Chapter 8: The Hidden Dragon Emerges from the Abyss

After fifteen years of hard work, I am finally about to graduate. But there is still one more work to be done before graduation, and that is to fill in the volunteers.

On the night of the crown ceremony, the uncle and Ouyang Xiaochuan had just started talking about their ideals, and they were said by Ouyang Lei, and the uncle asked in surprise: "Do you want to take the exam?" "According to Mr.'s words, this kid can't even say a few words, and he relies on cheating in every exam, so he still wants to take the exam?

Ouyang said modestly: "There is a way, it is man-made. ”

The first condition for people is that you get to meet the basic requirements. But the uncle didn't say this, and after thinking about it left and right, he said: "Since you have the ambition to take the exam, of course I can't help but agree." However, you have to get married first. ”

"This ......" Ouyang Khan, he really has plans to popularize the marriage law, but it seems that it will benefit his grandchildren, and he will not benefit at all.

Uncle said resolutely: "Needless to say about this matter, even if I force you, as long as you don't get married, I won't give you an identity document." ”

The identity document is equivalent to an ID card, which ordinary people generally do not have, but they must have it if they want to participate in the township test. It's a bit troublesome to get this document, and those who take the exam have to go to the county to find the Guozijian, and those who are businessmen have to be sponsored by the people of their own village to go to the county government to handle it. This is also the Song Dynasty, changed to the Tang Dynasty, and participating in the imperial examination requires the sponsorship of an official to participate. If you become a civil servant in the Song Dynasty, you will have a fish charm. It says what your name is, how many rank officials, and where you are in office.

However, if my nephew goes well in the exam, it will take three years. Isn't this for Xiu'er's sister to stay alive and widowed? ”

"His family Xiu'er is also a scholarly family, an official eunuch, and the virtue of a woman is still there. I think that Xiu'er is a rare good wife. Uncle said: "The eighth day of the first month of next month is the auspicious day of the zodiac, if you have no doubt, I will prepare for Zhang Luo, and then give you a few acres of good land, so that you can have a livelihood." ”

Ouyang knew that as long as he got married, the uncle would be relieved, worthy of his dead father and mother, and worthy of his dead brother. Ouyang could only say: "Nephew listens to the uncle's arrangement." ”

……

Ou Ping said in Ouyang's ear: "The big berto went to the county to find your cousin, it seems that he is going to get you an identity document." ”

"How do you know?"

"What I said in the living room, I'm small, and I don't exist when others say anything."

Ouyang praised: "Good job." ”

"Thank you, young master, for the compliment." Ou Ping said again: "Young master, you promised, take me to see the world after escaping the marriage." ”

"No problem." Ou Ping has never been out of Oujia Village since he was a child, and Ouyang went to the county to take the annual examination last time, which was enough to make him envious for several days, and he pulled Ouyang to ask questions all day long. Although he didn't know why Ouyang wanted to run away from marriage, he had to insist on the young master as the leader, and the young master said that if he wanted to escape, he had to escape, and he had to run away.

"In the past few days, you have taken a turn at the ferry, and as soon as the document arrives, we will intercept it halfway and leave immediately."

"Huh? Young master doesn't pack his luggage? ”

"Stupid! I know a village so well, whoever sees us carrying a big bag knows what we want to do. Uncle gave an order, not to mention that he didn't get on the boat, even if he got on the boat, he could be intercepted. ”

"But we don't have any money."

Ouyang smiled: "Money is not a problem. The most important thing we need to worry about is how to escape. As long as you arrive at the county seat and go to the official road, I guarantee that you will have no worries about food and clothing. ”

……

Uncle Zhang is the only blacksmith in the village, and he was targeted by Ou Ping as soon as he got out of the ferry. Ou Ping greeted warmly: "Uncle Zhang." ”

"Oh Ping!" Uncle Zhang took out a booklet from his arms and said: "This is the identity document of your little master, his cousin asked me to bring it back, you are just right, help me bring it back, don't lose it." ”

"Thank you, Uncle Zhang." Ou Ping muttered in his heart, this little master is also too careful, and he has designed three pick-up methods for himself, and none of the three means of taking the disc are used.

Ou Ping slipped back to the village, found Ouyang, who was helping Mr. 's family chop wood, and made a gesture from afar. Ouyang Huiyi piled up the firewood on the ground and said to Mr. "Sir, let the students do the rough work in the future, you are Mr., you have to take care of your own body." If you're going to get sick, Oujiazhuang will have more white dings. I'll go first. ”

The gentleman sighed and said, "Are you going to run away from the marriage?" ”

"......" Ouyang Khan, the Great Khan, all said that the eyes of the masses are bright, when did Mr.'s eyes become so thief?

"Go ahead, go ahead, I'll explain it to the village chief afterwards." The gentleman sighed again: "Sir, I also ran away from home and did not return home for 30 years, you must not learn from me, come back to visit more." ”

"Yes, sir." Ouyang sighed, in modern times, Ouyang felt that all teachers couldn't get along with him. I went back to ancient times, but I felt that I was so in love with my husband. Quality! The quality of teachers needs to be improved! From this point, it can also be seen that don't take the ancients as fools, people like Mr. who don't ask about the world can see through their little Jiujiu, and they must be careful in their actions in the future.

"Wait!" The gentleman came into the house and took out a money bag and said, "There is always money here, and you should first take the power to be a coil on the road." ”

Ouyang hurriedly refused: "Sir, how can this work." ”

The gentleman stroked his chin and beard and smiled: "This is borrowing, besides, are you afraid that the village chief will not pay it back for you?" ”

"Mr. Xie." Ouyang bowed.

……

The money has always been not a small amount, one stone is more than 100 catties of rice, and it is 500 Wen. Mr. gave more than 200 catties of rice at once, of course, it was very interesting. To say a little gossip here, according to research, one tael of gold is about 3,000 RMB, and one tael of silver is about 300. And one tael of silver is slightly more than the usual money, but the currency of the Song Dynasty is the most chaotic period in history, and it is not a sentence or two that can be explained.

Although there has always been little money, it is no less than a lot of wealth for Ouyang, who has had empty pockets for more than ten years. Ouyang only then deeply understood what it means to send goose feathers for thousands of miles, and the courtesy is light and affectionate. He had always wondered before, it was better to walk a thousand miles to send goose feathers, it was better to ask someone to send a few pairs of shoes, and everyone would be more profitable.

Ouyang erected the bow of the boat, exuding a wind, and his long black and bright hair fluttered in the wind. It's really not that I don't know the pain of long hair. In the Song Dynasty, there was no shampoo, so soaphorn and pig Ling were used. Dignitaries wash their hair every three days and take a bath every five days is already a sign of hygiene. Ouyang has the heart to cut his bald head, but now he is going to take the exam, and the so-called body or something is given to his parents, and it will be a big trouble to deliberately cut his bald head.

"Ou Ping, let's talk about the rules first."

"What rules? Master. ”

"First: brush your teeth twice a day. Second, take a bath every day in the summer and at least once every two days in the winter. ”

"I know that the little master has loved cleanliness since he was a child. I know La. Ou Ping asked, "Young Master, where are we going now?" ”

"Xincheng County." Ouyang rolled up his sleeves: "Go make some money." ”

"How do you earn it?"

"Bet!"
