Section 97 Tao Yuchen (I)
After all, they are brothers of the same clan, and it is not easy to put them to death in silence, so he smiled at a few overseers: "Everyone, go and get busy, I will bring these boys back in advance." ”
The overseer sneered: "There is another one lying in the nest, can I bring it to you?" ”
Shen Mo nodded and smiled: "I'm sorry for you." ”
After a while, two men came over with a limping Shen Sanshao, and Shen Mo saw that he seemed to have been trampled by thousands of troops, his expression was abrupt, half-dead, and he couldn't help but secretly say: "What kind of inhuman treatment did you suffer to become like this?" ’
Seeing that there was an inquisitive look in Shen Ye's eyes, the foreman hurriedly explained: "This kid is too cowardly, he shouted 'I can't stand it' after working all morning, forcing him to stop cooking until the evening, and he can't stand up." "No matter how you listen to it, there is a bit of a desire to cover it up.
Looking at Shen Zhuang's devastated expression and obvious appearance, he knew that the foreman must not be telling the truth, but he was not interested in delving into it, so he asked the three guys with blue noses and swollen faces to send Shen Zhuang home, and he didn't even have the interest to teach him a lesson.
After leaving the dock, he first went to Baoyou Bridge Street to say hello to Daddy Yao and his wife, and the old couple naturally didn't agree, and the eldest son, his father, laughed and said: "I'm afraid that your grandfather and you won't be used to living there, and the room here is still being cleaned for you every day." He also told the eldest son to catch up with the car and go back with Shen Mo to move the things.
Fortunately, Xiucai moved with books, a few clothes, two sets of bedding, and a large cart pulled back. When I settled down again, I didn't delay eating lunch.
The lunch was obviously much richer, and Daddy Yao specially stewed black chicken and prawns to replenish his brain. After silently thanking him, he told him not to be so wasteful. Father Yao smiled and said, "Originally, I didn't have the money to buy it, but now I can afford it, so I naturally want to let my son eat well before the exam." ”
Before he finished eating, Shen Jing's unique funny tone sounded in the patio: "Eldest son, is Chaosheng here?" "Shen Xiang said it in vain yesterday.
Father Yao hurriedly let Shen Jing in and asked him if he had eaten. Shen Jing didn't see either, and said with a smile: "I found Chaosheng in two places, but I delayed eating." Aunt Yao hurriedly added a pair of dishes and chopsticks to him, and Shen Jing ate it unceremoniously.
After eating and drinking, he hiccuped and said to Shen Mo: "They have already started to form a joint guarantee, I am afraid that you will be pulled down when you are late, so I made an appointment with three of the same clan, and I will go to the county government together to settle the insurance together." ”
The so-called 'joint guarantee' is that five candidates in the same county who take the exam at the same time guarantee each other, so it is also called 'five children's knot'. If one of them falsifies his or her identity, the other four will be implicated, which can form an effective mutual supervision ...... The risks are self-evident.
In fact, there is another option, which is to ask a student to be a guarantor, which can avoid the risk of mutual insurance for five people, but in this way, the risk will be transferred to the student, once the identity of any child is fake, then the student who guarantees him will be disqualified from showing talent, and may even face prison.
Therefore, at this time, the door of the Lisheng family is very difficult to knock, except for those who know the root and can't shirk it, even the people who send money are unwilling to do this guarantee, so it is still more than five children's mutual insurance...... Fortunately, there are many children of the Shen family, and there are more than a dozen of them participating in the county test this time, and they are all cousins who have not come out of the five suits, and mutual insurance is the most suitable.
When they were almost unlicensed for a moment, the two of them arrived in front of the county office, and saw many white-shirted children bypassing the white-bottomed wall and going to the yamen.
Shen Jing's eyes were sharp, and he saw three students of the same sect standing outside the Shenming Pavilion from a distance. Almost at the same time, he was also seen from there, and after the two sides met, they followed the other students into the county office.
Today is the county test registration, and there are a lot more tolerances in the yamen, with three steps and one post, five steps and one sentry, to strictly prevent students who don't know the rules from running around.
Especially outside the ceremonial room in the second courtyard, there are more than a dozen officials who are maintaining order, and no one is allowed to speak, so that the questioning in the ceremonial room can not be disturbed.
The five of them lined up in the back, looking at the team that didn't move for a long time, not knowing when it would be their turn.
Just when he was a little impatient, the team behind him suddenly moved, and he heard the voice of a middle-aged man with the surname say, "Get out of the way in front!" The crowd obediently parted left and right, making way for a five-foot-wide path.
Silent is quite tall, more than half a head above the average person. Following the prestige, the line of sight was not blocked at all, and I saw an official wearing a green robe with an old face, and a handsome young man in a white shirt, swaggering in from outside the door.
The crowd, which was originally very quiet, couldn't help but whisper...... The white shirt is the color of the child's clothing, so the young man is obviously also here to sign up, how can he be special?
Silent in public and never express his opinion, but he also has this question in his heart.
However, there are also many people who take it for granted, and laugh and say to the angry students, "Do you know who he is?" He is Tao Dalin's cousin Yu Chen! ”
The students calmed down, and they all looked sideways and said: "It turns out that he is Tao Yuchen, who is as famous as the great ribbons of Shanyin!" ”
"How can you be famous for so many years and still be a child?"
"You don't understand this, don't you, people go to Yuelu Academy to study at the age of fifteen, and study under Luo Hongxian, the champion thirty years ago, and one study is five years, and now that he has completed his studies, it is not easy to get a 'little three yuan'?"
Hearing the reason for the matter, Shen Jing whispered: "Brother, someone wants to steal your limelight!" ”
Shen Mo nodded and said softly: "Then you have to pass the test to know." The sharpness in his words made Shen Jing stunned for a moment, but he knew that Shen Mo had always been reluctant to be in the limelight, so he just said that for amusement.
But I don't know that being a person should be low-key, and being an official should be even more low-key, but the imperial examination alone must not be low-key. The better you do in the exam, the greater your reputation and the brighter your future...... You must know that in the Ming Dynasty, only the best thirty-two people in each exam could enter the cabinet as prime ministers.
If you take the thirty-third place in the exam, I'm sorry, even if you treat the official as a flower, you are not qualified to enter the cabinet as a scholar.
Therefore, it is necessary to develop the domineering spirit of striving for the first place at the beginning, so that it is possible to stand out in the layers of selection and become one of the thirty-two people.
Who knew that Shen Mo had just decided to make a high-profile return, and the heavens sent a powerful opponent, as if they didn't want him to be alone and defeated.
