After a good night's dream, Sun Chen was still in a good mood after waking up, and even today's exam went very smoothly.

When he handed in the last exam paper, he dragged his tired body out of the examination room, and saw the crowd waiting there at a glance.

"Yo, our show has just come out!" Liu Mingxuan shook the folding fan in his hand and raised his eyebrows and asked. He wore a royal blue robe today, and a white hosta on the top of his head was in a bun, looking like a beautiful son.

"Brother, what do you think? Can you be admitted to Xiucai? Erniu took Sun Chen's burden and asked nervously, as if Sun Chen would cry immediately if he said something he was not sure.

Although the other people did not speak, they all looked at Sun Chen nervously.

"Uh, it should, probably, be fine!" Sun Chen pondered his words.

"What should be rough, tell you Ah Chen, if you can't pass this children's exam, you can't say that I taught it to the outside world in the future, I think you're ashamed!" Chu Chengfeng said angrily, and his face was still very cooperative and showed a very disgusted look.

"Ah Chen is very smart, he definitely won't be able to pass it." After Yang Shuping said this to himself, he stopped talking.

"Hehe, don't worry, master, I'm ninety percent sure that I can pass the children's test this time." Sun Chen smiled and packed the ticket. Except for the law endowment, he is not confident that he can get excellent, and Sun Chen is confident that he can get high scores in several other subjects, as for passing the children's exam, it should not be a problem.

"After three days of blistered steamed buns and jerky, take me to eat something delicious!" Sun Chen pitifully sold cuteness to everyone.

"Stinky boy, I don't like to eat jerky, you must know that when Lao Tzu participated in the children's life test, he ate corn flour tortillas for three days!" Chu Chengfeng snorted coldly.

"Who made your old man not know me at that time? If I knew that you only ate that, I would definitely ask Sister-in-law Niu to make you a big bag of jerky and let you eat jerky until you vomit! ”

"Fuck off, can you talk properly?" Chu Chengfeng said disdainfully.

"By the way, I seem to have forgotten something." Seeing the person who came over, Sun Chen suddenly remembered that he still owed a foreign debt in the examination room and didn't pay it off!

"Which of you will give me two taels of silver, and let me pay it back."

Sun Chen took the silver handed over by Erniu and handed it to Zhu Qingrun, who happened to walk in front of him, and the other party smiled, "I just wanted to come over and remind me, but I gave it like this, thank you, brother." ”

Seeing the other party walk away, everyone naturally turned their inquiring eyes to Sun Chen. Sun Chen explained the situation in the examination room, and at the end, he praised Zhu Qingrun one after another.

"This young man knows how to be flexible, even if he can't pass the children's test this time, he won't be much worse in the future."

"That's it, I remember that in Liu Ji next to our Linjia Village, there was a person who participated in ten children's exams and failed to pass, and finally couldn't stand the blow and became a madman, and that person just now definitely wouldn't."

"In fact, even if you are a scholar, there is not only one way out in the end, even if you fail the imperial examination, you will definitely get twice the result with half the effort if you use your mind and talent in other aspects."

"Don't you think he's making too much money?" Sun Chen was surprised. A few pieces of pickled bean curd can be done with only a dozen copper plates outside, and Sun Chen paid two taels of silver just now!

"Is it ruthless? I don't think so. Chu Chengfeng spread his hands.

"Brother, people didn't force you to buy it, it's not ruthless, at most you are willing to fight and suffer." Erniu also echoed, forgetting that Chu Chengfeng usually said, whether she agreed or disagreed, she would have to raise a few words with him.

"People have recognized the strange goods to live in, and you are willing to take the bait, no wonder others!" Liu Mingxuan also agreed with the other party to do so. "I really admire him, why didn't I think of it in the first place!"

yes, why didn't I think of that in the first place? This is also what Sun Chen said more than once in his heart.

"Don't be envious, it is estimated that that person was also discouraged after experiencing a few failures and diverted his energy to other places to find out, if you can't pass the children's test this spring, you can also think of it when you participate in the fall." Chu Chengfeng Dao.

"That's right." Sun Chen was quickly relieved.

The group rushed to Chunlan Restaurant, where many people were already eating. Sun Chen looked at it, most of them came out of the examination room, and it seemed that even if they changed a few things to eat, they couldn't be satisfied.

……

Half a month later, Sun Chen and the others came to the Chunlan Teahouse near the county office.

Today is the day of the list, and many people have been waiting here early.

As soon as he arrived, an official from the county government took two large pieces of red paper that had just been transcribed and pasted them on the wall outside the yamen.

As soon as they left, the crowd suddenly gathered around, trying to find the name in their hearts.

Some people quickly found it and laughed happily, while others searched for a long time and found that they had fallen off the list.

The people who won the exam couldn't hide their joy in their hearts, and they each found projects to celebrate, and the reactions of those who failed the list were wonderful.

Some of them just silently bowed their heads and walked away, and some didn't want to believe the result, so they carefully went through it again from beginning to end, until they confirmed once again that they were indeed not on it. It is not uncommon for them to cry and be irritable like thunder, as if they have been hit by an unbearable blow, and they are venting their dissatisfaction in their hearts.

Sun Chen didn't rush forward to check, Yang Shuping wanted to go, but he was also stopped by him. After waiting for the people who came to see the list to walk, he put down the teacup in his hand and walked to the red list.

Thinking that he might not have a high score, Sun Chen looked forward from the back of the list. But after reading all the red paper, Sun Chen found that his name had not yet appeared.

Did you fall off the list?

There was no fluctuation on his face, but there was some eagerness in his heart. Three rows were written on a piece of red paper, and the names of ten people were written in a row, and Sun Chen searched carefully. The far right row, no, the middle row, no, only the last row remains.

Those who can enter the last row are the best among them, which means that they will not only have a show of talent and fame, but also receive a fixed state subsidy every month.

Song Chengqian, Tang Peixin, Wang Xiangyu, Zhu Qingrun, Sun Chen, Kong Siji,...... Hey, Ah Chen, you're here! Chu Chengfeng's tone was full of unconcealable surprise, which seemed to surprise him more than Sun Chen's failure.

Although he had always said that he was very sure, Chu Chengfeng felt that Sun Chen's aura was enough, but the time he had taught him was too short.

If he is given two more years, it is not surprising that he won the first place in the children's examination, the key is that he has only picked up the textbook again for a little more than half a year.

"Hehe, yes, I didn't expect it either! But the questions seem to have been taught by you, Master, and they are not difficult at all. Sun Chen felt as if he was very lucky, and he actually passed the children's examination in this way.
