Zhou Shuren came into contact with the ancient exam for the first time, and made a mistake for the first time, "Second place." ”

Zhulan was surprised, "Who is the first?" ”

Zhou Shuren said while undressing: "In other villages, the twenty-two-year-old has taken the exam three times. ”

Zhulan smiled, this means that people are more experienced than him, took the clothes, "Where is the government exam in April?" ”

Zhou Shuren said a little unnaturally: "The Pingzhou exam, the government exam at the beginning of April, the end of the month is the college exam, and the college exam is also in Pingzhou, which is presided over by Xuezheng." ”

Zhulan calculated the days, "It's best to go to Pingzhou in advance, isn't it going to be late March?" ”

Zhou Shuren nodded, "Well, come to Pingzhou with me then?" ”

Zhulan counted the time, there was still a month and a half to almost train the Li family out, and it was no problem for the Zhao family to be absent, "Cheng, by the way, Jiang Sheng came to deliver the copied book the day before yesterday, and I gave him the rest of the silver, and I asked him to wait for you to come back." ”

Zhou Shuren remembered his son-in-law's affairs, "I went to the exam this time to find a job for him again, sorted out the old documents for the county government, re-recorded the tax situation for more than ten years, 500 wen a month, and went to help in the afternoon, so as not to delay reading in the morning." ”

Zhulan was curious, "How did you manage to go to the exam and meet a friend from the county government?" ”

The county government needs to find someone to help and will not find a child, this kind of opportunity to contact the county is rare, don't look at the county Cheng does not have much power, responsible for documents, management, taxation, and regulate the relationship between the yamen and various ethnic groups, but at least the family is also a lifter, but also an official, really into the eye to point some is also very useful.

The rarer the opportunity, the more surprised Zhulan was that Zhou Shuren did it!

Zhou Shuren pulled over the pillow and lay on the kang and leaned sideways and said: "On the first day of the exam, I went out to eat, I met the head of the official team, it was the brother-in-law of the county Cheng, chatting and knowing that the county Cheng valued an antique and was not sure whether it was true or false, I had a heart-to-heart friend, and when the exam was over, I helped, the antique was fake, and then in order to thank me and know that I was a candidate for this year, I felt that I had a good ability during the discussion, and naturally I gave preferential treatment, and then I took the opportunity to tell the recruitment from the mouth of the head of the officer, and introduced Jiang Sheng, and the county Cheng agreed, that's it." ”

Zhulan's brain turned quickly, "Antiques must not be cheap, if I remember correctly, you once said that the county has been here for several years, and the county master was rated excellent last year, and he will definitely go up, he sees the opportunity to go up, and he also wants to go up, antiques are gifts?" ”

Zhou Shuren smiled and nodded, "Smart, that's why he is very grateful, if he buys it and sends it to offend people, not to mention, but also to break the future that he has worked so hard to find, he has the heart to thank, I have the heart to make a request, and naturally agreed, but he didn't say when it will be sorted out, this is to wait for me to be admitted to Xiucai, I can sort it out for a few more months if I am admitted, and I will not be admitted to the top of the day until May." ”

Zhulan hooked the corners of her mouth, "The county is a lifter, he is not continuing to take the exam, the position of the county is sought, it is not the right way to be promoted to the fifth grade or above, I am not mistaken!" ”

Zhou Shuren, "That's right. ”

Zhulan touched her chin, "It seems that the county is really optimistic about you, and by the way, he invested in himself in advance, and the old fox also left a way back for himself!" ”

Zhou Shuren looked at Zhulan without blinking, he didn't say it thoroughly, Zhulan understood that this kind of resonance felt exceptionally good, "Madame's intelligence, admiration for my husband!" ”

Zhulan's face couldn't help but blush, whoever was directly hooked and looked at everyone aggressively was a little unnatural, she was just red, "Okay, you can rest early, and make up for you at night." ”
