Lin Ji's struggling life

On the day of Daiyu's birthday, many friends were invited to get together. Lin Ruhai provided her with a good venue to celebrate with her while avoiding the time when she invited people.Lin Daiyu ate the longevity noodles brought to her for half the price, with an egg nestled in the bowl.Although it is an extremely common material, it has a different taste and is warm.

After happily celebrating her birthday with her friends, and eating longevity noodles with her family, she went back to her room.With the help of half money, she unwrapped the presents sent by everyone.

The gift Lin Ji had prepared for her was already on her desk, a complete set of five-color porcelain produced in Jingdezhen, with colorful colors and exquisite patterns, which won her favor.She unwrapped the gifts of the others one by one, and returned flower swabs to them one by one to express her gratitude.

In fact, everyone is very concerned about Lin Daiyu's birthday. After this birthday, she will be old enough to be drafted, which means she can discuss marriage.The Lin family didn't let out any news, but many people came to ask.

The Lin family doesn't have a mistress now, and Lin Ji and his wife are not in the capital. Interesting people will naturally find a way.Several families were moved, and naturally they would think of the Lin family's in-laws.The Chen family was acquainted with the Zhang family, and Mrs. Chen came to the door even though Mrs. Xu was keeping a filial piety.

Mrs. Xu welcomed Mrs. Chen into her yard, had someone serve her tea, and then sat down to chat with her.When she just entered the door, she had already noticed that Mrs. Chen's visit this time should be nothing urgent.

"Why do you have time to come to me today, but what's the matter?" Mrs. Xu looked at Mrs. Chen and asked curiously.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Xu have known each other for many years, she has a bright and generous temperament, so naturally she will not try to be devious and directly explain her intentions. "Actually, I came to look for you today to ask you to help me find out if the girl from the Lin family is married?" She was really attracted to Lin Daiyu. shirk the past.Now that Lin Daiyu is finally looking forward to the age of 12, Mrs. Chen naturally has to act fast, for fear of being preempted by others.

She said with some embarrassment: "Don't blame me for being anxious, I really like this child, I want to ask, my brother Xuan's marriage has not been settled yet!"

When Xu Shi heard this, she was stunned.She was able to get along with Mrs. Chen, so she naturally had a similar temperament, and she didn't pretend to be with her. "That's a coincidence. I also like her very much, and I just want to make her for my second son who is not up to date."

"It's settled?!" Mrs. Chen slapped her thigh, feeling very regretful, she was really too slow!

"That's not true yet, the reply letter has just been delivered. Brother Ji said that it can't be finalized yet." Mrs. Xu didn't hide anything, she had a good relationship with the Lin family, and it was convenient for her to come and go.But this matter is really hot on her own, and the Lin family has no feedback.

Mrs. Xu also heard from Zarafeng'a that Lin Ji had a list with several candidates on it.Zhang Ruolin is naturally on the list, as to whether he can embrace the beauty, it depends on his own ability.

Mrs. Chen breathed a sigh of relief, but she was in the mood to joke, "I thought we were just congenial in temperament, but I didn't expect that we have the same vision." She said with a smile: "Why is it that you are so close to the water, it doesn't seem to be useful!"

This gave them a chance.

"Don't be complacent. I heard that Brother Shisan is also interested. If it involves the royal family, the Lin family should be cautious." Xu was not annoyed when she was teased, but rather proud. This proves that Daiyu is a good enough child.After all, she can be regarded as Daiyu's half husband, and she is naturally very pleased with herself.

Mrs. Chen was anxious when she heard this, "This matter can't be careless, a royal daughter-in-law is not easy to be." She likes Daiyu, and marrying the Chen family or the Zhang family is not a big problem in her opinion.With the current position of the Lin family, if they married the prince, the Lin family would have to enter.What's more, in her opinion, Lin Ji is not the kind of person who can sacrifice everything for power.

Mrs. Xu also had some headaches about this matter, she sighed, "We can't interfere with this matter, I just hope Brother Ji can arrange it." However, Mrs. Xu still has confidence in Lin Ji, Daiyu is still young, and the next draft is still two years away, so she is not in a hurry.

Mrs. Chen also nodded when she heard this. She was very envious of Zarafon'a being able to find a son-in-law like Lin Ji. Her own eldest daughter, Chen Chunai, was married to her natal family, so she was not worried.But the second daughter is approaching her age, and she and her husband have visited several houses but have not made a decision, I'm afraid it will not be easy.

Looking at Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Chen felt emotional, "It's still good for you. Mr. Zhang just stepped back like this and left his name, which is also beneficial." At least the emperor has a lot of preferential treatment for the Zhang family, and several children of the Zhang family are Very promising, I'm afraid I can get up again.

"What stupid things are you talking about? Okay, let's not talk about this. You are good, you only care about Zhang Luo's son's marriage, what are the girls in your family going to do?" Xu changed the subject without answering the question.

Mrs. Chen is even more troubled when talking about this matter, besides her family, Chun Ai, who is married, there are four girls in the family, two are fourteen and two are twelve.

Seeing Mrs. Chen's appearance, Mrs. Xu knew that this was a headache for her, "You have to search hard, try to settle it in the past two years, and let Mrs. Chen give you a note to avoid the election." The daughter of a high-ranking official unless the emperor If there is a will, or if the family expresses a strong will, otherwise they will not enter the palace or be assigned to the royal family.

The two looked at each other without saying a word, so they had to talk about other things.

After Mrs. Xu sent Mrs. Chen away, she sent someone to invite Lin Daiyu.In fact, she had mentioned this matter to Daiyu, maybe it was too vague, and Daiyu didn't seem to understand.

Now I come to her not to mention it again, but to ask Daiyu what she thinks.Everyone always has expectations for their own future. What Xu wants to know is what kind of life Daiyu wants to live in the future.

There is no way to know the content of this secret conversation, but after returning home, Lin Daiyu wrote a letter to Lin Ji.In the letter, she asked her brother not only about choosing a spouse, but also about her future life planning.She thought that Lin Ji should understand what she meant.

Life always goes on, no matter how many problems there are, we always have to face them.When Lin Ji received the letter, he was mobilizing at the academy.

After all, this Liupan Academy is his painstaking effort, so he naturally hopes to make it better.The children selected to take part in the children's birth test were gathered together, and the teacher explained the test process to them.When Lin Ji came, they were about to set off, and after saying a few words to give them some confidence, Lin Ji left.

The Tongsheng Examination is held in the government office, and those who rank among the best in the Tongsheng Examination will be awarded the title of scholar and participate in the provincial provincial examination.Therefore, the Tongsheng Examination is the beginning of the imperial examination and the beginning of everything.

The Liupan Academy run by Lin Ji is free to enter, and the students are mixed, and these people who come to take the exam are just for appearance.Every county, even the Pingliang Prefecture under his own jurisdiction, has government schools, and the students there are the ones who really aim at studying and never look back on the road of imperial examinations.

The invigilator sent by the Ministry of Rites was very polite to Lin Ji. Since Lin Ji had been watching, he quietly came over to have a chat.Signaling Lin Ji to come to the corner, he reminded in a low voice, "Master Lin, you should not stay in the examination room for too long, it will not benefit the students."

Lin Ji was stunned when he heard that, he looked at the students who were close to him with a very nervous expression.Standing here, unless he is a child with a particularly good psychological quality, he will be more or less nervous, which will also affect their exams.

"Thank you for the reminder!" Lin Ji saluted him and walked straight in.Through the corridor, I came to the school building to hang out.

After finally killing the time, Lin Ji stepped into the examination room.The two clerks who are collecting the papers don't care whether you have finished answering or not, they forcibly collect the papers, and then leave with the test papers, leaving only the students with different expressions.

After the county examination, it will be the hospital examination hosted by the senior Xuezheng.

On the day when the rankings were released, everyone paid special attention to the fact that there were 22 candidates in Liupan Academy, five were endowed students, and the rest were accretion students.Even so, everyone cheered and clamored to celebrate!

Nothing beats the first battle!

These 22 students are about to bid farewell to Liupan Academy and enter a prefectural school, and they will be able to take the provincial examination in a few days.

Seeing the rise of Liupan Academy, people who were still on the sidelines sent people to the academy one after another.These six academies are not enough, and branch schools are always possible.Many farmers were also moved, gritted their teeth, and planned to offer at least one.

Such achievements did not make Lin Ji dazzled. He was thinking about how to invite great Confucian scholars to come to Pingliang.Now Liupan Academy has gained a firm foothold in Pingliang, but after all, all of them are white bodies. What Lin Ji wants is to be like the Yuanshan Academy that he was in before.

Of course, it's still too early to say this, firstly, he has limited resources, and secondly, the location in Pingliang is average, although there have been celebrities, but not many.Just recovered from the chaos, the background is still a bit worse.

With an idea in mind, he naturally wants to put it into action.After reading Daiyu's letter in the study, after thinking about it, he wrote a few words back to Lin Ruhai.It can be said that Lin Ji and Daiyu talked about everything, and now that Daiyu is older, there is no need to hide many things.

Lin Ji explained his point of view to her in detail, the important matter of marriage really involved the future life style.For example, the family he chose, the Chen family is the eldest son, who will lead the family and establish a family, and the task in the future will definitely be heavy.But there are also advantages, that is, the weight is also heavy, and the power is in hand, and life will be more comfortable in the future.

Zhang's family is the second son, and Zhang Ruolin has a pleasant temperament and a transparent personality, so he will definitely be a good husband after marriage.

Although the thirteenth elder brother is the prince, there is no hope of seizing the heir for the time being, but he should be able to become a prince in the future.Of course, Prince Fujin naturally has heavy tasks, and there are many intrigues and great pressure.But marrying the past changes not only the status, but also the status.

Lin Ji gave Lin Daiyu an example, and also said his own attitude. This is Lin Daiyu's lifelong event, and she will manage her future life by herself.Now he can only give some suggestions and tell her about the situation she will face in the future, but he cannot choose for her.

Lin Ji also wrote to Lin Ruhai, hoping that he would pay more attention to Daiyu, and often tell her about the outside world, lest Daiyu be raised in a deep boudoir and be coaxed away in the future!
