Chapter 569

Two days later, the results of the first county examination were announced.

Old Man Li went to see the list in person early in the morning. He didn't know many words, but that didn't stop him from wanting to see it in person.

Li Rongzhang and others naturally followed him.

When we arrived outside the examination room, there were already crowds of people, including the candidates and their families, and everyone looked nervous and expectant.

There were so many people that it was crowded and people were falling down. Li Rongzhang and his brothers protected Old Man Li tightly, fearing that he would be pushed down and fall, which would be terrible.

It was crowded and we finally waited until around 9 o'clock.

Following three drum beats, two yamen runners came out carrying two large red papers and posted them on the wall.

The two yamen runners were obviously experienced. They left immediately after the list was posted. The candidates from all around rushed forward and surrounded the list. If they were a step later, the two yamen runners would have been pushed against the wall.

Li Rongzhang also struggled to squeeze forward. They arrived early and were originally standing in the front position, but they were squeezed and fell out of the front. Fortunately, they were not far behind. Now they squeezed hard and rushed to the front.

When I got to the front, I was unable to see clearly because I was not tall enough. I could only stand on tiptoe and look through the gaps between people.

Li Rongzhang was confident, so he naturally went to look at the round list first.

After a lot of effort, I finally saw a familiar name on the round list.

"Tan Ge'er! You are in the inner circle! In the inner circle! I am here too! Right behind you! We both passed! Inner circle! Haha!"

"What do you mean by inner circle and outer circle?" Old Man Li didn't understand.

Li Rongtan, who was protecting him, was so happy when he heard Li Rongzhang's call that he laughed out loud, and said hurriedly: "Only 50 people will be selected from the round list, divided into two circles, the inner circle will take 20 people, and the outer circle will take 30 people. Even if the inner circle does not participate in the subsequent rounds, they can directly participate in the prefectural examination!"

"Oh! Tan Ge'er, you are in the inner circle? You are in the inner circle, right? You are so awesome! Great, great, great! Great!" Old Man Li was so excited, otherwise Tan Ge'er would have won the lottery. It shows that God also knows that Tan Ge'er is a promising student!

"Zhang Ge'er is also in the inner circle, right? Great, great! You two brothers are both amazing! These four years of study have not been in vain!"

Father Li understood it as soon as he thought about it. Twenty people will be selected from the inner circle. Zhang Ge'er and Tan Ge'er are both in the inner circle, which means they are among the top twenty!

All is well!
It’s pretty good to get such a good result in the first attempt!
In the front, Li Rongzhang read the entire round list through the cracks. He didn't see Li Rongfeng's name or the other person's name, but he didn't give up and quickly squeezed to the list next to it.

There are still three hundred names on this secondary list!
Li Rongfeng and Li Ronghua jumped onto this list as soon as they arrived. They didn’t even dare to think about making it to the full list, and they just hoped to get a place on this secondary list. Otherwise, they wouldn’t be able to continue taking the exams below!
In order to travel, the two of them squeezed together and prayed hard in their hearts, there is a name! There is a name!

I finally squeezed to the front, and the sea of ​​names was dizzying. I quickly started looking from the back to the front!
Li Rongfeng was lucky. He found his name after searching for a few names. "I'm on the list! On the list! Here! The fourth from the last!"

He was so excited that his voice was so loud that the people around him looked disgusted. What was there to be excited about being the fourth from the bottom? Was it really that important?
After searching the entire secondary list and not seeing his name, the man immediately slapped himself in the face. Well, being the fourth from the bottom is also worth being excited about. It’s okay even if he is the last one, wuwuwu…

Li Rongfeng found his own name and then continued to look for Li Ronghua's name, but he didn't see it after searching for several times. He couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. Could it be that Brother Hua didn't win?
No way! Brother Hua always scores better than him in every school exam, it doesn't make sense for him to be on the list and Brother Hua not!
Li Ronghua also looked disappointed.

Li Rongzhang, who had just squeezed over, grinned and pointed at Li Ronghua's name, "Brother Hua is here!"

The two of them looked quickly and saw Li Ronghua's name, indeed, the 20th from the last.

Li Rongfeng was overjoyed: "We are all in, so we can take the second exam!"

Li Ronghua was also happy, but secretly sweating. Although he passed the first round, his ranking was so low, it would be difficult to pass the second round.

If they can only take the first two exams and not the last three, even if they can't finish all five, Sister Pomegranate will still not let them go traveling. Try harder!
Upon learning that several people had passed, Shi Liu smiled happily, and encouraged them to keep up the good work, strive to move forward, and try not to fall behind.

The next day, the four entered again to take part in the second county examination.

The results were announced two days later. Naturally, Li Rongtan and Li Rongzhang were still on the list, not surprisingly, while Li Rongfeng and Li Rongzhang were still at the bottom of the list.

When it came to the third test on interpreting the Four Books, the two of them failed and had to stop regretfully.

After looking at the list, they both cried their hearts out even though they hadn't cried in many years since they grew up.

Li Rongzhang and Li Rongtan hurriedly comforted them, "It's okay, it's okay. You are already very good. You have passed the first two exams! Let's go back and work hard and try again next year!"

Li Rongfeng raised his hand to wipe away tears. "It would have been better if I hadn't taken the exam at the beginning. Now that I've passed two exams in a row, I'm so happy. But I can't pass the next exam. I feel so sad!"

I didn't want this kind of thing at the beginning and didn't have any expectations or ideas, but after it came and two games, my thoughts changed.

I just wonder, why can’t they always pass the exams?
If they had known that Zhang Ge'er and the others were teaching the mind mapping memory method, they would have put in the effort to learn it!
Li Ronghua was also unwilling to accept the fact. It would have been fine if he had not participated in the county examination, but after participating and failing to pass, he felt that something was not right, especially since Zhang Ge'er and Tan Ge'er had both passed, but they could not continue to pass.

Li Ronghua clenched his fist, wiped away his tears, looked at Li Rongzhang and said, "You guys should work hard next time! When you pass the exam, come back and teach us the mind map memory method. We must study hard this time!"

After they have learned well, they will come back next year. By then, they must win five games in a row!

Li Rongfeng also nodded hurriedly.

Li Rongzhang patted his chest and assured: "No problem! As long as you are willing to learn, we will teach you when we come back!"

Pomegranate on the side watched and listened, and smiled silently.

When the two men looked at her with guilty and eager eyes, but didn't want to mention the traveling anymore, she didn't say much, just told them to work hard.

But I have decided in my heart that when Zhang'er and the others pass the provincial examination in April, they will go out to travel, and it will be a good idea to let Hua'er and the other two go with them to see the world.

A few days after the fifth exam, the county exam results were officially announced.

This time there is no longer a round list, nor a sub-list, only a long list, and only fifty people will be selected.

Only fifty people were qualified to take part in the provincial examination, and Li Rongsheng barely ranked 50th.

As for Fan Jin, his results in the county examination and the prefectural examination were pretty good. If he was not in a hurry to take the exam, he would have achieved better results in the academy examination.

The provincial examination was like a battle of gods, but to pass it was 30% luck and 70% strength.

When the county examination results were announced, Li Rongzhang and Li Rongtan were both on the list.

One was ranked eighth and the other was ranked sixth, both were in the top ten in the county, a great honor.

The official announced the good news, and the whole Xiahe Village became bustling with people coming to the Li family to congratulate them.

As for the Fan family, they also won several prizes this year.

For a time, the reputation of Fan's School became even more famous. Unfortunately, Fan's School is no longer recruiting new students for the time being, which is a pity.
