Chapter 581: Ma Ke

In April, the re-examination of the literary examination, and when the affairs in the capital were dealt with, they hurried back, and after a long delay, they still caught up.

Familiar with the road back to the house in February, a month and a half did not live in a layer of dust, the two put down the burden and began to clean, the thought of living at night efficiency rubbing up, not a while the home has been swept again, sprinkle some water to drag a wipe, on the line.

The second day is the re-examination, the number of people has decreased a lot, although it is the top 50 admitted, but if the score is not up to standard, you are the first place to be brushed down, geography is generally high scores, the top 50 were admitted, and when the exam was taken that day, it was still according to the number of seats, but the table at the door was gone.

There is only one unified test paper, and the re-examination paper advocates the candidate's personal thoughts, all of which are live topics, talking about topics, maybe you say something wrong, violate discipline, and you are destined to go down no matter how high your score is.

In general, this retest paper is not scored, depending on the key points, as for where the focus is, I don't know.

Halfway through the exam, Xie Shiyun was stunned, the tools used for this question were not only ink pens, but also rulers, and Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun came out in a hurry and did not bring rulers.

Xie Shiyun's adjacent table seemed to see Xie Shiyun's embarrassment, so he didn't say anything but silently handed over the ruler, and then continued to bury his head in the question.

When Xie Shiyun was at a loss and was thinking about calling the invigilator, a ruler was stretched out on the side to solve Xie Shiyun's urgent need, the other party had a high emotional intelligence, and did not cast his eyes to disturb him, this person Xie Shiyun did not feel a little uncomfortable.

After finishing this question, he thought that Shen Sijun didn't have a ruler, so he handed it over, and after the latter completed the question, Xie Shiyun returned the ruler to the adjacent table.

The re-examination is not three days, but several, each one hour, and the venue is different, just a room, a table, a stool, a row of six people, a total of fifteen rows.

After the exam, the invigilator came down to collect the test papers, which candidates can already discuss in a whisper, Xie Shiyun doesn't care about the questions, after all, most of the questions in this re-examination are discussed with Shen Sijun and Xie Wen, and the last big one was put forward by Yun Yan that night, and Xie Shiyun directly hired it when she came up with the question.

The final examination paper of the literary examination has to be handed over to the Shengshang, which means that Xie Shiyun has to personally correct the last big article, and write it for himself, which is boring, even if he does not do well in the exam, the emperor is still me.

Xie Shiyun is now thinking about the table next to her who just borrowed stationery.

"Classmate, thank you for the exam just now, my friend and I came out in a hurry, fortunately with your help, I will treat you to a meal."

Before Xie Shiyun could pick it out, the words came out first, and the adjacent table did not refuse, and the three of them found a restaurant near the school.

The adjacent table was dressed plainly, but the face and body were very clean, and the people looked very comfortable, which made Xie Shiyun can't help but ask a few more questions.

"May I ask you what your name is?"

The adjacent table waved her hand, Xie Shiyun thought it was a refusal, but she didn't expect it to be because of the word 'you'.

"Don't say 'you' to me, my name is Mako, what about you?"

"Shen Si, Shen Jun."

The next table nodded, his gaze shifting between the two of them.

"Are you brothers?"

Xie Shiyun waved her hand, and she knew that the adjacent table would be misunderstood.

"No, no, it's just a place, all surnamed Shen."

"Oh, I'll just say, the two of you don't look like each other, one is gentle and the other is strong."

The three chatted for a while, and gradually learned about Mako's family situation.

"My family is poor, but I like to read, you know, reading costs money, the family doesn't have so much money, the conditions don't allow, but I want to read, so I study by myself every night, get up early during the day and go to the corner of the school to squat, I know that there is a corner where I can clearly hear the sound of scholars teaching, I don't have books, so I borrow, borrow to copy, no pen and ink to go to people to shine shoes, serve plates, so that you can buy pen and ink, but because of the previous imperial examination system, I always stop in the re-examination, Progressed the palace exam, just because of his identity. ”

Saying that, Ma Ke's expression dimmed, Xie Shiyun could think of countless people like Ma Ke with his toes, and how many people could persist in it, the original system was really ridiculous, and so many talents were missed.

"But now it's okay, I've waited, this is my fourth year of exams, and I believe that I will be able to go to high school this time!"

Xie Shiyun chuckled.

"I wish you can go to high school, but why do you dare to say that, if you are in high school, you will not be in high school than others, this is still in a restaurant, aren't you afraid of receiving resentment?"

Marco didn't care, just waved his hand.

"What is there to be afraid of, if I say what I want to be afraid of, then it will be meaningless, if I become an official in the future, I must be honest and honest, so I will definitely offend many people, but so what, I will not violate my conscience, if someone comes to harm me, then I will protect myself, if he colludes with someone, I will collect evidence and report to the saint, if I can't even do this, what's the point of me reading so many books."

Xie Shiyun thought of something again and asked, "Now that the saint is a woman, what do you think?" ”

"What about women, they are all human beings, if they are capable and talented, and can develop the country strong, what does it matter if they are men or women, not to mention that men and women are human beings, and what is the difference between high and low, if there are no women, where are we from."

Xie Shiyun secretly clicked this item a few times in her heart, and inexplicably added a little bit to that person.

The re-examination is divided into several sessions, and after getting acquainted with Ma Ke that day, the three of them are all in and out of the same exam, eating together, discussing topics, talking about the country and the people.

On the last day of the exam, Xie Shiyun and Shen Sijun didn't see Ma Ke come at the agreed place for a long time, and they were about to enter, so they had no choice but to go to find Ma Ke.

After a few days of getting along, the three of them already have some understanding, and they can't find anyone in the places they often go to, so they plan to go to Ma Ke's house to see, it's impossible to oversleep, and everyone is diligent in learning Ma Co, so what's wrong?

Thinking of this, the two couldn't help but speed up their steps, and sure enough, at the corner of the alley in front of Ma Ke's house, Ma Ke was found.

At that time, Marco was crouching on the ground talking to a half-man tall child, and he didn't know what to say, but he found that the child was wiped from his tears by the test, and finally handed something to Marco in his hand, and then ran away.

"Let's go, let's see what's going on."

The two quickened their steps and walked to Marco's side.
