The seventy-eighth dragon scales (four)

Regarding other people's red eye disease, Zhu Xingyuan was quite calm. He felt that something was wrong and could ask. He thought he could report it if he cheated. No one was holding their legs and not letting them go, but it would be boring if he could only speak sour words, right?

Regarding red eye disease, Zhu Xingyuan's approach is very simple. That is the next two county trials, all of which are the first cases.

Two days later, except for the fact that Zhu Xingyuan refused to believe that he was the top of the list and firmly believed that he was doing evil things, everyone else had already accepted this score. After all, there was a reason for the first exam to take the first exam. You can't dare to make small moves in the second and third games, right? You know that the county magistrate has heard about this, and he also asked several candidates to ask questions. If Zhu Xingyuan really cheated, he would have been arrested!

Wang Shusheng was lucky. Although the first result was invalid, he finally fell on the tail of the county examination after the second and third game, and happened to be one after another with Zhu Xingyuan. He felt that he was much better than Zhu Xingyuan. Now he is under Zhu Xingyuan, and he is naturally dissatisfied.

After the county examination results are made public, the county magistrate will decide and post the test papers of the top three outside the yamen for the candidates to study.

All three papers of Zhu Xingyuan were posted at the front. If you don’t look at the content, you will be the best in it. His calligraphy is elegant and upright, and the others will not be able to catch up with it together. The county magistrate also likes Zhu Xingyuan’s calligraphy very much. He also met Zhu Xingyuan in person and left a handwritten letter with Zhu Xingyuan.

At this moment, the county magistrate just likes calligraphy and painting, and thinks that the candidate's calligraphy is a unique one. He never expected that this handwritten book would become the family heirloom of his family in the future, and countless people came to pay tribute to him.

After looking at the handwriting, I looked at the content. The questions were answered without any missed meaning. Although the county trial was relatively simple, it was not easy to stand out.

After the paper was posted, all the candidates were convinced. Wang Shusheng wanted to say something, but unfortunately his swollen lips and tongue had not yet healed, and he was narrow-minded and often slandered Zhu Xingyuan, which was despised, and no one paid attention to him.

Zhu Dad and Mom Zhu waited at home while working, and she felt no hope for her youngest son’s result this time. Not to mention a scholar, even if she was able to pass the exam for a child, it would be considered as a smoke from the ancestral grave!

The couple had already been mentally prepared to pass the exam. Now they were worried that their young daughter-in-law would have fantasized that they would be so beautiful that when they were shattered, their relationship would also break up? After all, my mother Zhu talked to her young daughter-in-law and asked her indirectly about her attitude towards her young son's study and scientific examination. The young daughter-in-law was full of confidence!

When my mother came back and said this to the old man, the couple felt deeply that they had committed a crime and could not blame such a good girl for being able to take a fancy to their Sier. I am afraid that Sier would say a big talk to them again and coax them!

Look at this county examination, the young daughter-in-law went with her, if it were...

The old couple shivered and quickly worked. If the youngest son was thrown away by someone, at least the family could afford him to eat.

While working hard, someone heard someone shouting: "Dad! Mom! Fourth brother is back!"

It was Zhu Lao San’s wife. When Dad Zhu heard this, he quickly put down his work. Zhu Lao San’s wife looked happy: "Dad! Mom! The fourth brother passed the exam for the Tongsheng exam! It is still the first person in the county test!"

I thought Zhu Dad and Mom Zhu would be happy, but who knew that the two elders took out their ears at the same time and asked in unison: "What did you say?!"

Zhu Lao San’s wife had to repeat: “The fourth brother has passed the exam to the Tongsheng!”

This is amazing!

The old couple threw away the trouble in their hands and rushed home straight! The villagers working in the field next to them heard that Zhu Xiaosi, who had failed for thousands of years, passed the exam for Tongsheng, and they wanted to go with him to watch the fun and see if it was true, so the Zhu family was immediately surrounded.

Then it spread.

Wish Xiaosi!

I wish my father the lazy person who is lazy! He has not passed the exam for several years! This time he took the lead in a county exam!

In an instant, everyone seemed to have forgotten how they used to laugh at Zhu Xiaosi for not passing the exam. They all squeezed into Zhu's family and praised Zhu Xingyuan to the sky. All Wenquxing came out... But my mother Zhu was not humble and bragged to others in a slutty way, saying that when Zhu Xingyuan was pregnant, a fairy-like old Taoist You Fang came to the village. When she saw her belly, she said she was lucky! She said that Wenquxing came down to the earth! Now she looked at it, it was true!

It’s late to achieve great things, their youngest son is late to achieve great things!

After a long time of lively, the people dispersed. Zhu Dad and Mother Zhu were overjoyed. In addition, three sister-in-law who had complaints about Zhu Xingyuan's reading were also honored. They all felt that letting him read the right one!

Later, I learned that after passing the county exam, I was just a child. If I wanted to take the scholar, I had to go to the government exam in April. Only after passing the government exam could I be considered a scholar.

My mother Zhu immediately ordered the whole family not to disturb Sier's study for the past two months, and to let Sier prepare for the exam with peace of mind, and then come back if he takes the exam for a scholar!

My family agrees deeply.

In this way, March and April, Zhu Xingyuan was about to leave for the government office for the exam. This time he still brought Linglong, but Dad Zhu and Mother Zhu did not agree much.

My mother Zhu also came to persuade Linglong. "...You said you are a weak woman and can't do anything. Isn't you causing trouble for your man? Just wait at home, and your mother will take good care of you!"

Now that my youngest has been married for so long, my mother Zhu can understand why my youngest changed so much, it all depends on this little daughter-in-law! Everyone in the village knows that the little fourth in the Zhu family has become diligent after marrying his wife! It is common for cooking and washing clothes for his wife. He cooks the bath water for his wife! I heard that he also washes his wife's feet!

Where can I find such a considerate man in the world?

Although men think that he is not apt to do this and does not have a masculinity, and some women also think that he is not apt to do and always serves his own men, more women are envious. After all, not everyone who marrys a man can be treated as a treasure and is held in his hands and hurts his heart like the young daughter-in-law of the Zhu family.

I also felt sorry for my mother at first, but she didn’t love Linglong, but her youngest son.

You should know that the youngest son does nothing at home, and is raised in a white and tender manner, but when he becomes a kiss, he does everything himself. Isn’t it uncomfortable to see that my mother-in-law Zhu, the mother-in-law? She wants her son to take care of her son because she wants her son to take care of her son, rather than letting her son serve her daughter-in-law!

But every time I face Linglong, my mother Zhu couldn't say these words. She touched her conscience and thought about it. It seemed that it was natural for my youngest son to wash her feet...

"Mom." Zhu Xingyuan came in from outside and frowned slightly when he heard Mr. Zhu's advice from Linglong, "I can't live without her. Once I leave her, I will be lazy and sleepy and don't want to do anything. If you don't let your wife go with me, I'm afraid I don't even want to take the pen."

It scared my mother Zhu!

In the end, she couldn't resist Zhu Xingyuan. No matter how she promised to take good care of his wife, Zhu Xingyuan refused to give in and had to take Linglong with her. What would Zhu do if she could do it?

In fact, Dad Zhu and the three brothers of the Zhu family also privately contacted Zhu Xingyuan, and they all advised him not to spoil his wife too much. He had to let go when he should. He couldn't take his wife with him wherever he went. Is that so reasonable? Don't others laugh at him?

Zhu Xingyuan listened to everything they said, and then refused, not eating the soft and hard.

He bought a carriage in the town. Although it looks simple on the outside, it has been transformed by him. It is not only unique but also has a high level of comfort. The carriage has been shock-absorbing, and it is not a headache to sit for a while like other carriages.

When they left, Zhu's family came out to see him off, and Cuiyun was also among them. Seeing Zhu Xingyuan's eyes lingering, he looked at Zhu Xingyuan coldly. He carried her to the carriage, went up by himself, said goodbye to his family, and then set off on the way.

I wish my father and mother a lifetime living in Dashitou Village. I don’t know what the outside world looks like, otherwise I wouldn’t be relieved that such a thin man, a woman who is so thin, takes her beautiful wife out.

People these days will not leave their hometowns if they have nothing to do. After all, transportation is inconvenient, and there are very few people who can afford a carriage. More lives will die wherever they live.

As soon as he left Dashitou Village, there were no pedestrians on the road. Linglong came out of the carriage and sat next to Zhu Xingyuan. The horse was very obedient. Compared to living with a family, Linglong still prefers this kind of life with only two people. Although Zhu Da Dad and Mother Zhu considered Zhu Xingyuan in everything, he would not treat her as his family after all. This is normal.

Going up to Dashitou Village, the place where the examination was taken for the prefecture was called Tongzhou Prefecture. Dashitou Village is just a small village under the jurisdiction of one of the ten counties under Tongzhou Prefecture. They set out in advance and met some students walking to take the exam on the road. At that time, there were about a hundred exams in the county exam alone, and I guess there would be more people in the prefecture exam.

After walking like this for five days, we arrived at Tongzhou Prefecture. Tongzhou Prefecture is more lively than the county town. The people on the streets dressed better than the people in the county town. There were many small stalls, and inns were not as simple as those in the county town. Instead, they had different rooms and prices. Zhu Xingyuan was not short of money, so he naturally chose to go to the room.

Among the people who came to take the exam, there were also many maids from wealthy families with servants, but very few were carrying their wives like him.

It was a coincidence that the book was written. After they settled down, Zhu Xingyuan prepared to accompany Linglong out for a walk, but he met Wang Shusheng and others who were also coming to take the exam.

Shusheng Wang was obviously still holding a grudge against him, but this time he learned his lesson and was afraid of being cursed, so he didn't sarcastically. He just snorted on his head, then went into the inn and asked for a room. His family was in good condition, but the other two scholars he had with him did not have such good conditions, and he only had ordinary guest rooms.

The scholars who took the exam basically study hard when they went to the inn. After all, as long as they passed the palace examination, they were scholars. They were truly famous people. Not to mention the food subsidized by the court every year, the land under their name alone could be exempted from taxes, which allowed them to have food and clothing.

Only Zhu Xingyuan, holding his wife's hand, went shopping. Tongzhou Prefecture had more delicious food. Linglong was very interested in everything. After eating this and that, Zhu Xingyuan followed her with a good temper. No matter what she wanted, she bought it. She couldn't finish it and entered his stomach. The two of them walked straight until the first time they were on the lanterns before returning to the inn.

They arrived in the morning, but the inns were already full in the evening. Zhu Xingyuan specially chose a house close to the government office. Because the government trial was about to go back, the prices of these inns at least doubled. The environment was as good as that, more than five times more! Some scholars were really short of money and didn't hurry up early, so they had to leave.

Two days later, the government test will start.

While waiting in line to search, Wang Shusheng mocked Zhu Xingyuan: "What, why didn't Brother Zhu bring his sister-in-law with him this time? I also think that Brother Zhu is an unweaned child, and someone has to accompany him wherever he goes."

He had a very provocative meaning in his words, and there were two classmates around him, and the other candidates who were queuing up were also attracted by the movements here.

But this look...is a bit embarrassing.

This candidate who provoked others had an ordinary face, with a garlic head, nose, triangle eyes, and was not good-looking, and was a little short. Looking at the provoked scholar, it made people's eyes shine. Not only was he handsome, but he was full of books and had excellent cultivation. He could not be angry when he was provoked like this, but he seemed to have a bad character before.

Everyone is concerned about it, so naturally they are unwilling to talk to Wang Shusheng. Zhu Xingyuan doesn't speak, but it makes people look at him with admiration.

After the body search was completed, the candidates were assigned to their own exam numbers. When Wang Shusheng saw his exam numbers, his face turned green.

Nothing else, his test number is next to the feces!!!

Looking forward, the damn Zhu Xingyuan actually occupied the best position in the entire mansion test!

It's really angering him!

Unfortunately, he was so far away that even if he was wide open, Zhu Xingyuan couldn't see him. Wang Shusheng angrily entered the exam number. This time it was different from the county exam every day. The government exam took three days, and the exam number was very narrow. Even a short person like Wang Shusheng couldn't straighten his legs even if he lay down, let alone mice!

Wang Shusheng didn't dare to sleep because he was afraid that his paper would be bitten.

After three days of the exam, Shusheng Wang was dizzy and went out. When he saw Zhu Xingyuan, he was sick and had no energy to mock him.

Among the unkempt scholars, only Zhu Xingyuan was like green bamboo, elegant and outstanding. In the eyes of the examiner, he couldn't help but secretly applaud him.

He doesn't wash his face, feet, brush his teeth, or change his clothes for three days. Even if it's not hot in April, he has to search for his body, especially Wang Shusheng. His test number is next to the feces number, and the smell is... It's so fragrant that no one wants to get close to him. Even the two classmates he has had acquaintances with can't be far away from him!

Linglong asked the waiter to prepare hot water early. Zhu Xingyuan could take a shower and change clothes after he came back. He sat in the bathtub to wash. She also came over and smelled the puppy like him, nodding and saying, "Yeah, there is no smell, it's still fragrant."

Zhu Xingyuan smiled and handed her the cloth towel on his hand. She rubbed his back hard, and his smile was as hot as a flower. Zhu Xingyuan felt hot and itchy. He hadn't seen her for three days, and he missed her to the core. He didn't lie to Mrs. Zhu, he really couldn't live without her.

In the end, most of the water in the bathtub was spilled on the ground... The two of them had a long time to get intimate and went out to play the next day.

Tongzhou Prefecture has beautiful scenery. Without Zhu Xingyuan, Linglong lies on the bed for three days to eat and drink, and she has become another Zhu Xiaosi.

She had a veil on her face. Perhaps the candidates had just finished the exam, and they had to stay in the government office to wait for their results. Therefore, before the results were released, everyone had time to go out for a walk everywhere. Some candidates held some poetry meetings and invited talents to attend.

As the head of the case test in one of the counties, Zhu Xingyuan naturally received an invitation. He was not sociable, but he was not arrogant and could not go, so he wrote a sincere letter to go back.

Wang Shusheng is different. When Linglong and Zhu Xingyuan came out early in the morning, he dressed up as a man to attend a poetry meeting. Seeing that they were smiling, he thought Zhu Xingyuan was not invited and looked like a villain was successful.

Linglong said: "Maybe this is the hostility of ugly people towards beauty."

Otherwise, how can we explain Wang Shusheng’s disgust towards Zhu Xingyuan? Being good-looking is troublesome.

They came back happily in the evening, but saw Wang Shusheng and the others eating in the inn hall, with a gloomy expression on their faces. Without asking, they knew that they must have been in the limelight today, and maybe they were even embarrassed.

Linglong was even happier when she saw that Wang Shusheng was unhappy.

On the day the government office was released, before the door was opened, the door was already crowded. From time to time, people screamed and some people shouted that their wallets were gone and their shoes were lost. Despite this, everyone was still full of enthusiasm for the release, hoping that they would be on the list.

Zhu Xingyuan was very calm. He accompanied Linglong to drink tea and play chess, and he didn't even mean to go to the list. Anyway, someone would naturally come to report the good news.

Seeing Zhu Xingyuan looking calm and gentle, Wang Shusheng followed suit, but his appearance and temperament were too different. He just couldn't be more like a dog. He sat there and soon a servant came to his house: "Good news!"

Wang Shusheng stood up suddenly: "But am I?"

The officer smiled and said, "Dare you ask about the name of this young master?"

"My surname is Wang--"
