Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Regarding Luo Zhan’s question.

Xu Yun was silent for a moment before answering, "It's to save ink, paper, and pens. After all, we used oracle bones in the past, and later bamboo slips, which took a lot of time and effort. It's best to be able to finish writing in three or two words. Even now, paper is very expensive."

That's why she was so shocked when she saw the books in the library.

And so envious.

The world of the future will definitely not be short of pens, ink and paper.

Not like now...

Xu Yun's words not only silenced Luo Zhan, but also silenced everyone else.

This principle seems to make sense, but it also seems not to be the case...

Xu Yun looked at Luo Zhan: "What don't you understand? Let me help you."

Luo Zhan was silent for a long time. Just when Xu Yun almost thought he would say no, he finally spoke: "I didn't understand half of it. I don't know if the rest is correct."

Xu Yun: ...Very good, just tell them directly that you need help to explain everything.

Luo Li took the initiative to take on this task: "Why don't I do it? I'll tell General Luo that you still need to study more now."

After all, there is still the imperial examination to be taken later.

Only she...

Xu Yun thought about it and agreed: "Then I'll trouble Luo Li. When he understands it later, he will definitely give him a thank you gift."

Luo Zhan glanced at Xu Yun.

But there was no rebuttal.

He just warned Xu Yun with his eyes: What are you doing for me?

Xu Yun pretended not to see it: seeing how stingy Luo Zhan was, she was really afraid that Luo Li would work for nothing.

So, after dinner, Xu Yun and the others continued to read the annotated articles, while Luo Li talked about the military book with Luo Zhan.

After Luo Li translated it into easy-to-understand words, Luo Zhan was finally able to understand what was said in the military book.

So he was completely fascinated.

Only those who have fought in wars can understand the subtleties of these strategies!

When it comes to the most exciting parts, Luo Zhan would even slap the table and stand up excitedly: "There is such a wonderful book in the world!"

Even Luo Li looked inside.

Xu Yun and the others were frightened by Luo Zhan at first, but they got used to it later - when studying, who doesn't get excited sometimes? !

So, the afternoon passed quietly.

When it got dark, everyone was still reluctant to leave.

Hongyu shouted once but it was no use, so she pulled Xie Wanqing over.

Xie Wanqing frowned: "It's getting dark, get up and move around, do what you need to do, and continue reading tomorrow!"

Luo Zhan refused: "Light the lamps. Light two more, it doesn't cost much——"

"It's not about whether it costs money or not." Xie Wanqing explained gently, not allowing room for refusal: "It hurts your eyes. If your eyes are damaged, you won't be able to see things clearly in the future. Reading or doing delicate work under the lamp hurts your eyes the most."

Besides, my joints are stiff after not moving for a whole day.

Xu Yun did feel sore in his back and waist, so he pounded his lower back with his backhand and yawned, "You can't chew too much, let's continue tomorrow. Luo Zhan, if you want to watch it, take it home and watch it."

Luo Zhan took a deep breath and didn't want to argue with Xu Yun.

Turning around, he thanked Luo Li in a friendly manner and asked Luo Li to continue helping him translate tomorrow.

Then, he left with the military book as if it were a treasure.

I thought that even though I still couldn’t understand the latter part, I could still look at the previous part.

The more you think about this kind of thing, the deeper your understanding will be.

Xu Yun was speechless for a moment as she looked at Luo Zhan's contrasting expressions. She sighed, "The book is still mine, why are you being so rude to me!"

Everyone laughed.

Then Zeng Wuji and Zhao Mu also said goodbye and left.

Zeng Wuji invited Zhao Mu to sleep at his house today, so that the two of them could chat by candlelight at night and share their feelings with each other.

Xu Yun could see that Zeng Wuji was indeed much more proactive this time than before.

Hongyu twisted a hot handkerchief for Xu Yun: "Apply it to your eyes quickly! You've been using it for a whole day and you don't even know how to take a break!"

She and Xie Wanqing also weave cloth, which is also a strain on the eyes, so she knows best how uncomfortable it is to have sore and swollen eyes.

Seeing the handkerchief on his face, Xu Yun sat with his head tilted back and laughed twice: "I forgot for a moment."

Hongyu also handed a handkerchief to Luo Li.

Luo Li thanked him.

Hongyu asked Luo Li, "My daughter Ah Yun is young and always disobedient. I can't watch her all the time. Miss Luo, please remind her for me. I really don't trust anyone else."

Luo Li's injury has improved a lot in the past few days. He has been helping out diligently and attentively in everything he can, which has immediately improved Hongyu's impression of him.

Luo Li covered her eyes and responded with a smile.

After applying the eye mask and having dinner, the family then took a walk in the yard with Xu Yun and Luo Li.

In fact, they wanted to go out for a walk, but because of what happened before, they really didn't dare to go out too often.

After all, if something happens at this time and delays the exam, it would really not be worth it.

Not to mention Xu Yun, even Xie Wanqing and Hongyu hardly went out. If they needed something, they would either go with Chen Ku or simply ask their neighbors to bring it back.

Now Aunt Deng goes out on business every day, so it happens to be on her way.

And in Aunt Deng's words, the neighborhood committee is all about helping out, and the Xu family is not having a convenient time right now, so this is exactly the time for them to come in handy.

Xie Wanqing didn't bother to be polite with Aunt Deng.

After all, everything now has to be based on Xu Yun's imperial examination. Everything else has to come second.

This went on until March.

The county examination was scheduled for the sixth day of March.

The closer it gets to the sixth day of March, the more nervous everyone becomes.

Xie Wanqing, in particular, was almost unable to sleep at night - when she thought of what happened last night, she wished she could take a kitchen knife and guard Xu Yun's door every day.

However, she also knew that would make Xu Yun worried, so she only dared to say these words to Hongyu.

Hongyu didn't dare to tell Xu Yun, and only told Xie Wanqing that she would be more alert every night. Moreover, now that she and Xu Yun slept in the same room, she would definitely take good care of Xu Yun.

This exam lasted for a total of one and a half days, and we had to spend the night in the Imperial Examination Hall.

Xu Yun was fine, but Xie Wanqing and Hongyu were extremely nervous.

They discussed again and again what specific things to prepare, and some things were taken out and brought in over and over again. Finally, they finalized a list and asked Xu Yun to see what else needed to be prepared.

In light of what happened last time, Xu Yun simply brought an extra set of pens.

The weather in early March is not very cold, but Xu Yun still brought a thin coat with him - he would wear it to sleep at night, so he would not need to bring a thick quilt. And if the dormitory was cold, he could also use it to keep warm.

The most important thing is what to eat.

The numbered dormitory is where food is distributed.

Three meals a day consisted of steamed buns and a bowl of vegetable soup.

You have to bring your own bowl.

These things can fill your stomach, but they really only fill your stomach.

Therefore, Xie Wanqing brought a few boiled eggs, some cooked meat sauce, and a few salted duck eggs for Xu Yun.

Salted duck eggs can be eaten with steamed buns, which at least gives a salty taste to the mouth.

In addition, Xie Wanqing also prepared a curtain for Xu Yun - she was a woman after all, and if she wanted to go to the bathroom, she would definitely cover herself.

Xu Yun thought about it and suggested: "Let's prepare a urine bucket. I'm afraid all the rooms have prepared urinals. Let's prepare a smaller urine bucket for ourselves."
