After marrying a rough man, I played mahjong to support Shoufu

Chapter 122
Qingxi Academy.

In front of the academy gate, Zhao Shun was carrying a burden on his body, looking as if he was about to go out.

Jiang Huan stood in front of the door, looking at him with a relaxed expression, "You are going to the county seat to take part in the county exam. It's nothing more than a small test. As a teacher, there is nothing to tell you. Just perform normally."

"Yes, sir."

Zhao Shun looked serious, without showing any signs of negligence.

The county examination is the first step in the imperial examination. After passing the examination, you will be a child student. The difficulty is average. As long as you are familiar with a subset of classics and history, most people can pass. Most of the participants are teenagers in their twelfth and thirteen years.

Although Zhao Shun started late, he was carefully taught by Zhao Taifu before he lost his memory, and he has a wealth of knowledge. Coupled with Jiang Huan's painstaking explanation of enlightenment, Zhao Shun's knowledge has advanced by leaps and bounds, which is by no means comparable to ordinary scholars.

The place to participate in the township examination is in the county seat, and the examination is held by the Gong Yuan in the county seat. The trip is not too far away, and for Zhao Shun, it is like going home.

In less than half an hour, Zhao Shun entered the county town and arrived at the Gong Yuan.

In front of the gate of the Tribute Academy, there were around twenty examinees gathered, most of them were around ten years old, they were not tall, and looked childish.

And Zhao Shun was an adult, with a strong body and a tall stature. He stood out from the crowd when he stood inside. If he was wearing a Confucian robe, the examinees would think he was not here for the exam.

"This man is so old and hasn't passed the provincial examination, so he is really shameless."

"That's right, if I were in his grade, I wouldn't come to the township examination, shame on me."

The teenagers didn't know where they got so much vanity, Zhao Shun's ears twitched, he didn't bother to argue with them, he just closed his eyes and rested his mind, waiting for the exam to start.

After a while, there was a sound of brisk footsteps from behind, and then a hand rested on Zhao Shun's shoulder.

"Brother..."

Zhao Shun's eyes froze, and he fell over his shoulder and knocked down the person behind him. This was the vigilance he had cultivated from hunting all day long, and he couldn't help it.

"hiss--"

The scholar in the Confucian robe fell to the ground, gasping for air in pain.

Zhao Shun finally realized at this moment that he had overreacted, and quickly helped him up.

"I'm sorry, I have been hunting all year round, and I have developed a habit."

The examinees who pointed out Zhao Shun just now showed disgust when they heard that he was a hunter.

"It turns out that he is a poor hunter, and he is also worthy of reading sage books. Let's go, let's stay away from him!"

Hearing their voices, Zhao Shun cast a cold sideways glance. In his opinion, these snobs really read a collection of scriptures and history in vain. Even if they become Juren in the future, they are also moths to the country.

On the other hand, the person who had just been knocked down by Zhao Shun rubbed his lower back indifferently, and said openly: "It's okay, I was rude first, and I will apologize to my brother."

Seeing that the other party was so polite, Zhao Shun couldn't help giving him a high look.

This scholar was a warm person, and he took the initiative to chat with Zhao Shun. In just a few words, Zhao Shun knew his background.

This person's name is Yan Chongluan, he is the eldest son of Yan's Chamber of Commerce in Yuhua Prefecture, his face is like white jade, and he can be regarded as a good-looking talent.

He is about the same age as Zhao Shun, and he is also an older person in the rural examination.

Hearing that he was from Yuhua Prefecture, Zhao Shun couldn't help frowning, "Since you are from Yuhua Prefecture, why did you go to Changle County to take the provincial examination? It stands to reason that Yuhua Prefecture should also be able to take the examination."

Yan Chongluan laughed and said, "I'm not afraid of your brother's jokes. I have money in my family and I usually have leisure. What I like to do most is eating, drinking and playing with women. I don't like studying and taking exams the least."

Speaking of which, Yan Chongluan sighed helplessly: "But ever since my father heard the phrase 'the former swallow of Wang Xietang flew into the homes of ordinary people', he insisted on letting me take the exam to become an official, even though I kept procrastinating After all, I was kicked out of the exam."

Zhao Shun thought for a while, and felt that what he had said meant he hadn't said anything, "But what does this have to do with you looking far away?"

Yan Chongluan let out a 'bad' sound, "Brother, I, Yan, can be considered a well-known son in Yuhua Prefecture. I am afraid of being laughed at when I participate in the township examination at this age, so I just..."

Zhao Shun suddenly nodded, no wonder this person took the initiative to talk to him, it turned out that he came to report to the group to keep warm.

"A real man walks between heaven and earth, but he asks you to have a clear conscience. Others' comments are useless."

Zhao Shun didn't care about these worldly eyes at all, he only cared about the person hiding inside.

Yan Chongluan cupped his hands with a smile and said, "Brother lives freely and freely, I admire you."

Regarding Zhao Shun's statement, Yan Chongluan did not refute. After all, each has its own way of life. Their family has a great career, and the most important thing is face.

"The exam has begun, all students, please enter!"

The gate of the Tribute Court finally opened slowly, and the chief examiner checked the candidates for cheating tools in turn, and then arranged them into their respective examination compartments.

After pointing out the content of the test site, the examiner buckled the hourglass and waited quietly for the candidates to answer.

……

Yongle Village.

It was rare for Xu Wanqing to be at home, so she invited Mrs. Sanwu and held a tea party.

Although Xu Wanqing is just an upright woman in the same village, she is good at making friends. She knows all the village chiefs' families and concubines, and they gather together to form contacts.

Mrs. Liu from Qingshui Village next door is over forty years old and has a fat body. She wears large jade rings and rough jade bracelets on her fingers.

"Sister Xu, you haven't walked around with your sisters for a long time, what kind of wind is blowing today, calling us all here?"

Xu Wanqing chuckled lightly and said, "Sister Liu, other people don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, but I'm different. I think of you immediately when something good happens."

"Good thing? What good thing?" Mrs. Li from Hexi Village asked hurriedly.

Xu Wanqing looked sideways at her Lan Fang, "Miss Shen, don't hide it, show the good things to all the ladies."

Shen Xian had been waiting in the room for a long time, now when he heard Xu Wanqing's shout, he came out with a tray.

After Xu Wanqing's instruction on the packaging, Shen Xian poured the perfume into a delicate glass bottle, and the soap was also decorated and carved with patterns.

His eyes swept over the noble ladies wearing gold belts and silver, and there were stars in Shen Xian's eyes. These are all taken advantage of... Oh no, they are all money bags!

"Ladies and gentlemen, please take a look. This is my carefully developed perfume and soap. The soap can be used for bathing, and the fragrance lasts on the skin for a long time. But this perfume is similar to face powder."

Shen Xian explained briefly, and Madam Liu, who was dressed the most luxuriously, showed a look of disdain, and she sneered and said: "This is not a good thing, the soap sounds fresh, but this perfume can be as good as the powder in the capital ?"

As she said that, Mrs. Liu took out a bottle of face powder, and when she opened it, there was a scent of jasmine, but the scent was not too strong, and it needed to be very close to smell it.
