Ning Ning will remember the scene on the exam day.
Here's the thing.
One day in advance, Xu Yanming specially changed into a purple-sleeved avenue robe, a purple gold crown on his head, brocade shoes on his feet, and an ancient peach wood sword in his hand.
Ning Ning woke up very early and was awakened by the sound of bells outside. She looked down from the balcony and saw her brother dancing to the master below, ah no, how to do it.
"Brother, what are you doing?"
Ning Ning shouted loudly below.
Xu Yanming, who was doing this, turned a deaf ear and was completely unmoved. He waited for a set of Tiangang Steps to be completed with a cold and extraordinary appearance. He sheathed his sword and carried it behind his back neatly. Then he raised his head and saw a long purple ribbon hanging from the edge of his bun. He placed it gently on his shoulders. He was truly a gentleman like jade, and he was unparalleled in the world.
"I'm going to give you a recipe."
The young man shouted back.
Ning Ning asked, "Why?"
The young man said: "Grandpa, they asked me to give you a blessing. I wish you good results in the exam today."
Ning Ning gave a thumbs up: "Well done, I hugged the Taoist Master during the exam."
She said it was just a last resort, but she didn't expect that she was hugging Dao Master's thigh temporarily.
Before leaving in the morning, my grandfather, father and brothers sent their blessings.
"Come on, you are the best today."
"Come on, baby."
"It's so cute."
Ning Ning was not stupid to begin with. After transferring to the Imperial School, with the help of Chu Yi, she managed to catch up with her studies, but then she was delayed. After this time, catching up again was not a problem.
Imperial School.
A temporary monthly exam was added today.
The invigilator was very surprised because according to the monthly exam time, the exam would not be held until the end of the month.
He prepared the test papers and came to the classroom.
"Students, this is the first Chinese language test. Please distribute the test papers and answer the questions. No cheating, otherwise the results will be invalid."
"OK."
The students below answered in unison.
Next, the test papers are distributed.
The exam time passed little by little.
There are four exams in the morning, two in the afternoon, and six exams in the monthly exam.
Teachers will leave an hour at the end to mark the test papers, and the results will be released on the same day.
As expected, Ning Ning's grades were tutored by many tutors, and she successfully ranked among the top ten in her class and among the top thirty in her grade.
Holding a piece of red test paper, the little girl breathed a sigh of relief.
The gate of Imperial School was crowded with drivers and parents who came to pick up their children.
The powerful people will choose to send their children to this school. In addition to getting a better education, the children can also develop relationships in the school.
The friendship between classmates is always more sincere than it will be in the future.
Some parents may just go home for the Chinese New Year and go about their daily routine, but when it’s their turn to pick up their children from the aristocratic school in the imperial capital, they have to get up from their lover’s bed, drive their big ostentatious G, put on a hypocritical smile, and look at The school gate was full of people welcoming the rich and powerful, gently asking and exhorting the children if they had made good friends, and to make more friends.
One of the men was a newly minted dignitary in the imperial capital. He was dressed in expensive clothes and looked like a nouveau riche. However, any discerning person passing by would notice that most of the clothes on this man came from a clothing store.
He looked down at the Rolex watch on his wrist, his expression a little impatient, but when a parent recognized him and said hello, his face suddenly turned slightly flattering and kind.
"Yes, our children are also studying there. Hey, your children are in class one?"
Among several parents, there was one parent from the first class who made everyone admire him with admiration.
The current class is no longer the former class.
The previous Class 1 could be said to be the most powerful place, but the current Class 1 cannot squeeze in just by being powerful.
"Class 1" has been fixed as Class 1.
Some children in Class 1 study abroad or go elsewhere with their parents. They are allowed to leave, but it is impossible to come back to Class 1 again or add new members.
Joining the "Class One" circle of children's parents is the dream of every upper-class person in the imperial capital.
Parents whose children become students in the first class are proud of this status and are determined not to leave, even if they give up some further opportunities.
Because, in the circles of the imperial capital, there is such a saying secretly circulating.
"Class 1" represents identity. There is a special, unspeakable department that will protect the safety of all immediate family members of "Class 1" students. They enjoy the best security, medical care and preferential treatment, as long as they do not commit adultery or break the law. Discipline.
And this protection will last until that special young lady leaves the imperial aristocratic school or graduates.
The man was secretly extremely envious, thinking to himself, are the status of a group of parents so great?
But looking at the glorious scene of a group of people he had never seen before, surrounding the group of parents, an unspeakable sourness rushed to his forehead.
"I heard that the school's monthly exam is taking place today."
"Didn't you say that you just passed the exam last week? According to the cycle, it will be until the end of the month."
"I'm not sure. I heard it's just a temporary test to check the students' background."
Parents will occasionally chat while picking up students, but they can't talk about finance, political affairs, or shady things here. This is under the sun, in front of the school, and whether they like it or not, they are sitting inside. Whether the child is their favorite child, they have to act like a kind parent, chat a few words about the child's daily life, and prepare wedding clothes for themselves.
Of course, everyone showed the reserve unique to the upper class.
At this time, it was almost time for the children to finish school.
While everyone was waiting in an orderly manner, a melodious bamboo flute sound floated over, just like a crane spreading its wings, showing off its beautiful feathers to everyone, then raising its neck and making a clear sound that echoed through the sky, and rushed straight through the clouds into the sky proudly.
"Hey, you play the flute really well."
Everyone here has not gone to a few concerts. Whether it is arty or you really like it, you have a basic level of appreciation.
The sound of the flute fell slightly, and everyone had not yet recovered from its charm.
A sharp, intense suona sound was played impassionedly.
This is a gangster, this is a bastard, this is a bandit who breaks into their hearts at all costs.
"I, I can't stand it anymore..."
A self-proclaimed romantic man covered his chest and gasped sadly: "Who ruined the fairy music in front of me? This behavior is hateful, abominable, and strongly condemned... um..."
The slightly widened eyes reflected the panic face of his companion.
It's strange, isn't this person who wants to lose face the most, actually doing such an impulsive and dishonorable thing as covering his mouth in public?
Soon, when the person playing the suona came into his sight, the elegant scholar's face turned pale, and the color faded in an instant.
It was a little old man, playing the suona, with a note tied on his head: "Ningning, baby, come on for the exam."
Followed by a group of big guys.
