Chapter 10 Mingxiang Building

Waiting for Gu Chengyu to carry the examination basket and prepare to leave the door of the examination room. It really rained heavily today, and standing at the door of the examination shed, Gu Chengyu could hear the wails from the candidates. I can't help but be glad that he finished writing and handing in the paper early, otherwise it would be useless to carry an umbrella, the rain was too heavy.

As soon as Gu Chengyu walked out of the door, he saw Father Gu waiting outside the examination room through the rain curtain. Due to the heavy rain and the strong wind during the period, the umbrella he was holding shook from side to side under the heavy rain, and Father Gu used a lot of strength to barely stabilize it.

"Daddy!" Gu Chengyu withstood the heavy rain, ran to Daddy Gu, and hid under Daddy Gu's umbrella.

"You run slower, it's raining too much, where's your umbrella?" Father Gu said loudly to Gu Chengyu.

"Daddy! Brother-in-law! Uncle He! Let's go to the teahouse opposite to take shelter from the rain, the rain is too heavy, and when they come out, we will go to pick them up. ”

Gu Chengyu dragged them to the Mingxiang Building, and when the four of them arrived at the teahouse, the hems of their clothes were soaked.

"Daddy! Why didn't you come in earlier to hide from the rain? If it rains, what can I do if I get typhoid fever? Gu Chengyu complained about Gu's father, angry that he didn't care about his own body.

"Isn't this afraid that you won't see me when you come out? You came out early, I didn't know it would rain today, and the He family kid probably didn't bring an umbrella. The next day, we saw that the sky was not right, so we hurriedly waited at the entrance of the examination room and gave you an umbrella. Just your umbrella? Why didn't I see you come out? Why did you come out early for today's exam? ”

Daddy Gu was also afraid that Gu Chengyu would not find them when he came out, and besides, the Gu family didn't need to save so much now, and there was still money to drink tea in the teahouse, but Daddy Gu was used to saving on weekdays, and he didn't expect it for a while, plus the other two people's families were not very wealthy, so naturally they could save it.

"I didn't bring an umbrella with me when I came out of the school year, and I don't know if it was rained." Uncle He thought about his son, and was a little worried, this is an exam, if the exam paper is wet in the rain, wouldn't it be in vain to take three exams?

"Uncle He, don't worry, I gave my umbrella to Senior Brother He with the consent of the examiner, Senior Brother He's examination shed is in the second row, and it shouldn't rain much."

He Shunian is the only one who doesn't bring an umbrella! Sun Xian is a thoughtful person, and something as important as an umbrella must be carried. And Gu Wanhua and Ye Zhiqiu also listened to his persuasion, and they had the habit of carrying umbrellas as early as the last game.

"Guest, but you want a pot of tea?" At this time, Xiao Er came up to ask. Since you have come to the teahouse, you naturally want to drink tea, and the teahouse is not for nothing.

"Let's get a pot of dragon wells!" Daddy Gu didn't understand tea, and Gu Chengyu thought that since he had brought people in, he would naturally pay the money.

"Hey! Okay! Guest, wait a minute! Xiao Er sang loudly, and immediately shook the rag that was originally on his shoulder.

"This dragon well is not cheap, is it?" Uncle Gu hadn't drunk Longjing before, but it was all thanks to the blessing of the main family, and it was rare to drink it once.

"When you go out, you still can't save some silver, so it's just a good time to warm up with a pot of tea." Gu Chengyu saw that this teahouse was opened near the county government, and the decoration was also a high-end teahouse, if you wanted to order something cheap, it might not be available.

There are already several tea customers in the teahouse, but everyone's attention is still in the direction of the examination room, which should be the candidates' families.

"Senior brother! Here! Come on! Gu Chengyu, they looked down on the second floor of the teahouse, and they could just see the arrangement of the examination room.

Gu Chengyu shouted and waved to Sun Xian, this time Sun Xian came out with He Shunian and Ye Zhiqiu, only Gu Wanhua was missing.

"Seiyu! You're still so early, it's raining so much. As soon as Sun Xian and the others entered the teahouse, they wrung the robe under the water and went up to the second floor.

"You're all out, it's time for Brother Hua!" Uncle Gu's mood was a little heavy, the rain was so heavy, if he finished writing, Brother Hua would definitely come out, and if he didn't come out, he wouldn't finish writing.

"Uncle Gu! The junior brother is in the second row, and the rain will not fill too much, so he should not be hindered by an umbrella. He Shunian saw that Uncle Gu was really worried, and he could understand his feelings, after all, they all came out, and only Gu Wanhua was still taking the exam.

At this time, there was some excitement in the teahouse, after all, the rain was too heavy, and some candidates also went into the teahouse to take shelter from the rain, and some of the acquaintances had already talked about the exam questions.

"This test poem is really difficult! I can only think of the word Bi as the ancient He's Bi, but I forgot which book mentioned this one for a while, it's really a book to use when you hate less! One of the students sighed and shook his head.

"Alas! What if you can remember? It's so hard to mention this word, this time everyone is about the same, I just hope to have a chance to live! I've taken three exams! One of the candidates saw that many people in the teahouse didn't remember the origin of this word, so he thought, when the time comes, everyone's grades will be about the same, and then only the tallest one among the short ones, it seems that there is still a lot of hope for passing the test.

"Seiyu! How did you write this poem? Ye Zhiqiu saw Gu Chengyu blowing on the tea bowl, brushed the lid of the bowl away the tea leaves floating on it, and took a sip of tea gently. The heat coming out of the tea bowl covered Gu Chengyu's gurgling eyes.

Ye Zhiqiu really admired it, and at this point, Gu Chengyu was still so calm.

"It's okay!" Gu Chengyu thought about it for a while, he should be able to be in the top few, but he couldn't say it.

He Shunian also looked at Gu Chengyu, "This master has mentioned it once before, it should be a sentence in "Han Feizi", I can't remember what it is, but I remember the general meaning, so I wrote a few sentences according to that, and I don't know if I can pass it." ”

"Han Feizi" is not the most important book in the imperial examination, which will test whether the candidates read the books extensively.

It is from the sentence of "He's", and the sentence is timid, and the three sacrifices are sad. In fact, even if you don't know the source, you can write poetry. "It's just that some points will be deducted if the source is missing! In ancient exams, the examiner who scored the paper would also give the candidate's test paper a score in his heart, and the full score of a test paper may be ten points, depending on how many points you can get.

Maybe there were too many people to refer to this time, so the examiner thought about this question. For well-read students, it is simple, but for students who focus on the Four Books and Five Classics, it is undoubtedly more difficult, and fortunately, the proportion of poetry in the test score is not large.

"Then I should be not mistaken, and I don't know if I can pass this time, and I don't know the bottom of my heart. Senior Brother Ye should have made it too, right? He Shunian couldn't wait to ask about Ye Zhiqiu's situation.

"I also heard what the master said before, but I remember that it was in "Han Feizi", but I don't know if my poems are passable." The master once said that his poems are somewhat spiritual, and if he spends more time on them, it is possible for everyone to become everyone, but if he wants to focus on the imperial examination, he naturally cannot do so.

And the only student in the private school who can keep up with him in poetry and writing is Gu Chengyu. It's just that Gu Chengyu doesn't often write poems, and he doesn't want to spend time on this, so Wen Fuzi always regrets it.
