Chapter 6 The First Reply

Fortunately, everyone has passed, but Gu Wanjiang's ranking is not very good, and he has fallen to the end.

"Master! I really passed this time, and I was still seventy-five. At this time, Gu Wanhua came to Uncle Gu with his hair like a bird's nest, dancing happily.

"Congratulations to Brother Hua! We're all done! Gu Chengyu straightened out his hair, walked to Uncle Gu and them, and said hello to Uncle Gu and Gu Wanhua.

"Really? This is a good sign, our Gu family has passed it, I am really grateful to the ancestors and ancestors. Your classmates did well in the exam, right? They all seem to be very knowledgeable. Uncle Gu was really happy to see that his grandson had passed.

When Uncle Gu and them were talking, He Shunian and they all came back one after another.

As soon as He Shunian saw Gu Chengyu, he stepped forward to congratulate him: "Senior brother! You're really good, and you're number one. ”

"This is only the first game, and there are four more to come!"

Everyone said hello to each other again, and then walked to the inn, everyone had joy on their faces, only Erlang's face was a little unsightly. This time he actually hung at the end, so wouldn't the next exam be even more dangerous. Looking at the high-spirited five people in front of him, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.

In fact, when Gu Chengyu and them were talking, someone next to them had already heard that Gu Chengyu was the first place in this exam, and everyone was surprised that the first place was actually a little baby. And there were students next to him who had seen the quarrel yesterday and told others what happened in the inn, so Gu Chengyu had not finished the county exam, so he became angry. However, this is the first one, and there are many people who have taken the exam, so it has not caused any major repercussions.

The second is the first reply, to test the scriptures and Moyi, this time the proportion of the scriptures is much less, and most of the questions are Moyi.

In fact, Moyi is equivalent to a modern short-answer question, and candidates can answer it as long as they are familiar with the scriptures and various annotations.

This is to test the foundation of the Five Classics, compared with the simple four books, Moyi not only has to recite the full set of the Four Books and Five Classics, but also memorize the annotations inside, which is more difficult. Gu Chengyu took a closer look at it first, and found that the existing questions were relatively obscure. Also, there are so many candidates in the county exam this time, and there are not some difficult questions, how can you brush these candidates?

Lu Zhixian looked at the examination shed below where more than half of the candidates were missing, and sighed in his heart. Their Jingyuan Mansion is not as good as Jiangnan, where the style of writing is at its peak, and more than 300 candidates come at one time, which is indeed more than the previous two times. After glancing around the examination room, Lu Zhixian saw Gu Chengyu who was struggling to write, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart.

In the first game, Gu Chengyu was able to win the first place, in addition to his own strength, there was indeed a result that he cared for. After all, as long as the first scene is all right, it can only depend on how well the words are written! There are many candidates who write good handwriting, and although Gu Chengyu's handwriting is particularly outstanding, it is not that no one can compare with it.

They Qinghe County has been in charge twice in a row, no candidate has been examined, he has been re-elected for two consecutive terms in the position of magistrate, if there are no political achievements this year, then next year's evaluation is difficult to say! He is not a member of a family, he has no connections, and his family is not wealthy, but he also wants to move his ass and climb up!

Seeing Gu Chengyu this time, he felt that it was a good opportunity, if this candidate could continue to take the exam and his literary skills were also outstanding, then why shouldn't they have a prodigy in Qinghe County?

Thinking about it like this, he couldn't sit still, it was better to go down and take a look, this son couldn't let him down! I'm afraid that he has only read four books, and if he is not proficient in the Five Classics, this exam will be sad, after all, he knows the exam questions he has made.

Gu Chengyu had already finished writing on the draft, and was about to copy it on the answer sheet, but out of the corner of his eye, he found that Lu Zhixian was actually standing on his right again, looking at his draft. Gu Chengyu didn't care either, maybe he was a little curious because of his young age, right?

At the moment, he just wants to finish the answer sheet quickly. Today's cake was bought in the inn, and it was as hard as a stone, and when it was blown by the cold wind, he couldn't swallow it, but he decided to hold on and go out to eat some hot food.

When Gu Chengyu finished writing and looked up, he found that Lu Zhixian was no longer in place. I checked the exam paper from top to bottom, looked at the name and seat number again, and found that there were no errors or omissions, so I pulled the rattle next to it.

The candidates sitting in the opposite row watched Gu Chengyu pack up the exam basket and walk towards the hall. The candidates sitting opposite Gu Chengyu all gritted their teeth, why was he the first one again? I wonder if he will be nervous like this? I looked at the test paper that still had half of it, sighed, and could only lower my head and continue writing.

When Sun Xian and the others came out, Gu Chengyu saw that there was some joy on their faces, and he knew that the two of them were confident in their own achievements. Only then did he pull them to buy some hot food on the street first, leaving Gu Chengyi and Uncle Gu, as well as He Shunian's father waiting there.

Gu Chengyu led Sun Xian and Ye Zhiqiu to the steamed bun shop in the county seat, because of the county test, the flow of people in the county increased sharply, and I believe that the steamed bun shop should be open at this time.

The cakes at the inn are made because of the care of the candidates, and because of the large amount, they are made one day in advance. After a day, it is inevitable that the taste will be worse, and the cakes are sold cheaply, so the ingredients may not be so sufficient, and some black noodles are mixed in the middle, and the inn is also to earn some fame.

"The steamed buns in this shop taste good, and the stuffing inside is all big meat." Gu Chengyu remembered that two years ago, when his father and eldest brother came together, they ate the steamed buns of this shop, and until now, he can't forget the taste.

"If you say so, then I'd like to taste it. The cake I ate at noon had no oil and pulled my throat, so I ate a few bites. "The cake is cold, so naturally you can't put oil, and it is also to avoid candidates from having diarrhea.

Ye Zhiqiu felt a little embarrassed, a meat bun is not cheap, it costs two or three dollars! His money is to be saved, and he doesn't know if he can afford to pay for the house.

"Little brother! Give me six meat buns first! Gu Chengyu took out a string of copper plates, counted them, and gave the eighteen texts to Xiao Er.

"I'll invite the senior brothers to eat meat buns, don't rob me with the senior brothers, and the next time you are admitted to Xiucai, you have to invite me to have a good meal." Gu Chengyu knew that Ye Zhiqiu's silver was nervous, and it was impossible to squander the silver to eat meat buns; And Sun Xian's family background is not good, and he will have to take the next exam later, so he can save some.

Sun Xian knew that Gu Chengyu said this on purpose, and he also received his favor, but in fact, he owed him a lot of favors. Ye Zhiqiu felt a warm current in his heart, he was not stupid, of course he could think of Gu Chengyu's intentions.

Holding the meat bun, as soon as I took a bite, the oil from the bun flowed out. The three of them held the bun and smiled at each other, Gu Chengyu thought to himself, maybe this is the innocent friendship between classmates, right? It's just that I don't know if everyone will still have such a friendship after a few years.

He also brought back two buns for each of the remaining people, the buns were made of large buns, and all three of them carried a large paper bag in their hands.

When Gu Chengyu and the others came back, they found that Gu Wanhua and He Shunian had already come out, and they were talking with Uncle Gu at this time.
