Making money, taking exams, and raising a family in rural imperial examinations

'Lin Ze' opened his eyes in a daze, and found himself in a particularly strange place.

Of course, this 'Lin Ze' is not the other Lin Ze. To ensure everyone's distinction, the original owner of 'Lin Ze' will be called Lin Zhe from now on.

This is a very gorgeous room, the floor is made of unknown material like white jade, and the top of the head is like a night pearl the size of a watermelon!There are also human-high crystal mirrors mounted on the walls.

Although he didn't know many things, it didn't prevent Lin Zhe from being shocked by the luxury here.

This is not his house, his house is just a small poor family in the village, how could there be such a room, he must be dreaming!

Lin Zhe asked himself that he was not a person who was greedy for wealth and honor. He only wanted to pass the imperial examination. How could he have such an absurd dream?

But the real touch is not like a dream...

Dizzy in his head, Lin Zhe stared at everything in front of him stupidly, until a while, a memory that didn't belong to him got into his head, after the pain, his face showed a look of astonishment and absurdity.

He hurriedly ran to the mirror that could reflect people, and saw in a panic the person who looked exactly like him but with short hair, his eyes were full of horror.

time travel?Resurrect the dead?He traveled from ancient times to modern times?Transmigrated to a person who looks similar to him and has the same name?

This is not something that Lin Zhe can recognize with his level of knowledge, but what the memory that just merged into his mind told him.

The world he is in now should simply be called the future, the future after thousands of years, but people now prefer to call it 'modern'.

The original owner of the body he was staying in was also named Lin Ze, 30 years old this year, a project manager of a large company, with an annual salary of tens of millions, a house, a car, parents, siblings, but no wife.

Although he couldn't adapt for a while, Lin Zhe could still know from the description of that memory that the original owner of the body was a very outstanding man in terms of career, beyond his reach.

And the fact that the other party has no daughter-in-law is not because he cannot marry, but because he has not met someone he likes. The other party likes men, but there is no younger brother here.

No brother? !

Lin Zhe was shocked when he heard this realization, which is similar to Lin Ze's reaction when he traveled through ancient times and discovered that men can have children.

But soon Lin Zhe calmed down, even such a bizarre thing as traveling through the future happened, when can it not happen?

Not only does this world have no little brothers, but people can fly to the sky, dive into the bottom of the sea, talk and transmit voices across thousands of miles, etc. Things that seemed impossible in his era are all normal. People in this era are simply more powerful than gods... …

After understanding his situation, Lin Zhe sat by the bed. He didn't know what mood he was in, it was very complicated anyway.

In his own world, he lived a very unfortunate life. His father always expected him and his second brother to pass the imperial examination, and worked hard for most of his life, but he failed to live up to it.

It's not that he never thought of giving up, but he was not reconciled, he liked reading, how could he give up so easily after a few years of hardship?

But the reality is always unsatisfactory. Every time he fails in the exam, the disappointment of his father, the scolding of his mother, he even can only watch the person he likes change to his younger brother, but he marries someone he doesn't like. people come back.

All the pressure and wave after wave of setbacks made him feel increasingly depressed, his temper became more and more irritable and he couldn't control himself.

He knew that that kind of situation had nothing to do with the little brother named Ah Yu, but every time he saw the other party, he remembered that the woman he loved was going to marry his younger brother, and the unwillingness and strong resentment in his heart could not be controlled to vent to on the other side.

That little brother was actually quite nice, even though he bullied him, he never said a word, worked hard and took care of his daily life.

Looking at the cuteness of the other party, Lin Zhe actually regretted that he had vented his grievances on an innocent little brother, and even beat the other party in an insulting way, almost like a man in a daze.

After tossing for more than half a year, he also began to think about whether to accept his fate and live a good life with Brother Yu, let's give up...

But at this moment, Yinzhu told him that it was Zhang Yu's mother and son who wanted to marry into their Lin family and live a good life, so they deliberately poked the old lady of Zhang's family to ask for their attention.

After all, although their Lin family is not rich, they still live in a good house. His father has the skill of frying tea by hand, and the two brothers are still talented men. No matter how they live, they will not live too badly in the future. It is not uncommon to rely on in-laws for the rest of your life.

He liked Yinzhu, so he believed it naturally, but he was confused at the time.

What he hates the most in his life is that others plot against him. When he accidentally broke into the teacher's daughter's room, it was planned by others. Although he didn't know who it was, he knew that he got the trick.

So in a fit of anger, he listened to Zhang Yinzhu's words and went to find Xue Liang, a businessman in the village, planning to sell Zhang Yu and elope with Yinzhu.

But now that I think about it... something seems wrong.

He has been with Brother Yu for more than half a year, and Brother Yu doesn't seem to be such a thoughtful person. After marrying him, how can he live a good life? He works like a cow and a horse every day, honestly.

If the other party is really greedy for money, then every time the father gave the other party money for home use, the other party would not accept it. Instead, he would go to pick up some work in private, go up the mountain to find some wild things and sell them to make money, and all the things he brought back to his mother's house. Subsidized by my own house.

Although he really didn't want to admit it, now that his mind is clear and thinking about it carefully, Lin Zhe has to suspect that Zhang Yinzhu, whom he has always liked, may have lied to him.

He actually did such an impulsive and inhuman thing, and he didn't know what happened to brother Yu now. If Xue Liang really took the deed to arrest someone, what a crime he would have done...

After waking up now, Lin Zhe felt strong guilt and remorse in his heart, how could he treat Brother Yu like that.

But it's too late to say anything now, he got to this place somehow and couldn't go back, the only thing he can do now is to pray that things will turn around, Brother Yu is a good brother, and the other party should have a happy life.

"Ding-boom"

"Manager Lin, are you awake? We still have half an hour left to fly to City K for a meeting."

The hotel doorbell rang, and a man's reminder came from outside.

Lin Zhe was stunned for a moment before realizing that it was Xiao Li, the original body's helper.

"Well, I see, you pack up and wait in the lobby..."

According to Yuanshen's memory, there seemed to be a very important meeting. Yuanshen had worked hard on this project for more than half a year. After it was settled, it seemed that he would be able to take a long vacation. Yuanshen was going to take this vacation to go back and visit his parents and younger siblings.

Lin Zhe had to admit that this original body, who looked similar to him and had a similar name, was much better than him in all aspects. His father supported him to read books for so many years, but he hadn't been filial to him until his death. What a shame.

Although this body was several years older than him, he didn't lose at all, and even earned a lot.According to the standards of people in this world, the original body of this body is definitely a golden bachelor of the rich and handsome level.

It is said that he is a scholar who is useless. After studying for so many years, not only did he fail to make a career, but even his character was ruined...

Lin Zhe couldn't help smiling wryly, his 20 years of life was wasted, he owed his father and his brother Yu too much.

With complicated emotions and memory fusion confusion, he packed his luggage according to his memory in a daze, and then went to the lobby to meet Xiao Li.

He can't show anything wrong, otherwise he would be burned to death as a monster in his era, but here he would be sent to the dissection experiment of cutting his stomach and head, which is more painful than death.

Lin Zhe is a scholar after all, and his insight and tolerance are not comparable to ordinary people, so he quickly analyzed and understood the situation.

Anyway, God sent him to such a beautiful era, he should cherish everything now, living is the most correct choice, after so many years of humiliation, how can he be defeated by the current experience.

Followed Xiao Li to the airport by car, and watched him leave the ground and fly to the sky.

Lin Zhe's mood could not be described as shocking and flustered. After gradually merging the memories in his head, looking at the blue sky and white clouds outside the plane window, he truly felt the beauty and prosperity of this new world...

Relying on the memory of the original owner in his mind, he successfully concealed his identity and successfully completed the meeting and project negotiation.

"Old Lin, let's go. It's rare to see each other. You can't leave today unless you have a drink with us."

In the Qiadan party, there are friends that Yuanshen had known before, and after discussing business matters, they started thinking about getting together.

These are the work contacts accumulated by the original body that cannot be lost, and it is also a workplace practice to accompany the partner to eat and drink after negotiating the contract.

Lin Zhe didn't want to go, but he couldn't refuse, so he could only endure it temporarily.

As the saying goes, to find a job in his position, before he has made a plan, he must play the role of the original body, and he must leave after eating and drinking with these partners. This is the rule of the game in this era.

Because they are all rich people and a group of men, the place where everyone goes is naturally a high-end club with all kinds of services.

Fortunately, Yuanzheng's former friends knew that Yuanzheng didn't like messing around, so they just persuaded him to drink, and didn't push him. Everyone talked, laughed and drank, and then molested the beauties and men around him. The atmosphere was warm and ambiguous, but not lewd. .chaos.

This made Lin Zhe heave a sigh of relief.

He is a pedantic scholar in his heart, and he pays attention to red sleeves. Looking at the revealing clothes of people in this era, he already feels indecent. How can he accept so many people messing around in a private room.

So when everyone was in the mood to play and took the beauties and men around him to open a room, Lin Zhe naturally waved goodbye and prepared to retreat, and ordered Xiao Li to follow him to settle the hotel bill for several partners and entertain them.

Walking out of the turbid club, Lin Zhe took a deep breath. He really didn't like Yuan's smooth workplace environment.

In Yuanshen's memory, Yuanshen seemed to be from a scholarly family. His parents were both famous professors in the university. With such a good environment for studying and nurturing, I really don't understand why Yuanshen likes to do business. It's really weird.

After completing the company project, Lin Zhe got a one-month long vacation and generous bonuses.

The boss patted him on the shoulder to praise and encourage him, let him rest and relax, and continue to work hard. If he works hard, he will be the best candidate to take over the country Z market in the future, and his career will reach a higher level.

But Lin Zhe was not too happy, he was not the original Lin Ze, even if he had memory, he would not be able to do business.

So he quickly chose to resign. No matter how his boss tried to persuade him to stay, he still chose to leave. He couldn't play the original Lin Ze for the rest of his life. Doing things that he couldn't do would reveal his truth sooner or later.

He wanted to teach in a university. This was originally what the Lin family's parents expected. The former Lin Ze also studied related majors, but the other party didn't like it and didn't go, so he ran out for another time.

After thinking about it, Lin Zhe felt that the job of teaching at a university was very suitable for him, especially teaching literature, and it would not be in vain for his years of hard study.

After calling home and explaining the situation, Lin Zhe packed up his simple luggage and prepared to go home after getting the happy approval of Lin's parents.

The Lin family's parents live in the next city, so the distance is still very close.

After traveling to the modern age and being familiar with it for so many days, relying on the memories of his original body, Lin Zhe also adapted to modern life very quickly. It is not a problem to use a computer for driving and so on.

However, due to the short time, the driving skills must still be inferior to the original body before, so he got into a car accident halfway.

It was a very small car accident, and there was nothing wrong with it. It was just that the steering wheel was out of alignment and hit a young boy on the side of the road, scratching him.

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, your hand is bleeding, I'll take you to the hospital..."

Lin Zhe was startled, and hurriedly stopped to check. He was a little annoyed when he saw the boy's elbow that was scratched and bleeding.

If I had known that he was still riding a car honestly, I had to drive out of curiosity, so I hit someone now!

"It's okay, you don't need to go to the hospital."

The young boy shook his head, but he didn't accept his kindness. He didn't feel any problem when he moved his hands and feet. He wiped the blood on his hands casually, then picked up his backpack and left, looking absent-minded.

But Lin Zhe was a little worried and apprehensive.

To be honest, although he has become a bit gloomy and irritable due to various blows these years, in fact, because he has not been out much, his interpersonal skills are very weak, and his conduct has been cultivated by books for many years. Never deny it.

The more than ten days of adapting to modern life has gradually calmed down his temper that has been suppressed for many years. He is really worried that people will just leave like this.

I heard that many modern car accidents are not obvious at the time, but they are actually internal injuries. If they are not treated in time, they may be fatal.

"Let's go and have a look. You're bleeding. What if it's an internal injury? I'll go to jail if something happens to you. It's better to go to the hospital for an examination. It's me who hit you, and I'll take care of all the medical treatment." The inspection fee..."

Lin Zhe was worried, and regardless of whether the boy agreed or not, he dragged him into the car and drove to the nearest hospital immediately.

The boy glanced at his anxious and worried face, then looked at his bleeding arm, pursed his lips, and finally did not refuse again, allowing Lin Zhe to take him to the hospital for examination.

Looking at the brand of this man's car, as well as the custom-made suit he was wearing and the expensive watch in his hand, it seemed that he was a rich man, and he didn't lack the few inspection fees. Since the other party insisted on him going to the hospital, it was meaningless for him to refuse.

It's just... It's good to be rich, and you can spend so much on a passer-by, just because of a little worry.

Zhong Xi looked out the window, thinking of his mother's medical expenses and his own tuition fees, his expression was blank.

Lin Zhe drove to the hospital in a hurry, but didn't notice the boy's expression.

He hurriedly arrived at the nearest hospital, took the other party to register for photo inspection, etc., and finally confirmed that the other party was really fine under the nod of the doctor, and it was just a simple scratch, so he let go of his uneasy mood.

"This child is malnourished and has a slight heart problem. Although it is not serious for the time being, it is not good if it drags on for a long time. He needs to be treated as soon as possible for a minor operation. I will prescribe some medicine for him first. The operation cost is relatively high. I don't want to do it." It doesn't matter, you can take medicine for a long time, you can think about it for yourself..."

The doctor didn't know that they were just strangers. Seeing Lin Zhe's concerned and tense attitude, he thought they were relatives, so he mentioned the boy's other test results.

The boy has a mild heart problem and needs a minor operation.

heard.

The boy raised his head and stood there for a few seconds, then quickly lowered his head again. He couldn't even afford his mother's medical and tuition fees, so where did he get the money for the surgery.

Lin Zhe had only met the other party once, and did not know the other party's family background, but he was still very nervous when he heard that the other party was still sick and needed surgery. He asked the doctor for a physical examination report, and took the medicine before taking him out of the hospital.

"Where do you live? I'll take you back home. Remember to take this medicine on time. Go back and show your health report to your parents. Although the doctor said that you just have a small heart problem, it doesn't matter if you don't have an operation, but it's better to listen to the doctor's words." good……"

After getting into the car, Lin Zhe gave Zhong Xi the medicine and the report, while exhorting him.

He usually doesn't like to talk to people, but this boy is very pleasing to him, and he bumped into someone again, so he was a little more patient.

The boy looked like a fresh graduate from high school at most, and he didn't have independent financial ability yet, so his parents had to worry about these things.

The hospital's examination was very slow, and it was already dark after they had waited so long. They took the boy to a nearby restaurant for a casual meal, and then prepared to drive him home.

"Thank you, just get off at the intersection of Yejing Park."

Zhong Xi glanced at him again, reported the drop-off address, and continued to remain silent while holding the medicine and inspection report in his hand.

The boy didn't want to talk too much. Lin Zhe was not a talkative person at first. After a few awkward conversations, he could only drive in silence and earnestly. Then, occasionally seeing the other side's face from the corner of his eye, he couldn't help but praise the boy for his good looks. very nice.

With a palm-sized face, fair skin, and delicate facial features, in the world of his time, he must have been a favorite of many men.

But in this world, there is no little brother, no matter how handsome he is, he is still a boy.

Lin Zhe has thought a lot in the past ten days since he came to the modern age.

Especially Zhang Yinzhu, who has been obsessed with him for many years, he feels that he is not as deeply in love as he imagined. The reason why he can't let go of her is because she is his former fiancée. resentment and resentment.

As the saying goes, what you can't get is the best, so he is always persistent and can't let go.

But now that he calms down and thinks about it carefully, after leaving that world, what he misses and misses the most is his father and Brother Yu. He feels guilty for not fulfilling his filial piety, and for not cherishing Brother Yu well before.

And Zhang Yinzhu...maybe it's not as good as he thought at all. How could a truly kind person keep talking bad things about his cousin behind his back, and even lead him to want to sell Brother Yu and elope, such a beast.

Lin Zhe is not a fool. He was lost in the game before, but now that he calms down and thinks about it from another angle, all kinds of loopholes and signs are obvious.

He didn't have a clear goal for his future life, but he didn't know if he was thinking too much about his relationship. He would look at those kind of handsome and well-behaved teenagers now.

For example, the unlucky boy in front of him who was bumped into by him is very similar to Zhang Yu in terms of body shape and temperament. Thinking of his guilt towards Zhang Yu, he couldn't help but be more patient and concerned about this similar boy.

"Do you like boys?"

Zhong Xi, who was silent, suddenly raised his head and spoke. Lin Zhe's eyes were not too dark, he could feel that the other party kept looking at him.

Lin Zhe's face turned red when he was caught peeking at him, and when he heard the other party's straightforward question, he turned the steering wheel again and drove the car directly to the lawn of the small park next door.

"I'm sorry..."

Lin Zhe blushed, as he was influenced by Zhihu Zheye's ethics all day long, he was actually very reserved and blank in terms of emotions.

Even if he met Zhang Yinzhu before, he never even held hands with him, walking a meter apart, and never spoke so directly. Zhong Xi's straightforward question made him a little at a loss.

The sage said don’t look at indecent words, it’s really rude for him to peek at people, Ke Keke didn’t have bad intentions, he just thought this boy was good-looking, his temperament and figure were very similar to Brother Yu, so he couldn’t help but take a second look.

Such a jerky and bewildered Xiaobai's performance is very different from his external image of a successful person.

Zhong Xi froze for a moment, but didn't think much, looked at Lin Zhe's attire again, opened his eyes and continued to ask,

"Sir, are you rich? To you, 10 yuan should be the price of a set of clothes, right?"

Lin Zhe didn't know what he meant by asking this, but he nodded obediently because he was caught peeping at someone.

"...Bad, almost."

In fact, he doesn't have much specific concept of modern money, but 10 yuan doesn't seem to be much. He remembers that any watch in the original body starts at least a few hundred thousand. Decorate the facade.

But what does the boy ask this for?

Before Lin Zhe could figure it out, the boy looked at the remote place where he was now, and there was no one around. After hesitating for a few seconds, he resolutely crawled over and sat on him ambiguously.

"Sir, you like boys, right? I'm clean, and it's the first time. If you think I can watch, buy me. I need 10 yuan. I can accompany you in whatever you want, and I won't rely on you to take responsibility." .”

Zhong Xi sat on Lin Zhe and stared into Lin Zhe's eyes. He knew how unbearable and undignified he was now.

But he needs money, really needs money.

After finishing speaking, Zhong Xi's heart skipped a beat, and he stepped back and knelt down to lean towards the man's place.

"..."

Lin Zhe's eyes widened. Looking at the boy who buried his head in front of him, his face flushed again. Years of etiquette and three views were severely challenged, and his voice was stuck in his throat, unable to speak a word.

His stiff mind was blank as he watched the boy move by himself, watched the boy take off his clothes and come up, physiological tears flowed from the corners of the other's eyes because of the pain, and his delicate face was full of indescribable temptation.
