Li Jin nodded: "Exactly, dare to ask your name?"

Although the man's tone was a bit aggressive, he could tell from his manner that he was quite cultivated.

"My name is Zou Xiujie."

This person was brought by Xu Zifan, and he quickly introduced Li Jin: "Xiujie has just passed sixteen this year and is the second place in the county test."

Li Jin smiled and said, "You are young and promising."

Zou Xiujie was praised by Li Jin, with a little shame in the pride on her face, saying, "You too."

The expression on Li Jin's face remained unchanged, and he thought, these days, the gentleman generally doesn't praise the students, one is for his majesty, and the other is to avoid their pride.

So... the kids can't help boasting, they will treat you as a friend.

Xu Zifan looked at Zou Xiujie's expression and felt that he really... had nothing to say.

At the very beginning, this young master found him and said that he would come to protect each other, but Xu Zifan didn't dare to refuse because he had a relationship with the owner of the tea garden.

But Xu Zifan could also think that this young master gave up the carriage instead of riding and came to rent an ox cart for Li Jin?

Zou Xiujie has been known as a child prodigy since he was a child. He originally had to take the county test at the age of thirteen, but his husband hoped that he would study for a few more years, and then he would come back after taking the test of'Little Sanyuan' in one fell swoop. This is also a good story.

But I didn't expect that his reputation was not better than that of Li Jin, and he became the second place appointed by the county grandfather.

Xu Zifan originally thought that if this young master finds fault, he would have to help Li Jin.

But I didn't expect that Li Jin only said four words "young and promising", this young master was directly shy?And it seems to be close to Li Jin a lot, even closer than to him.

After the group signed up, Li Jin went to the college to find Chen Xiran.

However, the management of the college is strict, and students who are not in the college are not allowed to enter. Li Jin can only ask the concierge to bring a message.

But Chen Xiran didn't come out in the following day, and Li Jin could only follow everyone back to the town.

Although he feels a little sorry about this, the city is already big, and it is normal for two people not to meet each other.

It is worth mentioning that math books in the bookstore here also account for a large proportion, and Li Jin bought two more books.

The kid Zou Xiujie came over and said, "I have them all at home."

Even Xu Zifan was helpless with this kid's temper.

After returning home, Li Jin practiced policy theory. Before the county examination, he seldom touched on this aspect, but as a government examination for screening children, policy theory was needed to let the prefect know whether the person had reasonable political opinions.

After all, most people take imperial examinations for the sake of becoming officials, and of course this must be selected step by step.

The night before Li Jin was going to the mansion to test, Qin Muwen was holding a small bun to feed rice cereal, and after feeding he had to hold him back and forth, otherwise the little guy wouldn't follow it.

Just when Li Jin came back from the bath, Xiao Baozi saw him and opened his hands towards him.

"Dia!"

Li Jin took him in his arms, was sluggish for a second, and said to him: "Li Ruo, call again."

"Oh!"

"Not this sentence."

"Hey!"

"Yes, keep calling."

The little bun was tired: "Eh!" Then he began to pull Li Jin's hair.

Qin Muwen was also very shocked. He had taught Xiao Baozi for so long to "call Daddy".

He was still quite disappointed, thinking that he would have to wait for A Jin to come back before he could hear Xiao Baozi called Daddy.

Although there is not much difference between calling early and calling late, it is a good deal to let Li Jin hear the little bun called daddy in advance!

Before leaving in the morning, Li Jin kissed the little bun and asked him to make another call.

The little bun likes his father and father, his father has no beard or pierced, so he screams in face: "Ah!"

Li Jin said: "Daddy will make money to buy you new clothes after passing the exam."

His family life is so simple, each person only has one robe a year, one jacket and two sets of profanity.

Chen Xiran doesn't care much about his appearance. Li Jin has been classmates with him for so long, and he hasn't seen how he likes to change into new clothes.

But Zou Xiujie, who went to the government office to sign up last time, had to change a set of clothes every day when riding in the ox cart.Everything in his cage is clothes.

Li Jin felt that this was troublesome, but it was really good.Coupled with the beauty of the youth, every day a set of clothes still makes people feel new bright spots.

Li Jin thought, his family Li Ruo looks good, and he can dress like this in the future.

Li Jin went to the town first, and Zou Xiujie was already eating a meat bun.

He saw Li Jin and gave him one from the oil paper bag: "This time I go to Fucheng to take a carriage. My family’s carriage is big."

When everyone was there, Li Jin found out that Zou Xiujie's family was not only big with carriages, but the coachmen were also very disciplined. He would salute them first.

In addition, there are two little book boys waiting on the sidelines.

After arriving in Fucheng, the inn was booked in advance, and the young master said: "If you are willing to give money, you can discuss the money with the book boy. I don't care about this."

Everyone knows that it is not good to be favored by others, and Zou Xiujie is also very outspoken.

Li Jin packs up his bags relatively quickly, and gives the book boy one tael of silver and 400 yuan at the market price.

The book boy gave him a receipt post, and the money was cleared.

There were a total of three examinations in the government test. When Li Jin saw Chen Xiran again, it was still during the early morning roll call.

But no noise is allowed here, and the two can only look ahead.

Li Jin called out soon and went to search and enter the arena.

Before Li Jin felt that the county examination was already very strict. The officer who checked him was touching his body with his hand at that time, and he touched every inch without any entrainment.

But he tried a body search, and he took it off so that only the obscene trousers were left. The shirtless trousers were checked, even the obscene trousers had to be opened to see.

After he checked and put on his clothes, he found that the steamed buns in the bamboo basket were broken and broken.

But after thinking about it, strictness also has its advantages.This is also to ensure fairness.

Li Jin estimated that there would be about 300 or 400 candidates in the prefectural exam. This was because some counties only passed less than 20 candidates.The rate of screening people is also amazing.

The types of questions in the prefectural examination are fixed, unlike the last section of the prefectural examination, where the magistrate can make free propositions.

The contents of the three official tests are nothing more than sub-texts, miscellaneous theories, and policy theories. It is only possible to add a poem or arithmetic question at the end of each test. It will not be too difficult.

Because of this, the government test is more formal. All candidates answer the papers in a unified shed, which is divided into two sheds.

The book case and the bench are in a uniform format, with long book cases and benches.Set up a seat every two feet (sixty-six centimeters). This distance is difficult to see if you want to see the answer sheet of the person next to you, but if you are very fat, you are prone to collision.

In addition, there is a black crock under each bookcase, which exudes... the smell of urine for years.

Before the county test, because the examination room was located in the county government, there were many candidates, and the county official directly did not allow candidates to go to the toilet for the convenience of management.

But the government examination is much more formal and more humane.This crock is for the test takers to use.

The translation is to relieve it in public.

But there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Everyone is a man, and was stunned when checking the entrainment.

The subsequent examination process is not much different from the county examination, but the taste is really unbearable.

Li Jin had always used "Don't go to the toilet in the middle of the exam" to ask himself, so he didn't drink too much water in the morning, and he controlled himself to eat less the night before.

But not everyone can do this.

Not long after the exam, Li Jin heard that someone around him couldn't help it, so he made a brief comment.

He paused, trying to prevent himself from listening to any voices from the outside world, only answering the paper seriously.After being self-hypnotized for a while, it was somewhat effective.

He only drank hot soup at noon. With this taste, he couldn't make steamed buns to eat.

An arithmetic question was added after the first exam, which happened to be Li Jin's long term. He still had a lot of time to check after he finished writing.

Like Li Jin, many people couldn't accept the taste in the examination room, and didn't eat much at noon.

In the evening, he began to feast, Li Jin controlled that he did not eat too much at night. If he wants to go to the toilet for an exam tomorrow, he has to go to the toilet behind the greenhouse.

However, as a rule of the government, if you go to the toilet in the middle of the exam, a black stamp will be put on the test paper.

It was called a'shit poke' by the candidates.

It is said that there is this stamp. No matter how well the article is written, the reviewer will not read the answer sheet carefully. It is impossible to be a talented person if he misses the hospital exam.

The examiners hated the black stamp, and the candidates naturally did not want to stamp it.

But those who ate too much the night before, couldn't help it the next day and could only go to Mao Keng with tears, and at the same time stamped the answer sheet.

Li Jin ate too little yesterday, so he couldn't just drink soup at noon today. He soaked the steamed buns in the soup, then held his breath and drank it in three mouthfuls.

Enduring his stomach upset, he still wrote his own draft on plain paper.

The young master Zou Xiujie had been advised by her husband before, such as "Don't eat too much at night" and have to eat something at noon to endure the smell, "Don't hold back when you want a large size."

After Li Jin came out, he saw the young master holding on to the tree and gagging.

But it's getting dark now, and it's been a long time since I drank soup at noon, and I can't vomit anything.

Zou Xiujie saw Li Jin, walked up to him, gritted his teeth: "I only saw you eat the pao mantou!"

Li Jin laughed and said, "I am too hungry. When you drink soup tomorrow, remember to hold your breath for a while and take a sip for a while."

Zou Xiujie glanced at the examination room with a look of disgust: "I see, let's go back and take a bath first."

In the third game, Li Jin had practiced for a long time before. Although it was not a topic he was familiar with, his political remarks were mostly similar.

Considering that the prefects and magistrates admired the application of arithmetic, Li Jin's main idea was to move toward the industrial rejuvenation of the country.

If you can do what you like, it is naturally possible to compete for the top spot in the case.

Although Li Jin was calm, he was not indifferent to the point of wantlessness. He hadn't earnestly made money these days because of these exams.

Therefore, he still wants to fight for the position of the head of the case.

In fact, the policy theory is somewhat similar to the policy of governing the country in the'Ideological and Moral' Ma Yuan and Mao's that Li Jin has learned in his life.

Li Jin specially selected the industry to express his thoughts. In addition, he was a farmer and had a good understanding of prices, so his writing was justified.

There is nothing fake, but it is the same style as his last idyllic poem.

Li Jin finished all the drafts. It was past noon. He had eaten, resisting the discomfort of the air, and checked again.

Today is the last exam, and you can be relieved after half a day.

Just when Li Jin finished checking and was about to copy it on the answer sheet.Suddenly smelled a stench.

The thing he worries the most is that it happened—someone just didn’t stamp the stamp and went on the spot...!
