Chapter 163: About the Township Examination
No matter what kind of society it is, the importance of transportation is self-evident, and Luo Hui'an's suggestion Tong Chuxue agrees with it, and she decides to talk to Uncle Lizheng about it when she returns to Qingshan Village.
The heavy rain that lasted for several days finally stopped after a few days, and God also gave face to the back, Tong Chuxue and they sorted out their things, and finally had the opportunity to go back to the village.
Castle Peak Village still looks like a small isolated village, and there is not much change from the past.
Everything was fine at home.
Tong Chuxue was the first to find Tong Shan and said the idea of building a road, Tong Shan agreed with it very much, but there was still a little worry in his heart, because building a road costs a lot of money and requires a lot of labor.
"Actually, it's not that difficult." Luo Hui'an suddenly spoke.
Tong Shan and Tong Chuxue looked at Luo Hui'an with anticipation, wanting to see what he had to say.
"On our way to the county seat, we have to pass through other villages, so we can go around the road a little bit from other villages, and then we can work together." Luo returned to Andao.
Tong Shan patted his head and laughed, "This method is good, or your young people's heads, haha, I'll go and talk to the village chief of the next village." ”
Tong Chuxue also glanced at Luo Hui'an in admiration.
Finalizing the matter of building the road, Tong Chuxue and Luo Hui'an returned home.
The jackfruit in Tong Chuxue's yard just ripened during this time, and the huge jackfruit hanging from the tree couldn't help but look a little scary.
Xu Jinniang watched Tong Chuxue pick a jackfruit familiarly, and frowned from beginning to end, "Chuxue, this thing looks like a hedgehog, can you eat it?" ”
Tong Chuxue took the knife and neatly separated the shell, "Mother, this is not only edible, but also very sweet." ”
Xu Jinniang looked at the small piece of yellow stuffed into Tong Chuxue's hand, with a disgusted expression, and didn't want to try it at all.
Tong Chuxue had no choice, so she simply called Luo Huifeng and Luo Huiqing over and gave them to eat first.
The two little ones were bold and didn't worry at all, so they picked it up and stuffed it into their mouths.
"It's delicious, it's delicious!" Luo Huifeng chewed it again, speaking indistinctly.
"Sister, what is this, it's so sweet." Luo Huiqing asked.
"It's called jackfruit, and it's a fruit." Tong Chuxue explained.
Xu Jinniang saw that the two children said it was delicious, so she was willing to try it, and the moment she put it in her mouth, she felt the sweet taste spread in her mouth.
What Tong Chuxue said is true.
Tong Chuxue observed Xu Jinniang's expression, knew that she liked it, and said with a smile, "I'll send a little more to Uncle Luo and my aunt." ”
After that, Tong Chuxue took a bowl of peeled jackfruit to Luo Hui's house.
At this time, Luo Hui'an was studying in the house, Luo Changhua and Lin Chunyan were talking in the hall, and when the two saw it, they were very happy and said, "Hui'an is in the house, I'll call him." ”
Tong Chuxue was a little embarrassed, and said busily, "I'm just here to deliver some food, let's go." ”
Lin Chunyan insisted on pulling Tong Chuxue to sit down, "It's all here, sit for a while, I'll call Hui'an out, I read books in the house every day, and my eyes are broken." ”
Not long after, Luo Hui'an came out of the house, saw the things brought by Tong Chuxue, and said curiously, "This is what you called your younger brothers and sisters over to eat?" ”
"Yes, it's sweet." Tong Chuxue was interested, and hurriedly recommended that they must have never eaten this kind of tropical fruit.
Luo Hui'an picked up a piece with a smile and took a small bite, "It's really sweet." ”
"yes, so I'm going to call him Sweet as Honey." Tong Chuxue Road, the previous dragon fruit was given the alias Fortune Fruit, and now this jackfruit definitely needs an alias.
"Yes, it's a good fit." Luo Hui'an expressed affirmation.
"I thought you'd think it was tacky." Tong Chuxue said, "After all, every time I have studied, I can't think of any nice names." ”
"How come, as long as the name is catchy, it doesn't make sense to chew on the words deliberately." Luo returned to Andao.
Tong Chuxue saw that Luo Hui'an was eating happily, and was about to let Uncle Luo and his aunt eat a little, but when she looked up, the two didn't know where they had gone.
"No need to look for it, they're going to your house." Luo Hui'an snickered.
Tong Chuxue has been born for so many years, and it is rare to feel a little embarrassed.
Luo Changhua and his wife specially gave up space to the two of them before they went to their own house.
"By the way, you seem to have ...... next year Township test? Tong Chuxue was a little unsure, she really didn't know much about the imperial examination.
"Well, what comes out of the township test is to lift people." Luo Hui'an said firmly.
"Lifting people, it sounds much more powerful than Xiucai." Tong Chuxue said with a smile.
"It's hard to say, although you have the qualifications to be an official, you need to wait until there is a vacancy before you can fill it." Luo Hui'an explained.
Tong Chuxue actually just asked casually, "Do you want to be an official?" ”
Luo Hui'an glanced at Tong Chuxue, a little hesitant, if he didn't want to, it was false, if he wanted to, in case Tong Chuxue's heart didn't want him to take this road.
After pondering for a moment, Luo Hui said, "I thought about it." ”
"Ever thought about it?" Tong Chuxue always felt that this answer seemed to have another deep meaning, thinking is thinking, not thinking is not thinking, what does it mean to have thought about it.
"Are you worried that you won't be able to pass the test?" Tong Chuxue can only explain it this way, Luo Hui'an's ability to never forget is indeed very rebellious, but the imperial examination is to make articles, not just rote memorization is useful, maybe he was successfully admitted to Xiucai with the things of books, but the difficulty of the later exams will definitely increase layer by layer, and he can't pack tickets.
Luo Hui'an never expected Tong Chuxue to think about this, and said helplessly, "Regarding the exam, Mr. Fu said that I still have some hope." ”
Ancient students were humble and unwilling to talk full.
But Tong Chuxue really didn't adapt to such a way of communication, and directly understood Luo Hui'an's modesty as lack of self-confidence.
"Actually, it's nothing if you can't pass the exam, it's already great that you can be admitted to Xiucai, you see Uncle Lizheng is so happy, and he also set up a banquet in the village to celebrate." Tong Chuxue said, "For the township exam, don't have too much pressure, look at it with a normal heart, just play normally, whether the exam can be successful depends on many factors." ”
The more Luo Hui'an listened, the more she felt that there was something wrong with Tong Chuxue's words, she seemed to think that she just couldn't pass the exam, and now this is considered early...... Console?
Tong Chuxue didn't know Luo Hui'an's inner activities, and was still talking on the side, "According to what you said, it's not a big deal to lift people, even if you are admitted, you may not be able to have much preferential treatment, you see that you are not good now......"
"Chu Xue," Luo Hui'an couldn't bear it anymore, "do you think I can't pass the exam?" ”
Tong Chuxue choked for a moment, she didn't think that Luo Hui'an would definitely fail the test, but the chance of failing the test was also very high.
"I heard that there are a lot of students from other places in Cloud City, I mean, you don't know what the strength of those people is, everything has accidents, not to mention that there are many uncertainties in the exam." Tong Chuxue tried hard to make up for herself.
Luo Hui'an said, "Mr. Fu said that there should be no problem with my township test this time. ”
Tong Chuxue was stunned for a moment, "How does Fu Runian know?" ”
She knew that Fu Runian was from the capital, but shouldn't all the important people be mixed in the capital, he came to the small place of Guyu County for no reason, and he didn't think it would be the best batch to mix.
Luo Hui'an looked at Tong Chuxue's face and knew that she was questioning Fu Runian's ability.
"Mr. Fu, it's from the Hanlin Academy." Luo returned to Andao.
"Hanlin Academy?" Tong Chuxue relied on her thin historical knowledge to recall that there seemed to be some masters in the Hanlin Academy who were very good at learning.
However, if Fu Runian was really from the Hanlin Academy, then why was he in Guyu County.
