"Okay! But Sister Yuan, I still want to ask Brother Junzi to continue studying. They say that you will learn as long as you live. Brother Junzi also attended a private school for several years when he was young, and it is not too late to pick up the books now.
It doesn't matter if he is admitted to the imperial examination or the like, as long as he can be admitted as a scholar. I'm afraid that when the famine years are over and we come back, we will have to do hard labor here from time to time. Repair official roads, build dikes, dig rivers, mend city walls... Hey, no matter where you are, without fame, corvee service is inevitable! "
No one wants to do this. Serving as a slave is no joke.
Just like mending a city wall, the base of the city wall needs stone strips.
Then someone would have to go to the mountain to quarry the stone, then transport it down the mountain, and then transport it back to the city gate.
If you are not careful, you will be hit with stones and your flesh and blood will be bruised.
No matter what kind of labor, there is nothing easy to say.
She didn't want her man, and her future heirs, to have to do hard labor.
Li Yuan thought about the persistence of the old house, and then thought about the frustration of every family in the memory of the original owner every time he went to work.
There are also those who did not come back in the end, and the scene of hanging white sails at home also nodded heavily.
"Okay, I will talk to him about this when I go back soon. During this period, we will take care of the marriage. Let's see when we look back and see if Brother Xie can find time to teach Junzi. Let's try our best to teach Junzi next year. Take part in the Tongsheng trial."
The so-called Tongsheng Examination refers to county examination, government examination and hospital examination.
As long as you pass the county examination and the government examination, you can be called a child student, and you are truly qualified to refer to the imperial examination.
At this time, as long as you pass the college examination, you are a scholar.
The county examination is conducted in the county and is conducted by the county magistrate. It is held every year and is scheduled in February. Generally, there are four to five examinations.
The prefectural examination is scheduled in April, and is only presided over by the prefects of each state. There are three examinations in total.
The content is like the Four Books and Five Classics. Of course, policy and analysis are essential.
The first place in the government examination, called the head of the case, can directly obtain the title of scholar, or in layman's terms, it can be recommended as a scholar.
Those who pass the provincial examination can take the provincial examination, called the college examination. Hosted by the academic administration, it is held twice every three years.
There happens to be a college examination next year. If Li Jun goes well in the first two games, he can directly participate in the college examination.
If you are lucky, you can get the title of scholar, and from now on, you no longer have to worry about corvee.
Wang Can knows that it is not easy to take the exam for merit and fame. Some people have been taking the exam for a lifetime, and they are not even a child.
She didn't ask Li Jun to pass the exam next year, she just hoped that he could give it a try.
When she heard that Li Yuan was willing to help persuade her, she felt relieved and said.
"Sister Yuan, as long as Brother Junzi is willing to pick up books again, it will be fine. We can't say how much hope we have for him. Not next year, and the year after that, but in short, take your time. Also, are we right now? Do we have to ask them to take time to exercise every day?”
She said, and lowered her voice again: "In this world from now on, there will be a lot of chaos outside. If you don't have any skills, you will suffer. Brother Junzi may be better. His escorts are not good at all. But thank you Xiucai is a weak scholar, Sister Yuan, would you like to mention it?"
Li Yuan nodded as she thought of Xie Yan's hands not being strong enough to tie a chicken and his shoulders not being strong enough to carry firewood.
"Okay, then when we live in Lijia'ao, let Junzi take him to exercise together. If it's really cold outside and it's inconvenient to go out, then boxing indoors. If that doesn't work, you can also chop wood to exercise your arm strength. I guess our family There is quite a lot of firewood now, and I probably haven’t chopped it yet.”
Wang Can pictured Xie Yanzhi chopping firewood in his mind, and couldn't help but chuckle: "Sister Yuan, Xie Xiucai's hand is for holding a pen."
"I know, so I thought about it. I can't just ask him to exercise when the time comes. Let's all work together. As long as you are in good health, you won't be too passive no matter who you meet in the future."
"That's right! Anyway, nothing will happen in the next month or two. Otherwise, we won't set up stalls after the 15th day of the twelfth lunar month, and wait until spring starts?"
Wang Can thought, his eyes flashed, and said: "Sister Yuan, don't worry, if Liu Meihua did what happened to Miss Su's girl, I will find a way to drag you back no matter what.
When your house becomes bigger, let's store more water. Next summer will be really sad. The weather is so hot that it can kill people, and there is a shortage of water everywhere.
Let’s try to save more, and the bigger the house, the better. If the house is not big enough by then, we will capture Liu Dongsheng and beat him up again. "
Speaking of this, she pondered for a while and then said: "Perhaps beating that Cuiliu can also level up? These two people have been hooking up a lot, and God will definitely not like it."
"Well, we'll talk about this later! Let's do this first. I have to take Caiwei and Qingsha back. By now, Miss Su and her girl are about to go out. Go talk to them, and then go to the water. Cloud Village.
By the way, before you go, ask Jiaojiao to come over and guard here. If Su Mingshan asks people to bring rice and noodles back, ask Jiaojiao to ask people to gather in aunt's room first. "
"OK!"
The two of them discussed this and when they came out, they happened to see Su Jin bringing a basin of hot water from the kitchen.
Wang Can waved to Li Yuan and walked towards Su Jin.
Caiwei felt that both her mother and Aunt Can were a little strange today.
However, she was in a good mood and didn't think too much about it. She just thought that her mother was going to marry Uncle Xie, so that's why she was like this.
Seeing her mother and Aunt Can come out of the room, she stood up and looked at her eagerly.
Li Yuan waved to her and Xiao Qingsha: "Caiwei Qingsha, come here, mother will take you back to Lijia'ao!"
When the two children heard that they were going back, they immediately smiled: "Mom, now?"
"Um!"
"Great, I haven't seen Sister Miaomiao for a long time. By the way, mother, can I buy cloud cakes to go back to? I have money. Uncle Xie rewarded me for memorizing the book well. I think Buy some cloud cakes and give them to sister Miaomiao and brother Qing Weiwei."
Xiao Qingsha also said: "There is still me, sister still has me, and Shasha also has money."
When Li Yuan heard what the two children said, she held one hand by the other and walked out the door.
"Okay, Mom will take you to buy pastries first, and then hire a car to go back. Oh, by the way, say goodbye to your Aunt Can first!"
When the two little girls heard this, they turned around and looked at Wang Can, who was standing under the eaves talking to Su Jin.
"Auntie, goodbye, let's go home first!"
When Wang Can heard this, he waved to them with a smile on his face.
"Goodbye Caiwei Shasha, wait until my aunt goes back to prepare delicious food for you. These two days, remember to listen to your uncle."
Su Mingshan, who had just finished combing her hair and walked out, suddenly felt a suffocation in her chest when she heard these words.
Immediately, she rolled her eyes regardless of her image, and muttered angrily: "You're not even married yet, and you call yourself aunt. You're so shameless!"
