[Comprehensive Wear] A good brother's life

After the hospital examination, Lin Huaiyu and his family moved to Zhuangzi and lived a leisurely rural life.

The brothers and sisters studied and studied in the morning, and wandered around Zhuangzi in the afternoon, picking wild flowers, digging wild vegetables, and fishing.Sometimes they also herd sheep and geese.Sometimes vegetables, flowers, weeding.In short, pastoral life is very fulfilling.

This year, because Lin Huaiyu was going to take the imperial examination, she didn't come to Zhuangzi to plant rice seedlings in April and May.In previous years, Lin Ruhai would bring Lin Huaiyu and his brother and sister to Zhuangzi to plant rice seedlings.The reason for doing this is mainly to let the brothers and sisters understand the difficulty of being a farmer.

Not only did Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu not object to going to the field to plant seedlings, on the contrary they were very active.However, it is precisely because they go to the fields to plant seedlings every year that the brothers and sisters deeply understand the difficulties of farmers, and they also cherish food very much.Although they have never wasted food before, they did not cherish food before, but now they have the mood to cherish every grain of food.

On this day, the brothers and sisters were wearing straw hats and coarse clothes, and they were growing vegetables in their own vegetable garden.

After the Dragon Boat Festival, the temperature is stable. Although it is hot, the sunlight is getting longer and stronger. At this time, you can grow light-loving and heat-resistant vegetables, such as cucumbers, pumpkins, loofahs, and leeks.

Lin Huaiyu was in charge of digging the ground, and Xiao Daiyu was in charge of sowing the seeds.It is not the first time for the brothers and sisters to grow vegetables, and both of them are very skilled in their movements.

Although it was morning, the weather was still very hot. The brothers and sisters were sweating from the heat just after working for a while, but the brothers and sisters were neither too hot nor too tired, and continued to grow vegetables seriously.

After the seeds were sown, the brothers and sisters took the watering can to water the newly sown seeds.After finishing their work, Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu still took paper and pen to record the situation of just sowing the seeds.Every time they finish planting vegetables or flowers, the siblings will record their growth.

In the past few years, the brothers and sisters have recorded the growth of many things, so they have a better understanding and proficiency in planting.

After planting vegetables, the siblings ran to raise silkworms to observe the growth of silkworm babies.

There is a mountain near their Zhuangzi, which is full of mulberry trees.The surrounding villagers, in addition to farming, also raise silkworms.In recent years, the weather in Yangzhou has been relatively smooth, whether it is food or silkworm rearing, it is quite good.

At this time, Emperor Qinglong, who was far away in the capital, had already obtained the answer sheets of Lin Huaiyu's county examination, government examination, and hospital examination.After reading it, he was shocked by Lin Huaiyu's answer.

Lin Huaiyu's answers to the county examination, government examination, and college examination papers were basically correct.Of the eight exams, none of the exams was deducted.Like the content in the Four Books and Five Classics, it is normal that there are no mistakes, after all, it is dead content in books.But things like scriptures and policies are not dead content, but very flexible, there is no uniform standard answer, and sometimes it depends on the appetite of the examiners who are marking the test papers.

There are very few candidates who do not have points deducted for classics, meanings and policy theory, but Lin Huaiyu managed to do so without being deducted points.His scriptures and strategies are very well written. It seems a little inaccurate to use the word "good" to describe it. It is more prepared to use the word "miao" to describe it.

Emperor Qinglong carefully looked at the policy theory written by Lin Huaiyu, and found that the policy theory he wrote was not only "wonderful", but also very "strange".This "oddness" is not strange oddness, but surprising oddness.Some of the viewpoints written by Lin Huaiyu are quite peculiar, but they are accurate to the point.

After reading all the theories answered by Lin Huai, Emperor Qinglong was very shocked, and even couldn't believe that this was written by a 13-year-old child.

In addition to being "wonderful" and "strange", the policy theory written by Lin Huaiyu is also very sophisticated and capable.His writing style does not bite the words, let alone use gorgeous rhetoric. The words are very ordinary and plain at first glance, but when they are connected into sentences, they are very sharp, as sharp as an arrow piercing the heart.The most important thing is that the policies and theories he wrote point directly to the center, which makes people feel deeply after reading it, and at the same time suddenly feel that "it's okay".

Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen were called to the imperial study room, and Emperor Qinglong handed them Lin Huaiyu's exam papers for them to take a good look.

These two people didn't read the content in the front of the examination paper, but directly turned to the back to read the policy theory written by Lin Huaiyu.After reading the policy theory written by Lin Huaiyu, the two praised "well written" without hesitation.

"Now I know why you value Lin Ruhai's son?" Emperor Qinglong said, picking up the teacup and drinking tea, "His son's policy is well written."

"Your Majesty, it should be more than good, right?" Ye Wenfu said with a smile, "Lin Huaiyu's policy writing is better than some officials."

Hearing Ye Wenfu's last sarcasm, Emperor Qinglong smiled helplessly: "If I hadn't known in advance that it was Lin Ruhai's son's test paper, I would have thought it was written by some experienced person." After speaking, he exclaimed again , "This style of writing really doesn't look like it was written by a 13-year-old kid."

"Brother Huai's words are more sophisticated and sophisticated. It's not like a 13-year-old kid wrote it, but a 50-year-old old man."

Song Xiuwen went on to say: "My writing style is not as spicy as this kid's." Song Xiuwen's writing style is of the flamboyant type, and his words are very flamboyant and romantic.

"Lin Ruhai's son is very thoughtful." After reading Lin Huaiyu's theory, Emperor Qinglong felt that the child's thinking was very strange. [Strange] is a commendatory word, not a derogatory one. "Lin Ruhai's son is very smart." From Lin Huaiyu's answer sheet, it can be seen that he is a smart and intelligent person.

Hearing Emperor Qinglong's praise of Lin Huaiyu, Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen glanced at each other, and then asked, "Your Majesty, since you think Lin Ruhai's son is smart, can you give him a chance to go to the Imperial College?"

Emperor Qinglong raised his eyebrows, and took a deep look at Ye Wenfu and the others: "Do you really think it would be good for Lin Ruhai's son to study in the Imperial College?"

No matter which dynasty it is in, Guozijian has always been the highest institution of learning.But the highest institution does not mean the best institution.Of course, Guozijian is the best school in the capital, whether it is a dignitary or an ordinary person, they all hope that their sons can study in Guozijian.

There are quite a few students who pass the Jinshi examination in the Guozijian every year, but there are no students who win the top prize, second place, or third place in the exam.The students who won the first prize, second place, and third prize in each palace examination are basically students from Jiangnan.

Compared with those well-known academies in the south of the Yangtze River, especially Jinling Academy, Guozijian seemed ordinary.Jinling Academy is the most famous academy in the south of the Yangtze River. Every time the number one scholar, the second place, and the best flower in the palace examination, there is one from Jinling Academy.

Another point is that Jinling Academy has a history longer than that of the Daqing Dynasty, with a history of hundreds of years.It was founded by a world-renowned great writer back then, in order to cultivate outstanding talents for the imperial court and cultivate outstanding literati for the world.

Compared with Jinling Academy, Guozijian is a younger brother.Furthermore, the relationship within the Guozijian is somewhat complicated.

Most of the students in the Guozijian came from the official families or princes and nobles in the capital.There are not many students from ordinary people's homes.

The children of these officials and nobles will automatically form a faction for the benefit of the family.That is to say, the students in the Imperial College will form gangs.

Few of these students came to the Imperial College to study for the sake of fame and fame, but to make friends and establish personal connections.

Those students from the families of ordinary people entered the Imperial College for the purpose of gaining fame, but after entering the Imperial College, they gradually forgot their original intentions and went to curry favor with those students from good backgrounds.

Although the Guozijian has a monthly exam system similar to modern schools, if the monthly exam is not good, you will be expelled from school, but the learning atmosphere of the Guozijian is still not as good as some academies in the south of the Yangtze River.

Emperor Qinglong knew that Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen wanted Lin Huaiyu to study in the Imperial College, but he thought it was unnecessary.

Before reading Lin Huaiyu's answers, Emperor Qinglong felt that Ye Wenfu and the others were exaggerating, thinking that Lin Huaiyu had no qualifications to study in the Imperial Academy, but after reading Lin Huaiyu's answer sheet, Emperor Qinglong felt that Lin Huaiyu's qualifications were very good, and it was a pity to let him study in the Imperial Academy up.

"What's the situation in the Imperial College, don't you two old fellows not understand?" Emperor Qinglong asked back, "Aren't you afraid that he will be affected by joining the Imperial College?"

Emperor Qinglong's words caused Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen to fall silent for a while.

"Your Majesty, what do you mean?"

"I don't think it's a good thing for Lin Ruhai's son to study in the Imperial College." Emperor Qinglong said, "If you want him to pass the six yuan exam, you can teach him yourself. There is no need for him to study in the Imperial College." The gentlemen are all educated people, but they are far worse than Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen.

Emperor Qinglong's words made sense, and Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen felt that their previous thoughts were ill-considered.

"Your majesty is wise, I wrote to Lin Ruhai, asking him to send Brother Huai to me, and I will teach Brother Huai myself." Before teaching Brother Huai intermittently, Ye Wenfu felt that he was not very good at teaching. There are regrets.Hearing what Emperor Qinglong said now, he felt that he could teach Brother Huai again, and this time he would teach Brother Huai very seriously and responsibly so that he could pass the Liuyuan exam.

"I intend to let Lin Ruhai go to Fujian."

"Fujian?" Song Xiuwen and Ye Wenfu showed surprised expressions when they heard this.

"It's time for the Fujian side to clear up." When Emperor Qinglong said this, his tone was understated, but his eyes were full of murderous intent.

Ye Wenfu and Song Xiuwen knew about the situation in Fujian, and they were not surprised when they heard Emperor Qinglong say that, but they didn't expect that Emperor Qinglong would let Lin Ruhai go to Fujian.

"Your Majesty, Lin Ruhai has gone to Fujian, what about Jiangnan?"

"Jiangnan is already collecting the net, and it will be wiped out next year. Otherwise, I would not have sent Lin Ruhai to Fujian." After Emperor Qinglong said this, his expression became gentle and kind again, as if the killing intent just now was an illusion. "Lin Ruhai will go to Fujian at the end of next year. It is not suitable for his two children to go to Fujian with him. You can write to let his son and daughter come to the capital."

"I will write a letter to Lin Ruhai when I get back today. When the weather cools down, I will ask him to send Brother Huai and the others to the capital." Lin Ruhai may not be able to return to Fujian this time, because the situation in Fujian is complicated after all. And dangerous.Thinking that Lin Huaiyu and his brother and sister would stay by his side for several years, Ye Wenfu's mood suddenly became very good.

A few days later, Lin Ruhai received a secret letter from Emperor Qinglong.

In the secret letter, Emperor Qinglong issued two orders.One is to let Lin Ruhai speed up the collection of the net, and all the nets will be collected by the middle of next year at the latest.The other is to let Lin Ruhai go to Fujian to take up his post at the end of next year.

Lin Ruhai received the secret letter from Emperor Qinglong on the front foot, and Ye Wenfu's letter on the back foot.

Ye Wenfu wrote in the letter that he wanted to teach Lin Huaiyu himself again, and wanted Lin Huaiyu to pass the Liuyuan exam.He also wrote in the letter that it was inconvenient for Lin Ruhai to go to Fujian to take Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu with him, so it was better to send the two children to him, and he would take good care of them.

After reading Ye Wenfu's letter, Lin Ruhai felt that sending Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu to his home was indeed a good choice.Moreover, Ye Wenfu and his wife took care of Lin Huaiyu and the two of them, so he felt at ease, so he would not have to worry about going to Fujian to work.

However, if you send Lin Huaiyu and the others to the capital, you cannot avoid the Jia family.It would not be appropriate if Lin Huaiyu and his brother and sister lived directly in Ye Mansion instead of Jia's.However, Lin Ruhai was worried about letting Lin Huaiyu and his brother and sister live in Jia's house.

Lin Ruhai thought for a while and decided to let Lin Huaiyu and the others recognize Ye Wenfu and his wife as adoptive fathers and adoptive mothers, so that Lin Huaiyu and the others could live in Ye's mansion openly and aboveboard when they went to the capital, instead of staying in Jia's house.

In the evening, Lin Ruhai went directly from Yamen to Zhuangzi.

Lin Ruhai didn't rush to live in Zhuangzi every day, after all Zhuangzi was far away from Yangzhou city.If he lived in Zhuangzi every day, it would be very inconvenient to go to the Yamen.

In the evening, Lin Ruhai rushed to Zhuangzi and had dinner with the two children first.After dinner, the family went for a walk outside Zhuangzi to digest food.

After finishing eating, Lin Ruhai called Lin Huaiyu and the others to the study to talk about going to the capital.

"Your Uncle Ye wants you to go to the capital, and he wants to personally teach you again so that you can pass the Liuyuan exam."

Lin Huaiyu, who was drinking tea, heard the words "six yuan in the exam", and was so shocked that he choked a mouthful of tea into his throat, and coughed violently: "cough cough cough..."

While patting her brother on the back, Xiao Daiyu asked with concern, "Brother, are you alright?"

Lin Huaiyu coughed for a while before stopping, "Father, I heard you right, Uncle Ye wants me to pass the six-yuan exam?"

Lin Ruhai nodded slightly: "You heard me right, your Uncle Ye wants you to pass the six-yuan exam."

Lin Huaiyu: "!!!!!!"

After being stunned for a while, he came back to his senses and said with a wry smile: "Uncle Ye, what's wrong, why does he suddenly want me to pass the six-yuan exam?" Uncle Ye dared to think about the six-yuan exam. "Who gave Uncle Ye the confidence to make him think that I can pass the Liuyuan exam?" It was terrible, who confused Uncle Ye and made him think that he could pass the Liuyuan exam.

"Hisself." Lin Ruhai looked at his son's horrified appearance, and said amusedly, "He thinks that if he teaches you well, he can make you pass the six-yuan exam."

Lin Huaiyu: "..." Uncle Ye is really confident.

"I didn't expect Uncle Ye to have such confidence in me." Lin Huaiyu wondered if he hadn't seen him for a few years, and thought that if he taught him, he could pass the Liuyuan exam. "However, I don't have confidence in myself. I don't think I can pass the Liuyuan exam." As far as he knows, no one has passed the Liuyuan exam since the founding of the Daqing Dynasty. Even in the previous dynasty, there was only one person who passed the Liuyuan exam. .Also, in the history of Huaxia, there were very few people who passed the six yuan exam.

"Father, Uncle Ye saw that I passed the junior three-yuan exam, so he thought I would definitely pass the college-three-yuan exam?" There is a huge difference between the small three-yuan and the big-san-yuan.It is not too difficult to pass the small three yuan test, but it is very difficult to pass the university three yuan test.Not to mention passing the six-yuan exam, there are very few people who have passed the college-three-yuan exam.

"He thinks you may be admitted to the university-three-yuan."

When Lin Huaiyu heard this, he couldn't laugh or cry for a while: "Uncle Ye thinks too highly of me." What did he do to give Uncle Ye the illusion that he could pass the university entrance exam?He hasn't seen Uncle Ye in the past few years, how could his old man think that he would pass the university entrance exam.

"Don't want to go to the capital to study with your Uncle Ye?"

Lin Huaiyu shook his head and said, "It's good to be able to study with Uncle Ye again, but Uncle Ye is in the capital... I don't want to go to the capital for the time being." If he goes to the capital, he can't avoid Jia's house, and he doesn't want to live in Jia's house anymore.

Lin Ruhai looked at his son and daughter, and his expression suddenly became serious: "My father will go to Fujian to take up his post at the end of next year."

"Go to Fujian?" Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu looked shocked.

"The emperor asked me to take office in Fujian at the end of next year." Lin Ruhai continued, "It is inconvenient to take you to Fujian, and it is not suitable for you to follow me to Fujian." The situation in Fujian is complicated and dangerous, and it is dangerous for him to take office in Fujian.If you take two children to Fujian, the two children will also be in danger. "You go to the capital, go to your Uncle Ye, I will be very relieved."

"Father, my grandparent's house is in the capital, and my sister and I cannot avoid it when we go to the capital." Lin Huaiyu frowned slightly and said, "You know what's going on with my grandparent's house, my sister and I don't want to live in my grandparent's house. "

"I know, so I plan to let you recognize Lao Ye as a foster father, what do you think?"

Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu said without thinking, "Yes!"

"Okay, I will write to tell Lao Ye." Lin Ruhai said with a smile, "Lao Ye and the others are your adoptive parents, so you can live in Ye's house in a legitimate way, instead of Jia's house."

"Father, if that's the case, then my sister and I are willing to go to the capital."

Xiao Daiyu nodded and said obediently, "I am very willing to go."

"Okay, let's make this decision. When autumn comes, you brothers and sisters will go to the capital."

"Father, you won't go to Fujian until the end of next year. It won't be too late for my sister and I to go to the capital next year. There is no need to rush to the capital at this time." Lin Huaiyu knew in his heart that Lin Ruhai was transferred to Fujian for his post, and he might not come from Fujian for several years. return.

"I have to do some things before I go to Fujian. You brothers and sisters staying in Yangzhou will distract me." Lin Ruhai said seriously, "When autumn comes, you will go to the capital, so I can work with peace of mind."

Lin Ruhai said this very calmly, but Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu were very shocked when they heard it.

"Father, what you are going to do is dangerous?" It seems that my father wants to help the emperor clean up the prince's faction.

Seeing the worry and uneasiness on the faces of his son and daughter, Lin Ruhai smiled reassuringly at them: "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

"Father, must my sister and I go?"

Lin Ruhai's tone became very severe: "We must go!"

"Okay, in autumn, my sister and I will go to the capital." It seems that what my father is going to do is very dangerous.Although he was worried about his father staying in Yangzhou alone, if he and his sister stayed in Yangzhou, not only would he not be able to help his father, but it would also cause trouble for his father.

Seeing that his son agreed, Lin Ruhai was relieved.

"Don't worry, I'll be fine." Ever since he was reborn, he had started planning.This bureau has been arranged for several years, and it is time to close the network.In order to collect the net properly, he has done a lot of preparatory work so as not to put himself in danger.

Lin Huaiyu nodded heavily: "I believe you will not abandon me and my sister!"

When Lin Ruhai heard this, he said with a very solemn expression: "As a father, I will never abandon you."

"With father's words, we can rest assured."

Lin Ruhai didn't say anything more, and asked Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu to go back to the room to rest.

"Brother, are we really going to the capital?" Although Xiao Daiyu didn't know what happened, she knew that her father would be in danger.

"Didn't you say you missed Aunt Ye very much, don't you want to go to the capital to meet Aunt Ye?"

"I want to see Aunt Ye, but I can't bear to part with Daddy." Xiao Daiyu's eyes were full of uneasiness, "Brother, if we leave, will Daddy really be okay?"

"If we don't leave and stay in Yangzhou, it will only make father more dangerous." Lin Huaiyu said seriously, "if we leave, we won't threaten father, and father can go about his business with peace of mind." Father wants to deal with the Prince's faction Those who belong to Prince Li will definitely not be caught without a fight, and will definitely try their best to resist.If they stay in Yangzhou, they will become my father's weakness. When the people from Prince Li's group catch them and threaten my father, then what my father has done all these years will be in vain.

Xiao Daiyu instantly understood Lin Huaiyu's meaning, "Brother, I'm worried about my father."

"We have to trust our father, he will be fine for us." Lin Huaiyu said, and suddenly sighed, "I didn't expect that Uncle Ye, no, he will be called Yifu in the future, and he wants me to pass the Liuyuan exam."

"Brother, the adoptive father thinks you can do it, which means that you are really likely to pass the six-yuan exam." Her brother said before that she failed the junior three-yuan exam, but in the end she passed the junior three-yuan exam.Xiao Daiyu sometimes felt that her brother was too modest.

Hearing Xiao Daiyu's tone, Lin Huaiyu raised his eyebrows slightly, and said in disbelief: "Sister, you don't think I can pass the exam, do you?"

Xiao Daiyu nodded and said, "I think brother, you can pass the exam." My brother said that he failed the six-yuan exam, but he will definitely pass the exam again. "Brother, you have to believe in yourself!"

"Other things, I believe in myself very much, but I don't believe in myself when I pass the Liuyuan exam." Lin Huaiyu wondered what he did to make his adoptive father and sister think that he could pass the Liuyuan exam?

Lin Huaiyu and Xiao Daiyu returned to their room, while Lin Ruhai stayed in the study to write a secret letter to Emperor Qinglong

After Lin Ruhai finished writing the official business in the secret letter, he told Emperor Qinglong that he wanted his two children, Ye Wenfu and his wife, to be foster parents, and asked Emperor Qinglong to witness.

With the testimony of Emperor Qinglong, when Lin Huaiyu and the others recognize Ye Wenfu and his wife as adoptive fathers and adoptive mothers, it will be made public. At that time, the Jia family will not be able to say anything.
