Chapter 14: Alternative

When the test paper is unfolded, the first thing that catches your eye is the handwriting.

With a glance, Wang Anshi suddenly frowned.

The pen is messy and there is no order.

Not to mention that compared with the words written on the wooden board that day, even if the maid Xiaocui was asked to write, it would be much better.

Words are like people, and they are the most characterful.

Wang Tan'er was originally full of expectations, but after seeing it clearly, she couldn't help but shake her head, and sure enough, the greater the hope, the deeper the disappointment.

Is this kind of text worthy of the name of a reader?

If the words are not satisfactory, you can only look at the poems.

After reading a song of Yongxue, the father and daughter were stunned, as if they had been struck by lightning.

Xiao Cui was puzzled, and leaned forward to read it out.

The country is general, and the inoue are black holes.

The yellow dog is white, and the white dog is swollen.

Burst......

Steward Hu next to him heard that his ears were almost full of old teeth, and his face turned red under forbearance.

Is this thing a poem?

"Miss, this, this is a limerick, right?"

Xiao Cui asked, revealing a bit of surprise.

"Cui'er thinks it's so interesting, it's catchy, and the best thing is that she talks about snow but doesn't see snow throughout the story."

"Pure nonsense, read the next one."

Wang Tan'er sighed lightly and motioned to quickly uncover it.

Such a poem is really difficult to achieve.

Xiao Cui responded and hurriedly turned the page.

"Miss, the words in this article are even more sloppy."

"Words don't matter, read poems."

Seeing that his father's face was even more gloomy, Wang Tan'er held his forehead and urged.

"Miss, indeed, are you sure you want to read it?" Xiao Cui wanted to speak and stopped.

"Bring it." Wang Anshi took it and read it aloud, "The wind and clouds move the rain and fall into the city, and knocking on the window is like the sound of tiles." ”

Well?

After listening, Wang Tan'er was slightly moved.

"This sentence is quite literary, especially the knock on the window is like the sound of tiles, which can indeed get a glimpse of the skills of word choice and sentence formation, but unfortunately it does not hold the theme."

"Daddy's question is based on late autumn as an introduction, and the autumn rain is slight, not as strong as the wind and clouds, if it is changed to midsummer, it is appropriate."

"yes, when you listen to the rest of the story, you won't think so." Wang Anshi's face became even more ugly.

"Daddy, followed by ......"

"See for yourself."

Wang Anshi snorted coldly and handed it over, falling into deep thought.

Wang Tan'er was puzzled, and began to read from the beginning.

"The wind and clouds move and the rain pours over the city, and the knock on the window is like the sound of tiles. The window tile asks if the rain is tired, and the rain asks if the window tile hurts. ”

Burst......

This time, Xiao Cui couldn't hold back her laughter, and noticed the look in Steward Hu's eyes, so she hurriedly put away the two poems.

"Tan'er, what do you think?" Wang Anshi's brows tightened.

"Daddy, in my daughter's opinion, whether it is words or poems, there is no merit at all." Wang Tan'er replied truthfully.

"You're going to be wrong." Wang Anshi explained, "What my father wants to ask is, why is there a difference between heaven and earth in the poems written by the same person? ”

"There are two possibilities, first, it's not the same person."

Wang Tan'er is extremely smart and straight to the core.

"Cui'er, you can remember it well, when you bought rouge that day, was it Chen Mo who came to participate in the county exam today?"

"Miss, Cui'er thinks so." After nodding, Xiao Cui hurriedly added, "But judging from the literary style, Cui'er is also a little uncertain." ”

"Tan'er, let's talk about the second possibility." Wang Anshi urged.

"The second possibility is that the person is the same person, but ......" Wang Tan'er hesitated slightly.

"But what?"

But for some unknown reason, he didn't want to qualify for the state exam at all. Only in this way can we explain the difference between heaven and earth that Daddy said. ”

"Makes sense." Wang Anshi nodded, "Tan'er thinks, which one is more likely to be?" ”

"My daughter thinks that if Cui'er doesn't look away, it is the second type, and vice versa, it is the first type."

After speaking, Wang Tan'er's eyes revealed incomprehensible confusion.

It's just that in her daughter's cognition, all the scholars in the world are proud of their fame. Is there really a talent with a great mind, and does not seek to be known in the world? ”

Alternative?

"Well said." Wang Anshi smiled as if he had an understanding, "Chen Mo is a scholar, but he went to cut down and burn charcoal to drive ox carts, isn't it something else?" ”

"Daddy thinks he did it on purpose?"

Wang Tan'er still doubts, is there really such a person in the world?

If Chen Mo really regards fame as dung, why bother to suffer from studying?

"Isn't it, just wait and see."

Reassured, Wang Anshi smiled.

"If Chen Mo is still perfunctory in the next three subjects, then he is different, and he will ...... when the time comes"

"What then?" Wang Tan'er asked.

"When the time comes, my father must ask him what he wants to do."

Do?

"A notarization, of course."

At this time, Chen Mo was standing in front of a public house under the jurisdiction of the county government.

According to his plan, the county will officially expand the charcoal business after the trial, so there are two things that must be done before that.

One is to create a brand, and the other is to register a trademark.

Only in this way can we be regarded as gradually on the right track.

However, the door of the public house was closed, and it was difficult to call out a guard, and he looked impatient.

"Judging by your dress, it should be a candidate who came to take the county exam, right?"

"That's right." Chen Mo nodded and asked patiently, "It's just that this has nothing to do with notarization documents, right?" ”

"Why is it okay?" Bingwei pouted, "In the past two days of the county test, the public house will be closed, if you are really in a hurry, go to the tooth shop." ”

"Tooth line?" Chen Mo was a little surprised.

In ancient times, the tooth shop was actually the intermediary of later generations, which was divided into two types: official and private.

Chen Mo knew in his heart that it was not easy for anyone who could do dental work, but what he wanted to do was a formal notarization document after all, and those people could really get it?

As if he understood Chen Mo's thoughts, the guard said more.

"Don't talk about a notarized document, as long as you give enough money, there is nothing they can't do."

"Thank you for mentioning, you can drink this money."

Chen Mo said and handed over a hundred yuan, which had nothing to do with pretending to be rich and arrogant, it was completely a relationship between dredging up.

Hades is easy to see, but the little ghost is difficult.

In the future, when the business becomes bigger, it is indispensable to run here, but as long as you win over one, the entry and exit will be much smoother.

"What do you call a brother?"

Without hesitation, the guard took the money, and his tone softened a lot.

"Chen Mo, the word Shimei, what about you?"

"Xu Liqiu."

"Brother Qiu's name, isn't it the right solar term?" Chen Mo continued to greet him.

"Brother is worthy of being a scholar, you can guess this. I also have a younger brother named Xu Lidong, who is begging for a living in Yaxing, or you should go to him. ”

"That's a good dare, thank you Brother Qiu."

"Be kind to me." Xu Liqiu waved his hand and said an address, "What Lidong can do is to help my brother make a recommendation, I'm afraid I can't help if I'm busy." ”

"The introduction is enough, I'll go over now, and I'll have a chance to talk to Brother Qiu again in the future."

"Brother, walk slowly."

The distance between the teeth was not far, and Chen Mo quickly arrived at the door.

Originally, I came to find Xu Lidong, but I didn't expect to meet an acquaintance.
