Chapter 387: Ranking of the Prefecture Examination

Even if Master Bai didn't go out of the boundaries of Liuyun County, as a celebrity around the county commander, how could he not know the situation outside.

When he heard this, he said: "The list of government exams has come out, but the news from above has not come over, and the people who went to the government exam this time have not come back, so it is unknown for the time being." If my sister-in-law wants to know, she might as well come back in two days. I'll think ...... then."

Before he finished speaking, Zhang Cong's voice full of joy came from outside.

"Good news, great news, great news, great news, my lord. Sixty-six people from Liuyun County participated in this government test, and a total of 11 people were successful. ”

Master Bai looked at Li Yuan when he heard this, but the latter didn't speak, and directly took Cheng Xuejiao's hand and walked out.

At the door, I met Zhang Zhutou with a red paper in his hand and a happy face.

Zhang Cong knew Li Yuan, in addition to the fact that she was brought by Xie Yanzhi to worship the head, and later became Xie Yanzhi's daughter-in-law.

When I saw her at this time, I smiled and narrowed my eyes.

"Brother and sister are here? There just happened to be good news, your two younger brothers were on the list in the house exam, and now they are children. One is third from the bottom and one is in the middle. ”

"Really?"

Li Yuan and Cheng Xuejiao both widened their eyes at the same time and asked in unison.

"Really! The list is still here, if you don't believe it, see for yourself! ”

Zhang Cong said, spreading out the red paper in his hand to Li Yuan.

Master Bai, who was a few steps behind Li Yuan, also walked over and stood three steps away from Li Yuan and Cheng Xuejiao.

When I saw the eleven lists that had been ticked out on it, I couldn't help but grin.

Although there were 66 people from Liuyun County participating in this government examination, there were few people from other counties.

In addition, there was no serious prefect to preside over it, so the scholars sent by the top said that the number of students was reduced to eighty.

Unexpectedly, of these eighty people, they accounted for eleven in Liuyun County.

During this time, he learned from the information of the past years that in the past government examinations, the prefecture city accounted for 40%, and the remaining 60% were the counties under his rule.

Unexpectedly, in the first year of their tenure, they were awarded eleven children at once.

Among these eleven people, two are in the top ten.

One is the brother-in-law of Lord Xu, the chief bookkeeper, and the other is the sister-in-law of Lord Zhao of the county.

These two people have always been excellent in the county school, and the talent who wants to come to the June college exam is also in the bag.

As for Li Jun, the dark horse, as Xie Yanzhi's brother-in-law, it is said that he has not touched a book for more than ten years.

But the number of places in the county examination is at the end, and this government examination is the end, maybe the hospital examination can be the end.

Shao'an is really a talent, and in just a few months, he can teach a child.

If he had given him more time, maybe his two brothers-in-law would have been able to move forward a little more.

This is all a political achievement!

Li Yuan and Cheng Xuejiao, after repeatedly confirming that the names on the list were correct, their faces were full of bright smiles.

"Come, happy money, buy wine and food for the two of you!"

Li Yuan, who was in a good mood, was very generous by taking out money from her sleeve pocket, took out a silver ingot and a tael from the space and handed it to Zhang Cong.

This kind of happy money is liked by everyone in the yamen.

Zhang Cong stretched out his hand to take it and thanked Li Yuan with Master Bai.

Cheng Xuejiao also wanted to give Xi money, but she was in a hurry to go out and didn't bring money.

When he and Li Yuan came out of the yamen, the whole person was excited, and his brain was still a little clouded.

Even though I saw the list with my own eyes, I still couldn't believe it.

"Eldest sister, Zhengzi has become a child? Also, the same goes for Junzi? ”

"That's right! Let's go back and tell the third aunt the good news. There are also Ye and Uncle Hua. Our Li clan has not been born for a long time. Hey, I've got to buy some meat and go back and make a good meal in the evening to celebrate. ”

"It's time to celebrate, it's time to celebrate!"

Cheng Xuejiao said, with a straight face: "Eldest sister, you go to buy meat first, and I'll go back and tell my mother." And the happy money just now was given by you, this money for buying meat, we will give it out, and I will give you the silver later. Sister, remember to buy more, let's buy a few tables of noodles and invite everyone to have a good meal. ”

Li Yuan didn't push her on the money, and when she heard her say this, she replied: "Okay, then why don't you clean up with the third aunt today and go back together." The watermelons in the field, anyway, there is a carriage at home, so I will run to the county seat more. Count how many melons there are, and I will give you the money when you get back. ”

Cheng Xuejiao, who had thought about going back in two or three days, didn't insist anymore, "Well, okay, then eldest sister, you wait for us." Why don't you go back first, and we'll clean up ourselves and then drive the ox cart back." ”

"Done!"

Because the weather is hot and it hasn't rained for a long time, everyone is trying to make themselves hold more silver and food in their hands, so there are naturally fewer people buying meat.

The butchers in the county town generally have no land and make a living by helping people kill pigs and sell meat.

It's a hot day, and the pork is not easy to sell, but it is cheaper for Li Yuan.

At this time, it was still early, Li Yuan came to Wang Butcher's stall, and saw that the pig had not been sold much at all, so she was very big and gave it to her.

She bought not only pork, but also live chickens, live ducks, and eggs.

All of these were sent to Xie's house.

When she arrived at the Xie family, she saw her third aunt smiling, and even humming an unknown tune while cleaning up.

And Cheng Xuejiao is a watermelon in a few fields.

When the two of them saw her come back, they were a little dumbfounded when they bought so many chickens, ducks and pork.

"This, Yuan Niang, it's hot now, you buy so much, it's going to be bad if you can't finish it."

"No, except for some of the things we use to cook at night, I will make the rest into jerky and send it back to Brother Xie. As for these chickens, ducks and eggs, don't worry, Auntie, I will take care of them before leaving. ”

Hearing her say this, Ma Shi thought about it and directly took out a few pieces of broken silver and handed them over.

"Yuanniang, aunt heard from your third brother and sister, you gave one or two of the money, and this pork ......"

Li Yuan glanced at the broken silver in her hand, and there were about one or two, so she picked up two pieces from it.

"Third aunt, this is enough, you are short of money now, and when you get to Fucheng, there will be more places to use the money."

Seeing that she only took two of the smallest, Ma stuffed all the broken silver in his hand into her, and said angrily: "No matter how short we are, we can't even save the happy money." Besides, Zhengzi can be admitted to the middle school children's examination, is it not because of Shao'an's relationship? If it weren't for his explanations and the books full of commentaries, where would he have been able to get in? ”

"The third aunt stops, let's not talk about this yet. You hurry up and pack up, I have to go back and tell Grandma and Uncle Hua the good news. ”

Li Yuan said, stuffed the broken silver back to her, and asked the Wang butcher and others outside the door to help help the basket with pork to the carriage.

Ma Shi didn't continue to push on the silver, and when he saw that she even had to put the chickens and ducks in the carriage, he said, "Yuanniang, you bring pork and eggs back, and I will bring these chickens and ducks when the time comes." Your carriage is good, what are you doing with these things in the carriage, you don't have to smell it. ”
