I married my next cousin after being a scumbag

The Chinese New Year pays attention to family togetherness, and relatives walking around are all things after the new year.So after lunch, Tang Shi'an and the others didn't go out.Wait for the first month of the first month to go and walk around. The two families have a good relationship, and the New Year's greetings have already been prepared.

In the afternoon, Tang Shi'an and Bai Ranxi gave the red envelopes they had prepared to Little Niqiu, which were stuffed with silver coins.It's a lot of money, and it should be saved for Little Loach's private house.

This was Tang Shi'an's first year here, so the meaning was naturally different.Not only has the world changed, but there are also people by his side, which Tang Shi'an could never have imagined before.

In the evening, he cooked the dumplings made in the morning. When making the dumplings, Bai Ranxi put cleaned copper coins in the dumplings. There were three coins in total, mixed in a pile of dumplings. Whoever could eat them would be lucky.

Being particular is such a particular thing, but these words can only deceive a child like Little Nixiu. The dumplings wrapped in copper coins are heavier than the other ones, and when Bai Ranxi scooped them out of the pot, they had already divided them.

"Daddy, copper coins." There were not many dumplings in the little loach bowl, and the children ate very little.But the first one I picked had copper coins in it, so I was lucky.Little Niqiu hurriedly took out the copper coins from the dumpling stuffing and handed them to his father.

"Yuan'er is really powerful." Bai Ranxi took the copper coin, tied it with a red string, and hung it around the neck of the little loach.

Afterwards, Tang Shi'an and Bai Ranxi also ate the copper coins in their own bowls, and the little loach was even happier, and they clamored to prepare a dumpling with copper coins for A Xi and A Le.

Later, Tang Shi'an persuaded him, saying that he was afraid that the dog would swallow the copper coins in one gulp, which would be bad for the dog, so Little Niqiu gave up his thoughts.

After dinner, New Year's Eve pays attention to keeping the year old. After midnight, a firecracker will be set off to drive away the Nian beast.Little Niqiu was still young, and before that time, he was coaxed to sleep by Bai Ranxi first.

Tang Shi'an and Bai Ranxi were sitting in the yard chatting, it was cold winter, and sitting like this until midnight would make them feel uncomfortable.Tang Shi'an took the dry firewood he picked up and put them in a pile, spread dead leaves underneath, and lit a fire to roast. The sky in winter was already very dark, this pile of fire not only dispelled the chill, but also dispelled the darkness.

In the middle of the night, other people in the village had already lit firecrackers. The crackling sound was extraordinarily loud in the silent night, and the gunpowder smoke everywhere also heralded the arrival of the new year.

"Husband, happy new year." Bai Ranxi whispered in Tang Shi'an's ear when Tang Shi'an came back after lighting the firecrackers.

"Happy New Year, Ran Xi." Tang Shi'an stroked Bai Ranxi's broken hair, and whispered back to Bai Ranxi.If it is not close, it will be covered by the noisy firecrackers.

"We will spend every New Year together in the future." Bai Ranxi hugged Tang Shi'an, even though they were separated by clothes, he could still feel the heartbeat of the other person.

"Yes, we still have decades to live together." Decades seem very long, but very short.If you can have someone with you all the time during this time, it will be wonderful no matter how long or short it is.

Saying goodbye to the old and welcoming the new, after New Year's Eve, the new year begins.

The new year is the beginning of spring, and Tang Shi'an has to prepare things in advance. When the beginning of February comes, the children's test will begin.Although the imperial examination is held once every three years, the children's examination is different. It is held twice in three years.

This year's exam happened to coincide with the rural exams in August and September. That is to say, if Tong passed the exam, he would start the exam in a few months, and if he passed the exam, he would start the exam in March next year.

The children's examination is divided into three sessions. The county examination in February is held in Qingshan County and presided over by the county magistrate.Qingshan Town is not far from the county, and the gentry before the exam guaranteed that Wen Mu had been delivered to him one step earlier.

Bai Ranxi was packing Tang Shi'an's things.There are still a lot of things to bring. There are five county exams, one day for each exam, but you have to reveal the nouns in each exam before you can take the next exam. "Husband, pack it up."

"Thank you, Ran Xi." Tang Shi'an collected his pen and ink, and the room in the county inn might be very tight for the exam the day after tomorrow. Fortunately, Wen Mu sent someone to say that he had reserved a room for him in the county's inn. But there is no need to worry.

Since cooperating with Wen Mu, the relationship between him and the Wen family has been shortened a lot, and there must be other reasons besides business.As for the reason, besides the scientific examination, Tang Shi'an couldn't think of anything else for the time being.

But the Wen family wanted to wait for him to be promoted to a noble in the future and help them back, but it was not right, after all, there were people behind the Wen family, and doing so would create a rift.Unless they think that the person behind this is no longer reliable and urgently needs a new backer.

It would be great if this new backer could have received their favor. If so, he would probably be just a fish in Wen Jiaguang's net, and according to Wen's family background, he would not hang himself on a crooked tree.

"Husband, I want to accompany you tomorrow." Bai Ranxi packed up her things and hugged Tang Shi'an. In the blink of an eye, it will be almost half a year since they were newly married, but they have never been away from Tang Shi'an for so long.

"Okay, let Brother Lu and the others take the little loach for a day." The journey is not far, and Bai Ranxi will not be troublesome to follow.

Now that the shops in the town haven't opened yet, Bai Ranxi just wants to wait for Tang Shi'an to finish the county examination, otherwise he will be busy with the shop and distracted from Tang Shi'an, fearing that neither side will please him.

In the first month of the children's examination, the county office announced the examination period, and Tang Shi'an had already registered.However, in order to register for the county examination, in addition to guarantees, one must also prepare a personal confession, reciprocal bond, and bond. He is helping the old gentleman who sells books for this matter.

It's easy to say, it's your own resume, just write it yourself.Mutual knot is to ask five candidates to guarantee each other, if one person cheats, five people will sit together.And the bond is to ask the county clerk to provide insurance, in order to prove the innocence of the property, not fake nationality, substitute, pseudonym, or concealment.

It's not difficult to say, as long as you study in the academy, the teachers and classmates will solve it, but Tang Shi'an belongs to the solo school, and his reputation is not very good, so it will take some effort to find someone to come.

Before Tang Shi'an had time to think about what to do, the old man had already agreed to help him with this matter.He can make the bond, and there is no need to worry about the bond. There are not many students who study at home like Tang Shi'an.

And when these students come to this time, if they don't have enough people, they ask the old gentleman for help. After all, most of the students have to go to the bookstore, and the old gentleman is indeed very knowledgeable in this regard.Even if Tang Shi'an's character has been heard by others, but with the old man as the middleman, he can rest assured.

After getting things ready, Tang Shi'an and Bai Ranxi went to the county the next day.It was said that the county was not far from the village, but it would still take half a day to walk there. Tang Shi'an rented a carriage in the town, and it was not yet noon when he arrived at the county.

The county is naturally much more prosperous than the town, and there are several inns. Because of the children's exam tomorrow, there are many more students in the county than usual. Wen's inn is the largest in the county, and the name of the inn is Wen's There is no need for him to bother to find the inn.

Get off the carriage, give the driver money, and let the driver go to rest first, and send Bai Ranxi back in the afternoon.After entering the inn, the waiter in the store greeted him.

"Is the guest officer staying at the hotel?" Xiao Er saw Tang Shi'an was holding a bag in his hand, so he guessed that this guest was going to take a scientific examination.

"Well, I booked a room before." At this time, if you want to stay in the hotel, you probably don't have any rooms. Looking at the people in the hall, you can tell that the business of this inn is booming.

"But Mr. Tang Shi'an Tang?" As soon as Xiaoer heard about the house, he recognized the person who came. Now there is only one room left in the store, and it was his young master who said he wanted to keep it.

"Exactly."

Xiao Er got an affirmative response, and immediately led people upstairs. The guest rooms are divided into grades, and the room Tang Shi'an lives in is the best one in Tian Zi.The guest rooms of Tianzihao are mostly on the third floor, far away from the noisy environment below, and clean when studying.

When Tang Shi'an and Bai Ranxi entered the room, Xiao Er withdrew, and before leaving, he said that he could call him if there was anything to do.This guest room is very large, even has a desk, and there are paper, ink, brush and inkstone on it.

Probably because people who can afford Tianzihao rooms don’t like these things, so they put them like this. Otherwise, if every guest room has them, some people with dirty hands and feet will have no reason to take them. After all, not all scholars All self-denial and courtesy.

"The inn here is not bad." Bai Ranxi looked around, and tidied up together with Tang Shi'an.

"The Wen family's business is still big, so naturally they won't be stingy." In fact, these places can reflect the Wen family's financial resources. If they come to the capital, the Wen family is actually nothing.

After packing up his things, Tang Shi'an led Bai Ranxi to the street. Lunch was not used in the inn, and there were many people and noisy inside, so it's better to find a clean place outside.

The county has a large population, and there are many types of things. All the way through, there are hawkers hawking.

"Husband, look at the shop in front." Although Bai Ranxi didn't find it new, she hadn't seen these scenes for a long time.

Tang Shi'an looked in the direction Bai Ranxi pointed, and there was the fruit water shop run by Wen Mu in the county.Compared with their small shop in the town, this shop looks like the real thing.Not to mention the large size of the shop, there are two floors for the guests to rest and chat, which can be regarded as very thoughtful.

"Would you like to take a look?" Tang Shi'an felt that this was expected, and if he went to a larger provincial capital, it would only be more refined.

"En." Bai Ranxi wanted to see how the Wen family was run, and he could learn from some good things.

The name of the shop is not the extremely perfunctory name that Tang Shi'an got. The plaque says Qingyinju, which sounds good.Stepping into the store door, the nameplates are placed in front of the counter, so that the customers who come can see what is sold in the store at a glance.

There are also many types of flavors on it, Bai Ranxi is used to drinking the one cooked by himself, but it's the first time to drink someone else's, but he doesn't know how to choose.

"This is the first time for the guest officer, so you want to try the signs of this store." The shopkeeper standing behind the counter often receives new customers, seeing Bai Ranxi's hesitation, he greeted him loudly.
