Amnesty's daily life

In good conscience, it would be a lie for Jia Zheng to say that he was not moved by what Twelve said.However, apart from his heartbeat, Jia Zheng felt more pain in his cheeks.

——This word is too familiar!

"Cong'er, don't learn from your father in the future, okay?" Jia Zheng said with a distorted expression, covering his cheeks.

"My father also said similar things? Then what are you worried about, Second Uncle?" Twelve was a smart man, and he understood what Jia Zheng meant by blinking his eyes.It's just that, he wondered instead, although in his opinion, his father was stupid and idiot, but no matter what he said, his reputation was pretty good, and he shouldn't be able to do anything to destroy his promise.

Jia Zheng showed hesitation, perhaps because of his high moral character, he did not deceive Twelve after all, and said what was in his heart: "...I am afraid that you will make trouble when the time comes."

In fact, Jia Zheng was not very worried about Jia Amnesty breaking his promise, provided that no one forced Jia Amnesty.Of course, what is certain now is that La Shuxian has no opinion on who will be given the quota of Guozijian students, but there are still twelve things here!If Twelve was crying and clamoring for the quota of the Imperial College, with Jia She's love for Yao'er, he might rather bear the infamy of breaking the promise, and he would definitely give the quota to Twelve.At that time, even if Jia Zheng had reason, but because of his empty words, he might have to hold his nose and admit it in the end.

After hearing Jia Zheng's explanation, Twelve's face immediately lit up.

"That's good! Let's do it like this! If you don't adopt the second sister to our family, second uncle, I'll grab my father's thigh later, crying and yelling that he must give me the quota of the Imperial College. Hahahaha, look What are you going to do!" Twelve laughed so much that he held his stomach and looked convulsed.Brother Lian at the side saw him, hurried over to rub his belly, and looked back and forth at Jia Zheng and Twelve with an unsure face.

Twelve simply smiled and said to Brother Lian: "Brother, later on, you can give me the quota of the Imperial College Supervisor, okay?"

"What's that?" Brother Lian wondered.

"It's the quota to study in the Imperial College. Our family has a quota, which should be given to you by the elder brother, but if the elder brother is willing to give it to me, then it will be mine. By the way, I remember that my father gave up the quota for the supervising students back then. I gave it to my second uncle." Twelve didn't bother to say it too clearly, after all, it was too troublesome to explain the number of students in the Imperial College, so he just asked for it.

"Okay!" Brother Lian still didn't quite understand it, but he vaguely understood that it was about reading and learning. Thinking of the past Twelve, he often cheated the Four Treasures of the Study from him, so he thought it was similar objects. , Without even half a moment's hesitation, he agreed.

Jia Zheng wanted to cry but had no tears.

What does it mean to lift a rock and shoot yourself in the foot, this is it! !

"Second Uncle, have you considered it?" Twelve smiled with crooked eyebrows, and there were two small dimples on both cheeks, which looked extraordinarily cute.It's a pity that in Jia Zheng's view, he is as hateful as Jia She.

As a result, Jia Zheng fell into a dilemma.

In all fairness, Jia Zheng was willing to adopt Sister Ying to the eldest family. Even if there was no such deal, he would be happy to be a good person just because his elder brother had no daughter in his house.His conduct in life is firstly loyalty, secondly filial piety, and thirdly brotherhood.Of course, as in the past, Jiamu competed with Jia Amnesty, he would definitely stand on Jiamu's side without hesitation.But if it is about children, he is willing to give in a step.

But Aunt Zhao...

Looking back on these days, Aunt Zhao pretended to be strong in front of him, but she often wept in a low voice behind her back, just to welcome her sister?Speaking of which, this matter started in the first month of the lunar year, Dafang had just made a statement about adopting and welcoming his sister, when he turned around, he saw Aunt Zhao crying blood behind her back.Although it was just a common house, Jia Zheng privately believed that people's hearts are made of flesh, so he took the child away from the biological mother abruptly, and most importantly, Aunt Zhao had already lost her fertility.Although even if Sister Ying was not adopted, Aunt Zhao could not raise her herself, but after all, Sister Ying was still the concubine of the Second Household. If she was adopted, she would have nothing to do with the whole Second Household.

"Cong'er, how about I adopt Sister Yuan to your family?" Jia Zheng asked tentatively.

Rao Twelve claimed to be well-informed, but he was still quite frightened by these words.At this moment, he deeply doubted whether Jia Zheng was out of his mind?Although it is true that the sons of the first son are adopted, but who would replace the daughter of the concubine with the daughter of the first son?Besides, isn't Jia Zheng afraid that Mrs. Wang will explode?

In fact, Twelve thought about it.Jia Zheng was not reluctant to part with his daughter, but felt unable to explain to Aunt Zhao.If Aunt Zhao made a fuss like crazy today and pissed him off, it would be nothing.Unfortunately, Aunt Zhao secretly cried behind his back, and had trouble sleeping and eating, which made him feel guilty.On the contrary, if it was Sister Yuan, he would have nothing to feel guilty about.Firstly, besides Sister Yuan and Brother Zhu, Mrs. Wang has under her knees, and secondly, Mrs. Wang is in good health, and she will have children in the future.

I have to say that different brain circuits really can't communicate.Fortunately, Twelve didn't want to understand Jia Zheng's thoughts at all. He just insisted that he would bring sister Ying over to make a deal, and nothing else would be discussed.

This time, Jia Zheng was completely stumped.Until the carriage stopped at the gate of Rongguo Mansion, Jia Zheng still couldn't think of a proper solution.In desperation, he had no choice but to lead Brother Lian and Twelve to Rongqing Hall first.

The Rongqing hall was very lively.

Jia's mother had already been waiting eagerly, which was different from Jia She's expectation. Although she was extremely partial to Jia Zheng, she was not so paranoid that she would not see Dafang Hao.Of course, if the big house depends on Nala Shuxian's natal family, she will definitely not be happy.But if she relied on her eldest son, Jia She, it would be a great thing.It's just that she also understood that the road to the imperial examination was not so easy, and when Jia Zheng came back, she hurriedly asked.

"What's the matter? She'er entered the examination room? When will the results be released?"

"Old lady, usually the Qiu Wei releases the rankings between the first and third days of September, and this year it shouldn't be wrong." Even though Jia's mother had tried to hide her expectation on the surface, Jia Zheng could see it, and his heart became more and more serious at the moment. The five flavors of the hair are mixed.

"Okay." After all, Jia Mu knew that there was no need to rush, so she let it go slowly.

At this time, a chubby little figure walked over, grinned and said, "Brother! Brother!" But it was sister Ying who was almost one and a half years old.I don't know if this child is too fat, or just plain stupid. Usually, children start talking when they are about one year old, but until now she can only utter single words, and the most clear one is the word "brother".

At that moment, brother Lian went up to greet him happily, but was immediately pushed away by sister Ying with a look of disgust.

Brother Lian watched Sister Ying move closer to Twelve, and said with a bitter face, "Second Sister, why does she like Cong'er? Obviously, I am much prettier than Cong'er. By the way, is it possible?" Is it because Cong'er has more meat?"

Twelve Eyes threw the knife at Brother Lian, and then ran away from Sister Ying's side in a slippery manner.Poor sister Ying, she can barely walk, but she falls in three steps, and she will fall down when touched.Although Twelve was just running away and didn't really touch her, but a gust of wind blew by, and Sister Ying swayed from side to side for a while, then fell down and sat on the ground with a plop.

Nala Shuxian and Mrs. Wang, who were sitting at the bottom of Jia's mother, laughed. There were thick blankets on the left and right sides of the floor, and Yingjie would fall down more than a dozen times a day, but no one cared.As for Yingjie herself, the one who fell to the ground was a little dazed at first, but soon after hearing everyone laughing, she also grinned and let out a long series of haha.

Twelve Geng, who had already rushed to Nala Shuxian, was disgusted. Although he had just discussed this deal with Jia Zheng not long ago, but he claimed that it was because of Nala Shuxian, he himself did not care about this chubby girl.

— Chubby goose!

——What should I think of to get the fat girl over as soon as possible?

<<

Jia She, who was already in the examination room, naturally wouldn't know that his precious Yao'er had started cheating people again, and all he could do now was mourn for himself.Although Jia Amnesty had expected that the rural examination would be difficult, he didn't realize how naive he was thinking until he entered the number room.

It's really a palm-sized room, not an exaggeration at all.

The size of the entire number room is like a couch for beauties.And there are only two wooden boards in the No. [-] room, each of which is equivalent to half a beauty couch.One is fixed on the back wall and cannot be moved, and the other is made into a detachable movable type, and two wooden pegs are pressed on the walls on both sides.Because it was not yet night, Jia She used the fixed board as a seat and sat on it, while the other movable board was placed on the upper wooden peg as a table.After dark, the movable board is pulled out and placed on the wooden peg below, and then combined with the fixed board at the back to form a bed.

If it was just this, Jia She felt that he could barely accept it.But the problem is, there is a pile of things under the fixed board where he is sitting now, and it is full of stuff.

On the lower left is a basket filled with dry food and water, in the middle is a small bookcase containing the four treasures of the study, and on the lower right is... a chamber pot.

Oh my god!O earth!

Who will beg him! ! !

Even if there is no stock in the chamber pot, Jia She can't take it anymore, he has never lived such a hard life in his life.This room doesn't even have half of the canopy bed in his house, but in the next nine days, he will eat, drink, sleep, and answer questions in this palm-sized place.

For a moment, Jia Shesheng had nothing to love, and he just lay down on the board that served as a desk table and pretended to be dead.

……

When you are busy, time always flies by very fast.But unlike what Jia She thought before, no one asked him to stay in the numbered room for nine days at a stretch, otherwise he would really die.In fact, the rural examination consists of three exams, each of three days. After one exam, you can leave the exam room to rest for the whole day. You should eat, drink, sleep, and replenish dry food and water by the way.

Considering that the rest time is not long, Rongguo Mansion has already reserved the Tianzi Room which is the closest to the examination room. Of course, the meals are also ordered in advance from the best restaurants, and even sent two doctors to wait here , taking pulse, acupuncture, massage, and meeting with family members by the way.Therefore, every time after a test, Jia She felt that he was alive again.Of course, the next morning he was almost dead again.

Naturally, the same is true for Brother Zhen.

In fact, people like Jia Amnesty and Brother Zhen are already pretty good.Most of the more students rushing to take the exam spend the night outside, or book a room for two or three people, or spend the night at the homes of ordinary people nearby.As for eating and drinking, there is no problem, but at most it is enough to eat and drink.

After the nine-day exam was finally over, Jia Amnesty and Brother Zhen didn't even say a word, they just staggered into their respective carriages, and when they got back to the mansion, they didn't even say goodbye, and fell asleep in a daze.

Regardless of whether it was Jia's mother or Jia Jing from Dongfu, they did not blame them for their lack of etiquette.In good conscience, there is really no way to blame them, because the two slept for three days and three nights at a stretch, and did nothing in between except eating, drinking and lazing.Even if they managed to recover later, the two of them had no energy to make a fuss, and apart from going to the elders to say hello, they stayed in their respective houses, looking extremely obedient.

That's all for brother Zhen, but Jia Amnesty's appearance shocked Jia's mother very much.

"We won't take the exam. We won't take any exams later on. The left and right mansions are not bad, and there is no such thing as self-defeating. Remember, there will be no exams, and Zhu'er and Lian'er will not take the exams in the future!"

How else can I say that Mother Jia has a motherly heart, although most of the time she puts her motherly heart on Jia Zheng, but at first glance Jia Amnesty is too tired to go to Huajie and Liuxiang. She was terrified.What's more, although she is a bit biased on weekdays, she is very good to the grandchildren, no matter whether it is the first wife or the second wife, no matter whether it is a grandson or a granddaughter, they are all her treasures. .Therefore, she just announced that her descendants would not take the exam in the future.

Honestly, no one appreciated her at all.

What Jia Amnesty was thinking was that a person like him who is lazy and hardworking has survived, so why don't his nephews and sons have to take the exam?Exam, all exams!Except for his sweetheart, Yao'er, who is reluctant, he is willing to bear everything else!And after going through this experience, Jia Amnesty finally understood the difference between the provincial examination and the general examination, and by the way, also understood the importance of the number of students in the Imperial College.After regaining his senses, he immediately went to find Jia Zheng and retracted the previous transaction.

The number of supervisory students will not be given. In case his baby Yaoer grows up and has to take the imperial examination, at least the quota of Guozijian supervisory students will allow Twelve to avoid the nine-day rural examination and directly enter the three-day and non-consecutive meeting try.

"...No, no, no! I regret it, I ruined my promise, I'm just a bastard who doesn't keep promises!"

Hearing such shameless words, Jia Zheng exploded immediately.But after the bombing was over, he was also listless in an instant, just as he had expected at the beginning, empty words had nothing to do with him, he had absolutely nothing to do with Jia Amnesty.Not to mention that Jia She himself has already determined his own sex, and he is biased. Compared with being shameless, Jia Zheng is not Jia She's opponent at all.

After much deliberation, Jia Zheng could only murmur, "Then, do you want to welcome sister?"

"Yes! If I don't continue, I'll keep it in the house, and you can still snatch it from me?" Jia Amnesty gave Jia Zheng a sideways look, then flung his sleeves and left.

That's right, if it is a dignified adoption to the big house, then Jia Zheng's consent must be obtained, and the family tree must be revised at the patriarch Jia Jing.But if it's just a simple raising, then it doesn't matter.Anyway, with Jia Zheng's temperament, it is absolutely impossible to rush to Rongxi Hall to rob people.If it was Mrs. Wang, she could do this, but she would not be so stupid.And if Aunt Zhao dared to act rashly, it would be a big disrespect from the following.

So, after shooting himself in the foot with a rock, what Jia Zheng faced was losing his wife and losing his army.

During the commotion, the list was released.

Even though the family background of Rongguo Mansion did not require the masters to check the list in person, Jia She couldn't stop Jia She from not stopping.After resting for half a month, he already felt refreshed and energetic.That being the case, why let the housekeeper go?He can go by himself!

As promised, Jia Amnesty picked up his sweetheart Yao'er as soon as he turned his head, got into the carriage and rushed to the Gongyuan.

The last time I came to Gongyuan was to participate in the provincial examination, but this time it was to look at the list.However, Jia Amnesty overlooked a very important thing. During the rural examination, the Gong Yuan prohibited outsiders from entering, and a human wall was set up half a mile outside. Except for the examiners and candidates, the idlers stayed away.But the problem is, this is the list, and no one will set up a wall for this list.

Therefore, Jia Amnesty was lucky enough to see the crowds of people.

"This, this, these people are full of food, right? There were only 800 people in the provincial examination, but what's going on now? At least there are tens of thousands of people?" Jia She was completely dumbfounded. Although he only glanced at the students who were taking the same exam that day, he also knew that most of them were men around his age, and of course there were also young people who were not as weak as the crown, and old people who were over half a century old.But no matter what, students are easy to identify. The people in front of the entrance of the Gongyuan are all men, women and children, and most of them don't look like students at first glance.

"I told Housekeeper Lai to take a look, but he pulled me over." Twelve stared, then stared again, "Go and sit in the Junzi Tower, which is on the sidelines. The second uncle took me there last time."

"He took you to the teahouse?" Jia Amnesty also stared at him, but in the end he agreed to Twelve and walked towards the Junzi Tower not far away.Junzilou, whose business was sluggish during the rural examination, is now full of customers.Jia Amnesty asked for the best private room on the second floor, fearing that others would crowd Twelve, so he simply carried Twelve up to the second floor, and ordered tea and snacks casually.

The private rooms on the second floor are obviously not as lively as the lobby on the first floor, but at least [-]% of the private rooms are occupied, and they seem to be here for the release of the rankings, so most of the private rooms have their doors open. There are even acquaintances flirting with each other.

Jia Amnesty gave those people a look of disgust, and carried Twelve into the best private room that he wanted earlier.After a while, Cha Xiaoer brought up the tea and snacks, and said the title of the gold list with a smile on his face.

Naturally, the title of the gold list refers to the announcement of the general examination, and has nothing to do with the rural examination.However, everyone liked Lucky Head, so Jia Amnesty rewarded Cha Xiaoer with a silver ingot, and let him go down.

Because the private room they want is the best, and opening the window is the gate of the Gongyuan. Jia She simply hugged Twelve and lay on the edge of the window. After thinking about it, he probably felt that it was not safe, so he put Twelve down again, and coaxed He goes for a snack.

Twelve glanced at Jia She contemptuously. Although the private room on the second floor is much better than the first floor, but from this angle, you can only see the heads of people with tickets, and you can't see anything beside it. .Not to mention, there is still a quarter of an hour before the release of the list, even if you lie on the edge of the window, it is completely useless.

After being contemptuous, Twelve simply gnawed on the dim sum. He knew that the dim sum here was not good, but he was too busy, so he thought it was just grinding his teeth to pass the time.

After about a quarter of an hour, there was a sudden noise outside, making the Gongyuan look like a vegetable market.

"The list is released! The list is released!" Xu Shi was in a heated atmosphere outside, and Jia Amnesty couldn't help shouting, but he soon discovered that it was absolutely impossible to see the names on the list clearly in the private room on the second floor.

The Junzi Building is indeed near the Gongyuan, but not right next to it. In fact, there are no buildings within half a mile of the Gongyuan.Considering the height of the second floor, and the fact that the names on the list were written in small letters, Jia Amnesty quickly gave up.But it was impossible for him to squeeze with the people below, and the coachmen and servants he brought with him today were all illiterate.

Looking at Jia She, who was depressed for a moment, Twelve was in a better mood. Thinking about it, the people who joined in the fun will soon disperse. As long as they survive the first quarter of an hour, the people at the gate of the Gongyuan will only get worse. come less and less.It's time to go down and take a look, anyway, I'm not in a hurry.

However, Twelve miscalculated this time.

In just a moment, there was a burst of horrific screams from the gate of the Gongyuan.If that's all it is, maybe it's because of pushing and stamping. The problem is that the voice is too familiar.Even the screams that were different from the usual ones had a familiar smell.As for the more familiar tone after the scream...

"I won! I won!! Oh my God! I actually won! Hahahahahaha! I, Jia Zhen, have a chance to win! From now on, don’t call me Brother Zhen or Master Zhen anymore Now, call me Jane Daju!!"

It's Jane who is a fool!Twelve couldn't help complaining secretly.

As a result, at the next moment, someone even stupider than Brother Zhen appeared.Jia She leaned half out of the window, waving his arms, and called loudly, "Brother Zhen! Help me take a look! Come on, help me take a look too! Later, uncle, I'll treat you to a flower wine!"

twelve:……
