After the Enke examination period is announced, the scientific examination is expected to be fast.
The focus of Zhu Ping'an's studies was on the scientific examination. The scientific examination was based on the curriculum of the county school and the government school, focusing on the "Four Books", the "Classic", "The Complete Collection of Xingli" and "Zhu Zi Gangmu"
, etiquette, music, books, etc. are no longer read, and the scientific examination does not test the etiquette and music books. The types of questions in the scientific examination are generally scriptures, books, meanings, tables, policies, etc. Oh, sometimes members are also required to recite. Zhu
Ping An provides targeted exercises based on the above content and question types.
In addition, Zhu Pingan's study intensity has also become much more intense than before. He wakes up about half an hour earlier in the morning and goes to bed half an hour later than before.
Although the scientific examination is generally conducted by the academic officer who goes to each county and government, sometimes the academic officer will also adopt the method of "taking the exam" and "taking the same exam", "touring and toiling, alone to lead the sun and the moon"
. When it comes to Dabi, the prefecture will be held separately, and the county-level exams will be combined. "Diaozao means that the academic officer will visit a prefecture and transfer students from other prefectures to this prefecture to take the exam. The so-called class exam is also the exam.
The academic officer currently entrusts the county officials to assess the students, and then sends them to the provincial capital for assessment by the academic officer. The suspension exam will make the students travel miserable, and the general exam is assessed by the county officials, so it is difficult to
It is easy to breed *. The ideal way of scientific examination is to have the academic officer visit and preside over it on schedule.
While studying and reviewing, Zhu Ping'an also continued the "Eternal Slaughter of the Snake" that he taught to the dark girl last time and wrote several thousand words. Although it took up a lot of time, it was just for practicing calligraphy.
Mother Chen also cooked delicious food for Zhu Pingan in various ways. She had stewed, boiled, steamed, fried, pan-fried, pickled, and cooked everything. Zhu Pingan was full every meal, lest he
Nutrition can't keep up.
"Xie'er. How about we not take the exam?"
One day, Mrs. Chen looked at Zhu Pingan at the dinner table and suddenly spoke.
Not only Zhu Pingan, who was enjoying his meal, was stunned, but Zhu's father, eldest brother and Zhu Pingchuan were also stunned.
A few days ago, her mother, Mrs. Chen, was happily bragging to everyone that her son was going to take the Juren Examination. Her enthusiasm was much higher than that of Zhu Pingan. Chen loved to show off. Regardless of whether Zhu Pingan could pass the exam, just taking the Juren Examination would
Simply taking the exam is enough for Chen to show off.
Therefore, what Chen suddenly said now surprised everyone.
"What's wrong, mother?" Zhu Ping'an swallowed the chicken in his mouth. He looked at his mother Chen in surprise and asked, confused.
Mother Chen looked at Zhu Ping'an with great distress, "Mom, I see you are too tired from studying. These days, Mom tries her best to make delicious food for you, but not only does she not make you fat, she also sees you thin.
It’s been a long time. Let’s not take the exam anymore.”
Hearing this, Zhu Ping'an was so moved by his mother Chen's deep maternal love that he couldn't laugh or cry.
"Why is the boy so fat?" Zhu's father took a bite of the meat pie and said casually.
Then
Father Zhu's words stirred up a hornet's nest.
"Zhu Shouyi, it's not the meat that fell from your body. Of course you don't feel bad!" Mother Chen put the chopsticks on the table and glared at Father Zhu. Then she saw the meat pie in Father Zhu's hand, and then
He snatched it from Zhu's father's mouth. "This meat pie is made for Xie'er and Dachuan, it doesn't belong to you!"
Then, mother Chen placed the meat pie with a corner missing in front of Zhu Pingan.
Ahem. Looking at the meat pie that Zhu's father took a bite of, Zhu Pingan couldn't help but smile.
"Mom, I'm growing. All the fat is growing on my body. You see, my son has grown a lot these days." Zhu Pingan stood up from the table and made gestures with his hands on the top of his head.
Click twice to indicate that you have grown taller.
"How can you grow up so fast?" Mother Chen, who was interrupted by Zhu Pingan, felt much better and said in a fit of laughter and tears.
"Brother He has really grown taller." The eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also spoke at the right time, and he spoke the truth. He felt that the second brother had really grown taller in the past two days.
"Really?" Mother Chen's eyes lit up. Her eldest son was as virtuous as his father and would not tell lies.
"real."
Zhu Pingan and his eldest brother Zhu Pingan said in unison.
Then, mother Chen's mood improved a lot and she no longer asked Zhu Ping'an not to take the exam.
Zhu Ping'an promptly placed the missing piece of meat pie in Zhu's father's bowl.
Father Zhu looked at the meat pie and Mrs. Chen, but he didn't dare to speak.
"What are you looking at? Eat your cake. Who else will eat what you have bitten?" Mother Chen looked at Father Zhu and rolled her eyes, scolding her.
After hearing Mrs. Chen's scolding, Father Zhu grinned and started eating.
"Look at your potential!" Mother Chen couldn't help but laugh.
The atmosphere at the dinner table suddenly became harmonious, and the family had a delicious breakfast. The living standards of the Zhu family have improved dramatically in recent years. Zhu's father drove the bullock cart and gained a lot of money, and his eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also gained a lot in the mountains.
, mother Chen's needlework can often supplement the family income. Last year, Zhu's father bought ten acres of paddy fields and ten acres of dry fields in Xiahe Village. Together with the original fields, the Zhu family is now considered a wealthy family in the village.
Especially after Zhu Ping'an was admitted as a scholar, the Zhu family's status in Xiahe Village has also improved a lot. Now when mother Chen goes out, others rush to say hello, which makes mother Chen happy every day.
The eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan's marriage is also secure. He is just waiting for sister Juan'er to come in. For this sister-in-law, Zhu Ping'an has been reading books all the year round and has never met her, but I heard that it is quite good. Especially...
The eldest brother couldn't be more satisfied with this sister-in-law. He often used different ways to get close to others. In the past, the eldest brother's father-in-law was always in the way. However, since Zhu Ping'an became a child student, especially a scholar, the eldest brother's father-in-law not only opened his eyes to
I close one eye and occasionally take the initiative to go out for a walk.
In short, everything in the Zhu family is prosperous.
Compared to Zhu Ping'an's family, the Zhu family's old home is a bit sour. Although people compliment their grandfather Mr. Zhu and his grandmother when they go out, they can always feel that there is some teasing in the villagers' compliments.
Mr. Zhu often sighed in the yard. It would have been better if the second son's family had not been separated.
"I heard from the second family that Zhi'er is going to take the Juren Examination again." My grandfather sat on the chair and talked to the grandmother who was picking vegetables.
"I haven't even written my horoscope yet, and the second child is talking as if I've passed the exam." The grandmother picking vegetables curled her lips.
"What do you know? It's a big deal to be able to take the imperial examination." Grandfather took a puff from his cigarette.
"You should smoke less, you have been coughing for a long time last night."
Grandma was stunned for a long time after hearing this. She raised her head and saw her grandfather lighting another pot of cigarettes. She couldn't help but put down the food in her hand to dissuade him.
"Just take two puffs." Grandfather flattened his mouth.
The Zhu family's old house became quiet again, with only the humming of chickens, ducks and pigs. (To be continued)
