Chapter 289: Before the List
Looking at the paper, ink, pens and other things that were being delivered one after another, and listening to the guy who delivered the goods to the teahouse, he was dumbfounded.
The third sister wants to open a shop?
No way.
Dajiang knew that Zhou Banxia would rather buy a shop to collect rent than open a store, one was afraid of being designated as a merchant, and the second was afraid of trouble and had to arrange a shopkeeper.
In the words of his third sister, the workshop exhausted me to death, and I was still tossing and opening a shop? I'm crazy, it's better to embroider at home!
If he guessed correctly, he must have hoarded them and let the three of them practice calligraphy well, because whether it was him or the third brother-in-law, the handwriting was not as good as the third sister.
The third sister is not only good at embroidery, but also calligraphy and painting, even Mr. is full of praise, but the third sister does not like to be in the limelight, and few people know it.
The third sister just didn't say it, and she also felt that the handwriting he and her brother-in-law wrote was difficult to get into the elegant hall, and hoped that they would finish the college exam and then practice their words well.
"Sister, how much money did you spend?" Xiaohe was quite empathetic to help the eldest brother say how to save money, "We can use a brush dipped in water to practice calligraphy." ”
Zhou Banxia couldn't help laughing, "Not much, most of them are flawed, and I have to ask someone to cut it and copy the book for you when I go back." ”
Yes, copy the book.
Dae suddenly realized.
The books related to the imperial examination at home are still very comprehensive, and there are many annotations on the Four Books and Five Classics, and there are all the contents covered by the basic imperial examination.
Among them, there is a set of annotations personally sorted out by the third brother-in-law in the preparation for the Wen Shu exam, personal experience and opinions, as well as experience related to the imperial examination.
A leopard can be seen in the tube.
These learning materials are the essence of a real scholar's family, and may not be comparable to a real family, but they are also extremely valuable.
Next, it's not necessary to copy one or two more sets for preparation, Xiaohe will use it, and his future nephew will also use it.
"Did you find a good book today?"
Xiaohe attached to Zhou Banxia's ear, "My eldest brother and I took a look, and there were some books that we didn't have, most of them did, and some bookstores didn't have them, so we also had them." ”
This is true, the subset of our family's scriptures and histories comes from the Qian Mansion, the Gao Mansion, the Zhou Mansion, as well as the Gao Family Studies and Jingshan Academy, which could not be more complete.
It's miscellaneous books such as military books, agricultural books, and travelogues, and my uncle has also given a lot of them for your brother-in-law and your brother to read before, but you are too young to pay attention to them.
After reading the Four Books and the Five Classics first, the meaning of the scriptures will not be a problem, and then it will naturally be necessary to read a large number of miscellaneous books to prepare for the next day's policy discussion.
Xiaohe nodded his little head heavily, he knew that he had to be familiar with the Four Books and Five Classics before the age of ten, and he would have to prepare for the next scientific examination after the age of ten.
Zhou Banxia touched the little guy's bun with relief, there are two years at most, and he will go to Jingshan Academy to study in two years, so let's have a good time first.
The next day, the second batch was sent away, that is, Zhou Changping, Uncle Gu and others left Zhending Mansion, and Zhou Banxia went to buy a foal for Xiaohe.
No way.
It's too short, only the foal is suitable for the river, that is, riding on the foal, the river needs a guard to follow, but it also makes the river happy.
With their own horses that can practice riding, not to mention Xiaohe, Gu Wenxuan and Dajiang couldn't stay in the city anymore, so they decided to go to Zhuangzi to live for a few days first.
Originally, it was planned that there would be a cook and others in this house, so that it would be convenient to take care of Gu Wenyu and others, but I didn't expect to go to Zhuangzi to live for a few days.
If you don't want to go to the street, the city is indeed not as comfortable as Zhuangzi outside the city, there is no curfew, not to mention, the place is still very big, you can wave as much as you want.
Horseback riding, archery, fishing, water fishing, barbecue...... From time to time, he also had a friendly match with the three candidates from Jingshan Academy and Zhaojia Village.
There are no elders, and they are happy to stay in Zhuangzi one by one, and their complexion is at least a shade darker in just a few days.
Until the day before the hospital test list, I returned to the house in Jiying Lane, and I was nervous, and my mind was also on the results of the next day's list.
Zhou Banxia saw Gu Wenxuan talking lightly about not hitting the head of the case, he should always be on the list, and he still had to write five big characters before going to bed that night.
After writing it, it seems to be carefully down, and when I got to bed, I muttered that this time I couldn't make a bet on a thousand taels of silver to hit a water scoop.
When he got up early in the morning, Gu Wenxuan practiced a stick of incense in the yard, and when he was sweating, he went back to the room to take a bath, and refreshed and changed clothes.
"The strap is wrong."
Gu Wenxuan bowed his head.
Zhou Banxia laughed.
Looking at Zhou Banxia who was rolling happily on the kang, it seems that you didn't tire you last night! Gu Wenxuan sneered at her with a smile, "I'm really not nervous, do you believe it?" ”
"Faith!" It's strange, Zhou Banxia was secretly happy, "I really don't have to accompany you to see the list?" ”
"No, you can just wait for the annunciation to come to your door at home." Gu Wenxuan thought about it, "No matter if you look at the list or the top three answer sheets today, the number of people will not be small, and you won't be able to squeeze out for a while in front, with you at home, the good news team is early, and I am also at ease." ”
"Yes." People are crowded, the weather is hot, and the result is the same at home. In addition, the good news team came to the door, and it was necessary to report to the Lin Mansion and Yunke in time.
In his thoughts, Zhou Banxia reminded, "There is no hurry in the first three answer sheets, and when I look back, someone will copy and sell it like the government test, just let Zhiming buy it, and it won't cost a few dollars." ”
"Just be careful, don't be squeezed down, you have to look foreign if you fall." Gu Wenxuan took over the conversation and said with a smile, "I know."
Everyone went to see the list, there are many people and great power, and there is no way to go wrong. I'll watch over Dajiang, you can rest assured at home, there's no need to be too nervous, just wait for you to celebrate us. ”
"Good!"
I just don't know how many of you can be among the talents, if there are few, I'm afraid it's even worse to celebrate with fanfare, but I hope that more than five people will be on the list.
East Wing.
Da Jiang couldn't sleep last night, and when he got up, he was worried about disturbing Xiao He, who slept with him today, and fell asleep in a daze and dreamed one after another.
When he woke up again, he didn't know what kind of dream he had, he only remembered that he was on the mountain and wanted to find it down, but he couldn't find the way.
In the end, I was kicked awake by the little brother who slept very poorly, thanks to the little brother's kick.
In my dream, I couldn't find the way down the mountain, and I only saw cliffs everywhere, and I could only jump down the mountain if I wanted to go down, which was too scary and sweaty.
Looking at the river that was about to roll under the kang after turning over from sleep, Da Jiang smiled, moved him inside, and re-tucked the mosquito curtain after getting off the ground.
"Big brother?"
"It's still early, let's sleep a little longer."
Xiaohe rubbed his sleepy eyes, seeing that the sky was already bright, where was it still early, but this morning was going to release the list, he immediately got up.
After breakfast, Zhou Banxia also straightened Dajiang's robe, took Xiaohe's little hand, and watched them get on the carriage waiting at the side door to leave.
"Sister-" Xiaohe hesitated, "This time, tens of thousands of children have only won three hundred talents, do you think the eldest brother can be selected for the show?" ”
"Yes!" Zhou Banxia accentuated his tone, "I can!" ”
