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

The Jia family left after lunch.

Lin Ze didn't stay with the Lin family too much, and took Zhang Yu back to his home after lunch to summarize today's blind date.

Although Lin Ze actually didn't have any brother-sister feelings for Lin Xiaolian, she was still the original owner's sister anyway.

And the little girl is quite interesting, she is many times better than Lin Jianwen, and he, who has no grievances or enmities, can't watch a teenage girl jump into a fire pit and die without saving him, so cold-blooded and ruthless.

Lin Ze is a person who pursues perfection and responsibility, so he has made a lot of preparations for today's meeting.

He made an appointment with Zhang Yu early last night. He would come to ask, Zhang Yu would take notes, and afterward, he would analyze and find the problem slowly.

This is a common method he used in his previous work. After all, many times people's heads will turn faster after the event, or there is such a thing as an afterthought.

Zhang Yu has a good memory. Although all the records are made with symbols such as circles, crosses, crosses, and hooks, but with memory, the corresponding symbols can also restore every link.

On the afternoon of the Mid-Autumn Festival, the couple sat in the yard, gnawed crabs, and analyzed the situation of seeing each other today.

"Sir, when the Jia family in this place said the dowry, their expression was a bit wrong. I feel like some rich masters in the town look at beggars..."

"Well, it should be arrogant and disdainful."

"Here, my husband, you didn't agree to the marriage. When you said you wanted to ask a question, I saw Mrs. Jia's face was a little unhappy, and Jia Bo's face became stiff."

"I saw you too."

Not to mention, if you don't observe, you really don't know. Once you observe, the Jia family is indeed full of doubts.

Facial expressions are the most difficult to grasp. Unless specially trained professionals, ordinary people can easily reveal their inner emotions from their faces.

No matter how well the Jia family concealed it, they couldn't escape the eyes of Zhang Yu, who had been watching intently from the beginning to the end.

"Also, when you said, Mr. Jia, that you were going to postpone the wedding until next year, the expressions of the Jia family and his wife seemed to have encountered something bad. The changes were very obvious. It was different from the reaction of ordinary people who would be surprised and frown when they heard it. ..."

"Even if you were a husband at the time, you said that you would prepare more dowry for the younger sister. The expressions of the Jia family and his wife were not relaxed. This shows that they are very anxious to complete the marriage before the Chinese New Year. I think there is a problem with this, and they are too anxious."

"But at the end, my husband, you said that you would prepare yellow rosewood furniture and 50 taels of silver for my younger sister. The faces of the Jia family were obviously much happier during the dowry. I think the Jia family really doesn't care about money as they seem on the surface..."

Zhang Yu carefully recalled today's observation,

"And the son of the Jia family, I think the biggest problem is that although he looks honest and honest, he keeps looking at the younger sister and seems to like the appearance of the younger sister, but I don't think he really likes the younger sister. I'm so disturbed that my mind is unsteady...Master, I think this Jia family must be investigated carefully."

As a person who has been here, Zhang Yu knows better than Lin Xiaolian who is not married whether he really likes the look in his eyes.

"Not only do we have to do a thorough investigation, but we also have to do a deep investigation. There is a big problem with the Jia family. It really is not a good thing to be involved with Chen Shuju. This woman even dared to marry her daughter without knowing the details. .”

After careful analysis, Lin Ze's expression was cold, and he really opened his eyes to this woman, Chen Shuju.

If it wasn't for Lin Sangui, if it wasn't for Lin Xiaolian's understanding, he wouldn't bother to meddle in these nosy matters.

Compared with Lin Ze, who is a native of Zhang Yu, he understands the perverted degree of patriarchy in this era, and thinks a little more.

"Sister, I think Lin Jianwen should also check it out. The Chen family favors sons over daughters. The reason for her doing everything is almost for her son. Although I didn't hear any rumors about Lin Jianwen's purchase of exam questions, I did it by the way. Good check."

"Okay, let's check Lin Jianwen again by the way. This time the matter has nothing to do with them. If it has anything to do with them, don't blame me for being too cruel."

The corners of Lin Ze's mouth turned slightly cold, "I've been pretending to be a gentle scholar for a long time, I almost forgot that I'm a beast..."

This time he was really angry. People who are cruel to others are not the most hateful, but those who attack close relatives are the most hateful.

Letting Chen Shuju go several times was just for Lin Sangui's face, considering that Father Lin couldn't stand the stimulation at a very old age, and this woman was just a pawn.

Lin Sangui is an honest person who values ​​affection. Although he doesn't like Chen Shuju, and he was forced to marry her, but he is already married and has a child. He still treats Chen Shuju as his wife.

Therefore, because of Father Lin, Lin Ze has never been easy to deal with cruelty, otherwise it would actually be Father Lin who was hurt the most.

But this time, if it is found out that the matter is related to Chen Shuju's mother and son, he will never be merciful again. Keeping these two things is a disaster. A long-term pain is worse than a short-term pain. It will be easier for everyone to kill them while taking this opportunity.

Lin Ze didn't tell others about his doubts about the Jia family, and the investigation was conducted secretly.

He doesn't have much influence in the town, but people like Li Guangcai and Guo Yuanwai who have lived in the town for several generations have a bit of face and goofy people they know.

As a last resort, Lin Ze could only brazenly ask these two guys to check it out. He had to owe this debt of favor even if he didn't want to.

When the two old guys heard the words, they happily patted their chests and agreed, the more Lin Ze asked them to do, the smoother their son's studies would be in the future.

The predecessors planted trees, and the descendants took advantage of the shade. This is what they said.

Of course, this investigation is easy to say, but it is very difficult in practice. It is not like a few days in a TV drama. Not easy.

The Jia family said before that their family moved from Shepherd County on the border, but it took several months to go back and forth to the border, and most people didn't have the time and energy to travel so far to confirm.

If the Jia family is really a liar, these words can't be used as a reference, but they can't go to the border for the time being, but they can still check in the surrounding counties.

In ancient times, the way to travel far was necessary. Since the Jia family can settle in Nanyang Town, there must be some traces of the previous details in the Yamen.

As long as you know a little information, and then send someone to visit the places where the Jia family stayed, you can know what the Jia family was like in the past.

If there is no problem, everyone will be happy; if there is no concealment, it will prove Lin Ze's conjecture.

In order to prevent the Jia family boy from giving Lin Xiaolian some uncooked and cooked rice during this period of time, making the marriage a firm deal, Lin Ze spent a lot of time convincing Father Lin and Lin Xiaolian not to be alone with the Jia family boy during this period of time. Meet.

Although Lin Xiaolian developed a love for the youngest daughter of the Jia family, but firstly, the time was short, and secondly, Lin Ze had established too much prestige when he first crossed.

So although I regretted Lin Ze's instructions, my eldest brother was older and more experienced than him, and it was not in accordance with the rules for a girl to meet a man before marriage, so I agreed to Lin Ze's instructions after thinking about it.

The Jia family didn't know whether it was too self-confident or they were just thinking too much. After the blind date, the Jia family didn't move much. Instead, it seemed like they were really married. They often visited the village and gave some gifts to show their concern. Everyone who saw it said that the in-laws really got married.

It is not easy for Lin Ze to stop this kind of upright visit, so he can only let Father Lin watch Lin Xiaolian, and it is better not to get along with others alone.

The people Li Guangcai and Guo Yuanwai helped find did not find out any problems at first. They visited several surrounding counties where the Jia family had stayed, and the information and people they knew had the same reputation for the Jia family as Nanyang Town.

This almost made Lin Ze wonder if he really thought too much, maybe the Jia family is indeed a good family.

However, during the previous blind date, the Jia family revealed so many suspicious small flaws, Lin Ze still couldn't rest assured, so he asked people to continue to go far away to expand the scope of investigation.

Anyway, Jia's family has been dragged down now, so don't worry for now, it's more reassuring to check more.

Don't be afraid of ten thousand, just in case, just spend more money and spend more than ten days...

As a result, there was no rush, and someone took care of the investigation, so Lin Zebian waited patiently.

Now that the reconstruction and layout of the private school here have been completed, the private school admissions examination after the Mid-Autumn Festival that I told you before has to be put on the schedule immediately.

Not only because of the promise to the master in the town, but also because his family spends money like water, so don't rush to open a private school to collect some tuition fees, and the family's purse is always tight.

It took a day to find someone to beat the gongs and drums, and first spread the news that "Zeyu Private School" would recruit students in the town and the surrounding villages of Nanyang Town.

Then it took a day to register the students who wanted to enter the private school. After sorting out the test list, Lin Ze chose a good day to communicate with the yamen, and surrounded the downtown area of ​​Nanyang Town as the test room.

That's right, his entrance exam is going to be taken outside in the open air this time.

The reason for this is not only to make a publicity advertisement for the private school anytime and anywhere, but also to choose students who are courageous and tenacious.

There is a very important test factor in the imperial examination, and that is a person's mentality.

And an exam in this environment can best test a person's courage and character. If you don't even have the courage to be surrounded by people, what else can you talk about.

After all, Lin Ze's private school is essentially a crash course at present, and every student who enters has given a promise to ensure that the children's exams will pass.

Although he has the confidence in teaching, he can't stop some people from being rotten wood, so for the sake of his family's future brand, he naturally has to choose a few students.

In other words, a student who wants to enter his private school must not only have money, but also be a promising young man.

As for the poor students who are exempted from tuition fees, they are promoted based on their ability. Without absolute learning talent, they will not be able to enter his private school at all.

He has limited abilities, so he can only open such a small private school. This is not compulsory education, and it is even more impossible for him to do business that loses money and deceives himself.

Therefore, picking students is a must in Lin Ze's view.

This may not be fair to other children with ordinary aptitude, but this is the cruel phenomenon of this era, and he has no ability to save the world so far.

Of course, if he has the ability in the future, Lin Ze is still willing to do something to change the world around him.

Don't say it's so great, he is actually very selfish, he just wants to give his and Ah Yu's children a good growth environment in the future.

Husband and wife are like this, that's all.
