The official road of the farmer

The day of the rural examination is getting closer and closer, and the whole city of Yongzhou is bustling like never before. Students from all over the prefecture gather here, such as inns or those houses specially used for renting, which are already full of candidates for the rural examination.

Ye Junshu has lived in Fucheng for two years, and he is very familiar with the Gongyuan and other places. Naturally, he doesn't have to rush to queue up to go through the qualification procedures for the rural examination like the newcomers.

Those of Yongzhou College who are eligible to take the exam will be arranged by the college to complete the formalities as early as the first day of open registration.

It is said that since a month ago, hundreds of people from the Gongyuan have signed up every day.

Regardless of the small number of scholars admitted in each college entrance examination, the accumulation of each session is a huge base. According to the latest statistics, as of yesterday, the number of applicants has reached 3000.

And the registration time is only half over.

The number of admissions for the township examination is also limited, and the number of places between 150 and 150 is stipulated according to the number of comparisons in various aspects.The province with the wealthiest and strongest literary style generally has the largest number of [-] places, descending in descending order, and the poorest prefectural city has [-] places.

Yongzhou City is a land of wealth and wealth, with a maximum of 150 candidates admitted, but there have also been cases where the candidates were not good enough and the number of candidates was not enough.

Everything depends on the judges of the examiners.

150 seems to be more than the number of scholars, but you must know that the number of scholars is the ranking of each county, and this is from the prefecture, so the base population is different. The quality and number of outstanding students from various counties are not at the same level.

The competition is fiercer.

Yu Maolin came back a month ago, and brought many special products from his hometown entrusted by his family, as well as clothes made by Ming's mother and the others.

Knowing that he was going to participate in the township examination this time, Yejia Village opened a ancestral hall specially to pray for the blessing of the ancestors.

The letters I brought were basically encouraging him and cheering him up, and I also said a few good things at home to reassure him.

I haven't seen you for two years. I have to say that Ye Junshu sometimes thinks of those people and things in his hometown, and misses him very much...

I don't know what Yu Maolin was thinking, when he came, there were a lot of servants, but he continued to live with him, and didn't let other servants come to the house, and frowned and said, it's so clean.

If those domestic servants insisted on staying to serve Maolin, he had no right to say anything from his standpoint. After all, this was Yu's house and he was just a tenant.

When there are too many people, it is easy to be chaotic and even feel uncomfortable.Ye Junshu wanted to endure it and passed.

Fortunately, Yu Maolin directly let them live in another place.

As the number one in Linfeng County, Yu Maolin participated in this imperial examination. His goal was very ambitious, and he wanted to win the three yuan. Ye Junshu thought of the teacher's advice from time to time, secretly thought, and went all out to see who could win the first place.

The day of the township examination was approaching day by day, and even the children in the family became very well-behaved and obedient, so as not to cause trouble for Ye Junshu.

He and Maolin are relatively well-informed in Yongzhou. They already know that the examiner has arrived in Yongzhou and is preparing for the exam.

The imperial court attached great importance to the imperial examinations, and each session personally dispatched chief and deputy examiners to invigilate the examinations.

Ye Junshu got the news that the chief examiner this time is from the Ming family and the deputy examiner is from the Li family. This is not very good news for Ye Junshu.

The news in Yongzhou is very well-informed. After knowing that Ye Junshu intends to become an official, Zhuo Xianzhi has been analyzing the official situation to Ye Junshu, and he has some understanding of the court situation.

But no matter what the examiner is, as long as he can guarantee relative fairness, he believes that with his current knowledge, he can at least be on the list.

The college has stopped teaching. Ye Junshu and Yu Maolin are going out to get together with friends during this time, drinking tea and tasting flowers and plants, and exchanging information with each other.

Zhuo Xianzhi didn't let him come to class anymore, so he could concentrate on preparing for the provincial examination, saying that he was going to start preparing for the teacher appreciation banquet at the bottom of Ye Junshu's list, which made Ye Junshu feel a lot of pressure.

This township examination will take nine days and six nights, divided into three sessions. Ye Junshu and the others have prepared the things that will be used in the examination room.

All of this was checked by Nan Ahme himself, checking and checking things, for fear that there was something missing or inappropriate.

Yu Maolin is also big-hearted, the things prepared by the family are directly handed over to Nan Ah, to see what is missing from each other, and make up for it.

Ye Junshu thought to himself, isn't he afraid of his petty tricks?

Well, he can't do this kind of thing, let's compete openly.

Because there are more people taking the exam, the exam time is longer, and the exam is more rigorous, the exam room is not like the college exam, where meals are provided, and you can only bring your own.

The examination room only provides a place for the examination. Some people from Ye Junshu’s academy have participated in it. It’s no secret that the situation on the spot is the same as the examination shed in the academy, except for standard equipment such as wooden beds, tables and toilets, there is nothing else.

Moreover, there is only one small window in the small room, which is used to send and receive papers, and to check with the examiner for cheating.

During the exam, they couldn't leave the small room, and couldn't communicate with the outside world. The only ones who could walk outside were the examiners and guards.

Those who can persevere in such a small dark room without being affected by their own level are very strong.

A few days before the exam, Ye Junshu and Yu Maolin stopped going out. When there were too many people outside, troubles would easily arise. As well-known talents in Yongzhou, they were prone to hatred. If something unexpected happened, it would be hard to say.

Ye Junshu and Yu Maolin live together and can communicate with each other, so there is no anxiety before the exam.

The day of the township examination came under the eyes of all the people.

With the expectations of his relatives and friends, Ye Junshu struggled to enter the arena with candidates who lined up and seemed to see no end.

Needless to say, the sad process during the exam, the most painful thing is not writing the papers, but other things, especially the sweltering weather is very uncomfortable.

When the first exam was over, the brothers of the Ye family stayed outside one by one, standing on their toes and looking up at their necks from time to time.

"Second brother, second brother, is eldest brother out?" Brother Qin pulled Ye Junshan's clothes anxiously.

Ye Junshan was also staring at the gate of the Gongyuan, "Wait a minute, it should be soon."

Ye Junshan was already 14 years old, and now he was just like Ye Junshu back then. He stood tall and looked far away, and he could see the candidates coming out of the gate continuously.

Suddenly, his eyes lit up, he raised his hand and kept waving it, shouting loudly: "Big Brother! Big Brother! Here!"

When the others heard that Ye Junshu had come out, no matter whether they saw it or not, they also howled a few times, "Big brother! Big brother!"

Ye Junshu came out along the crowd, looking to see if there were any acquaintances as he walked, but he heard the voice of his child. He followed the reputation and faintly saw a hill standing on a high place outside.

He quickly passed through the dense crowd, and the twins had already seen him, and ran over cheering, stretching out their hands to hug him.

Ye Junshu squatted down with a smile, and also opened his hands, waiting for the twins to rush over.

Seeing that the scene of brotherly love was about to be staged, the twins suddenly stopped suddenly, their little noses wrinkled, and Ye Jun said: "What smell?"

Brother Jing pinched his little nose, "It stinks!"

They sniffed Ye Junshu, um, it stinks even more.

Ye Junshu: "..."

"Oh, I was rejected, brother is so sad!" Ye Junshu pretended to sigh, looking sad.

When the twins saw it, they became anxious, and rushed into Ye Junshu's arms, "We don't dislike big brother!"

"Don't dislike it! Brother, don't cry!"

Ye Junshu hugged the twins in satisfaction, watching them wrinkle their faces into little old men, and even stretched out their little hands to comfort his neck, he was even happier hahaha.

Well, he was being mean, but seeing the twins like this made him happy.

The other children also came over, looking at him with little eyes like looking up at a triumphant hero.

Ye Junshu and his family walked briskly towards the house.

Nan Ahmo said from the side: "Young master, hot water is ready."

"it is good."

The room number of the examination room was assigned immediately when entering the venue. I don't know where Yu Maolin and the others are allocated, but we can find out when we get home, because after the allocation, the next two games will be held in that room number.

Ye Junshu's room number is [-], and Yu Maolin's is [-], they are far apart.Others are not in the mood to communicate.

For just one night, they just want to take a bath, eat enough and sleep well, and they have to line up to enter the examination room in the early morning of the next day to start the next exam.

For the next two exams, Ye Junshu was already used to it. His physique was much better than the other candidates, and there was no sign of discomfort. Even Yu Maolin's face was pale and trembling after the second exam.

Moreover, in the past few days, dozens of candidates have been carried out due to heat stroke or other reasons.

Ye Junshu was worried that Yu Maolin would not be able to survive the third round, so he specially massaged him to make him feel better.

When exercising by yourself, you should ask Yu Maolin to go with you, how can you do this for someone so fragile?

Will try again next time!

Well, after the exam, let's call to exercise together.

Every time Ye Junshu came out, he could get the loving hugs from the children. He was in a good mood when he saw the twins being smoked so badly, hahaha.

But in the end, he used his brain at a high level continuously. After three exams, he fell asleep for a long time, and then silently wrote his answer, and went to find the teacher.

After reading it, Zhuo Xianzhi nodded in satisfaction, "Very good, I have passed the test."

After listening to Ye Junshu, he breathed a sigh of relief silently. If he can get the teacher's evaluation, he is expected to be on the list. Now it is just a matter of ranking, and I hope it will not be too low.

He didn't perform exceptionally well this time, and he wasn't sure about No.1, but forget it, it was my luck, and my life was lost.

If Yu Maolin can win three yuan in a row, it will be a good talk.

Next, is to wait for the results.

"Come, come, I found a few top-notch Nurhongs for my teacher, 20-year-old ones, let me satisfy your hunger first, and wait until the day of the teacher appreciation banquet, I will still be a teacher for 30 years!"

Zhuo Xianzhi took out a jug of wine from somewhere, handed it to Ye Junshu, and he had already started to drink it.

Ye Junshu held a jar of wine: "..." When will the problem of drinking when you are happy and wanting to drink when you are unhappy?

Thanks to a teacher who is addicted to alcohol, he can proudly call himself a thousand cups but not drunk.
