Farming in another world to make a fortune

When entering the arena, there are 50 people in each row. When the county magistrate calls their names, the examinees will enter the arena with their test baskets.

Among the three of Yu Zhou, Yu Wenliang was the first to enter the arena. He queued up in front of Yu Zhou and He Yunqi. When his name was called, he habitually turned his head to look at Yu Zhou. He nodded, and Yu Wenliang entered the examination room carrying the examination basket.

After Yu Wenliang went in, it was He Yunqi's turn.

Yu Zhou was the last one to enter. When he entered, there were not many people left in the yard.

But the atmosphere was still tense and stagnant. Except for the county magistrate's name-calling, no one else spoke, and even the necessary actions were tried not to make any noise.

In this atmosphere, Yu Zhou subconsciously lowered his footsteps.

After crossing the high dragon gate, the scenery of the inner courtyard can be seen at a glance.

Several rows of pasted paper lamps were densely erected in the courtyard, illuminating the huge inner courtyard as if it were daytime, so as to facilitate the search of candidates.

Yu Zhou walked up to Souzi who was waiting, and handed the test basket to the other party to check one by one, then untied the belt of his coat as he said, and let Souzi search up and down.

After the inspection was completed, he stood among the waiting candidates and waited for everyone to enter before saluting to the examiner together.

At this time, the guarantor scholars have also entered the arena from the other side. Some officials stand at the entrance of the central hall to sing guarantors, that is, the examinees whose names are called enter the lobby to receive the papers. After the guarantor scholars confirm that the person is correct, they go Recognize this life as your own.

Even if Yu Zhou was in the college entrance examination before crossing, he had never experienced such a complicated pre-examination examination.

By the time he found the seat number according to the examination paper and sat down, the east side was already pale.

According to the habit of taking exams for more than ten years, Yu Zhou first filled in the name and other information before starting to check the questions.

The first day of the exam was the main one, and only two of the Four Books and one poem were tested. The topics were relatively simple, and it was said that the admission was relatively loose, and those who were generally fluent in writing were preferred.

But even so, Yu Zhou is still ready and serious.

It took a whole day to answer the questions. After Yu Zhou read the questions, he did not immediately answer on the test paper. Instead, he took out the plain paper for drafting and wrote the answers on the draft paper. Go up the paper.

When answering the questions seriously, time always flies by quickly. When Yu Zhou came back to his senses, the sun was already slanting to the west. He ate something in a hurry, rested for a while, and checked the things written on the draft twice. Only carefully transcribed it on the examination paper.

After transcribing, it was still early, so Yu Zhou was in a daze without thinking, and didn't care about the exam papers he had already answered.Because after the imperial examination is written, even if you want to change it, you can't cross it out and rewrite it, so there is only one exam paper.It is better not to check, so as not to find imperfections but affect the mood of the subsequent exams.

When the sky was getting dark, the examinees began to hand in the papers. Because there were no candles in the examination room, even if some people had not finished answering, they could not continue.

Yu Zhou was relatively late in the row when he entered the arena, and he was in the first batch when he was discharged.

After he went out, he first found Xiao Zhu who was waiting outside driving a carriage.

When Xiao Zhu saw him, he quickly opened the curtain of the carriage and said, "Young Master Yu, hurry up and rest in the carriage. There are hot tea and snacks inside, and the cloak that your husband prepared for you is also inside."

Yu Zhou waved his hand and said, "I'll just come by myself, you watch the door outside, and don't let your young master and Wen Liang find a place later."

"Okay." Xiaozhu nodded in response, turned around and stood in front of the carriage, and continued to look in on tiptoe.

As soon as Yu Zhou sat down, he found his cloak and wrapped it up.

Sitting in the examination room for a whole day, unable to stand up and walk around, and wearing only a few unlined clothes, even he has cold hands and feet at the moment.

Wrapped in a cloak, he poured another cup of hot tea and drank it, and Yu Zhou finally felt his body warm up.

Only then did he smell that there seemed to be a faint, clear fragrance in the carriage.It wasn't obvious, but it made him feel a lot more relaxed after being tense all day.

Yu Zhou was about to carefully identify where the fragrance was coming from, when he heard Xiao Zhu shouting from outside the carriage: "Master, we are here."

Among the three people they referred to, only He Yunqi had the worst physical fitness. When Yu Zhou heard that he had come out of the examination room, he quickly opened the curtain to see how he was doing.

It's okay, it just looks a little tired.

Yu Zhou waited for him to walk a few steps away from the carriage, then picked up the big cloak that He Yunqi wore in the morning and threw it down to Xiao Zhu.

After Xiaozhu received it, he hurried up to put it on He Yunqi.

Yu Zhou also poured hot tea to warm his hands as soon as He Yunqi came up.

He Yunqi watched the reaction of the two of them, tightened the cloak on his body, and said with a smile: "I'm just a little tired, you don't need to be so nervous."

"It's not nervous," Yu Zhou said with a smile, "I don't want to be stupid, I just put on the cloak as soon as I came out."

After speaking, he pointed to the teacup on the small table, "I've already had a cup of hot tea."

He Yunqi didn't say anything, stretched his posture, climbed into the carriage, and sat down opposite Yu Zhou.

Because he had been sitting in the examination room for a whole day, he saw that Yu Zhou was almost paralyzed on the seat in a half-lying position, and it was rare for him to relax his sitting position, leaning his upper body against the wall of the carriage and stretching out his long legs. Leave it alone.

Yu Wenliang ran over and was about to climb into the carriage when he saw the two elder brothers paralyzed in the carriage in an extremely casual, even without a trace of poise.

Even though he was much more mature than the people of the same age in the village, he was also startled, and then slowly climbed up, found a corner near the door, and sat upright.

He Yunqi poured him tea, and Yu Zhou handed him his jacket.

After Yu Wenliang took it, he put it on properly, and then thanked him.

Yu Zhou waited for him to breathe a sigh of relief, and then asked: "I ran over in such a hurry just now, what's the matter?"

Although he and He Yunqi were eager to get back to the carriage to rest, they didn't run like Yu Wenliang.

It should be said that among so many candidates in the audience, there is no one like Yu Wenliang.

Yu Wenliang did everything, but when Yu Zhou asked, he still showed a shy expression, and his voice was not confident, "I want to ask the two elder brothers if there is any food left."

I don't know if it was a coincidence or he was really hungry. As soon as he finished speaking, his stomach made a grunting sound in coordination.

Yu Zhou and He Yunqi looked at each other, they were both taken aback.

He Yunqi first smiled and pushed the dim sum brought by Xiao Zhu to Yu Wenliang, "Eat some to pad your stomach first, and my grandmother will definitely let them prepare easy-to-digest food when I go back, and I will eat those when the time comes."

Yu Wenliang probably was really hungry, so he was not polite to He Yunqi, and even ate several pieces of snacks after thanking him.

Yu Zhou watched him stuttering, and rarely began to wonder whether he had passed the age of the most energetic.

It wasn't until he saw Yu Wenliang fell asleep on the wall of the car after eating a few pieces of snacks that he regained his confidence.

When the carriage drove back to the door of He's house, Mrs. He was waiting at the door with a group of people.

When the three of Yu Zhou and the others got out of the carriage, Mrs. He stepped forward and pulled He Yunqi to ask if she was tired.

He Yunqi's mother next to him glanced at her son's face, then turned to ask Yu Wenliang who had just taken a nap.

Jin Chuan also greeted Xiao Chenchen with his arms, but because of the presence of outsiders, he stopped a step away from Yu Zhou.

But Yu Zhou didn't have so many scruples, he went straight up and embraced Xiao Chenchen together, hugged for a while, and then reached out to pick up Xiao Chenchen.

Jin Chuan did not let go, "Husband has worked hard all day, Chenchen should let me hug you."

"No matter how hard you work to hug him, you still have the strength." Yu Zhou still insisted.

Afterwards, he hugged Chenchen and walked all the way to the side hall, and waited for Mrs. He to ask the kitchen staff to bring up the food before he gave Xiao Chenchen to Jinchuan again.

The He family prepared dinner for the three of them alone. It was delicious and not easy to accumulate food. After the meal, the three of them didn't talk about the exam. They rested for a while to digest, and then went back to their places of residence.

Yu Zhou's family of three lived in the yard next to He Yunqi, and Yu Wenliang lived in He Yunqi's yard, so the three chatted on the way.

Back at the place where he lived, there were only three members of Yu Zhou's family in the house. After washing up, it was time for Chenchen to go to bed. Yu Zhou hugged his son and lay on the bed to coax him to sleep.

Jin Chuan knew that his son had always been very well-behaved, he would not cry or fuss before going to bed at night, and he could fall asleep after being coaxed for a while, so he didn't stop Yu Zhou, and went to tidy up the things in the test basket for Yu Zhou.

There were very few things that could be brought into the examination room, so it took him at most a cup of tea to finish tidying up.

After adding everything that was missing in the test basket, he put the cloak that Yu Zhou took down into the closet, and found another one.

Tonight, he scented this cloak with calming incense for a while. After Yu Zhou came out of the examination room, wearing it could soothe his spirit, but it would not be appropriate to wear it when he went to the examination tomorrow morning.

After Jin Chuan was done, when he returned to the bedside, he saw that the husband who put his son to sleep had already put him to sleep, and even snored like never before.

The son who was coaxed opened his eyes and looked at this and that for a while, and he was more energetic than before being coaxed.

Jin Chuan couldn't hold back a silent laugh, and then went forward to cover his husband with a quilt, sat on the edge of the bed, patted his son's swaddle gently, and put him to sleep.

Chenchen quickly fell asleep this time.

Jin Chuan waited for a while, and after confirming that his son had fallen asleep, he carried him to the next door.

Then I took the exam for four consecutive days before I finished the county exam.

In the second round of the exam, the results of the first round had already been released, but only the seat numbers of the top [-] were announced, and the names were not announced.

Everyone in the He family didn't seem to care about the grades. Every day, apart from getting up early to send He Yunqi to the exam, and waiting for him to come back at night, they discussed what to prepare for the three of them.

Jin Chuan was influenced by them, and thought that even if he knew the previous rankings, he would still have to take the exam later, and it would easily affect his mood, so he didn't even look at it.

Therefore, until the final results were announced, the three of Yu Zhou had no idea how they ranked in the previous rounds.
