"What kind of bullshit is this? No wonder sixty-two will be taken, according to today's mainstream interpretation of Shangshu, this sentence on the exam question is excerpted from Shangshu, there is no such statement at all, this candidate is a bit sloppy and frivolous. ”

Inspector Mei finished reading the test papers, scolded angrily, threw the test papers away, and picked up the rest of the test papers to read.

The remaining three exam papers are all half unreadable.

After reading it, he poured himself a cup of tea, took two sips, and his eyebrows furrowed.

The night was already late, the weather was a little hot, and the old butler was snoring lightly on the cot next to the bed.

He probably wanted to serve the master to sleep before he slept, but he couldn't stand it and was too sleepy, so he fell asleep without taking off his clothes at this time.

Inspector Mei's brows furrowed because he didn't mind this.

He thought of the Shangshu point of view he had just seen in the volume, and the more he pondered it at this time, the more it seemed to mean something.

So he lay on the ground, looked for the scroll he had just made, and after a while he found it, picked it up and read it carefully two or three times.

I thought to myself; To be honest, if you interpret this sentence in Shangshu from this perspective, it is quite innovative, and it is not so bad.

He put the exam paper back on the table, lay on the bed and closed his eyes, he was quite tired from the bumpy day, but he was still thinking about the exam paper in his mind.

So I lay down for a while and couldn't help but get up, and read it twice before lying down.

I traveled all the way south for two more days, and in the past few days, Inspector Mei has not spoken much, and several times I felt hungry after being reminded by the housekeeper to eat.

Sometimes, even if I eat half of it, I will pick up the book at hand and look through it, or just hold a scroll and think about it repeatedly.

The housekeeper smiled, remembering that the master had only studied so seriously when he went to Beijing to take the exam on the spot.

At that time, both of them were young, and now, in the blink of an eye, they are both old.

"Master, you seem to have another experience with Shangshu?"

"Yes, this volume of Shangshu articles has given me a new idea, and the more I think about it these days, the more I feel that interpreting Shangshu with this line of thought seems to have more charm and deep meaning."

Butler's Road; "A little boy, will his interpretation of Shangshu be more powerful than that of the master?"

Inspector Mei shook his head and pondered for a moment before speaking; "Reading is not based on age and scientific examination, even if some people have just read a certain book, their novel views may inspire decades of old pedants who have speculated about the book."

"The old man has a point."

Inspector Mei smiled, looked up and asked; "Where have we been?"

"This is the territory of Zhong County, and about two hundred miles to the south, you will reach Linhe County, which is about three days away."

"Oh!" Inspector Mei nodded, and suddenly asked again; "Where is Gui County?"

"Gui County is in the east, and it will be a hundred and fifty miles away." As an old housekeeper, when he was a child, he accompanied him to study everywhere, and when he grew up, he accompanied him to catch the exam, and later accompanied the master to go around as an official, and his communication skills and work skills are still there.

Whenever I go to a place, I will find the shopkeeper, and the second or the old man will inquire about the nearby terrain, so as long as the old man asks, he can answer.

This is also the reason why even if he is not young, the old man still takes him everywhere.

Inspector Mei said at this time; "Then go to Gui County first."

"Why?" The old butler asked with some surprise.

Inspector Mei raised the scroll in his hand and said; "This candidate is from Gui County, I think his interpretation of this test paper seems to be inexhaustible, and I feel itchy to see it, I plan to visit him."

"Master, as an inspector, you are going to visit a scholar who has just been admitted to the children's examination, I'm afraid it will ......"

Mei Yiming stroked his not very long beard and said with a smile; "Zi said that there must be my teacher in the threesome, and there is no order to learn, and the master is the teacher, and his interpretation of this sentence in Shangshu can be my teacher."

The old butler looked embarrassed; "This ......"

"It's a big deal, we just don't reveal the identity of the inspector."

"This ......"

Mei Yiming patted his head lightly and said; "Don't do this, this, and that."

Then he said; "More than 100 miles of road, three or five days to go back and forth, not much delay, you arrange a person to go to Linhe Mansion to report, this inspection, let's start from Linhe Mansion."

"But the college examination usually starts in the provincial capital......"

Inspector Mei chuckled; "Generally speaking, this is true, but there are also unusual times, where to start the test I have the final say."

The housekeeper shook his head and smiled bitterly, the old man seemed to have regained his youthful spirit at this time, he used to study for the sake of learning, and he traveled dozens of miles overnight, just to ask for a sentence or two.

I can't think of it now.

So the group changed their route to the east.

At noon the next day, in early May, the heat in the south was getting stronger, and the group walked quite hard.

"Mei Zhong, everyone is tired in the hot weather, stop and let everyone rest." Mei Yiming in the carriage shouted.

The housekeeper hurriedly said; "Master, I just inquired, there is a small town a few miles ahead, let's go to the town and rest, there is food there, there is no need for everyone to eat dry food."

"It's good!" Inspector Mei, who was a little drowsy by the car, answered, and because he didn't want to fall asleep, he found some topics to continue the conversation; "What's the town up ahead?"

"It's called Lin Fengzhen!"

Mei Yiming sighed; "Alas, what good food can there be in a small town, at most it is not some chickens, ducks and fish that are cooked in poor hands, how can you eat these things when the weather is so hot today. When you get to the town, you can find a wonton shop and buy me a bowl of wontons with soup and water, so nostalgic for the steamed vegetables in my hometown, which are numb and spicy and appetizing. ”

When the carriage arrived at the entrance of the town, because it was not a polder day, there were not many people on the street, so the housekeeper asked a man who was enjoying the shade under the tree; "Brother, do you have any appetizing food in town?"

The man laughed when he heard this; "You're passing through here from out of town, aren't you? Hahaha, if you ask like this in other places, I can't answer it, but you ask in Lin Feng Town, there is really a restaurant for this appetizing and delicious food. ”

"Oh? Can you tell me? ”

The man stood up and said; "I happen to be hungry too, and I'm going to go over and eat a bowl, you come along, and I'll lead you."

"That's the best."

The group entered the main street and then turned into an alley.

When he got off the bus at the entrance of the alley, he saw that the alley seemed to be more lively than the street, and people came and went, so he raised his feet and walked to the alley with the flow of people.

The last time I celebrated Zhao Fuzi and Bu Ru's middle school children, the Bujia noodle shop made noodles for free all day, so that countless homeless beggars had a full day, and even people who came here to do business from other places, who didn't eat much snail noodles, also tasted fresh.

This made the fame of Bujia snail noodles suddenly more prosperous, and even outsiders began to come here to eat snail noodles.

At this time, it happened to be a meal, and there was an endless stream of guests from nearby and other places.
