Chapter Twenty-Seven: The Mountain Chief
Early the next morning, Gan Sui and Banxia took the package to the county office, and Lin County Ling also happened to come out, watching Gan Sui come and give some instructions, and a few words of encouragement, the group began to set off.
Lin You also got the opportunity after grinding with Lin Xian Ling for a long time, squeezing his eyebrows at Banxia, Banxia just didn't understand, and smiled slightly, Lin You also wanted to squeeze into the car that squeezed Gansui and Banxia, but the car was too small, so he could only look at each other with his old son and hate each other.
Lin Xianling felt that there was really a sense of disparity in comparison, and he didn't feel how bad his son was before, but now when he looks at Gan Sui and then at his own son, it is a world of difference. Look where it's not pleasing to the eye.
Lin You also felt that his Lao Tzu had become more and more strict recently, and he was scolded for everything, the key was that he couldn't mention Gan Sui yet, and he Lao Tzu felt even more dissatisfied with him when he mentioned Gan Sui, just like now that he found out that Gan Sui was his own son, and he was the one who was dropped back then, Lin You was also tight-hearted, and the father and son stared at each other, snorted and looked out the window.
It takes more than an hour to travel from the county seat to the government carriage, and Banxia felt very novel when she just got in the carriage, and she lifted the curtain to look east and west, and she didn't care about her, and she played by herself. On the other side, he silently recited the text he had read yesterday. The imperial examination is indeed more difficult than he imagined, especially if he has not received the education of the ancient system, the things that need to be memorized seem messy and complicated, but fortunately, he is good at combing, and it took a few months to barely straighten out all the points that need to be memorized now, and the rest is only what needs to be memorized, and he has the ability to never forget.
However, after a stick of incense, the freshness of the middle summer began to pass, the ancient official road was not like the modern greenery with all kinds of beautiful decorations, this remote small town, some are just bare roads and a little bushes. What made Banxia even more painful was that the roads in ancient times were not smooth, and the carriage did not have a shock-absorbing function like modern cars, and a bump made Banxia feel a pain in his butt.
Banxia saw that Gan Sui was seriously endorsing, and he was embarrassed to disturb him, so he could move his muscles and bones in a limited space. As soon as Gan Sui opened her eyes, she noticed that she was unwell.
"Isn't it panicking?"
Banxia is not too embarrassed, "A little." ”
Gan Sui took her in his arms and let her sit firmly on his own, he had been in a carriage once before and knew the discomfort of this kind of bumpy feeling, so he found a topic to chat with her: "Later, we will go to the city to find an inn and put the luggage in, you and Lin You go shopping together, although that kid has an unreliable personality, but the force value is not bad, he can protect you and help you carry things." If you see something you want to buy, don't save it, there will be silver in no time, enough for us to spend both. ”
Banxia responded one by one, and talked about finding a house in Fucheng: "What kind of house do you like?" ”
"It doesn't have to be too big, it's better to be able to sell things in the front and live in the back, so you don't have to find a house to stay."
Banxia thought for a while, "It's best to be around the academy, the food in the academy must not be very good, your physical foundation is not good, it took half a year to grow up, if you lose weight when you go to the academy, this is really a loss." ”
Gan Sui looked at Banxia's expression and felt coke: "I go to the academy to work hard, where can I manage the food and accommodation." ”
"How can it be done, there are still many parents who accompany their children for nutrition in modern times, which shows the importance of food and accommodation. That's it, the house you are looking for can't be too far from the academy. ”
This is also the intention of Zhenghe Gansui, he also wants not to be too far away from Banxia, although Banxia can protect himself, but he is simple-minded, and his heart is so soft, if he meets those who are really vicious, he is not an opponent at all, and he is not at ease if he is too far away. "Then it's decided, there's no need to worry about the house, we'll stay here for two days, I'll accompany you to see more tomorrow and then settle down." You will first familiarize yourself with the familiar place with Lin You today, and go to play first. ”
The two of them talked while walking, and the laughter of Banxia from time to time came out of the carriage and into Lin You's ears, and Lin You felt that the carriage was even more depressed. His father also teased him: "Why do you want a daughter-in-law too, I'll ask your mother to help you find a wife when you go back." ”
Lin You was anxious: "I don't want it, my mother is all about the eldest lady of the scholarly family, all of them have their noses raised higher than the sky, and their words are like gifts, and they always say something, and they can't understand it." ”
"I also think that your mother's eyes on the girl are not very good, I think General Guo's granddaughter is good, what do you think?"
"That...... I don't want it, I don't want ......" Lin You's head shook like a rattle, who dares to ask for that woman, she whips people at every turn, and she can't afford to provoke her.
"I still have to study hard, but I can't miss my future because of my children's personal feelings, how can you be worthy of my ancestors and ancestors of the Lin family at that time."
Lin Xian Ling directly knocked on his head with a violent shudder: "You are still embarrassed to mention to me the ancestors and ancestors, who have been memorized by a military book for more than half a month, or will only memorize the first few pages, and they will be stumbled, the ancestors and ancestors know that there are unmotivated descendants like you, and they are estimated to be so angry that they can jump out of the grave." ”
"Then you can't blame me, the ancestors used to kill pigs, maybe my family doesn't have the talent to read at all, you can only read can only show that you are talented, I won't, I can only say that I have inherited the fine tradition......"
Lin You was still poor, Lin Xian Ling took off the soles of his shoes and whipped him, he rushed to the place in front of him to catch the car, and shook his legs freely. So it's better to sit in the carriage than here.
When I arrived in the city, I found an inn and put my things, and I hurriedly left with a few words of advice and Lin County.
Banxia and Lin You glanced at each other, and saw that the bear child in each other's eyes was no longer an adult, and they started a half-day tour of the provincial capital.
Gan Sui is obviously not as easy as them, Lin Xian Ling is even more uncalm than Gan Sui about Gan Sui wanting to see his direct boss, from the moment Gan Sui got in the car he began to chatter, no matter how big and small the head is the way, listening to Gan Sui's scalp numb, it seems to understand a little bit why the Bull Demon King committed suicide in "Journey to the West".
When I came to the mansion, I found that this formation was far more grand than I imagined, and the inner hall of the mansion was filled with more than 30 county officials from various surrounding counties.
Just as he was about to salute, the husband helped him up: "No need to be polite, no need to be polite. Gan Xiucai is really young and promising. ”
"The adults praise falsely, and the students also learn from the words of their predecessors in the books."
"It's not easy to be so humble, it's not easy at a young age, I came to you today, first, because there is a gift from the saint, and you need to receive it, and second, I want to ask some farming things, I heard that the rice you grow looks better than other families, why is this?"
"The students raised fish in the rice fields, which is related to the proposal to eat the insects under the leaves and roots of the grain during the growth period to ensure the growth of the grain, and secondly, the feces excreted by the fish are also fertilizer for the grain. The fish raised can be sold to fish shops, and one field can be used for two incomes, which is also a good way to increase farmers' income. ”
"This method is good, everyone remember it, go back to the village to see if there is something that can be used in the field, and try to use it." The people of the government have the feeling that good students come to give lectures and let bad students have some experience. The county order is still listened to with relish.
"Does Gan Xiucai have any other experiences to talk about?"
"The same principle can be used at the edge of the pond, mulberry trees can be planted at the edge of the pond, mulberry leaves can be used to raise silkworms, silkworm sand can be used to feed fish, and the silt accumulated from the waste produced by the fish can be used to provide fertilizer under the mulberry tree, everything can be used many times, ensuring the maximum utilization of resources." This meeting obviously turned into an academic exchange conference for Gan Sui alone. Gan Sui's mouth was dry, and the adults at the bottom were anxious to take notes for several large articles, and they were full of ambition one by one, waiting to go back and do a big job.
"Of course, the most important thing is that each region must find its own path of development, and cannot blindly feel that this is good and just copy the past, which will not only not have good results, but also have a bad impact, to put it bluntly, what the people need, is to live a life of food, clothing, warmth and tranquility, as long as they can live such a life, he feels that this is a good official."
After Gan Sui finished speaking, many people were still thinking that Lord Fujun was very satisfied, and praised and praised Lin Xianling, Lin Xianling had not shown his face much for many years, and this time he was in such a big limelight in front of his boss, he was simply happy to fall from the sky, and Gan Sui's eyes were eagerly as if he had been lost for many years.
Gan Sui got goosebumps when he saw it, and went back to the inn with the reward silver, there was a reward on the saint, and he couldn't help but say that the lord of the mansion also rewarded a hundred taels to encourage Gan Sui to study and win glory for Liangcheng Mansion in the future.
Lin Xian Ling also wanted to express it, but two days ago, Mrs. had just found that her small vault had been scavenged, and now his purse was cleaner than his face, and he wanted to express that he had more than enough heart but not enough power, so he had to praise Gan Sui with words.
Gan Sui obviously didn't care much about these words of praise, and Lin Xianling saw his calm appearance and appreciated such a pampering and humiliation, why is it not his own child, or how to say that the child is always good from other families.
Lin Xian Ling said another thing: "I heard You'er say that you are going to live in the city after the autumn harvest?" ”
"There is this plan, there was not enough silver before, but now with the silver, I am going to set up a small house in the provincial capital, let the lady be in the city, and I will go to the academy to study."
"I used to think that the academy in the county was good, but today it seems that it still buries you, you can take a look at it in the provincial capital, the Yunyin Academy here is very good, the mountain chief is the teacher of the saint today, and his academic character should be first-class in the world. However, you need to pass the entrance exam to get in, or talk to the prefect, after all, your foundation is worse. ”
"It's okay, you don't need to tell the adults, just let the students go on their own."
Young people are arrogant, and Lin County's order does not persuade much, anyway, there are many academies in the provincial capital, and there is still room for choice.
The two of them were not talking, so Gan Sui put five hundred and fifty taels of silver tickets into his pocket, took fifty taels of silver and put them outside, and went back to the inn to find Banxia.
