to Ouyang Lu, either sending this or that, so it is not surprising that Ouyang Lu cares about Yan Heng and Xiao Yan Song's county test results at this time.
Ouyang Xue was just outside the mind at this time, seeing that Yan Heng was sad, where could he care about answering Ouyang Lu, so he could only smile awkwardly.
But Dou Ding laughed at this time: "Little Lulu, don't worry, the brother Yan Heng and Xiao Yan Song you said can't be hit, they, they can only be a showman like his father in this life!" ”
"Oh, okay", Ouyang Lu pursed his lips helplessly, a little disappointed.
Seeing her react like this, Dou Ding neither argued for Yan Heng nor the two brothers and asked if he could win, he felt a little unhappy in his heart, feeling that this Ouyang Lu looked well-behaved and cute, but he was far less knowledgeable and polite than his cousin, lively and interesting.
At this time, the door of the county government opened, and everyone held their breath and concentrated, even Dou Ding straightened his chest, and he was now waiting for his seat number to be ranked in the center, that is, the first place, in order to show that he wrote the best text and that he was the most promising county leader.
……
In fact, the door of the county government should have been opened a long time ago, and the list should have been issued a long time ago, but Xiong Xiu, the county magistrate, couldn't make up his mind about the ranking of the two candidates for a long time before he was entangled until now.
Among these two candidates, one actually wrote out the current text he had done before word for word, and the font was neat and full of aura; One of them is that the article is written by himself, and the writing is excellent, the content of the article is concise and old-fashioned, it can be said that the words are only slightly poor, and there is no nature.
Zhixian Xiong Xiu can't deny the articles he has done, and even has to be ranked as excellent in order to show confidence, he even guessed that his articles were only afraid that they would be copied directly by Yan Heng on the answer sheet. Because, Yan Heng has always had the habit of collecting current texts, otherwise he would not have opened a Wenqu study to make money for readers.
But the county Xiong Xiu can not deny that this Confucian boy who is far above himself in writing the time, although this Confucian boy calligraphy attainment is not high, but it can also be listed as excellent.
Xiong Xiu weighed it again and again, and decided to rank the candidates who directly took the articles they had done to answer the questions and most likely that the candidates were Yan Heng in this exam.
And candidates who are not very good at writing their original words are ranked first, after all, articles are rare.
And it's a good thing to let Yan Heng be the second, after all, Yan Heng is also a teenager, and teenagers are inevitably frivolous, and sometimes it's good for him to press a pressure.
So Xiong Xiu finally finalized the ranking.
The list was posted, but the list of the first county test was posted according to the seat number, after all, although the first game was the most important, it was not completely fixed as the final ranking of the county test.
Ouyang Hong was the first to find his seat number, and excitedly said to his sister Ouyang Xue: "Sister, I won, thirty-second!" ”
"Little Brother Ouyang is worthy of being the treasure tree of the Ouyang family, thirty-second, and there is no big problem in the county test customs clearance."
Dou Ding praised Ouyang Hong in front of Ouyang Xue very graciously, and he already regarded Ouyang Hong as his brother-in-law in his heart, so he naturally wanted to be sure in every possible way.
Ouyang Xue smiled and said nothing.
At this time, Dou Ding also found his seat number, and said with a little unconvinced: "It's actually the twelfth, I didn't expect that Fenyi County would also hide the dragon and crouching tiger!" ”
Although Dou Ding said it easily, he also felt faintly uneasy in his heart, and he only won a twelfth place in the first game, which means that unless he is impeccable in the future, he will not be able to become the head of the county test.
Unless he can write a poem like the Crab Song.
"Sister, are there Brother Yan Heng and Little Yan Song?" Ouyang Lu looked up innocently and asked.
