Northern Xinjiang has no way of knowing what happened in Anshui County.
Anshui County has not heard anything about what happened in Northern Xinjiang.
At this moment, Jiang Sheng and his brothers were guarding the gate of Gongyuan, surrounded by the equally nervous family members of the students, staring at the gate of Gongyuan with excitement.
After a long time, the two wooden doors slowly opened.
Under the gaze of everyone, a student in his thirties rushed out of the Gongyuan. He looked excited. As soon as he came out, he turned around and shouted three times as if to vent his anger.
A woman in the crowd also rushed over excitedly. Just as she was about to stand firm, the student held her and spun her around three times.
One shouted, "Lady."
One sobbed, "Mr.
At this moment, no one thought they were immoral, and no one thought they were overly excited.
Surviving the nine-day examination is a feat in itself and a kind of persistence in itself.
"Nearly 500 students came from the entire Anshui County for this exam, but only more than 300 people persisted." Zheng Ruqian whispered in Jiang Sheng's ear.
Other students either concentrated on studying and were too weak to last for nine days, or they just couldn't write anymore after a few days and abandoned their pens in anger and left.
Although only a few dozen of these more than 300 students could stand out in the end, it was not easy for them to survive the nine-day examination, during which they were unable to lie down for six days and had to sit up and sleep with their clothes on.
Jiang Sheng pursed his lips and said nothing.
Compared to the concern and persistence of Zheng Ruqian and others, she was more curious about the subtle air fluctuations around the student couple.
It was as if something strange was overflowing from their bodies and spreading in all directions.
It's a pity that she is too young and has no one to teach her. She doesn't know that this kind of thing is called mutual love.
After the thirty-year-old students came out, countless students emerged from the Gongyuan one after another. Most of them were in high spirits, some were dejected, and a few were carried out.
The brothers and sisters were heartbroken again.
The exam lasted for nine days. The first six days had already made Xu Mo lose weight. In the last three days, I heard that the questions were so difficult that several students almost vomited blood. I don't know if Xu Mo could survive it.
Fortunately, at the moment when there was a huge crowd, Xu Mo appeared in sight carrying a test basket.
He had indeed lost weight again, but he had done too much manual labor in the ruined temple. Although his body was thin, his bones were strong, and he was lean, which was different from being sickly and weak.
Seeing his younger siblings, he quickly raised his lips and smiled.
But Jiang Sheng did not rush forward recklessly. Instead, he carefully glanced at the test basket, as if he was afraid of knocking over something.
Xu Mo laughed and said, "No, it has been poured out."
During the three consecutive days of exams, the small chamber pots were always full, and the students were not allowed to leave the exam site, so the chamber pots before the end of the exam were all emptied by the Anshui County government officials.
However, there are too many students taking exams and the number of government officials is limited. At the end of the exam, there are always some students who fail to empty out in time, so they have to go to the greenhouse to empty out.
Xu Mo was pretty lucky. Before the exam ended, Yuan Yamen happened to pass by. After all, they had a friendship, so he kindly emptied the toilet bowl for Xu Xiucai.
"That's great, you don't have to worry about big brother's poop or urine anymore." Zheng Ruqian grinned stupidly.
After being glared at by Jiang Sheng, he put away his smile and reported the situation seriously, "Brother, I bought a villa in Xiaofu Village, dug a cellar, stored a lot of ice, and hired a lot of people. , in the future, we will specialize in transporting all kinds of valuable things."
Although the price was two thousand taels of silver notes, Huadi only had 800 taels left.
"Brother, Wen's Medical Clinic has already gained its own reputation and has begun to make a profit." Wen Zhiyun pursed his lips and explained in a low voice.
Chang Yan spread his hands and said, "Brother Fufeng has gone to Mount Tai. I'm helping him handle the affairs of the Wang family."
Although it is not recorded in the accounts, the benefits brought by managing the entire family are difficult to measure in terms of money.
Even Jiang Sheng tilted his head and said, "Brother, all the bacon and bacon in the workshop have been sold. The weather is getting hotter and the output will be reduced. Auntie is already preparing to study other things."
Xu Mo nodded slightly. While he was struggling in the Gongyuan, his younger brothers and sisters did not waste their time.
Each of them is working hard to move forward, no matter whether the steps are small or big, no matter whether there is profit or not, as long as there is progress compared to the previous self, it proves that time has not been wasted.
"Okay, everything is fine." Xu Mo looked up to the north, "I believe that the third child in Northern Xinjiang will also be fine."
The brothers and sisters got on the carriage and hurried back to Hairpin Flower Courtyard.
The Juren Examination is different from the Child Student Examination or the Scholar Examination. Because it is of great importance and is the last hurdle for the local government, it is taken very seriously. Therefore, the results will be released for a longer period of time.
It takes half a month to release the results for the Children's Student Examination and the Scholarship Examination, and more than a month for the Juren Examination.
After returning to Hairpin Flower Courtyard.
Xu Mo did not take it lightly after the examination, but continued to study the Four Books and Five Classics, even re-reading the books he had read when he was a child.
He was as serious as before the exam, and his motivation to study never weakened.
Jiang Sheng took his second brother, fourth brother and fifth brother and peeped outside for a long time before quietly retreating with his buttocks in his mouth.
Xu Mo once said that there is no end to learning, as long as you live, you will learn. He also taught his younger brothers and sisters a lesson with his actions.
Zheng Ruqian clenched his fists, "I'm going to hire people right away and try to transport the line from Anshui County to Danyang County before my brother releases the results."
Wen Zhiyun also picked up the small medicine box seriously, "I'm going to Xieyang County. Recently, I found some problems while diagnosing the patient's pulse. I want to go to Dr. Wu for advice."
Chang Yan spread his hands and said, "Then I will take care of the Wang family before brother Fufeng comes back."
The small courtyard that was bustling just now has returned to calm.
Jiang Sheng stood in the yard, feeling a little uncomfortable for no reason.
She didn't like reading at first, and she was quite satisfied with just a workshop, but her brothers' efforts made her feel ashamed. After hesitating for a moment, she returned to the room, picked up the miscellaneous books given by her eldest brother, and started reading carefully.
night.
Aunt Zhang made chicken soup noodles and served them to the children. Seeing them purring like piglets, she smiled happily, "This chicken soup is made from fresh old hens and is simmered on the fire for half a day until the bones and meat are crispy." I made it, simmered it to create a rich chicken soup flavor, and then used egg flour and the hand-made noodles to make the dough, which was strong and fragrant. Does it taste authentic?"
If this was normal, Jiang Sheng would have swallowed it while nodding.
But today, she remembered seeing a dish of boiled noodles in a miscellany, and whispered, "The noodles made by my aunt are delicious, but Jiang Sheng read in a book that boiled noodles can also make people want to stop, and she didn't know. What a divine smell it is.”
Zhang Xianglian was startled, rarely convinced, "How can noodles cooked in plain water be delicious?"
Jiang Sheng scratched his head and recounted from his memories, "The book says that the chicken is first marinated for a day, then dried in the sun, and finally ground into powder and added to the noodles. Even if it is boiled in white water, it tastes very delicious."
But how do you dry the chicken, grind it into powder, and mix it into the noodles?
