Imperial Exam Daily

It was already dusk the next day when we returned to the county seat. The group of people were tired from sitting in soft sedan chairs. When we lifted the curtain of the sedan chair and saw Wenyang City in the dusk, a sense of steadiness arose in our hearts.

The gates of the county town are old and not as grand as the provincial capital, but after living here for a few years, I have long regarded this place as my root. The so-called golden nest and silver nest are not as good as my dog's nest, and the outside is so prosperous and wanton. Is it not as good as at home? comfortable.

When he arrived at the gate of the city, Yang Ye found that there were officers and soldiers stationed outside the gate today. This kind of thing rarely happens. Just when he was guessing that a big case happened in the county, he heard shouts of joy: " The people are back!"

The officers and soldiers came forward to lead their carriages in person. After entering the city, everyone found that many people from the county town came to welcome them back.

The leader is the magistrate of the county, followed by their three families, the masters and students of the nearby school, as well as some merchants, rich landowners and small farmers. The main street of the county town that has tended to be quiet at this time in the past is today. Very lively.

In fact, it is normal to mobilize people like this. There are very few juren in Wenyang County. It is a gratifying event to have one juren in three years. Now there are three juren, and they are the three top juren. Such a happy event is simply celebrated by the whole county. .

Several people got out of the carriage, thanked the people who came to greet them, and after a while of greetings, sympathized with their tiredness, so they didn't stand at the gate of the city for a long time, and sent them home.

The three of them said their farewells, but they didn't feel much reluctance to say goodbye. According to this posture, there will be another banquet tomorrow, and then according to the usual practice, they have to go to the county school to explain and share the experience of the exam to the scholars. Candidates are all right, but the three of them have already won the exam, so it is natural to choose the best candidate to give lectures.

All in all, I still can't live a peaceful life.

Meeting Xiaoxiang on the road, Axi left Yang Ye behind and went to play with the child in his arms.

Back home, my sister-in-law has already prepared dinner, but the two servants in the family have gone to the provincial capital now, and now the house is suddenly empty, Wu Yonglan has no one to help, the meal is prepared early, and now I have to go hot hot.

When Ah Xi got home, he helped Wu Yonglan to heat up the dishes.

Yang Ye took advantage of this time to arrest Yang Cheng, and the two brothers planted lemon trees in the yard, so that they could exercise their muscles after sitting in the carriage for a long time.

The two of them dug a hole and the other planted it. It felt a bit like farming in the countryside a few years ago. Inadvertently, I felt that those things that I had been doing for half my life were a bit strange.

"Now that there are no servants at home, it is still inconvenient to move around. I still have to go to the dental shop in a few days and buy two nimble hands and feet back."

Yang Cheng's thinking is also very open-minded, now the family is not only a rich family, but also has the house of the master Juren, if there are no two servants to take care of him, the few people who come to visit at home may have to make a joke, he readily agrees down.

Then he said again: "I see that our county is really not big. In the early years, we opened two shops and the pastries were still selling well. In recent months, there are always a lot of pastries left. I thought about how about only one shop in the county?"

Yang Ye thought for a while, and this problem does exist. The consumption power of the small county is just there. If a shop is closed, the left and right sides don't have enough manpower right now: "Then put up the notice earlier, and put the small shop down. After it is closed, we will keep the big shop in the future, and strive to open Fuxizhai's shop to other county and provincial capitals in the future."

In addition, Yang Ye is planting lemon trees, and he still has some thoughts in his heart. When next summer comes, he plans to open a cold vegetable shop, and then sell some cold vegetables and sell some folk snacks.

After dinner at night, Xiao Xiang, who hadn’t seen Ah Xi for a long time, ate the food brought back from the provincial capital, hugged Ah Xi’s neck and refused to let go: “I’m going to sleep with my little uncle tonight (some readers said that the name aunt is a bit strange , and now change to one)."

Wu Yonglan smiled and said: "The little girl always talks about Axi, and now she is very happy to be back, and she won't leave because she is clingy."

Yang Chengdao: "Xiaoxiang sleeps with her father and mother, and my little uncle wants to sleep with your second uncle. If you are disobedient, my little uncle won't like you."

Xiao Xiang pursed her mouth, looking aggrieved: "I'm going to sleep with my little uncle. Second uncle is an adult, why can't he sleep alone."

The whole family was amused by her words, Yang Ye said: "Second uncle is afraid of the dark, if your little uncle is not here, I will be too scared to sleep."

Ah Xi couldn't help but want to laugh when he heard him coaxing the children, but Yang Ye frowned, and winked at him, asking him to send the little sticky bug away.

"Okay, Xiao Xiang, my uncle is very tired when he came back from the provincial capital today, and he can't take care of you at night. Can Xiaoxiang sleep with his uncle again in another day?"

Although Xiaoxiang was unhappy, she nodded when she saw that Axi had spoken. However, when Wu Yonglan carried her back to the room, she still drooped her head, and Axi felt a little distressed.

"If you love Xiao Xiang, don't you love me? This little girl's film is thanks to the fact that I bought her so many things back, and ended up snatching her husband from me when I got home."

Axi walked to the bedroom, and said with a smile: "Why, why are you still fussing with a child, Xiaoxiang is not yet three years old this year, can, can he look like a second uncle."

Yang Ye hugged Axi from behind, and put his chin on his neck: "Our Axi likes children, and Yun Ye also likes to cling to you when you come here. If we have children in the future, then we can still have my foothold." place?"

Hearing Yang Ye's tone of voice, Ah Xi felt aggrieved, and didn't know if it was true or false: "I know it's nonsense, the child is still, or still missing."

Yang Ye kissed Ah Xi's side face: "Okay, since I don't have any children yet, I have to cherish these days."

After speaking, he hugged Axi to the bed by the waist.

The next day, Yang Ye went to the county school early in the morning, met Li Cheng and Wen Han at the gate, and Mrs. Xu picked up the three of them outside. It was the first time for Yang Ye and Li Cheng to get such an honor. The two are the two most troublesome for the teacher in the classroom.

Master Xu had a happy face, and treated the three of them very warmly. On the way to the county school, he asked a lot about things on the road and in the county, and many teachers greeted Master Xu along the way.

Li Cheng smiled and said, "Master seems to be very popular today~"

Mr. Xu snorted. He is serious on weekdays. He doesn’t take it seriously when the rest of the masters advocate gentle teaching. Of course, his popularity is not very good, but now he is proud. All three of them are his students. Those masters Can you treat him warmly?

"Don't play tricks, don't think that everything will be fine if you win the Juren, there is still a long way to go."

Li Cheng cupped his hands pretendingly: "Yes, you are right."

During the whole morning, the three of them talked about their experiences in turn. Yang Ye couldn't escape and was forced to speak for the longest time, but if he really wanted to talk, he didn't have much to say. Could it be that they were going to fight against the master like himself? Lazy all day long, after all, he was a classmate of his classmate for two years, and he also hoped that there would be more candidates in Wenyang City in the future, so that Wenyang County could be further developed, so he shared some miscellaneous books in his collection with everyone.

If you can buy it, go buy it and see for yourself, if you can't buy it, come to him to read it.

The scholars were of course happy when Xie Yuan shared the reading, and they all thanked Yang Ye.

It was almost noon after the lecture, and the three of Yang Ye went to the classroom to get their books. Now they are juren. Many masters in the school do not have the names of the three of them. I came to the classroom to shake my head and read with everyone.

In the past, I was tired of this boring life, but now I have to collect things and leave, but I still feel a little bit reluctant.

After Yang Ye said some blessings to the classmates in the classroom, the three of them left the classroom one by one.

"This time it was just bad luck that I encountered gangsters on the road, which delayed the best time to go to the provincial capital. If I hadn't gone back and forth, I might not have lost my name to Sun Shan in this township test. What are the three of them? Praise me for the wonderful writing of the article, if there is no accident, they can still have their business."

"Yes, in the future, the county school will have to rely on Qin Xiucai to take care of you. You are a person with experience in the rural examination, and you still have to take the exam after three years. I hope the scholar can give you some pointers."

The three of them went out and heard some people talking in the gazebo. Although they didn't see them, the three of them knew who they were. Li Cheng shook his fan and said, "Then I hope that the gangsters won't miss you when you rush for the exam next time. .”

Yang Ye and Wen Han laughed out loud.

Qin Mi, who was surrounded by stars in the gazebo, had blushed cheeks, and was a bit ashamed to be heard by three people who were speaking out loudly. The students around him also knew that they were embarrassed, so they lowered their heads and felt embarrassed to speak out.

After leaving the county school, Wen Han said: "Just as I came home yesterday, I heard from my mother that there were two wealthy families who wanted to attach themselves to our family and were willing to donate their property to buy me a small house in the county seat. What's the situation?"

Juren has the privilege of not participating in corvee service and paying taxes. Some small merchants and small wealthy owners do not have a large family business, and the court’s heavy tax life is difficult. Some of them will consign themselves to tenants, offer their own property, and drag their families to depend on Juren. With attachment, you can escape the oppression and extortion of tax envoys.

Now that Wen Han is the lord of Juren, naturally someone can't wait to come to his door, and the Wen family is poor, so the sense of distance of those local rich people is not so strong, and they feel that it is easier to succeed.

Li Cheng said: "Our family is controlled by my father. Since I have become a juren, I don't have to enjoy the benefits. If there are people who are eye-catching, my father will also choose a few households."

At present, there is no rich man in Yang Ye's family, and of course he will not refuse, but as Li Cheng said, he still chooses the good ones.

"Wen Han is satisfied with the wealthy locals who come to the door. It is a good thing that they are willing to buy a house in the county. It is convenient for us to meet in the future, and your study conditions will be much better."

Wen Han agreed: "One family is from the countryside, and the other is a businessman in the county town. They both seem to be down-to-earth people. They were always bullied by the county government in the past, so they want to find a backer. I think it's not bad. , so I decided to agree, my mother is old and not in good health, so it would be better to pick her up in the county town to provide for the elderly and enjoy the blessings."

"It's a good arrangement."

The author has something to say: there is another chapter tonight
