[Red House] Ban'er's Road to Imperial Examination

As soon as Wang Yue entered the room, he saw his father and two servants sent by Jia's mansion sitting on the kang drinking tea. He smiled and lifted the bundle to the kang, opened the bundle and said, "This is my own piece of paper." Xin Xin, although the price of this thing is cheap, it is still a bit of a novelty, and it is good to give it to uncles and aunts to play, at least it can be amusing."

After hearing this, the two servants leaned over to take a look, and saw a bundle of small bamboo trinkets. They were overjoyed immediately, not to mention that this is the Wang family's little girl who is loved by the old lady, all the girls, and the second master Bao. The things that the master gave, these things alone are enough for the girl and the second master to like.

The girl and the second master have never seen anything valuable before, so if you really give them something like gold, silver and jade, they don't necessarily take it seriously. Although this bamboo thing is worthless, it is a rare item in their eyes.

If you take it back, you will definitely be rewarded by the old ladies, girls, and the second master. Those rewards may not be too much for respectable nuns and girls, but for them, the young men who are responsible for driving the men when they go out are already a lot. A large sum of money, let alone being rewarded by the old lady and the others, is definitely a very dignified thing.

If they were more clever in their mouths, they could win the favor of Second Master Bao and be transferred to him to listen to him, then they would be prosperous.

But in the blink of an eye, the two thought a lot in their hearts, and they immediately became more grateful to the young master of the Wang family who gave them a good chance, and there were smiles on their faces: "This is the filial piety of the young master. I don't care whether things are expensive or not, but I'm all in one mind, don't worry, my brother, when we two brothers are in front of the old lady, the wife, the girl and the second master Bao, we will definitely say a few more good things for the young master."

"Then thank you both."

Not to mention how the two young servants won the favor of Mrs. Jia, Mrs. Wang, and Baoyu and others after they returned to Jia's mansion with the gift from Wang Yue, and how they got the reward from the master. Opportunity was transferred to a job with lucrative work and leisure time for a month. It was just that after Wang Yue returned home, he would send away all the relatives and friends who came to his house to inquire about his and grandma's visit to Rongguo Mansion, and then completely abandoned them. After doing mundane things, I immerse myself in reading and painting.

Reading a book is not a one-day job, and that painting also requires careful painting, and it cannot be done in a hurry.

Therefore, Wang Yue spent a few days to roughly describe the characters properly, and then revised them carefully. He spent one or two hours a day on painting, and spent the rest of his time on reading, without delay in both things.

In addition to studying and drawing behind closed doors at home, every three to five days Wang Yue would go to the private school in the town to listen to the teacher and receive his homework from him, and then turn in his homework and listen to Mr. Hou Comments, check for omissions and make up for vacancies, and prepare for the next government test.

In addition, during the two months he was preparing for the exam, Wang Yue went to Rongguo Mansion twice, not for anything else, but to ask the gentlemen Jia Zhengyang of Rongguo Mansion for their homework.

Although most of these cleanups supported by Jia Zheng were hopeless in the exam, it didn't matter, they couldn't get a vacancy from the officials, so they could only come to Rongguo Mansion to be cleanups, coaxing Jia Zheng every day, as a way of doing things for them. born.

But they all have a certain level, otherwise they would not be able to stand out from the crowd of competitors and get this high-paying and leisurely job.

Moreover, these Qingkes are all from Juren background and have rich experience in the imperial examination field. Facing a small government examination, they are not easy to catch.

Knowing that Wang Yue is a relative of Jia's mansion, and is highly valued by Jia Zheng, Xiao Xiaoxiao is talented and intelligent, and he must have a bright future in the future. Leaving one more way out is to please the favor of the employer. Naturally, Wang Yue's advice is given to him without reservation.

And they sometimes talk about things that need attention in the examination room, which Wang Yue has no chance to know. Although the teachers in the private school try their best to teach them homework, most of the secrets in the examination room like this will be left to kowtow. Cha Guo's direct disciples or disciples of the same family, disciples like them will not teach.

As for Jun Bowen, he will probably hear some things about the examination room from his elders, but the relationship between the two is not good yet. Jun Bowen will specifically tell him some things he heard from his elders.

The last time Jun Bowen took a seat for him in the exam, it was easy, it didn't take much effort, and he could make him owe a favor, so he would do it naturally.

But in the government test, the two of them didn't have the luck to meet each other, even if they met, they were still competitors on the field, and it would be great if they didn't stumbling each other, so how could they expect him to be able to meet each other? Increase leverage for competitors.

But Wang Yue knows that exams are a matter of luck. Although a solid foundation is the guarantee of getting high scores, it doesn't mean that if you study well in ordinary times, you will definitely do well in the exam.

Whether the topic is right or not is one reason. Whether the preparations are complete during the test, and whether the sitting position is good, these may affect the candidate's mood, and then affect the test score.

Except for Wang Yue's father who was born as a Jinshi, the next two generations of the Wang family have never been educated and become officials. Naturally, they can't help with this kind of thing. Originally, Wang Yue just went to Rongguo Mansion with the attitude of giving it a try. After all, Jia Zheng I said before that I can come to ask for advice at any time, so naturally I need to have a thick skin in order to do well in the exam.

Unexpectedly, what Jia Zheng said was not polite words, he not only welcomed him warmly, but also devoted himself to his advice. If Wang Yue didn't stop him, Jia Zheng would clean up a yard for him in Jia's mansion, so that He is studying at Jia's house.

Everything about studying is going according to plan, and things are going well, and you will feel that time passes quickly. In a blink of an eye, it is already the beginning of April, and the government exam is coming again.

Early in the morning, Wang Gou'er and Liu Shi got up early at the usual time. April is the season when spring returns to the earth and the vegetation is exuberant. The wheat in the field also begins to grow wildly, but at the same time, the weeds also begin to grow. Spread in the ground.

At this time, there were no herbicides, so weeding had to be done manually. Wang Gou'er and Mrs. Liu had been working in the fields for several days, and they were very tired. Fortunately, Grandma Liu helped take care of the livestock at home and helped with housework. , they are lighter.

The food at home was almost ready, so Wang Gou'er and Mrs. Liu went to work in the field for a whole morning. They estimated that it was almost time, so they walked home with their hoes on their shoulders.

When they arrived at the door of the house, they saw a carriage parked outside the house. The two of them looked carefully and found that this carriage was exactly the carriage of Jia's mansion.

Wang Yue went to Rongguo Mansion several times, and every time he went home, Jia Mansion sent a car to take him back. He went back and forth several times, and the Wang family was already familiar with it.

The husband and wife glanced at each other, quickened their pace, walked back to the house in a few steps, and saw Grandma Liu sitting on the kang, greeting them for dinner.

It's just the most common porridge, pickles, burritos and salted duck eggs, but what the two boys eat is extremely sweet.

"Fuwang, Laicai, why are you two here?"

Wang Gou'er took off his coat, washed his hands in the wooden basin brought by Wang Qing'er, and asked while washing, no longer the politeness he had when he first saw him.

"Master asked us two brothers to pick up my brother for the exam!!"

The two young servants wiped their mouths, and replied with a smile: "This time I can see that the master really values ​​the young master, Brother Wang, your family's good days are coming!!

Ignoring the flattery of the two, Wang Gou'er only cared about matters related to his son: "Take the board and go to Jia's mansion? What kind of regulations is this?"

"Isn't this a government test? You are going to take the test in the capital city. My master said that he happened to have a yard next to the test room, so let's come and pick me up and let him prepare for the test there."

The author has something to say: Sometimes I really don’t know what those writers at the starting point think, they insist on giving the protagonist a class beauty or school beauty who has been secretly in love with for many years, so the protagonist reverses his previous inferiority complex and starts chasing beauties as soon as he is reborn .Perhaps this setting is to show the protagonist's deep affection?But if you are affectionate, you will always be affectionate. If the stallion is a stallion from the beginning, anyway, everyone is used to the stallion at the beginning of the article, but at the beginning, the protagonist is playing the sign of affection, and the protagonist does what he wants to chase the beauty. Later, the protagonist develops. He never refuses the self-recommended pillow seats of beauties from all walks of life, and at the same time hides it from the main palace, it is simply more disgusting than a stallion! !
