Chapter 106: The Smell Smoke Down Second Brother Xu
When Hua Qiao and Hu Yanjin arrived at the gate of the Gongyuan, they knew why there were no candidates at home, and they had to actively come to eat melon seeds. It's tearjerker.
The carriage couldn't pass, so Hu Yanjin found the nearest place to park it, pulled Hua Qiao's arm and squeezed it in.
The township test is divided into three sessions, each of which is three days, and because there are two special sessions in the middle, it is a total of nine days and seven nights. Gongyuan is a special place for students to conduct examinations, three feet wide, four feet deep in a row of houses, sixty or seventy in a row, at the end of each row, is the place of the reincarnation of grains with toilets.
In that palm-sized room, the students not only had to rack their brains to deal with the test questions, but also had to suffer a lot of physical and skin labor. So when you come out in the end, the best state is to come out on your own.
The family members who stretched their necks at the door and waited to see if they needed to go in and carry them.
"Huh? Isn't that Second Brother Xu? Why is he standing outside eating melon seeds? Hua Qian Lahu Yanjin's sleeve asked.
Hu Yanjin also saw Xu Zhiheng, who was standing in the crowd and tiptoeing into the door. Seeing that his hair was neatly combed and his clothes were clean, he didn't look like he had just been released from the room.
"Xu Zhiheng! How daring! ”
Hu Yanjin was half a head taller than him, and screaming like this above his head scared Xu Zhiheng, who was concentrating on finding someone, half to death. Turning his head to look, he patted his chest and gasped.
"Ouch hey! You guys scared me to death! Lord Huyan, Hua Qiao, why are you here? Also here to pick up my brother? ”
"We're going to ask you more! Aren't you a student? If you don't take the exam inside, why did you run outside? Hua Qiao hurriedly asked.
When she asked, she actually cried such a big Xu Zhiheng, he pulled up his sleeve and wiped his tears and said:
"My life is miserable! My mother gave birth to three children, I was born the shortest, finally a little eloquent, and didn't let me play, the eldest brother has a family business to inherit, the third brother is a little more handsome than me, the girl looks at him and doesn't look at me, why do you say my mother gave birth to me......"
"You can't get to the point." Hu Yanjin really couldn't cry or laugh.
"Isn't that important enough? That's the point I can't figure out! I've been thinking about it every day for the past few days, and I say that God is jealous of talents, and this is me......"
Seeing that he was going to babble, Hua Qiao interrupted: "You were kicked out for cheating inside?" ”
Who knew that her question, the stone was shattered, and the people next to her all looked at it together, cheating in the Daming examination room is going to jail, and it is good to stand here if you cheat, this is explosive news. Eat melons one by one.
Xu Zhiheng was anxious, and shouted at the top of his voice: "How can I cheat!" I am...... I got the bottom number...... ...... who was carried out by the stinky "After speaking, he cried "wow".
"Cut! It's not news. ”
"It's just, I thought it was cheating, it's not exciting at all."
It turned out that before the students entered the Tribute Academy, in addition to the strict body search, they also had to draw the number plate of the number room, and everyone was afraid of drawing the "trumpet", that is, when the Tribute Institute was built, the number room that cut corners and reduced the size without authorization, the back pain, where is the mood to write a good article?
This is not the most terrible, the most afraid is to draw the "bottom number". The last room in each row is the thatched toilet, and the few rooms next to the thatched toilet have a taste that can be imagined. The point is, there is not even a door in each room.
Xu Zhiheng just pumped the "Tianzi stinky" separated from the toilet by a wall.
It's okay to go in on the first day, it's smelly, except that I don't have the heart to write an article, I'm still alive.
Finally, I endured chest tightness and shortness of breath until the third day, but some of the dry food brought by the students was rancid. I don't know who ate the rancid meal and ran to the toilet to diarrhea, and then Xu Zhiheng couldn't get up at all and fainted.
Fortunately, the little official who passed by and glanced at the room and hurriedly called the invigilator, and then carried Xu Zhiheng out of the Tribute Academy.
Xu Zhiheng breathed in normal air and finally breathed his breath. It's just that he can't go back, so he can only wave goodbye to this township test and come back in three years.
Every time the township test and the meeting test, the candidates who bid farewell to the examination room for these reasons have not stopped, so the people who eat melon seeds feel that it is not unusual. But for Xu Zhiheng, it is a dark cloud covering the top and a thunderbolt in the clear sky.
"Lord Huyan, why do you think I'm so unlucky?" Xu Zhiheng snorted and cried.
There was another unfortunate thing he didn't dare to say. The one who came to Yangzhou this year to give the exam questions was not Aunt Lu Dalang's cousin-in-law Li at all. The collection of strategies he bought for fifty taels of silver was of no use at all!
Hua Qiao comforted him and said, "It's okay, Second Brother Xu, you will make a comeback in three years." "How do you hear that...... It doesn't sound like a good word.
As he spoke, the gate of the Tribute Courtyard opened, and the unkempt students staggered out. Those who called, those who cried, those who cried out, those who were paralyzed on the ground, instantly at the door were like a hundred frogs crying at the same time.
Hua Qiao couldn't care about Second Brother Xu anymore, and pulled Hu Yanjin to squeeze to the door. Finally, she saw Xu Zhijin in the crowd.
"Third Brother Xu! Brother Xu! Anyway, no one knew her, Hua Qiao waved at Xu Zhijin while shouting.
Xu Zhijin looked a little tired except for the dark circles under his eyes, and his condition was fine. He was pleasantly surprised to see the buckwheat waving his hand, three steps and two steps, and opened his arms to give him a hug excitedly.
The person who was hugged by him said before he could calm down, "Can we let go of our hands and talk well?" ”
Only then did Xu Zhijin realize that he was not holding a buckwheat, but Hu Yanjin who stepped over and blocked the front of the buckwheat. Could it be that buckwheat is an illusion?
"Third Brother Xu, I'm here!" The petite flower buckwheat behind Hu Yanjin smiled.
"The third, the third! What do you think? Answered all? Xu Zhiheng also squeezed over. Hu Yanjin hurriedly said: "This is not the place to talk, let's go back to the inn first." ”
Xu Zhijin's inn is the best in the whole street, and it just so happens that Agua has booked this one, no way, the cheap ones are full of students.
Seeing Hua Qiao getting out of the car, Can'er, who was waiting outside the door, ran over with a smile: "Girl, did you get it?" ”
"Isn't that? The future master. Hua Qiao pointed to Xu Zhijin who followed down. The master and servant grinned and went back to their room.
Xu Zhijin also had to go up to take a shower and change clothes, he was still glad in the car just now, fortunately it was not a buckwheat that he was holding, his body was dirty and smelly, and it was not good to rub against her. As for the one who got to him...... He probably wouldn't mind......
Who says he doesn't mind? Before returning to the house, I called for water for Hua Qiao and myself, and I ran on the road for a day, who is not dirty and smelly?
By the time a few people returned to the lobby downstairs, Second Brother Xu had already ordered the wine and food, waiting to celebrate the third brother.
"Third brother, my brother is here to accompany the exam, you are the hope of our old Xu family!"
