The college entrance examination is not over yet, but many candidates are indeed walking out of the examination hall one after another. Some of them are happy, some are dejected, and among them is the exhausted Xu Fan.
He once took part in the general examination, and he was very high-spirited that time. Why? Because he ranked ninth in the provincial examination at that time, he participated in the student banquet, and at that time he was also named one of the ten outstanding figures in the capital. This honor was so dazzling. I thought he could get a better ranking in the examination, but he The results of it? Reality gave him a hard blow and disillusioned him.
The provincial examination and the provincial examination are completely different concepts. There is no direct correlation between the provincial examination results and the provincial examination.
From then on, he studied hard, but before he could prepare, the Duke's Mansion ushered in a huge change, which made him feel at a loss. He hopes that the final exam will come soon, but he is afraid that he will fail again. Because his family has fallen into decline, he is no longer the second son of the Duke's family. If he cannot change, the Xu family will disappear completely.
As the days gradually fade away, there is less time for advancement and study. Every day, not only do I have to help my father, but I even have to treat my mother. But at this time when things were changing and people were changing, his little brother suddenly appeared to accompany him, which made the burden on his shoulders a lot easier...
Can you pass this time?
My dear ancestors of the Xu family, you must bless me and my little brother to go to high school this time!
The Xu family needs them, and the Xu family needs to regain its former glory...
Xu Fan searched the crowd. He was looking for his little brother, but there was still no naughty figure. Could it be that he hadn't come out yet?
Just when he wanted to wait, the words of the two students next to him made him break out in a cold sweat.
"Have you heard that the first person to hand in the paper is that Great Yan Xu Que?"
"I knew it when I came out. I heard that guy came out an hour after the exam started."
"Haha, we don't have to worry about Xu Que going to high school this time!"
…
As these people laughed wantonly, Xu Fan quickened his pace. He had just prayed to his ancestors, but his younger brother stabbed him in the back. Wasn't this a slap in the face?
Just as his pace quickened, he seemed to see something out of the corner of his eye.
Xu Fan stopped and immediately looked at the figure under the big tree. Who else could it be if it wasn't Xu Que?
"Little brother!" Xu Fan took a few steps over and grabbed Xu Que's hand: "Tell me honestly, did you hand in a blank paper?"
"Hand in blank?" Xu Que was confused, and then he laughed: "Brother, are you kidding me? Do you believe those students' rumors?"
Xu Fan was stunned, but he still looked at Xu Que carefully, and he breathed a sigh of relief after discovering that his brother's temperament was more calm and vast than his own.
"How did you do in the exam?" Xu Que asked with a smile.
"I... I think it's still a bit mysterious... There's nothing wrong with the policy, but I'm not very satisfied with the poems. Although I tried some of your methods, I can't see anything wrong, so I have no choice but to After handing it in, the result is still unknown..."
To be honest, it was only at this moment that Xu Fan truly realized how important his temporary advice was. If it hadn't been for his targeted revisions and guidance two days before the college entrance examination, he probably wouldn't have been able to write even a single sentence of this poem. …
But even so, he still felt that he lacked experience, so he pondered over it for a long time before handing in the lyrics.
Seeing his elder brother sighing with emotion, Xu Que patted his shoulder and comforted him: "Don't worry, as long as you answer the question, there will be hope."
Xu Fan nodded, and just as he was about to leave with his younger brother, several Beimang students came next to him: "Hey, this isn't Xu Que, what about Madman Xu? Did you get a blank in the college entrance examination?"
Seeing the proud expressions of these Beimang students, Xu Que felt happy in his heart. He was worrying about how to find out information about a person, but he didn't expect these "melons" to come to his door...
"May I ask which road you are on?" Xu Que smiled and handed over.
"Zhang Shaoqing, a student from Beimang, specializes in the art of arithmetic."
"He Jinsheng, a student from Beimang, specializes in poetry."
"Yang Zheng, a student from Beimang, specializes in miscellaneous studies."
After hearing the self-introductions of these three people, Xu Que asked with a smile: "Are these three people here to compete with me?"
Hearing Xu Que mention the competition again, He Jinsheng immediately took the lead and said: "Xu Que, don't do this, we are not competing with you, we just want to watch your joke!"
Xu Que pretended to be surprised and smiled: "Oh, you are too blatant. You actually told my joke. Aren't you afraid of being slapped in the face?"
"Slap in the face? What do you mean?" Zhang Shaoqing asked doubtfully.
Before Xu Que could explain, Yang Zheng next to him guessed what Xu Que meant by "slapping in the face" and quickly explained it quietly in Zhang Shaoqing's ear.
After listening to his companion's explanation, Zhang Shaoqing looked disdainful: "Don't worry, for a student like you who handed in a blank paper, we don't think highly of you at all. In the future, you will be completely different from us!"
"Really? How about making a bet?" Xu Que looked at the three of them with a smile.
"What are you betting on?" He Jinsheng asked.
"Of course it's gambling!" Xu Que said with a smile: "The loser has to give one thousand taels to the other party, and also has to take off his clothes and run three times around Nanfeng City, shouting "Beimang" while running. Students are all fools, what do you think?"
The three of them were stunned after hearing this. After looking at each other, Yang Zheng took the lead and asked: "What is the bet? What kind of bet is it?"
"It's very simple. Just bet on whether I can be on the list!" Xu Que pointed at the sky with a smile: "Didn't you say that I turned in a blank? If I am on the list, you will lose. On the contrary, if I am not on the list, you will lose." What if we win?”
After hearing Xu Que's words, the three of them looked at each other again, and then started discussing with each other.
"We have a great chance of winning, and I heard that this guy ran out within an hour, so he will definitely get nothing!" He Jinsheng said.
"Well, I think so too." Zhang Shaoqing agreed.
"But if we lose, we can't afford so much money!" Yang Zheng became embarrassed.
When the three of them said they had no money, Xu Que immediately interrupted the discussion: "No money, it doesn't matter. Just agree to two conditions."
"What are the conditions?" Yang Zheng said, "But I agreed in advance, as long as we are not allowed to change our country and violate the holy will."
Xu Que smiled and waved his hands quickly: "Don't worry, we Dayan don't want fools, just help me find two people!"
Find someone?
The three of them were confused, but then agreed.
"It's no problem to find someone, but if you lose, you have to pay three thousand taels. Do you have that much money?" Zhang Shaoqing asked.
And just when Zhang Shaoqing finished speaking, Xu Que took out a stack of votes...
Seeing so many banknotes, the three people's eyes were full of greed, because they had never seen so many banknotes.
"How about it?" Xu Que said: "If there is no problem, let's establish the evidence now!"
"Okay!" The three of them agreed in unison.
Xu Fan stood speechless. He felt that his younger brother was too arrogant. However, he still had great confidence in his younger brother. After all, it was his younger brother who pioneered the way of poetry, and the way of poetry...he had never seen anyone. Someone who is more powerful than my little brother.
As Xu Que and the four of them dropped the words behind the gold paper, the four of them suddenly had some kind of connection. As long as someone violated this agreement, the winning party could punish the other party immediately.
"Tomorrow is the day to watch the rankings. Let's meet at the door of the club then!" Yang Zheng said.
"Okay, then it's a deal!" Xu Que smiled, very happily, which made the three of them feel a little uncomfortable.
Seeing the three people leaving first, Xu Que patted his eldest brother on the shoulder: "Let's go back too!"
Xu Fan nodded, and the two brothers walked side by side towards the guild hall.
As for the glares and suspicions they encountered on the road, the two brothers didn't take it seriously at all. After all, Xu Fan still believed in his younger brother.
And just when Xu Que and Xu Fan were about to enter the clubhouse, Lu Zijian hurried over...
