Prince of the Red Chamber wins rebirth

Far away, Yang Mu took Wang Zisheng's jokes, opened the car window and saw Jia She, as if in a lifetime, he was still an ignorant teenager, but after this journey, he became like an adult, darkened She is thinner and thinner, but she looks more energetic and seems to have grown taller again.

After getting off the car, Jia Amnesty rushed forward, very excited, "Senior Brother, Junior Brother, I hope you are here. Counting the days, there are thirteen days, four hours, quarter of an hour and a cup of tea. Okay. Long! My little brother finally understands what it feels like not to see each other every day."

Wang Zisheng rolled his eyes fiercely, where did this fool come from, it was too cheap, so he ignored it, turned around and walked inside.

On the contrary, Yang Mu was very helpful. He took Jia She's hand and said as he walked, "Yes! But you have lost a lot of weight. Is it too hot to bear? I don't want to eat or drink. I have a cook there who cooks some appetizers. For some small dishes, I copied a recipe, and then asked someone to give it to the cook, so that the subordinates can study hard.” Then, very naturally, he picked up the handkerchief in his hand, and wiped Jia Amnesty’s sweat, “You are also staying indoors. Well, if you can still pick things up, even if you feel bad, you can wait until you have passed the report before you come out, and it will be too late, look at the sweat on your forehead, and your face is turning red like this."

Because the three of them have a good relationship, there are no female relatives to avoid in the old house of Jia's mansion. The three of them passed through the courtyard on the right side and arrived at the lake in the backyard of Jia's mansion. There is a boat built near the lake, which is divided into three parts. In the first section, the front cabin is higher, the middle cabin is slightly lower, and the rear cabin is built with a two-story building for viewing from a height.Fang wrote "Linyuan Xianyu" in four big characters.The three of them went to the second floor of the back cabin and sat inside, looking at the lake, enjoying the cool breeze.Wang Zisheng looked at Jia She with cold eyes, he seemed to be in a good mood, and it seemed that the problem was solved thoroughly.

Jia She said: "Speaking of the cook, my cook made a fish dish, which is sweet and sour. It uses grapes from my yard. Now I pick them and squeeze them into juice. It's a combination of the freshness and tenderness of the two. It tastes good. , have an appetizer and dinner, besides the crabs that were brought here today, this is what I want to focus on tasting." After finishing speaking, he looked at the two shyly, "It's not a rare item, but the grapes are my own. Picking it up is considered a wish!"

Yang Mu smiled slightly, and said with a long tone, "Then there will be Lord Lao."

The three of them laughed, and Jia She's little awkwardness disappeared.

Yang Mu began to talk about the key point of this return home—the imperial examination. The imperial examination system of this dynasty follows the previous dynasty. First of all, there must be an examination qualification. It is headed by the Xue family, so this dynasty does not prohibit merchants from participating in the imperial examination, but most of the knowledge after merchants is just a juren, even if the ancestors are smoked, there are not many voices to discuss.There is also an allusion to this. At that time, Xue Yao, the head of the Xue family, was intelligent since he was a child, and he was very good at reading. As a result, the previous court did not allow merchants to participate in the imperial examination. Xue Yao was angry and changed to the Taizu. The last emperor was filled with regret for this. If he had known this, he would have allowed the merchants to take the scientific examination, and then rewarded him with a small official. No, with Xue Yao's ability, he was more than enough to enter the cabinet!Therefore, in order to win over merchants and learn lessons, this is not prohibited.

The three of them are all descended from famous families, so they all have the qualifications.The imperial examination is divided into three levels, the provincial examination, the government examination and the palace examination.Once every three years, the township examination is scheduled for the beginning of October, the golden autumn season when there are many achievements. There are three exams. About [-] words, the main test is memory and whether the words are good-looking. Generally, there are no mistakes and you can pass.

If the characters look good and full, in addition to the usual hard practice, there are also the utensils used for this, especially the ink. Usually the candidates will make it themselves, not fake the hands of others.

The three of them don't have to worry about this, anyway, with Mr. Qian's help, everything will be prepared, but these three days have to be spent in the examination room, no one is waiting for them, and the environment of the examination room is not good. Candidates who are less frail and often sick fall ill as soon as they leave the examination room.

Yang Mu looked at Jia She's body and said: "The content of the exam is not difficult, but the environment is a bit bitter. In the exam room, each person has a cubicle. After the exam starts, it will be locked from the outside, and nothing will be opened. When the weather changes, it will be troublesome, so in addition to pens and inks, I also need to bring some silver charcoal fire. There is a small stove in the compartment, which can heat some meals. But I have never done these things. Money The sir has already spoken, the exam is less than a month away, the day after tomorrow, I will go to Mr. Qian to make up this lesson."

Wang Zisheng stroked his chin and said, "If you lock it from the outside, wouldn't you have to settle everything inside for three days? It's really like eating, drinking, and relaxing together." Hearing this, Jia She's expression changed. How bad it was, Yang Mu didn’t seem to notice, and said to himself, “If there’s nothing wrong, you’ll have to go through this. Don’t forget, there’s also the government exam? Except for the different content of the exam, basically The format is the same." There was a pause on purpose, "It's just three days turned into nine days, and it may be when the spring is cold and cold, tsk tsk tsk, if it catches up with Chunwei."

Jia She stammered and asked, "Nine days? In a small cubicle, this and this, and that too." Yang Mu knocked on Jia She with his folding fan, "There must be a corner door that fell down, see what's wrong with you." .”

Jia Amnesty rubbed his head, and pouted aggrievedly: "It's dirty enough, and without changing clothes, it's too hard to be confined inside for so many days, I can't stand it!" Wang Zisheng said: "So I started to adapt the day after tomorrow. , almost half a month."

Jia Amnesty listened to the two chattering, and felt that he was so pitiful that he had to suffer this crime.After thinking about it, it seems that everyone is going, and it is not too difficult.

A few people changed the subject, and Yang talked about the events of the past few days in detail, especially when Wang Zisheng had a glimpse of Jining that day, he actually came to visit Mr. Qian, "That person is not an ordinary person, his surname is Lin, The name is Hai, and the character is like Hai. It is considered to be a noble family. It will be the end of his life, but he has passed the provincial examination. This time he came back to serve his mother for fun. He is also the son of Mr. Qian’s family friend. When we went to see a guest, my cousin is quite embarrassing, staring at him for a long time, and made that Brother Lin angry." Jia She immediately looked at Wang Zisheng, "Ahem, it's all over." Wang Zisheng He picked up the teacup to cover it up, but he didn't hold it steady, and accidentally spilled a few drops on his body, which made the two of them make strange noises. Jia She said, "So that's the case, isn't it like sinking fish and geese closing the moon to shame flowers!" Yang Mu said solemnly: "How can it compare to this brother Lin, who is both talented and beautiful. In the future, he will not be able to ride a horse and parade through the streets. He will envy many people. If it doesn't get through, he will be like 'seeing to kill Wei Jie'." Coaxed, The two started laughing, Jia Amnesty was the most exaggerated, pointing at Wang Zisheng speechless, Wang Zisheng drank half of the tea, all sprayed on Yang Mu, one wave of laughter followed another, even the waiter The servant couldn't hold it anymore and hid.

After a long fight, it stopped. Wang Zisheng felt wronged in his heart. Who knew that the one he fell in love with was Tan Hualang. The shock on his face at that time, and the things deep in his memory rushed to his face. They were completely caught off guard, so they got this kind of consequences where they couldn't care about anything else, but that Lin Ruhai was really handsome, and coupled with his bookish air, it wouldn't be a bad thing if they got together again.
