Chapter 974 It’s such a shame for the time traveler!

"Oh, our brother is so awesome, look at how strong those chubby little hands are~"

In the Shou'an Hall where the old lady of the Sheng family lives, the master Sheng Hong happily carries his grandson back and forth. In the blink of an eye, the child has been born for more than three months.

After it is fully grown, it is chubby, and has a very good personality. It can be hugged by almost anyone, but it is not only holding my grandpa's mustache and giggling there all the time.

Hua Lan, who was chatting with her grandmother, had lost her youthfulness and became more beautiful. Seeing this, she quickly got up and went over, reaching out and patting her son's butt.

He coaxed softly: "Brother Shi, be good, let's loosen grandpa's beard~"

"Wow wow wow!"

"Hua'er, it's okay, I'm just a kid~"

How could a child know so much? The more you spoke, the harder he pressed. Sheng Hong grimaced in pain, but he was still not angry.

As the saying goes, the relationship between generations is different, but the grandson of the eldest daughter is different. Lao Sheng rarely hugged his son even when he was a child, but since he saw his grandson, he couldn't bear to let go of him in his arms.

Mrs. Wang on the side looked at her with eyes wide open, and said impatiently: "My lord, give me a hug for Brother Shi~"

"Be careful~" Sheng Hong handed it over with some reluctance...

At this time last year, the Sheng family had just moved to Bianjing City, and some unpleasant things happened. Maybe this time, because they had long memories, or they didn't dare to be an eyesore in front of the old lady, Lin Xiaoniang did not appear in the Shou'an Hall.

While Sheng Hong and Mrs. Wang were fighting to hold the child, Yuan Wenshao was also chatting with his brother-in-law. Of course, he was talking about Sheng Changbai, who had nothing in common with Chang Feng.

It is said that this young man is growing up quickly. The fifteen-year-old Changbai is now a handsome young man, but his personality has become more stable, and he has a certain rules for speaking and doing things in a leisurely manner.

Previously, I heard my wife secretly complain that this younger brother looked like my grandfather, Mrs. Wang, so much so that Lao Sheng was a little afraid of him.

"Zicheng, are you going to end this year?"

"Well, after celebrating the Dragon Boat Festival in a few days, I will take a boat back to my hometown Youyang to prepare~"

"Then I wish you success in one fell swoop. I will be waiting for your good news with generous gifts!"

"Brother-in-law was joking. My father wanted me to experience the feeling of the examination room. This time, the emphasis is on participation~"

"You are too humble, Zicheng. You were selected as a scholar three years ago at the age of 12. It is definitely not a problem in a mere provincial examination!"

The two of them chatted about each other. Changbai had been studying hard these years, but his hard work was about to pay off. Even if he failed this time, he would be sure to win next time with experience.

The imperial examination system of this dynasty was basically inherited from the previous dynasty, but some reforms were made after Taizong succeeded to the throne. The imperial examination system was mainly divided into four levels, namely the "yuan examination", "rural examination", "convention examination" and "palace examination". Admission is determined based on grades.

The academic examination is held in the state capital, and high school students are awarded the title of scholar. Of course, before this, scholars must pass the county examination hosted by the county magistrate to obtain the status of a child, and then they are eligible to participate in the formal imperial examination.

The rural examination is usually held in various schools. The examination content includes four items: classics and meanings, current affairs, fu and poetry. It is held in August every year, so it is usually called "Autumn Boudoir". Once you are in high school, you will be selected.

The National Examination, also known as the Provincial Examination, is named after taking the examination of Shangshu Province. It is presided over by the Ministry of Rites and is a nationwide unified examination.

Those who passed the provincial examination gathered in Bianjing in the winter of that year, and took the provincial examination "Chungui" in the spring of the following year. Those who passed the examination could be called Jinshi, qualified to be officials, and then take the palace examination.

Of course, this is just a ranking. In fact, it was not the case at the beginning. However, when the Holy Emperor first ascended the throne, there was an incident where a candidate passed the provincial examination, but was dismissed several times in the palace examination.

This candidate eventually defected to the Xixia Kingdom in anger, causing a lot of trouble for the northwest frontier camp. He led troops to imprison the country many times over the years. Since then, he has learned his lesson. The palace examination only determines the ranking, and will not remove the candidates again.

After all, being able to reach this point is considered a talent. Mr. Han Daxiangong, who was still the Minister of Rites at the time, made it very clear that you can’t give away meat to others in vain even if it is rotten in the pot... After lunch, the couple just After taking the child back home, Yuan Wenshao did not ride a horse, but sat in the carriage holding his eldest son. The more he looked at it, the more he liked it, and he was playing leisurely up and down.

"Giggle, giggle~" Yuan Jingshi, the child, was amused and grinned.

Uncle Yuan had given this name to his eldest grandson a long time ago, but Yuan Wenchun failed to live up to his expectations and was never able to give birth to a son. Now he finally used it.

"Respect" refers to the seniority of this generation, and "real" refers to Uncle Yuan's expectations, hoping that his eldest grandson can grow up solidly.

"Madam, look at our real brother, he looks different every day~"

"Well, yesterday I saw that my teeth were growing, and... Ouch, why am I drooling again? And you can't put your hands in your mouth!"

Hualan, a new mother, quickly took out her handkerchief, and after hurriedly wiping her son's face, she even took his little hands out of his mouth.

Then he turned his head and smiled, complaining: "This must be because my fifth sister didn't learn well from me. She loved to put her hands in her mouth when she was a child~"

"Hahaha, don't accuse my fifth sister wrongly. I guess the child is at the stage of teething, so I'll ask Grandma Liu to get a teething stick or something!"

After saying this, Yuan Wenshao straightened his legs and leaned directly on his wife's legs. He smelled the faint fragrance and subconsciously touched the bulge.

"Oh, what are you doing? Get up quickly~" Hua Lan trembled shyly.

Yuan Wenshao ignored her, hugged his son and closed his eyes unconsciously. He recalled that he had been working hard in the past two years, and this fat boy was also a lucky star. He was promoted and transferred to the fifth city within a few days after he was born. The soldiers and horses are all in charge of the seventh rank and have actual duties.

But it's not a problem if this continues. The future future is somewhat bleak, because from now on, the declining Earl's Mansion at home will not be able to exert any effort at all.

If he continues his qualifications at this rate, he may not even be able to wear the red scarlet robe with gray hair on his temples, let alone the purple scarlet robe that can only be worn by third-grade officials and above.

If we move out of the Earl's Mansion in the future, how can a small sixth- or seventh-grade official hang out in Bianjing City, where the rich and powerful are everywhere? It would be so embarrassing for the time traveler.

The people who came here were either made uncles or marquises, and they performed extraordinary feats on the battlefield. They beat the Liao and Dangxiang people everywhere and made them look like enemies. On the other hand, this was not a good thing for me. I had to follow those thugs on the street talking nonsense all day long.

"Alas~" The more Yuan Wenshao thought about it, the more worried he became. What would he do with his eldest son in his arms in the future?

Hua Lan saw this and asked with concern: "Official, why are you sighing? Is it because the new position is not going well?"

"It's okay, I remembered something else~" Yuan Wenshao made an excuse at random without explaining much.

Just bear the pressure by yourself, and your wife will be responsible for being happy, and even if you say it, it will be useless. Instead, you can only worry along with it.

When he got home, Yuan Wenshao got off the carriage first, then took his son from Hua Lan and handed it to the grandmother beside him, and then helped his wife down.

"Slow down~"

"It's fine!"

When he returned to Tao Ranju and his buttocks were still hot, he heard the maid Xia Liu coming over to report.

"Sir, the eldest lady asked you and the second mistress to come over because you have something important to discuss~"

"Yeah, I get it~" Yuan Wenshao frowned slightly as he spoke.

Because I don’t know why, I have an ominous premonition in my heart. It is estimated that the partial mother is going to be a monster again...
