Shelter in the pastoral

Fang Shujing didn't know that Class A had a special status in everyone's hearts, so she packed up her things and went in to study.

There are more than 20 people in Class A. The oldest person is in his 30s, and the youngest is only eight or nine years old.

He came late and sat in the back seat.

The teacher who gave the lecture was surnamed Wen, he was not tall, he was slightly fat, he was smiling and had a good temper.It is said that he was also a Jinshi, and he had been an official for several years, and finally came back when he didn't adapt to the officialdom.

In fact, what Class A and other classes teach is the same, that is, the traditional Four Books and Five Classics.However, due to the different teachers who teach the class, the understanding of these books is also different.

What Fang Shujing didn't understand before was understood after a short explanation, and he took notes while listening.Wait for a class to finish.The teacher left, and the rest of the students gathered together in twos and threes to discuss the class.

Fang Shujing was next to him, and no one paid any attention to him, treating him as air.

There was no enthusiasm for the new classmates at all, and after a brief chat, everyone went out to eat.

Only Fang Shujing was left.

The extreme rejection made Fang Shujing a little surprised. Fortunately, he is at this age, and he has been relatively indifferent to many things in the past two generations. He came to Shanlin Academy to study. It is good to make friends. It doesn’t matter if he can’t make friends. .

With his expression unchanged, he put his notes on the table and tidied them up, and went out to eat in style.

After Fang Shujing went out, he inquired about the little boy who was sweeping the floor here, and only then did he know the location of the dining room here.

You have to pay for the taxi in the dining room, you can drink the soup for free, and the steamed buns cost six pennies, but the food is much more expensive.One meat and one vegetable plus steamed buns cost [-] Wen, and two meat and one vegetarian cost [-] Wen.

Fang Shujing was not too hungry, so she ate steamed buns worth a penny and sat on the far side with a spoonful of free soup.

Then I saw Senior Brother Song saying: "Brother Fang, how are you?" .Most of them also know that he has been ostracized.I thought Fang Shujing would be wronged and angry, but Fang Shujing said calmly, "It's okay."

Brother Song whispered: "The students in Class A are more arrogant, so don't take it too seriously."

Fang Shujing hummed.

Seeing that he was eating so vegetarian, Senior Brother Song said, "We only have two meals a day in the library, and the next meal will be dark. You can't get enough if you eat this. If you don't come here before the meal time, it will be very expensive." The price of pot dishes is different from that of small stoves.

Fang Shujing felt a little emotional, no wonder everyone said that studying costs money, and after entering the Shanlin Academy, everything will cost money.It is said that those rich scholars who live in a small courtyard have to spend money to buy firewood.It is estimated that it will cost hundreds of taels in a year to go from Shuxiu to a small courtyard, and then to daily food, drink and pen and ink.

Fang Shujing said: "Not too hungry." He was not that keen on eating. In the past, he mainly liked to cook for his daughter-in-law, and he didn't eat much by himself.

Brother Song said: "What do you study in Class A?" He is not very talented, and it is a lucky thing to be able to stay in Class B. He is very curious about what Class A studies in school.

Fang Shujing said: "It's also the Four Books and Five Classics." In the imperial examination, most of the questions are given on this, and it is not only required to memorize it, but also to master it.In the end, it can be used at will, which proves that the book has been thoroughly understood.

Senior Brother Song yelled twice, and Fang Shujing became more and more curious. He said that a student was airborne to Class A, and Shanlin Academy was boiling all of a sudden. There are still related households in places like Class A.

I thought he was a person from a very prominent family, but who knew that Fang Shujing lived in a room with eight people, didn't even bring a book boy or entourage, and only ate the cheapest food when he came to the dining room, which made him a little confused.

Fang Shujing chatted with Senior Brother Song, and Senior Brother Song told him everything he knew, and soon let Fang Shujing know the names and tempers of the various gentlemen in the academy.

The people in class A looked at it with a bit of disdain.

In the past, there were also people who got carried away when they were promoted from class B, but they failed the exam and had to be sent back to the original class.This is the rule under the head of the mountain!

It's nothing if he can come in, as long as he can stay for a long time.

After Fang Shu finished eating, he washed the dinner plate and put it there.Back to Class A.Someone there has already started writing questions.There is no teacher to give questions, they ask each other by themselves, and the atmosphere of learning is very strong.Fang Shujing also took out the notes from the previous class to read and deepen his memory.

After a while, Mr. Luo entered the room.This gentleman is knowledgeable but arrogant.When he was young, he was also a well-known talent.He wants to scold all the injustices in the world, so he is not optimistic about officials. If a person like him becomes an official, will he not be scolded every day?As a result, he lost the election when he was in Chunwei. At that time, many people said that some officials secretly tampered with it, otherwise, with his articles back then, he would have been able to get close to the top three!

Mr. Luo gave up the exam in a fit of anger, and came here to become a teacher.

He is the senior brother of the county magistrate, Fang Shujing thought it was right for him to come back, otherwise he might die if he enters the officialdom with such a temperament, he might as well be a wild crane, teaching and drinking.

Mr. Luo saw Fang Shujing and said, "Here we come."

Fang Shujing said: "Mr. Luo is good."

The other students in Class A all looked at each other in blank dismay. This new student was so respectable that even Mr. Luo would greet him when he saw him.

All kinds of thoughts and conspiracy theories came to mind.Everyone in Class A is talented, and they are most proud of their talents. No matter what their status is, they can see the truth in their studies!

Mr. Luo said: "Today we will take a random exam." As soon as the voice fell, before we could say anything, everyone shouted happily and almost knocked over the roof of the house.Holding back his energy, he wanted to show Fang Shujing, an airborne transfer student, some color, but he didn't expect to think about it.There are really exams.

Mr. Luo took a look at everyone, they were all from a young age, and he was very clear about their petty thoughts, and said: "The exam question is about how to govern the county."

The smiles of the students in Class A froze on the spot. This question is not the usual type at all.

In the past, I would extract a classic sentence from the Four Books and Five Classics.Let everyone expand and write according to different ideas.

Writing on the same topic is especially easy to compare.

Mr. Luo said: "Your basic skills are very solid. Those in the past are no longer difficult for you. It is not the point to pass the imperial examination. After passing the exam, you will become an official in the future. How to integrate the things in the textbooks into the ordinary people's life? Bringing blessings, this is the purpose of Shanlin Academy to train you."

Now that the old emperor is old, the prince is ambitious. The two disaster relief and bridge building he presided over can show that the prince is a man of action.

The old emperor's body might not be able to sustain the spring, and even if the article is beautiful, it is just a penmanship.They are going to focus on some practical articles now, maybe they can stand out among the many candidates.

This question was not created by Mr. Luo himself, but by Shan Chang, so there is no preparation to test everyone's level.

It's just that there was a change, Fang Shujing was a transfer, just in time.

Seeing the sad faces of the students in Class A, you can know how difficult this is.

They are always studying knowledge, writing poems and writing essays, and by the way, writing some articles on current affairs. They have never gone to the fields to observe what the county is like. They have never revealed such a topic before, and now they are suddenly asked to write. There is a feeling of building a castle in the air, and I don't know how to write it!

Mr. Luo said: "Submit the paper in an hour, and review it on the spot." As soon as the words fell, the students in Class A felt even more stressed.

One hour is not enough, they haven't chosen where to cut in yet.Besides, the development of the county is a big problem, which can cover all aspects of life, and it is simply impossible to start, it is too difficult.

Fang Shujing was taken aback when he heard this topic.

Shanlin Academy does have a lot of talent, no wonder so many students are able to pass the exam every year.There are people in the court, and the grasp of various wind directions is far beyond ordinary people.

Fang Shujing pondered for a while, and then began to write.

He has already written a few lines, and there are still many people in Class A who haven't started writing yet.

There is also a nine-year-old child prodigy in their class. Let him recite poems well, let him plan the future of a county, but he is still crushed by experience.

The nine-year-old child prodigy is poking a pen at a loss.

When Mr. Luo passed by, he deliberately avoided his eyes asking for help, and he was more or less bullying him by asking this question.

Mr. Luo went back and forth for examinations.Every time I see a student who hasn't written yet, I will tap his desk twice with my finger as a reminder.

The people here are all famous scholars, and there are two young students, but today's paper test is indeed the topic of the Jinshi test back then.

When Shan Chang came up with this set of questions, he still felt that it was too early, but seeing the appearance of this group of heaven's favored children in trouble, he felt that Shan Chang was still famous.Let them tighten the strings in advance.Otherwise, they will write a few poems and memorize some articles, and then they will start to get carried away, which is not possible.

When a group of people were in a difficult situation, Fang Shujing was extremely eye-catching. He wrote vigorously there without a single pause.

Fang Shujing used to be a businessman, but later went to the countryside. For the planning and development of the county, he emphasized agriculture, lightened taxes, stimulated consumption, and reinvested the money he earned into market construction.

I can't stop writing one by one.

I couldn't write on one sheet of paper, and finally finished it after filling up a little bit on the second sheet.

After Fang Shujing finished writing, he checked it several times. He did not use any prohibited words or made any mistakes, so he handed in the paper.

Several people had submitted papers before him.

Reading through ten thousand volumes is as good as writing. Although the other students in Class A have never governed the county, they have read a lot of books. They can draw from gourds and write a few paragraphs of quotations in the middle of their own imagination. It can be regarded as a beautiful flower group.

Mr. Luo likes this kind of article the most, and he will definitely get a high score if he passes it.

These students know Mr. Luo very well. Mr. Luo read it first, and he really likes this kind of article.

These students are worthy of being the key training class A, and their reactions are too fast.Facing a topic that has never been touched before, it is very good to be able to produce such a high-quality article within a limited time.

After the time is up, no matter how it is written, even if it is a blank paper, it must be taught first.

Mr. Luo reviewed it on the spot. Some people's writing was obviously off topic, and Mr. Luo couldn't stand it anymore.They dropped their scrolls, but their eyes lit up when they saw Fang Shujing's writing.

He is also a scholar, he has read a few years more than the students in Class A, and he is still very keen in the face of good things.

The articles written by Fang Shujing are full of content, not vague at all, the articles are concise, and the volume is also clean.Both the countryside and the county town have proposed unique developments, and I was even a little excited when I read it. After reading his writing and comparing it with the ones that Mr. Luo thought were good before, it was nothing.

Mr. Luo immediately wrote a first-class word on Fang Shujing's paper.

After reading his, and looking at other people, they are all just talking on paper.The selection was made on the spot: "For this exam, Fang Shujing is the leader!"

With a swish, everyone looked over.

They brought over the article written by Fang Shujing and read it.

Everyone is an elite among scholars, so they can see the weight of this article.

What he wrote can be taken out and used directly.Very thoughtful and well written, although there are no quotations, but the use is very accurate, the most simple and straightforward for everyone to understand.There are even some associations, if it is really like what he wrote in his article, if wealth is concentrated to do big things, the lives of ordinary people will be better.

"It's amazing." Although the students in Class A are arrogant, they are also the most reasonable. Once they find that the other party is really outstanding, they will be convinced.

The papers were quickly put away, and Mr. Luo put away the article.Said: "Bring Fang Shujing's share."

Only then did they reluctantly take the things back.

Mr. Luo carried the article and left.

Fang Shujing, who was always ignored by no one, was suddenly surrounded and said, "Have you written similar articles before? It's really good."

"Let's discuss, if we really do what you wrote in your article, will the common people live and work in peace and contentment and live better like what you wrote in your article."

"Where did you study before, why didn't you pass the entrance exam?"

Fang Shujing's writing is very simple, but everything is hidden inside. The people in Class A are all people who can recite the Four Books and Five Classics backwards. It can be seen at a glance that Fang Shujing usually reads no fewer books than them.

Fang Shujing said a few words.

These people are even more enthusiastic.I have to break the casserole and ask the end.

There is no class in the afternoon.Everyone can study in the house, or go back to the dormitory.

Fang Shujing was surrounded and went back.

At the same time, Mr. Luo took all the papers this time to the head of the mountain.

After reading one by one, the head of the mountain picked up Fang Shujing's articles and said, "That's right, it's not too fast, it's not too slow, it's even and stable, and it's really very thoughtful."

Mr. Luo said: "Now the students in our library are getting better from generation to generation."

The head of the mountain stroked his beard and said, with a smile on the corner of his mouth.Class A performed very well this time, and after studying for a while, it will definitely improve.

The one who recommended Shujing to study here and directly enter Class A was not the magistrate that Fang Shujing thought, the head of the mountain came from a two-list Jinshi, and now he is still an official in the court. Impress him.

What really caught Shanzhang's attention was the letter of recommendation from Lord Hou.Young Lord Hou is the son of a loyal and brave general.Now the old prince is seriously ill, and the several princes are fighting fiercely. Which side the Zhongyong general takes will affect the situation.

Fang Shujing, whom he recommended, naturally refused to be slighted.I want to try putting him in class A first.If it is really not to take a piece of material and then call back.Unexpectedly, the scholar who came on the first day brought him the biggest surprise.

Shanchang is in a good mood.

Fang Shujing returned to the dormitory.This is a Chase shop.Counting him, there are only four people, and the occupancy is not full yet.

The other three are also from Class A.The short one was named Chen Laoshi, the tall one was named Ning Huairen, and the other was named Liu Lin.A few of them are small households, and their lives are okay among the common people, but they have to work hard here.So choose multiple rooms.

Chen Laoshi said, "Where is your home?"

"Qingshui Village."

Ning Huairen opened his eyes wide: "Are you from the village?" It doesn't look like it.See his current demeanor.I thought it was the little boy of which family.

Liu Lin said: "Then why don't you take the examination for scholar?"

"I will take the exam next year." Fang Shujing said.

Liu Lindao: "That's really a pity, we can't take the exam together."

Fang Shujing was slightly surprised: "Are you all going to end next year?"

"Yes." Except for Fang Shujing, they have all stayed here for at least three years.Examination for Juren is not like a scholar, so you have to go to the provincial examination.At that time, talented scholars from all the academies in the province will go to participate.They also have only a [-]% chance of passing the exam.Even Mr. Luo said that the main thing is to let them experience it.So everyone was a little flustered by the sudden change of the question type today.

"The time is running out." Fang Shujing said.

Liu Lindao: "Hey, if you are not busy, tell me what the countryside is like. If you ask such a question again, you won't lose your eyes."

"Yes, yes, take me one."

"And me, I can cook for you tomorrow."

Fang Shujing said: "No problem."

There is a big round table in the room, on which you can read or write or draw.

Fang Shujing began to write letters.

It's just a little bit of my own free time and I don't know what the little daughter-in-law is doing?Fang Shujing put pen to paper and began to write.

Originally, everyone was busy with their own work, but seeing Fang Shujing working so hard, they couldn't help being curious: "What are you doing?"

Fang Shujing said: "Write a letter from home."

Liu Lin laughed beside him and said, "What kind of family letter are you writing? I think you are writing a love letter."

Fang Shujing smiled and said, "That's right."

"Ah, I want to see." Although those present were already admitted to the scholar exam, they were not yet married, and their families would not let them, fearing that their marriage would delay their studies. Everyone was the same, but when Fang Shujing came, they broke up. this balance.

Fang Shujing said: "The letter can only be read by me and my wife." When Liu Yechen was mentioned, he couldn't help but smile a little.

"Are you married?" Fang Shujing was young, handsome, and gentle.And I haven't passed the exam yet. When I get admitted to Juren in the future, what can I do to find a lady from a rich family.

Fang Shujing said: "I'm afraid he will be married off by others." His young daughter-in-law is very likable.

Liu Lin, Chen Laoshi and Ning Huairen watched Fang Shujing's thirst for knowledge light up their eyes again, and said, "How about getting married?" As three young chickens, Fang Shujing's status was reversed all of a sudden, and he became a housewife. The awesome characters inside.

……

It was four days later when Liu Yechen received Fang Shujing's letter.

Xu Quan said: "Young Madam, I have your letter." He just got it from the messenger, and he also paid two Wen for the errand fee.

Liu Yechen didn't think about food and drink these few days, she was thinner than before the young master left, and her chin became sharper.The food at home plummeted, and Liu Yechen neither ate nor cooked.Occasionally, Fang's sent some food and left it uneaten for a day or two before being eaten by him.

When Liu Yechen heard Fang Shujing's letter, he immediately put on a smile: "Let me see."

Then he took the letter and went into the house.

He carefully opened Fang Shujing's letter, with a cautious look as if he was opening some treasure.

It was quickly opened, and the letter on the top of the letter described the appearance of the new academy.He watched with gusto.Although he had never been to a school in his life, he went to his husband-in-law, and he described it in detail in the letter as if he had also been there.

Continuing to look at it, Liu Yechen's cheeks turned red.

He blushed and his heart beat when he read a letter, which said he wanted to kiss him.

Liu Yechen's heart started to beat wildly, how could he say such unscrupulous things in the letter.

Liu Yechen's ears also felt a little hot.

What if this letter is seen by others?

What a shame.

Liu Yechen picked up the pen and wanted to write him a reply letter.But he still hesitated and didn't know what to write.The ink blot turned into a small black dot and landed on the paper.

Xianggong's words still linger in his mind.

In fact, he also wanted to be kissed.

I took out the letter and read it again, the emotion was too strong.

At this time, Ah Huang yelled at the door.

Liu Yechen hid the letter under the bed.Pick up the puppy.In just a few days, the puppy has grown a lot.The newly weaned cub is also conscientious in looking after the house on weekdays, and especially likes to hang out with Liu Yechen.

And only Liu Yechen would hug it if nothing happened.The little one is happy to be picked up.

Thanks to Fang Shujing who gave him a puppy before he left, you can talk to it when you have something in your heart.Although the little guy couldn't understand, his cute black eyes seemed to be healed when he looked at it.

Liu Yechen hugged him and whispered, "Let's write him a reply letter, shall we?"

"Wang." Ah Huang agreed.

Liu Yechen has a shy personality, and she can't say many love words, but she can write them with a pen.A letter is full of lingering and longing.At the end of the inscription, the childlike innocence painted some ink on the dog paw pads and printed them.Said that the whole family misses him very much.

But after writing the letter, he was afraid of affecting his studies, so he didn't send it out.

Liu Yechen found that life became difficult after getting married.In the past, it was fine to live alone for so many years.Since getting married, she has become more hypocritical, thinking about Fang Shujing every day, she can't fall asleep.

Liu Yechen's letter was not sent, and Fang Shujing sent a new letter after a while, complaining that Liu Yechen didn't write to him, missed him very much, and said that he would deal with him after returning home!

Liu Yechen's cheeks turned redder.
