When it comes to the imperial examination, Mei Xiaohan's first reaction is to fall off the list!

Ouyang Xiu's road to the imperial examination is an example, and Ouyang Xiu's road to the imperial examination can be described as bumpy.

In the first year of Tiansheng and the fourth year of Tiansheng, he participated in the imperial examination twice and unexpectedly failed.

Liu Yong took the imperial examination five times, and four times he was defeated by Sun Shan.

The number of officials in the Song Dynasty increased much compared with the previous dynasty, and the treatment was much better. It is rich and protected by the ancestors and family law. All because of the imperial examination system.

The clan had monopolized the resources of the upper echelons of society for a long time in history, and the emergence of the imperial examination system changed all this.

Farmers can change their destiny by reading books.

"No one asked about the cold window for ten years, and he became famous all over the world in one fell swoop."

Mei Xiaohan said: "I am most afraid of exams in my life, which is tantamount to asking for my life!" ”

The patriarch said: "If you don't study, in this era, there will be no future!" ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "I think, you better think about what fills your stomach first!" ”

Among the scholars of the Song Dynasty, Mei Xiaohan is most familiar with Fan Zhongyan.

The famous article "The Story of Yueyang Tower", the sentence "The worries of the world first, and the joy of the world after the world." It's a well-known saying.

Fan Zhongyan's deeds in his life are exemplary, and there was a story of broken porridge.

When Fan Zhongyan was a young man, he cooked a big pot of porridge to eat every day, and when the porridge was cold, it would condense into a large piece.

Fan Zhongyan cut two knives on the porridge, divided the porridge into several pieces, and divided it into two meals for use.

Mei Xiaohan said: "Studying is not to be an official, it is better to go home and sell sweet potatoes!" ”

The patriarch said, "What is a sweet potato?" ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "You naturally won't know what a sweet potato is, but soon you will know what corn is!" ”

The arrival of the rain not only changed the soil quality of Yuelong Village, but also changed the entire Splendid City.

Quite a few people who have left their hometowns have begun to return to their hometowns one after another. The land that had been abandoned in the past has a new owner.

However, the big problem arose, because the land had been abandoned for a long time, and it became extremely difficult to plant.

Ancient farmers practiced a good tradition of ploughing, harrowing, and harrowing in the tillage-harrow-harrow tillage system.

The ancient tradition of intensive soil cultivation was formed around the Warring States period. During the Wei, Jin, and Northern and Southern Dynasties, a ploughing-harrowing-harrowing farming system was formed in the north.

During the Tang and Song dynasties, a ploughing-harrowing-harrowing system was formed in the southern paddy fields. Many unique lessons can still be learned today.

Now, Mei Xiaohan finally plans to start being a farmer, this time not growing potatoes, but corn.

The growing period of maize is short, and the growing period requires warmth and rainfall. Water consumption is high, and if there is less precipitation and insufficient irrigation water, the yield will be reduced or even the harvest will be lost.

Because the weather is beautiful, it may not have rained for a long time, and the continuous rain has not stopped.

If you hold it for a long time, it will always explode.

In the life of maize, according to morphological characteristics, reproductive characteristics and physiological characteristics, it can be divided into several different growth stages, each stage includes different growth periods, and these different stages and periods have their own characteristics and are closely related.

When the patriarch saw these golden corn kernels, his mouth widened in surprise. After living all his life, it was the first time he had seen this kind of golden bump.

The patriarch walked back and forth on crutches, shook his head again and again, and said, "It's incredible! It's so golden, like topaz, I don't know what it will look like when it's planted! ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "You're really right, this kind of thing is called corn!" ”

The patriarch said, "What do you need me to do?" ”

I need a piece of land, and this land needs to be strictly protected. No one can go in without my permission.

One after another, people from the village rushed to help, this god-like figure. As soon as he came to this village, nectar fell from heaven.

Some people believe that he is a god sent by heaven, and the spring rain spreads all over the village. In the mountains, everywhere is wet.

The river also began to rise slowly, and after drying up for more than ten years, it began to rekindle its vitality.

The new era of Yuelong Village has come, and the old people have returned to work on the land with their memories, they have planted seeds, and they sit in the fields in a daze every day.

Or look at the sky, look into the distance, look at the river, look at the mountains.

In spring, many people's memories of spring have gradually faded away. In spring, the little ones have never felt the real spring.

Bathed in the spring breeze, Mei Xiaohan sat on her own land. Rolled up trouser legs, feet and hands mud.

One era is gradually passing away, while another era is quietly clear.

The patriarch led the villagers of the whole village to reclaim one piece of land after another. They were really poor and scared, they were crazy to plant, and they worked day and night.

One of the best houses in the village was vacated, which was a gift from the villagers of Yuelong Village to Mei Xiaohan.

Such a gift is insignificant compared to those precious nectars.

This building was once the old residence of a Jinshi, and his descendants are now illiterate in a single word.

Such a contrast is a great irony.

When a person has a home, it seems that he will settle down, although sometimes he still feels lonely. But at least there is a haven from the wind and rain.

The villagers were very enthusiastic and came to help clean and tidy up the old house, believing that doing things for Mei Xiaohan would bring them good luck.

One after another people moved into the old house, claiming to be servants or servants of the old house, but no one hired them.

The villagers believe that Mei Xiaohan is a noble body and cannot be tired.

The crops and grains planted are growing wildly, and the green of the village makes people feel good.

I don't know when, this old house was replaced with the word "Meifu", and the decadent yard is changing day by day.

Mei Xiaohan was forced to start reading, shaking her head and reciting a large section of scriptures and ancient texts every day.

Mei Xiaohan always believes that reading can't fill her stomach.

However, in this era of heavy literati and businessmen, it is a special case!

The teacher who was invited from other places could earn dozens of dollars per class, and sometimes he had to take a meal or two.

Many families in the village have also begun to let their children study, the first thing is to live, live well, as long as there are no major natural disasters, the villagers of Yuelong Village will have a big harvest by planting these crops and grains.

Children have also started to read, and only reading can change their fate.

The things that change the stomach are, first of all, food, and second, books.

If a person is so poor that he can't even fill his stomach, books will have no effect on him.

The story of Fan Zhongyan's broken porridge is very inspirational, but after all, he still has porridge to eat, he still has dreams, and finally realized his dreams.

The vast majority of small people have struggled all their lives on their own land, and they can only seek food and clothing.

The planted corn has entered the stage of crazy growth, and each corn seed contains great strength, and after they break through the soil, they stand tall and baptize in the baptism of spring breeze and spring rain.

In the rain, a child runs happily, he has no father or mother, carefree.

The patriarch didn't know when he stood beside Mei Xiaohan again, looked at him and said, "How did you think about that matter?" ”

"Do you want to join the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Club?"

The patriarch said, "Not bad! It is to join the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Club! ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "Isn't life here very good?" Why did you go to the trouble of letting me join the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Society? ”

The patriarch said: "When you reach my age, you will understand that I am old... It's useless! Need to find a successor! ”

The patriarch took out a token from his bosom and said, "This is the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Token!" ”

Mei Xiaohan said: "The person who can obtain the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Token must not be simple, saying that you are a small person, I don't believe it!" ”

"What is your true identity?"

The patriarch said: "You are right, the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Society is divided into four parts, and I am the helmsman of the Heavenly Gate Department!" ”

"And where are the helmsmen of the other three gates now?"

The patriarch said: "The vicissitudes of life have changed, and now the four divisions of the Xuanhuang Society of Heaven and Earth have been divided. ”

The four divisions of the Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang Society each have different banners and develop independently, scattered everywhere like a plate of scattered sand, and no one is powerless to turn things around.

The patriarch looked at Mei Xiaohan and said, "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang will count on you for the great cause of recovering the Tianzi Gate!" ”
