Chapter 74 County Examination Whole Chapter Is Examination

    At three o'clock in the morning, Tao Zhu got up from the warm blanket, and he got up to make breakfast.

Because Li Qiao had to stay in the examination room all day, he had to make Li Qiao's lunch.

All the dishes he made were light, noodle soup, green onion omelette, shepherd's purse omelet, radish and pork stuffed buns, each with only a little bit of oil.

In addition, there are steamed buns that Li Qiao needs to bring into the examination room.

In order to prevent candidates from bringing cheat sheets, people will search their bodies before entering the examination room, even the food, so Tao Zhu only prepared steamed buns for Li Qiao.

In fact, he wanted to prepare scallion pancakes, but Li Qiao said that if the scallion pancakes were hard and dry after cooling, they were not as good as steamed buns, so he steamed the steamed buns.

At five o'clock, Li Qiao, Tao Zhu, and Huang Youming left home and went to the examination room.

There is a special examination room for the county examination. Just behind the county government office is a large courtyard, which is called the examination shed.

The test shed in Pingcheng was built in the previous dynasty, and the county government in Pingcheng is as dilapidated. It faces north from south, and the north gate is the main gate, called "Dragon Gate".

When the three of Li Qiao arrived at the test shed, there were already many people gathered at the entrance of the test shed.

In addition to the candidates, there are also the family members of the candidates. The imperial examination is a major event. Many candidates are accompanied by their family members, just like Li Qiao and Tao Zhu.

Before dawn, Li Qiao could only distinguish the people around by the light of the lantern at the entrance of the examination shed. Li Qiao was planning to look for Meng Yue and Xu Ying, when a voice suddenly came from behind: "Brother Li!

" Sheng Sheng looked behind him and saw Meng Yue standing more than two meters away from him, waving at him with her big white teeth bared.

Li Qiao also laughed, and pulled Tao Zhu towards Meng Yue.

The village where Meng Yue's family lives is relatively remote, and it takes a whole day to walk to the county seat. Meng Yue doesn't want to make his family suffer, so now he is alone, and there is no one else to accompany him for the exam.

As soon as he greeted Meng Yue, Li Qiao saw Xu Ying, who was still standing beside Xu Ying.

The three said a few words, and Zhuang Wen also arrived.

Zhuang Wen, as a granary student, needs to enter the examination room today to provide security for Li Qiao, Meng Yue, and Xu Ying.

A few people gathered together and didn't say anything else, just asked each other if they had brought all the pens, inkstones, inkstones, food, etc., and how not to be nervous later.

About a quarter of an hour later, several yamen servants came over.

The test booth soon became quiet.

These yamen servants asked the idlers to back off, and asked the candidates to line up and prepare to enter the examination room.

Tao Zhu handed the test basket in his hand to Li Qiao, and then held Li Qiao's other hand: "Don't be nervous, I'll wait for you outside." "

Don't be nervous either. Also, after I go in, you and Mr. Huang will go home , it's too cold outside, and I didn't come out until this afternoon."

Li Qiao held his hand and told him earnestly, not wanting him to wait outside.

It is next to the county government office, so it is empty, there are no shops or stalls, if you wait for a long time, you have to stand.

There's no need to be tired of it.

"Okay, I'll go home after you go in." Tao Zhu nodded.

But he thought it over in his heart, so he didn't go back.

I'm sure I won't be able to do any work after I go back. Instead of doing this, I might as well just stay here and wait.

"That's good." Li Qiao scratched his palm lightly as he said, and said with a smile, "I want to eat boneless pig's trotters. How about you stew some of them today? Let them stew for a whole day until I finish the exam." You can eat it."

Tao Zhu: "..."

Okay.

He has nothing to do with this person: "I'll go buy pig's trotters later."

"Brother Zhu is so nice~ Li Qiao can't live without Brother Zhu, just like an examinee can't live without a test basket!" Li Qiao said shaking Shaking the test basket in the other hand.

Tao Zhu: "..."

This is the entrance of the examination room!

His face was a little hot, but his watery eyes were curved.

It seems that this person is really not nervous, and he can still talk sweetly at such a time.

Forget it, he wasn't nervous anymore.

Anyway, try your best, and leave the rest to God.

He will buy more pig's trotters later, and have a good time tonight!

Thinking like this, he said a few more words to Li Qiao, and then retreated into the distance with Huang Youming.

Li Qiao started to line up.

There are about a hundred candidates for the county examination this year, which is about the same as in previous years.

When it was almost Li Qiao's turn, there was a little commotion in front of him. It turned out that some candidates wanted to secretly give money to the yamen servant who was being searched, but the yamen servant not only refused to collect the money, but even found out this person.

Li Qiao couldn't help feeling emotional again, this Dasheng is really a paradise.

Soon it was Li Qiao's turn to enter.

The yamen servant in charge of the body search was very conscientious. He searched from head to toe, even spreading out his hair. The brushes, inkstones and inkstones in the examination basket were also checked carefully, especially the inkstones, which were the key search targets of the government officials because they were convenient for hiding cheat sheets.

And Tao Zhu's steamed white steamed buns just this morning were also broken into several pieces.

After the body search, Li Qiao entered the north gate with the test basket.

Before going in, he glanced back, the sky was not yet bright, and Tao Zhu was standing far away, even if he had good eyesight, he couldn't see Tao Zhu's expression clearly.

However, he could see Tao Zhu waving at him.

Reassured, he smiled slightly and walked into the dragon gate.

The entrance is a large yard, and there are three halls on the north side of the yard. Tables and chairs have been placed in the halls.

The county test is an initial test for scholars, and the standard is a bit low. All candidates stay in the hall to answer the questions. The kind of treatment that each candidate has in a small grid room is only available during the exam.

At this moment, the examinees who entered Li Qiao first were standing in the courtyard, waiting for Jiangzhi County to roll their names.

Soon, all the candidates entered the yard.

At this time, Jiang County Magistrate brought Bai Jiaoyu, Shen Xuezheng, and several teachers and students from the county school into the courtyard.

Next, all the candidates bowed to Jiangzhi County, and then Jiangzhi County took the resume and insurance policy filled out during the registration, carefully checked the appearance characteristics of each candidate, and asked the students and candidates to verify each other.

Every time a candidate is checked, Jiangzhi County will personally send the test paper to the candidate, and then the test taker will enter the hall in the north to find a seat.

Seats are arranged according to the order of registration, so there is no need to worry about competition.

When it was Li Qiao's turn, the magistrate Jiang took a business-like attitude, as if he didn't know him, and called his name with a solemn face: "Sanli Town, Sanliu Village, Li Qiao.

" It was drawn to Li Qiao.

There was no internet at this time, and although everyone in Pingcheng knew the name Li Qiao, they didn't know what he looked like.

Now hearing Jiang Zhixian calling out this name, the other candidates couldn't help but look at him.

This is Li Qiao?

She is quite slender, with outstanding facial features... Well, how can people not be envious of this!

It's fine for her to be good-looking, but she even got a commendation from the Holy One!

With this relationship, as long as he didn't answer the questions indiscriminately, he would definitely pass the county test this time.

Alas, envy!

Li Qiao has long been used to the attention of everyone, ignoring everyone's different gazes, he stepped forward with a calm expression.

Jiangzhi County checked his appearance and asked Zhuang Wen, Meng Yue, and Xu Ying to testify. After going through this process, he sent the test paper and straw paper to him.

After getting the test paper, Li Qiao looked down at his test number: 78.

He signed up too late, so the test number is relatively late.

Holding the test paper and test basket, he entered the hall in the middle.

His position was near the door, which was not a good position because the hall was closed and it was cold in February.

Moreover, in order to prevent cheating, candidates are not allowed to go to the toilet, no matter how big or small they are, they are settled in the corner of the hall, the corner is not covered, only the toilet is placed.

His position was at the back, so he was naturally close to the toilet.

However, fortunately, his position is on the left side of the door, and the toilet is on the right side. As long as he is fully focused, it will not affect him.

When all the candidates were seated, it was finally dawn.

After the idlers left, Jiang Zhixian personally locked the door of the examination shed, and then announced the questions.

The papers at this time did not print the questions directly on the paper like modern papers. The papers at this time were white paper with red horizontal lines, with only the test number on it and no other words.

After getting the test paper, the examinee first writes his name and hometown above the red horizontal line. This part will be sealed after the test, so that the examiner will not judge the result by looking at the name.

Soon, a yamen servant came over holding a wooden board with today's topic written on it.

Today is the first session of the county examination, which is called the main session, so there are quite a lot of tests, including the four items of Mo Yi, Tie Jing, Poetry and Song Fu, and Policy Theory.

But because there are many exams, the questions are relatively simple.

The first test was Mo Yi, and at this time the yamen servant's wooden board was written with Mo Yi's questions.

Li Qiao quickly copied it down, and then began to answer the questions.

There are a total of ten questions, all of which revolve around the Four Books, not even the Five Classics, Li Qiao is very satisfied.

The first thing he read was the Four Books, and he had already memorized it fluently. He picked up the pen and began to answer the questions on the straw paper.

After writing on the straw paper, he added, subtracted, and daubed it until he felt that there was no problem with the answer, and then he copied it on the paper.

After copying, he checked it again to confirm that it was correct, and then raised his eyes to look at the situation in the examination room.

The chief examiner, Jiang Zhixian, sat at the head and could not move around in the hall.

Bai Jiaozheng told Shen Xuezheng and several instructors to stay outside the hall and not to enter the hall.

This is to prevent these people from giving hints to candidates or doing other things.

Li Qiao only glanced at it, and then lowered his eyes again. As far as he could see, several candidates had already put down their brushes. It seemed that his speed was not too fast.

Soon, the yamen servant came over holding the board again.

This time it is the topic of the post.

Tiejing, in simple terms, is to fill in the blanks.

This one is simpler than Mo Yi. There are thirty questions in total, and the content revolves around the Four Books and Five Classics, all of which are in the original text.

This level is the easiest. All the candidates answered very quickly. If you can, you will, and if you don't, you won't. You don't need to worry about it.

So soon the yamen servant came over again holding the wooden board.

The third test is poetry and songs.

The title is given to the poems about spring in the "Book of Songs", and ask to write a poem about spring around these few lines.

Writing poetry, for Li Qiao, is weaker than calligraphy. He lost the calmness of the first two levels, and stared at the topic with bitterness and hatred, his brain spinning rapidly.

In terms of talent, he must be inferior to other candidates.

For example, Meng Yue and Xu Ying.

Don't look at Meng Yue as a carefree and strong man, but his poems are quite clever, which doesn't match his rough appearance at all.

Xu Ying was the same, he looked like a handsome scholar, but he was actually unrestrained, he could write poems with ease, and the content was very generous.

Both of these two people beat him up. He wrote poems in order to pursue rhyme, which was completely made up without inspiration.

Since there is no aura, then pursue the content.

The topic of spring is very big, and there are many aspects that can be written, but because the judge of the county test is Jiangzhi County, so he has to follow Jiangzhi County's preferences.

What does Jiangzhi County like?

Jiangzhi County likes people to be rich.

So he had an idea, he started with spring plowing, and told about the difficulties of farmers in farming and their expectations for harvest.

It was noon now.

It's time for lunch, and the yamen servant brought hot water over. Those who want to drink hot water can drink hot water.

Li Qiao also opened the test basket, ready to eat steamed buns.

After spending all morning brain cells, he was hungry.

But he didn't plan to ask for hot water, lest he need to go to the toilet.

There is nothing to cover the toilet. When going to the toilet, it has to be done under the noses of everyone. Even if he has been in the last days, he has never been so convenient in public.

In the test basket, six large steamed buns were broken into many pieces, and they seemed to have no appetite.

But Li Qiao didn't dislike it, he was never particular about food.

After a quick lunch, he resumed his poetry.

After more than half an hour, after spending most of his brain cells, he finally squeezed out a poem that was passable.

After a while, the yamen servant came over again holding the wooden board, and it was time to write the final policy topic.

This time the topic of policy is very simple, and has nothing to do with the small composition of the Holy Spirit. The topic is a sentence from "University", and I want to write an article around this sentence.

According to what His Majesty said, every sentence in the Four Books and Five Classics has been repeatedly demonstrated, and there are countless related articles. As long as candidates make a little preparation, they will definitely be able to write one.

The same is true for Li Qiao. Before reading the short composition of the Holy Master, he must first thoroughly understand the Four Books and Five Classics, so that he can respond to all changes with the same.

Therefore, this policy topic is not difficult for him.

But because the person who approved the papers was the magistrate of Jiang County, he still tried his best to rely on the direction that the people are the most valuable and the people are rich.

He first wrote a draft on straw paper, and after revising it, he copied it into the paper.

After copying, he began to check the test paper from the beginning.

After checking all the meanings of ink, scriptures, poems, and policy theory, he was relieved to confirm that there were no omissions or mistakes.

Looking up at the other candidates in the examination room, there are not a few of them who have finished their answers like him.

It is possible to hand in papers in advance for children's examinations.

However, at least 30 candidates had to hand in their test papers before the door of the test booth could be opened once.

Can you pay?

Just when Li Qiao couldn't make up his mind, someone nearby handed in the paper.

With the first person taking the lead, the rest of the people who finished answering the questions couldn't help but hand in the papers, and soon more than 20 people handed in the papers.

Seeing that Meng Yue had also handed in the test paper, Li Qiao couldn't sit still anymore. He put the pen, ink and inkstone into the examination basket, then took the test paper and straw paper and walked to Jiangzhi County.

Putting the test paper on the table in front of Jiang Zhixian, Jiang Zhixian couldn't help but glance at his paper. As the chief examiner, in order to avoid suspicion, he has never met Li Qiao since the day the decree was announced.

But he was no less concerned about Li Qiao's grades than Tao Zhu.

He always thought that Li Qiao could ascend, and maybe he would be the top one in the future. Now it was time to decide whether Li Qiao could fly, so he was naturally very concerned.

However, as the chief examiner, with so many eyes staring at him, he could only put on a businesslike attitude and pretend to glance casually.

This glance was in a hurry, he didn't have time to read the answer on Li Qiao's paper, he could only see Li Qiao's handwriting.

This word... is really not good.

Fortunately, the imperial examination does not test calligraphy!

The magistrate of Jiang was a little relieved, Li Qiao's paper was densely written, it was very good.

After handing in the papers, Li Qiao walked out of the hall and stood in the yard waiting for others to hand in the papers.

Soon, there were thirty people handing in the papers. Jiang Zhixian left the hall and opened the door of the examination shed.

Outside the gate, the examinees' companions are waiting.

Tao Zhu is also there.

However, apart from Zhuang Wen and his wife, there were Baiyou and Shen Hua beside him.

Li Qiao greeted Meng Yue, and Meng Yue went straight back to the private school with the test basket. He had an exam tomorrow, and he didn't have his family to accompany him, so he could concentrate on studying.

When Li Qiao came to Tao Zhu, he first called Brother Zhu, and then he greeted Zhuang Wen, Bai You, and Shen Hua.

Looking at his smiling face, Zhuang Wen knew that he had done well in the exam, so he said, "Let's go, let's go back, and you write down the questions and answers silently." This is the

real test.

Moreover, let's listen to Li Qiao's answer first, even if the result of the county examination is not yet out, then he and Huang Youming can make a rough estimate.

"Okay." Li Qiao also had the same intention.

Answering the questions after the exam, he has done this many times in his previous life, he feels that he did well in the exam, and answering a pair of answers will not affect his mentality tomorrow.

Seeing this, Baiyou smiled and said to Tao Zhu, "Brother Zhu, see you tomorrow."

Tao Zhu responded with a smile.

Seeing this, Li Qiao also smiled at Baiyou, as a greeting.

Baiyou immediately gave him a smile back, she seemed to have a good temper.

Back home, Li Qiao went into the study to check the answers with Zhuang Wen and Huang Youming.

As he had imagined, Zhuang Wen and Huang Youming were quite satisfied with his answers, and they took the top 30 in the county test. Judging by Li Qiao's stable answers, he would definitely pass the county test this time.

Of course, we can't take it lightly, there are still four games to come.

So, after eating the delicious pig's trotters, Zhuang Wen and his wife left, Li Qiao and Tao Zhu went back to their room to rest, and they had to get up early tomorrow.

However, Li Qiao was curious about how Tao Zhu was doing today. After he lay down on the bed, he first talked slowly about what happened in the examination room, and then asked Tao Zhu.

"After I came back, I stewed the pig's trotters. After the stew was done, I stayed at home and had nothing to do, so I went to the examination shed. It turned out that Shen Hua was the same, and he had white pomelo by his side, so I went to Wangyue Tower with the two of them. Had lunch."

"That's good, brother Zhu has his own social circle, and went to the restaurant, how do you feel?" Li Qiao asked with a smile.

At this time, he was lying on his side, with his head propped on one hand, and Tao Zhu's hand was being played with the other.

Tao Zhu's posture was the same as his. Hearing what he said, he raised his legs and pressed his whole body towards him.

Using both hands and feet, Tao Zhu wrapped him tightly.

"It's okay, it's a bit novel, but it's better to go out to the restaurant with you." Tao Zhu buried his face in Li Qiao's neck, and replied truthfully.

Today, Li Qiao's figure disappeared at the entrance of the examination shed, his heart suddenly became empty, and he was inseparable from this person all day long, and now this person went to the battlefield alone, he couldn't see him all day, he didn't know for a while do what.

Missing him enveloped him all at once, even more than the night when this man stayed at Zhuang Wen's house.

He clearly knew where this person was and what he was doing, but he just missed him so much.

Later, even if he went to Wangyue Tower for dinner with Baiyou and Shen Hua, most of his thoughts were still on this person.

After parting for a whole day, this person finally belonged to him again.

Hearing the undisguised attachment in Tao Zhu's voice, and not expecting him to answer this way, Li Qiao was stunned for a moment, and then his heart felt sour.

It's only been a day since they parted, and Tao Zhu has accumulated longing for Sanqiu.

Tao Zhu always wanted to keep up with him, so even if he couldn't take the imperial examination, Tao Zhu insisted on reading and learning.

He and Tao Zhu did almost everything together, but Tao Zhu really couldn't go to the examination room with him.

In this world, men and women can legally have sex, which is perfect, but there are also imperfections. Tao Zhu's gender is not male after all.

He lightly patted Tao Zhu's back: "Look up."

Tao Zhu immediately arched his body up and raised his head when he heard these two words, and at this moment a pair of big hands held his cheeks, and a kiss fell on his face. on his lips.

The familiar touch and the familiar smell made people incomparably addicted. It was hard to end a kiss, but just after they separated, the two of them just looked at each other, and couldn't help but kiss again.

In the end, the two of them slept hugging each other, with their hands and feet entangled.

As for the white pomelo, Li Qiao has no intention of inquiring, let's talk about it later, he just wants to hold the person in his arms and kiss hard, tenderly, and in all kinds of kisses.

The next few days were similar to this day, every day Li Qiao and Tao Zhu got up in the middle of the night, cooked, ate, and went to the examination room.

The test on the second day was Mo Yi, and the whole article was Mo Yi, the content revolved around the Four Books and Five Classics, and also involved a little bit of the Three Biography.

Li Qiao answered very smoothly.

The test on the third day was the scriptures. The content was all four books and five classics, and did not involve three histories and three biographies. Li Qiao's answer was smoother.

On the fourth day, there is a poetry test.

Li Qiao replied that life would be worse than death, and he exhausted all his brain cells to squeeze out three poems.

The moment he handed in the paper, he actually felt the joy of escaping from the sky.

Therefore, when he saw Tao Zhu outside the examination room, he couldn't help running towards Tao Zhu, he didn't want to think about anything now, he just wanted to immerse himself in Tao Zhu's gentle hometown and relax his mind!

On the fifth day, the test is about policy theory.

Only this one policy theory will be tested all day.

The title is from the short essay written by the Holy Majesty. The year before last, water bandits ran rampant in a southeast prefecture, killing people and setting fire to them, committing all sorts of crimes and causing many catastrophes.

It took a lot of effort for the government to drive them back, but they didn't completely wipe out this nest of water bandits.

The Holy Majesty wrote a small composition to denounce the water bandits.

Therefore, the policy topic on the current test paper is how to solve the water pirates.

Li Qiao took the test paper, glanced at it hastily, and then couldn't help but look in the direction of the capital.

During the Zhuang Wenyuan examination, he praised the emperor fiercely, thinking that the emperor is a good emperor, and he stopped torturing the candidates, and the policy essay questions finally became normal.

But now it's his turn, and he's starting to pick up hell again.

The imperial examination selects civil officials, civil officials, civil officials!

Suppressing bandits is the job of military officers!

Isn't it deliberately embarrassing people to present this kind of policy topic to a group of scholars!

Is this forcing all the scholars who take the imperial examination to be omnipotent?

I don't know what the Holy Majesty is thinking, but the article must be written, Li Qiao frowned and began to organize his words.

In fact, from his personal point of view, he took advantage of this kind of question.

Because his knowledge reserve far exceeds other candidates.

Not to mention the knowledge he has accumulated under the influence of his ears and eyes in modern society, but in the last days, as an eighth-level supernatural being, he would kill zombies not one by one, but in groups.

Although the zombie is not a water bandit, he still has actual combat experience.

So this policy topic is not difficult for him.

However, his identity at this time is Li Qiao of Sanliu Village, a farmer who can only see the world through books, and his policy articles cannot be too perfect.

Therefore, he kept in mind the identity of the original body, and started to organize the language based on the vision and thinking of this identity.

First write down the outline on straw paper, what preparations should be made before eliminating the water bandits, how to fight during the battle, and how to deal with the aftermath after the fight.

After writing the outline, he thought for a while, and began to fill in the details in the outline. After filling, the general framework of the article came out.

He picked up a new scrap of paper and started writing.

After considering the sentences, contacting the Four Books and Five Classics, some deletions, deletions, revisions, and revisions, it was already noon when he finished writing the draft.

He started to eat lunch, and this time he asked for a bowl of hot water.

All he had left was to polish and transcribe, which didn't take much time. After transcribing, his county examination this time would be over.

In the afternoon, before three o'clock, Li Qiao finished the work.

He raised his eyes to survey his surroundings.

Just then, a candidate handed in the test paper.

He immediately packed up his things and handed in the paper.

Looking at Li Qiao's test paper, Jiang Zhixian held back his curiosity. Soon, he will soon know what kind of level this young man he is optimistic about is.

Li Qiao left the examination room early today, and when he came out, he still saw Tao Zhu.

Tao Zhu still had Baiyou and Shen Hua by his side. In just five days, the three of them had not only become good friends, but their relationship had progressed to the point where they invited each other to their house.

Baiyou saw Li Qiao running towards him, of course, Li Qiao's target was Tao Zhu, so he smiled and said to Tao Zhu: "Brother Zhu, see you in three days, I and Hua I'm going to look for you in Sanliu Village."

"Okay, I will treat you well then."

Tao Zhu hurriedly agreed, and then immediately ran towards Li Qiao.

Baiyou looked at his figure, envy flashed in his eyes.

Before he met Tao Zhu, he thought Tao Zhu was an extremely handsome little brother, so he couldn't see other people in the eyes of Li Qiao Gu.

Therefore, when he saw Li Qiao and Tao Zhu for the first time, he was a little surprised.

But through these few days of contact, he understands why Li Qiao likes Tao Zhu so much. Although Tao Zhu's appearance is different from ordinary little brothers, he has a very calm and comfortable temperament, which makes people like to be with him. stay together.

Moreover, Tao Zhu, who seems easy to get along with, has his own principles and opinions, and will not compromise.

This kind of temperament and temperament is really unique among the younger brothers.

Besides, after these few days, he felt that Tao Zhu's face became more and more pleasing to the eye.

No wonder Li Qiao was able to make Gu like this, holding hands at the entrance of the examination shed.

I hope that the Li Dazhong he chose this time is a good man.

Li Qiao took Tao Zhu home quickly, and after returning home, he checked the answers with Huang Youming and Zhuang Wen, and he was completely liberated.

After working hard for so long, he can relax a little for a few days.

Zhuang Wen and Huang Youming were amazed and admired by Li Qiao's essay on policy. At Li Qiao's age, they were really ashamed to be able to write such a complete article.

A lot of age is really living on a dog, no wonder it was so late to be admitted to the scholar!

Li Qiao was affirmed by Zhuang Wen and Huang Youming, and he was relieved. Judging by their reactions, his article did not cross the line.

He was relieved, and returned to Sanliu Village early the next morning.

The exam results will be announced after fifteen days, and he can relax for fifteen days.

When he returned to the village, he naturally became the focus. Every time he met a villager, he would ask him how he did in the exam.

His answer is only one: try your best, and leave the rest to God.

After hearing this answer, the villagers prayed to God to bless him. Li Qiao is the hope of the whole village, and he must live!

Back home, the day has passed.

Li Qiao didn't need to study, but wanted to work. Li Dashan, Li Shu, and Li Chuntao were all making snacks, so he went into the kitchen to help.

But none of these people wanted to let him take a good rest.

Tao Zhu also had the same attitude. He fed soup, water, fish and meat all day long, but Li Qiao never saw any growth, and even lost a little weight in the past few days.

This shows that Li Qiao has been consuming mental energy.

Now that the exam is finally over, you must take a good rest to make up for the lost mind.

For Tao Zhu's remarks, Li Qiao couldn't laugh or cry. He has maintained a good weight and hasn't lost weight.

But Tao Zhu insisted on losing weight, so he should.

But it is impossible to really rest.

There are a lot of things at home.

Before, he used the county examination as an excuse to reject all invitations from others. Now that the county examination is over, he has to prepare to return the gift.

Moreover, he also wants to buy land.

Now his family only has tens of acres of land, which is too little. His goal is to become a landlord, and he has to buy another 200 acres to become a landlord.

Of course, there is also white pomelo.

He didn't want Li Dazhong to have a bad marriage again.

Therefore, the day before Baiyou came to be a guest, Li Qiao asked Tao Zhu about his impression of Baiyou while looking at the various gifts sent by everyone in the warehouse.

Tao Zhu was hugging a piece of silk at this time and looked it up, and replied after hearing the words: "He is a kind person, not very talkative."

He said he patted the piece of silk in his arms: "It is very soft to the touch. How about making a robe?"

"Haven't you already made two new clothes?" Li Qiao didn't want him to be tired.

"Two sets are too few. You can only wear two sets in rotation when you go out to meet guests. At least ten sets are enough for you."

Tao Zhu asked Baiyou about the ostentation of wealthy families in the past few days. As far as my net worth is concerned, ten sets are still less.

"We can make a few more sets, but let others do it."

Li Qiao put down the booklet in his hand, walked to him and put the materials in his arms back to the original place, then raised his hand and tapped on his eyelids: " Doing needlework hurts your eyes, if your eyes are burnt out, you won't be able to see my face clearly."

Tao Zhu: "..."

He couldn't help laughing, and swallowed back the retort that was on his lips.

After staring at Li Qiao's face for a few seconds, he stood on tiptoe and leaned over to kiss his cheek. He couldn't fail to see such a pretty face.

He has to watch it every day, all the time.

Seeing this, Li Qiao naturally went back to kiss. The two kissed each other, and then went back to the backyard holding hands. The skin hunger and thirst that I had during the exam days has not healed yet.

In the past, when the two of them wanted to go back to the house to do something, they would deliberately find an excuse. At that time, only Li Dashan was there, and Li Dashan couldn't understand their words that there was no money in this place.

But now there is an extra Li Shu who can understand, but they don't want to make excuses at all.

Anyway, everyone knows that the two of them have a good relationship, they often hold hands in broad daylight, and now they can relax after the exam, which makes perfect sense.

The next day, Bai You and Shen Hua came.

Li Qiao called Li Dazhong over.

Li Dazhong was obviously a little uncomfortable in front of Baiyou, scratching his hair for a while, rubbing his hands for a while, but he didn't dare to look at Baiyou.

He is a country guy, facing a sweet husband raised by the government like Baiyou, he doesn't know what to do other than obey Baiyou's orders.

Baiyou was laughing all the time, and he looked very soft-tempered. He visited Li Qiao's house, and praised and praised the big courtyard they entered.

He asked Tao Zhu how much money it would cost to build this yard, and he wanted to build such a yard too.

Li Dazhong stood aside without saying a word. His family was poor, and he planned to use all the money in the family as a bride price, so he really didn't have the money for this house.

Since Baiyou makes money, it is natural that Baiyou can cover whatever he likes.

After Bai You and Shen Hua came to visit, Li Qiao took Tao Zhu to visit Bai's and Shen's houses. While he was busy socializing, Jiang Zhixian's heart on the other side finally fell back into his stomach.

The county examination papers were all reviewed by the county magistrate alone, but even for the county examination, all the papers were copied by a special person, so he couldn't see Li Qiao's uncharacteristic handwriting with no merits.

However, he could see Li Qiao's writing style.

This is really easy to recognize, besides Li Qiao, who else can write an article that can help the local government make money?

The author has something to say:

The imperial examination process in this world is made up by me, and it does not match the official history. Have fun watching it, don't take it seriously~
