Gu Wenxuan wanted to say that there was no need to work hard to come back, but his elder brother took a few days off specifically to see if his body could withstand the county examination.

Even if he is so strong that he can knock down his elder brother with one move, in his eyes, this younger brother is not much older than his younger sister, and he is still a young boy who needs to be taken care of.

He had better be obedient and continue reading, otherwise he would have to worry about his eldest brother. He would be late when he went back, and his eldest sister-in-law should be worried about him.

There were quite a few people returning to the village with Gu Erlang, and among them were the fathers of the three candidates who saw that they no longer had to take their sons home, and each one was more anxious to go home than the last.

Then there is Zhou Tongsheng, and his father Zhou Xiucai is here. He also needs to go home and talk to his family. Besides, the village school cannot do without people.

There are so many people that the carriage will definitely not be able to fit in.

Gu Erlang was a relatively well-off man. He had someone rent two carriages early. Before leaving the city, he also passed by the inn where Gu Dalang was staying.

As expected, his uncle and Gu Dalang were not at the inn at this time.

A large group of people returned to the village, and the carriage did not have to wait long, so they had to go back to the village "unfortunately".

When he returned to Qinghe Village, he very wisely took his old man, Gu Erzhu, to the old home where he had gone first, and reported the good news - Brother Dalang and Liulang had both passed the official examination.

Don't forget how he knew that Gu Dalang had passed the main examination.

The problem is that his father is worried about his eldest nephew. Guang sent people to run two or three times this morning, and even went to the inn himself before coming back.

Anyway, he definitely couldn't say that yesterday when he was waiting for Gu Wenxuan and others to come out outside the examination room, he happened to meet his uncle, and he naturally tricked him out of the floating ticket serial number.

Isn't this simple?

There is no need to know the house number.

When he looked at the list this morning, he knew whether Dalang was on the list by looking at the floating ticket number.

Now, those on the list have improved compared to last year.

At least it squeezed into a piece of red paper in the middle of the list.

Although it is only in the bottom row, it can still be regarded as within the top thirty.

"Yes, this time it is exactly the same as the three red papers posted in the first trial last year.

There were still 100 candidates, but by the time the results were released in the second round, there were only 50 candidates.

By analogy, on the third day after the third exam, the general list will be released, and then there will only be thirty people on the list who passed the county examination. "

In other words, about 2,000 people have taken the county examination this year, but the number of admissions is still only 30?

Mr. Gu took a deep puff of his cigarette.

Grandson, you are so unlucky.

"Where's Mukuro, where is he ranked?"

Gu Erlang waited until Mr. Gu asked this question.

Before his father could open his mouth to show off, he grinned happily and said, "It's still ahead."

"This doesn't count. We still have to take the test. The red list that will be issued in a few days will count."

Gu Erzhu waved his hands repeatedly, his tone was very humble, and his expression was very unbeatable.

Mr. Gu glanced at his son, then turned to look at his grandson, "Where is Liulang's brother-in-law?"

"Also in front."

Now that it was said that, Gu Erlang simply didn't wait for Mr. Gu to ask again, "All six of them are on the list, and they are almost all at the front."

This silly boy is afraid that your grandpa will stop making trouble.

Gu Erzhu stood up quickly and said, "What's going on in the front and behind? There are two more games to come.

Mom, I haven’t gone home yet. I’ll go back first. Let’s chat later. "

Mr. Gu recovered his thoughts and was about to speak, but his son and grandson ran away.

"Take a look."

"What are you looking at?" Mrs. Gu looked confused, but soon she seemed to have come to her senses, "Oh, you said they don't sit around for a while.

I'm busy. I have a lot of things to do at home and outside.

If you have nothing to do, why don't you talk to your eldest and second brothers? "

Don't tell me what you three brothers were chatting about when you were hiding in the room that day!

snort. Thinking of it, Mrs. Gu felt unhappy.

They have been married for life, and they kept it secret from her!

"I'm old and useless. Even an old man with wrinkles on his face dares to look down on me."

With that said, Mrs. Gu imitated Mr. Gu and walked out of the east room with her hands behind her back.

Gu Erzhu had no idea that the two of them were still having conflicts about what happened that day.

home.

The pregnant eldest daughter-in-law laughed happily, and the old daughter also said that there was nothing going on at home, and the cooking work in the backyard was also well managed by Zhou Daya and his wife.

Seeing that everything was business as usual, and even the tasks assigned to him to do massage were managed by his eldest daughter-in-law and his old daughter, he wanted to go to Majiazhuangzi to find his in-laws.

Along the way, I took a look at the fields and the eight acres of wasteland.

Thinking that he and Zhoushun would be busy waiting for their two children to finish taking the county examination.

What a coincidence.

I met Thursday Shun on the way.

Zhou Shun was also thinking about his Sanya's workshop.

There was a heavy freeze on the ground before, so the construction of the workshop had to wait until the weather warmed up and thawed before construction could begin. There was no rush, so we could only wait slowly.

Although the weather is still cold, the snow has not yet melted, and it will be some time before construction starts. However, you can plan how many people will be hired to clear the ground.

Gu Erzhu had this intention.

Otherwise, the spring plowing season will soon come, and even the tenant farmers will be busy with work in the fields, and it will not be as easy to find strong laborers who are honest and hardworking as usual.

While the two in-laws were discussing, they went to Majia Village to find Ma Dazhuang and ask him how to arrange the fields next. After all, they had made an appointment to arrange the land together in the coming year.

Compared to Gu Erzhu and Zhou Shun, Zhou Banxia seemed heartless.

This side of the small courtyard.

As soon as the person left, she left too.

She said she had something to do with shopkeeper Wang and his wife, so she did go to Wang's house, but soon after she left Wang's house, she went shopping again.

On the way, he also turned into a bank account and exchanged some banknotes. Then he returned to the small courtyard with the two vases that the store deliberately refused to deliver to his door.

In the afternoon, Zhou Xiucai went to find his brother-in-law. Mrs. Liu and the cook prepared dry food for the examination room tomorrow, leaving the six candidates who were reviewing their homework quietly.

Zhou Banxia finished today's hour's embroidery work, and suddenly found that there seemed to be nothing to do, but he didn't want to continue busy with embroidery work today.

Yesterday, when they were in the examination room, they saw the two mothers looking nervous. Their attempts to persuade her did not work, so she hid in the room and did embroidery work for almost a day.

Don't work too hard in this job.

Go to the kitchen.

Mrs. Liu was reluctant to let her do it. In order to allow Gu Wenxuan to get up early tomorrow, the old daughter-in-law would definitely have the same troubled sleep tonight as the night before.

Since she was allowed to rest, Zhou Banxia did feel a little sleepy, so she simply went back to her room to sleep on the kang.

It's all right now.

When I woke up, it was already dark, and all the relatives and friends who had returned to the village had arrived.

She was the only one who slept so darkly that she didn't even know when they would come back.

over slept.

After dinner, I prepared the unlined clothes that Gu Wenxuan and Dajiang would wear tomorrow morning, checked the test basket, and lay down again, but couldn't fall asleep no matter what.

But she couldn't distract Gu Wenxuan. She had to pretend to sleep very soundly and lie down next to him honestly, but it tortured her to death.

It's time to wait till the clock strikes, and it's already the fourth watch.

After staying up for another half hour, I was finally able to escape Gu Wenxuan's hands and feet and get up quietly.

"You kid, you got up so early again."
