Chapter 18: Try Again
"Butcher! Your son is better than you, and he is going to take the martial arts test! I can't say that your family can produce a martial champion! Zhou Gongzi didn't think it was a big deal to see the excitement.
The butcher was already angry, and when he heard this, he was even more annoyed.
If you don't take the imperial examination, you have to take the martial arts! When you are what you are? What is Lao Tzu? Do I feed you and drink for you, do you make you angry with me?
"I can't kill you rabbit cub, I think you still dare to talk nonsense!" Yi Butcher held up a feather duster and roared.
Yi Yuan still insisted on his own opinion, rubbing his ass and not forgetting to respond to his father: "I want to serve the country and join the army!" I'm going to do Huo Qu's disease! ”
"I still have to do Huo Qu's disease! Do you know who Huo Qu's disease is? Stand still, you rabbit, and see if I can kill you! The butcher was so angry that he almost went to get the pig-killing knife, but fortunately he was stopped by his daughter-in-law.
Dong Guo Ziyu hurriedly broke into the crowd, and after grabbing Yi Yuan, he also stopped the butcher.
"Uncle Yi, Yi Yuan only saw this notice when he went to the yamen with me, if you want to say that there is a fault, it is all my fault, don't fight, so many neighbors are here, it will hurt your face."
"A pig killer still has face?" Zhou Gongzi said at the right time.
"Zhou Gongzi, I think you can indeed consider taking the road of martial arts, after all, you are not the only one who can't pass the Tongsheng exam." Dong Guo Ziyu choked up, causing laughter.
Zhou Gongzi was good at face, listening to the ridicule in his ears, as well as the remarks that seemed to be in the dog's stomach after more than ten years of reading, he left with a hideous face, and glared at Dong Guo Ziyu fiercely before leaving.
After Zhou Gongzi left, the butcher's mood was much more stable, but his attitude was still very resolute, and Yi Yuan was definitely not allowed to carry out martial arts.
In fact, Dongguo Ziyu can understand, the three generations of the old Yi family have been passed down alone, and it doesn't matter if he can't pass the exam, if he is admitted, he has been fighting every year for all these years, and maybe he will die on the battlefield, he is really afraid that his son will be gone.
"Otherwise, I'll take Yi Yuan home for two days, so I can have a good talk with him, Uncle Yi, what do you think?"
Where would the butcher disagree, he took a bunch of meat out and stuffed it into Dong Guo Ziyu's hand, "You must help me talk about this bastard boy!" ”
"High in the Sky"
A turmoil turned invisible, Fan Zhong and Zhu Qizhen stood in the distance, and when they saw this scene, they said: "Why don't you go to their family and talk to them, don't ruin such a good seedling." ”
Zhu Qizhen shook his head and said, "Each has its own fate, and you can't force it." ”
However, it seems that this reform of martial arts is still effective.
In order to prevent civil officials from obstructing him, Zhu Qizhen deliberately confessed after returning and asked major newspapers to publish the news of the military reform.
At the same time, all the storytelling stalls, teahouses and restaurants have people who can promote the martial arts system.
One of the most striking is that if you have passed the martial arts examination, you must be the identity of the new army, which means that you will have a piece of land that no one can take and move, and for a while, there are many people who are willing to move.
As for Yi Yuan, after arriving at Dongguo's house, he also opened his heart to Dongguo Ziyu.
"Brother Ziyu, I'm really not impulsive, you know, I like all the famous generals.
Sun Tzu's Art of War and Sun Bin Art of War are the books I read the most, and my biggest dream is to become the champion of the Ming Dynasty! Don't convince me! ”
Dongguo Ziyu really didn't have a good time to speak when he heard it, so he said: "Don't worry, I also want you to think about it again, you are still young, there is no need to make a decision so early."
Besides, even if you want to participate, you can do so many subjects? The stone lock is worth 200 pounds! ”
When the ambitious Yi Yuan heard this, his original firmness froze, he just thought about taking the martial arts exam, but he forgot that he still had the possibility of failing the exam......
Dong Guo Sheng happened to appear, holding the dishes and chopsticks and shouting that the two of them appeared, and set up a table with Zhang Jingye's family.
"This is not a kid from the Yi family, I heard that you are going to be a soldier? Come on, come on, call Uncle Sheng, I'll tell you about it......"
On the ninth day of February, the county exam began, Yi Yuan sent Dong Guo Ziyu into the examination room, and finally mustered up the courage to return home.
As soon as he entered the door, the cold face on the butcher's face dissipated slightly, but he did not speak first because of the majesty of his father.
"Whew...... Dad, I want to talk to you! ”
It didn't take long for Yi Yuan to go out of the house again, and when the mother hurriedly chased him out, looked at her son who was far away, and stretched out her hand to pinch her husband's arm.
"You said you, your son was scolded by you as soon as he came back! What do you want? I don't want to think about it, don't you ”
The butcher explained with a look of grievance: "How can there be, my son said that he was like taking a martial arts test, I asked him to go to the master to learn!" ”
As soon as she heard this, the daughter-in-law became even more angry, and the five fingers went out together, and the butcher who pinched wanted to die.
"Okay, I just quarreled with you, you are going to send your son to the barracks, I really misjudged you, that kind of place, can you still come back if you enter?" As he spoke, the tears in his eyes couldn't help but flow downward.
The butcher hurriedly hugged his daughter-in-law and comforted him softly, and it took a long time to see the sunny day.
"Really, you said that you just agreed to let your son suffer and die!" The butcher's daughter-in-law said implicitly threatening.
Of course, the butcher nodded again and again, hating to give off his head.
"Hey, he's so young, can he endure this hardship? Phew! Can't eat the best! The butcher's daughter-in-law lost her mind in worry, and then said, "Don't let me go quickly, someone will buy meat!" ”
The butcher didn't take care of his daughter-in-law, but hugged him and walked quickly, "While my son is away, let's see if I can make another one!" ”
……
The Yi family's meat stall didn't open for a day, until Dong Guo Ziyu, who had finished the county exam, knocked on the door of the Yi family, and Father Yi told Dong Guo Ziyu that Yi Yuan hadn't come back yet, and went to learn martial arts.
"Then can I stay in Yiyuan for another day?" Dong Guo Ziyu asked.
"I can't ask for it, ah, Ziyu, can you ask me if I can still agree? I'm relieved that he's with you! ”
Saying goodbye to Uncle Yi, Dong Guo Ziyu thought about the other party's expression, and the more he thought about it, the more strange he felt.
"Brother Ziyu! You're done! He didn't go far, and Yi Yuan appeared covered in sweat.
The two said a few words to each other, and Yi Yuan proposed: "Let's go to the play!" Celebrate for you! ”
Dong Guo Ziyu has been reviewing hard and under a lot of pressure these times, so he agreed after thinking about it.
A few years ago, there was a troupe in the capital, and the best thing was the West Chamber, and I couldn't help but sing well, and this troupe was also very distinctive, and more than half of the people in it were disabled.
As long as there is a reputation and characteristics, it is easy to be remembered, the beginning of the hunt and the later prosperity, the young class owner is still a businessman, and it is becoming more and more prosperous.
Before I entered the door, I saw many people who looked like students appeared at the door, thinking that the purpose of coming was the same as the two of them.
The two looked at each other and smiled, and walked into the crowded theater with anticipation.
