Liu is a person who is soft on the outside and strong on the inside, otherwise he would not face the persecution of his fiancé, resolutely quit the marriage, and immediately decided to marry himself to prevent future troubles.

She has the traditional industriousness and kindness of women in the Celestial Empire, and the tenacity to survive that is rare in the world, and once she makes up her mind, she immediately puts it into action.

Although I have been involved in the Great Classics, the Middle Classics, and the Small Classics, as well as the "Classic of Filial Piety" and the "Analects" when I was young, I have not touched books for more than ten years, and many sentences and passages have been forgotten.

Therefore, if you want to cope with the county examination for women in May next year, you must at least review the scientific examination books prescribed by the imperial court.

Nowadays, reading is a luxury, not only is pen, ink, paper and inkstone expensive, but books are even more expensive.

For a book like a Buddhist scripture, the price of a book is always too low, let alone a book like the imperial examination.

Fortunately, several generations of the Liu family have taken the imperial examination as their own responsibility, and now the family is in the middle of the road, and I dare not say how many ancient books and rare books, but the books of the imperial examination are complete.

However, the imperial examination books are the lifeblood of the Liu family, and they are the foundation of the Liu family.

As the saying goes, a good memory is not as good as a bad pen, so she might as well use this half a year to copy the books of the imperial examination all over again.

First, you can prepare for your exam next May, and you can also save the copied books for your younger daughter, who can at least teach at home if she can't go to school to receive formal education like her son.

It is also the tenth month of the lunar calendar, which coincides with the agricultural slack, and it is more convenient to act.

The Liu family and Liu Qianli discussed it properly, and after all, they had not officially separated the family, so they had to inform the old couple of the Liu family if they lived under one roof.

Although the autumn tax was exempted, the Liu family still hurt their vitality, and Grandma Liu wished that the outsiders such as her daughter-in-law and granddaughter would not waste the rations at home, and she didn't care that no one cooked when the Liu family left, so she sympathized with her daughter-in-law and missed her mother's family, and allowed the Liu family to take Liu Chenxing to live in the Liu family.

In the following days, Liu Chenxing seemed to have returned to the time when Uncle Liu was teaching at home.

Liu Shi can't remember the 492 chapters of the 24 chapters of the Analects, but the meaning of each chapter is understood, and it is not a problem to teach Liu Chenxing at all.

So, Liu followed the progress of Liu Chenxing's current learning, taught Liu Chenxing every morning, and completed today's homework every afternoon when the mother and daughter copied the book one by one.

Liu Qianli deeply felt that his children wanted to study, and he didn't dare to slack off, because he couldn't go hunting in the mountains because of the cold weather, and he didn't rely on the stems of dendrobium flowers to sell a lot of money, so he went to the county town to work part-time to earn money as in the winter of previous years.

He was born tall and big, with a seemingly inexhaustible strength, as well as good carpentry skills, and even could recognize a few words, which was very sought-after among the people who worked part-time.

As soon as I went, I found the owner who had food and accommodation, which was a large family in the county, and was arranged for the owner to repair the house for the New Year.

In this way, it is convenient to visit his son and wife and brother who are studying in the school hall from time to time, and can buy food and send it to his wife and daughter.

In this way, although the family of four is not together, they are all working hard for their future lives.

At the beginning of November, Liu Qianli asked the owner for a day off and took his son, wife and daughter back to Liu's house.

There is no other reason.

As Liu Wanli analyzed at the beginning, his luck came.

participated in the imperial examination for more than ten years, and finally passed the county examination in the session of Empress Kaienke.

Not to mention how happy Liu Wanli is, he feels that God has finally opened his eyes.

After the widow and gambling debts, Uncle Liu, who had been cowering at home, was even more overjoyed, because he could finally see the light of day.

On the day the good news came, it was just noon, and Mr. Liu couldn't even take care of lunch, so he immediately changed into a robe that he was only willing to wear during the New Year, and came to the big locust tree in the village after a long absence, and waited for someone to make a fuss.

In ancient times, it was not easy to read, and if there was a scholar in the village for more than ten years, it could be regarded as a Wenqu star. Therefore, Liu Wanli's passing the county exam this time is like a modern college entrance examination champion.

For a while, the villagers still remembered the ugly incident of Liu's family half a year ago, and they all congratulated Liu Laozhang for raising a good son, and there were even more people who came back from working in the county.

There is such a happy event, Liu Laozhang really can't wait for the whole world to know, so he boycotted the banquet, not only to invite the whole village, but also to invite all the people who can be invited, so that Liu Chenxing's family came back.

Nowadays, the land is vast and sparsely populated, and the small farm yard not only has a front and back yard, but also occupies a large area.

But just like that, the table was not set, and many people were arranged to sit at the gate of the courtyard.

From noon until dark, there was no wine to be seen.

It's also a pity that there is no night ban in the countryside, and if you are in the city, you can't be caught by Wuhou, that is, the ancient film police.

At that time, the people in the village had to go to Liu's house to tout if they had anything to do, and Uncle Liu was probably a little floating, and said to the two sons at the same table: "Uncle, I'm not mistaken, right?" To honor your ancestors, you have to rely on the boss! Therefore, don't blame Aya for being biased in the first place, but if you have that ability, Aya will also favor you! ”

I really drank too much, Uncle Liu burped as he spoke, but he just stood up and continued: "Forget it, now that your brother has also passed the county test, I don't want to worry too much, so the matter should be over." ”

It has already passed three rounds of wine, and the moon has risen high.

Many villagers have already left the table, and there are only some greedy people who are still drinking in twos and threes.

Liu Wanli has no one to praise here, but he is still not interested, hearing Liu Laozhang's words, remembering that he has bowed his head everywhere these days, his heart is quite uncomfortable, so he came to Liu Laozhang's side and said to the two brothers: "The second and third, I Liu Da is not an ungrateful person, I can not blame the past." But I'm disrespectful to Aye, I Liu Da can't get over here, you apologize to Aya now, so that nothing happened! ”

Hearing this, Uncle Liu didn't speak, just looked at the two sons opposite, and obviously thought that he should apologize to himself.

Liu Chenxing and Liu Qingshan usually get up early to read in the morning, but now they are sleepy, but when they heard these words, the brother and sister suddenly sobered up.

A-Niang taught herself to read in the morning, copied books in the afternoon, and weaved cloth in the evening, so she had no leisure all day. Now that I finally have a day off, I am still helping in the kitchen at this time, but as a result, their family has to be forced to apologize?

Do you really think that you will be able to pass a county test?

The 25,000-mile Long March is just the first step!

Liu Chenxing took the lead and said: "Brother, did the uncle do well in the exam this time?" Speak so loudly! ”

Liu Qingshan immediately understood what Ah Mei meant, he held back a smile, and said seriously: "Uncle can be regarded as a good exam, after all, he passed the county exam." But I can't compare with my uncle, my uncle is the first place in the county exam, but my uncle is the last place! ”
