Daiyu didn't expect to see a strange man in her father's yard, and she was a little frightened. Fortunately, the wet nurse Wang quickly reacted and blocked Daiyu, looking at Jia Lian vigilantly.

Seeing this, Jia Lian smiled wryly, and bowed her hands, "I'm Jia Lian, I've seen Cousin Lin, I'm sorry."

Hearing that he called himself Jia Lian, and also called her Cousin Lin, Lin Daiyu was a smart person, and immediately thought that Jia Lian was from her mother's natal family. .”

When the two greeted each other, someone came out and invited them in.

Lin Ruhai had already finished washing, and when he saw the two of them coming in together, he couldn't help saying, "I also said that I want you to get to know each other today, it seems that you already know each other, Yu'er, come and sit here."

Because of Jia Lian's words yesterday, Lin Ruhai deeply felt that his father had not done enough. Today, when facing Daiyu, he was more gentle than ever.

Lin Ruhai introduced Jia Lian to Daiyu, such as who is Jia Lian's father, what is his relationship with her mother, and so on.

Lin Daiyu was already smart, so she fully understood Jia Lian's identity information in a short while.

"You are not fully recovered from your illness, go back and rest. You don't have to come to say hello every morning and evening. When you recover from illness, I will take you to play in Zhuangzi."

Lin Ruhai's guarantee made Lin Daiyu a little surprised. Since her younger brother and mother died of illness one after another, not only she suffered a great blow, but also her father. Her father was an adult and could bear it, but she couldn't. , serving decoctions every day, but still failed to save her mother's life, she felt as if she had been abandoned, and the uneasiness in her heart was very strong.

But now, her father made up for her anxiety.

She could feel the change in her father, but she didn't know how the change came about.

With doubts in her heart, Daiyu left the main courtyard to go back to recuperate.

After Daiyu left, Lin Ruhai gave Jia Lian the name he had thought of for Jia Lian.

The word Chengde.Inheritance, commitment, and continuation; virtue is the meaning of moral conduct and will.The meaning of Chengde is to look forward to Jia Lian's bright future.

Jia Lian now has a lot of ink in his stomach, and he soon understood the meaning of this word, and his eyes were slightly red.

Apart from the second uncle, this uncle is the one who treats him best among the male elders.

"Thank you uncle!"

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "Repay your heart with your heart, you don't have to do this," he said with a sigh, "Originally, I hired a Jinshi gentleman to teach her for Yu'er, but you came by accident, the emperor intends to reinstate the former member. Mr. Wei has resigned from the library and gone to Beijing."

"Most of the old staff were dismissed, so it's not so easy to get back?" Jia Lian didn't care whether Jinshi was a Jinshi or not, and how could a Jinshi be better than his uncle Lin Ruhai?

Lin Ruhai smiled and said, "His talent and learning ability is still very good. Although there are some flaws, it is reasonable. I have written a letter to Cun Zhou and asked him to see your second uncle. As for your second uncle, would you like to be promoted?" He, it depends on his luck."

"Second Uncle likes scholars the most, and he is respectful to corporals. If he is really talented, Second Uncle will definitely help." Jia Lian said.

"Speaking of which, this gentleman is from the same genealogy as yours, and his surname is Jia. After becoming a Jinshi, he served as an official for several years. After being dismissed by his superiors, he traveled to Yangzhou."

Jia Lian laughed, "Uncle seems to like him very much?"

"This Mr. Jia will surely be promoted in the future." Lin Ruhai asserted.

Jia Lian has never met that Mr. Jia, so he has reservations about this and will not express his views.

After that, Jia Lian studied in Lin's house every day, and the Jia family's boat arrived in Yangzhou a month later, and the boat was full of gifts for the Lin family.

The members of the Jia family didn't stay in the Lin family for long, and soon set off for Beijing.

But Jia Lian stayed in Yangzhou to study, and set off for Jinling until the end of June. Yangzhou is not far from Jinling, and it only takes a few days to get there by boat. Jia Lian didn't have to go so early, but there was a reason for him to go so early. of.

The college examination is divided into annual examination and scientific examination. Only those who pass the scientific examination can take the rural examination. Those who do not take the scientific examination can also take the supplementary examination one month before the provincial examination. Jia Lian is going to take the supplementary examination in July this time. It is the rural examination.

Before leaving, Lin Ruhai told him repeatedly, relax, don't be nervous, if you are too nervous and fail, you will regret it in the future.

Jia Lian was still a little nervous at first, but when he heard Lin Ruhai say that being nervous might lead to failure, he didn't dare to be nervous. After all, he only had one chance to complete the task issued by the system, and he could only succeed and not fail.

Whether it is for rewards or his own future prospects, he must succeed.

It is not difficult for Jia Lian to take the supplementary exam. The difficulty of admission is equivalent to that of the college exam. He has taken the exam once, and there is no problem in taking the exam again. He has improved a lot in the past two years, and his grades will only be better if he takes the exam again. .

There were a lot of people who took the make-up exam. Those who failed the provincial exam in previous years, or those who took the make-up exam like Jia Lian, accumulated quite a lot.

Jia Lian successfully passed the make-up exam. After the make-up exam was released, time was very tight, so Jia Lian simply lived in Jinling and waited for the start of the township exam.

The start of the township exam was on the ninth day of August, and there were three exams in a row. It wasn't long before Jia Lian finished the make-up exam and the township exam officially started.

In the twinkling of an eye, the day of the township exam came, and the township exam had to enter the exam room one day earlier, that is, the eighth day of the eighth day, and had to sleep in the exam room that night.

It was the hottest month in August, and there was no ice in the examination room. It was really difficult. However, Jia Lian ate a system-rewarded Bodhi Pill before his loss, which greatly improved his physical fitness. Can survive, and at the same time, he also thought of the main task of the system.

The system wanted to turn him into a person with both civil and military skills, and now he understood why. For people, the body is also very important, otherwise they would not be able to pass the series of exams.

This year's township examination will release the rankings on September [-]th. As soon as the rankings were posted, Jia Lian's system responded.

[Main task (both civil and military): The second phase of the task has been completed. 】

[System rewards issued. 】

Since the system reminded him that he had completed the task, that is to say, this time, Xie Yuan, who won the first place in the Jinling Township test, was Jia Lian.

Jia Lian's heart that had been hanging all this time immediately let go when he was prompted by the system.

Although he was confident that he could pass the exam, but before the result came out, everything was possible. Maybe he didn't pass the exam?

Fortunately, the result was very gratifying, and he passed the exam.

[Because the goal is to complete the second stage of the task, the system backpack function is now enabled, the reward has been placed in the system backpack, please check it. 】

[Unlock the main task (both civil and military) the third stage task: Please transform the target to be the champion within three years. 】

[Unlock the main task (both civil and military) the third stage task: Please transform the target to read through the Art of War Encyclopedia within three years. 】

A series of reminders came, and Jia Lian was confused.

"The Encyclopedia of Art of War? What Encyclopedia of Art of War?"

[The Art of War Encyclopedia is the essence of art of war extracted by the system, which has been put into the system backpack, please check it. 】

Jia Lian looked left, right, up and down, but saw nothing, and the corner of his mouth twitched.

"Where's the system backpack?"

[Mentally read the backpack to open the backpack. 】

It's such a trouble, why don't you just give it to him?Jia Lian complained in his heart, but he didn't speak out to ask for a beating.

He was thinking about the backpack in his mind, when a huge screen suddenly appeared in front of him with many grids, Jia Lian was taken aback for a moment.

This is the backpack?

He saw that there seemed to be something in the grid in the first row, he hesitated for a moment, he reached out and clicked on the book in the grid, and a book appeared in the blink of an eye.

The book reads: Encyclopedia of the Art of War.

Oh, it turns out that this is the book on the art of war given by the system. He flipped through it, frowned, and put the book into the system backpack.

The backpack of the system is very convenient for storing things, and it can be carried with you without fear of losing it. Jia Lian suddenly felt that having a backpack is very useful and practical.

He took out the reward given by the system, it was still a small bottle.

"Is there still Bodhi Pill in here?"

[Bodhi Pill is hard to come by, but it's a good idea for you. 】

Jia Lian choked for a moment, but he didn't dare to get angry. He had no right to be angry with the system.

"Then what is this?"

[This is a bottle of Great Return Pill, because you won the first place in the exam, Jie Yuan, and completed the task perfectly within the time limit. There are twenty pills in this bottle, and you can take them as you like. 】

Jia Lian's eyes lit up in a flash, "Is it the Shaolin Temple's exclusive secret medicine, the Great Returning Pill? The one that strengthens the body and brings the dead back to life."

【This is it. 】

Jia Lian's breathing became short of breath, and it was hard for him to calm down from the excitement.

He has twenty Great Returning Pills in his hand, how should he use them?

Uncle and Cousin Lin are not in good health. Uncle has been kind to him. It is thanks to Uncle Lin's painstaking guidance in the past few months that Xie Yuan was able to pass the exam. Bar?

"System, can this Da Huan Dan solve Cousin Lin's insufficiency?"

[The Great Returning Pill from Shaolin Temple does not have this effect, but the system can. 】

Hearing this, Jia Lian immediately felt relieved.

……

More than 100 candidates were selected for trial in this subject township, and the most eye-catching one is undoubtedly the top one, Xie Yuan Jia Lian.

Although Jia Lian passed the Xiao Sanyuan exam before, he did not attract much attention, but when he took away the first place in the provincial examination, those sour scholars could no longer ignore this honorable son who was not in their eyes.

Although many people said that it is impossible for a noble family to produce scholars, this is a fallacy. On the contrary, only such aristocratic families can produce scholars with a high probability, and it is not only those from poor families that are called scholars.

Jia Lian was born in a big family like the Jia family, so as long as he has the talent for reading and is willing to work hard, he can become an official through the imperial examination.

This is true of Jia Jing of the Jia family, Lin Ruhai of the Lin family, and the current Jia Lian. If Jia Zhu did not die early, he would also be a member of the Jia family who entered the imperial examination.

The next day after the township examination was released, there was the Luming Banquet. Although Jia Lian came from a noble family, he was from a great family after all. Naturally, many scholarly families would not bother to please Jia Lian, but some children from poor families were willing to submit to him. If you are low and small, of course you are all juren, and you won't show it clearly. At most, you will flatter and flatter Jia Lian in words.

For these flattery, Jia Lian didn't care at all. He grew up in a wealthy family like Rongguo Mansion, and he was very aware of some intrigues. These people's flattery to him was like those servants in the mansion who flattered and took care of things. So, the words are rough and the rationale is not rough.

After the Luming Banquet, Jia Lian set off for Yangzhou, and thanked Lin Ruhai for his teaching for several months in person.
