Chapter 109: See the Bearded Guest Again?
The state test is one day in late April.
At this time of the year, it was the time of farming, but there were still ten days before the mango was planted.
I don't know if this year's mango seed can catch up?
The early morning wind blew from the window, vaguely carrying a hint of heat, Liu Chenxing always felt that the wisp of heat in the wind, like blowing from the wheat field, was telling people that the wheat was almost ripe.
Liu Chenxing knelt in front of the desk in the wing room, holding a volume of state exam essays from previous years, feeling the breeze blowing in the early morning.
Xue Yuan came over and shouted that Liu Chenxing could go, she knew that Liu Chenxing had already started practicing calligraphy at this time, so she didn't knock on the door, and walked directly to the window, and sure enough, the window was open.
But when he saw that Liu Chenxing was actually holding the scroll, it was really rare, and he couldn't help but be surprised.
Then thinking of these days, Liu Chenxing in addition to the imperial examination is the top priority, the next thing is to eat, so he asked: "Ah Xing, are you thinking about coming back after the exam, what do we eat at dusk?" ”
Xue Cheng, who went out with him, really didn't know what his sister was thinking, a fifteen or sixteen-year-old lady, not the most beautiful woman, she was born like a person who hadn't eaten for ten days and a half months, and she ate nothing but food a day.
However, thinking of A-Niang's instructions before going out, Xue Cheng thought about making a round for Xue Yuan, but he heard Liu Chenxing put down the answer sheet in his hand and sighed lightly: "Yes, I want to eat wheat noodles." ”
Hearing this, Xue Cheng suddenly closed his mouth and was silent.
Liu Qingshan and Liu Qianli also came out of the opposite wing, and just heard what Liu Chenxing said, so he raised his voice and said: "I also want to eat wheat noodles, I guess when we go back, Ah Niang will have already ground a lot of new wheat noodles and save them!" ”
Xue Cheng's tight mouth loosened a little, he understood, this was homesickness.
Liu Chenxing sighed in his heart.
Brother said so, they probably won't be able to catch up with Mangzhong's family.
Liu Chenxing couldn't help but shake her head, glanced at the blue-gray sky outside, she leaned over and blew out the oil lamp on the desk, got up and said, "It's not too early, we should go and wait for the entrance." ”
The things brought for the exam were packed up last night, and when I got up this morning, I checked it again, and Liu Chenxing didn't pack it anymore, so he directly carried the bamboo back basket and pushed the door out of the room.
When the group came to the lobby of the hotel, the lifters in white linen clothes had already gathered together in three or five, preparing to go to the state test together.
Like the original county exam, the first post experience was despised by the public, and the lifts that can go to the state test have been tempered thousands of times.
Therefore, the lifters in the hall did not show any nervousness before the exam, and were chatting with the people around them with a leisurely face.
If you want to ask about the exam, apart from the questions, what else can arouse such interest in the crowd.
It is also the top bet list.
From who is the state test to the second place in the state test?
and the top two in every exam.
In short, as the highlight of the annual Leaping Dragon, the state test of everything that can be bet is opened for the dealer.
The difference is only that the solution yuan and the settlement are the final result, and the compensation is naturally higher. And the payout is lower for each exam bet.
The first post is different from the second essay and the third trial, no need for literary knowledge, and no need for current affairs and political opinions, only the great scripture and "Lao Tzu" can be memorized backwards, so any state test candidate has the possibility of winning the first place.
After all, there is only one scholar in five or six hundred people, and there are very few people who can pass the county exam.
This is the case with all the people in the hall at the moment, who are busy touting each other as the first leader, why should they bet to win a fortune.
Xue Yuan saw it, approached Liu Chenxing and said, "Ah Xing, have you voted?" Yesterday I could see that your brother and my brother have gone to take custody of themselves! You said they were funny, they went secretly yesterday, and they didn't know that the people in this hall voted for themselves. ”
Born with a loud voice, Rao deliberately lowered his voice, or let the two brothers behind him hear it clearly.
Liu Chenxing heard the man's embarrassed cough behind her, she couldn't help laughing, and then thought of the state test to divert her attention.
Betting on the state test is not only a great entertainment for the lifters, but also a major event for the people of the state town.
Because of the participation of the people, the test-taking child has also become famous, so betting has become a big shortcut to the promotion.
For example, she was a well-informed person because of the bearded guest, and there were many well-informed people who knew that betting on her was just the Li family's ridicule of the Cui family, but it also won her a lot of popularity, coupled with her young age and the top of the female list, the people of the state city almost knew that there was such a female lifter as her this year, and she was still from Qingyang County, which has a strong literary style.
Although out of subconscious prejudice against women, and because people who are too young are always reluctant to believe, there are still not many people who bet on her, but the heat is enough, and there are many people who discuss her getting Xie Yuan.
And that's enough for her.
Of course, these are all learned from Xue Yuan's mouth, after all, she has been living almost in seclusion for half a month, and there are a lot of materials that Xue Cheng brought back to read and think.
Because of the accident, there is such a discussion, it has far exceeded her expectations, she has no need to invest money to bet on herself, she really doesn't like gambling, in case she gambles a few times and becomes addicted to gambling, it will be worth the loss.
However, if he didn't bet, it was not good to say to Xue Yuan at the moment, but there were two brothers who secretly bet behind, so Liu Chenxing directly threw the words out, "Then did you bet on yourself?" ”
Xue Yuan just likes to talk, and when she heard Liu Chenxing ask her, she didn't notice that she was bypassed the topic, and immediately replied: "Anyone's money is not blown by the wind, so I am not so stupid to vote for myself!" ”
In a word, the two brothers behind him were speechless again, and even coughing sounded.
Liu Chenxing blinked, and could only silently apologize to the two brothers, and listened to Xue Yuan continue: "I voted for you and Cui Xiang's grandson, I heard that this Cui Liulang is not only good at poetry, but also a master with wild grass. But I don't understand the wild grass, but I think Ah Xing, your Xiaokai is neatly written and very beautiful. I thought about answering the questions in small letters, and under the same number of questions answered correctly, this ranking has to rely on calligraphy, so I bet on Ah Xing you again! ”
As he spoke, he walked to the outside of the examination hall.
Almost all of the candidates selected and sent by the eight counties under the jurisdiction of Beizhou have arrived.
There was a crowd of people outside the hospital, and compared with the county exam, the number of people in white was significantly more.
Especially the female lifters, there are at least seven or eight people.
At a glance, Liu Chenxing retracted his gaze and wanted to wait in line with the female lifter, only to hear Xue Yuan shouting in his ear: "Ah Xing!" Look! It's the one who bet 100 times last time! ”
Bet 100 ...... The bearded guest?
Liu Chenxing looked up.
