22 New Year's greetings
When Qin Zisheng was thinking about his brother, Su Xiaohan was also talking to Qin Zichu about going to Qin's house to pay New Year's greetings.
"Xianggong, do you think these gifts are enough?"
Qin Zichu glanced at the things on the table and said with a smile: "Isn't it too much?" ”
Su Xiaohan shook his head, "How come, this is the first year of our marriage, and it is appropriate to be more polite." ”
Qin Zichu smiled and said, "Xiao Han is so good to me. ”
Su Xiaohan blushed, "Xianggong is good to Xiaohan." ”
The two of them wrapped up their things together and put them away, then read and read, learned to read and write, washed together after dark, and then went to bed to talk and sleep.
There is only less than a month left before the county exam, and Qin Zichu has already begun to summarize in his own way, which is a study habit he has developed in his previous life.
Although the original owner said that he had never been admitted to the exam for several years, he still left something for Qin Zichu.
First of all, I have read all the books that should be read, and some of them have been read more than once, so I have a general knowledge framework.
Past papers for the next few years.
The imperial examination is not as many as modern exam questions, and if you recall it carefully, you can basically recall it, Qin Zichu studied the real questions of the past few years back and forth three times.
Have a good idea of the ideas of this era.
This is followed by countless exercises and simulations.
The whole process is probably similar to going through the college entrance examination model of the previous life.
The final stage is to fill in the gaps.
It's okay to write articles and give these things, as long as you adapt to the writing and writing of this era, and the requirements for the test students themselves are not high, they can cope with it after practice.
The strategy is simpler, Qin Zichu is afraid that he will not be able to stop as soon as he writes.
The only trouble is the trial poem, but it makes Qin Zichu difficult.
So lately he's been spending the most time writing poetry.
Su Xiaohan often saw him holding a pen and staring at the paper, his face flushed for a long time before he could barely hold back a few words, and then he crossed out with disgust.
"Xianggong, are you thinking about writing poetry again?"
It may be that Qin Zichu's resentment is too deep, and Su Xiaohan subconsciously thinks in this direction.
Qin Zichu touched Su Xiaohan's hand in the dark, then pinched it, and said with a smile: "No, I was thinking that when I went to Dali Village tomorrow, I would go to find my original master, the day of the exam must have come out, and the master must be clear, and I will ask him to help protect the promotion later." ”
"What does it mean to hold up?"
"It's to make sure that I don't impersonate, don't fake names, and have a clean net worth."
Su Xiaohan snorted, and then asked, "Xianggong, what do you have to prepare for the exam?" ”
"Does Xiao Han want to accompany me to the exam?"
"Well, Xianggong went to town alone, I don't worry."
Su Ren and Sun Xiaoshan also meant the same thing, if it weren't for the fact that there was a lot of wood work at home and they couldn't leave, they also wanted to go over together.
Qin Zichu smiled, "Actually, I don't know, in previous years, these things were done by my father and mother." ”
In the area of reading, Qin Zhuang and Li Xiuhua really put a lot of thought into it.
It's not easy.
"Then I'll go and ask them more tomorrow."
"Well, I'm listening, too."
Because he was going to the master's house, Su Xiaohan prepared an extra gift, and the amount was a little less than that for the Qin family.
The family's inventory is almost emptied.
Qin Zichu couldn't persuade him.
He knew that Xiao Han was all for him, after all, he was not studying with the master now, and he had not been in school for many years, so the master would inevitably look down on him.
Qin Zichu knew it, but Xiao Han didn't say it, so he pretended not to know.
*
The next day, after breakfast, the husband and wife went out with baskets.
Sun Xiaoshan sent them to the gate of the courtyard and advised: "Go and talk to the master well, and respect more." ”
Su Xiaohan nodded, "Got daddy." ”
Sun Xiaoshan glanced at Qin Zichu again, "Come back early, and leave food for you at home." ”
Qin Zichu responded with a smile.
Every time he went back to Qin's house, Sun Xiaoshan would specially add this sentence, for fear that he would have trouble with Qin Zhuang and have no food.
The husband and wife held hands and walked to Dali Village.
"Xiaohan, give the basket to Xianggong."
Su Xiaohan shook his head, "It's better for me to come, how can there be a man with a basket?" ”
"I, I like to carry baskets."
Su Xiaohan was amused by him, "Xianggong, don't talk about it." ”
In the end, the basket still went to Qin Zichu's hand, but he didn't carry it, he just carried it in his hand.
The people of Luobian Village who passed by were not surprised.
Standing at the gate of the Qin family's courtyard, Su Xiaohan reached out to pick up the basket, "Xianggong, give it to me, don't let my father see it." ”
If my father sees it, he will say that he is not promising.
Qin Zichu let go, "It's not bad for a while." ”
Su Xiaohan still wanted to coax, but the courtyard door in front of him was suddenly opened, and Qin Zisheng, who was standing at the door, was carrying a small burden and looked like he had run away from home secretly.
"Brother?"
Qin Zisheng rubbed his eyes, confirmed that he was not mistaken, and said happily: "Brother, you are back to your parents' house!" ”
Qin Zichu: "......"
Su Xiaohan laughed.
"Brother Xiaohan, are you here too?"
Su Xiaohan nodded, "Sheng'er, what are you carrying behind you?" ”
Qin Zisheng hurriedly hid his little baggage, "It's nothing." ”
Qin Zichu took a step forward, picked up his little burden and glanced at it, and said with a smile: "Qin Zisheng, how old are you to run away from home and grow up." ”
Qin Zisheng was not convinced, "I don't want to run away from home, I'm going to find you." ”
"Looking for me?" Qin Zichu understood, "Quarreling with your father again?" ”
"How dare I, I just miss you a little, and I miss Brother Xiaohan too."
After speaking, he smiled at Su Xiaohan.
Su Xiaohan also smiled and asked, "Is my father and mother here, we are here to pay New Year's greetings." ”
"Yes, speak in the back room."
Qin Zisheng took his brother and sister-in-law to the house, "Daddy, brother and sister-in-law are here to pay New Year's greetings." ”
It didn't take long for Li Xiuhua to run out of the house, and when she saw that it was really her eldest son, she shouted Chu'er happily.
Qin Zhuang didn't come out, and Qin Zichu didn't ask him.
"Xiao Han, why did you bring so many things?"
Li Xiuhua was shocked, who in the village took so many things for the New Year?
Qin Zichu smiled and said, "Mother, Xiao Han said that this is the first year that we have become parents, and we have to reassure my father and mother that Xiao Han is good to me." ”
Li Xiuhua: "......"
Qin Zisheng leaned over to take a look, and said enviously: "Brother, when I grow up, I also want to find a husband like Brother Xiaohan, and I can become rich." ”
Li Xiuhua: "......"
Qin Zhuang, who has been eavesdropping by the door: "......"
Qin Zichu made a straight face, "Qin Zisheng, Brother Xiaohan is your sister-in-law, please correct your position." ”
Qin Zisheng grinned, "Got it." ”
Qin Zichu pushed him, "You go over, don't be next to Xiao Han." ”
Qin Zisheng pouted, "The brother who got married, the water that was spilled." ”
He understands now, his brother is a good brother on weekdays, but as long as he gets involved with Brother Xiaohan, his brother is not his own brother.
Qin Zichu: "......"
Qin Zhuang really couldn't listen to it anymore, and the more he talked, the more ridiculous it became, "Ahem." ”
Li Xiuhua hurriedly said: "Come into the house quickly, it's cold outside." ”
When he entered the house, Qin Zhuang was already sitting at the table.
Qin Zichu and Su Xiaohan called their father, and then sat opposite him.
Li Xiuhua brought hot water and melon seeds.
Su Xiaohan kept the matter in mind all the time, and it didn't take long for him to open his mouth cautiously, "Dad, the exam is coming up next month, I want to accompany my father-in-law, but I don't know what to prepare, can you tell me?" ”
Qin Zhuang was about to get angry with a straight face, but now when he heard Su Xiaohan's words, he was surprised: "Are you still going to play this year?" ”
Qin Zichu nodded and said calmly: "I still want to give it a try." ”
Qin Zhuang's expression eased a lot, he had already given up on the matter of his eldest son's imperial examination, but he didn't expect the eldest son to give up himself.
It's kind of self-motivated.
