After being forced to raise a tyrannical prince, I was stalked insane

Chapter 352 Announcement of Relationship
Cheng Yue's day was almost always erratic.

Even the news of a good potato harvest was no longer enough to attract his attention! !

His mind is now full of what Luo Qingqing just told him: "If you are sure that there is nothing wrong with it, it happens that my family is also here, and we will announce the relationship when we have dinner."

Cheng Yue wished he could finish his meal now!
Because of this incident, when he was giving lectures to Luo Ning in the afternoon, he was a little absent-minded.

I always feel that there is only one hour left before I can have dinner.

Why is it so long?

"Sir?" Luo Ning called Cheng Yue several times, but without getting a response from the other party, he couldn't help but shouted a little louder: "Mr. Qin!"

"Ah? What's the matter?" Cheng Yue came back to his senses, and looked at him in confusion.

Luo Ning looked at the person with strange eyes: "You told me just now that you want to explain the meaning of this passage, and you also said that this is a regular exam. Except for the occasional few times when there are no questions, it can basically be regarded as a compulsory exam."

He said: "But you have been in a daze for a while just now... Are you still teaching this class?"

"Ah, I'm talking about it." Cheng Yue said with some embarrassment: "I'm sorry, I just thought of something, so I was a little distracted. Let's continue..."

He quickly picked up his mood and regained his form.

But in the end, Luo Ning was not as strict as before.

"...This is probably the meaning here. Is there anything else you don't understand?" After he finished explaining, he asked patiently.

Luo Ning shook his head: "Mr. explained it very carefully, and I understand everything."

Cheng Yue hummed: "Now that we understand, let's talk about the types of questions that may appear in this place."

"The first type of question is interpretation, which can basically be said to be a sub-question, and often the proportion of scores is relatively high."

Cheng Yue said: "As long as you memorize the explanation thoroughly, you will basically pass this question, but if you want to get full marks, you still need to have some opinions of your own, but even if you don't have it, it won't affect too much, at most it will be one or two points difference."

Luo Ning nodded: "I remember everything, sir."

"Then tell me in your own words, the meaning I explained to you just now." Cheng Yue said.

Luo Ning thought about it for a while, but the answer was pretty good.

"Not bad." Cheng Yue nodded and said, "Then let's talk about the second type of question."

He said: "This second type of question is actually not much different from the first type. It's just that the form of answering is just the opposite of the first type of question... The first type of question is to give you the original text for you to explain, and the second type The second is to give you an explanation and ask you to answer the original text, but he will not give you the explanation directly. He will first tell you some words that are completely irrelevant to this, and then mix some keywords in it. You need to extract effective information from these keywords, and then determine which part he is asking about.”

"Then is this question difficult?" Luo Ning asked not confidently.

Cheng Yuedao: "This question is not difficult to say it is difficult, and it is not easy to say it is simple. The main thing is whether you can find the key words. Generally speaking, in addition to the real key words in the question, there will be two or three words that confuse people's eyes. If you find the wrong keywords, the question is basically wrong, and if you find the right ones, you will get points for nothing.”

Luo Ning obviously didn't have much confidence in this form of question.

In the past, even if he took an exam, it was just a test of dictation...

He had never seen such a question before.

I don't know how to find the kind of keywords that Mr. said.

"You don't have to worry about this. I will give you more questions of the same type later on. If you do more questions, you will naturally find your skills."

Cheng Yuedao: "Basically, there are no other shortcuts for this type of questions. We can only keep brushing the questions, memorizing relevant keywords and articles corresponding to keywords."

Luo Ning became even more nervous in an instant.

His reading volume is really too little...

In case the question is asked, it is something he has never learned before...

"You don't have to worry too much. There is a certain range for this type of question. If you are taking the Jinshi examination, there may be some unreasonable questions. It's all within a fixed range, and it won't be difficult."

Cheng Yue didn't comfort him, but told the truth: "Although your foundation is relatively weak, if you take the Tongsheng Examination, as long as you work a little harder recently, you can basically make up for it. You will have a lot of time to continue to accumulate your foundation, and you don’t have to worry too much, just do more questions and read more.”

"Yes!" Luo Ning replied solemnly: "I have written it all down!"

Cheng Yue hummed, and continued to talk to him about other types of questions.

"...these questions are not very likely to appear, but you can't miss a few exercises. If they come up, you won't panic. These are questions that are relatively easy to score. After you practice more, if you really If you come up with such a question, you can directly open a big gap with others, and it is not impossible to directly surpass Tongsheng and get the fame of a scholar."

Every year, No. 1 in the Tongsheng Examination may be selected as a scholar and go directly to the Juren Examination.

In Dajing's imperial examination system, fame is not entirely lifelong.

Those who have obtained the qualification of Tongsheng, if they fail to pass the examination within three years, they have to take the Tongsheng examination again.

For those who have obtained the qualification of scholar, if they fail to pass the Juren examination in five years, then the status of scholar will be retained for another two years, and the status of scholar will be canceled directly in the third year.

That is a total of eight years.

However, although the status of a scholar is retained for an additional two years, it is not possible to directly pass the exam for Juren during these two years. Only after re-examination of a scholar can one go for the exam again.

These two years are just to ensure that students have enough food and housing during the re-examination period.

The time for juren is slightly longer, you can keep it for ten years, and after ten years, even if you don't pass the Jinshi exam, you can directly retake the exam, and it's a separate exam...

If you can get the job of an official, even if it is just a small yamen official, you can extend the status of juren indefinitely.

Because Juren who has been assigned a job only needs to take the written test or interview held by the Yamen once every three years, and if he passes three consecutive times, he will be able to retain his status as a Juren for life.

There is still plenty of room to maneuver.

If you pass the Jinshi exam, you can sit back and relax, unless your ranking is particularly poor, in the bottom 20, you have to retake the exam [-] years later.

However, after 20 years, most people have reached the age of service...that is, retirement.

Retirement is no longer required.

But the benefits of Jinshi status remain unchanged, which is equivalent to retirement subsidies!

As for those who were admitted to Jinshi at a young age, those who have not retired after 20 years... Most of the rankings are not too low. With very few exceptions, most of them are from wealthy families.

If there are any exceptions...

Then there is no other way.

What's interesting is that when the Jinshi period expires, you have to retake the examination as a scholar.

After Luo Qingqing knew about Dajing's specific imperial examination system, she was quite surprised.

Because there are quite a lot of concepts in it, a bit like some corporate benefits in later generations...

Such as retirement pension, regular annual inspection.

Of course, in most dynasties, these educated people are given preferential treatment. Various welfare subsidies can fully satisfy one person, and the whole family can follow suit.

It is still the people at the bottom who are really suffering.

How about the sigh of "prosperity, the people suffer; death, the people suffer"!
"It's time to eat!" Luo Qingqing shouted at the kitchen door.

The Luo family immediately moved the table, and those who picked up the bowls and chopsticks picked up the bowls and chopsticks. Even Luo Ning went out to help serve the dishes after talking to Cheng Yue.

On the contrary, Cheng Yue, who had been looking forward to dinner, was now scared and dared not move.

"Sir, don't you want to eat?" Luo Ning was sent to call someone, seeing Cheng Yue's blank expression, asked strangely.

Cheng Yue said "ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

Luo Ning looked at the person strangely, but didn't say much, just said: "Then I'll get you the bowls and chopsticks, my sister cooked a lot of dishes today! There are spicy chicken and boiled fish! My first It’s the first time I’ve smelled such a delicious fish after making it!”

People on their side eat a lot of fish, but although there are also various condiments to remove the fishy smell, the real effect they can play is slightly worse.

"Okay." Cheng Yueqiang smiled, trying his best not to look embarrassed.

Obviously he is also a person who has seen many big scenes...

But he was full of unconfidence about meeting the Luo family.

Will the Luo family agree that Luo Qingqing is with him?If he disagrees, what should he do to convince the Luo family to agree...

Cheng Yue's heart was in a mess, and he dawdled for a while before he finally mustered up the courage to go out.

Luo Qingqing didn't see Cheng Yue's person for a long time, and was about to come over to call for someone, when she met him head-on, she almost bumped into her arms.

"I also said why didn't you go out to eat, I was about to come over and call you." Luo Qingqing was slightly startled, and soon returned to normal.

Cheng Yue said embarrassingly: "I was thinking about something just now, so I was delayed."

He slightly apologized: "I didn't delay everyone from having dinner, did I?"

"No." Luo Qingqing smiled: "There are a few dishes that haven't been stewed yet, and it will probably take another quarter of an hour."

She said: "Today's dinner is quite rich. I also specially cut a lot of meat and made a small clay oven. I can cook barbecue in the clay oven later. If you don't want to eat barbecue, there are many dishes."

"I just heard Luo Ning say..." After Cheng Yue said this, he couldn't help feeling a little regretful in his heart.

What did he say that for?
Wouldn't it interrupt a good topic?
"Why did you think of cooking so many dishes tonight?" Cheng Yue asked out of words, even a little bit of anticipation faintly rising in his heart.

Could it be because of him?

Because the relationship between them will be announced at dinner tonight.

That's why I specially prepared such a sumptuous dinner.

Cheng Yue thought: Qingqing usually looks carefree, doesn't pay much attention to romance, and seldom pays attention to details.

People can't feel her love at all... But in fact, her love is hidden in these small details that are hard to find.

Cheng Yuezheng was moved by himself, when he heard Luo Qingqing say indifferently: "Oh, isn't this the first potato planter in the village to have a good harvest? They don't know what they think, they insist on going to the market to buy half a piece of pork as a gift Come here... I also specially ordered a sheep, slaughtered it now, and sent it all to me, as well as a few live fish and slaughtered chickens..."

She sighed: "You said that in this season, what things can be kept? It's so hot, things will go bad overnight, so I can only deal with these things as soon as possible. I will eat more fresh ones when I have time, I marinated all the rest, and I chopped some of them into dumpling fillings. I will wrap them all into dumplings later, and put them in the refrigerator to freeze."

Cheng Yue: ...

It was as if something was broken all of a sudden.

"Yuan, so that's the case." He rubbed his nose and smiled awkwardly.

Luo Qingqing suddenly moved closer to him: "Otherwise what do you think?"

"No, it's nothing, I, I didn't think anything." Cheng Yue felt extremely embarrassed now: "Really... I didn't think anything."

"Actually, the people in the village sent so much meat. It's difficult to deal with it. The more important aspect is that I think I will tell my family about our relationship later. I think it should be more grand."

Luo Qingqing said suddenly.

Cheng Yue was slightly stunned, and then his eyes were full of surprise: "Really?"

He breathed a sigh of relief: "I just thought..."

"What do you think? Didn't you just say that you didn't think anything?" Luo Qingqing said suddenly.

Cheng Yue couldn't speak for a while, his face flushed red: "I, I..."

After a while, under Luo Qingqing's playful eyes, he said what he had been keeping in his heart just now.

"I thought that I was not important to you at all, so you didn't even want to perfuse me." He said, feeling a little bit more self-loathing.

Luo Qingqing smiled and said: "If the people in the village didn't send so much meat, I would probably ask my third brother to go to the town and buy more vegetables and meat. It can't be said to be rich, at least four dishes and one soup are still good. There must be."

"Your words sound like a lie." Cheng Yue said: "I still have this self-knowledge. You might as well not perfunctory me..."

He said, even more lost.

Suddenly his mouth softened, his eyes widened instantly, and he was pushed to the door frame behind him.

After a while, he heard Luo Qingqing's voice again: "Then how can I tell you to believe it?"

Cheng Yue was in a daze, feeling like he couldn't turn his head anymore.

"I, I, I believe it..." he whispered.

Luo Qingqing smiled and was about to say something when she was interrupted by the sudden sound of broken porcelain.

After the two were shocked, they turned their heads at the same time, and looked at the person not far away, who had been staring at them for an unknown amount of time...
