When I got home, Wang's visit hadn't come back yet, which saved Zhang Jie a mouthful, wiped his body with water, and then changed into dry clothes, which made him feel a lot more refreshed.

Originally, he thought about washing the dirty clothes he had changed, but when he came to the well, he was snatched away by the sharp-eyed Zhang Xia, and he was still babbling about what he shouldn't study.

Since someone is willing to help them wash their clothes, there is nothing to be hypocritical, and it is not a close-fitting underwear to be embarrassed, just a long shirt, if you want to wash it, take it and wash it.

I went back to the house, and when I started to practice calligraphy with the pen in my hand, Zhang Jie felt uncomfortable, chopping firewood all afternoon, and the skin on both hands was worn out, and now I felt that my hands were distressed with a little effort.

I wanted to give up, thinking that it would be better to read a book first, and wait for the scar on my hand to practice calligraphy, but when I thought of what I said in front of the two girls an hour ago, I shook my head with a wry smile, found a slightly soft cloth, and then wrapped my hand around it with a cloth, and when I held the pen, I didn't feel that my hand hurt so hard.

Practicing calligraphy every day is a habit that Zhang Jielei can't move, from the year he was six years old, to now there are three months of origin, and it has been almost six years.

The old master has always said that Zhang Jie's words are a weakness, either a stroke is like a child who has just learned to write, or he scribbled the next day to see that he doesn't know it, for this word, Zhang Jie has also put a lot of effort, but even so, after practicing the words for six years, it is still not much beautiful, at most it is decent, the examiner will not deduct points literally during the scientific examination, and it is impossible to expect Zhang Jie's words to leave a deep impression on the examiner.

is still dipped in the inkstone water practice on the desk, even if the conditions at home are a little better, Zhang Jie does not waste the habit of practicing paper, saying that there are many words to practice every day, if all the words are used, after six years, I am afraid that just the paper used to practice words can make Zhang Jie's family return to poverty.

At this time, rice paper is not a cheap thing.

A water tune song is only halfway written, and I saw the iron egg of the uncle's family poking his head into the house, the seven or eight-year-old child, like his two elder brothers, is also very solid, and the children in the village fight all day long It is difficult to solve, but it is also strange to say, this child is not afraid of the uncle, but is a little afraid of Zhang Jie, it may be that Zhang Jie focuses on going to school on weekdays, and rarely puts his mind on home, because he is unfamiliar, so this little guy is a little afraid of himself.

Before Zhang Jie could ask, he saw Tie Dan hurriedly said, "Brother, grandpa called you, and the third uncle is also waiting for you in the hall!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the hairy boy twisted his face and ran away, as if Zhang Jie had become so terrible.

Putting the brush in his hand, Zhang Jie couldn't help muttering: "The third uncle and the old man are there?" What's going on at home? ”

It's no wonder that Zhang Jie thinks like this, in the past few years, the old man in the family has generally decided on his own, basically no matter what it is, the old man has rarely discussed with his family, and like today, he deliberately looked for the third uncle, and called himself too, it can be said that the three people in the family who can talk have all gathered together, so discussed, it is difficult that even the old man can't decide something in the family?

The old man's hall is generally rarely visited, except for the old man and the old lady, and Zhang Xia who followed the old couple, if the other people in the courtyard have nothing special, they will not go out of their way to the hall, as for the children, except for eating, basically no one dares to stay in the hall, because the old man with a straight face is really a little scary.

When Zhang Jie entered the house, he saw that the old man and the third uncle were really there, the old man sat on the top, the third uncle sat next to the old man, the father and son were talking about this, and when Zhang Jie entered the house, he saw the third uncle with a smile on his face and smiled:

"Xiaojie, I am discussing with your grandfather about your future affairs, this show has already been examined, and you will be examined next year, but you are not yet twelve this year, even if you are only thirteen years old next year, you are still too young, the meaning of the third uncle is to let you settle down and study for two years, and so on, your heart is maturing, and you are going to rely on it, your grandfather's meaning, no matter what, try it first, don't ask you to be admitted immediately, just learn an experience first, what the hell, what I said doesn't count, Your grandfather doesn't count, you have to have your own charter. ”

Only then did I know what was going on, it turned out to be about my future prospects, obviously, the third uncle did not approve of his immediate examination, what reason Zhang Jie knew in his heart, the third uncle had been taking the examination for more than ten years, but he was stunned that he was not admitted, if he went up, he would get a person to come out, this is not a slap in the face of the third uncle.

As for the old man's meaning, it doesn't matter if he succeeds or not, after all, he is still young, and the old man just wants to let himself learn more experience, even if he doesn't succeed next year, so as to provide some experience for the next scientific expedition.

At this time, Zhang Jie really hesitated, like the third uncle said, there are three months before he is only twelve years old, and he will go to the lifting next year, not yet thirteen years old, in terms of age, it is indeed small, and in recent years, Zhang Jie's energy has been used in the county exam, the exam, the college exam, and the books he read are also for these exams, as for the books to be tested during the examination, they are rarely involved, even if he sinks his mind this year and goes all out to prepare for the exam, Zhang Jie does not feel that there is much hope for his own examination next year.

"Third uncle, what are the general contents of the examination? Do you have any special ideas? I have to bother the third uncle to talk to my nephew well. ”

When Zhang Jie asked the third uncle, he saw that the third uncle who took a sip of tea without hurrying with the teacup said very magnificently:

"This examination, but there is an essential difference from your previous examination, so let me tell you, compared with the examination, all the examinations you participated in before are the same as children's play, first of all, the difficulty of the examination is not your previous county examination, the examination and the college examination can be compared, and the knowledge you have to master is much broader than before......

It may be that the old man is also present, or it may be that the third uncle intends to show it, in short, the third uncle with tea in his hand talked about the scientific expedition, and his face was solemn and serious, as if what a sacred thing he said in his mouth.

Zhang Jie on the side also listened carefully rarely, no matter what, the third uncle's experience in the examination room is naturally not comparable to himself, he seems to be a casual sentence now, it may be the experience he summed up in several scientific examinations, plus Zhang Jie does not understand the examination at all, so he listens very carefully.

At the gate of the courtyard, a few children who were playing crazy saw that the adults in the room were talking about big things, and they didn't dare to make a noise. Several women who were originally chatting in the courtyard also stopped, and the men in the house were discussing formally, and they didn't dare to mix blindly at this time.

Wang, who came back from outside, saw Zhang Jie sitting at the door of the hall like a little adult, and his grandfather and third uncle were accompanying him, and after glancing at a few mud monkey-like children in the yard, the corners of his mouth hung a trace of satisfaction.
