This time Zhang Yue handed in his paper half an hour early.
"Sanlang handed in the paper again."
"Sure enough, the I Ching is too difficult, and I'm not the only one."
"Excuse me, you Daozaburo is just like you."
"Sanlang was the first to submit the paper in the county school entrance exam, and he got a perfect pass."
"I see."
In the eyes of everyone, Zhang Yue was the first to hand in his paper. It was not that he wanted to show off, but to save time and prepare for the next exam.
The invigilator of the county school took a look at Zhang Yue's paper and couldn't help but said: "Sanlang is really amazing, he has written so much. The whole paper is filled up."
Zhang Yue couldn't help but smile awkwardly, okay, the angle of this compliment is quite strange, but he has written quite a lot.
"Thank you very much for the compliment."
The other party smiled and said: "Sanlang is a good student."
After leaving the dining hall, he walked to the kitchen stove to get the rice basin without returning to the studio. There was a Zhou ceremony in the evening. The meal had been cooked in the kitchen in advance, and the food basins were placed in first, second, and third order on the tree outside the dining hall.
Next, many students who were going to take the Zhou Li test had already arrived. As soon as they arrived, they took the rice bowls and stood or squatted outside the dining hall to eat.
Zhang Yue was about to stand outside the hall and have a meal with everyone, when someone said: "Sanlang, there is someone at home, waiting on the front porch!"
Zhang Yue walked to the front porch carrying the rice bowl, only to see Zhang Shi waiting there with a food basket.
"Third brother! Third brother!" After saying this, Zhang Shi turned to one of the disciples and said, "Look, did I just say that he is a brother? How can I believe it?"
Zhang Shilang smiled happily and said: "It doesn't matter, it doesn't matter."
Zhang Yue walked up to his brother and said to the disciple: "He is my brother."
Menzi smiled apologetically and stepped back, Zhang Yue said with a smile: "Brother, why are you here?"
"Didn't I know that you have a public examination today, so I rushed to bring you food? If the shop hadn't been busy at noon, I would have brought it to you long ago. Eat quickly, while it is still hot, it will be brought to you as soon as it comes out of the pot.
"
"Okay. Brother, eat some too."
Zhang Shi opened the lid of the food basket and said, "I have eaten. Xi'er was about to come see you, but I stopped her. And your sister-in-law said that the weather will change and she will give you a winter coat. She will give it to you later."
You put it on. Yes, let me serve you a bowl of chicken soup first. This old hen has been stewed all afternoon. The heat is just right. The soup is covered with oil and water. Take a sip. If you can drink this hot soup in winter, the taste will never be the same as in the official store.
If you give me a seat, I won’t be happy either!”
Listening to what Zhang Shi said, Zhang Yue watched him take out a cup of chicken soup, wrapped in cloth. When the lid of the cup was lifted, there was indeed a trace of steam coming out.
Zhang Shi served Zhang Yue a large bowl. Zhang Yue couldn't wait to take a bite of the chicken first. It was really soft and rotten. Then Zhang Yue drank the chicken soup with thick oily flowers, and immediately felt warm all over his body.
Already.
Before traveling through time, this layer of oily flowers was often scooped away, but now it has become the most essential part of a cup of soup.
As he approached, Zhang Shi brought out another bowl of stewed wontons without any soup and said, "Third brother, these wontons are stewed and eaten soaked in chicken soup."
The two brothers immediately sat on the front porch and ate the food in the food basket.
In the end, even Zhang Yue, who had a strong fighting ability, burped for a long time: "Brother, I can't eat any more. You can take back what you save!"
Zhang Shi said with a smile: "That's fine. Tell your brother what you want to eat tomorrow, and he will ask someone in the shop to bring it to you."
After saying this, Zhang Shi stuffed a lot of candied nuts and seven or eight cooked eggs for Zhang Yue. Zhang Yue held them in his arms.
"Eat the eggs when you are hungry, and distribute the candied nuts to your classmates. Don't eat alone and just remember yourself, and be more harmonious with your classmates outside."
Zhang Yue couldn't refuse, nodded and said: "Brother knows, you can go back!"
"Okay! Third brother, how about we eat wonton stew tomorrow?" Zhang Shi accepted, then he picked up the food and walked away.
Zhang Yue followed his brother's instructions and distributed all these candied candies to his classmates. Everyone smiled and thanked them while envying Zhang Yue for having such a brother.
Zhang Yue did not rest for a moment. Most of the students in the I Ching exam had finished their exams and the next exam was about to begin. As for the students who passed the exam by copying Zhang Yue's papers, they thanked Zhang Yue repeatedly as soon as they left the house.
Guo Lin also had a test on Zhou Li.
The two of them entered the restaurant early and found a seat to sit down.
"How is Junior Brother? Are you still taking it?" Guo Lin asked from the side.
"It's okay, senior brother, don't worry about me."
"That's good, don't tire yourself out. If you can't hold on to the great righteousness, just leave it blank and don't write it down. It's just ten ways. Even if you don't write down any of them, you can get through the nine if you write down the others."
"OK."
After Zhang Yue finished his answer, several classmates sitting next to him were overjoyed when they saw him: "Sanlang, please help me later!"
"Sanlang, I was worried about my failure in this subject, but now that I see you, I feel confident."
"Su Zhi Sanlang is a righteous man, so I thank you in advance."
Zhang Yue smiled. At this time, someone was already taking candles from the bookcase and heading to the kitchen stove.
In winter, the days are short and the nights are long. Before the end of the year, the dining hall is already much darker.
Seeing this scene, Zhang Yue and Guo Lin each took candles from the examination box. A few of them went to the kitchen stove to light the candles first, while the others borrowed candles and lit the candle stubs.
There was no candlestick, so Zhang Yue dropped the burning candle wax on the dining table, and then fixed the candle on the still unmelted candle wax.
The invigilator handed out the papers one by one. Zhang Yue took a pen and compared the questions on the papers with his own test paper to answer the questions.
After eating a hot soup meal, Zhang Yue regained a lot of strength, but after writing like this for a day, Zhang Yue still had some energy, and his hands and shoulders were sore. After writing for a while, Zhang Yue had to put down his pen.
, rubbing shoulders and shaking arms.
It was suddenly cold at night and taking eleven exams in a row was really the biggest test of my mental and physical strength.
Several candidates who couldn't afford to put on more clothes already had runny noses from the cold.
With his new winter clothes and the warm and greasy bowl of wonton stew in chicken soup, Zhang Yue gained a lot of strength.
Anyway, it's the last subject, so don't be too hasty, just write it one by one.
This chapter was also written much slower. It took nearly two hours to almost finish the paper, and the other candidates were almost the same.
After answering the last question, Zhang Yue finally felt relieved. He stood up and handed in the paper, then turned and walked down the hall. He saw rows and rows of candles arranged from far to near on the dining table in the dark dining hall. The candlelight flickered lightly,
From time to time there was a light sound.
Under the lights of dozens of candles, there are young faces. Each candidate is concentrating on the pen, and the strokes are drawn on the paper, just like the sound of spring eating leaves.
And I must have been just as serious as them.
After opening the door and leaving, Zhang Yue looked up and saw that the first quarter moon was already hanging in the sky, and a galaxy was hanging on the zenith. Compared with himself, the galaxy was still so far away, but upon closer inspection, it seemed to be a little closer.
Suddenly, a feeling of extreme exhaustion surged through his body, and Zhang Yue let out a long yawn. At this moment, he wished that a bed would open for him on the ground in front of him. Now Zhang Yue was able to fall asleep instantly by lying down immediately.
The three exams on the first day have been completed.
Five games on the second day!
They are Xiaojing, Shangshu, Gongyangzhuan, Guliangzhuan, and The Book of Songs.
In addition to the Xiao Jing, which must be tested, there are three small classics and one medium classic.
This examination process is very unscientific to Zhang Yue.
Here, Zhang Yue is most familiar with Xiao Jing and Shi Jing, but Shangshu, Gongyang and Gu Liang are second.
Zhang Yue has never been very good at Shangshu. He was lucky enough to get everything right in the last county school entrance exam, and Gongyang and Guliang were also new to the school.
Fortunately, the two major sutras, Zuozhuan and Liji, are on the second day.
As soon as he got the paper, Zhang Yue picked up his pen and started writing. The most important thing now is not whether he can write, but whether he can finish it.
For Zhang Yue, these five games were just like one paper after another. He ate all the food and didn't even have time to take a nap. Zhang Yue didn't even dare to drink more water. If he drank more, he would be punished.
It's a waste of time, so I spent the entire journey on dry food.
For him, this was the most difficult level, but Zhang Yue persisted. And he finished writing it all, regardless of whether it was right or wrong, at least it was finished.
When the fifth exam was over, Zhang Yue could hardly walk steadily, and was almost helped back to his dormitory by Guo Lin.
The next day I had to get up early and take three exams.
But compared with the five heavy pressures on the second day, the first and third days were already a piece of cake.
Completed nine exams in eleven sessions.
Zhang Yue had unknowingly created something unprecedented among the students of the County School of Economics, and this matter has been talked about by subsequent County School students.
The second day after the exam.
The sky finally cleared up and the sun shone brightly.
The sun shines on Zhang Yue through the tops of the pines.
However, he went to the dining hall to eat in a daze. If he didn't want to miss the second-class meal, Zhang Yue would rather lie in bed and take a nap until noon.
Along the way, I saw countless people talking to me or greeting me. Even the students of Jinshizhai who had dismissed Jingshengzhai in the past got to know me for the first time.
When he entered the dining hall, the originally noisy place suddenly became quiet, and then everyone spoke with reverence in their eyes.
"Saburo!"
"Sanlang is here!"
"I've met Saburo!"
Facing the enthusiasm of everyone, Zhang Yue couldn't help but think with suspicion, the rankings haven't been released yet? Why is it like this? Could it be that I have become handsome again? But even if it is true, it is not like this!
But when he saw a student from Jinshizhai walking up to him and saying, "No matter how well Sanlang does in the exam this time, we are all convinced."
Another person said: "Sanlang, when you reported eleven games, I still doubted you, but now I hope you won't take it to the bottom of your heart."
"Sanlang, I wish I could know on the spot how you did in the exam."
The sun shines through the window and shines slantingly on Zhang Yue.
Zhang Yue, who was bathed in sunshine and praises, suddenly realized that no matter how well he did in the exam, he was the first person in the county school to pass the exam of nine classics and eleven exams.
Yes, I finally did it! No matter how well I did in the exam, I finally managed to do something that no one in the county school had ever done.
Seeing all the classmates happy for me without being jealous, this was more touching than congratulating each other after the results were released.
Zhang Yue said with a smile: "You guys are making ridiculous compliments. I am not trying to show off my talents. I just want to say, 'Those who try their best and fail to achieve it can have no regrets. Who can ridicule them?' I am willing to say this to Wang Jiefu, who knows the state."
Let me encourage you all to live up to your youth and what you have learned!"
Students from left and right county schools said one after another: "That's it."
"Let's encourage Zhang Jun together! Live up to your time and what you have learned!"
A string of laughter sounded in the dining hall again.
And a few days later, the county school public examination results will be released!
