I sell hot pot in Dasong [farming]

Two things happened this early winter.

One is that Fan Xuan'er was degraded as a slave and escorted by officers and soldiers to the other palace in Xijing.Although the Wei family had broken ties with her, he was worried after all, and ordered Cao Guo to see her off all the way, which was considered the utmost benevolence and righteousness.

This woman whose heart is higher than the sky, but whose virtue is not worthy of her ambition, has never appeared in the eyes of everyone since then. She may have died quietly, or she may have endured hard work, or she may have resigned herself to her fate and married a A servant similar to hers spends the rest of her life in numbness or resentment.

Another thing that has a big impact on the court is that the officials are sick.

Tang Xuan, Zhao Zongshi and others stayed in the palace and took care of them day and night. The queen took the harem lady and all the relatives to Daxiangguo Temple to fast and pray for blessings. So as not to hit the blood.

Among them is the Hu family.

The siblings of the Yu family had been nervous for several days, and at this moment they finally breathed a sigh of relief.No matter what, he didn't want to watch Hu's beheaded.

Si Nan didn't think much about it, he didn't care about it at all.

The cubs are going to participate in the winter exam of Ruoshui Academy!

Once you pass the exam, you can enter!

Sinan finally realized how his father felt when he was in the college entrance examination. He couldn't eat or sleep well, and he was more nervous than his children.

Finally this day came, Sinan got up early in the morning, did nothing else, first boiled a pot of boiled eggs.

They are very particular about eating, and one person must eat two, sticking it with a chopstick, which indicates that one can get [-] points in the test.

It was rare for Tang Xuan to take the time to bring breakfast to the children, which was their favorite spicy soup and horseshoe biscuits.

The cub took a sip of the hot soup, bent his eyes and smiled, "If you drink soup, will you get a 'soup score'?"

Dongzao Hanhan said: "If you eat sesame seed cakes, you will be tested for 'flavored sesame seed cakes', right?"

Er Dou raised his hand, "I want to take the 'Hot Pot Score' test!"

Si Nan burst out laughing, feeling much more relaxed.

Tang Xuan just spent the night at Funing Hall last night. He was supposed to catch up on sleep this morning, and he had to go to the Imperial City Department later.He sacrificed the time to catch up on sleep and insisted on sending the children to Ruoshui Academy.

Sinan was moved and distressed, so he simply rode the horse and let him sit in the back.

Tang Xuan could climb along the pole, with his arms around his waist, his chin resting on his shoulders, he said that he was tired and took a break, but in fact he blatantly took advantage of it.

Be blatant and blatant, anyway, Sinan is not a shameless person.

The officials have agreed, no matter what others say!

I just hate that the road is too short, and I will arrive in a while.

Tang Xuan wanted to send them in, but Si Nan refused, "If you are here, what if you are misunderstood and go through the back door?"

Tang Xuan smiled, "Even if I'm not here, no one will know that this is my child?"

Sinan was pleased by the term "my child". He smiled happily, hugged his neck and kissed him, "I order you to go back and rest. When the official's health is better, I will come to stay at home for two days and make it for you every day." delicious."

Tang Xuan pursed his lips, and took out a small notebook from his arms, "Write it down."

Si Nan clicked his tongue: "What about the minimum trust between people?"

Tang Xuan didn't say anything, just flipped through the pages and pointed to him.

The first page: Tang Xuan owes Sinan a meal of haggis soup.

Page [-]: Tang Xuan said that the first batch of fungus was all given to Sinan.

The third page: Tang Xuan lost the bet and owed a whole roasted lamb.

……

Every page was signed with Tang Xuan's name, written by Si Nan holding his hand.This time, it was Tang Xuan's turn to hold his hand and write down stroke by stroke——

"Sinan promised to let Tang Xuan stay at home for a few days and sleep with him every day."

Si Nan glanced at him sideways, "Why didn't I know this shop still has this service?"

"The newly added one only serves vvvvvvip, that is, me." Tang Xuanli said confidently.

Si Nan cut it, changed "sleeping him" to "sleeping place", and signed his flamboyant name.

Tang Xuan watched, smiled, and pampered him.

In the carriage - fearing that the wind would be too cold and make the children sick, Sinan specially hired a carriage - Xiao Zai held Zai Zai's hand, worried.

He didn't want to disturb the hugs between master brother and the county king's father, but he was very worried, what if he couldn't register?What if the registration is late and the husband doesn't like it?

The rest of the kids thought exactly the opposite of him.

They wished that they would not be able to register and fail the exams, so that they would not have to suffer in Ruoshui Academy!

Finally, the two unscrupulous parents got bored, Tang Xuan rode away, and Si Nan brought a confident six children into the academy.

In fact, Sinan knew that the older ones didn't like reading, but he still insisted on bringing them over together.

It is also the first time for him to be a parent, so he doesn't know if it is right to do so. He just thinks that the children are still young, and the choices they make may not be right. Offer the best opportunity.

If in a few years, when they grow up, they still feel that studying is not suitable for them, Sinan will respect their choice.

It wasn't until he played the role himself that he finally understood the modern dad.

Ruoshui Academy's winter exam is very rigorous, registration in the morning, exam in the afternoon, and the announcement of the results the next day, regardless of whether it is a son, a grandson or a commoner, all are treated equally.

At the beginning, Erlang did not take the entrance examination because he was studying in the "Martial Arts Academy" for "martial arts".

Xiao Zai wants to go to the "Chongwen Pavilion" that can directly reach Taixue. From this name, we can see the ambition of Ruoshui Academy.

Something went wrong when signing up.

The gentleman in charge of recording saw Xiao Zai's hand, and said politely: "Can you invite the student out for a while, I need to have a private word with the recommender."

Si Nan guessed his intentions, held the handle politely, and said, "Thank you sir for your kindness, there is no need to shy away from this matter, my children have experienced it and can bear it, and I will discuss with them big and small matters in the family."

The gentleman looked at it in surprise, and then said: "Since that's the case, I'll just say it - do you know that people with disabilities are not allowed to be officials?"

Si Nan said: "The kid knows."

Mr. frowned, "Then you still..."

Si Nan smiled, and patted Xiao Zai on the shoulder, "You can tell Mr. yourself, okay?"

Xiao Zai nodded his head, took a step forward, saluted politely, and said calmly: "Brother Master said, reading is for understanding reason, understanding good and evil, and knowing right and wrong, not necessarily for being an official. With so many of them, how many of them can pass the exam and enter the imperial court?"

The little guy paused, "Reading and writing is just to make our minds smarter, with knowledge in our brains and reason in our hearts. No matter what we do, no matter where we go, we will be confident and rich. A hotpot restaurant is different if you have read the book or have not read the book.”

After some words, the gentleman smiled, "Good! It's really good! The head of the mountain often said that although you can get fame by studying, you can't get it for the sake of it. You can understand this truth at a young age!"

"Brother Master told me!" Xiao Zai said proudly.

The husband teased him with a smile, "Do you want to open a hot pot restaurant in the future?"

"No," Xiao Zai said crisply, "Students want to be a selfless gardener like you, teaching and educating people, and the world is full of peaches and plums."

After thinking for a while, he added: "Many talented gentlemen go to the Taixue and private schools of rich and noble families to teach, hoping to cultivate talented disciples. The head of Ruoshui Academy and gentlemen run an academy to recruit common people's children. Confucian said, 'There is no distinction between teaching and learning'."

The gentleman was taken aback, but couldn't help being moved.

He was originally a teacher in Taixue, but because of his arrogant temper and dislike of human relations, he was excluded by his colleagues, so he came to Ruoshui Academy.

Although he came here, he was a bit depressed after all, but at this moment, after hearing Xiao Zai's words, he suddenly became enlightened.

The husband was a little excited and asked, "Son, what's your name?"

"Si Jia. 'Si' is the student's surname, and 'Jia' is derived from the phrase 'Kong Jia is new, what is the old like?' in "Poetry", which means beautiful." The cub puffed out his small chest and said crisply .

"Good name."

The gentleman smiled lovingly, swiped the pen, and wrote down the name forcefully.And secretly played tricks, classifying the cub as a character A, if he can pass the exam smoothly, he will be his student in the future.

When he looked at the cub again, there was already a little more pride in his eyes for his own cub, and he was even kind to the other children.

The children scratched their heads one by one, thinking silently in their hearts: Don't look at us, don't look at us, we are just little idiots, different from cubs...

In order for the children to hurry up and read the book, Sinan shamelessly borrowed Erlang's dormitory.

Erlang was always very popular, and Sinan brought a large bag of sauce-flavored dried meat for "bribing". Not only did the young gentlemen not object, but they also worked together to help them hide from the manager.

Sinan originally wanted the little gentlemen to draw important points for the children, but he forgot that this dormitory is full of "martial arts halls". The cub heard something wrong, so he told them.

The young gentlemen were stunned when they heard it, and looked at Erlang with envy, "Your brother will definitely become a very learned person, like the head of a mountain."

Erlang hooked the cub's neck, and raised the corner of his mouth to the sky, "It's average, the third in the world."

Young gentlemen really want to beat him.

However, he couldn't beat it.

Xiao Zai flipped through the notes carefully organized under Tang Xuan's guidance, and sighed silently: The students in the martial arts academy are not very good. If he becomes a teacher in the future, he must urge them to study hard.

The young gentlemen boasted about the cubs while eating the jerky. They never imagined that one day in the future, their next generation would complain endlessly at the hands of the cubs.

There are two exams in the afternoon, one is the recitation of "The Analects of Confucius", whichever one is drawn will be memorized, and the other is the interpretation of "The Book of Songs".

In fact, as long as the first subject can be memorized, it is over. After all, it is only to test the foundation of the children, and they have to learn it all over again after entering school.

As for the second subject, it is for the selection of "excellent students", who will be included in Class A and focus on training. After three or two years, outstanding students can be admitted to Taixue.

Luckily for the cub, the paraphrase he got was just the part of "The Cricket Gets Under My Bed" in "July".

It was the first time he plucked up the courage to ask Tang Xuan a question, and this was what Tang Xuan told him.He remembered every word Tang Xuan said clearly.

The little guy happily wrote it down, thought about it, and added his own understanding, such as what Sinan would occasionally say about farmers working hard and needing to cherish food.

The gentleman on the field tour passed by him, first noticed his "baby hand", and then saw the answer he wrote, feeling sorry and moved.

It's a pity that such a good seedling can't be an official. What's moving is that even with this bad luck, the little guy is still optimistic, confident, calm and excellent. People of my generation, why not work hard?

The two exams totaled an hour, and Sinan spent the longest two hours in his life.

It wasn't until I saw a few little radish heads coming out of my family holding hands that I didn't let go of my heart.

Si Nan didn't ask them how they did in the exam, but he was relieved to see that every little guy was happy.

Released the next day.

Huaishu specially took a day off to take the children to watch their grades on a tricycle.

Si Nan and Tang Xuan waited at home, making kang buns with noodles, thinking that if they did well in the exam, it would be a reward, and if they failed the exam, it would be comfort.

The kids came back quickly.

There is something wrong with the appearance.

Except for the cub, the rest of them had red eyes and were covering their buttocks, looking as if they had been beaten by a locust tree.Xiao Zai also hugged Xiao Yuan's hand, with an expression of doing something wrong.

Sinan couldn't help wondering, maybe he didn't pass the exam?

Huaishu had a guilty expression on his face: "Xiaozao entered Class A, Dongzao entered the martial arts school, and the rest... all failed."

The children lowered their heads and apologized, for fear that Sinan would be unhappy.

Sinan quickly comforted: "It's okay, if you don't pass the exam this year, there will be next year, so what, in order to celebrate the cubs successfully passing the exam, today the king of the county personally cooks a very, very delicious mutton kang bun!"

The children timidly nodded their heads, but they were still listless.

Si Nan clapped his hands, "Let's congratulate Xiaozai and Dongzao together, shall we?"

The children became more energetic and clapped their hands.

The most surprising thing is the winter jujube.

Originally, he was the worst student among them, but when he left the examination room, he supported a broken pillar. Fortunately, he was selected by the chief instructor of the martial arts school, and he became a classmate with Erlang.

——Students in this class, regardless of age, are taught riding, shooting, boxing and kicking uniformly. Every year, outstanding students are selected into the imperial army, and the lowest is from the eighth rank.

The little guy is in a daze until now, not knowing what this means to him.

Sinan was worried that the other children would be unhappy, so he prepared gifts for them in advance and asked them to go to the house to get them.

The children thanked them in a low voice, and entered the room with their heads down one by one.

After a while, he suddenly heard the sound of "hangchihangchi" coming from the room, Sinan thought the little guys were crying, so he hurried to the window to look in——

Where is crying!

The children were pulling the big flower kite he had just given away, rolling around and laughing secretly.

"I'm so glad I didn't pass the exam!"

"You don't need to go to Ruoshui Academy, you don't need to take the exam every month, if you don't pass the exam, you'll have to get slapped!"

"Yes, we are salted fish!"

Erdou raised his hand, "I'm a salted fish who wants to be a cook!"

Xiaomu and Xiaogouzi raised their hands, "We are salted fish who want to be carpenters!"

Little Mantou and Little Eggplant raised their hands, "We are salted fish who don't know what to do yet!"

The little salted fish are stupid and can't learn anything well, so they just want to stay by Master's side for the rest of their lives!

Simon: ...

Ha ha ha ha ha.

"One hundred ways to eat small salted fish" is sorted out in minutes.

Huaishu interceded for the younger brothers in a shy way: "Master, don't be angry, I was already beaten up on the way back."

Si Nan glanced at him, "Our family does not engage in domestic violence."

Only more cruel methods will be used!

Si Nan returned to the stove and said angrily, "Put more meat and fry it in oil, so as to make it fragrant."

Then he was greedy for the group of small salted fish, and was not allowed to eat a single bite!

Tang Xuan smiled and said hello.

For the sake of the cubs, it was the first time for him to cook food himself.

As described in many novels, when kneading noodles, add water if there is too much noodles, and add noodles if there is too much water. Originally, there was only half a basin of noodles, but he mixed it into a full basin.

Si Nan was angry and funny, "You better go chop stuffing!"

Tang Xuan looked at his little white hands rubbing his face back and forth, reluctant to leave, "Aren't you afraid that I'll chop up the chopping board?"

"Then you'd better knead the dough, I'll chop it up." Sinan quickly pulled his hand out of the dough.

Tang Xuan pressed it back for him again, "I don't know how, you teach me."

Si Nan sank into his arms, and bumped his chin with the back of his head, "Where's your face?"

Tang Xuan smiled, "No more."

In the washbasin, the two hands hooked together, kneading the dough until it was submissive, and there was a sour smell of love.

Simon did what he said.

For dinner, he and Tang Xuan ate mutton steamed buns baked with mutton fat, mutton leg, and shallots. Layers upon layers, the outside was charred and the inside was fragrant. The aroma of mutton and cumin unscrupulously seduced the taste buds.

There is also bright haggis soup, which has been boiled for three hours with sheep's head and big stick bones. Except for salt and green onions, no extra seasoning is left, only the umami of the lamb itself.

As soon as the pot was opened, the milky white soup was bubbling and bubbling, just like what Sinan said, the fragrance went out of Badaojie.

The children were so greedy that they swallowed their saliva, but they could only watch helplessly, gnawing dry steamed buns and eating clear porridge.

As "accomplices", Xiaozai, Dongzao and Huaishu share joys and sorrows with the other children.

It wasn't until the dead of night, when Si Nan went to bed, that the children rustled into the kitchen, lit up the bread oven, and baked the remaining kang buns until they were crispy, and ate them up.

Tiao Tiao Zai looked at the children, and then at Sinan's room, he was so entangled to death.

Want to sue?

The powerful Twolegs are also here!

The official finally got better, Tang Xuan threatened him with Si Nanli's written evidence, and had the cheek to "sleep him".

If you don't have any fear, you can lie down and sleep.

When it was over, he took the initiative to spread his arms and put Tang Xuan's head on it.

He just expected that the sound insulation of this room is poor, and there are children around, Tang Xuan can't do anything.Of course, he wouldn't do anything either - this must be added.

Two young bodies, so close to each other, can't help but feel distracted.

In order to divert attention, Sinan took the initiative to provoke the topic: "Is the official's health completely healed?"

Tang Xuan grunted: "The doctor checked the pulse, and it's all over. I ate two big bowls of porridge this morning, and I also used half of the hawthorn cake you asked someone to send. I like it very much."

Sinan laughed sullenly, "I was afraid that he would be too angry to eat if he knew it was from me."

Tang Xuan was silent for a moment, then patted his head, "The official is not targeting you, please don't hold grudges against him."

Si Nan clicked his tongue and pinched his face, "Is King Yan so polite? He leaned on my arm and said 'please' to me?"

Tang Xuan couldn't help laughing, rubbed his forehead affectionately, and sighed: "In the past six months, the official family has aged very quickly. In the past, even if there were a few white hairs, the lady who combed the hair covered them so that no one would see them. Now, there are so many of them. I can't cover it anymore."

——So, even if you blame him, you can no longer catch cats in the middle of the night to disturb him.

Si Nan hugged his shoulders and said softly, "Don't blame yourself, I won't blame him. It's not because I'm generous, but because he is your adoptive father and someone you care about." In the darkness, Tang Xuan was silent again After a while, I found his lips, kissed them, and said in a hoarse voice, "Thank you."

Si Nan took a bite of him, and said dissatisfiedly: "If you are more polite, just roll off my bed."

"No." Tang Xuan smiled, not only did not roll off, but rolled onto him.

Si Nan propped his legs up, trying to lift him off, but accidentally bumped into a place he shouldn't have touched, and both of them froze.

Tang Xuan was breathing heavily.

Simon was not much better.

"Quick, say something."

distracted...

Tang Xuan hoarsely said: "Want it?"

"Say something else!" Sinan straightened his waist and moved in.

Tang Xuan refused to let him go, and said in a low voice while teasing him: "When eating haw jelly, the official said, Brother Nan has a heart, let me tell you something."

Si Nan pulled his big hand away, his voice fluttering, "What are you talking about?"

"That's the sentence, 'Brother Nan has a heart'." Tang Xuan leaned closer, and gently pecked his neck with his lips.

Sinan's breathing became heavier.

The status of the general offensive is precarious.
