Chapter 16: Zhengke County Examination

The various changes in the DPRK and the Central Committee, especially the cabinet as a central organ of power, have a very lagging time in affecting the people at the bottom.

Even in many cases, because of grassroots officials, policies cannot reach the people at the bottom at all.

Now the most discussed in the Beijing division is the counterinsurgency, followed by the current Kexian exam, which child can take the imperial examination, at this time the chest will be high.

Thinkers

On the other hand, if you are the kind of old student who fails to pass the test repeatedly, you will inevitably be ridiculed every time.

"Yo, isn't this the son of the old Zhou family? It's going to be thirty-six this year, right? How do you go to the county office?

Forget to forget, this is to go to the ceremonial room to register for the county exam, right? Have you brought enough money? Did you find the five people who took the same exam?

You don't need my help, that's right! Our classmates have a good life, so don't worry. ”

Not far from the yamen, a butcher who killed pigs greeted a man dressed as a Confucian frequently, if it wasn't for his wife, I am afraid that he would have to walk out of the stall and follow the Zhou Gongzi into the yamen.

"Master, it's okay! People are gone! The butcher's wife was a little embarrassed by the eyes of passers-by.

The butcher doesn't look at the five big and three coarse, but he is a person who is afraid of the inside, and when he saw that his daughter-in-law's face was not good-looking, he immediately put on a smiling face.

"What the lady said is that this is not the two of us studying together in a private school, their old Zhou family looks down on us, saying that our butcher is unproductive.

This week, Childe also called on his classmates to stay away from me, saying that I stink.

Hmph, you can't look down on me yet! How about now, isn't your eldest son Zhou not even a child?

I've seen that there is no talent show in the family for a few years, and their Zhou family is still showing off their might! ”

The daughter-in-law listened a lot, although she was also dissatisfied with the actions of the Zhou family, but she always didn't want to be nagged in her ear, so she turned around and went into the house.

The butcher is very talkative, and he is not angry when he sees his daughter-in-law gone, so he pulls his son's ear and begins to chatter: "You kid, let you study hard and be disobedient, you dance with knives and sticks every day, if you don't study hard, go home and learn to kill pigs and sell meat with me!" ”

The son looks like a butcher, and at the age of fourteen or fifteen, his body is no worse than that of an adult man, and he bares his teeth and begs for mercy, probably because he is used to being beaten, and he doesn't see any grievances.

"Yi Yuan!" A shout interrupted the butcher's parent-child lesson.

"Yo, isn't this Ziyu? What kind of meat to buy, uncle will cut it for you, and then give you a pig's ear! The butcher saw that it was Dongguo Ziyu, and the smile on his face was full.

Dong Guo Ziyu scratched his head a little embarrassed, he knew that Uncle Yi's heart knot, and it was also because of his good grades that he had to be taken care of by Uncle Yi every time he came here.

"Uncle Yi doesn't need it, does Yi Yuan want to participate in the county test this time?" Dongguo Ziyu shook his head a little embarrassed and asked.

At the mention of this, the butcher's face shook, and the hand that had left Yi Yuan was put on it again.

"You kid, you still don't listen to you, look at the people Ziyu is going to take the county exam! You can't even do anything serious all day! ”

Yi Yuan's face was huddled together, and he looked at Dong Guo Ziyu aggrievedly, his eyes full of resentment.

"Uncle Yi, I'm older than Yi Yuan, and if I don't participate in private school, my husband will be driven out, and when Yi Yuan is as old as me, he must be better than me!" Dongguo Ziyu hurriedly made up for it.

Although it is a polite remark, who is not happy to hear others praise their children?

The smile on the butcher's face was even bigger than just now, "This kid can have half of your current knowledge by then, even if I didn't raise it in vain!" ”

The proprietress wiped her hands and came out of the back room, and said with a smile: "Go and meet Ziyu to see the world, and when the time comes, you will also have experience when you sign up!" ”

Yi Yuan, who was pardoned, immediately got out of the shop from below, and while thanking his mother, he demonstrated to his father, so angry that the butcher hated to chase and kill Sanli.

"Okay, okay, Uncle Yi also wants you to have a chance!" Dongguo Ziyu pulled Yi Yuan and persuaded.

Yi Yuan sighed, "I'm really not this material, if you want me to tell me about Huo Qu's illness and sealing the wolf Juxu, I can tell you about three days and three nights, what do you want me to say Sage Yun is more uncomfortable than letting me kill a pig!" ”

Dong Guo Ziyu smiled helplessly, he also knew Yi Yuan's situation, and he was really not interested in reading.

did not persuade Yi Yuan to study hard, but said: "Uncle Yi is counting on you to glorify your ancestors, even if you can't study hard, it is not a waste of the family's offerings."

Besides, why can't you quarrel with your father like this, and others will say that you are not sensible! ”

As soon as he heard this, Yi Yuanhu raised his head like a king inspecting the territory, "Who dares to say me!" It's been a tradition in our family, since my grandfather's time! It's not that I said Brother Ziyu, why are you more verbose than Mr.! ”

"Okay, okay, I won't talk about you, okay? The county government has arrived, do you want to go in with me? Looking at the crowd of people at the gate of the county government, Dongguo Ziyu asked Yi Yuandao.

Yi Yuan was the least afraid of the excitement, and immediately patted his chest and said: "I have to protect you to go in and sign up safely, and at this time, it's time for me to be General Yi!" ”

After speaking, without waiting for Dong Guo Ziyu to speak, Yi Yuan rushed towards the crowd, causing a shout and scolding.

"Who! Stomp on my feet! ”

"You can't look at the dots when you walk!"

"Do you know the queue?"

"You squeeze again! Rush to reincarnate or what? ”

……

Dongguo Ziyu was pulled by Yi Yuan, he couldn't cover his face, where could a scholar be so rude! Although it is indeed fast.

With the help of Yi Yuan, Dong Guo Ziyu almost entered the yamen and squeezed into the registration room, which was registered as the main book of the county ya, and he was also regarded as a big official in the county ya, not an important matter such as the imperial examination, and he would not usually come out to do this kind of basic work.

"Who's making a noise here?" The master book frowned and raised his head, just in time to meet Yi Yuan's eyes.

"Uncle Six!" Yi Yuan said hello, the reason why he dared to go on such a rampage was also because of this sixth uncle.

The anger on the face of the master bookkeeper dissipated instantly, but in the face of the surging public sentiment of the students, he still straightened his face again and said: "Don't be hippie and smile, go over there and find you Uncle Li!" ”

"I'm here to sign up!" Yi Yuan was in a hurry at that time.

"I know! Hurry up! The master bookkeeper glanced at Dong Guo Ziyu.

The two left the registration table, and the scene suddenly burst into laughter.

"This kid is good, at first glance, he is the material for being a soldier!" Zhu Qizhen looked at this scene with interest and said.

Fan Zhong laughed, "This character has a fight with Lao Fan, and when he enters the barracks, he must be the master who is not afraid of heaven and earth, and those veterans have a headache." ”

Zhu Qizhen regained his composure and sighed lightly.

Fan Zhong also hurriedly stopped talking, not knowing that he was wrong.

"It's a pity, why hasn't the notice from the Ministry of War arrived?"

Fan Zhong didn't feel good when he heard it, he and Guo Mao were also friends who had died on the battlefield, and his mood was a lot lower, "It should be soon, no matter how late it is, it won't be tomorrow, the emperor can rest assured!" ”
