Chapter Eighty-Eight: On the List
It's not yet noon after answering the questions.
In view of the fact that the imperial examination does not implement a vague name system, candidates inscribe their names on the test papers, and the examiners do not seal the test papers, so they can know which test paper belongs to whom. It is not only the test results that are not only based on the test results, but also the attitude of the candidates, the impression of the examiners, and the evaluation of them by the society.
Liu Chenxing continued to stay in the examination room.
It's too early to wake up today, and I don't feel sleepy when I'm free.
Liu Chenxing thought about it for a while, put the exam papers aside neatly, spread out the straw paper full of words and sentences again, and then stroked his forehead with his left hand, thinking about the test questions in a posture, but actually closed his eyes and took a nap.
As the saying goes, it's the legs that are cold.
There was a fire burning on his legs, and he was wearing a rabbit fur vest sewn by A-Niang in a white linen robe, and the whole person didn't feel cold even if he sat in the cold room with the open wind, and his consciousness sank after a while.
There must be problems with a person maintaining an action for a long time, and the candidates present have all been to the school, who is not lazy, there is no, there are always one or two students who are not good at class.
If he saw Liu Chenxing's appearance, and thought that Liu Chenxing was eating and drinking openly in the examination room, he must have pretended to fall asleep at this time, and then thought that Liu Chenxing was the youngest female candidate, and they couldn't help but secretly shake their heads, becoming more and more sure that Liu Chenxing was a rich girl who came to go through the motions.
Liu Chenxing naturally didn't know what everyone thought, and of course he wouldn't care if he knew.
She relaxed and squinted into the afternoon, still awakened by the regular biological clock, because she was hungry again.
Sure enough, he was hungry when it was cold, Liu Chenxing shook his head, added a piece of charcoal to the fire, and cooked his lunch like a morning meal.
The conditions of the examination room are limited, mainly because her small body can't carry too heavy things, what if she is short?
Therefore, the lunch meal is the same as the morning food, boiled mutton and sheep in water, plus half a piece of Hu cake.
After more than half an hour, and after another hour, the sky finally darkened a little, and when she saw a male candidate handing in the papers, she checked it again, and then packed up her things and left.
Like the modern high school entrance examination, the examination room is always crowded with parents waiting for candidates.
As soon as Liu Chenxing came out of the county yamen, Liu Qianli hurriedly beckoned: "Ah Xing! Over here! ”
Liu Qianli is eight feet tall and is very eye-catching in the crowd, Liu Chenxing also saw it at a glance, and was about to catch up, when he heard Liu Qingshan's voice shouting behind him: "Ah Xing, let's go together!" ”
Liu Chenxing looked back, and sure enough, it was Liu Qingshan, so he smiled, "Brother, I thought you would be the first to hand in the papers!" ”
Liu Qingshan stopped when he heard this, raised his eyebrows, and said, "Coincidentally, my brother also thought that you would not be able to bear to hand in the first paper!" ”
The brother and sister know each other too well, you say a word to me, and it is determined at the moment, they both did well in the exam today, and they were in a happy mood, of course, they took advantage of the curfew to eat a good evening meal, so they discussed what to eat, and walked down the stairs of the county government gate and left with Liu Qianli.
When the candidates who had just handed in their papers on the side saw this, they suddenly realized.
No wonder the two of them were eating and drinking openly in the examination room, it turned out to be a pair of foodie brothers and sisters, and then they came out of the examination room and said that they had eaten again.
Then I saw the object of the two shouting "Aya", at first glance, it was the mud legs in the countryside, and I couldn't help but despise it even more, it was not easy for the children of the peasant family to study, and they were so unsure of cherishing it, and sooner or later, like their fathers and grandparents, they would return to the fields and peasant women.
But it's precisely because of this kind of waste material that they stand out more.
Under a change of thought, many candidates suddenly felt superior, and they only felt that they must pass the county exam this time.
Xu is this year can read too few people, it is inevitable to boast of high talent, the first exam after the feel good, plus the next two exams have to rely on their own literary talent, no need to study hard to memorize, candidates will be in groups of three or five together, or in a hotel, or in a county candidate's home, drunk, anyway, there is no need to take the exam tomorrow.
Yes, the imperial examination at this time was not a three-in-a-row examination.
After passing the first exam, you need to be eligible for the next exam, and those who pass all three exams will be considered to have passed the county exam.
In order to allow time for the examiner to mark the papers, the test will be suspended for two days after each exam before the next exam will be conducted.
That is to say, after the first post, there is a two-day break, and will be on the next day off the "list", that is, the results of the first exam will be announced, and those on the list will take the second essay test the next day, and those who fail will naturally go home and study hard for another year to prepare for next year.
Liu Qingshan wanted to go back to the school hall before the curfew, and Liu Bao'er, who was in the same room, had nothing to say, as for Liu Qianqian's elders, it was not good to raise a glass and drink, Liu Chenxing naturally did not have a carnival after the exam, only told himself that he was in good health by going to bed early and getting up early.
Sure enough, I had no dreams all night and slept soundly until the next day.
The biological clock woke up at six o'clock in the morning, and Liu Bao'er on the floor was still asleep.
Because of what she said before the exam yesterday, this cousin was a little uncomfortable from returning to the room, probably thinking that the hotel was paid for by her family.
Although she guessed the reason, she didn't care about a few quarrels, but she didn't have such a good temper and took the initiative to talk, and it was good for her not to go back.
Liu Chenxing continued to treat each other as air, washed alone without saying a word, changed into the eye-catching scholar's robe, and walked out of the room with a bamboo basket on his back.
The hour is still early, the candidates who are staying are still sleeping, in addition to the people in the hotel hall, Liu Qingshan knows that his sister has the habit of getting up early and exercising in the morning, and it is not good to stay in the room for a long time, after all, the cousin is a little wrong, so he came from the school hall early in the morning and waited.
Liu Qianli also knew that his son and daughter were coming early in the morning, so in order to save money, he borrowed the kitchen from the store, took his own grain to cook millet porridge for the brother and sister, and boiled two eggs by the way, with his own bean sauce, it was a good morning meal.
After staying in the lobby of the hotel, the hotel was still quiet, but the brother and sister had already carried their own bamboo baskets, borrowed the courtyard of Du Shiyou's pharmacy to practice calligraphy, discussed the topic of tomorrow's poems, and made one or two evaluations.
As for Liu Qianli, in the end, Liu Bao'er's own uncle, and he handed it over to him, he couldn't let a little lady stay in the hotel, and he had to watch from the sidelines, only not to walk with his brother and sister.
Such a day.
The next day was as usual, but because the county government released the list at noon, he did not stay until the evening like yesterday before returning to the hotel.
But he also had a good attitude, thinking that he would know early and late, and it would not change the results of the exam, so he went to the old place and used mutton soup and Hu cakes, and the two brothers and sisters rushed to the county office.
It was very lively along the way, and the people were discussing the county government list, and they didn't know which students were on the list this year.
When it comes to the vicinity of the county office, it is even more crowded, and the world is staged.
However, most of them were happy, and only a few were depressed, annoyed that they were careless and filled in the wrong way.
Although the brother and sister are in their chests, they still have to look at the list to really rest assured, but the periphery of the list is full of candidates and their related people, etc., and it is not easy to squeeze in.
It was the worry that only heard Uncle Liu's familiar voice sound from the crowd.
"What!? Liu Chenxing! A list! ”
