Love of Daiyu in the Red Chamber

Finally when the day of the exam came, Zhong Chu took the pen, ink and inkstone that Zhong's mother had prepared for him, and went to the exam alone.

Father Zhong offered to send him off, but he refused.Said that when the exam was over, his parents were going to pick him up.

Zhong's father and Zhong's mother also knew that he was a reliable person, and following him might distract him, so they didn't insist.

When they came to the examination room, Tang Mou, Li Yizhi and others were already waiting in line to check in.

Zhong Chu came late and was at the end of the line.

"It's Prince Beijing!" The crowd surged, and everyone looked in the direction pointed by the speaker.

King Beijing was wearing a python robe, and beside him was an eleven or twelve-year-old boy with pure red teeth and white teeth, who must be the young prince of Beijing who will befriend Baoyu in the future.

After all, Baoyu said that women are made of water and men are made of mud. If it weren't for the watery and flower-like appearance, how could they fall into Baoyu's eyes!

Just like Zhong Chu's dark appearance, he met Baoyu a few times, the first time he walked in fright, and the second time he turned his head and walked away!

Just as he was thinking about it, a person who had a cheat sheet stuck to the sole of his shoe was caught and fainted, and the yamen servant in charge of the exam safety pulled him out.

A few people with slightly poorer psychological qualities were pale, and it was their turn that they trembled in fright.

"Zhong Xiaoer, take the test well, and I will rely on you from now on." Chen Er squeezed to Zhong Chu's side at some point, followed by Tang Mou and the others.

"You too, I hope we can all go to the Golden Luan Hall." Zhong Chu was moved by several friends who followed him in line again. They are all people who value love and righteousness, and it is his blessing to have such friends.

The team walked quickly, and soon arrived at Zhong Chu and the others.

Zhong Chu didn't do anything wrong and was not afraid of being checked by others. When it was his turn, he obediently followed the instructions of the officials in charge of the inspection, and soon after the inspection, he entered the examination room and found his place.

The exact same cubicle, just a table, a long wooden board, and a few candles.

It looks okay, at least you can lie on it and rest at night.

Putting the smashed steamed buns away, and taking out the small oven, Zhong Chu heated up a pot of hot water.Fortunately, Mrs. Zhong had prepared everything for him. The weather was cold, and he didn't drink hot water and didn't wear much. It might be cold at night!

When the examiner handed out the paper this time, Zhong Chu read it from beginning to end as usual.What is the second sentence of the third line on page 20 of No. 11 of the Four Books "The Doctrine of the Mean", the original text and translation of "Advanced No. [-]" in "The Analects of Confucius", "Book of Songs" and "Spring and Autumn" in the Five Classics, occasionally mixed with some other Problem trap.

Seeing the final strategy, Zhong Chu was stunned for a moment, and then looked indifferent.

Following the usual practice, Zhong Chu first transcribes on the manuscript paper, and then transcribes to the examination paper after checking that there are no errors or taboos.When I was hungry, I ate broken steamed buns with hot water, and when I was sleepy, I curled up on a wooden board to sleep.

Chen Er was envious of Zhong Chu's small stove. Because he had to stay for nine days, he brought white flour steamed buns and steamed buns, which became hard when it was cold.With cold water and hard steamed buns, Chen Er has never been so embarrassed before!

Tang Mou was not having a good time either, he was obsessed with cleanliness, and the cubicle smelled of all kinds of feces and urine, and he retched and couldn't vomit, let alone eat.Afraid that I would not be able to hold on for nine days, I could only desperately water my confidant.I was so hungry that I couldn't bear it, so I barely ate two bites of cold broken snacks.

Fortunately, the housekeeper of the Tang family asked people to make the dessert sweeter, so it was not so difficult to swallow.

As for Zhao Xiaomian, Li Yizhi has taken care of everything for him.The cloud silk clothes are warm in winter and cool in summer, and the water is hot on the small stove. When you are hungry, put the salty steamed buns into the water, and the day will pass.

Zhao Xiaomian hardly suffered anything, but the surrounding environment made him uncomfortable, but other things were fine.

After nine days of three exams, I ate, drank and slacked in this small partition, and I could smell my body smelling rotten!

Following the invigilator's voice, "It's time, stop writing", Zhong Chu waited patiently for the invigilator who collected the papers to take them away, signaling him to leave before relaxing!

When they got outside, they met each other.

Tang Mou obviously lost a lot of weight, and Chen Er looked haggard with his unshaven beard.Zhao Xiaomian is in good condition, but feels a little tired.Li Yizhi practiced martial arts since he was a child, and this matter would not affect him at all. After making sure that Zhao Xiaomian was fine, he dragged Zhao Xiaomian to say goodbye to the three of them, and boarded his carriage.

As for Zhong Chu, except that he didn't take a shower, eat and sleep well, he looked the same.

Li Xiuhe was accompanied by two servant girls and a woman, and when she saw Chen Eryi coming out, she hurried over with small steps.

"Xianggong!" He stopped two steps away reservedly and greeted Zhong Chu Tang Mou.

"Second Brother Zhong, Third Master Tang."

"Xiao Biesheng is newly married, we won't delay you anymore, hurry up and go back with your younger siblings." Zhong Chu saw that Li Xiuhe was worried about Chen Er, and slapped him teasingly.

Chen Er scratched his head, giggled, with a simple and honest look.

He said apologetically, "Brothers will meet again some other day, so I will take my leave first."

Only Tang Mou, Zhong Chu and Zhong were left at this meeting. The Zhong family's carriage stopped not far away, Zhong's father and Zhong's mother only watched from a distance, although they were anxious, they didn't come up to disturb their son and friends.

Zhong Chu looked at Tang Moudong's face flushed, and pulled him into the carriage.

Father Zhong let him hold the small heater that he had prepared long ago, put a thick coat on him, and poured him a bowl of ginger soup that had been simmering.

Tang Mou came back to his senses after a while, it was really too cold, he couldn't eat or sleep well, if it wasn't for the thought of the exam, he would have passed out long ago.

Now that his body was warm, he felt drowsy, and soon fell asleep leaning against Zhong Chu.

"I already sent people to Tang's house and said that Ah Mou came to our house first today, this child will suffer, look thin." Zhong's mother felt a little distressed, although Tang Mou was not his son, he often went to their house, and his relationship with Zhong Chu was not good. Well, about the same as her half son.

Zhong Chu's health was better than other children since he was a child, although they were worried, they were not particularly worried.This will see Tang Mou vs Zhong Chu, and the two can't help but breathe a sigh of relief.If Zhong Chu is like this, they would rather he not take the exam, and they can afford to be an idler for a lifetime.

"Yu'er sent Xueque to ask early today, and she is also worried about you."

"After I rest for a few days, I will go talk to her in person."

Tang Mou was really exhausted, and he still didn't wake up when he arrived at Zhong's house.

When they returned to Zhong's house, Zhong Chu first helped his parents get out of the car, and then easily carried Princess Tang Mou to his yard.

The servants had prepared hot water a long time ago, Zhong Chu wiped Tang Mou's body and changed into clean clothes before taking a serious bath himself.

After drinking the mutton soup that Zhong's mother had boiled for three hours, he was so sleepy that he climbed into bed and closed his eyes to sleep.

The two have a good relationship and often sleep together.

Tang Mou was sleeping soundly, and suddenly felt the warmth of a huge stove beside him, and he clung to it like an octopus.

Zhong Chu was so sleepy that he didn't bother to pay attention, and let him hug him.

Here Li Yizhi brought Zhao Xiaomian back home, and after the two of them took a hot bath together, he began to be dishonest.Zhao Xiaomian couldn't even open his eyes and waved and pushed him casually, but he didn't push, so he could only bully him.
