Chapter two hundred and eighty third admission
Just after the third update, the Qian Mansion was brightly lit up and down, and the heads were swaying. Yang Wen and Ma were busy trapping the car. Zhang San brought out the freshly baked snacks and packed them. Lu led Keqing to check the box again to see if there were any missing.
Only Suiyuan was still quiet. Xiangling carefully pushed the door out and ran out of the yard panting. "Second Master, the young master is still sleeping... she is still snoring."
"Let him sleep." Qian Zheng was stunned for a moment before shook his head and smiled: "I didn't expect to have such concentration."
Qian Zheng also passed the exam all the way. In addition to the palace examination, he always tossed and turned before each exam and couldn't fall asleep. This is actually a common problem for most candidates, so he praised Qian Yuan for being determined.
Well, it's not true.
Or forced out.
When he was in the criminal police team in his previous life, he often had to do tasks. When encountering major cases, he encountered such a habit. He could fall asleep quickly as long as he had the chance. Even if he had to be arrested with a gun in a few hours, he could still sleep... Otherwise, his legs would be weak and he would be very angry.
It was not until the fourth day that Qian Zheng asked Xiangling to call Qian Yuan up to wash it.
"Didn't sleep well?" Qian Yuan glanced at the table. It was all dry food. Not to mention soy milk and tofu brain, there was not even a bowl of porridge. He could only pick up a fried dough stick and let Xiangling peel two rice dumplings.
At a glance, Xu Wei, who looked like he was wearing a pair of black-framed glasses, was a little listless, "You shouted too loudly, so noisy that you couldn't sleep..."
This reason is found... Suiyuan is not small in area. Qian Yuan lives in the main house and Xu Wei lives in the guest room, which is at least fifty steps away.
"Dao Zong... don't want to change to a meat Zong." Qian Yuan didn't bother to pay attention to Xu Wei, so he swallowed the fried dough sticks in a few bites, so he just started to do it himself.
Xu Wei took the date rice dumplings and dipped them in some sugar. Qian Yuan sighed and turned his head and didn't want to see... There are actually people in the world who eat sweet rice dumplings!
“Meow.”
Today, Xiangling and Keqing were both busy. Xiao Hei, who was neglected, finally came to spoil Qian Yuan. He jumped onto the stool, took Qian Yuan's clothes and jumped onto the table, which scared Xu Wei.
"It's okay." Qian Yuan shook his head at Keqing, holding chopsticks in one hand and gently scratching Xiao Hei's chin with the other hand. "I remember that before the provincial examination, Xiao Hei was also accompanying me."
"This is a good omen." Lu has been talking about auspicious words since yesterday.
Qian Yuan smiled, not knowing whether Xiao Hei was a domestic cat or a wild cat... but it always brought good luck. I remember the first time I met. If it weren't for Xiao Hei, the Japanese pirates might have been awakened.
"Young Master, the Zhejiang Guild Hall is here." Yang Wen walked over quickly, "The pastries and rice dumplings are all ready."
Qian Yuan threw down the chopsticks, took the wet wipes and wiped his mouth, opened his arms, Xiangling and Keqing were busy putting on him on a flat towel and putting on a coat... It was a bit similar to the windbreaker of later generations, and it looked more and more tall.
After strode out of Suiyuan, more than a dozen candidates in the outer courtyard carrying the exam basket and even carrying boxes were waiting. Most of them were Shaoxing scholars. They have been hiding in Suiyuan for several months and have already made an appointment to enter the exam room together.
Zhu Dashou bowed and said, "Zhancai, thank you."
"What do you thank?" Xu Wei was still the same, "Isn't it supposed to buy some pastries and cooked food for his friends?"
"Brother Wen's words are bad." Chen Younian and Xu Wei were very familiar with each other and retorted: "It is one thing that Zhan Cai is generous, but he thinks so thoughtful and does not hesitate to share it. This is another thing."
"Okay, okay." Qian Yuan cursed with a smile: "If you can't use a coal stove, you can bring more good charcoal, which is not enough for me to prepare."
"Be careful when using coal stoves, don't call Zhurong."
"Everyone thinks about the essentials of oil paper, candles, water barrels, and oil umbrellas, and have they brought them all."
"If you get up and don't eat enough, just eat some more here. Don't worry, you'll have the carriage ready, and you can hurry up."
Among these people, Qian Yuan was only older than Xian Yuan, and his qualifications were not well-known. There were Xu Wei and Chen Younian, and all the Dashou were all children of officials, as old as Wu Dui, who was thirty-one years old.
But there is no doubt that Qian Yuan has absolute appeal. As soon as a few words were spoken, everyone checked the exam preparation equipment again.
As a result, there were two unprepared candles, one forgot to bring oil paper, and one even didn't carry ink.
Qian Yuan didn't care. He chatted with brothers from the traffic police team in his previous life. Every year they could meet candidates who forgot to bring their admission tickets in the college entrance examination.
"I still remember that on the first day of the Lunar New Year, I was playing numb all day without any worries. Brother Yu Chen still did not change his expression..." Qian Yuan smiled and stuffed a piece of Hui ink over.
"The galloping horse faces the strong wind and destroys the trees, and it is still as peaceful as ever. Only then can she have such ability. I am not as good as a fool." Tao Dalin took Huimo with a wry smile. He knew it was a good piece of ink at the touch, but he did not refuse, but just bowed his hand.
Tao Dalin left a deep impression on Qian Yuan. He didn't know the name in his previous life, but this person was the first to leave the mahjong table and began to concentrate on preparing for the exam on the second day of the Lunar New Year. At that time, Chen Younian and others were still playing mahjong day and night.
In fact, the Tao family in Kuaiji can be compared with the Sun family in Yuyao. In history, Tao Dalin himself was the second in this subject. His grandfather Tao Xie was a Jinshi in Jieyuan, Zhejiang, and during the Hongzhi period, he was appointed as the governor of Guangdong and Guangxi.
Although Tao Dalin's father was just a juren, his elder brother Tao Chengxue was a Jinshi in the 26th year of Jiajing. He became the Minister of Rites in Nanjing. His nephew Tao Wangling ranked first in the imperial examination during the Wanli period and tested Hualang in the palace.
Seeing that the time was almost over, Manager Ma led the servants to carry a few pots of freshly baked tea eggs, put them in small bags and distributed them one by one. This is for them to eat before entering the examination room. If they are not lucky, they have to wait until noon to enter the venue.
After everything was ready, the group bid farewell to Qian Zheng who had sent him out of the mansion, got on the carriage and went straight to the tribute court.
The examination every three years, and the Beijing city is much better in organization than the local government, which is inevitable. After all, the Beijing city can mobilize much more resources.
Qian Yuan was lucky this time. The candidates in Shandong were ranked first, followed by Shaanxi, and Nanzhili.
There are naturally the most candidates in Nanzhili. After all, there are more than half of them, and more than half of them are literati. Among them, Qian Yuan is naturally the most conspicuous. Of course, it is not because he is Qian Yuan, but because the big box he carries is too eye-catching.
Moving forward step by step, Qian Yuan suddenly saw Pan Yunduan in front of him and couldn't help but complain: "Damn it, you're such a great man!"
Pan Yunduan’s box is not big, but he actually carries a pot in his hand... Qian Yuan is very familiar with it. It is a copper pot produced in Suiyuan, which is specially used for hot pot!
This guy actually wants to eat hot pot in the tribute courtyard!?
The prosecutor was obviously stunned. He looked back and forth several times, and then found some raw cabbage, tofu, egg dumplings, beef and mutton from Pan Yunduan's box... Qian Yuan, who was not far away, even saw tripe with sharp eyes.
Pan Yunduan smiled and explained that he didn't care. Unlike his father, Pan En, who was obsessed with his career, he was a person who took things as he wanted and paid attention to enjoyment. Otherwise, he would not have retired early and spent more than 20 years to build the Liuyuan Garden.
Perhaps because Pan Yunduanzhu and jade were in front, Qian Yuan basically entered the field without any trouble. Of course, he had to be personally inspected by soldiers before this.
I knew the examination room number three days ago. Qian Yuan successfully found the room number and lit a candle and checked it carefully.
Wow, my luck was not as good as the provincial examination this time. There were no three cracks on the walls, and the dust on the ground could be stepped on. The spider webs were densely packed on the roof, and I don’t know if it would leak when it rained.
Qian Yuan sighed and could only comfort himself in his heart. Fortunately, he was in charge of the "Spring and Autumn Annals" and not the "Shangshu", and at least he divided the brick and tile houses.
There was no way, so I first robbed the water and cleaned it. I used oil paper to block the cracks on the wall, and then I then built a special oil umbrella to support the ceiling. After I finished my work, the test paper was also down.
Qian Yuan was not busy answering the paper, so he first lit the coal stove, burned some hot water to warm up his body, and then placed the bedding on the board, carrying the box in for use as a table.
After the training of the provincial examination, Qian Yuan's series of steps were orderly... The soldiers outside were thinking in their minds that they looked young, so why did they have such rich experience?
Today, the entire Beijing city began to wake up from midnight, and the Xu family was no exception. Although the next generation of the Xu family, let alone the Juren, there was not even a scholar.
Xiaoqi looked at Qingwen angrily and amusedly, and Xiren knelt piously on the cushion, holding the lit incense in both hands, and muttering something in his mouth.
Qingwen and Xiren both received great kindness from Xiaoqi. For them, only when a young lady married a good man can she have a good life, which is also one of the reasons why they are willing to trust Xiaoqi.
After all, she was kind-hearted, so Xiaoqi didn't say anything. She went out to run around as she was used to. This was also one of her willingness to be looked at by people in the Xu Mansion. The lady from a family didn't embroider the flowers in the boudoir and went out to run early in the morning...
When she ran around and passed by the small building, she saw Xu Can kneeling devoutly, muttering something.
Xiaoqi blinked, this attitude... I saw this when I went to Korea to study for an exchange student in my previous life.
Xiaoqi has no good feelings for Xu Can. She often feels that the other party is arrogant, but she also has no disgust.
