The county school examination in the Song Dynasty was like later generations. Many families came to take the exam. The county school gate was closed, but none of them left. They each found a place to rest and wait.

Many teahouses that are good at seizing business opportunities have come to set up open-air tea stalls, and seven or eight tea stalls were quickly set up in the square at the entrance of the county school gate.

Fanning and Zhu Pei also found a seat at a tea stall. They asked for a pot of tea and a few plates of snacks.

Fanning was a little absent-minded. He bowed and stared at the ground, supported his elbows on his knees, and rubbed his palms gently.

The discussions of several parents next to him came into his ears.

"Zhang Yuanwai, you have a wide range of news. How do you think today's exam is compared to the beginning of the year?"

"The difficulty is almost the same. The key is to see who set the questions. I heard from the head of Chen, the Affiliated School of the County School, that this time it is likely that Zhang Ruoying will set the questions, and the topic of the discussion should be from "The Analects of Confucius".

"No! Zhang Ruoying had just asked questions at the beginning of the year, why was he the other one?"

"This supplementary examination is a continuation of the exam at the beginning of the year, so he sets the questions."

A parent said with a sad face: "It's over. I thought it was the master of the Korean Academy of Jiayu Academy to give the question, but he bet the wrong question!"

"If the master of the Korean Academy really sets the question, can you guarantee that you will win the bet?" Several family members next to him laughed.

On the other side, there were also several parents whispering.

"Hey! My Dalang is the weakest in doing the thesis. He studied in Liu Daru's cram school for a year, but his progress was not great, so I was so worried!"

"Liu Daru's cram school is no longer possible, and his reputation is bad. I asked Sanlang to go to Changqing School to follow Shangshen to review with her. I felt that it had made great progress, so I still had to go to a regular school to study."

"Ah Dai!"

Seeing Fan Ning's face full of worries, Zhu Pei comforted him softly and said, "Don't worry too much. No matter whether they can pass the exam, you have already tried your best!"

Fanning nodded and smiled bitterly: "I feel like these parents, more nervous than taking the exam by myself. I hope they can all pass the exam! Otherwise......"

Fan Ning sighed softly. If several people unfortunately failed the exam, he really didn't know how to face them, especially Li Dashou, who kowtowed and called his master!

Zhu Pei suddenly pursed his lips and smiled, "Ah Dai, it's the first time I've seen you lose your soul and lose your mind for so long. It's quite interesting."

Three black lines appeared on Fanning's forehead, and he immediately straightened his waist and looked at both sides, "Hey! Where is Sister Jian? She is not by your side."

"She probably went to deal with someone who was disrespectful to the old man!" Zhu Pei snorted coldly.

She glanced at Fanning again, and a naughty look flashed in her eyes.

"You must be polite to me when you speak in the future, otherwise Sister Jian will hurt you by chance, it will not be my business."

Fan Ning smiled and said, "When will I dare to be rude to you? I really annoyed you. I am afraid that Sister Jian will not need to take action. A sword light flashed on your waist, and Fan Xiaoru's life was gone."

When Zhu Pei heard that he called himself Fan Xiaoru, he couldn't help but cover his mouth and giggle.

After Zhu Pei interrupted, Fan Ning became cheerful and no longer worried about the exams of his junior brothers. He smiled and said, "It's boring to sit, so why not let's find some interesting things to play with!"

"Okay! Let's play the fan card."

She immediately took out a deck of fan signs from the bag happily.

When Fanning played the fan card, it was Zhu Pei who taught him, but his luck was really bad and he lost every time.

Fan Ning originally wanted to visit the strange stone shop in Wuxian, but he didn't expect that Zhu Pei would actually play fan cards.

He felt a little upset and had to say helplessly: "How to play? Snatch the courtesan, fight the official hat or the leaf show?"

Fan Card is the ancestor of today's playing cards and mahjong. There are forty cards, divided into four types: 100,000, 100,000, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100, 100,

But ordinary people prefer to play simpler things, such as fighting the official hat, which is very similar to today's battle for the best. Each person draws ten cards, competes for luck, and compares the size of the game. It depends on whoever finishes playing the cards first, even if he wins, four people can play them. The winner takes all, and if he loses a few cards, he will pay a few cents.

It is easier to grab the courtesan, it is to compare the colors of the suits. If you touch three photos at a time, whoever has the best suits will win.

Because of the simple gameplay and exciting wins, fighting official hats and grabbing the courtesan are popular in the Song Dynasty, suitable for both young and old.

"I want to put a pig's head on it, of course I'm playing with a fight official hat!"

Zhu Pei put the box on the stone table, washed the fan cards, and said with a smile: "I agreed that every five cards I lost were posted with a pig's head, and I will not be allowed to take it before lunch!"

The little lady is very lucky. Fanning has never beaten her in the past two months of playing cards. She often has five or six pig heads on her face.

However, this was Fanning's suggestion. He was short of money and lost to Zhu Pei, so he suggested that he put a pig's head on as a punishment for losing cards.

Fanning rolled up her sleeves and sat forward, "Just play, whoever is afraid of whom, I have to put your face on a pig's head today."

After only a few cards were released, Zhu Pei played the last two cards in his hand, 990,000 guan.

A cunning look flashed in her big black eyes, as if a naughty little Mars was jumping on her own, jumping from one eye to the other.

Zhu Pei said proudly: "Prince Yipin, Ah Dai, I'm sorry, you lost again!"

Fanning still had eight cards in his hand, so he had no chance to play.

It seems that today's luck is still with Zhu Pei. After only five sets, Fanning has lost more than a dozen cards.

At this time, Fan Ning saw a 900,000 guan on the table, and took advantage of her unpreparedness to steal it. He was gathering four 9 cards and ninety-nine thousand guans and ninety-nine thousand guans and ninety-nine thousand guans. This is called dominating the world, which is equivalent to fighting for the four A-bombs in the upper reaches, and is the largest of the cards.

When Zhu Pei played a Jinshi, he was three consecutive cards with the same suits and colors, indicating the top scorer, the second scorer, and the third scorer.

Fan Ning bet on her, "Ha! I won the world!"

Zhu Pei still had four cards in her hand and she stomped her feet in anger, "What's wrong with it? Why did your luck improve?"

She suddenly realized, "No! I just called out the 900,000 yuan."

"You must have remembered it wrong. I won this one, so I will lose four cards first!"

"No! I played 900,000 coins. I remember clearly that you must have stolen the cards."

"No! You definitely didn't steal it. You remembered it wrongly. You touched it the last one."

"You must have stolen!"

Zhu Pei stomped his feet in a delicate voice, and his rosy little mouth was pouting so quickly that it could hang an oil bottle, "Ah Dai, you are actually cheating!"

"Cannot haws! Selling candied haws, fragrant and sweet candied haws!"

A hawker selling candied haws came not far away. Candied haws just appeared in the middle of the Northern Song Dynasty. The syrup wrapped around forest syrup, cherries or kumquats, and were deeply loved by the people of the Song Dynasty.

Zhu Pei's eyes lit up and he immediately jumped up and said, "I'll buy candied haws."

She had just run two steps when she suddenly remembered something, screamed in surprise, and turned around and hurriedly covered her chair.

Fan Ning was stunned for a moment. He could see clearly that there were still a bunch of cards hidden in the chair Zhu Pei was sitting on.

Fan Ning was so angry that she was so angry that she was so lucky today, no wonder she didn't let herself collect cards, it turned out that she was cheating!

In the afternoon, the melodious bell rings in the county school, which is a reminder of the bell, indicating that there is still half an hour before the end of the exam.

But the ringing of the prompt bell also means that students can hand in the paper and leave the venue. The gate of the county school slowly opened, and several students walked out one after another.

The parents stood up one after another and looked nervously at the door. The two first parents of students ran up anxiously and whispered to their children for handing in their papers so early.

At this time, Fan Ning saw a tall and burly student coming out of the county school. He was shocked. Li Dashou was the third one to hand in the paper.

Li Dashou wrote the fastest among the six people, and it was reasonable to finish the test paper first, but now it is still half an hour before the exam is over, Fan Ning is still a little worried.

He hurriedly ran up, "Dajuan, why did you hand in the paper?"

Li Dashou was full of excitement, and went up to one knee, knelt down on one knee, and fisted, saying, "Thank you for your teachings, Dashou is unforgettable!"

Fanning quickly helped him up, "Get up quickly, let others see a joke!"

He suddenly moved his heart and asked in a low voice: "Have you really hit the question?"

Li Dashou nodded in excitement, "I've hit all three questions."

Fan Ning was overjoyed and asked quickly: "What is the discussion topic?"

The title of the poem is Dragon Boat Festival. Fanning is the most confident. He thinks that he can examine the Confucianism in the Book of Rites, but Fanning is most inaccurate about the topic of the argument.

He inferred two articles in "Mencius", one is "What is the great spirit" and the other is "On Mencius's advice to King Qi for his mistakes in the heart."

I don’t know which one I have taken the right account?

Li Dashou couldn't help but smile and said in a low voice: "What I'm trying to do is to "Advice the King of Qi with the Flaws of Distance and Heart."

Fan Ning hit the punch and the palm of his hand, and he felt lucky to win a big prize. Zhang Ruoying made the questions in a regular way, and this rule was captured by himself.

Li Dashou continued: "The poem tests the Dragon Boat Festival". There are two chapters in the title of the silent scriptures, one is the fourth section of Gongsun Chou Chapter and the other is the second section of "The Confucian Xing". All the disciples have done it."

"Is there any check?"

"I checked twice, but I wrote a word incorrectly. I didn't modify a word in the entire paper."

"well!"

Fanning said two good things in a row and smiled and said, "Come and sit for a while. When they come out, I'll take you to dinner."

Fan Ning took Li Dashou to the tea stall to sit down, but he didn't expect that as soon as Li Dashou sat down, the big group of parents surrounded him and asked about the question today.

The parents were talking a lot, and many families said angrily: "The discussion topic was too biased!"

"Actually, the exam is not biased!"

Finally someone said a few fair words, "After all, all elementary schools require memorization. Besides, I also took this article by examining the Mojing. I specially reminded the candidates to show that the county school questions are quite kind."

In fact, Fan Ning also felt that the exam was not difficult. "The Analects of Confucius" and "Mencius" were the most basic things. If you can't even memorize this, how could you take the county school?

The key is whether you do it well. If you write the questions in advance, students can revise them repeatedly, and even get the professor's guidance, the quality of the article will be higher.

Fanning felt that as long as all six of them performed normally, they should be doing well in the exam.

At this time, Zhu Pei pulled Fanning aside and laughed quietly: "If all six of them were admitted to the county school this time, the reputation of Sanyuan cram school will be gained. Ah Dai, I think you can really run a cram school."

Fan Ning didn’t think about the cram school, but what he thought about was not running a county trial cram school, but an imperial examination cram school, and continued to bring his six students to help them pass the test.

Maybe you can run a school and train outstanding disciples.

But now it seems that it is a little early to think about school.

Continuing your three-yuan cram school is what you should consider now.
Chapter completed!
