Chapter 44 Privately Revealing the Emperor's List
This black nest head is made of wild vegetables and rice bran, and there is no fine grain at all.
There was no one in the house to cook for the time being, and all the food was bought from outside.
Sometimes it's Ning Xin who buys it, sometimes it's Alin who buys it.
It's okay for Ning Xin to buy it, she is more generous.
But Alin knew that his status was low, and he ate a lot, so he wanted to save some money for the main family.
So he bought fine grain for Ning Xin and Ning Chengwen, and spent two cents for himself to buy a basket of black nest heads and come back to gnaw.
Unexpectedly, the little lady's front teeth were lost all of a sudden, and he was at a loss in panic.
Ning Xin looked at the little milk tooth on the table here and sighed.
It's nothing to lose teeth, but when you come and go, it's your front teeth, how embarrassing it will be for her to go out after she has a tooth!
"Okay, Xin'er has also reached the age of losing her teeth, and she will grow them in a few days."
Ning Chengwen couldn't stand Ah Lin's scared look.
He patted Alin on the shoulder stiffly and said, "In the future, you can eat whatever we eat, since you are a subordinate of my family, you still have to take care of the food." β
He himself is from a bitter background, and he can understand the suffering of people like Alin.
In addition, people took care of him for several days, although the method was a little awkward, but the person was still good.
He reluctantly accepted this subordinate who was bought back for two taels of silver, and said a few words of comfort.
Alin was so excited that he almost ran two laps on the spot.
The black face was also full of gratitude.
The main house is so nice! The young master and the little lady are both bodhisattvas! He must serve them well in the future!
But what Ning Chengwen never expected was that this product was too edible.
In one meal, he finished eating six buns and four steamed buns.
β¦β¦ Who knew he could eat so much!!
That's enough for him and Xin'er to eat for a day!!
But fortunately, Alin eats a lot and is active enough.
After Ning Chengwen's health is better, he doesn't need to follow him.
He had nothing to do, so he waited for the government test list every day, wanting to make a good contribution.
Finally, it was the day of the release of the list.
Alin didn't sleep all night excitedly, and he was ready to go out to see the list at dawn.
He must be the first of all the candidates' families to come back and report the news!
Ning Xin got up at night to go to the toilet and was startled when she saw a dark shadow rushing to the door.
"Little Miss, it's me, Alin!"
Ning Xin rubbed her eyes and asked him angrily what he was doing out.
After hearing what he said, it was really angry and funny.
"It's not the first to go and get the first place."
Alin said seriously: "Look at the list early, and the young master will be relieved as soon as possible." β
Although Ning Chengwen didn't say it, he didn't answer the last policy question well, which still left a lot of shadows in his heart.
It was also because the county tried to win the first case, which made him have great hopes for the government test.
Not only her father, but even Ning Xin herself felt that it would be good if her father could take the test for six yuan and the first.
Therefore, her father has been pretending not to care for the past few days, but she is actually quite uncomfortable.
Ay.
She waved her hand and told Arin to go early and return early.
Ning Xin went back to make up for another sleep, and when she woke up again, the sky was already bright.
Ning Chengwen's body has completely healed.
He was reluctant to buy and eat outside, so he cooked porridge and eggs in the kitchen early in the morning and asked Ning Xin to get up and eat.
The father and daughter sat at the table and had breakfast, and no one mentioned the matter of the government trial list.
Ning Chengwen seems to have decided that he has failed to pass the case, so his mood has been very low.
Ning Xin couldn't stand the silent atmosphere, and chose a topic: "Huainan Academy has already made a decision, saying that Daddy can enroll at any time, does Daddy want to come after the entrance examination, or will he come after the college examination?" β
The content of the prefectural examination is roughly the same.
Ning Chengwen did well in the first two subjects, and it is okay to review by yourself during the period before the college exam.
But they have already bought a school district house, and Ning Xin thinks it is better to go to the academy.
"Xin'er decides, Daddy will listen to you."
Ning Chengwen took a sip of porridge, and his tone was stupid.
He suddenly felt that he was really useless.
Except for the Wen Shu exam, everything else in the family seems to be Ning Xin's doing.
Whether it is writing a script to make money, or buying a house to go to school, she has thought of all the things she should think about and has done it.
But now, he can't even pass the test, he's really useless!
Ning Xin also noticed his mood swings.
This is to attribute his failure to his ability.
There's a concept in psychology called learned helplessness, which is what he says.
They think they are not capable enough, and they are powerless to change the status quo.
Looking at Ning Chengwen's listless appearance, Ning Xin sighed silently.
Damn, it's not as hard to lead a whole graduating class as one-on-one now.
In charge of study, style, food and clothing, we must always pay attention to psychological problems.
Whose six-year-old child is as tired as her! Thanks to the fact that she has a core in her twenties.
Ning Xin leaned in with a smile on her toothless face, wanting to talk to her father.
But at this moment, I heard a roar from outside the door: "Young master, the list is here!" β
It's Arin!
Ning Chengwen stood up from his seat and ran to open the courtyard door.
Ning Xin followed with her little short legs.
Let's see what the test looks like first, and then it's too late for psychological counseling.
"What's going on?"
The courtyard door opened, but her father was stunned in front of the door, and Ning Xin hurriedly ran back to look.
As a result, I was also shocked by the scene outside the door.
There are a bunch of people standing outside the door, you chase me, you fight for me, it's not lively.
And the core of this snatching is a list in the hands of her family descendant Alin.
List??
Let him go to see the list, why did he snatch it back??
"Young master, little miss, look, is there a name on this!"
Alin relied on his strong body, blocked the people behind him, tore open the list and handed it to Ning Chengwen.
"You can't tear the list off the list! If you can't read, you ask others! β
"Let me see if my young master is not!"
"The official will take you away in a moment, idiot!"
The people behind him scolded and scolded for being so lively, Ning Xin was too short to see the names on the list at all.
But she pieced together and guessed the cause and effect.
It was probably Ah Lin who went to see the list, but forgot that he was illiterate and couldn't recognize Ning Chengwen's name.
He was afraid of delaying things, so he pulled the list back.
Yes! Isn't this a bit too naΓ―ve?
A pair of big hands picked her up, and immediately after, Ning Xin met Fourth Uncle Yu's blue and black face.
"Uncle? Grandpa Lee? β
Fourth Uncle Yu frowned: "Where did you hire such a fool to come back, isn't this causing trouble to your family!" β
Seeing that several officials with knives were already coming this way, Ning Xin shouted anxiously: "Daddy, have you been hit!" β
Anyway, it's already been pulled back, and no matter how you look at the rankings, you have to look at the rankings and return it.
Besides, this kind of holding the emperor list in her hand is estimated to be her father.
Ning Chengwen was protected by Ah Lin, and surrounded a group of people, but he didn't hear it.
Li Gui hurriedly said: "I've been hit, your father has been hit again!" I saw it at a glance! β
The crowd spontaneously moved out of the way, and several servants walked to the door.
One of them kicked Alin down, and snatched the imperial list in Ning Chengwen's hand, and said coldly: "Privately expose the imperial list, do you know how much of a sin this is!" β
