Take Taobao to ancient times

Zhuang Jinhan didn't return to Beijing even during the Chinese New Year this year, but he also specially wrote letters back, one to Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother, and the other to Lu Siyu.

For Lu Siyu, he has long been used to using modern chat tools, so writing letters is a bit unusual for him, but since Zhuang Jinhan left Beijing, he has also received a lot of letters, and occasionally, he will Reply a few letters, talk about your recent situation, talk about the situation of Zhuang's father and mother, and then talk about Song Jue's business.

Every time he received a letter, he thought he had nothing to say, but every time he started to write a letter, he would use up several sheets of letter paper, and there was nothing important in the letter, it was just trivial things, but he always felt like It's like there are endless things to say. Every time he finishes writing a letter, even he himself feels very helpless looking at the folded letter into a thick stack.

During this period of time, Lu Siyu also found out the habits and functions of all the crops, which was much faster than the Ministry of War's own production of these crops. After handing them all over to the Ministry of Industry, he didn't care about these things anymore.

For the rest of the time, he has been managing restaurants and taking care of his studies.

After the initial silence of the restaurant, the business has been booming. When the other shopkeepers reacted and wanted to suppress it, it was too late. In addition, they still couldn't figure out who was behind the Lujia restaurant, so they had to Take one step at a time.

In addition, with the increasing production of peppers, Lujia restaurants have also begun to open in various counties.

The county's industry is relatively small, but as the number of restaurants increases, the overall income will not be low.

In addition to the special dishes of the restaurant itself, Lu Siyu also specially approached Song Jue, hoping that his people could pay attention to the delicacies from various places and see which ones can be integrated into the restaurant. After all, if a restaurant wants to grow bigger, special features are essential. .

But in the final analysis, Lu Siyu didn't spend much time on these things this year. He spent most of his time on his studies, hoping to be able to pass the examination as a scholar.

Perhaps it was because of nutrition, and because he was in the growth period, Lu Siyu's height also grew rapidly during this year, reaching 1.7 meters 1.7. At this time, even in the modern south, the height of [-] meters [-] Already belonged to normal male height.

Lu Siyu's height requirements are not high, but when he just crossed, the original owner was a little thin due to malnutrition. Now that he has reached this height, even if he has been fixed at this height in the future, he already feels satisfied.

On the eve of the exam, Song Jue came to the door with a lot of things in his hand.

"Uncle, why are you here?" Lu Siyu was still holding a book in his hand, probably because he was used to taking exams before, and he also likes to surprise before the exam.

"I went to the dealer's for dinner today. My sister and brother-in-law asked me to bring it. Take it quickly." Song Jue stretched out his hand and handed the things to Lu Siyu. After finally handing over, he patted his arm. Not good, specially asked me to bring some things here, these are all good things."

"But a few days ago, my uncle and aunt had asked the servants to bring a lot of food. How could I finish eating it?" Lu Siyu was a little bit dumbfounded, but he was very moved in his heart. After all, he and Zhuang's father and mother had no relatives, no reason, and the only connection Even if he and Zhuang Jinhan are good friends and have been taken care of all the time, he is also a little embarrassed.

"Eat slowly if you can't finish eating. You can continue to eat after you finish the exam. Look at how thin you are. If Jin Han comes back and sees you so thin, it will hurt your heart." Song Jue patted Lu Siyu on the shoulder .

"Where is it, isn't it because he is growing taller?" Lu Siyu said helplessly. Naturally, he still eats the same food as before, but he has used his nutrition to grow taller, so he will naturally lose weight. "Uncle and aunt are too worried."

"That's right, I didn't see them worrying so much when Jinhan took the talent test before." Song Jue was also very surprised, he knew very well the temper of Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother. Treat Lu Siyu so well, as if this is his own child.

Hearing this, Lu Siyu was silent for a moment, and looked at Song Jue seriously, "Uncle, I won't continue the exam after finishing the scholar exam, will my uncle and aunt be angry?"

Generally speaking, the elders hope that the younger generation will have a bright future, but Lu Siyu knew that he was definitely not suitable for being an official, and he had long planned to pass the exam for scholar, but now seeing the care of Zhuang's father and Zhuang's mother, he I felt a little embarrassed, like I did something wrong.

"Don't think about it so much. It's not a day or two that you don't want to be an official. My sister, brother-in-law and the others won't say anything. Take the exam well and talk about it later." Song Jue said.

"Thank you, uncle." Lu Siyu heaved a sigh of relief.

When it comes to the test of talent, it is difficult to say, and it is simple to say. Compared with the later Juren and Jinshi, scholar is actually the easiest to test, and there are not so many complicated things. Basically, as long as you master the knowledge in books I can pass the test.

Therefore, in the countryside, many scholars mostly aim at being a scholar. For example, the father of the original owner, although he only passed the examination of a scholar, his status in the village is not low. Also considered a difficult achievement to achieve.

Back in ancient times, Lu Siyu had to take the exam. This matter made Lu Siyu very helpless, but since he was here, he could only do as the Romans did. It is much better to have the reputation of a scholar than ordinary people.

There is no age limit for the Xiucai exam. As long as you have the ability, you can take the exam no matter if you are in your teens or decades. Taking the exam for Xiucai at Lu Siyu's age is actually a little older. In the examination room where he took the exam, there are Lots of kids around ten years old.

Regarding this, Lu Siyu didn't think too much about it, as he was taking the exam with a group of gifted children.

However, Lu Siyu had also been immersed in the college entrance examination. After all the subjects were passed, he realized that the talent examination was not that complicated, and he was in a good mood after he came out.

"Big brother-"

As soon as Lu Siyu went out, he heard a familiar voice, and saw four children at a glance.

Besides Lu Siyue and the others, there was also Song Chen.

"Just the four of you?" Lu Siyu asked.

"Brother brought us here." Song Chen said.

"Brother?" Lu Siyu was at a loss, but soon he saw someone, "No class today?"

"Even if you have classes, you can ask for leave, right?" Song Ming smiled and hooked Lu Siyu's neck, "Let's go, to celebrate your exam, let's have a good meal together, I'll treat you."

"I don't know if I can pass the exam yet." Lu Siyu had no choice but to pull away Song Ming's hand silently.

"It's just a mere scholar, how could he not pass the exam?" Song Ming said casually, "I think Xiaochen and the others haven't eaten delicious food for a long time. Today is such a good opportunity, so naturally I want to have a good meal, so I will go to Lu Let’s go to a restaurant.”

"Lu's restaurant?" Lu Siyu asked, he suddenly remembered that except for a few people, even Song Ming didn't know that he was the owner behind the Lu's restaurant.

"No, it's said that Lu's restaurant has launched new dishes. The point is that many of the dishes are not expensive, so I can afford them." Song Ming said with a smile, not hiding the fact that he was poor.

"No need, since it's my exam, why don't I treat guests, call a few classmates by the way, and open a big box." Lu Siyu said with a smile, if you go to the Lu's restaurant and ask Song Ming to treat guests, his boss will do nothing Meaning.

"Really?" Song Ming asked in surprise.

"Seriously, go and call people. I'll take them to the Lu's restaurant first, and then we will meet at the restaurant." Lu Siyu said.

"Then I really went to call someone?" Song Ming asked again.

"Well, since the words have been spoken, it is natural to keep what you say, go and call someone." Lu Siyu nodded with a smile.

"I'm going." Song Ming left such a sentence, then ran away with a smile.

Lu Siyu shook his head. Speaking of which, most of the students in the college have already passed the examination of scholar, including Song Ming, but Lu Siyu has been procrastinating until now because of his filial piety, so scholar is nothing to Song Ming and the others. After all, it was just an excuse to get together.

Lu Siyu didn't expose it, and took the four of them to the Lu's restaurant first, and asked the shopkeeper for a big box.

During this period of time in the capital, Wang Wu has become a qualified shopkeeper. Because he knew that Lu Siyu didn't want his identity to be known, he just entertained him like an ordinary guest, but his attitude was more sincere, but outsiders basically couldn't see Wang Wu's identity. Does Wu treat Lu Siyu special?

Not long after, Song Ming brought some people over. Most of the people who came had a good relationship with Lu Siyu, or they were able to get along with each other in harmony. Bring people here.

We are all young people, so we naturally eat and drink when we get together, and sometimes talk about young people, but Lu Siyue and the others are not used to it in such an environment.

So Lu Siyu simply opened another small box and let the four of them sit in the small box to eat and drink. As for this side, they should talk about whatever they want, and they won't have any scruples because there are children.

Sure enough, when Lu Siyu went back, what he saw was even crazier than before, and many people even came to toast with their glasses up.

Lu Siyu knew that his drinking capacity was average, so he didn't drink too much. After a few times of evasion, he just tasted it. Fortunately, everyone didn't care, and chatted again in small groups.

"Si Yu, why don't you go play with everyone." Song Ming walked to Lu Siyu's side.

"I'm getting old, I can't play with you children." Lu Siyu laughed, half-truth, after all, his relationship with these classmates is also average, and the atmosphere has not changed because of the presence of Song Ming.

"It's true," Song Ming stood beside Lu Siyu, leaning against the wall, "You are more and more like your cousin. I don't know how your cousin is at the border. I heard that the situation at the border is getting more and more serious. I don't know if it's dangerous."

"The situation on the border is very serious?" Lu Siyu asked, he never knew the news.

"Well, it's what Grandpa said." Song Ming didn't notice Lu Siyu's expression, and continued on his own, "It's said that the other party is getting more and more covetous, but my cousin is only the magistrate, as long as he doesn't go to the front line, there shouldn't be any No problem, I hope my cousin will not have an accident."

After all, Song Ming and Zhuang Jinhan are cousins, and they have a good relationship since they were young. It is understandable that they care about Zhuang Jinhan at this moment.

"Will brother Zhuang go to the front?" Lu Siyu asked.

"Probably not," Song Ming said, "Cousin is the magistrate, what are you doing on the front line?"

"It's true, he is the magistrate, what is he going to the front line for?" Lu Siyu repeated, but the tension in his heart did not dissipate, and he was suddenly worried about Zhuang Jinhan's situation.

No matter how serious the situation on the border is, it has nothing to do with Zhuang Jinhan, the magistrate, and he will be fine.

Lu Siyu said it in his heart again and again, but still couldn't help but feel worried about Zhuang Jinhan, as if a big stone was pressing on his heart.
