Chapter 7: The Next Set
"Good! I'll bet with you! Cheng Zhong seemed to be unable to stand Cheng Xueyi's agitation, and blurted out.
Hearing Cheng Zhong's words, Cheng Xueyi laughed! Although Cheng Zhong is sixteen or seventeen years old, he can't even write his own name, although he seems to have suddenly opened his mind in the past two days, but the county test is imminent, and there is only one month to go, so I want to see what he takes the county test.
"I have one condition, though." Cheng Zhong said again.
"If there are any conditions, you might as well say it and listen to it." Cheng Xueyi said. Facing the current Cheng Zhong, he didn't dare to agree casually, so as not to fall into the trap.
"My condition is very simple, that is, my husband must return to the school to teach immediately, and there must be no slack and perfunctory, otherwise this gambling contract will be invalid." Cheng Zhong said.
Cheng Xueyi pondered for a moment and said, "I can promise you." But what does this bet say? ”
As soon as Cheng Xueyi said this, Cheng Zhiyan and Cheng Lian turned their eyes to Cheng Zhong again, and Liu secretly pulled his son twice behind him, but Cheng Zhong just ignored it.
"The stakes are simple. If the student is lucky enough to pass the guò county exam, then please ask the gentleman not to blame the past and forgive the student for the collision. Cheng Zhong said: "If the student is not good at learning and his name is lost to Sun Shan, then the student will naturally kneel in front of the gentleman's door and plead guilty, thinking that the latter is a lesson." ”
Cheng Zhong originally wanted to put forward some harsh bets to Cheng Xueyi, but first, it was unrealistic, and secondly, even if he really won, I am afraid that Liu, Cheng Zhiyan and others will also prevent Cheng Xueyi from fulfilling the contract.
Sure enough, after hearing this bet, Cheng Xueyi nodded with satisfaction, in his opinion, Cheng Zhong was subdued to himself in this way.
"Okay, it's up to you!"
I don't know if it's an illusion, when he agreed to this bet, he seemed to see a smile on Cheng Zhong's face, but it flashed, and when he looked carefully, he didn't even catch a trace.
Cheng Xueyi would not have thought that this qiē was actually in Cheng Zhong's design.
When the Wang family withdrew, Cheng Zhong decided to take the county exam. Although Cheng Zhong is not the slightest bit sure about entering the imperial examination, he still has some confidence just to take the exam. In later life, he was also a college student, and he was also very fond of ancient literature, and he spent a year in the library, thinking that there was still hope for the Tongguò County exam.
We must let the unrighteous and powerful Wang swallow back the thick phlegm he spit out.
When the news of Cheng Xueyi's picker came, Cheng Zhong had already paid attention to it, and said since ancient times: Please don't want to ask him in a low voice, then there is only a radical general. It's just that I didn't expect Cheng Xueyi to be so "on the road" that he would let his plan be achieved smoothly, which is also an unexpected joy.
"Zhong'er, you shouldn't have made this bet with Mr." On the way back, Liu still complained in frustration: "This is a big joke." ”
For his son not to listen to his persuasion and whimsically proposed such a bet, Liu is not optimistic at all.
"What? Is the county exam hard to take? Cheng Zhong asked relaxedly. He has also experienced thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge, and he thinks that he still has some talent in taking exams, and even he thinks that he should belong to the exam-type talent, and he can always wave and get good results.
"Whether the county exam is difficult or not, my mother doesn't know, but your father also presided over several county exams when he was alive. If it's a good test, why are there so many people, and there aren't a few who can pass guò? Liu said. Cheng Lian also participated in the county exam, but unfortunately he did not pass guò. Cheng Lian's grades are not considered second in Cheng clan studies, and he can't even pass the exam, let alone Cheng Zhong, who is stupid and famous on weekdays.
"That's right." Cheng Zhong nodded, a somewhat contemplative look on his face.
Seeing that his son was thinking, Liu didn't say anything more.
After a while, Cheng Zhong suddenly said, "Hmm! He nodded heavily.
Liu thought that Cheng Zhong had finally figured it out, but he didn't expect Cheng Zhong to say: "This piece of pork fat is too much, if it is braised in a braised case, I am afraid it will not taste good there." Consider making a dish of vegetables to be fried. If you have a piece left, you can make plum cabbage button pork, or tamale......"
Liu never expected that what Cheng Zhong was thinking about just now was how to eat this piece of meat.
Because of the gambling contract, in order not to tell the truth, Cheng Xueyi returned all the gifts brought by the Liu family and did not accept anything.
This cola spoiled Cheng Zhong, it has been a few days since he came to this world, but he has hardly even tasted the meat, and Cheng Zhong has long been hungry. Seeing that Liu bought meat but wanted to give it to Cheng Xueyi, Cheng Zhong's heart has been full of slander, and finally this piece of meat has come back, his heart has already been opened, how to eat it? !
"That's what you just thought?!" Liu asked incredulously.
"Or else?" Cheng Zhong said indifferently: "If you don't have enough to eat, where can you have the heart to study?" ”
Cheng Zhong thought about it, and when he went back, he first found a few county exam papers from previous years to understand, and then prepared in a targeted manner, in a month's time, he didn't believe that he couldn't even pass a county exam! If compared with later generations, the county exam is at most a small promotion, and it is also a preliminary exam, how difficult can it be?
Here, Cheng Xueyi is also full of joy. Cheng Xueyi's wife, Huang, couldn't help but ask curiously when she saw it: "What?" Did the student who contradicted you come here? ”
"I've been here." Cheng Xueyi nodded and said, "His mother came with him." The attitude is quite respectful. ”
"Kneel down and admit your mistake?" Huang asked again.
"Uh...... Not really. Cheng Xueyi replied hesitantly as if he remembered something.
"Since you didn't kneel down and admit your mistake, how can your attitude be considered respectful?" Huang asked strangely: "He dares to contradict the teacher like this, and he still doesn't kneel down to admit his mistakes, how can such a child get it if he doesn't teach him some lessons?" If you want me to say, if he doesn't kneel down and admit his mistakes for a day, you won't go to class for a day, and now that the county exam is imminent, the child's parents will naturally be anxious. When the time comes, he can't help but admit that he is wrong. ”
This is also Cheng Xueyi's original idea, but now-
Cheng Xueyi swallowed and foamed, and said with some difficulty: "But I have promised to go back to teach tomorrow." ”
"What? Why did you say yes? Huang asked in surprise.
"yes, why did I say yes?" Cheng Xueyi recalled what had just happened, and after a while, he slapped his head fiercely, and said angrily: "I'm in this kid's way!" ”
Although Cheng Zhong seemed to have made a bet with himself that he would definitely lose, he successfully made Cheng Xueyi agree to teach. If it weren't for Huang's reminder, Cheng Xueyi wouldn't have even understood it until now! This kid, this is unguardable. But the county test is not so easy to pass, and if you can't pass the county test when the time comes, don't you want to come to the door to beg for mercy?
Although he comforted himself like this, Cheng Xueyi vaguely guessed in his heart that even if Cheng Zhong finally failed the county exam, he would definitely play other tricks, and it was not so easy to make him admit his mistake obediently. This kid is usually demented, but he didn't expect this belly to crook his intestines.
And after Cheng Zhong read more than a dozen county test papers, he suddenly made an "oops", which scared Liu's big start.
"I fell for Cheng Xueyi's old boy." Cheng Zhong said with annoyance.
After reading the exam papers, Cheng Zhong realized that the county exam was not what he thought it was at all. Where is this guy who is the bottom test he expected for the junior high school, is this a rehearsal for the college entrance examination at all? Cheng Zhong was stupid, although he had read a lot of ancient texts, but he didn't have any knowledge of the Tongguò County test.
A bet, both sides of the bet have a bit of remorse, which is also peculiar.
But now, Cheng Zhong's big words have been spoken, and there is no turning back when he opens the bow, and this can be regarded as a good way out for him, even if it is difficult, Cheng Zhong has decided to give it a try!
