Most of the time, exams don’t make people nervous. What really makes people anxious is the process of waiting for results.
Of course, Mrs. Zheng may not think much of this process, but it has caused misfortune to Mr. Sheng and Sheng An!
The number of times they have been running around with their heads in hands and being punished obediently has been increasing at the same speed as sharp arrows.
That is Sheng Yuan, who managed to escape from the group that was criticized by being thick-skinned and being cute and coquettish with adults.
When the results arrived at the residence, Mrs. Zheng saw the word "Zheng Ling" written in the third position on the ranking list. Her depression immediately disappeared, and for a while, Yongfan Garden was filled with joy.
"What's the use of this?" Sheng Han saw the maid coming out of Yongfan Court with a smile on her face. She couldn't help but ask someone for the reason. After a moment of silence, she curled her lips and said, "Even if I get the first place in the exam, it's still the same." No official duties!"
She couldn't remember whether this happened in her previous life, but according to her memory, no matter how hard Sanfang tried, she would still have to face what she had to face soon, which showed that it was impossible to always be satisfied.
Sheng Ting held Sheng Yun in her arms and listened to what she said. She immediately looked at the scenery and didn't hear it. However, Sheng Yun whispered to her to speak less.
At this moment, there was movement at the gate of the mansion.
Not long after, a young eunuch came in with several internal guards.
Then, the crown prince Sheng Xiangya came in a hurry to greet him.
Because Duke Sheng Guo went out to visit friends in the morning, he was the only one who could make the decision in the mansion.
The eunuch who came this time was named Yang Rang, and he was the godson of the eunuch Yang Xun. Although he also accompanied the imperial palace, he mainly worked as an errand boy for the prince Jiang Huaiqian.
He has a kind appearance and a gentle attitude. He said that this trip was to pass on the prince's order and take up the post with the mother-in-law of Zheng family in Shengmen.
As soon as these words came out, not to mention the three Sheng Han people who joined in the fun, even the eldest son Sheng Xiangya was startled.
Fortunately, he reacted quickly, and with a smile in his eyes, he asked his mother-in-law to go to Yongfan Garden to summon someone.
Yang Rang didn't give in and just said he could go to Yongfan Garden to announce the decree.
Having said this, Sheng Xiangya didn't say much and continued to lead the way with a smile.
Seeing the opportunity, Sheng Han wanted to follow, but Sheng Ting grabbed her and said, "Sixth sister, third sister is still here, we should go back."
Her words made Sheng Yun react from the shock.
No matter how hard her sister struggled, she raised her hand to pull her sister's ear and walked back without saying a word.
She remained silent and didn't respond, which actually calmed the noisy Sheng Han.
Seeing this, Sheng Ting breathed a sigh of relief and wanted to follow up, but after taking a few steps, she couldn't help but look back in the direction of Yongfan Garden.
…
"Mother, you are now the instructor of the sixth grade!" After sending Yang Rang away, Shengyuan jumped to see the decree in her mother's hand, and clapped her hands to cheer, "Daddy is only a sixth grade now. Where is the lecturer!"
Sheng Xiangxun, who followed his elder brother back from seeing off guests: "..."
He was so grateful to this little girl!
If she hadn't reminded him, he would have forgotten that he was also in the sixth grade!
Sheng Xiangya looked at the liveliest little niece in the house and couldn't help but think of his married daughter: "Third brother, I'll ask Sister Zhi to come over tomorrow to learn from her younger siblings. Don't let her go."
Sheng Xiangxun thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, if Sister Zhi is willing to learn, just come over when we are all at home."
There was only one real niece in the whole house, so he would not ignore her.
Of course, regardless of whether you are in charge, you still need to make it clear: "It's just that my wife herself probably doesn't know how she passed the exam. What she can teach Sister Zhi is nothing more than what she has learned. If there is any bias, don't blame me, brother." ah!"
Sheng Xiangya patted him on the shoulder: "No matter what, big brother appreciates it! The reason why I let her come to your yard is just to let her learn from her younger siblings. I don't ask her to get an official position in the future, as long as she I feel relieved that I can live a happy life. If I have a daughter in the future, I can just raise the child."
"Huh? Brother, if you have this idea, then you should ask your niece and son-in-law to come and learn from me! To be honest, without me as a virtuous wife... ahem, without the support of my husband, my wife will also take the exam
Don't come out! "
Sheng Xiangxun was a little embarrassed when he almost said the bed joke. Of course, his embarrassment only lasted for a moment, and he soon acted as if nothing was wrong. His face was not red and his heart was not confused, and he continued talking calmly.
Seeing his expression as usual, Sheng Xiangya felt that he was the only one who might be embarrassed.
After his brother said this, Sheng Xiangya was too embarrassed to enter the yard. He silently patted his brother on the shoulder twice and left with a sigh.
Sheng Xiangxun shrugged and didn't think much about it. When his elder brother walked away, he rubbed his hands to settle the score with his little girl!
What do you mean he is the sixth grade!
There are many talents in the Hanlin Academy who want to take root in the Hanlin Academy, but they cannot do it. There are many people who have been thrown out of Beijing by the officials. It is already a skill for him to be able to stick to the Hanlin Academy!
Mr. Sheng, who was good at not looking up or down, felt that he was doing well the more he thought about it, and he immediately went to talk to his little girl confidently.
"Is there a position of tutor in the Imperial College? I remember Sister An, you said that there is only one position for the sixth grade in the Imperial College, and it is the secretary responsible for tutoring students." Mrs. Zheng looked at the decree word by word, curiously talking to her two girls Discuss.
As soon as Mr. Sheng entered the house, he saw a different smile on his wife's face than usual, and his heart moved slightly.
At this moment, my wife's eyes were shining, looking confident and assertive.
He had never seen her so dazzling.
Immediately, the eldest daughter and the younger daughter were all forgotten. In his eyes, he only cared about his wife.
Therefore, the task of educating his wife about the situation in the Imperial College fell on his shoulders.
It wasn't until he explained to his wife the five halls and six halls of the Imperial College, as well as the official positions of the Imperial College, that he talked about tutoring:
"There are very few female teachers in the Imperial College for Girls. Your Majesty and the Crown Prince intend to recruit female teachers through recommendation to teach the girls, and also to encourage the girls to be confident and let them compete with the men.
It is a pity that there are not many self-recommendations, but there are too few who can take on the important task of teaching the first wave of women's imperial examination students.
Most of the female teachers have no ideas of their own and teach students according to the books. Some even include the "Four Books on Women" in their classes.
The prince found out and asked people to blame him, but they said that they were not capable enough and could only follow the script.
Such people will naturally be driven away.
But they were not sad even if they were driven home, and seemed to be relieved.
On the contrary, it made His Majesty and the Prince very angry. They had previously thought of taking this opportunity to popularize female teachers so that the husband could get used to being taught by girls.
Seeing that the plan was difficult to implement, after long consideration, His Majesty and the Crown Prince thought of creating a special position in the Imperial College, that is, a tutor.
The person who serves as a tutor is not under the jurisdiction of superior officials such as Jijiu, but directly corresponds to the prince. In this way, no matter how he cultivates books, the teaching position in the Imperial College will not be good, and he cannot talk too much. "
After hearing what he said, Zheng's last worry disappeared, and what remained was only dissatisfaction.
After Mr. Sheng coaxed his wife, he turned around and saw the little girl looking back and forth holding the decree. He immediately remembered what he had forgotten just now.
Adhering to the principle of not wasting any idea, he called Sheng Yuan repeatedly.
Sheng Yuan heard her father calling her full name: "???!!!"
Children in previous lives all know that when their parents call out their full names, it is the beginning of their punishment.
How could a smart little girl like her wait while her father was proofreading?
Let's see if she escapes for a while!
"Miss, Aunt Qi is here to take you into the palace!"
