Walking into a cesspit, the best evil widow wants to stand up
Chapter 535 Imperial Examination
Today is the sixth day of the exam. Although Xu Hao has been in this small cubicle for a few days, he is full of energy every day.
When Mrs. Shen came from Kaoshan Village, she brought Mo Ru's letter to Xu Hao. The words between the lines revealed her concern and expectations for him.
Whenever Xu Hao felt sleepy, he would take out the letters and read them, and he would be filled with strength and inspiration. He was not fighting alone, his wife and children were with him.
Although he and Mo Ru have not yet married, in his heart, he has already regarded her as his wife.
Originally, the letter could not be brought into the examination room. In order to prove that he was not cheating, Xu Hao showed the letter to the invigilator, who then allowed him to bring it in.
He Yao had no distractions and was calm during the exam. After the exam, he rested peacefully, after all, it was not his first time taking the exam.
As for Wuchun, although it was his first time to take the exam, he was calm and had solid basic skills. He felt no pressure after taking the exam for several days in a row.
Although they lived in a small cubicle, they felt it was a pleasure every time they ate, because Shen Ping prepared a lot of things for them that they had never eaten before.
There are also beef jerky and pork jerky, which can also satisfy your cravings.
That night, Wuchun took out a bucket of noodles, and his mother gave each of them a few buckets. They had never seen this stuff before, so his mother said to just boil it in water and soak it.
There was only a small stove in the examination room, with coal burning in it for them to keep warm. There was also a clay basin and a water tank inside.
Wuchun suddenly had an idea. He placed a clay pot on the stove, scooped some water into it, and soaked the noodles again. There were also various seasonings in the noodles. In less than ten minutes, the whole yard was filled with fragrance. Everyone sniffed.
"smell good!"
Everyone stuck their heads out of the door to look in, wanting to see who was eating what.
Wuchun stuck his head out and saw Xu Hao looking around, so he immediately reminded him how to make instant noodles, which immediately made the students around him envious.
He Yao also heard it, and the two of them immediately started to learn in the same way. After a while, the fragrance in the examination room became stronger.
Several people ate noodles with relish, making the candidates next to them drool with envy. The steamed buns and steamed bread in their hands suddenly lost their flavor.
"Hey~ What kind of noodles are you eating? It smells so good. I'll exchange it with you for a pancake!" A candidate next to him spoke and stretched out his hand with a pancake in his hand.
Xu Hao looked at the five buckets of noodles he still had, and since they were next door, it was fate, so he immediately handed over a bucket of noodles, but didn't take his pancakes.
Unexpectedly, the other party insisted that he accept the pancake, and Xu Hao had no choice but to accept it.
Seeing this, some candidates also followed Xu Hao's example and changed their faces with Wuchun and He Yao.
The other candidates could only look at them with envy since they were right next door to them.
A yamen runner heard the commotion and smelled the fragrance, and then walked in with a serious face, shouting: "This is only the examination room, no noise is allowed, be quiet, or you will be kicked out of the examination room."
Hearing the bailiff's scolding, everyone retreated and fell silent instantly. The bailiff smelled the fragrance and came to Xu Hao and looked around.
The smell was so fragrant, he had never smelled anything like it before.
The yamen runner saw Xu Hao eating noodles, swallowed his saliva, and frowned: "This is not at home, you better take it easy and don't make too much noise, or you will be disqualified from the exam."
Xu Hao observed the runner's expression and knew that he was greedy. He curled his lips, picked up a bucket of noodles and handed him two pieces of beef jerky.
With a big smile on his face, he handed it to the yamen runner and said, "Sir, this noodle is really delicious. Please try it. There are a lot of seasonings in it. You don't need to cook it, just soak it in boiling water."
"How dare you! You still want to bribe the officials!" The bailiff looked around and pretended to scold, but when he saw that no one was paying attention, he took Xu Hao's noodles and beef jerky and stuffed them into his arms.
"You have to be careful and this won't happen again!" The bailiff Wu San said this and left.
It was his turn to be on duty tonight, so he had to secretly try this noodle. Smelling the fragrance in the air, his mouth was watering.
Back at the gatehouse, Wu San couldn't wait to stuff the beef jerky into his mouth. All of a sudden, a salty, spicy taste rushed to his head, and it was so delicious that he wanted to swallow his tongue.
The boiling water on the stove was smoking, and Wu San started to soak the noodles. After a while, the noodles softened and tasted so good that Wu San even drank the soup.
Unexpectedly, the candidate actually had such a good thing. In the next few days, Wu San always went to hang around in front of Xu Hao and Wu Chun.
When others weren't paying attention, they would always share some good food with him, and Wu San'er would always be the first to give them more charcoal and water.
Finally, the last exam was over. The invigilator collected the test papers and announced the end of the exam. The bailiff opened the door and everyone walked out of the small cubicle.
"Oh~ The exam is finally over!" Xu Hao stretched lazily and took a deep breath. The air outside tasted sweet.
Xu Hao was eager to go home. Thinking that he could go back to Kaoshan Village to see Mo Ru, he didn't want to wait even a moment longer.
A young man in a blue Confucian robe saluted with both hands and said, "My dear brother, my surname is Peng, my name is Xuedong, what is your name?"
Xu Hao was stunned. He didn't know who this person was!
The other person saw his confusion and said with a smile, "I'm next to you~" and pointed to the examination grid.
"Oh~"
Xu Hao suddenly realized that it was him who had exchanged the pancake for instant noodles.
Immediately afterwards, Xu Hao also introduced himself. This was really a one-time encounter.
"Brother Xu, your noodles are really delicious!" Peng Xuedong exclaimed, still feeling the fragrance between his lips and teeth.
Xu Hao remembered that he had another bucket in his hand, so he took it out from his bag and handed it to him: "Brother Peng, I have another bucket here, I'll give it to you."
"Oh~" Peng Xuedong's eyes lit up: "Then I won't be polite!"
"Xu Hao, let's go! Uncle Dadong is still waiting for us outside!" Wuchun and He Yao came over.
"Okay! See you later, Brother Xu!"
"Goodbye~"
The three of them followed a group of students out of the examination room. There were many carriages waiting outside the door.
As Wuchun and the others walked out of the examination room, Dadong saw them at a glance, immediately laughed, raised his hands excitedly, and shouted loudly: "Master Wu, I'm here!"
"Uncle Dadong is there, calling you~" Xu Hao pulled Wuchun's sleeve and pointed at Dadong.
Wuchun took a look and found that it was indeed Uncle Dadong. Seeing people around looking at him, Wuchun suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
He grew up in a poor family and there were no servants at home. Now that his family is better off and has servants, he is still not used to them calling him the Fifth Young Master.
I've told them many times, but they just won't change.
