Liu Fu was also angry, and quickly came to the front, gave Cui two hard slaps, and cursed angrily: "You crazy woman, do you still want to live? I will send you there now. See the King of Hell.”
This beating woke up Ms. Cui. She stopped her hand and let go of Widow Qiang, who was beaten almost to death. She stared at Liu Fu with a fierce look in her eyes, as if she wanted to eat him alive. Average.
When Liu Fu saw her like this, he was frightened and his aura weakened by three points, and said: "If you don't get up yet, what are you talking about if someone sees you?"
Mrs. Cui looked at Liu Fu. She got up, staggered to her feet, and even became unsteady and almost fell down.
Liu Fu breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that this farce was finally over. What would happen if others saw it?
Suddenly, Mrs. Cui rushed towards him, threw him to the ground, sat on him, grabbed him and beat and scratched him, her nails were deeply embedded into Liu Fu's flesh, and she kept firing her bows from left to right. He slapped her with all his strength.
"You heartless thing, I have been married to you for thirty years. I have worked hard with you for all these years, raised children for you, thought about everything for you, and cared for you in everything. Now my son is seriously ill. , life or death is uncertain, but you have a beautiful woman in your arms and are at ease, where is your conscience?"
Cui's eyes were filled with tears, and she beat and scolded Liu Fu, much more harshly than when she dealt with Widow Rose before, using up ten percent of her strength. If there were times when the two of them had fights and quarrels at home before, Ms. Cui was more tolerant to Liu Fu based on the principle that husband should guide his wife, but now she completely ignores it.
Such a desperate style of play.
My son is gone! If a man is unreliable, what else does she have to live for?
The collapse of the elderly is at this moment.
It would be better if we go to hell together.
Liu Fu fell to the ground and felt a chill in the back of his head. He was in great pain and his vision was blurred. He was half a beat too slow to react to Cui's beating, and he couldn't get up or resist.
He never thought that he would be treated like this by Cui.
"Crazy, crazy."
Widow Qiangwei was freed, gasping and struggled to get up from the ground, gathered up her tattered clothes, and did not dare to care about the crazy Cui, and ran away crying, looking like she had been ravaged by inhuman things. .
He was in a sorry state, his eyes were full of sadness, and he had nowhere to say anything desolate.
Xiao Ming's side.
Ming Sheng drove the carriage directly back to Xiao's house. It was already dark when they arrived at the house, and dinner was waiting for them at home.
At the dinner table, a family of three, Xiao Ming, Xiao Han, and Xiao Yu, were talking and laughing as they ate the meal, showing warmth and harmony.
"Sister, why did you go to Liu's house for so long today, but what happened?" Xiao Han asked after swallowing the food in his mouth. Logically speaking, he would go to Liu's house for a follow-up consultation in the morning and should be back before noon, but it was dark today. Just returned.
This surprised Xiao Han. After all, the Liu family was an unusual home for patients, and he had to treat it with caution.
"I went to see another patient again, out of the city, a little far away." Xiao Ming replied lightly. Liu Zhong's matter was a top secret. She would not tell it openly like this. After all, there was no one in the world. Airtight walls are not.
Xiao Han glanced at his sister and felt suspicious, but since Xiao Yu was here, he couldn't express it clearly.
Xiao Ming sighed in her heart. She couldn't hide anything from this younger brother. Now that he was getting older, it was getting harder and harder to mess with him.
Not good at all.
Xiao Ming changed the subject and asked about Xiao Yu's schoolwork.
"Master praised me again today. I won first place in the Nongsang Fu written by me. He also said that he would let me have a try in the water during the Tongsheng Examination this year." Xiao Yu happily talked about what he had done in school. Teachers often praise students, but everyone only refers to other people's children.
His calligraphy, articles, and even his in-depth understanding of each article were praised by his fellow teachers in the school. These are inseparable from his long-term, day-in, day-out efforts.
Xiao Ming nodded and praised: "God fails those who work hard, keep it up. As for the Tongsheng test, you can write to ask Mr. Wu for his opinion."
"Well, I'm going to write a letter to Mr. Wu after dinner. I don't know when he will come to Beijing. I haven't seen him for a long time. I miss him." Xiao Yu said and took another mouthful of white rice.
Xiao Han and Xiao Ming looked at each other strangely. Looking at Xiao Yu who was in an excited and complacent state, they thought at the same time that if Mr. Wu comes, you may not be happy anymore.
Thinking of the Tongsheng Examination, Xiao Ming asked about Xiao Han's imperial examination. Four years ago, he was already a Tongsheng. He just traveled abroad for four years and missed last year's Xiucai Examination. The Xiucai Examination is held every three years. If he wants to The exam will have to wait until the year after next: "What are your plans for the imperial examination? Are you preparing for the exam the year after next?"
Xiao Han is only sixteen years old this year, and even the year after tomorrow he will only be eighteen, so he is not very old.
The scientific examination of Dayue Dynasty is divided into six levels: the first level examination is the county examination, that is, the Tongsheng examination.
After being born as a child, the second-level exam can be taken three years later: Fu Shi, that is, a scholar. Three years after being a scholar, the third level exam is taken: the Yuan Exam, that is, the Juren Examination. If you pass it, you will be a Juren, commonly known as the Juren Master.
Three years later, in June, the fourth-level examination will be held: the rural examination. If you pass the test, you will become a tribute.
After becoming a Gongshi, there is no need to wait for another three years. The fifth level examination will be held in March of the next year: the joint examination, which is the Jinshi and the younger brother. Also called Chunwei.
October is the imperial examination. The emperor will take the examination in person, and the imperial court will admit the best people among them, and they will be divided into the top three.
First place, number one, second place, third overall.
The title of Erjia is given to those who were born as Jinshi, and the title of Sanjia is given to those who were born as Jinshi. In addition to the fixed three people in the first class, the number of the second class and the third class is variable.
In Xiao Ming's view, the path to science is very much like the education of the future. Preschool (county examination - children's students), elementary school (fu style - scholar), junior high school (college examination - Juren), high school (rural examination - Gongshi), university (conventional examination - Jinshi), postgraduate entrance examination (palace examination - the top scholar and the second best) are just This road is more difficult and cruel than that of later generations, and there is no shortcut.
This happens to be the road for children from a poor family to leap over the Dragon Gate. In the sixth-level exam, the number of people decreases layer by layer, and the difficulty increases layer by layer. The higher you go, the more difficult it becomes. It means thousands of troops crossing a single-plank bridge. Children from a poor family want to change their destiny, and they can only work hard to Go forward, climb up, and climb onto the golden letter of power.
This is easier said than done.
First of all, money alone wiped out seventy-eight percent of them.
And some, at the age of seventy or eighty, have spent three generations of family wealth and still can't pass the exam.
However, since the enlightened Emperor Shengzu came to the throne, he has changed the imperial examination plan and the time of the imperial examination. As long as outstanding students from all over the country have passed the scholar level, the imperial court will be exempted from taxes and Yao labor and will be given a monthly endowment of rice. Hundreds of silver coins, and regular supplies of paper, ink, pens, and inkstones.
