Chapter 103: On the Road

The third uncle is a person who can enjoy it very much, and it was not until this moment that Zhang Jie knew why the third uncle had to work hard to accumulate a few years of money before he could spend it alone every time he went to take the exam.

Naturally, students rush to take the exam, what they want is that magnificent, the road is long, and walking is naturally insulting, so a carriage is essential!

Of course, if it is just a family, from the county seat to the provincial capital, just entangled in money can be daunting, so generally every time the third uncle takes the exam, he goes with a few Xiucai in the same county, and four or five people go to the same carriage to share the cost, which is naturally within the range of affordability!

From the county seat to the provincial capital, although the road is not too far, but it is also measured by the means of transportation you take, if you take a car and plane, the speed is naturally fast, a day and a half a day will arrive.

But if you ride in an old horse-drawn carriage, and you are still walking on a slightly bumpy road, and there are five or six people in the carriage and the groom, the journey is naturally long!

However, for a group of people who have participated in four or five scientific expeditions alone, they already have a lot of experience in such a hurry!

The wine and delicacies on the carriage, exquisite pastries can be said to be everything, and several sour shows who are connected with the same fate get together, which is naturally sour!

Ziming is a classmate of the third uncle, and he is the one who often comes to Zhang Jie's house to invite the third uncle to talk, Zhang Jie remembers him the most is a few years ago, when he came to the house, he carried the fat pork in his hand, and there is stinky tofu!

There are more than thirty people, but at this moment, they are like the stunned young man who has just left the school, holding a wine jug in his hand, and with a lump of wine red on his face, he muttered:

"The holy will is like the sky, how can it be guessed, the sun and the moon in the future will never come.

Five thousand green Jane lamps read in front of the lamp, and the upstarts still occupy the old platform. ”

"Good!"

"Good! Good! ”

After a poem came down, there was a burst of applause in the carriage, and I saw the third uncle, who was also holding a wine jug in his hand, raised the wine jug to the other party with admiration, and said with a melancholy expression:

"Brother Ziming's sentence 'read in front of the lamp with five thousand green Jane', but he said that he is from the bottom of his heart, let me wait for the wine today, and I hope that all the gentlemen can 'the new upstart still occupies the old platform' and drink together!"

"Drink together!"

A group of four or five people all raised their glasses and drank together, looking like they were dripping with joy!

"Brother Qi Ling, this nephew is silent today, we are all famous people in Cangxian County, and we will encourage each other in the future, why don't we drink together?"

A middle-aged fat man with a fat head and big ears saw that the young man on the side was just sitting on the side, but he had never drunk together, so he asked the third uncle on the side!

"Brother Qi Ling, this nephew is a great talent, he has not yet been born to get a show, today is less than thirteen, he will participate in the autumn exam with me, he is a talented person, why not let the little brother Taifu a poem, so that I can open my eyes!"

Ziming, who had obviously drunk a lot, had just made a poem that everyone applauded, and at this moment it was the time to be complacent, so he became more and more proud, raised the wine glass in his hand, and invited the young man in the corner to improvise a poem!

Seeing that several people in the carriage were looking at him with blank eyes, Zhang Jie, who was competing with a plate of exquisite pastries, also had to stop, swallowed the pastries in his mouth fiercely, and looked around, especially when he saw a few people looking proud, Zhang Jie knew that people were not waiting for you to compose any poems, but waiting to see you make a fool!

Also, these people are all old qualifications who have been tested for more than ten years, and they are arrogant. Pretentiousness is a common characteristic of several people, and now a little teenager is also on an equal footing with them and participates in the autumn exam together, which is naturally a blow to their self-confidence, and it is understandable that they are not pleasing to the eye now.

Smashing it, smashing it, smashing it, and groaning slightly, Zhang Jie planned to satisfy the self-esteem of these people.

"Lang Riglang! Lang Rig Lang!

Wu Song came to Jingyanggang!

Speaking of fighting tigers,

Old sheep fighting.

Hit a sheep and call her mother!

Call it a mother! ”

After saying a beautiful poem, Zhang Jie did not forget to clasp his fists with both hands, and at the same time said politely in his mouth: "Offering ugliness, offering ugliness!" ”

"Brother Chess...... This is? ”

Ziming on the side obviously didn't understand why the poems of the young man were so carving, and he actually had such a sense of rhythm throughout the whole article.

"Good, good, good!" The third uncle, who had a cheerful face, raised the wine jug in his hand and drank a glass of it!

The middle-aged fat man on the side held back a fierce smile, and then said to a few people in the carriage with a solemn face:

"Brother Qi Ling spoke very highly of this poem, just now Brother Ziming's poems, Brother Qi Ling only used two good words, but Ling nephew's poems, Brother Qi Ling used three good words in a row, sure enough, Brother Qi Ling's nephew is a talented person, I will drink freely, and I will drink with another peerless genius in Cangxian County!"

"Hahaha......"

There was a burst of hearty laughter in the carriage, as if confirming that the young man in the corner of the carriage was indeed not on the same level as his party, and it was even more pleasant to let them win!

Gently sent a mouthful of grape wine to his mouth, and seeing the excitement of several talented men in the carriage, Zhang Jie couldn't help but leak a little smile.

Not to mention, if it weren't for the blessing of this middle-aged fat man, this journey might really be a lot boring, now there is this fat man with a generous hand, there is no shortage of food and wine along the way, as long as he sits in the carriage so comfortably, and waits for delicious food and drink, it seems that it is not so important to be ridiculed like this!

The carriage is leisurely, walking on the road like this, occasionally enjoying the beautiful scenery outside the car window, or watching several talented men in the carriage tout each other.

Several Xiucai Lang have never touched a book since they left home, and Zhang Jie is the only one among several Xiucai Lang who still holds a book at all times.

Except for a rain on the way, the group was delayed on the road for a few days, and along the way, it was smooth to reach the waves, unlike a few seniors who always drank and talked happily, the closer they got to the Holy Mansion, the more restless Zhang Jie's mind became.

After all, it is the first time to participate in such a formal big exam, and the difficulty is much greater than when he relied on Xiucai before, and the preparation time is indeed a little hasty, several factors are superimposed, Zhang Jie's grasp of this autumn exam has gone from the original must, to the five or five open some time ago, and to the current three seven.

Naturally, the probability of not hitting has been adjusted to seventy percent by Zhang Jie.

And when the carriage finally came to the provincial capital, looking for inns, he found that all the inns were booked by Xiucailang who came to take the exam, but this anxious mind became more and more intense!

"Bad luck, if it weren't for the rain in the middle of the way, which was delayed for a few days, it wouldn't be like this, and I wouldn't even be able to find a place to live." The whole capital has turned around a lot, although there is still some time before the autumn test, but the inn in the entire provincial capital is really overcrowded, and after running for a long time, the middle-aged fat man who was sweating heavily shook his head and said.

"In this way, I can only increase the price!" The third uncle, who sighed slightly, said helplessly.
