golden scales

A, B, C, D and fourth-class diplomas are the Donggong selection test, not the national exam. . Shihlin derogatoryly called this new exam "Nv Ding Ke", which means that only female bai Ding will take the test.In terms of actual difficulty, the first-class diploma is not inferior to the county examination, but it is more practical and the pass rate will not be hard.

In the local area, taking these fourth-class diplomas does not directly get a job, and you need to take the corresponding job test.For example, among the female officials in the Eastern Palace, there are departments of finance, anthology, auditing, and medical care. In addition to having a first-class diploma, they must also have the professional ability of the corresponding department. This exam is the basic exam.

In an official family like the Huang family, women also need to read, read, write poetry and composition.Among the rich and powerful families, their own girls have to learn how to manage money, so that they can be a family when they marry into their mother's family.It's just because they are limited to their gender that they can't take part in the imperial examination, otherwise there will be many talented women and capable officials who make men ashamed.

Zhu Cihong does not discriminate against sex.He respects Ming's social customs and will not advocate equality between men and women.Otherwise, he will not only be regarded as an alternative by traditional moralists, but even women in the world may not appreciate him.However, from the perspective of human resources, a large number of "resources" are locked in the boudoir, with no production capacity but no social benefits. What could be a greater waste than this?

The imperial examination is forbidden to the scholar-officials, but this "female Dingke" can solve the problem of lack of human resources.

Whether it is an enterprise or a country, research and investigation on human resources is nothing more than ensuring that someone is available.In the case of insufficient overall resources, it is especially important for people to do their best.

Subdivide ability levels, introduce a large number of fresh blood, and liberate high-level ability personnel from low-level jobs, and go to more suitable positions to exert greater social benefits. The gains will be immeasurable.

Moreover, lowering the cultural threshold is like opening up a low-level market in a monopoly market. As time goes by, explosive growth is bound to occur and the original market will be subverted.

The short-sighted saw the increase in the number of scribes, and the increasing sales of paper and ink.

Those who have a long-term vision have seen the change of customs, and the Ming Dynasty Hall, which only saw men, will inevitably have a melodious and graceful female voice.

……

"You're the one at tomorrow's day. Don't make a mistake. Latecomers will not be allowed to enter." The county school's instruction wrote Wang Yi's admission ticket and handed it out. He then bowed his hands to Huang Desu without saying a word. Send it back to the office.

Huang Desu bowed to the end and returned the full salute.When he was the county magistrate, he didn't even bat an eyelid when he met this instructor, but now he bears the name of a prisoner, and his dignity is reversed.

Wang Yi still didn't know what was going on in the adult's world, so he also saluted and thanked him, carefully put away the admission ticket, and couldn't help but take it out to read it again after taking two steps.From the place of origin, name, age, appearance, and father and grandfather, I saw Master Meng all the way——Huang Desu was written on it.

——This is the name of Mr. Huang, but why does the village elder call him a dog official?Mr. Huang is very kind to everyone, and he is serious about his lectures.

Wang Yi was puzzled, but just followed Mr. Huang, and then went back to the yard.

As soon as he entered the door, Wang Yi felt a gust of fragrant wind.I saw a girl in an apricot-yellow jacket and a green willow-colored horse-face skirt running towards her in a hurry, she was taken aback for a moment, her eyes seemed to be pulled.

"Daddy!" The girl's voice was clear and melodious, and she saluted Huang Desu.

Huang Desu coughed softly: "Your mother said that you went to Laizhou Mansion and you will not be able to come back until tomorrow, but you came back sooner than expected. This is your junior brother."

The girl smiled at Wang Yi, stepped forward and took her father's arm, and said, "When I came back, I took the official carriage, so it was much faster."

"Did you pass the exam?" Huang Desu asked lightly, and walked inside.

"I passed the exam! I will be working in the anthology department, and I will go to Fucheng to work in five days." The girl wanted to jump up.

"Why don't you discuss things like this with me beforehand?" Huang Desu had students behind him, and he didn't want to be too talkative. Otherwise, as a father, he would have no paternal authority, and as a teacher, he would have no respect for his teacher. How can he be a man?

"I'm afraid my father will not allow me to go after hearing the rumors." Miss Huang lowered her voice, and then said with a smile: "Maybe I can see my father in the village school in the future. I, the anthology department, patrol the villages for Donggong , Li Elementary School."

"Cough cough." Huang Desu coughed dryly, pushed the door open and entered the room, and saw that there was a plate of meat dishes on the table, he couldn't bear it: "Even if you pass the exam, the family still has to live frugally."

"Dad, don't worry! Your daughter is now an official of the ninth grade of Ming Dynasty, and her monthly salary is also five qian silver." Miss Huang pulled her father into a seat, then turned to her mother and said, "Mother, wait until next month when my daughter gets her salary. , redeem your hairpin first."

Huang Desu knew that his wife had gone to the pawnshop again, otherwise how would the family have money to buy meat?He sighed secretly in his heart, only seeing his daughter happily talking about the exam, he held back abruptly and did not dampen her interest.It's true that life is really sad these days, and five qian silver is so exciting. Speaking of it, this income is not as high as that of a groom.

"This is the situation now, let's sit and eat together." Seeing that his wife and daughter wanted to avoid him, Huang Desu said, "Besides, Wang Yi is not an outsider, so there is no need to be formal."

It was only now that Wang Yi went up to meet the senior sister, and then sat down at a table to eat a little cautiously.He vaguely heard his husband and his wife talking in the room just now, knowing that his family is in a difficult situation, he is embarrassed to pick up the meat, and he just picks up rice and vegetables.It wasn't until Huang Desu spoke that two pieces of shredded pork were caught.

In "Eat without Talk", the four of them finished their meal, and Mrs. Huang and her daughter cleaned up the table.Huang Desu walked to the desk, stood for a long time, stretched out his hand to drip a few drops of water from the water drop, and then took the ink to grind.

Wang Yi was also fine, and didn't know the rules, so he just stood by and watched Mr. write.

Huang Dezun polished a thick ink, picked up a pen and spread the paper, concentrated slightly, and began to write like a flutter.

"Grand Xie is the youngest and takes pity on daughters, marry Qian Lou and be good at everything.

Gu I have no clothes to search for painting boxes, but he sells wine and pulls out gold hairpins.

Wild vegetables add food to sweet Changhuo, and fallen leaves add fuel to Yangguhuai..."

When writing the last couplet, Huang Desu suddenly woke up. Yuan Zhen's "Sorrowful Heart" is a memorial to his deceased wife.The next two sentences: "Today's salary exceeds [-], and I will have a memorial ceremony with the king's camp and return to the camp." It is just to say: Now that you are in a high position, life is easier, but a virtuous wife has no blessings to enjoy it, so she can only prepare a meal for sacrifice... …

——I still have a virtuous wife and daughter, even if I have been living such a hard life, it is better than holding a hundred thousand salary and being separated forever.

Huang Desu put down his pen, rolled up the paper and put it in his sleeve, waiting to be burned.Seeing Wang Yi's bewildered face, he said, "You will sleep with me in this room tonight, and let your senior and senior sisters sleep next door."

"Sir, I'll just sleep under the eaves." Wang Yi said, "I used to wander around with my father, and sleeping in wild places was a common occurrence."

"Sleep as soon as I tell you to sleep." Huang Desu pointed to the door: "Get water by yourself, burn your feet before going to bed."

"Yes, sir." Wang Yi walked out when he heard that, but his eyes went dark, and he bumped into a soft body. It was the senior sister who came in to make the bed for his father.

Both of them let out an "ah" at the same time, and hurriedly lowered their heads to avoid it, neither of them dared to take the first step.Seeing such a stalemate, Wang Yi was even more frightened, and hurriedly backed away to let the senior sister come in first.

Huang Desu frowned, but said nothing.He lamented in his heart: the ancients said that courtesy should not be inferior to ordinary people, but it is really difficult to follow the courtesy!With such an inch of land, how can we defend against men and women?

Wang Yi let his senior sister go in first, and was about to go out when he stopped quickly.It turned out that an outsider came, and he looked like a down-and-out scholar, similar to Mr. Huang.

"Brother Cong'an, you're taking the liberty." The visitor glanced at Wang Yi, nodded slightly, stepped into the room and bowed his hands in salute.

Seeing Huang Desu, he quickly stepped forward to return the salute, saying: "Brother Wenquan, please sit down." He turned to his daughter and said, "Go make tea."

Zhang Wenquan sat down, called Miss Huang to stop, and said with a smile, "A glass of clear water is enough to taste."

Huang Desu wasn't sure if there was still tea for guests at home, so he said to his daughter, "If so, I will accompany Brother Wenquan to 'but drink clear springs to wash away the turbid stomach'."

The two looked at each other and smiled, but soon they frowned again.Miss Huang quickly brought two glasses of water, put them in front of them and went out.

"Brother Cong An," Zhang Wenquan saw that there was no one around, immediately filled with sorrow, and shook his head again and again, "Ah, ah, it's really raining all night." (To be continued.)
