Finally caught the sound of bells and drums, the exam finally dispersed, the candidates poured out, Xu Qian also carried the test blue out with the flow of people, out of the county school, and saw many carriages, horses and sedan chairs at the door to pick up people, those little guys in green clothes and small hats, one by one looking forward to their young master coming out.

These are the children of rich and noble families, and ordinary people don't have this pomp, most of them scattered away, that Xu Shen squatted at the door, his eyes looked for Xu Qian's figure in the crowd, and when he really saw Xu Qian, he hurriedly beckoned: "Good nephew, come." ”

When he entered the examination room, he was just a nephew, but now a good word has been added to the front, which makes Xu Qian very uncomfortable.

Xu Shen took Xu Qian's test blue, and said with a smile: "Just now, when you were taking the exam, a few errand officers who came in and out handed over the message, saying that you are very favored by the county's teachings?" In this way, this child test should be quite promising. ”

Xu Shen asked Xu Qian tentatively.

Xu Qian didn't think so, he couldn't pass the Tong Sheng test, then he would never count on reading to make a career, the only thing that couldn't be up or down at the moment was the ranking.

Immediately, Xu Qian thought of these rumors that these teachings favored him, and he couldn't help but admire the Su County Order a little more, don't look at the Su County Order is a scholar, in this matter it is like becoming a fine, obviously he has the heart to protect it, but he let those words of appreciation be said by the teachings, and even if he is a blockbuster at that time, everyone will only think that his article is too good and has been valued by the teachings. Even if someone knows that they have a good relationship with Su Xianling, so what? Su Xian Ling didn't say a good word about Xu Qian.

"These are all rumors, don't be gullible, before the list is released, everything is empty." Xu Qian didn't dare to hold it up at this time, if he was on a business trip when the list was released, how would he go to see people in the future?

When the two returned home, Xu Qian asked Zhao Mengting to prepare wine and food, and after dinner, Xu Shen stayed at Xu Qian's house that night, and went back to the township early the next morning.

Before leaving, Xu Shen glanced at the nephew and instructed: "Your father is struggling to support in the township, and the prince is angry, and now the clan has become a pot of porridge, but you don't have to worry too much, studying hard is the most important, there is an uncle in the clan, and he can barely support it." Uncle is different from those who don't know, our Xu family has been engaged in the cheap industry for so many years, although life is quite stable, but it is not a way to go on like this, and the current situation is good. Okay, you don't have to send it, go back to studying. If you are lucky enough to win the county exam this time, there will be the government exam and the hospital exam next, if you want to be famous, where is it so easy, the fame of the Ming Dynasty is real, so you have to be extra careful. ”

Xu Qian wrote them down one by one and said, "Uncle let's go." ”

Send Xu Shen away, and the next few days will be to wait patiently for the county school to come out.

Xu Qian was in an irritable mood, where could he still read a book, he sat at home in a daze every day, Zhao Mengting persuaded him to go out for a walk, Xu Qian did have this thought, but then he thought about it, now when he goes out, what should he say if he meets an acquaintance?

The county examination is Xu Qian's first step into the imperial examination, this step is particularly important, in fact, it is not only him, the gentry of the entire Qiantang County and the scholars of various townships, which is not looking forward to it, everyone is thinking about whose teenager is expected to be selected, and some people are speculating about whose children can be at the top of the list in this year's county examination.

After all, Qiantang is a big county in the imperial examination, and if you can stand out in the county examination, it is not a problem to show your talents, and there is great hope for you to raise people, and the first county school is enough to lead people to infinite reverie for this Qiantang where there are many people who read like dogs and gentry who walk all over the place.

Xu Qian had insomnia, early in the morning, he ran to find Zhao Mengting with black circles under his eyes, and said: "Mengting, I suddenly thought of it, I used the wrong word and sentence when undertaking the topic, when I wrote the topic, and the people of the world, all have the love of the old and the young, this old and young are not used well, and the old and young should be used to better fit the topic, this is over, even if someone secretly promotes, but there is such a big mistake in the article, if there is a better article, I am afraid that I will have to squeeze me down." ”

Zhao Mengting comforted him.

But after lunch, Xu Qian's self-confidence swelled again, and said: "I also read the article on the first place in the county examination in Qiantang County last year, and it may not be as good as my article."

The chapter is the Lingyin school's method of breaking the topic and inheriting the topic, focusing on novelty, and there are one or two inappropriate words and sentences, which is not surprising. ”

Zhao Mengting was dumbfounded.

At night, Xu Qian sighed again and again, and sighed: "Dad pinned all his expectations on me, if I fall to Sun Shan this time, I really don't know what he will look like?" ”

This kind of remarks are sometimes self-confident, sometimes humble, and inferior, stirring Zhao Mengting to live in peace, in the middle of the night, Zhao Mengting was sleeping, but was awakened by a few bumps, through the paper window, she saw a lantern outside the courtyard, she went out with her clothes and shoes, and saw Xu Qian standing alone in the courtyard in a daze, stunned.

Zhao Mengting went up to persuade him: "The son is still young, even if the horse stumbles, there is a chance to take the test again, and now the list has not been released, why bother?" ”

Xu Qian glanced at Zhao Mengting stunned.

That gaze flashed with a thrilling **.

Xu Qian sneered, looked at Zhao Mengting and said, "You say, my father even harmed his own clansmen, for what?" For this fame, I study hard every day, what is it for? In order not to be looked down upon again? Others can make a fortune in one day, why can't I? I am also flesh and blood, why is it not that someone else kowtows to me, but that I bend down to someone else? This time you must be admitted, not earth-shattering, and by no means obscure. ”

Zhao Mengting sighed, in fact, Xu Qian's feelings, she understands the most, she is the daughter of a businessman, the status of a businessman is low, and Xu Qian's status is no different, it is precisely because of this that she especially wants to change, read and study, isn't what she wants to be famous? Some people are reading, and they boast that they have already seen it, and they look like idle clouds and wild cranes, which is hypocrisy.

Xu Qian sighed and said gently, "What, did Fang Cai's words scare you?" ”

Zhao Mengting shook her head and said: "Childe, this is the true temperament, much stronger than those hypocrites who are full of desires and desires." ”

"Really?" Xu Qian suddenly became happy again and said, "Okay, go to sleep." ”

After a night of silence, Zhao Mengting got up early in the morning and heard news outside, saying that the county school had released the list.

Hearing the news, Zhao Mengting hurriedly ran to Xu Qian's room, but found that Xu Qian was not there, and went to the hall to look for it, and saw Xu Qian sitting there steadily.

"Childe...... Son...... It's on the list, it's on the list, quick, go and see it. ”

Zhao Mengting was full of excitement, her breasts rose and fell, she was drenched in sweat, and she was in a hurry, so she actually carried her skirt to report the news.

Who knew that at this time, Xu Qian was as immobile as a mountain.

He sat steadily, quietly drinking his tea. The demeanor that was quite a bit of fairy wind and bones seemed to have seen through the world's fame and fortune, and a qiē** became a floating cloud in his clear eyes.

He smiled slightly, smiled calmly and calmly, and said word by word: "What's the hurry, it's already on the list?" ”

Zhao Mengting said: "Yes, it has been released." There's already a discussion outside, why doesn't Childe go and see it? ”

Xu Qian smiled, as if he was sneering at fame, a bit like a celebrity who regarded fame as dung, and said slowly: "Oh, let it go, don't be in a hurry, it's just fame, what's it?" If I go now, it will inevitably make people think that I am keen on fame, and after I am loyal and good, how can people be underestimated? You are busy with your go, I want to cultivate myself. ”

After that, Xu Qian laughed again, and whispered in his mouth: "The world laughs at me for being too crazy, and I laugh at others who can't see through it." I don't see the tomb of Wuling heroes, and there are no flowers and no wine hoeing fields. It's ridiculous, it's ridiculous, those people pursue fame and fortune every day, they don't think about tea and dinner, they want to die or live...... Haha......"

Zhao Mengting was dumbfounded, and secretly despised in her heart: "Yuan Dao is a true temperament, and it turns out that he is also a hypocrite." ”

After waiting for half an hour, Deng Jian's voice came from outside, and Deng Jian almost shouted at the bottom of his voice: "Brother Xu, Brother Xu, you are in high school, you are in high school, you are the first in the county exam, and the first in the Qiantang County exam......"
