An alpha's ancient life record

Lying on the bed at night, the bright moon shines in front of the No. [-] room, it is extraordinarily bright, Shen Qingshu stared blankly for a while, then suddenly remembered that today is August [-]th.

Mid-Autumn Festival, she almost forgot, the exam took up all her energy, leaving her no time to care about others.

It is said that the moon is sixteen round on the fifteenth day, Shen Qingshu poked her probe, but she was in the wrong direction and couldn't see the moon at all.

At this time in previous years, most of their families were at the Summer Resort, a place surrounded by mountains and rivers, with very beautiful scenery.In the evening, set up a table under the sweet-scented osmanthus tree, set out moon cakes, sweet-scented osmanthus wine, and fresh fruits such as pears, pomegranates, and dates.

The empty mountain is silent, and the musicians are ordered to play the flute, and the music is melodious. The family members sit and chat with each other, enjoying the flowers and the moon.When the moon is in the middle of the sky, an altar will be set up in the atrium, and incense will be burned to worship the moon and pray to the moon.

It is generally prayed that she will pass the scientific examination as soon as possible. This year she is married, and she must be blessed with a lot of children.

Sometimes I have already gone back to Jingzhongbo’s Mansion, and that night I have to go to see the lanterns. On the Luoshui that passes through the city, there are tens of thousands of small sheepskin water lanterns that are "red" floating on the water. The flowing water is rippling, as brilliant as the sky full of stars, reflecting the bright moon in the water, like a dream.

On this day, both men and women will go out, and there are many tourists on both sides of the river. If unmarried young people, if they like someone, they can give the other party a water lamp.

It can be regarded as an ancient version of a blind date meeting. In the year when Shen Peili got married, it was the first time for Shen Qingshu to see a lantern. For some unknown reason, he almost accepted a water lantern from another girl's house and made a joke.

Thinking of this, Shen Qingshu smiled a little, wondering where they spent the Mid-Autumn Festival and the reunion festival this year, so they must be thinking of her now.

And Lin Weizhi, she just got married this year, and has been part of the Shen family ever since, so she can't spend the Mid-Autumn Festival with her parents, and I don't know if she can get used to it and feel homesick.

Thinking of these, she gradually fell asleep.

This was what she was good at, and she was quick to answer it. When she got up the next day, Shen Qingshu habitually checked it twice, corrected a small calculation error, and finished answering all the papers for the third round.

You can't hand in the papers in advance after answering, you have to wait until the end of the exam at dusk.Shen Qingshu leaned against the wall, yawning non-stop.

She obviously slept last night, but she still felt very sleepy and tired, but if she wanted to continue to sleep, her temples were throbbing again, and she couldn't fall asleep at all.

After staying like this until dusk, the scrolls were finally collected, but they couldn't go out immediately, and the Gongyuan would not open until tomorrow morning.

Shen Qingshu's scalp was very itchy, so he used a comb dipped in clean water to comb it several times before he felt comfortable.Then I brushed my teeth and washed my face as usual, and wiped my neck and shoulders with a damp cloth.

Guan Yiming was paralyzed aside watching her series of movements, and slowly raised his hand to give a thumbs up, "Brother Shen, I really admire you, you still have strength."

"This way you can be more energetic." Shen Qingshu took off the veil, she was shocked by the cold water, and finally she was not so muddled.

Taking the opportunity, she moved her stove to the alley and started a fire to cook ginseng soup.

She was very hungry, but she was too sick to drink porridge.

Picking and picking among the few remaining foods, Shen Qingshu also found some leftover beef jerky.

"Do you want to eat?" She handed it to Guan Yiming.

Guan Yiming hesitated for a while, but nodded, sat up and took a small piece, and chewed the taste weakly and slowly in his mouth for fun.

The water in the stove boiled, and the heat steamed out. The two squatted side by side, looking at the water vapor in unison.

The candidates around were all similar, one counted as one, and they all sat slumped at the base of the wall, their eyes staring blankly.

The nine-day exam was really exhausting.

The two were no longer interested in chatting, and when the ginseng soup was ready to drink-a bowl, they each moved the wooden boards into the alley, closed their eyes and fell asleep, waiting for the dawn.

Shen Qingshu was in a half-dream and half-awake state all night, as if he was asleep and dreaming, and he seemed to be able to hear the movements around him.

When dawn broke, the surroundings suddenly became noisy. When Shen Qingshu woke up, he heard that the door was open outside, and a line had already started inside. She quickly got up and went back to get her test basket, and lined up in the line.

There was a lot of people outside the tribute courtyard, and there were relatives of candidates waiting everywhere.Shen Qing stepped out of the door, looked at the ray of red light in the sky, breathed the fresh air brought by the morning breeze, and felt as if he had been reborn.

"Master," Uncle Liu had been waiting outside, and when he saw her, he ran over immediately, squatting in front of her and said, "The carriage is over there. You can't stop at the gate of the Gongyuan. Master, I will carry you on my back." past."

Shen Qingshu was a little embarrassed to be carried on the back after being an adult, but she really couldn't walk right now, so she hesitated for a while, and then lay on Uncle Liu's back.

In fact, this is quite normal. Candidates who came out were either held up or carried on their backs, and some were carried out.Every year in the rural examination, there will be dozens of people who can't hold back and get sick. This year, there was heavy rain, and the number of sick candidates was even higher.

At the side of the carriage, just as Uncle Liu let her down, he heard Guan Yiming calling her from behind.

"Brother Shen!"

She looked back, and saw a middle-aged man coming over with Guan Yiming on his back. He was wearing a ochre-colored robe. easy to find."

Shen Qingshu smiled weakly, "I'm sorry, I didn't notice you when I came out in a hurry, is there anything else?"

Guan Yiming asked: "I only know you here, and I don't know which inn you are staying in, brother Shen. How can I find you in the future?"

The two of them were candidates from other places, they knew each other during the college examination, and they had been through hardships in the past few days in the rural examination. He felt that there was a lot of fate, and he was very happy to make friends with Shen Qingshu.

Shen Qingshu replied: "I live in Jidi Building."

Guan Yiming thought about it, and was a little pleasantly surprised, "It's not far from the yard I rented. I'll visit Brother Shen some other day."

Shen Qingshu nodded, and the two of them bid farewell.

Back at Jidi Building, Shen Qingshu took a shower and ate some food before falling asleep.

At this time, she fell into a deep sleep, and when Shen Qingshu opened her eyes again, it was already the morning of the second day.

She was sweating, feeling sore all over, sitting up and stretching, her joints were crackling.I got out of bed and walked around a few times, did some basic warm-up exercises, stretched my legs and feet, and felt better.

Uncle Liu watched over her all night, and now he changed to a saddle to watch over her. Seeing that she was awake, he hurriedly brought out the food.

After sleeping for one day, she had a big appetite, and ate two bowls of rice with vegetables, and ate a few green dates.She didn't like to eat green vegetables very much before, but she couldn't eat them in the Gongyuan, and she missed bacon and sausage all day long.

After eating, she took a bath again. I don't know if it was due to psychological factors, but she always felt that she still stinks.

In the evening, Uncle Liu came back from inquiring about the news, and said that there were nearly a hundred people in their department who had fever and cold, and there were not enough doctors in the city, and there were some weak students who couldn't survive last night and had already left.

He said it with lingering fears, and was glad that Shen Qingshu was not sick.

Shen Qingshu couldn't help being silent, she knew that some students insisted on taking the exam when they were sick, it was a gamble with their lives.She thinks it's worthless. Comparing the two, there is only one life, and there is another time for the provincial examination. If the life is gone, what's the use of winning the exam?

But fame and fortune move people's hearts, and they always make people feel lucky.

The next day, Guan Yiming came over and invited her to play nearby.

"The students who took the exam are all anxiously waiting for the rankings to be published. Brother Guan is still thinking about going out." Shen Qingshu looked at him a few times, and saw that he had regained his vigor. He was wearing a sky blue brocade robe with a sachet around his waist. Holding a jade fan in his hand, he held a personable person, and said with a smile: "Brother Guan looks like this, should he have a plan in mind?"

Guan Yi smiled and said nothing, obviously he answered very well.

Shen Qingshu waved his hand and refused, "Brother Guan is extremely talented, I'm not as good as I am. I'm a mediocre person, not as free and easy as Brother Guan, and I'm afraid I won't be able to enjoy myself if I pretend to be doing something, so I don't want to go."

"How can life be so boring?" Guan Yiming put away his fan, but he refused, and persuaded him, "There are still more than ten days left to publish the list, and the wait is useless. The days in Gongyuan really suffocate me. It's so hot in Fucheng. Wouldn’t it be a good idea to travel nearby to escape the summer heat? If the Mid-Autumn Festival hadn’t passed and the days were too late, I’d still like to go to Haining to watch the tide of the Qiantang River!”

Shen Qingshu was a little embarrassed, but it wasn't all because of this reason.Although it wasn't long before the last susceptibility period, it is likely to come again after the exam.She had already agreed with Lin Weizhi to meet up in Fucheng after the rural examination.Because Lin Weizhi hadn't had time to go back to her hometown to look up the genealogy after she married her, so this time she went back to her hometown by the way, and she had a legitimate reason to be with the old Liu family.

Shen Qingshu smiled sheepishly, and cupped his hands to apologize: "Brother Guan, to tell the truth, in fact, my wife is coming over in a few days, and I have to wait in Fucheng."

"I said, it turns out that Brother Shen's family has a beautiful family member, tsk tsk, and the township examination is still to follow." Guan Yiming suddenly realized, showing an ambiguous smile, "Brother Shen, if this is the case, how can you participate in the same year's party after the results are announced? "

Shen Qingshu was stunned for a moment, feeling overjoyed, she almost forgot about this. On the night when the rankings were released, there was a literary meeting among the new imperial examination candidates. It was said to be a literary meeting, but it was actually similar to those in the capital city. They knew each other in the same year. , contact feelings, expand contacts, eat, drink and have fun, of course, the women of Qinlou and Chuguan are indispensable.

With Lin Wei only here, she had reason to evade it openly.

She was happy in her heart, and just said haha, "Brother Guan is thinking too far, and he is not sure if he will hit or not."

Guan Yiming's face showed a bit of arrogance, "Brother Shen, you are too modest, I dare to say that you and I will surely succeed in learning."

Shen Qingshu said helplessly: "The list hasn't been posted yet, brother Guan should be more careful, and be careful not to bring misfortune out of your mouth."

Guan Yiming laughed, "Of course I know, it's not just you and me here."

Shen Qingshu shook her head, she felt that Guan Yiming was too trusting of others, the two of them had only met each other a few times, the time they spent together was still short, and they still didn't fully understand each other's personality.They are all candidates for the provincial examination, and they can be regarded as competitors. If she is a small belly, she might go to report Guan Yiming, accuse him of cheating in the imperial examination, and get through the examiner and say that she will pass.

But she doesn't know that sometimes the fate between people is hard to tell.The first time Guan Yiming talked with her, he remembered the sentence he had read in the book, "The moon is shining brightly, the river is shining together, and the outside and inside are both clear."Really hit it off.

When we met again this time, I felt that the two had similar temperaments and intended to meet each other.

"That's it, Brother Shen," Guan Yiming pondered for a while, then unfolded his fan "shua", and said with a smile: "Chuzhou is mountainous, we don't go far, it's okay to go today and return today."

He was so persistent, Shen Qingshu had no choice but to nod.

The author has something to say: May Day is coming, try to have more QVQ during May Day.
