Li Gou will study hard at home for the rest of the past few days, and it can be said that he cannot slack off in his studies for a day, and if he doesn't understand something, he will consult Li Dayong or Zhang Hongji, who is busy every day, and can't insert a needle in his head.

The academy examination is the entrance examination of the national imperial examination in this era, and after passing the examination, it can be regarded as having fame, all kinds of privileges, for the students who are dedicated to the scientific examination, full of thoughts for Tian Shelang, and the twilight of the Tianzi Hall, which one is not rushing?

After studying for a day, Li Gouyu dropped this book of "Shuo Wen Jie Zi", stood up and moved his muscles and bones, and looked into the distance, unconsciously, the sun had set in the west.

"Son, come, tired, my mother knows that you love fish the most, no, I made your favorite braised fish, come, how many bites?"

Wang tiptoed inside the door of the study several times, for fear of disturbing his son, but it was easy to see his son stand up, and finally had a chance, so he opened the door and came up with the steaming braised fish.

The carp in the dish is steaming hot at this time, which makes people salivate.

"Come, son, tomorrow I will go to the provincial capital to participate in the scientific examination, my mother heard that this carp has carp jumping over the dragon gate, high school meaning, come, son, eat it."

Ma Li cleaned the table, and Wang greeted his son with a smile.

It is said that the parents are not far away, but since they embarked on this imperial examination, during this time, the dog is also with the family to gather less and leave more, and now this is going to get up and go to the provincial capital, and the heart is inevitably angry, Rao is mature heart, at this time I can't help but drop big tears into the plate.

"What's the matter, son, the fish made by my mother is not delicious?" Wang was shocked, and shouted again: "Dad, quickly, go to the grass market to buy a few carp and come back......"

"Mother, don't need it." Li Gouyu couldn't bear to cry into tears, he grew up in an orphanage in later life, and when he took the college entrance examination, others could go home and be taken care of by his parents. With no relatives, except for eating some national relief food, he can only face the four walls of the house in a daze every day, how can he ever be treated like this?

"What's wrong? Why doesn't my son like to eat? Father Li was obviously also guarding the door, and when he heard his mother-in-law's instructions, he ran in as if he had been electrocuted, and his face was at a loss.

"Who said that my mother's fish is not delicious, my son likes to eat it the most." Li Gouyu picked up the chopsticks and threw a piece into his mouth, and said happily, but he couldn't bear to cry into tears.

There is no invincible person in the world, as long as you can touch that soft underbelly, whether it is a big girl or a young man or an old man, everyone is vulnerable.

"Why is my son crying?" Seeing their son chewing and crying on the fish, the Li family's parents were also happy and distressed, although their son was lazy, he was also sensible and strong, why did he cry like this for no reason today?

Big tears rolled down to the plate, Li Gouyu looked at Wang's sideburns that had added a little silver thread, and looked at Li's father's rough hands that had been miserable all year round, and couldn't help but secretly make up his mind, even if he worked hard, he would come back with a fame, glorify his ancestors, and let the second elder feel at ease.

……

Unlike the government examination, which only needs to go to the prefecture for the examination, this college examination is presided over by the provincial governor Xuezheng, and the local examination of the university is also in Jinan Mansion.

Yanggu went to Jinan, the road was far away, and it was early, so Li Gouyu carried the big bags and small bags that Wang had prepared for himself, and he came to the county seat like an escape.

Without a hitchhiker, I can only go to the tooth shop to find those carriages that go to the provincial capital to carry on my business, after all, this is not the afterlife, and the traffic extends in all directions.

"Oh, but the dog's leftover brother?"

Zhao Youfeng, who was far away, looked at the person who came with a big bag and a small bag, and when this person walked in, wasn't it Li Gouyu?

"Brother Zhao." There is no idle place on his back and hands, and it is difficult to even make a hand, Li Gouyu also nodded.

"It's a long way to go to the provincial capital, you and I are confidants, accompany each other all the way, wouldn't it be nice to talk and laugh and talk about some poetry and songs? I was about to rent a car and go to you! ”

Zhao Youfeng said with a smile.

You must know that during the Ming Dynasty, the concept of the Chinese was still very serious, and it is said that you are not familiar with it at all, and you have not even been to Jinan Mansion before, and there is a fellow villager who speaks with the same accent around you can chat and have fun, isn't it fast? Otherwise, where does this saying come from that you have met in a foreign land?

"That's what I mean." Li Gouyu said with a smile, saying that the two of them were going to enter the tooth shop together to greet the carriage.

Just after calling the carriage to move the two people and things up, Li Gouyu found a familiar figure again, Ren Li Gouyu was extremely smart, and he couldn't imagine that this person would also go to the provincial capital to take the exam!

"Mr. Lin? Are you going to the provincial capital too? Li Gouyu exclaimed, saying that this Lin Chao is also a person who knows astronomy and geography, why is he going to the provincial capital now?

"I'm ashamed, I'm ashamed to compete on the same stage with my own students." Lin Chao is a little funny and a little surprised, this person is not as particular as those old pedants, but this matter is inevitably a little embarrassing.

Hearing that the man in his thirties in front of him was actually the gentleman of Li Gouyu Hongtang Society, Zhao Youfeng was also shocked, why did Mr. Li Gouyu not even show off his talents?

It's funny to say, this Lin Chaoben is also a learned person who knows astronomy and geography, and he has been praised by the county adults many times, and he is also a little Hongru, but he didn't expect this scientific examination to be unsuccessful, when he was more than ten years old, he was admitted to the middle school, but the provincial city went year after year, and the old man who swept the floor in the hospital test hall recognized it all over again, but the hospital test repeatedly failed and sank into the sand, which made people sigh.

There is a lot of sadness on the road to the imperial examination!

"Everyone, we have to go!" The coachman beckoned, and then staggered in the direction of the provincial capital.

……

The road through the state is bumpy and bumpy, and the bones of the body are going to fall apart, every time Li Gouyu gets out of the car and releases the wind, Li Gouyu feels that the bones on his body are twisted and twisted as if they are going to be broken, it is really hard, day and night, I don't know how many days I have gone, Li Gouyu only feels that the pancakes and steamed dumplings he brought are almost eaten, and he is in a drowsy stall, and the coachman is in a dazzled voice: "The provincial capital has arrived!" ”

Good guys, it's really a big city, thousands of miles high, and the city gate is a huge signboard, Jinan.

Driving the carriage into the city, the huge Jinan city is bustling and lively, it can be said that it is shoulder to shoulder, lively and extraordinary, Rao is Zhao Youfeng, a child who has seen some of the world, this can't help but open his mouth wide, look left and right, a little surprised.

A few days ago, I went to Fucheng and already felt that it was a big city, and the traffic was busy, but now I have arrived in Jinan Mansion, which is magnificent and crowded, how can you compare with a small Fucheng?

"Alas, I'm tired of watching it!"

The two children have a little Grandma Liu's feeling of entering the Grand View Garden, Li Gou didn't go to sigh about the number of people, after all, he has been to a lot of big cities in later generations, and he has seen the world in this era, but he is curious about how the ancient times when the productive forces were underdeveloped could build a metropolis with a population of hundreds of thousands and millions? It's Lin Chao, this person has been to Jinan Mansion countless times, but they have all returned in vain, and it can be regarded as a sad mood and sighing, so he said this helplessly.

The scientific expedition was originally a single-plank bridge crossed by thousands of troops, but Lin Chao was the one who fell off the single-plank bridge, and it was decades since he fell! How did you make him feel no emotion in his heart?

When you arrive in Jinan Mansion, you naturally have to find a place to stay, but fortunately, with Lin Chao as a guide, everyone will not take too many detours, and Lin Chao, who is familiar with the road, led the two to an inn: "This shop is quite affordable and clean, I think I will live here." ”

Li Gouyu looked up and saw a few big characters on the signboard of the store, Hongyun Inn.
