In the past few days, Shen Jing went to the temple to burn incense every day, prayed for Yu Tiance to pass the county examination, and also prayed for his father's good health and not to endlessly plot against her husband.
On the contrary, Yu Tiance acted as if nothing was wrong and stopped endorsing it. He began to study fried tea and drink white wine at home to purify it.
There are also some effects.
After several distillations, the daughter's red I bought now is no different from the white wine of later generations.
And the tea leaves are even more fragrant when fried!
In a blink of an eye, the day for the announcement of the results has arrived.
The first night, Shen Jing forced Yu Tiance into the big temple in the city.
Originally, Yu Tiance was a staunch atheist, but after something like this happened to him, he began to believe in it and knelt devoutly in front of the Buddha's golden body.
He was confident that he could pass. However, he was inevitably nervous at this time. He couldn't sleep all night and had thick dark circles on his face.
Before dawn, the bulletin board in front of the Gongyuan gate was crowded with people.
Shen Jing grabbed Yu Tiance's arm and looked ahead while jumping.
"These people are real, just leave after watching this!"
Yu Tiance rubbed Shen Jing's head and said with a smile, "Why are you so anxious? It's not easy to get in?"
Shen Jing rolled her eyes and said, "You're still bragging to me. How can you get in with so many people?"
Haha~
"Look how I get in."
Yu Tiance took a deep breath, pulled his neck and shouted: "Stop squeezing, whose little lady's clothes are all squeezed off! Look, look, whose are those five silver ingots?"
Shen Jing didn't expect that he would dare to shout, and she instantly covered her face with her hands.
When it comes to the lady's clothes falling off, the scholars have already turned around.
But the most important thing is the sentence about whose five silver ingots it is.
That’s five thousand yuan!
It is enough for ordinary people to live on for several years.
You know, copper coins were quite valuable in the Yu Dynasty. For one penny, you could buy a meat bun or an egg.
Six cents can buy a bucket of rice!
Scholars, young and old, swarmed towards where Yu Tiance pointed.
In front of the gate of Gongyuan, there was a moment of chaos.
Fortunately, there were government officials in front of the Gongyuan gate to maintain order, and they forcibly separated the crowded crowd, so no stampede occurred.
Taking advantage of the chaos, Yu Tiance walked quietly to the front row of the announcement office.
There were five pieces of paper posted on the list.
At a cursory glance, there are about three or four hundred names.
After searching for a long time, Shen Jing shouted with a loud voice: "Lang Jun, you passed, you passed! Twenty-eighth! The results are not bad!"
oh?
Yu Tiance glanced around and saw that the twenty-eighth name on the white paper was indeed his!
Hahaha!
"I've been waiting for it day and night, but it's finally over!"
However, I was just happy, not ecstatic.
Because the twenty-seventh one was none other than Jiang Nan, who was still ahead of him.
"Langjun, Langjun is awesome!" Shen Jing happily hugged Yu Tiance's neck and jumped up and down.
Naturally, she wanted to rush back to the Shen family as soon as possible to share this kind of thing with her father and sisters. From now on, she would never talk about his Lang Junbiao!
Especially, he wanted his eight brothers-in-law to hear it!
The curses that Shen Kang had prepared were suppressed.
In front of his little daughter and for the sake of Cha Ye, Shen Kang could only simply praise Yu Tiance.
Banquets are an essential part of the Shen family.
But this time, Yu Tiance didn't eat and drink for free. Instead, he booked a big table at the eldest brother-in-law's inn, and all the good wine and food were served.
At the wine table, Shen Kang drank unhappily.
Just because when he saw Yu Tiance, his hands itched and he wanted to slap him.
The grievances and grievances of these days cannot be listed one by one.
Knowing that the wine was laced with croton powder, he threw it away if he didn't want to drink it. He also took advantage of everyone's drunkenness to change the wine. In the end, everyone was poisoned.
Most importantly, it embarrassed him in public!
Playing mahjong, deliberately blocking his black guns, almost made him angry to death.
Knowing that the hall was covered with hazelnuts, he deliberately threw them in, almost breaking the tendons in his legs. He had just recovered in the past two days.
The most irritating thing is that every time he succeeds, Yu Tiance never pretends not to know, but tells the thief frankly. This is very unbearable!
Son-in-law, it’s not over, nothing is over!
Shen Kang picked up the wine glass, rolled his eyes at Yu Tiance, and suppressed the anger in his heart and forced out a smile: "Come on, come on, Biaozi took the exam three times. It is not easy to pass the county exam! It's good that the difficulty of the county exam has been reduced. , even if the fool has awakened, we should all be happy for you!"
yes!
As soon as these words came out, the eight brothers-in-law echoed at the same time.
"I didn't expect that Biaozi could pass the county examination. I am also a businessman, otherwise, I would have to try this imperial examination."
"Haha, second brother-in-law, you may not be able to win the Jinshi. I don't think it will be difficult."
"Even Biaozi can pass the exam. How easy are those questions!"
…
The eight brothers-in-law are all good climbers.
The conditions at home are good, and I have nothing to do all day long, thinking about how to flatter my father-in-law.
As long as the father-in-law starts, everything can go smoothly.
In these words, no one said that Yu Tiance was great, and no one mentioned the original owner's efforts. On the contrary, the irony was very strong.
At this time, the seventh brother-in-law Zheng Ci brought up wine.
Zheng Ci is the most famous among the eight brothers-in-law. He passed the imperial examination at the age of twenty-five, which is considered a promising young man.
Usually, he always looks at Yu Tiance through his nostrils.
Although Zheng Ci did not hold any official position, he still received a salary every year and opened a private school in the city. When people saw him, they all called him master.
A while ago, the old county magistrate was transferred away, and he gave him a lot of money to look for his replacement.
However, it backfired.
The old county magistrate took his money and ran away, but the matter was not handled by him, so the Ministry of Official Affairs sent another magistrate.
If he passes the examination in two years and becomes a tribute scholar, the Ministry of Civil Affairs will assign him an official position, so he does not have to wait for a position.
Zheng Ci said in an imposing manner: "Biaozi, Tongsheng has nothing to be proud of. You can beat eight of them to death with one brick! If you want to take the exam, take the exam or above. You don't have to serve in the military or do corvee. You can get money just by lying at home." There is still a chance to become an official. But you need to work harder..."
This tone makes me feel really uncomfortable.
When he talks about working harder, he suddenly stops talking, as if he is holding a stool in the middle of a bowel movement and has the feeling of being choked off, which makes people a little crazy.
"Seventh brother-in-law, what do you think I should work hard on?"
Zheng Ci shook his wine glass and glanced out of the corner of his eye: "The six arts of a gentleman are etiquette, music, archery, charioteering, calligraphy, and mathematics. In my opinion, you have to learn all six arts. Try to be like your brother-in-law. Although it is a bit difficult, you can do it if you work hard. Do it.”
This is forcing you to pretend.
If it were anyone else, he might just smile and be done with it.
Yu Tiance's emotional intelligence is not low, and he also knows that there is no point in arguing with others.
But the premise is that people with good relationships cannot be stubborn.
From the father-in-law to the brother-in-law, if he can pick someone who is really good for him, he will lose!
Yu Tiance can't be used to food, and his good mood can't be disturbed by one person's pretense!
Go to class, you must go to class!
"Brother-in-law, with all due respect, there is no comparison between you and me when it comes to the Six Arts of a Gentleman. Let's talk about something else."
