Ancient Imperial Examination Daily

Chapter 247 Returning to the Village
Those who study in the academy, first of all, are decent in character, and secondly, they are relatively simple, and their level of arithmetic is also decent.These are the points that Cao Ji's people are most interested in, so they are willing to recruit students from the academy, and they are not willing to directly seek students from the towns, for fear that other members of the family will take advantage of the loopholes and arrange their own people into Cao Ji.

However, the Du family's small family has nothing to do with Cao Ji and others. If Du Jinning recommends her, Cao Ji will try it even if she sells her face.With Du Yunyi, the old accountant behind him, Du Jincheng could take this job down if he wanted to.

Mrs. Zhang was very happy when she heard that: "Then I will thank you for your elder brother." Although Du Jinning did not introduce Du Jinde to the academy, she felt a little disappointed.But she was very satisfied to help Du Jincheng find a job as an accountant.

Since Du Jincheng failed the county test, they also wanted to find him a job as an accountant.But Du Jincheng is young and has never worked as an accountant, so others are not willing to ask for it.If anyone wants it, it's the kind of small workshop that closes down every now and then.Cao Ji Shuyin is considered a relatively large printing workshop in the county, and its business has always been good.If you can enter Cao Ji to work as an accountant, it will be a rare good job with high salary and extremely stable salary.

Du Jinning smiled, and explained: "I know that my uncle and my aunt want my elder brother and second brother to study in the academy. But the academy has its own rules. When I first entered the academy, I was repeatedly made things difficult by others. Favoritism. I was able to stay after passing countless exams. So the academy is not determined by the head of the school alone. Moreover, now the Ding class is all children aged [-] or [-], and the oldest is [-] or [-] years old. Even if the eldest brother and the second brother go in, they don’t know when they want to get into class A. And the rule of the academy is that they don’t take the scientific examination until they are in class A. In this way, it’s not only no good for the eldest brother and second brother to go in. On the contrary, because of the rules of the academy, there is no chance to go to the examination room to try your luck, so it would be better to stay in a private school outside."

These words are very reasonable, and the little regret in Mrs. Zhang's heart disappeared when she said this.

Her two sons, the youngest, Du Jinde, are both about 17 years old.With such an elm-headed head, even if the beard is white when you enter the academy, you may not be able to enter Class A.

Thinking about it this way, Mrs. Zhang became more grateful to Du Jinning, and immediately said: "When the matter with your second uncle is over, we will invite you to have a meal. Then let your elder brother thank you."

"My brother, don't be so polite." Du Jinning shook his hand.

Mrs. Zhang then said: "When do you plan to return to the village, your uncle and I will go with you." This is reciprocation.

Du Jinning nodded quickly: "Muxiu at the academy tomorrow, my mother and I will be waiting for you at the gate of the academy." He stood up and bowed to Mrs. Zhang, "Thank you, auntie, for thinking about us."

Mrs. Zhang was taken aback, stood up quickly, and said angrily, "What are you doing? You introduced such a good job for your eldest brother, and your eldest aunt hasn't saluted you yet. I will accompany you back to your hometown again." What's the deal."

"The eldest aunt is an elder, how dare Jinning accept the gift from her aunt." Du Jinning made it clear and planned to leave, "If the eldest aunt has nothing to do, I will leave first."

"Yeah, I'm going to leave too. You go first, and I'll come later."

Mrs. Zhang watched Du Jinning leave the teahouse, waited for a while, and then got up and hurried home.

On the second day, when Du Jinning and Mrs. Chen arrived at the gate of the academy on time, they saw Du Yunyi and Mrs. Zhang already waiting there.They also hired a mule cart in the city by the way.

Seeing the two, Mrs. Zhang rushed forward to greet them warmly. Seeing Mrs. Chen holding a basket in her hand, she hurriedly called Du Yunyi: "Go and take the things from the hands of the third sibling. A big man with no eyesight." .”

In the past, the Du family's young lady and his wife always looked aloof. Usually when Du Yunyi went back, he didn't even bother to give them the third bedroom.Seeing the two smiling all over their faces at this moment, Mrs. Chen is really not used to such enthusiasm.

She waved her hands again and again: "No, no, it's not heavy."

"I want what I want. Their men are strong, so they should carry something." Mrs. Zhang stepped forward to take the basket with her own hands, and then handed it to Du Yunyi, "Go, put it in the car."

Mrs. Zhang is a hypocritical person. In the past, she would still put on airs. Even if she wanted to make friends with the third room, she would not be so obsessive.

But after seeing Du Jinning's ability to turn clouds and rain, and finding a good job for Du Jincheng, her attitude completely changed.

With Zhang Shi and Du Jinning around, it doesn't matter even if Du Yunyi and Chen Shi share the same car.Besides, the farmer's family is not so particular. In the past, if there were no other guests in Zheng Lin's mule cart, it was not without strange men and women from the same village.

The four of them got into the car, Mrs. Zhang and Mrs. Chen sat together, and the two of them chatted about the family affairs all the way, talking about Du Fangfei and Du Fangyun's marriage and dowry.

"It's good for you, you found a Tongsheng to be your son-in-law. As expected, Brother Ning is very successful, and the older sisters are also enjoying the blessings." When Mrs. Zhang said this, she was envious from the bottom of her heart.

Because the Du family's small house is not well established, she only found Du Fangyun a husband's family who runs a small business.Now the wedding date has been set, just behind Du Fangfei.

Du Fangyun's marriage was arranged two years earlier, and the wedding date was originally ahead of Du Fangfei.Originally, Mrs. Zhang intended to make friends with Xiaosanfang, but she didn't want to make Du Jinning unhappy. When she knew that Du Fangfei was also engaged, and the wedding day was in autumn, she moved the wedding date back a few months.

"As long as the family is good, you are willing to make progress, and you love others, you can do whatever you want." Chen said with a smile.

"So, third brother and sister, you are a sensible person." When Mrs. Zhang said this, she felt a sigh of relief.

Mrs. Chen needs to have brains and looks. If her husband hadn't died early and met such in-laws, she might not be able to live a good life.

But it's not bad now, with a son like Brother Ning.

Mrs. Chen and Mrs. Zhang were chatting about family affairs, and Du Yunyi, who had been repeatedly urged by his wife, couldn't sit with Du Jinning like this, so he asked him about his situation in the academy as an uncle.

Chatting, time always passes quickly.Not long after, the speed of the mule cart slowed down, and the driver shouted in front, "Peach Blossom Village is ahead, do you want to get off at the side of the road or drive in?"

Without waiting for Du Yunyi to speak, Mrs. Zhang said: "It's inconvenient to drive in, it's inconvenient to carry things." Then he said to Du Yunyi, "Tell him how to get there."

After a while, the mule cart stopped in front of Du's house, and Du Yunyi got out of the cart first, lifted the things down first, and then helped Mrs. Zhang get out of the cart.Mrs. Zhang turned around and helped Mrs. Chen and Du Jinning get off the car.
