Xiao Fu Lang is Born with a Good Fate

Xie Ning was playing with carp in the water pool. He had long forgotten the purpose of catching fish. Zhou Jinnian sat on the shore and threw the small porcelain bottle in his hand. Obviously, he was not here to catch fish.

"Ning Lang, come." Zhou Jinnian took the initiative to attack.

His little fish swam over twice in the water, and his two white and tender legs swayed happily in the water like fish tails.

"Jiannian, I teach you to swim, you can swim with me in the future." Xie Ning took the initiative to reach out and drag people.

Zhou Jinnian raised his eyebrows, and the opportunity was actually delivered by himself. He took the opportunity to get into the water, kicked his legs in the water, and relaxed his upper body on the water.

Xie Ning went to hug his waist, Zhou Jinnian sighed comfortably, Xiao Fulang sent him to the door, who can stand it? Following instinct, he hugged Ning Lang, dragged him into his arms and bowed his head to kiss.

Xie Ning opened his mouth and kissed him in a daze, until the hand on his waist covered his tail vertebra again, and he softened his waist, "Hmm...Jiannian?"

Zhou Jinnian dragged him to the shallow shore, holding the person and sitting on the shore, only his waist was exposed above the water, Zhou Jinnian leaned over and used his lips instead of hands to set fire to the person...

"Teach you to consummate the house for your husband."

Xie Ning finally knew what the small porcelain bottle was for. At this time, his upper body was lying on the boulder and his lower body was soaked in the water.

Stimulated by the ice water and the heat, as long as he climbs outside, he will be dragged back by Zhou Jinnian...

…

Xie Ning was hugged by Zhou Jinnian, and his breathing eased as his heart stopped beating violently.

"Is your body uncomfortable?" Zhou Jinnian cared about Ninglang's body, and only took it once.

Xie Ning had just calmed down. Hearing that his face instantly became hot, he was holding Zhou Jinnian's waist, and his face was close to his abdominal muscles.

Seeing his charming appearance, Zhou Jinnian was itchy, the bad factors in his body were causing trouble, so he wanted to be cute, "Well, is it comfortable?"

Then, Zhou Jinnian regretted asking this.

"Hiss!!" Zhou Jinnian gritted his eyebrows and gritted his teeth. The cold little hand on his waist was pinching his flesh. Where is the little fish, it is clearly a little fat shrimp with tongs?

Xie Ning pursed his mouth and snorted, released his hand and continued to put his arms around her husband's waist, and buried his head tightly.

The sun shone from the big hole on his head, making people sleepy. Zhou Ji's young man touched Fu Lang's long black hair. When Ning Lang fell asleep, he took the bamboo basket and dropped it into the fish basket.

Xie Ning was right. Most of the fish in this pool have never seen humans, so they are easy to catch. Only a few people think that the big thing is playing with it, so they will swim and hide.

Zhou Jinnian only fished in shallow water pools, and threw the fish ashore when he had basketed them. When Xie Ning had enough sleep, he would go into the water. He had already basketed half of the fish.

Xie Ning was still a little shy when he woke up. He quietly touched the water in the underground pool. He liked to eat shrimps, but shrimps like to hide in dark places, so he swam towards the pool.

When he got into the water, he locked the fat and fat prawn. Xie Ning approached quietly, but the shrimp was agile. It flicked its legs in the water, and finally got into a black hole and disappeared!

Xie Ning swam over and touched it. He had found another mouth in the pool before, which was originally here.

He emerged from the water and rushed to the fisherman who was on the shore and shouted: "Jiannian, there is a water hole exit here. Let me have a look."

"No!" Zhou Jinnian refused without thinking, "I don't know where to lead, it's dangerous."

Xie Ning floated on the water, pouting his mouth and patted the water in protest.

"Not coming up yet? Huh?" Zhou Jinnian frowned and looked serious.

When Xie Ning saw that her husband was uncompromising, he hurried to the shore, planning to find the opportunity to explore the way on his own.

After confirming that Xiao Fulang would not be in danger, Zhou Jinnian relaxed his face, hugged his little fish and coaxed: "Go and catch some shrimps, I will grill them for you."

Xie Ning "huh" nodded, and immediately shook his legs like a tail.

Zhou Jinnian looked at the little husband playing in the water, and couldn't help but bend his mouth again, feeling that he was raising a well-behaved little milk dog, occasionally tossing outside, but when he shouted, he threw his tail at his arms. .

After spending an afternoon in the cave and driving the ox cart back to the town, Zhou Jinnian clearly felt that Xiao Fulang was more sticky to him. He was so squeamish that he had to sit next to him and lean on his shoulders, but a little bit. Don't think he is hot.

When I reached the town, I saw many people piled up at the gate of the town from a distance, and the gate of the town was not allowed to enter or leave.

The ox cart rushed past and lined up behind the crowd. Zhou Jinnian went forward to listen to the situation. There were several mule carts in front of them who were talking together.

Xie Ning turned the bamboo hat on his head and tied the rope to find Zhou Jinnian's figure. He heard the sound of gongs and drums from afar, and a fast horse flew up.

Horses are not common in small towns, so immediately people wear black hats, and they should be officials. When he gets off the horse, an official will greet him immediately.

The people outside the town Qi Qi looked at the man, Xie Ning also stretched his neck curiously, and Zhou Jinnian walked back, and he set his sight on Jinnian.

"Is it hot?" Zhou Jinnian put his big hand directly into Ninglang's hat, touched his forehead, and explained after relieved: "The capital of the capital is to be an official, and he will return to the hometown for retirement. When they enter the town, we will go home."

Xie Ning grabbed the palm of her husband's hand, held it in his hand and yawned, "Um."

The yawn squeezed out two drops of physiological tears hanging on his eyelashes. He easily wiped his hand with Jiannian's hand, and smiled at Zhou Jinnian after he wiped it off, "Hey..."

Zhou Jinnian's heart melted as he squinted a pair of peachy eyes and grinned with white teeth showing.

The roadside is overgrown with trees, mosquitoes and insects. After waiting for more than half an hour, only half of the body was exposed from the sky, and finally I heard the crowd in front of me shouting: "Come on."

Xie Ning was awakened by the movement of the crowd relying on Zhou Jinnian's sleep, and opened his eyes to see that three magnificent carriages drove over.

Each car is drawn by three large brown horses. The horse body is also covered with red saddles. The horses are tall and strong. The subsequent carriages are very luxurious, covered with crimson embroidered cloth and decorated with white auspicious clouds. .

The carriage came slowly, Xie Ning met the mayor and other officials who had been waiting for a long time to greet him. He was far away and couldn't hear what was said, but it must be kind to see the officials leaning in their hands and tilting their upper body slightly.

However, the curtains on the carriage were never raised. The mayor of Qingshui retreated to the side of the road in embarrassment and watched the luxury carriage enter the town gate and drove towards the market.

The long line dragged behind was supposed to be the treasure and property, and the escort's arm was exposed, dressed as a dart player.

"For such a big battle, there is a big man in Qingshui Town."

"It is said that he has seen the emperor!"

"..."

The entrance and exit of the town gate resumed, but it was filled with people inside and out. After this delay, it was night before the two returned to Shangbei Hutong.

When Lin Jin heard the door rang, he hurried out to welcome him, two buckets of fish poured into the small pond, urging them to eat, "Why is it so late? Come in and eat."

"I encountered an official returning to the town for retirement, and spent some time outside the town." Zhou Jinnian washed his face with water from a well, and invited Xiao Fulang by the way, and wiped it all over.

On Wednesday Feng sat in the main room and then made a bamboo chair with an oil lamp. From a distance, he felt that his son was not like raising a husband, but like raising a son.

When the family sat in the hall for meals, Lin Jin asked curiously: "Why haven't I heard of a big person coming? I heard you say that there were many people in the battle, then where do they live?"

"There is a mansion outside Dongjie Town. When I went to book a table, I heard that it was said that someone had a grand master chair with a pattern inlaid with gold." On Wednesday, Feng Qianer went to order a table, chair stove, and the town ran around. , Can be considered to have penetrated Qingshui Town.

East Street? Zhou Jinnian thought: "Outside East Street? If it's Meihua Villa, it should be Zhu's surname."

If you remember correctly, it was Master Zhu, who had retired from the Ministry of Household, but in this life, how could he return to the Meihua Villa in Qingshui Town? Instead of the original Zhu Mansion in the city?

"Knowing you in Jinnian?"

"I heard it." Zhou Jinnian replied, thinking about it or adding: "I heard that he is not a good person."

Lin Jin said with a smile: "That also has nothing to do with us, we are ordinary people, and we can't meet each other."

Seeing Xie Ning grilling rice with his cheeks stuffed and appetite open, Lin Jin asked, "Ning Lang has a good appetite today. Is he tired of catching fish today?"

"Ah!" Xie Ning choked, "Ahem..."

"What's the matter? Eat slowly, you child, there is still in the stove." Lin Jin got up and poured tea for Xie Ning.

Zhou Jinnian picked up the bowl to cover the corners of his mouth.

Two days later, the ordered tables and chairs were delivered to the yard, everything was ready, and the wonton stall was about to open today.

On Wednesday, Fengsha fish boned and chopped stuffing, Lin Jin rolled the noodles, and Xie Ning chopped pork mash. The fish will be watered when it is cooked, so that a little bit of pork is put in the fish and the filling is firm.

In the midday, the sun was scorching and there were few people on the street. Zhou Laosan and his family set up a wonton stall at the entrance of Shangbei Hutong.

Three round tables, six long benches, two stoves and two pots. Before the flag spreading was made, it was opened in a simple manner.

The lid of the fish head soup was lifted, and the scent floated out. The market was not far from the entrance of the Hutong, and the smelling diners arrived in the street.

On Wednesday, Feng learned a lot from Kofulang. Seeing people staring at their wonton stall, he took the initiative to greet them with a smile, "Is the nobleman coming to eat a bowl of fish wonton? Fish filling, fish head soup."

"I haven't seen it before? How do you sell a bowl?" The man looked at Lin Jin, who was sitting on a round table with a bowl of meat filling in front of him, making small wontons.

"One bowl of twelve texts, on the first day of opening today, two more wontons for each bowl." Their fillings are just thinner than dumplings, and the thick fillings are larger, so they are quite large.

The price is not expensive. You must know that the shredded pork noodles in the market are all ten words, but the main purpose of the noodles is to satisfy the taste, "then cook a bowl."

The charcoal fire was boiling slowly, and Wednesday Feng was fanning the stove while Lin Jin was preparing to cook wontons. The first time he was doing business, he was very anxious.

Fortunately, the first guest was honest and did not urge him. He waited until the other two tables were full before serving the wontons. When collecting the money, Wednesday Feng exempted the first guest from two cents.

Every time the wontons are cooked, they will go to Fengduan on Wednesday. Xie Ning and Lin Jin take turns cooking wontons and wrapping wontons.

There are not many diners in the afternoon, and the family can still be busy.

After noon, when it was dinner time, the number of diners suddenly increased. The three of them performed their duties. Xie Ning was in charge of the chef, and Lin Jin was quick to make wontons, and Wednesday Feng greeted the guests and fanned the fire.

After an hour passed, the sky dimmed, but it was not dark. There is no meat at all, but there are still a lot of diners who come to smell the fragrance.

"Sorry, on the first day of the opening, the filling preparation is less. If the honorable people appreciate their faces, tomorrow, I will give one more wonton per bowl." Wei Feng smiled and apologized.

Many people agreed to come tomorrow and turned away. Some still stayed and said, "Isn't that better skin? Give me a bowl of noodles, which is cheaper. I will drink fish head soup."

"I'll also have a bowl of dough and garlic cloves."

"That's all right, you sit down for a while." Feng Yiguo answered Wednesday.

Now the wonton stall had to work overtime, and the stall was closed until the time had passed.

The family did not expect that this business is so good, sixty bowls are not enough to sell! The family casually cooked dinner and discussed the amount of wontons to be sold tomorrow.

Xie Ning commented, "Let's roll out some noodles and sell fish wonton noodles."

"It's feasible, half of the wontons are replaced with noodles, the price is still the same, and it's a lot of money."

Lin Jin also said: "Prepare more garlic, some diners like this."

Zhou Jinnian can only look at the family's money, because the autumn harvest has passed, he has already entered a school, and his studies are heavy.

…

In the past few months selling wontons in the town, Xie Ning had the happiest time. The family had already accumulated some money, and the family planned to save them. After Zhou Jinnian passed the exam, he decided to buy a yard.

Zhou Jinnian also had the exam right away, and his elder brother Xie Yao also came to his home to live for a few days to facilitate the exam.

There is a local custom to eat cakes and rice dumplings before the exam. The cakes are the same height, which means high school, so Xie Ning makes cakes and rice dumplings in the kitchen room.

Soak the glutinous rice and wrap it with zong leaves into small triangle shapes. After steaming, dip in sugar. Because Zhou Jinnian doesn't like to eat sweets, Xie Ning's bag is small, and the small triangle is chubby lying on the palm of his hand.

The examination room was set up at the prefectural office in Fucheng. Qingshui Town was not far from Fucheng, but you still had to live in an inn in Fucheng. The family now doesn't lack the few slivers of silver.

You can’t bring water in the exam room, you have to buy it right now. I heard from the master of the year that a pot of hot water costs 40 ren, and you have to pay 100 ren to seal the paper after the exam. After the exam, thank you teacher and so on are not small expenses. .

In order to allow her husband and brother to eat well during the exam, Xie Ning made his own dry food.

Boil the prawns with salt and expose them to the sun every day, and finally chop the dried prawns. Reheat the pan without oil, fry the rice and sesame seeds, add star anise and bay leaves and other seasonings, fry them and beat them to cool, and finally stir them with the salty prawns and pack them with two clean cloth tapes.

Xie Ning also prepared two more clean cloth belts, because when entering the examination room, the examiner will check the cloth belts to prevent candidates with rice from cheating on the cloth bags.

Xie Ning took the cooked rice dumplings, soaked two bowls of dried shrimp and rice porridge, and took them to the study. His elder brother and husband just finished the article.

"Are you free? Eat a cake and leave tomorrow. I made some dry food for you to try." Xie Ning went over and put a bowl in front of them.

Xie Yao first picked up the bowl and took a sip. The rice grains were scorched and the salted shrimp served as a flavor. He praised his younger brother and said, "Brother Ning has always been good at cooking and delicious."

"I heard from your master that only steamed buns are sold in hot water in the examination room. Bring the fried rice in and soak it in hot water and you can eat it."

Xie Yao saw that his brother had peeled off a rice dumpling, ignoring him and handing it over to his husband, feeling sad, but after thinking about it, his brother and Jiannian had a deep relationship, and he was more relieved.

Zhou Jinnian really doesn't like to eat sweets, so he just ate a small cake dumpling and dropped his chopsticks. "The cake dumplings are sticky and difficult to melt, and Ninglang also eats less."

Xie Ning nodded obediently, and after dipping sugar and eating two small rice dumplings, he went out of the yard to help out at the wonton stall without disturbing their studies.

In February, when the temperature is low, the pedestrians on the road wear padded jackets, and the wealthy and wealthy people will wear cloaks, and the ground is cold and hard, giving a chill.

Xie Ning walked slowly holding the bowl, step by step, he walked in a hurry the other day, he fell, his **** hurt for two days, and a pile of bowls broke, but he was distressed.

It's cold, and the business of the wonton stall has increased a lot, because it sells heart-warming hot soup, the people working in the town are still willing to come and eat a bowl.

There is oil and water in my stomach, and I can work harder.

"Is it cold? Why don't you stay at home?" Lin Jin took the bowl in his arms, and there were a few fat rice dumplings inside.

"It's not cold, Jinnian and brother are learning, don't disturb them at home." Xie Ning was actually very cold, and sat down by the brazier and stretched out his hands to warm the fire. After the first snowfall, he and Jinnian slept together.

There is a big brazier in the middle of several tables. When diners are waiting for the wontons, they can be warmed by a fire. Occasionally, they will be warm. On Wednesday, Feng Feng couples are kind and don't drive them away.

Lin Jin went to serve a bowl of hot fish soup for Erfulang, "Then you roast it here, I bake a sweet potato under the charcoal, you can eat it."

Xie Ning took iron tongs to the brazier. The sweet potatoes were slightly hard when they were pinched, but they were indeed cooked. Xie Ning especially liked to eat the ones that were roasted to this level, waxy but not soft, and sweet and powdery.

Feeling that someone was staring at him all the time, Xie Ning was very uncomfortable. He turned his head and looked at it. There were three men sitting on the round table. The fat man in the middle was the fat man staring at him.

It's not the first time this fat diner has come. Xie Ning's face is familiar, but the fat man's eyes make him feel like the fish on the chopping board.

Staring at him every time he came, Xie Ning turned his back to endure the discomfort, and continued to nibble on the roasted sweet potatoes.

The fat man's name is Zhu Dachang, and his former Huhu was stunned by this stunning glance...

A few days ago, Zhu Dachang heard from his entourage that there was a wonton stall in the north of Qingshui Town. The wontons were made of fish and the soup was boiled with fish heads. He had the same color and appetite in his life. He came to taste the delicious food in the evening.

It just so happened that Lin Jin went back to cook dinner that day, Xie Ning was in charge, and Zhu Dachang sat down and looked around. He was surprised by the side of the man before the pot, staring at people the whole time.

I immediately asked the entourage and learned that Xiaolangjun is already a husband, Zhu Dachang sighed, this Xiaolangjun is no longer innocent, and no matter how good-looking he is, he can't be admitted into the door.

On the way back, I entered the land of fireworks and called the most beautiful girl in the Xianglou to work hard, but she didn't have much energy.

After Zhu Dachang went back, he suffered from lovesickness. No, he came to the wonton stall again.

He thought of a child born in Xiaolangjun's husband district. Zhu Dachang didn't pay attention to him, and the beautiful little Langjun could still have fun.

Zhu Dachang gave a light cough, his entourage immediately understood, and shouted in a rough voice: "Hey? Why don't you peel this garlic? Xiao Langjun, please peel this garlic."

The three of Zhou's family were taken aback, and temporarily stopped moving.

The entourage slapped a palm on the round table, "Can't understand people?"

On Wednesday, Feng stopped inciting, with a smile on his face, and walked over and said: "Oh, a few nobles have misunderstood, the garlic is peeled by the guests themselves, if we peel the skin, we fear that the garlic will become dirty, if you don’t think so. , I will strip it for you?"

The entourage blocked Wednesday Feng's hand touching the garlic, "Hey, go, your hand just burned, let the little man peel it."

"The nobleman joked, that's my son Fulang, what's the difference." Wei Feng stopped laughing on his face.

Zhu Dachang kicked the entourage under the table. The entourage had no good brains and could only shout: "Peel the garlic!"

This is obviously a fault. Xie Ning didn't want to cause trouble. He cleaned his hands in a bucket on the side, peeled five or six garlic cloves nearby, put them in an empty bowl, and said calmly, "Father, my status is inconvenient." , Please pass it over. My husband asked me to send the rice dumplings, and I will go back."

"Okay, go home quickly." Feng Feng said hurriedly, and went to pick up the bowl.

Xie Ning deliberately raised the volume so that the surrounding diners could hear him. Zhu Dachang heard his crisp and waxy voice, which was like a string, and it was even more tickling.

The peeled garlic cloves they wanted were placed on the table, and the entourage was not a flexible mind, and was silent for a while.

Zhu Dachang baffledly looked at the person's leaving back, Xie Ning's hair blown by the cold wind, like that seductive thread wrapped around Zhu Dachang's heartstrings, making him dream of...

Xie Ning hurried back to the yard.

In the evening, Xie Ning spread two quilts and made a nest by himself. Zhou Jinnian naturally got into his bed after washing and hugged him tightly.

"Huh?" Xie Ning made a profit. "You will leave for the county hospital test tomorrow. What if I freeze you in the cold?"

"Nafujun will make you warm up." Zhou Jinnian put his arms around the person and leaned in.

"Yeah..." Xie Ning was grabbed, and although he twisted his body, he felt nostalgic for her husband's warm embrace, "Don't!"

Zhou Jinnian overturned his throat and murmured softly, "I haven't seen you for nearly ten days since I'm here, so let your husband be happy."

Xie Ning stretched out his hand to cover his mouth, his body was already weakened by the heat, and Zhou Jinnian could only do whatever he wanted.

Zhou Jinnian's successful laughter was low and sweet, and he asked for a few words from time to time. The shameful Xie Ning's face was bloodshot and the heat was boiling.

Since Zhou Jinian knew that Xiao Fulang was more afraid of cold in winter than ordinary people, he increased his morning exercises. In order to keep fit, and to resist the wind and cold, he drank a bowl of **** soup every day. After a few months, I also got used to Xiao Fu Lang's body temperature, and I was very relieved that Xiao Fu Lang finally did not think he was hot anymore.

Xie Ning was emotional, and the voice exhaled from his throat shattered. He had no consciousness and did not control the volume. Zhou Jinnian was full of motivation to listen.

Fortunately, Wednesday, Feng and his wife lived in the distant wing, but Xie Yao, who was next door, felt uncomfortable. After listening to the live erotica for one night, he was embarrassed and wanted to marry...

Early the next morning, Zhou Jinnian cooked **** soup, took a bowl by himself, and fed Ninglang a bowl in the room, and then set off with Xie Yao to take a carriage at the inn.

Xie Ning was tired all night, drank the soup in a daze, and fell asleep again. When he woke up again, the sky was bright, and he hurried out of the room wearing a cotton jacket. Only his father and dad were busy with wonton fillings and skins in the courtyard.

"Wake up? Warm the bun in the stove, take it to eat." Wei Feng saw him first and called him.

"Father, Shannian is gone?"

The answer was Daddy Lin Jin, "Go, with your eldest brother as company, it's okay, wait for him to come back with peace of mind."

"Oh." Xie Ning answered, feeling a little disappointed.

The fillings and skins were all ready, and the three began to move tables and chairs, and set up the stall at midday. When it was still on fire, there were regular customers waiting.

On Wednesday Feng felt that this day is much more comfortable than in the village. His small business, wontons are really delicious, and the diners respect him.

There were more contacts, and he also made a few friends. Occasionally, he didn't pay a stall on rainy days. He went to find friends to drink a little wine and listen to a book. The days were pleasant and prosperous.

It's like being in a village, because he was lame, and there was no labor in the fields, so people looked down upon him. He was stuck in the Zhou family's old house and he was not free.

Now the wonton stall has increased to six tables. Chou Shi is already full of people, but Lin Jin is not happy because there is a table and it is the fat pig who came to find the fault yesterday.

Although Ninglang was sent home to stay after the stall, Lin Jin looked at the alley while cooking the wontons, for fear that Ninglang would come to deliver the food, and he was bumped into and asked to peel the garlic.

The prevailing ethos just didn't support Xiao Fulang and his daughter-in-law outside, but because they were close to home, the town was small, and people who came and went were familiar with each other, so they relaxed a little.

In fact, for the good of Ninglang, he should not be asked to go out. In case something happens, the people will only say that he shouldn't come out instead of blaming the gangster and the prodigal son.

On Wednesday Feng was washing the dishes on the sidelines. They had stalled for half a year and no longer needed to greet the diners. The diners would sit down and wait for the wontons to be served.

Xie Ning finished cooking, carried out the door in the food box, and turned to the alley of the entrance and exit. He saw his father waving a spoon to fish for wontons from afar, and he took a few steps toward the stall.

Lin Jin habitually glanced towards the alley and saw Kofu Lang, put down the bowl with his right hand, and waved his hand against his chest, with fingertips pointing down to drive people.

Xie Ning didn't know why, but seeing his father stern, he put the food box on the ground and pointed towards the home. Seeing his father nod his head, he understood.

Although he didn't know what happened, Xie Ning understood that Dad meant that he would not ask for the wonton stall. He simply turned around and went home, leaving only the food box in the middle of the alley.

After a while, Wednesday Fengxian went back to carry the food box.

At the time of the year, the last group of people who ate the food was gone, and there were only the three fat pigs left at the wonton stall. There must not be any act of chasing off customers when doing business. Lin Jin greeted her husband to sit on the table and eat.

Zhu Dachang was waiting for his life, but he didn't see the fairy Xiaolang appearing that day. It was cold outside, and he had been sitting again. It was really cold now, so he had to kick his entourage.

The entourage immediately took out the purse and said, "Store, check out."

On Wednesday Feng put down the bowl, wiped his mouth and came over, "Thirty-six articles."

The entourage took out a piece of silver and threw it over, and Wednesday Feng caught it, "You guys, wait a minute, I'll figure out how much is left..."

"It tastes good, I appreciate it." Zhu Dachang stood up, just wanting to hurry up to the Fragrant House and hug the girl to warm up.

"Oh, thank you for that!" Wei Feng swallowed the phrase "come often".

Lin Jin looked at the back of the three people swaggering away, and snorted, "What's the matter..."

On Wednesday Feng listened to it funny, reached out his hand to poke Hafulang, and sighed nostalgicly: "Oh, how many years have you heard you curse?"

Lin Jin gave him an angry look, "You owe it! If you dare to mess with me, I'll just get started, who has the time to scold you?"

"Eh eh eh, I just complain, I dare not provoke you."

Lin Jinshu breathed a sigh of relief and thought of his children again, "Well, if our son is hit, we move to the provincial capital and we also open a shop. It is not a solution to always support the stall. The summer is hot and the autumn is freezing."

"Yes, didn't our son also plan like this?"

"The younger brothers and sisters are there again, Ning Lang hasn't moved in his stomach all the time, alas..."

"What the **** is doing, sooner or later." On Wednesday, Feng packed up the dishes and threw them in the basin.

…

The hospital test is divided into two sessions, one test one day, the first test, two essays and one poem; the second re-examination, one essay and one poem.

The first person in the hospital examination is called the case leader, and the winner is called Xiucai, and all those who are awarded must enter the Fuzhou Academy. Those who are in the forefront of two trials and one class will receive a monthly payment to subsidize their living. The residence is limited to forty people and can receive four taels of silver per month.

Zhou Jinnian was reading at the Tongji Inn at this time. Xie Yao opened the window and saw students rushing for the exam everywhere. He sighed, and Xie Yao said: "Oh, other inns are lively and there are crowds of literati, let’s take a look at our inn. Quiet out of the ghost."

"Quiet means calm, just reading a book." Zhou Jinnian didn't care.

Xie Yao laughed and paced back and sat down, "What do you think the shopkeeper of the inn thinks? Take a childish character? Except for the two of us who are confident, we really dare to live in before the exam, I'm afraid we will still be a child after the exam."

Zhou Jinnian read the book and didn't speak any more. He was fancying this. There were no candidates living in Tongji Inn, so it was quiet. He had a good rest at night.

On the day of the exam, before dawn, the two of them got up to wash, bring dry food, and rushed to the state office to gather with the old and young talents who had pledged them.

The old scholar led the five of them to line up. During the long wait, Xie Yao looked at the line behind him from time to time. There were long queues of scholars. Among the crowd were those with tender faces and newly crowned faces. Of course, there were also beards hanging down and white silk hidden in the hair. Middle-aged child.

It is also normal. The hospital exams are taken twice every three years, and the Daqing Dynasty only admits 25,000 people each time.

Xie Yao saw someone stomping his feet to keep warm, and said to Zhou Jinnian in front of him: "It's still your wisdom. I drank **** soup before leaving. It's really not too cold right now."

Zhou Jinnian turned around and prepared to speak, the old Xiucai hurriedly said: "It's us, let's go."

Before entering the venue, there was a body search, and the dry grain rice that you brought with you had to be poured out for inspection. If it exceeds the size of the rice grain, it is not allowed to be brought into the venue.

The officers and soldiers first checked the empty cloth bag that Zhou Jinnian handed over, then took the dry food and poured it in, and then checked another cloth bag to confirm that there was no problem before letting it go.

After entering the arena, there is also a guarantor appointed by the government, who is also a scholar, in case the examinee buys the young talent to cheat.

If cheating is discovered, the two guaranteed talents will both be held responsible, the government benefits will be revoked and the talents will be delisted.

Five people in Zhou Jinnian entered the examination shed in order, separated by a wall between the shed and the shed. A stone bed is built in the shed, a desk is set up, and the examinee sits on the bed to take the exam.

Just getting acquainted with the environment, two officers and soldiers came to hand out examination papers, pens, inkstones, and bells. One officer came to verify that he was standing and stamped the word ‘right’ on the examination papers.

After the officers and soldiers left, Zhou Jinnian began to grind. When the test papers were distributed, it was dawn, and the invigilator Xuezheng came late.

Master Xuezheng was holding the booklet, reading the rules of the examination room as he walked, and then announced that the examination would begin.

Zhou Jinnian unhurriedly unwrapped the volume and scanned the test questions. Unsurprisingly, the three questions are from the "Four Books", and each question requires an answer within 700 words.

In the poem, ‘Lian’ is designated as the theme, and a poem is composed of the seven-character rhythm.

The examinees in the examination booth opposite Zhou Jinnian had already begun to write fast.

Seeing that Zhou Jinnian was still sitting in distress, the old scholar was not in a hurry. Anyway, he had already collected the money as a guarantee, and he didn't care about it.

Zhou Jinnian ran through the answer in his mind before he picked up his pen and started writing...

At noon, the officers and soldiers began to hand out lunch, one person and two steamed buns. After answering two questions, they handed the prepared copper coins to the officers and soldiers and bought a pot of boiling water.

Eating steamed buns and drinking hot rice porridge, I heard that there was a heart-piercing cough among candidates in the distance. Most of the scholars were weak and did not exercise or work.

Zhou Jinnian often exercised, chopping wood and sweeping the yard, helping Ning Lang chop meat.

He sleeps with an iceman in his arms every night, exercises a strong body, not afraid of the cold at all.

The examinee on the opposite side of Zhou Jinnian frequently visited him, and the guarantor knocked on the edge of the window as a warning. The only blame is Zhou Jinnian's soaked rice porridge that is so fragrant, and Xie Ning uses enough ingredients to fry it.

After eating and drinking, eating hot soup, Zhou Jinnian answered the question again.

Master Xuezheng patrolled all the way, and first saw Zhou Jinnian showing a talented person. He sat like loose hands without shaking. He had a good feeling. When he leaned closer to see, the candidate was still as stable as Mount Xuezheng, and Master Xuezheng nodded in his heart.

Look at the test paper again, the standard pavilion body, beautiful and beautiful, elegant and mellow, good words! The name column says Zhou Jinnian, and Master Xuezheng strokes his beard and walks forward.

Zhou Jinnian looked at the word ‘Lian’ and thoughtfully, the first thing he thought of was Ning Lang who had fallen into the lotus pond, and then he thought of Ning Lang’s white skin, which was not stained by the silt...

After finishing the poem, Zhou Jinnian put down his pen and waited for the test bell to ring and the officers and soldiers unified the paper.

In the early spring, the temperature was low, and there was no peculiar smell in the test shed, but from time to time, the examinees were so weak that they could not stop coughing.

At that moment, the test bell finally rang, and the officers and soldiers came to seal the papers one after another. It was still two officers and soldiers, one cashier, each examinee handed in one hundred papers, and the other sealed the papers.

After all five of them had collected their papers, the old Xiucai led them out of the examination room.

As soon as they left the examination room, these scholars were chattering and discussing in full swing, Zhou Jinnian met Zhou Wenshu and Liu Shu Zhou Feng.

Zhou Wenshu came over and greeted him: "Second brother, which inn do you live in?"

"Tong Ji Inn." Zhou Jinnian replied, without honoring the two of them.

Zhou Wenshu and Saturday Feng's faces were a little gloating, but they didn't say anything, Zhou Wenshu invited: "I have dinner with my classmates to discuss today's exam questions. Do you want to go together?"

After all the exams were finished, Zhou Jinnian didn't have this leisurely mind. Moreover, he understood that Zhou Wenshu's group of scholars gathered together and couldn't talk about the topic.

"No, I have an appointment with Xie's parents and sons. You get together." Zhou Jinnian nodded at them and took Xie Yao back to the Tongji Inn.

Zhou Jinnian is really good. Zhou Wenshu and his classmates had a room in the restaurant. Several people talked about the wine and talked a few words. One of them was a little older and said, "This is just the beginning. If you go to Beijing to rush for the exam, you will have a beautiful adventure along the way..."

"Hahaha..." Everyone laughed, Zhou Wenshu has not yet decided to marry him, it is normal for them to think about each other.

This Saturday, Boss Feng is no longer young, and he has his wife and son, and he is also holding this dream. He hopes that he will be best served as the description of this office. He will first be appointed to the capital, and then be patrolled as the son-in-law of the adult, and finally leave his wife and Pan Gaozhi. .

There were countless people like him in the Daqing dynasty. The tofu lady sold tofu every day for the scholars to rush to take the exam. In the year of the rural examination, there was no news when the scholars went there. The lady tofu waited for three years and sent home a letter of leave. It turned out that she was in high school in one fell swoop, and she had already climbed the high door since she was in the eyes of Mr. Patrolling!

At this time, most scholars heard this story, and only Taoist scholars had this adventure, and they yearned for it.

A group of scholars were drunk and helped each other back to the inn.

After nine years of exams on Saturday, he has rich experience and only a few drinks. Looking at a group of drunks, he said: No wonder classmates, competition is fierce, and he is also afraid of the exam. In the tenth year, he must have won this talent.

The next day, the inn Xiaoer slammed the door and awakened the scholars. The shopkeeper shook his head. It seems that this year he will not be able to get out of the case in this inn.

Fortunately, the hospital exam is not as good as the township exam. The township exam is in the exam shed for three days, eating and drinking Lazarus in the three-meter area.

On the second day, the examination will be conducted on the "Five Classics", one essay and one poem. Zhou Jinnian deliberated and answered questions in his mind as usual, and then wrote it down carefully.

Some candidates were carried out not far away, and their bodies were so empty that they fainted after a cold spell. Master Xuezheng shook his head, like this, how can you participate in the rural examination?

The second exam will be collected one hour earlier, and there is no need to pay the sealing fee, so you can get out of the exam booth soon.

Xie Yao shook his head, relaxed his neck, and invited Zhou Jinnian to have a drink to relax and relax, "It will be released in five days. Let's have a drink and relax for a night?"

"Don't eat flower wine." Zhou Jinnian teased his eldest brother.

Xie Yao laughed out loud
