Farmer’s Blessed Girl

Chapter 2495 Take the middle

Manbao's fief is not very rich, so the land is not expensive, especially the wasteland.

Zhou Lijun found a piece of land close to the road and bought it. Now that the workshop and house have been built, everyone went to see it.

The reason why the speed is so fast is because it is built according to the small farmyard, not as detailed as the previous village courtyard built in Pu Village, and the bricks, stones and wood used are also good.

The workshops built are rows of yards and houses. Inside are the grinding pharmacy, boil pharmacy, and oil refining room planned by the Lu family based on their experience...

It's pretty detailed anyway.

When the time comes to invite a lot of people, Zhou Lijun decided to invite the aunt to seal the people on the ground.

Man Bao carried a vase to the Zheng family.

Zheng put it on the shelf in the outer room. After looking at it, she felt that it was not coordinated enough, so she carried it to her own study and found a shelf to put it on, which was more comfortable.

"It was cut in the garden?"

Man Bao nodded and said with a smile, "I cut it a little."

When Zheng Shi walked over in the evening, she realized that it was more than a little cut. Several of the flowers she was proud of were cut, and she felt distressed for a while, and then she protected the remaining flower buds, and Zhou Man was not allowed to cut them again. .

She said: "There is also a process for cutting flowers. At least one blooming flower must be left on the flower branch, so that it won't look bad when it's bare."

Man Bao nodded again and again and said, "Aunt Zheng, next time I go out to buy flowers and come back and put a bottle for you."

Zheng Shi immediately said: "I want a big one."

This is not difficult for Man Bao at all.

She responded with a smile, turned around and went to the mall to place an order for a lot of flowers.

Zheng Shi knew that Man Bao could always buy a lot of beautiful flowers, and was very happy. She put in a bottle with her, then kept a bottle for herself, and gave the rest to Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Bai who were better than her and Mrs. Qian .

Just a few days after I went to work, I took the Double Ninth Holiday again.

But this time Man Bao and the others didn't go out to play, but stayed at home with the three Bai Erlang reading.

Guan Yong was amazed when he came to the capital to see Bai Shan's notes. Sure enough, the teachers at the county school and Guozijian were very different, not to mention compared with the teachers at Chongwenguan.

He can basically learn new knowledge every day, and then he knew that he really came to accumulate experience in the jinshi examination this time. After reading Bai Shan's article, he knew that he might not be able to pass the jinshi examination in three years. .

And Bai Dalang and Bai Erlang's articles are not bad, and he also feels that they can't catch up.

Guan Yong whispered to his wife, "We should live until next year's Mingjing exam, I won't be able to pass the jinshi exam."

Zhou Lixin had long predicted that the jinshi would be so easy to pass the exam, so he nodded and said, "Don't be afraid, we just stay here, you can still study with Mr. We are still classmates."

Guan Yong couldn't help laughing when he heard this, and said, "If I had known that Mr. Zhuang was so powerful, he should have gone to Qili Village to study."

It's just that Mr. Zhuang was not well-known at the time. Compared with Mr. Zhuang who could only accept the invitation of Mr. Bai to teach a group of urchins in the village, it was naturally the two famous gentlemen in the county town that were better, so Guan Yong was sent to the county town early to study. , he has always been the most promising child in the three nearby villages except Bai Dalang.

It's a pity that Bai Shan came later, and Bai Erlang, who was not very good at reading, surpassed him and went to Yizhou to study...

Guan Yong coughed lightly, pulled back the thoughts of running away, and said to his wife, "I just want children."

Zhou Lixin also thought about it, the smile on his face fell, and he sighed: "I don't know if he is obedient at home, or I'll go back with the second uncle and the others after my sister-in-law gets married."

"Don't," Guan Yong said quickly, "You are willing to leave me alone."

"There are my parents here too."

Guan Yong shook his head, "Father-in-law and mother-in-law are naturally very good, but we have been together since we were married. Since you are in the capital, how can you go back alone? Don't worry, mother will definitely take care of the child."

Guan Yong suppressed his thoughts and worries, and in turn persuaded his wife.

Zhou Lixin thought that he would enter the examination room in a few days, and didn't want him to be distracted, so he nodded.

Two days after Chongyang passed, on September 12, the jinshi examination officially started, Bai Shan and the others went to send Bai Dalang and the three into the examination room.

Bai Shan, a successful person, personally sent people to the gate of Gongyuan, and also met Feng Zongping and Pei Shouyue. Just send them a blessing together, no matter what the prospects are, everyone is very ambitious at the moment.

However, they also planned for the worst. Feng Zongping said to Bai Erlang, "If you don't pass this time, we will study the Ming Sutra together next year."

Shiro nodded.

Bai Dalang also nodded.

Pei Shouyue and Guan Yong also nodded secretly.

In addition to looking at strategy theory and scriptures, the Jinshi examination also mainly looks at verses and the reputation of candidates.

Feng Zongping's reputation in the capital is not bad, and he is also the prince's companion. The examiners know him. In the past two years, he has written two or three good articles.

Bai Dalang is not small, he almost passed the exam last year, so most of the examiners have heard of him, but they are still no more famous than Bai Erlang.

This person is famous for three aspects: first, he is also the prince's companion; second, he is the future concubine; third, he is the junior brother of Zhou Man and Bai Shan, especially this year, he and Bai Shan Zhou Man wrote that The book about the Imperial Physician's Office was taken out by the emperor from time to time to share with the ministers.

As an examiner for the Jinshi examination, his identity is naturally not low, and they also did not miss Bai Erlang's essays.

Therefore, they also had to admit that Bai Erlang was still a practical talent, so he also put his papers into the middle when grading the papers.

After they have ranked them, they will take them into the palace to find the emperor. Well, the emperor usually chooses the top three. Of course, if he is interested, he can also rank in the back row.

The emperor took out Bai Dalang's paper and looked at it. He nodded in satisfaction and glanced at the list. Seeing that the examiners placed him in the twelfth place, he did not speak. When he looked at Bai Erlang again, he was a little tangled.

This time Li Maoyue was one of the examiners. Seeing the emperor pondering, he asked, "Your Majesty thinks this paper is not good?"

The emperor said: "It's not bad, I looked at the other papers, he may be slightly inferior in literary style, but his knowledge is not weaker than others, and he is pragmatic. Scholars..."

He felt that the honor was too great.

However, Li Maoyue listened to the emperor's other meaning, and laughed: "Your Majesty, Duke Wei said that you don't have to avoid relatives in order to be worthy. Bai Cheng has such talent, if he is a concubine, he will be defeated, and he will be treated to him. It's too unfair."

The emperor raised his eyebrows, agreeing, ahem, he's not pretending, he's not trying to let people know that it's not his favoritism that Bai Cheng can pass the exam, but that he really has the ability.

However, the emperor was still a little fair, and felt that he was still a bit watery to be ranked 20th, so he moved him to 23rd.

The examiners looked at Wei Wei and nodded, thinking that the emperor was fair, so the list was settled.
