[Comprehensive wear] Baiwei life

Wang Xiucai was a very serious person. When he said that he wanted to write questions to test Lin Ze's knowledge, he did not ask questions verbally, but issued a whole set of test papers in a serious manner.

After that, I found a place to look through the books I bought in the book shop this time, and I was also the invigilator by the way.

Lin Ze didn't feel nervous at all. As a person who has experienced countless major and minor exams, exams are commonplace, as simple as eating and drinking, especially the set of questions given by Wang Xiucai is really not too difficult. Issued for candidates who want to take the county test.

The only thing to pay attention to is the handwriting. A person who has only read books for three years can have neat handwriting, but if the handwriting is chic and elegant and has a style of its own, then it is too problematic, and it is difficult not to arouse suspicion.

Fortunately, since Lin Ze came to the bookstore, he has copied many books and sold them for money. He has always deliberately made his handwriting look dull. The test paper really didn't take long.

At least when Lin Ze handed in the paper, he didn't miss the flash of surprise in Wang Xiucai's eyes.

"That's it, how do you feel? Do you still want to take the county test?" Wang Xiucai took the answer sheet while talking.

The font is still quite neat. It can be seen that it has been practiced hard before, but the craftsmanship is too heavy. Obviously, it has not received much guidance. It is a pity.

Continue to look down, this pity has become a sigh, full of ingenious fonts, but it can't hide the solid foundation and aura of the article.

For scholars, the most important thing is two things, hard work and aura. The mountain of books has roads and diligence. Even if you are a genius, if you don't study hard, you will become the next Fang Zhongyong sooner or later.

But compared to hard work, aura is even more valuable. Some people are born without this aura, and some people even have aura in reading, but most of them are wiped out in the process of reading.

Therefore, although there are many scholars in this world, there are too few people who can write beautiful articles that will last forever. Wang Xiucai knows that he is not such a person, and he is born without that aura.

But this does not mean that he has no appreciation level, nor does it mean that he does not yearn for beautiful articles full of aura.

Of course, the person in front of him has only read the book for three years. Although it can be seen that he has been working hard in private, it is just that although the written article has aura, it is still far from the splendid article.

Wang Xiucai really didn't expect it, but just went around the bookstore and found a piece of rough jade.

Teaching cannot be taught. If such a good seedling is put in his own hands, he is afraid that it will be ruined by teaching.

However, now he is still able to help.

"This county exam, I'll be your guarantor. If you have any questions about learning, you can ask me anytime. I live in Liuxiang in the north of the city. You can find out when you go there."

In fact, Lin Ze has already inquired, confirmed Wang Xiucai's character, and also understood Wang Xiucai's character, which is why he made such a show today. Otherwise, he would not be rash and someone is helping him Guaranteed.

Lin Ze thanked Wang Xiucai again and again, "If it weren't for your help, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to take the county exam this year. Regardless of whether I can pass the exam, you are my benefactor."

To be honest, it was a certain risk to be a guarantee for the candidates. He had no relatives or reasons with Wang Xiucai, and he had no relationship with Wang Xiucai before.

Lin Ze said this to his family when he went back that day, "Wang Xiucai from Liuxiang in the north of the city thought that I could go to the county test and was willing to come forward to guarantee me. I have been reading and copying books in the bookstore during this time , learned a lot, since I have this opportunity, I think I should give it a try.”

Lin Shi didn't respond, and he didn't even express his opinion. For him, before the separation, he listened to his father, and after the separation, he listened to his son.

It is enough to be obedient, and he is at ease in his heart, and he does not need to think about other things.

Mrs. Li and Mrs. Huang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other in blank dismay. Their son and husband were going to take the county examination. Going to participate in the county test, there is no doubt that there was a thunder on the ground, and it exploded.

It wasn't long before the family moved to the city, and they lived in the west of the city. How could they know that Wang Xiucai went to Liu Lane in the north of the city, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't think Lin Ze was lying.

The title of Xiucai is still very useful sometimes. The reason why the two of them hesitated and could not make up their minds was because even Xiucai felt that Lin Ze could go to the county for the exam. It doesn't matter a few months of work, and it doesn't matter how much money you spend.

But if it doesn't happen, all the time and money will be wasted.

Li Shi gritted her teeth. She never felt that her son was inferior to the children of the second bedroom. They are all above average, and when they do well in the exam, they can even be ranked in the top three.

If the old man could have kept his son in school, he might be a scholar now.

This matter has always been a pain point in Li Shi's heart, and it also made her hate the old man. Now that the child wants to take the exam, he should go. Anyway, the family still has 30 acres of land, and it is difficult to live in the county. At worst, I will go back to my hometown to farm.

"Then let's give it a try. During this period of time, you should prepare well at home and ask the host if they can agree to let you stay at home for a while."

Mrs. Huang also expressed her opinion, "I just took over a large embroidery job recently, and after the embroidery is done, I can get several taels of silver in wages. Let's go to the county to try it out, and give our son a head start. "

Lin Ze knew his own situation. Even if he took the county exam with his eyes closed, he would definitely pass it. There were still several months before the exam, and he couldn't just prepare for the exam at home for these few months.

It doesn't matter if the condition of the family is good, but the fact is not. The land in my hometown is rented out, but the rent can only be collected after the autumn harvest next year. The total money in the family does not exceed 50 taels.

The wages he received in the book shop were the main income of the family. If it suddenly disappeared, his father has always been big-hearted and would definitely not think about it. The son is young and doesn't understand these things, but his mother and his wife On the other side, it is inevitable that you have to work hard and think about it, and it is easy to be burdened.

"There are a lot of books in the book store, but there are not many customers throughout the day, and it is relatively quiet. If you encounter problems, you can ask the people who came to buy books. It is much more convenient than reading at home, so there is no need to go back. If you come to prepare for the exam at home, it is also fine at the bookstore." Lin Ze said.

It's not the time to go home and enjoy life, let's talk about it someday after passing the Jinshi exam.

Her son had plans of her own, Li Shi didn't say much, and to be honest, she didn't think her son was stupid, nor did she think that her son didn't have the talent for reading, but after all, he only went to school for three years, and there was a gap in between. After so many years, I don't know how much I can remember from those three years, so Li didn't have much confidence in his son's county test.

It would be the best not to delay the work in the book shop. After all, it is really hard to find such a suitable job without hard work. If my son fails the county exam, he can continue to work in the book shop. Working anywhere is much easier than when I was in my hometown.

The mother-in-law agreed, and the daughter-in-law would naturally not disagree. Although the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law have very different personalities, they still agree in many ways, whether it is the separation of the family before, but now they are participating in the county examination.

The most troublesome conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in other families does not exist here.

If you want to say that you are at odds with the family, it is Lin Shi. Except for the young grandson, the family members are more or less resentful towards him, and his personality is so... It's hard to say, why? He is obedient enough when he is alive, but he completely regards himself as an invisible person at other times.

The sense of presence is really not strong, except when it comes to going to the room.

One month before the Chinese New Year, Lin Shi began to think about going back to his hometown, and finally went back, not only to stay for a longer period of time, but also to buy more things for his parents.

Of course, Lin Shi didn't have a single copper coin in his hand, so he had to tell his son what he wanted to buy, and when his son agreed, his wife just bought it with the money.

It can be said that the food chain of the big house after the separation is completely different from the previous one.

Lin Ze really didn't want to get used to his father's temper, let alone being in the room.

"The few houses in our hometown are almost empty. There is nothing you want. You can't move everything back. You can move back after the Chinese New Year. Besides, you are not in charge of the house. You don't know the price of firewood, rice, oil and salt. Move to the county seat After we come here, we have to spend money on everything, including the firewood, and we have to buy fruits and vegetables in the market. Without the rent of our house, we have to spend a lot of money every month, and money is tight Baba, where can I buy good tobacco and tea leaves for Grandpa, I know Father is filial, but we have to do what we can..."

Not to mention that there is no need to slap a swollen face to pretend to be a fat person, even if it is really a fat person, there is no need to bleed to the bed.

According to Lin Ze, one must go back to his hometown during the Chinese New Year. After all, he lives in the county town, and it’s not how far away he can’t make it home, but it’s enough to stay for a day or two, and New Year’s Eve is a day , New Year's Day is a day.

It's natural to buy gifts for the upper house, but there's really no need to buy too many, meaning, it's enough to save face, but his father still thinks about his son's filial piety, in fact, no matter before the separation, After the separation, Dafang has long been out of mind to keep up with Fang.
