24, the seventh county test (for collection, for follow-up)
Besides.
Xinghua is a cook in the Li family, and when he sees Xinghua, he has to go to the Li family to disturb him no matter what.
Of course.
Wei Tu has not forgotten what Li Yaozu wanted to do wrongly back then, but now is not the time for him to mind this matter.
Which is more important.
He can still carry it.
In the eyes of outsiders, he is still a slave of the Li family who has received the favor of the Li family at the moment.
Although he has left his nationality, the "stain" on his birth is difficult to wash away no matter what.
……
Walking through the familiar street with the horse, Wei Tu looked at the scene, object, grass and tree in front of him, and his mood was very different from that of half a year ago.
More leisurely and calm.
Wei Tu guessed that this should be related to the fact that he was recognized by Shan Wuju when he was in the Shan family, and he had confidence in the county and government tests, as well as ...... After learning martial arts to kill people, he is confident in his own strength.
"Go around that alley and you'll get to the front door of Li's house."
Wei Tu looked ahead and led his horse over.
It's just that when he just walked to the street where the Li family was located, Wei Tu was slightly surprised by the Li family's door at the moment.
The Li family started as a traveling merchant a hundred years ago, and they started their business here, but they are just an ordinary rich family in Qingshan County, and there is nothing different.
It stands to reason that it will not attract so many gentlemen to visit.
Seeing Chunlan and Caixia standing at the side gate to welcome the guests, Wei Tu tied the green horse to the tethered horse stake next to the main entrance and walked over.
After inquiry, Wei Tu learned that there was such a battle in front of the door because Li Xingye was on the list when the county posted the regimental case yesterday.
And the ranking is not low.
It is the seventh place in the prefectural examination!
"I'm trying the seventh ......" Wei Tu was really shocked when he heard this.
There are nearly 1,000 candidates in Qingshan County who participated in the imperial examination, and it is not easy to stand out among these 1,000 people and enter the group case, not to mention the good result of winning the seventh place in the main examination.
(In the case of the team, only the top 50 results will be taken.) If you are not on the list, you will be off the list. )
Li Xingye was able to enter the list in the county examination at the age of a weak crown, and ranked seventh, even if he was not as good as the prodigies and county leaders in the county examination, but his results in Qingshan County were extraordinary.
In addition, the seventh in the main exam, the strength is not necessarily weaker than the candidates who are ranked higher, after all, there is no first place in the text, and the county order marking also has preferences.
"If the level of candidates in Qingshan County this session is not bad, Li Xingye is very likely to get a talent show this autumn."
Thinking of this, Wei Tu finally understood why so many carriages from rich and noble families came to the door of Li Mansion today.
Although the fame of Xiucai is not precious, if it is a young talent, it will be very different.
It means that it is very likely to march all the way, and the toad palace will break branches in autumn and spring, so as to ascend to Tianzi Hall at dusk......
After the surprise.
Wei Tu explained his intention to Caixia and asked Caixia to enter to inform Li Tong's that he planned to meet Xinghua and spend the night in Li's house.
"After the county test for Wuju is over, I will leave Li's house and go to Fucheng."
Wei Tu said a specific time.
Hearing this, Caixia nodded and set off in the direction where the inner house was located.
After about half an hour, Caixia walked back, she shook her head at Wei Tu, and said, "Grandma is in the living room to meet the relatives brought by the guests, I have waited for a long time, but I haven't found a suitable opportunity to come forward and talk......
"Or, Brother Wei, you wait at the door for a while, and after a while, when it comes to You, the guests should disperse." Caixia glanced up at the sky and saw the sun and stars in the west, so she said.
"Okay." Wei Tu nodded, left the side door, sat on the tethered stake with the green horse, brushed the mane of the green horse, and waited for the guests of the Li Mansion to leave.
After more than half an hour, after the sky was slightly dark, the side door of the Li Mansion finally moved.
The maid carrying the lantern walked out with the gentlemen and noblewomen who followed behind her, like fiery snakes.
As the carriages and horses moved, the door of the Li Mansion once again returned to its previous silence, and the insects gradually chirped.
Wei Tu saw Li Yaozu and his wife standing at the door to bid farewell to the gentleman, he led the horse and walked over, bowed slightly, and said his intention.
"Grandma, Brother Wei came early in the morning, but you were not idle just now, so I didn't find a chance to give you a chance." After Wei Tu finished speaking, Caixia also interjected.
"Brother Wei?" Li Tongshi glanced at the young man in front of him, his face surprised.
Just now she saw Wei Tu standing outside the door, but because it was dark, she couldn't recognize Wei Tu's identity at a glance, and she only thought that the young man standing next to the horse tie was a slave of some gentleman, waiting by the side.
Li Tong's lips moved slightly, ready to say something.
But at this moment.
By the light at the door, Li Tongshi finally saw Wei Tu's appearance at this time, as well as the fierce aura on his body that belonged to a martial artist, she thought about it, and immediately swallowed the words in her throat.
- If it weren't for the purple tweed jacket on his body, she would have given it to the apricot blossoms. Li Tong's family couldn't believe that the Wei Tu in front of him was the strong servant who had redeemed himself in the mansion more than half a year ago.
"I'm snubbing you, it's our Li family who doesn't entertain you well." Li Tong said the words of the distinguished guests he entertained today to Wei Tu.
"By the way, it's almost time for the county's martial arts exam, no wonder you came to the county seat and came from Shan Wuju......" After Li Tong's apology, Li Yaozu greeted Wei Tu with a smile on his face.
In his opinion, he brought Wei Tu and recommended Wei Tu to Shan Wuju to learn art...... He is a well-deserved benefactor of Weitu.
Since he is a benefactor, then Weitu should be grateful to him.
Death for a confidant.
- He's got to manage the relationship well.
"Yes, Master Li." Wei Tu nodded and responded briefly.
"The matter of staying overnight, this is a trivial matter, you are the person from my Li family, you have always been loyal, I promised you this matter."
Li Yaozu pretended to be close, patted Wei Tu's shoulder, and said with a smile.
Hearing this, Wei Tu frowned, slightly unhappy in his heart.
- Loyalty? He intuitively felt that Li Yaozu had something to say. Do you still regard him as a slave?
However, in this regard, Weitu did not open his mouth to refute, but hinted that he should take it easy.
Xu is that he is too sensitive to the Li family.
The gentleman does not care about his deeds.
After Li Yaozu was a little farther away from him, Wei Tu bowed slightly and thanked him.
"Let's go inside the house and eat."
Li Tongshi walked into the side door, led the way in front, and said cordially to Wei Tu.
As for the green horse led by Wei Tu, it was pulled by the newly hired stables of the Li Mansion and dragged to the stable in the side courtyard of the former house.
"Weitu?"
In the restaurant, a young man in a Confucian shirt sitting on a stool couldn't help but raise his eyebrows slightly when he saw Wei Tu, who was introduced into the door by Li Yaozu and his wife.
For Weittu.
Li Xingye is familiar with it.
When he was young, when his family invited a tutor to teach him Confucianism, he also taught a few maids and subordinates in the house to read and write.
And Wei Tu was one of those people.
At the same time, he was also one of the few playmates in Li Mansion when he was a teenager.

PS: I made a mistake about the imperial examination before, and no one reminded me of it, but when I wrote this chapter, I realized that I had written it wrong.
The imperial examination is divided into county examination, government examination, provincial examination (hospital examination), township examination, as well as meeting examination and palace examination.
After passing the three examinations of the county, government and province, you can achieve fame and fame. The township test is to make a name for yourself. Wuju is the same. After the township martial arts, the martial arts can be obtained.
