Farming in another world to make a fortune

Compared with the three rounds of the Tongsheng Examination, the Rural Examination is more difficult and takes longer.

Since the academy was on vacation, Yu Zhou and his party began to prepare for the exam, went to bed early and woke up early, insisted on exercising, even reading books was a combination of work and rest.

There are three township examinations, each three days and two nights, and the first entrance time is on the ninth day of August.

On the day of the eighth day of the eighth day, a group of people gathered at He Yunqi's house for lunch, and chatted for a while about things unrelated to the exam, and then agreed to go to the Gongyuan together tomorrow morning, and then went back to their respective homes, preparing for an early rest, and recharging their energy. Good for the next exam.

Back at his home, Yu Wenliang greeted him, and went straight back to his room.

Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan took Chenchen to play in the yard. It happened to be the time when the peaches were ripe, and the pink peaches fell all over the tree.

Chenchen inherited Yu Zhou's preference and also likes to eat peaches, but because he is young and has a weak stomach, neither Yu Zhou nor Jinchuan dare to let him eat too much. A quarter of a peach is given to Chenchen by both of them. set daily standards.

I didn't have time to eat this morning, so now when Chenchen saw Tao Zi, she remembered it, pulled Yu Zhou's sleeves and shouted, "Father, Tao Ji!"

Yu Zhou didn't know whether to laugh or cry, so he chose a peach that was already ripe, held Chenchen to the same height as the peach, and then pointed to the peach and asked, "Eat this?"

"En!" Chenchen nodded her head heavily.

Yu Zhou plucked the peaches, washed them with water in a bucket by the well, and peeled off the skin with a knife. Then he gave a quarter of a peach to Chenchen, who let Chenchen eat it by herself.

He also cut the rest into pieces, and when he was about to put it into his mouth, Jin Chuan stopped him, "Husband can't eat it today either."

Yu Zhou paused, puzzled and asked, "Why?"

"Peaches are bad for the stomach."

Yu Zhou had no choice but to say, "If you eat more peaches, you will have a bad stomach." Having said that, he still put the remaining petals back on the plate as he said.

The two were talking, when the door of the east chamber opened with a 'squeak', Yu Wenliang poked his head out from behind the door, pointed to the small flower garden in the middle of the yard where Jinchuan planted vegetables and asked: "Brother Xiaozhou, do you want Water the vegetables, can you?"

Yu Zhou and Jin Chuan exchanged glances, both of them held back their laughter at the same time, and nodded seriously, "Yes."

Yu Wenliang exhaled lightly, as if afraid of Yu Zhou's sudden repentance, he quickly ran to the well, took a bucket of water, and watered the vegetables planted by Jinchuan one by one.

After Chenchen saw it, she took the peach petal and ran over with her short legs to join in the fun while nibbling on it.

When Yu Wenliang poured the scallions, he was very happy and said: "Scallions!"

Yu Wenliang seemed to be infected by Chenchen's emotions, his stiff back relaxed a lot, even the movement of watering became more natural, and he replied with a smile: "Yes, this is Cong Cong."

When it was time to pour the next one, he told Chenchen what it was in a soft voice. Chenchen didn't learn it once, but he patiently taught it tirelessly.

Yu Zhou sat at the door and looked at it for a while, then looked back at Jin Chuan and said, "Our Chenchen is really a baby."

"Wen Liang is young, so it's normal to be nervous," Jin Chuan said with a smile, "When the water runs out, let him take Chen Chen with him."

The two thought that Yu Wenliang's nervous appearance was the limit, but they had just finished eating, and Yu Wenliang was still chasing Chenchen to feed, when there was another knock on Yu Zhou's door.

Lin Yue went to open the door and came back soon, whispering to Yu Zhou's ear with a strange expression, "Young Master Tao is outside, and I would like to invite you out to talk."

Yu Zhou didn't quite understand Tao Jiang's actions, but he didn't doubt him, so he stood up and said to Jin Chuan, "I'll go out for a while."

As soon as he reached the door, he saw Tao Jiang pacing back and forth in the alley like an ant on a hot pot.

Yu Zhou thought of something, felt unbelievable, and asked slowly, "What are you doing?"

"I'm nervous!" Tao Jiang said with a sad face.

"Why are you pacing in the alley when you're nervous," Yu Zhou asked, "Isn't it okay to go into the courtyard and talk?"

Tao Jiang scratched his head, "Aren't you afraid of affecting Wen Liang?"

"Then you called me out, aren't you afraid of affecting me?" Yu Zhou blurted out.

Tao Jiang asked back: "Will you be affected?"

Yu Zhou thought about it for a while. For him, this provincial examination is really the best way to pass the exam. If he fails to pass the exam, it will have no effect. After all, his goal in life is not to be an official, so he slowly shook his head, "No meeting."

"It's not worth it."

Yu Zhou felt that it would be endless until midnight, so he said, "Tell me, what are you nervous about? Where is Mr. Tao, who has always boasted of his literary talents?"

Tao Jiang lowered his eyes and said seriously: "The exam will take nine days in total. I am too nervous about things. I am afraid that I will not be able to perform at a normal level due to my mistakes, and I am also afraid that the seat will be in a bad place, even near the dung bucket, or the weather. It suddenly turned cold, and I caught a cold in the Gongyuan..."

He rambled on a lot, even though they were all issues that normal candidates would worry about, but Yu Zhou couldn't help but interrupted with a frown: "Get to the point!"

Sure enough, Tao Jiang shut up, turned his head away from Yu Zhou, and said a little coyly, "My marriage with Asu is scheduled for September, and I want to be selected so that he can..."

Before he finished speaking, out of the corner of his eye, he saw Yu Zhou trying to hold back his smile, so he swallowed the rest of the words.

Yu Zhou paused for a moment, then said: "Let me ask you, if you don't win the exam this time, is Mr. Qi going to regret the marriage?"

"Of course not!" Tao Jiang replied firmly.

"Then what are you worried about?"

Tao Jiang would cry: "But I'm just worried!"

Seeing him like this, Yu Zhou thought of Yu Wenliang who was relieved by Chenchen in the room, and began to seriously think about whether he should dedicate his little angel again.

But before he could figure out why, he was interrupted by the sound of a carriage coming from the depths of the alley.

Tao Jiang obviously heard it too, and the two turned their heads to look at the past together.

First, the sound of the wheels rolling over the bluestone slab was getting closer, and then the lantern hanging in front of the carriage cast a dim light.

After the lights appeared, the people driving the carriage soon appeared in the sight of the two of them.

Seeing a familiar person, Tao Jiang asked with surprise mixed with surprise: "Why are you here?"

After he asked, the curtain of the carriage was raised immediately, Qisu bent over and stretched out half of her body, with a faint smile on her lips and said: "I'll come and see you."

He probably came here just after he finished treating patients in the medical clinic. Even though he was still so far away, Yu Zhou could smell the smell of Chinese medicine when he raised the car curtain.

Tao Jiang greeted him with burning eyes, and said with a smile, "It's so late, why don't you go back to rest earlier."

Yu Zhou knew that he was definitely not needed here, so he quietly retreated to his home and closed the door.

Even if some of their friends were nervous, they all found their own way to adjust, so when they met at the gate of the Gongyuan the next morning, everyone was in high spirits.

The province where Yu Zhou and the others were located had a relatively large population in Dayan Kingdom, but it wasn't too small either. The queue started at [-] o'clock, and the candidates entered the venue at Chen o'clock. It was almost noon, and all the talents finally entered the venue.

Yu Zhou found his own dormitory according to the seat number. Looking at the small room that was three feet wide, four feet deep, and barely six feet high, he couldn't help sighing.

This is where he will be for the next nine days.

After putting away the three candles that were allotted, Yu Zhou took off his coat and folded it in the corner before he started to answer the questions.In August, when the sun shines at noon, it is still a bit hot.

Fortunately, although his position is not considered a ventilated place in the middle, he will not be exposed to the sun when the sun slant to the west.

Yu Zhou just stayed in the dormitory for three full days and two nights, during which time he was sleeping at night and answering questions, and what he ate was the dry food and cold boiled water he brought in.

Sleeping is even more uncomfortable, so I put down the board that is used as a table top, and make it flush with the board on which I am sitting, so that I can barely curl up and lie down.

Yu Zhou was already in good physical condition. When he went out at night three days later, he felt listless and unable to lift up his energy. His body seemed to be frozen because he couldn't stretch out.

However, with the previous experience, when they left the gate of the Gongyuan, they ran in a small circle next to their own carriages, ignoring the eyes of the onlookers, and did a set of radio gymnastics before going back to their respective homes.

This time Jin Chuan didn't come to pick him up at the entrance of the Gong Yuan, he just waited at the door with Chen Chen, and when he saw the carriage came back, he hurriedly asked Yu Zhou and Yu Wenliang to wash and eat.

When lying on the bed at night, Jin Chuan used the ointment Qisu sent and massaged Yu Zhou's body for a long time.

Being massaged by the hands covered with warm ointment, Yu Zhou felt that the aches and pains all over his body were relieved a lot, and drowsiness also began to strike, so he pulled himself together and asked, "Did the ointment be given to Wen Liang?"

"Yes," Jin Chuan continued to move his hands, "Lin Yue is pressing him."

"That's good," Yu Zhou felt relieved, before he fell into a dream, he said in a daze, "I must win the exam this time."

Although what he said was vague, Jin Chuan confirmed that he heard it right, and asked after a moment of hesitation, "Why did my husband suddenly say that?"

Yu Zhou babbled: "Because I really don't want to go through the experience of having to stay in the dormitory for nine days."

After speaking, he fell asleep directly, but in an instant, he also started snoring.

Jin Chuan pressed and rubbed for a while, and then pulled the quilt back for him in distress.

The two have been married for so many years, and Jin Chuan has already gained experience. If his husband snores a little while sleeping, it proves that he is really exhausted to the extreme.

As a result, when I waited for the next two exams, I realized that the first three days were not the most tiring. It didn't mean that the fatigue accumulated later, but that there was a sudden heavy rain on the first night of the third exam.

The temperature plummeted, and it was okay for Yu Zhou's house to be in the middle, and the wind couldn't blow it over, so it was miserable for the two ends, not to mention the cold wind, which even blew the rain into the house.

Yu Zhou wrapped his clothes tightly, and lit the charcoal fire in the lodge, and he didn't get sick from the cold that night.

At the same time, I was grateful, if it wasn't for the aunt who sent someone over to tell them when they came home after the second exam, saying that an old man at home said that it might rain in the next few days and asked them to wear more clothes to come in, he would definitely go with them. The same as the previous two games, wearing thin clothes.

However, although he didn't get sick that night, he didn't rest well, and the exams in the next two days were somewhat affected.

It was only when he finished the examination of the Tribute Academy that he realized that it was good enough for him to be affected a little. Many candidates even fell ill in the dormitory and were helped out of the Tribute Academy.
