Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Chapter 610 Laughing in the Late Night

After sitting for a while, Su Mu suddenly laughed: what should come will always come, no matter what the topic is.Whether it is difficult or easy, whether you can do it or not, you have to face it directly.Su Mu, Su Mu, when you were in the modern society, you didn't know how many exams you have passed since you were young.As far as the initial experience is concerned, it is not comparable to that of the ancients.

The characteristic of modern exam-oriented education is to repeatedly burn the basic knowledge into your memory in different ways.As long as you see the topic, you can do it subconsciously.This situation is like learning Go, in which all the answers are detailed, so that you can memorize them completely, so that you can only have a boring and mechanical answer when you see a question, and you have no other messy thoughts.

Back then, on the night before I entered the college entrance examination, I was chatting with some classmates by the river, drinking soda with the cold wind blowing!It never occurred to me that tomorrow is an important moment that will define your life.In fact, the average exam every two days will make you completely numb.

Today, why are you suddenly afraid?

perhaps……

Maybe I was young and ignorant back then, and I didn't have too many burdens on me.

But after traveling to the Ming Dynasty, Su Mu shouldered a huge responsibility.

His ups and downs of honor and disgrace are directly related to the fate of Miss Wu, Hu Ying and Xiaodie, and even the future of Mr. Wu and Hu Shun.

Once I, Su Mu, fail the ranking, I will have no chance to enter the officialdom, and I have to wait another two years.In two years, free from the core decision-making level of Ming Dynasty politics, anything could happen.

And two years later, still not in?

Also, even if you get a Jinshi by chance this time, but because your ranking is too low, you can't enter the Imperial Academy, will the Hu family still let their daughter be the two elders of my Su Mu?

Hu Ying is also getting older, and in the Ming Dynasty she was already a leftover woman. Will the Hu family wait for me, Su Mu, for two years?

This responsibility, this burden, is simply too heavy.It was so heavy that when I got the title, I was scared.

When it comes to caring, every fear is true!

……

Containing the trace of solemnity and uneasiness in his heart, Su Mu took out the flint and scythe, and beat it vigorously.

Before entering the examination room, each candidate can get three candles for lighting.Therefore, each candidate will prepare a set of flint and fire sickle for ignition.Exquisite candidates will also bring their own candlesticks.

This set of ignition tools was just bought by Xiaodie for Su Mu, and it has not been used yet.

For some unknown reason, Su Mu found that his hands were trembling non-stop, as if he was going crazy.After knocking a few times, only a few sparks jumped in the darkness, but the tinder couldn't be lit for life or death.

Suddenly, my right hand convulsed, but I couldn't straighten it.

Su Mu was annoyed, knowing that he had a tendency to be crushed by pressure.He hurriedly threw the flint and fire sickle on the writing board, and patted the back of his right hand vigorously with his left hand.

But even if the back of the hand was slapped so painfully, the curled palm still couldn't be opened.

When Su Mu was anxious, a layer of sweat came out of his vest.

At this time, Wu Shiqi and Duan Jiong on the opposite side also received the question paper.

Both of them took out the ignition tools at the same time, unlike Su Mu's hands and feet, with just a light tap, a ball of fire ignited.

The sudden bright light made Su Mu squint his eyes, and also attracted his attention.

Su Mu simply looked over. According to him, Mr. Wu and Duan Jiong's knowledge of Chinese culture is indeed deeper than his own.After all, he, Su Mu, became a monk halfway, and the two of them had been exposed to the Four Books and Five Classics since they were six years old.

However, when it comes to writing eight-part essays and test-taking ability, Su Mu thinks that he is not much behind them.

At this moment, one only needs to look at the expressions on their faces to know the difficulty of this exam.

Mr. Wu slept all day. Although the candlelight was dim, Su Mu could still see the red threads in his eyes.The old man's face was a little pale, and forehead lines had already appeared on his forehead, making him look a little slumped.

Su Mu didn't expect that the medicine would be so powerful after doubling the dose, and it would make him look sleepy and lazy after a whole day's sleep.

After lighting the candles, Su Mu could clearly see that Mr. Wu's hands were visibly trembling slightly, obviously, he also seemed very nervous.

The old man didn't hesitate like Su Mu did, instead he quickly picked up the question paper and glanced at it with a kind of agility that an old man of his age didn't possess.

After only one glance, the old man's hands stopped trembling, and the wrinkles on his forehead also stretched out.There was also a layer of luster on the previously haggard face.

At this moment, Wu Shiqi's face was radiant.

He gently placed the topic paper on the table, and then pressed it with a marble paperweight.

Then he glanced at Su Mu with a smile, and began to take off his clothes until only a pair of underpants were left, then jumped onto the kang and continued to sleep.

Only ten seconds later, the old man's snoring sounded again in the examination room.It was different intermittently from the previous earth-shattering.This time the old man's snoring was much lower and very cheerful, with a rhythm like a minuet.

From the very first moment when he saw the topic, Mr. Wu showed a kind of calmness in his chest. Judging from his appearance, he was almost sure of this first scene.And as long as the first scene of Chunwei is completed, the next two scenes are nothing at all.

Su Mu felt relieved suddenly, thinking, could it be that the exam questions are so simple that Mr. Wu let out a long sigh of relief?

No, no, it won't be very simple.

If the topic is too simple, you will do it, and others will do it too. 7000 people can do it, and there are too many uncertainties in the competition.As a proven veteran of the exam, Su Mu naturally knew that when he entered the exam room, all the questions were simple questions on basic knowledge, which was not good news for relatively top students.

So, could it be that the questions in this exam are very uncommon.No, it should not be the case.

At this time, suddenly, there was a burst of laughter in the silent night.

The laughter was not loud, but it was very joyful and very proud.

Yes, someone was laughing wildly.

Su Mu searched for the sound and saw Duan Jiong was shaking violently while holding the question paper, laughing until tears came out.

Hearing the laughter, the proctor was furious, and shouted sharply: "What are you doing, who is roaring in the examination room?"

Duan Jiong was taken aback, and hurriedly covered his mouth with his hands, but his body was still trembling: "It's done, it's done!"

Seeing him so proud, Su Mu also smiled.

Secretly said: It seems that the questions of this exam should be neither simple nor difficult, but they are just suitable for the former General Secretary and others.No wonder Mr. Wu fell asleep peacefully after reading the topic.After all, Duan Jiong is young, proud of himself, unable to control his emotions, so he laughed out loud.

Now that they had such confidence in this test, Su Mu's heart suddenly relaxed, and only then did he realize that his stiff right hand had returned to normal.

Now he was not afraid anymore, he knocked the flint and lit the candle smoothly.

The topic paper was unfolded.

"Ah!" Su Mu could not help but let out a low cry as if struck by lightning, the paper in his hand fell to the ground, and his heart began to beat violently again.
