Quick wear is not a cannon fodder

This year is not the year of the provincial examination, but it will be next fall. From this spring's college examination to next autumn's autumn, there will be a year and a half. She still hopes that in this year and a half, with her intensive tutoring, Li Silang can be able to do it next year. After all, if you fail to pass the imperial examination next year, you will not know the Year of the Monkey, Horse and Moon, because next year Li Silang will be twenty-three. If you fail to pass the imperial examination next year, you will have to take the exam again in three years. By then, Li Silang will be twenty-three. At sixteen, even if he could pass the imperial examination, the imperial examination would not happen overnight. She was very worried that Li Silang would never pass the imperial examination. After all, it was very difficult to pass the imperial examination.

Although she was worried, An Ran had no choice but to help Li Silang answer questions from time to time, thinking that letting Li Silang take more exams and using question-sea tactics would help Li Silang pass the exam next year.

Fortunately, Li Silang is still making progress for the time being. As long as there is progress, there is hope.

If there is no progress one day, then she will cry. After all, it means that Li Silang only has such a high talent, and it will be useless no matter how much he learns.

And if Li Silang's talent is not good, it is best to take puzzle pills and other things to improve his intelligence, but those things are common in the world of cultivation and interstellar, but you can't see them here. I want to buy them for Li Silang from the mall. Eating, because it's not possible due to the system's rules, just make it yourself. Those materials are not available in this world, so it's also not possible. Since the wisdom pill and other things that improve intelligence cannot be made, An Ran can only hope that Li Silang's talent will be better. As long as the talent is good and she gives a lot of tutoring, there is still hope of passing the Jinshi exam; if the talent is not good, no matter how much tutoring she has, it will be useless, and she really doesn't know what to do then.

Time passed quickly, and it was the second autumn in a blink of an eye.

Their child was now two years old. Li Silang celebrated his child's birthday at home in advance and then set off. After all, this autumn, he was going to Zhouzhi to take the exam. Although Dongfeng Village was not far from the location of Zhouzhi, even if It is said that it takes five days to take a carriage. There is no way. No matter how far it is, the transportation in ancient times was inconvenient and it will still take such a long time, so why not go there in advance.

Because it takes such a long time to go back and forth, and there may be expenses during the exam, we can't save too much, so the Li family asked Li Silang to take twenty taels of silver with him on the road. After all, the poor family has too little money. If there is an urgent need for money, If you don't have any money, don't delay things.

And these twenty taels of silver took away all the money that Li Silang and the old couple had.

There was no way. Li Silang had spent money before taking the county examination, government examination, and hospital examination. That money cost them a lot of money. When the family was separated, Li Silang had twenty-five taels. The old couple still had twenty taels of silver and four taels of money, which totaled more than fifty taels of silver. But no matter how much money they had, they couldn't stop Li Silang and his wife from spending money lavishly. Then Li Silang once It was another exam to use money for, so this time I went out and spent almost all the money at home, which is normal.

An Ran thought that if Li Silang failed to pass the exam this time and took the exam again three years later, she might have to use her private property.

And in the past year and a half, because of her tutoring as a prospective Jinshi, Li Silang benefited a lot more than those who studied in the school, and made great progress. After all, those people did not have Jinshi to teach them, most of them were taught by Juren or even scholars. .

Although Li Silang has made great progress due to his strong teaching staff, An Ran cannot guarantee that he will pass the exam, so he naturally makes such a plan.

Fortunately, when An Ran entered the mission, he asked Shen's father and Shen's mother to help him change the fifty taels of private houses into five acres of paddy fields and rent them to others for farming. He could earn about five taels of silver a year, plus In addition to expenses, she has saved about ten taels of silver in the past few years. In the next three years, she will probably be able to save ten taels of silver, and she will still have enough money for Li Silang to take exams. There is no need for her to sell her land and lose her capital if she is in need of money.

But if he doesn't pass the exam next time, and if he doesn't save enough money in three years, he will probably have to use up his capital, and if he takes the exam a few more times, her dowry will be used up.

Therefore, Li Silang must pass the exam this time or next time. Otherwise, not to mention that he is getting older year by year, his memory will gradually decline, and it will be more difficult to pass the exam. Even with this trouble, there will be no place to look for. Because there is no need to count on Li Silang's brothers.

The reason for this certainty is that before the exam, the old couple had already talked to Li Sanlang and others, saying that Li Silang didn't have enough money and could each of them chip in. In the end, one or two of them cried out and said no. Not to mention that the third-bedroom apartment, which had already had objections to the fourth-bedroom apartment, had no money for it. Even the second-bedroom apartment, which was a large apartment that was intended to be repaired with the fourth-bedroom apartment, they all said they had no money. Then they took out two strings of money and said that the house was like that. There are many things, so that the fourth child will not be offended and buy some tea on the way.

An Ran knew that this was because they planned to make a bet on Li Silang, so they gave the family 200 Wen for traveling expenses. If they didn't plan to make a bet like Sanfang, they wouldn't give it at all. And if Li Silang failed the exam this time, First, they felt that they had made a wrong bet, and they would not ask them to borrow it next time. As for the next time, it would be even more impossible. Therefore, Li Silang's chance of winning the election is not just this time or next time, otherwise by then Don't say you can't pass the exam, even if you can pass the exam, you can only go blind if you don't have the money.

However, An Ran was afraid that Li Silang didn't like to exercise and just read books. When the time came, he would be running around and taking exams and his body wouldn't be able to handle it, so he would drag Li Silang to exercise regularly.

Because of this, Li Silang walked for five days in a row, and he was still energetic, while some students looked like they were so tired that they had lost half their lives.

Li Silang looked at the faces of everyone and couldn't help but secretly thought that his wife had done something right by dragging him for morning jogging every day, otherwise his weak body would not be able to bear the long journey.

Seeing others looking depressed, Li Silang couldn't help but feel a little more confident in his own scientific examination.

Not to mention that Li Silang gained a little more confidence because of An Ran's small move, but on An Ran's side, shortly after Li Silang left, she had pregnancy symptoms again. She didn't even need to let the doctor see her, she felt the pulse herself. You know, she is pregnant again.

But this is normal. After all, she did not use birth control. The eldest child is two years old, so it is normal for her to become pregnant.

She has thought about it. After giving birth to the five children her original mother gave birth to, she will definitely take the contraceptive pills sold in the mall to prevent her health from giving birth to seven or eight or ten children. This is not a lie. , because the original couple passed away early and their quality of life was not good in the later period, so there were only five of them at that time. If their quality of life as a couple was good, after five children, they would definitely have more children, so how could they do it without contraception? .

If it weren't for completing the mission assigned by the original person to let her five children live a good life, otherwise she might only have two children before using birth control - one child is too few, for fear of being nagged by Mrs. Li.
