Chapter 332: The head of the county

"Oh, what's the matter with you? Let go of me! ”

The man struggled constantly, and finally broke free, and without saying anything, ran away.

Mr. Wu's beard is straight.

When a few people who were talking about it saw that this old man was extraordinary, they naturally didn't dare to conflict with him, and they all scattered.

Mr. Wu didn't want to just forget it, and rushed to find Zhou Wuchang, the master of Yingbao, with his hands behind his back.

He knew Zhou Impermanence this time, but he had not been in contact with it.

But no matter what, the apprentice was slandered, and Zhou Impermanence couldn't be ignored.

When he came to the medical office, it happened that Zhou Wuchang and his eldest apprentice were there, so Mr. Wu told the rumors outside.

As soon as Zhou Wuchang heard it, he probably knew who was behind the ghost.

But if they refuse to admit it, others will be helpless.

Mr. Wu said: "The people who spread rumors have bad intentions, if they are not brought to justice, I am afraid that they will hurt the children of the Jiang family, and the old man will never allow such a thing to happen." ”

His little disciple has just participated in the scientific examination, and his life is still long, and someone is rushing to pour sewage on the Jiang family at this time, which will inevitably affect the future of the little apprentice.

Zhou Wuchang pondered for a moment and said, "I will solve this matter, Mr. Wu doesn't have to worry." ”

Mr. Wu nodded: "It's great that you can make a move, but the old man also has to find a few people to find out what the guy who spreads rumors wants to do." ”

The two of them went to find the source.

On the second day, Jiang Jie came out of the examination room.

From a distance, I saw A-Niang, her sister, and the master all standing on a high place looking this way.

My sister stood in the carriage and waved at him.

Jiang Jie grinned, but unfortunately the test basket on his shoulder was too heavy, and he couldn't run over.

However, A-Niang and her sister had already come to help him carry the book basket.

Sakura handed him an apple: "Here, our apples from last year, I stored them, and there are still citrus fruits at home." ”

Jiang Jie took the apple and nibbled on it.

I was tired in the examination room, I couldn't lie down and couldn't move around at will, and I was cold to death.

"Sister, don't you know, everyone next to me is frostbitten, coughing all the time, and crying non-stop at night." Jiang Jie followed behind Ah Niang and walked towards the carriage.

Mr. Wu also greeted him: "Hurry up and get in the car, let's go back and talk." ”

"Hmm." Jiang Jie climbed into the carriage with the help of Mr. Wu, and Yingbao also got into the carriage.

Chunniang put away her son's test basket and futon and cloak, got into the car by herself, and rushed home.

Meals have been prepared at home, and they are all warmed in the steamer.

Sixi meatballs, braised fish, and cabbage stewed tofu, sauce beef.

The staple food is rice, Chun Niang also wrapped dumplings, and steamed two cages of pork and cabbage buns.

Jiang Jie washed his hands and face after coming back, and hurriedly sat down at the table with the master to eat.

Rice is also served in the trumpet, white rice with tofu and pickles, and meat oil.

When the rice and vegetables were delivered, they were cold, Jiang Jie remembered his master's words, and used the small charcoal stove he brought to heat it for a while before eating, but the taste was really not good.

After eating, Mr. Wu didn't ask anything, and asked Jiang Jie to lie down quickly, sort out some topics by himself, and talk about it when he woke up.

Yingbao went back to his house and used Wudingzhi to prepare medicinal pills for his younger brother, because what he gave him before was eaten by him as a snack, saying that it was refreshing.

The next day, Jiang Jie started the second exam.

After Mr. Wu sent the little apprentice into the examination room, he immediately went to find the head catcher of the county office.

His son has been a county magistrate here for several years, and he has lived in the county government for several years, so he is very familiar with those officials.

Jin Wuyi heard that Mr. Wu asked them to quietly investigate the gossip outside and the situation of Chen Guanglu's family, and patted his chest and promised that it would be done.

A few days later, when the fifth exam was over, Jin Wu also found Mr. Wu and told him that they had found out.

The rumor came from the neighbors of Chen Guanglu's family, saying that Han Yueniang told them.

But Han Yueniang's mother and daughter had already gone to the capital with Pei Shi first, and they couldn't get the main master.

Old Mr. Wu's beard shook angrily, and he turned around to inform Zhou Wuchang of his investigation.

Zhou Wuchang also found out that the rumors came out of Han's mouth, but he was investigating another matter.

Because he found out that Chen Guanglu actually bought cotton and grain for the king of Chengjun in Qinchuan County.

Not only that, but he also found out that the surnamed Chen colluded with the county lieutenant of the county, co-opted the county's Caoyun gang, and prepared to make trouble in Qinchuan County, which was quite a big plan.

But Zhou Wuchang is not ready to report now, he wants to plan and pull out the big fish behind him.

On the day of the release, Mr. Wu asked Chunniang to open the door, and he and his little apprentice sat under the porch to drink tea.

Approaching noon, the newspaper beat gongs and drums and ran over, shouting all the way: "Jiang Jie Langjun of Dongchen Village, Chuanhe Town, the head of the high school county!" Jiang Jie Langjun high school is the head of the county! ”

Chunniang heard someone shouting her son's name and immediately ran out.

I saw two newspapers running quickly, glanced at the door, and arched my hand to Chunniang: "This is Jiang Jie Langjun's home?" ”

"Yes, yes!" Chun Niang was excited beyond words.

The newspaper clenched his fists: "Congratulations to the lady!" Congratulations to the lady! Your family Jiang Jie Xiaolangjun high school is the head of the county. ”

Sakura immediately sent people home: "Come and have a cup of tea." ”

The two newspapers entered the courtyard with a smile, and did not enter the house, saluted Mr. Wu and Jiang Jie, and sat down at the table under the eaves of the porch.

Chunniang hurriedly went to the house and took out two or two red envelopes for the newspaper, and then went to the stove room to make food.

Sakura brought the tea and snacks that had been prepared for the two newspapers.

The newspaper that came to report the good news was to stay to eat and drink, Chun Niang was busy cooking in the stove room, Erni and Jiang Quan came over early in the morning and also helped in the stove room.

After a while, two more batches of newspapers came to report the good news, and Chun Niang also gave each person a red envelope of two taels.

Seeing this, the neighbors came to say goodbye, and Sakura took out candy and snacks for them to grab and eat.

Mr. Wu was very proud, and after showing his head outside for a while, he took Jiang Jie into the house and taught him about the house exam.

In April, I have to go to Fucheng to take the government exam, and that is the most important thing.

Most of the county exams are based on basic knowledge, mainly dictating scriptures, and then looking at the students' calligraphy pen ability.

Only by passing the county examination can you be eligible to go to the official examination of the prefecture, which is invigilated by the governor of the prefecture or the taishou, and the court examination is by the academic and political superintendent appointed by the imperial court.

Next, the county magistrate summoned the top three students in the exam, and was surprised to see Jiang Jie.

The eight-year-old county head is still very rare.

The county order gave Jiang Jie a set of four treasures in the study, plus a book for encouragement, and one set for each of the other two students.

Both of them are not young, one is twenty-two and the other is twenty-eight.

In March, Jiang Sanlang took his son and daughter to Fucheng for the exam, along with Mr. Wu and Yuanbao.

Yuan Bao saw that his little cousin had been admitted to the county case, and he also wanted to try it next year.

He is several years older than his little cousin, he is thirteen years old this year, and his studies are also very solid.

But his teacher felt that he still needed to be trained, so he didn't let him take the exam this year.

But when he learned that his eight-year-old cousin was admitted to the county case, the old gentleman couldn't sit still, and he regretted that he didn't let Yuanbao end this year.

No, I heard that the small case was going to take the government examination first, so Mr. Zhuye asked Yuanbao to follow and gain knowledge.
