Why marry someone when you are reborn?

Xu Yun really didn't know whether to laugh or cry.

But she also knows that this is all thanks to the library.

As for this trick, no one else can copy it.

But Feng Shihua said:

Xu Yun thought about it and gave him a few books. He also asked him to study the new policies of the past one or two years and discuss them with more people.

Finally, Xu Yun wrote him a tip sheet and told him to open it on the morning of the examination day.

Then, he asked someone to send it to Feng Shihua.

On the first day of July, the order came down from above, confirming that the Autumn Examination would be held.

What needs to be held in the county town is the county examination.

Xu Yun asked how the Lingtai County exam was held last year, and Zhu Qing replied awkwardly, "Only eighteen people signed up, so they ended up co-hosting it with several surrounding counties. It was held in Wan'an County."

For a moment, Xu Yun was speechless.

I think there won't be many people this year...

Xu Yun made a decision on the spot: "If there are still not many people, less than 50, we can discuss it with other counties. But we will send a few people from our county to see them off and bring them back after the exam. Don't let anything happen on the way."

Zhu Qing nodded repeatedly, then smiled and said, "In fact, if we wait another year or two, there will be more people. The children will have grown up."

Xu Yun nodded.

But when I was having dinner with Gao Yu and the others in the evening, I couldn't help but talk about this matter.

Xu Yun took a bite of the multi-grain pancake and sighed, "This year, there is no mention of men and women taking the imperial examination together."

Luo Li also knew about this.

She sighed as well.

Then Gao Yu spoke up: "I'm afraid that the two majesties can't handle the pressure."

Luo Li nodded and said, "It should be. After all, Ah Yun's efforts have not produced any results, and it is difficult for the two majesties to say anything."

After they finished speaking, they looked at Xu Yun in unison.

Xu Yun took a bite of the cake and said vaguely, "So, I have really become a key figure."

The pressure is a bit high...

But if it really works, can we also ask for more benefits?

She has achieved results under such great pressure and has been able to make the two Majesties stand up straight... I think it won't be too much to ask for more benefits, right?

As Xu Yun thought about it, he couldn't help but reveal a look of joy in his eyes.

Luo Li smiled.

Gao Yu reminded her: "Don't think about it, or you'll laugh out loud!"

Xu Yun said "Oh", then obediently picked up a piece of scrambled eggs with chopsticks and stopped thinking about those things.

Just as Xu Yun thought, there were even fewer people taking the imperial examination this year.

In the entire Lingtai County, there are only seventeen people who signed up.

These seventeen people are the ones who failed the imperial examination last time.

Looking at the list, Xu Yun couldn't help but sigh: This is such a poor place! There are so few scholars!

These seventeen people include all the wealthy and gentry families in the county.

Xu Yun looked upset and waved his hands: "Alright, alright, go ahead and do it. I'll write a letter, can you deliver it?"

Zhu Qing did not disagree and said cheerfully, "If you ask, they will definitely agree."

As for the rankings - there are only 17 people, how can we rank them? After we finish the exam successfully, we can all go and try the next one!

Xu Yun didn't worry about this at all.

What she was really worried about was the autumn harvest.

The autumn examination is held after the autumn harvest.

Harvest in autumn first.

This year's autumn harvest is destined to be different.

The batch of rice seedlings that were planted in advance have already been filled with grain and are about to mature and be harvested.

An experienced farmer took one look and came to the conclusion: "It must be a bigger harvest than the rice from ordinary breeding. Just look at the ears! You can tell how heavy they are!"

After hearing this, Xu Yun felt relieved.

But no one dares to say anything for sure until they get the money.

There is land in the county government where rice seedlings were planted in advance, and they are being harvested now.

But Xu Yun listened to the old farmer's advice and was not in a hurry. Instead, he let the rice grow a little longer and started harvesting it when it was ripe.

On the day of harvest, Xu Yun and Luo Li personally went to the fields to help with the harvest.

Of course I am tired, but my heart is full of expectations.

It was the first time for Xu Yun to do this kind of work, so he was not as skillful as others, but after getting used to it, he was pretty good.

Finally, after cutting for two quarters of an hour, Xu Yun could no longer straighten her back and was completely exhausted. In addition, the autumn heat was very severe, and she was almost covered in sweat and her face was red.

She supported her waist and stood up straight, and asked Luo Li: "How long will the farmers take to harvest?"

Luo Li wiped his sweat off his forehead and said calmly, "Normally, it will take three or four days. We go out at dawn and clean up at dusk. The women harvest the rice, and the men throw the millet down. Once it's all down, we take it back to dry in the sun - this will take another ten days. Millet that hasn't been dried in the sun will easily sprout and mold."

If the weather is bad and it's cloudy or it rains when you should be drying the millet, it would be really frustrating.

Xu Yun didn't dare to imagine whether he would be able to survive after working for three days.

She could only sigh: "That was really hard."

Luo Li bent down and continued to cut. As he cut, he said, "We will know the approximate yield of millet from this field this afternoon."

Although the weight is definitely not accurate because it contains water, it can be roughly estimated.

At that time, you can report it.

Luo Li really wanted to know how big the difference was, so he kept working.

Seeing how fast she worked, Xu Yun gritted his teeth and followed suit. Finally, Gao Yu grabbed him and said, "How can you do this? You should use your hands more for writing."

After saying that, he pulled Luo Li back and frowned, "We don't need any more people, why are you working so hard?"

Luo Li smiled: "One more person will make it faster——"

"If you do this, A'yun won't be able to rest well. Come on, the three of us will go to the shade of the tree over there and watch them work." Gao Yu snatched Luo Li's sickle and threw it aside without saying a word, then took the two of them, one in each hand, and went to the shade of the tree to rest and drink water.

Luo Li was helpless, but seeing the look on Xu Yun's face, he really couldn't bear it any longer, so he just followed him obediently.

However, the county government had no shortage of people, and many constables also came along to work.

It was pretty quick.

Less than an hour after lunch, one acre of land had been harvested.

Xu Yun immediately asked someone to weigh the threshed millet.

Before the weighing was finished, everyone's face was already filled with joy.

Zhu Qing could be called excited: "It's already 400 kilograms now! How can there be only 350 kilograms left after it's dried! This is at least 20 kilograms more than usual!"

Xu Yun was also happy: "There is still a basket left, weigh it quickly!"

That basket weighed another fifty kilograms.

Zhu Qing was even more excited: "Fifty kilograms! This one acre of land has a yield of nearly four hundred kilograms! This is so much higher! It's simply a miracle! A miracle!"

At this moment, Xu Yun was truly relieved.

Going back is a foregone conclusion!

Luo Li and Gao Yu were also happy.

Gao Yu was happy for Xu Yun and happy that she could go back.

As a child from a poor family, Luo Li was truly happy for the people! With these few dozen kilograms of extra children, we can feed one more child! And the family can have a few more meals!
