Every year, Li Silang does not go to the exam alone, but is accompanied by several brothers.

Of course, everyone does not need to accompany them together, but the three brothers take turns. This year, it is Li Sanlang's turn to accompany Li Silang - even if the family is separated, this matter related to the future of the Li family must be done.

This made Li Sansao couldn't help but complain. After all, it was spring plowing time, and there was nowhere to leave the house. They would be away for ten days, and the family affairs would be delayed. So she immediately complained to Li Sanlang: "

You obviously can't afford the exam, but you still have to struggle every year, which is a waste of money! It's really annoying to waste other people's time!"

After so many years of companionship, Li Sanlang was actually impatient. He immediately said: "He is his brother. What can I do? I can only accompany him. But don't worry, I guess I won't be able to accompany you for a few years. After all, it looks like

If they spend money so lavishly, they will lose all their money in a few years, and then they will not be able to raise the money to take the exam, and then they will definitely not be able to take the exam."

Li Sansao said: "That's not certain. Maybe they will ask us to borrow money to take the exam. I'm leaving it here. If that day comes, you are not allowed to borrow money, otherwise I will help you and lend it to others.

, you can still hear the sound, lending it to him is just a waste of time, and of no use at all."

She was very worried about this matter, fearing that the old couple would ask their brothers who had separated families to test for Li Silang, so she said this now.

Li Sanlang said: "Don't worry, I have a sense of proportion."

Hearing what Li Sanlang said, Li Sansao felt relieved.

At that moment, Li Sanlang went to Li Silang's house and saw that Li Silang had a lot of luggage in big and small bags. He couldn't help but twitching at the corner of his mouth. He remembered that he didn't bring so many things last year. Why are there so many things this year?

As soon as I asked, I heard Li Silang say: "The food in the city is not delicious. Your brothers and sisters got me some dried meat, fish and snacks to take with me."

He is now used to eating meals cooked by An Ran, and he really feels uncomfortable if he doesn't eat for a day, but he can't bring An Ran to help him cook for the exam. Not to mention that she is pregnant now, and he can't let her be tired from running around, even if she is not pregnant.

, so he brought some pancakes, dried meat, dried fish snacks made by An Ran, etc. He would have these things to eat when he arrived, and he would not be afraid that the food in the city would be unpalatable and he would not be able to eat anymore.

After hearing this, Li Sanlang couldn't help but have his head full of black threads, thinking that this fourth brother was becoming more and more unreliable.

In this era of county examinations, the examination time is announced one month in advance, and then the candidates register at the county office ceremony room. When registering, the candidates fill in the personal statement, mutual agreement, and recognizance.

A personal confession is a personal resume.

Mutual knot means that five candidates protect each other, and five cheaters sit together.

The guarantee is to find a local resident to guarantee that he or she will not assume his or her nationality, conceal the funeral, use a substitute, or use a false name, and that his or her family status is innocent, that he is not the descendant of a prostitute, or that he has not committed a crime or engaged in a lowly career. After completing the above,

The candidates are admitted to the exam, and the rosters are distributed to the county office. (The above content is taken from the Internet)

Because Li Silang has been taking the exam for many years, he is familiar with these routines, so he is not as busy as someone who takes the exam for the first time. He had already completed these things after the county announced the exam time, but it took a lot of time.

It’s just money - don’t spend any money on the first two items. The last one is to ask a local student to provide insurance, which will definitely cost money, otherwise why would they provide you with insurance?

In addition to asking someone to be a guarantor, it costs money, and the expenses during the exam also cost money. Of course, not to mention the money required to buy pens, inks, paper, inkstones, and even go to school. Therefore, unless someone has a certain financial strength, they cannot afford it.

As a scholar, I really need money everywhere, and the expenses are too high.

Li Silang has been scolded by his brother and sister-in-law in the past two years. In order to save some money, he did not go to school and only studied at home, otherwise the expenses would be even greater.

But in fact, sometimes it is impossible to pass the exam by self-study. That is, when An Ran came, there was such a person who could pass the Jinshi to tutor Li Silang. Otherwise, he would not go to school and just rely on Li Silang's self-study, plus

Li Silang is so lazy. He is just messing around and not studying hard at all. He is the only one who can pass the exam.

Li Silang has been away for more than ten days, and Mrs. Li worships gods at home every day, asking gods and goddesses to bless her son to survive this time.

Perhaps her sincerity moved God, and that day someone came to Li's house clamoring all the way.

This man was also from the same village. As soon as he entered the door, without waiting for Mrs. Li to ask what was going on, he said happily: "I'm here to bring good news to my aunt. Your Shiro has passed the county examination. He still has to listen to the county magistrate in the county."

You may have to come back a little later if you want to talk. If you happen to see me there, let me tell you the good news in advance."

This was a good job. The man wanted to come to announce the good news, and Mrs. Li would definitely give her money, so she came back as soon as she heard Li Silang’s instructions.

His guess was correct. When Mrs. Li heard that her son had done well and passed the county exam, she was so excited that she almost fainted. She quickly gave him a bunch of money and had someone come in to serve him tea and snacks. She was so happy.

.

An Ran was happy to hear that Li Silang passed the county examination. However, this was actually in line with An Ran's speculation. After tutoring Li Silang and Li Silang's careful study during this period, An Ran felt that Li Silang had taken the easiest county examination.

The test shouldn't be a problem. As for the government test, it's a matter of luck. She doesn't know if she can get a few questions right when she tests Li Silang. If she can get a few questions right, then he should be able to pass;

He was unlucky and didn't get a single question, so Li Silang's results this year probably stopped at the county examination, and he would not be able to obtain the qualifications for a child. According to the rules of this era, those who passed the county examination and the government examination would

Even Tongsheng, if he takes the college examination in the future, he will not need to take the county examination or the government examination, but will only have to take the college examination directly.

So when An Ran heard the good news that Li Silang had passed the county examination, although An Ran was happy on the surface, he actually felt that this was expected.

On the other hand, Mr. Li and Mrs. Li had provided Li Silang with education for twenty years, but Li Silang failed to even pass the simplest county examination. The old couple said they were not disappointed and thought that Li Silang might really not be able to pass the examination, which was a lie.

, it’s just that Mrs. Li is doting on her and doesn’t want to believe this reality, so she always thinks that her son can pass the exam.

So at this time, when I heard that Li Silang had such bad luck and actually passed the county examination, he was naturally so happy that he was almost speechless. It took him a while to react and thank the other party for his congratulations.

Although I responded, I was still a little tongue-tied when I spoke because I was so excited, and I couldn’t speak well.

Although in the eyes of others, passing the county examination is nothing, after all, it is not even the most basic scholar, what is there to be proud of, but in the eyes of Mrs. Li and his wife, it is like the iron tree blooming, and her son passed the scholar examination

It’s almost the same.

After a while, everyone in the village knew that Li Silang passed the county examination. Although passing the county examination was nothing new, there was nothing new for country people, and it was rare to find anything new. So when they heard about it, they naturally came to give Mr. Li a try.
