Daughter of aristocratic family

Chapter 69 High School
  There are three rural examinations in total, each lasting three days. During these three days, candidates have to eat, drink, sleep, and have to do everything in the examination room.

The Zhao family father and son had paid tribute to the courtyard, and Mrs. Zhao Cui and the others were about to go back. As soon as they turned around, they heard someone shout: "Sister Shu."

Zhao Wangshu looked back and said with a smile: "Third Aunt Qin, Sister Hua."

Grandma Qin San bowed slightly and said, "Hello Aunt Seven, hello brothers and sisters."

"Hello." Mrs. Zhao Cui nodded slightly.

"Hello, third sister-in-law." Zhao Li smiled.

After saying hello, everyone walked out together. When getting on the carriage, Zhao Wangshu felt someone looking at her. When she turned her eyes, she saw Lin Fang not far away.

Zhao Wangshu frowned, was she here to see her eldest brother off?
  "Yue'er." Mrs. Zhao Cui called from the car.

Zhao Wangshu couldn't think anymore and got into the car.

As for the matter between Lin Fang and his eldest brother, we should wait until his eldest brother has finished the exam.

The Zhao family's father and son were taking exams in Gongyuan, and Mrs. Zhao Cui was not idle either. She took Zhao Wangshu to become a disciple.

Zhao Cui felt that most of the skills she learned at the Zhao family mansion were not practical.

"Study medicine?" Zhao Wangshu was surprised, "Grandma, do you want me to be a doctor?"

"I'm not asking you to be a doctor. I don't want you to work so hard. I just want you to learn some medicine knowledge. There are so many dirty things in the back house. We don't harm others, but we must be able to protect ourselves." Mrs. Zhao Cui touched her. The head said.

"Grandma, do you want me to go to such a complicated family?" Zhao Wangshu pouted, "I don't want to marry."

Home should be warm and beautiful, and she didn't want to quarrel with others.

Zhao Cui smiled, "Of course grandma will not marry you to such a family, but Yue'er, things are unpredictable and people's hearts are unpredictable. If you learn some medicine, even if you don't need it, you can learn to treat yourself. Body."

"But, grandma, I'm only going to be out for a few days. When dad and eldest brother finish the provincial examination, I have to go back to the mansion." Zhao Wangshu said dullly.

"It won't be long before Grandma will pick you up."

Zhao Wangshu leaned into her arms and said, "I know, grandma, I will learn from it."

Mrs. Zhao Cui found a master for Zhao Wangshu. She was a female doctor, surnamed Shen, who was over fifty years old. She was a former imperial doctor. She had no father, no mother, no children, no daughters. She was alone. She had been traveling abroad before returning to the capital. .

"Ah Ci, this is my little granddaughter Wangshu, whose nickname is Yue'er." Mrs. Zhao Cui said with a smile.

Doctor Shen smiled, "Is this my little apprentice? He doesn't look like you, but he is prettier than you."

"Do you think I look ugly?"

"How old are you? How can you look good if your face is full of wrinkles?" Dr. Shen teased.

Doctor Shen threw a book of "Compendium of Materia Medica" to Zhao Wangshu, "Take this book back and study it carefully. I will teach you after you finish reading it."

"Yes, Master." Zhao Wangshu took the book and said respectfully.

Opening the book, it read: One hundred and twenty kinds of medicines are prescribed for the king. They nourish life and respond to the sky. They are non-toxic. Taking it often and for a long time will not hurt anyone. If you want to lighten your body and replenish your energy, you will not grow old.
  After studying with Dr. Shen for two days, and having lunch early on the tenth day of the lunar month, Zhao Wangshu went to Gongyuan with his grandmother and mother to pick him up.

The carriage moved very slowly, and the streets were full of people, all going to the Gongyuan to pick up people.

"With so many candidates, I wonder how many of them can pass the examination?" Zhao Wangshu vaguely remembered that the acceptance rate of the provincial examination was not high.

"Only more than a hundred people." Mrs. Zhao Cui sighed, "This is the third time your father has participated in the provincial examination."

"Daddy will definitely pass the exam this time." Zhao Wangshu said confidently.

"I also hope he can win. Otherwise, if your brother fails in high school, he will be embarrassed to take the exam for the fourth time."

"Grandma, this is my brother's first time taking the provincial examination. Are you so sure that my brother will pass the exam in the first try?" Zhao Wangshu asked.

"Your brother has been smart since he was a child and is much better than your father."

"Grandma, Daddy will be sad if he hears you say that."

Mrs. Zhao Cui smiled, "Don't let anyone tell you the truth."

The grandfather and grandson were talking and arrived outside the Gongyuan. Waiting until the beginning of the Shen Dynasty, the gate of Gongyuan opened again.

To prevent stampedes, candidates still have to queue up when going out.

After staying in the examination room for three days and two nights, the frail candidates were already dying and were helped out by soldiers.

The Zhao family's father and son were in good health. As soon as they left the tribute courtyard with their boxes and cages on their backs, they heard someone shouting: "Master, Master, this way, this way."

When he saw it, it was A Xiang waving. He squeezed past and met his family members. Zhao Wangshu wrinkled his nose and said, "Dad, brother, why do you stink so much?"

"It's so hot. They haven't bathed for two or three days, but it smells so bad. Go back and go back." Zhao Cui said with disgust.

The servant helped the two of them find the carriage.

After getting on the carriage, Mrs. Zhao Li poured Qi and Yangshen soup for the two of them to drink.

After drinking the warm soup, the Zhao family and his son felt a little energetic.

Zhao Cheng smiled and said, "Mom, my son thinks he can do it this time."

"It will do well." Mrs. Zhao Cui handed him the wet handkerchief.

After returning to the small courtyard, they washed up hastily, ate a bowl of noodles, and then the father and son rested.

On the 12th and 14th, the second and third games were played. The Zhao family and his son went away in high spirits and returned with haggard heads.

The provincial examination was finally over, and Mrs. Zhao Cui sent Zhao Wangshu back to the Zhao family mansion.

Back at the mansion, Zhao Wangshu did not forget to study the "Compendium of Materia Medica". On her rest day, she went to see Dr. Shen.

"Book, you've been reading it for a while. I'm going to test you today. What's the effect of Ju Hua?" Doctor Shen.

"Ju Hua, has a bitter and mild taste, mainly due to wind, dizziness, swelling and pain, vision loss, tears, skin dead muscle, and rheumatoid arthritis."

Doctor Shen nodded slightly and said, "Donkey-hide gelatin."

"Donkey-hide gelatin has a sweet and flat taste. It is suitable for the heart and abdomen, internal collapse, and extreme fatigue. It can be sprinkled
  No matter what Dr. Shen asked, Zhao Wangshu always answered fluently, which made Dr. Shen quite satisfied, "Good boy."

On the second day of September, the provincial examination results will be released.

Zhao Wangshu returned to the small courtyard in Guizhi Lane on the first day of junior high school and waited for the results with his family.

Zhao Cheng was restless and walked around the yard.

"Stop dangling there, it makes me dizzy." Mrs. Zhao Cui couldn't help it, "Not as stable as your son."

Mrs. Zhao Li comforted him, "Master, don't worry, you will definitely win."

"Yes." Zhao Cheng nodded, but his nervousness and anxiety could still be seen.

"I hit it." A Xiang and Luo Shan, who went to see the list, came back.

"Who won?" Zhao Cui and Zhao Cheng asked eagerly at the same time.

"The eldest young master has passed the high school." Axiang said happily.

"I missed again." Zhao Cheng's face turned pale.

He read more books than his son, and thought he was better at writing articles than his son. His son's first provincial examination was at the age of seventeen, and he passed high school. He studied hard for many years, but failed in the third provincial examination.

"The master also won, he is the thirty-seventh." Axiang said quickly.

"I got it! I got it too!" Zhao Cheng laughed loudly, "It's good that I got it, it's good that I got it."

Ranking is not important, not to mention that his name is not too low, and he can still compete in the spring of next year.

Zhao Cheng also won, and the family members all breathed a sigh of relief. Zhao Wangshu smiled and said: "Congratulations to dad, congratulations to brother."

While talking, the sound of gongs, drums and firecrackers came from outside. It was the person who announced the good news.
