Good son-in-law of the Ming Dynasty

Su Mu could see clearly that when Master Su San asked these words, Su Ruisheng's face turned pale obviously, and his body trembled unconsciously.

"What's the matter?" Master Su San showed displeasure: "Respond as soon as possible."

Su Rui said in a low voice, "Father, this time... this exam, I didn't even get a single question right."

Third Master Su snorted: "Father already knows about the wrong question, little bastard, I asked you how you did the questions, not these, you answer truthfully."

Seeing the ugly face of the third master of his family, his disciples from the Su family rushed up to smooth things over: "Don't worry, the third master. Brother Ruisheng is the best-studied among my Su family disciples, and he is known for his talent. It's hard for him to come to this college exam." Pour him down."

"That's right, let alone my Su family, even if you look at the entire Baoding Mansion, Master Ruisheng is well-known, so he will definitely win this time."

"Master Ruisheng, please tell the third master the good news quickly, so that the third master won't be worried."

"Yes, yes, Ruisheng, don't hesitate to talk to others, I can't wait to hear your good news."

……

For a moment, everyone was full of anticipation.

Su Mu didn't know where the Su family's confidence came from, and the third master Su couldn't wait to come to the examination room in person, which was a bit louder.

It would not be an exaggeration to describe Su Ruisheng's imperial examination as being popular, as if he had to pass, and if he failed, absolutely not.

No wonder I told Su Ruisheng yesterday that if he failed the exam, he would be severely punished.

At that time, it was just a casual remark, but I didn't want to, and it hit the point.

Su Ruisheng's investment in Hu's Warehouse has already caused heavy economic losses to the family, and now everyone places high hopes on him. One can only imagine the extent of his psychological pressure.

At the moment, Su Mu was not in a hurry to eat, he just stood aside and watched the bustle with interest.

Su Ruisheng was urged by everyone, his face turned white and red, he was speechless.

Third Master Su was even more upset, and said sharply: "Little bastard, tell the truth, what happened?"

Su Ruisheng's body trembled, as if he had just woken up from his ignorance, and he seemed to subconsciously reply: "My lord, although the questions are all...naturally, I did very well in the exam, very... very good, and I did it all. "

"Can you hit it?" Master Su San asked with a frown.

"Can... naturally, can... be able to hit."

Third Master Su breathed a sigh of relief, and said angrily, "Little bastard, you finally didn't disappoint me."

The other Su family children also complimented: "I knew that Ruisheng could win."

"What kind of character is Aussie, it's a surprise if you don't hit it."

……

Seeing Su Ruisheng's hesitation in answering, Su Mu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately felt it was funny.

It seems that this guy failed the exam.It's just that because I'm afraid of Third Master Su, I dare not answer truthfully, anyway, let's avoid the first day of junior high school first.

As for how to deal with his father's anger after the fifteenth day, that was Su Mu's concern.

Master Su San stretched out his hand to straighten his son's clothes, and put on a rare kind expression: "You are hungry, I guess you can't wait to go back to eat now, there is a restaurant in front of you, and I have already made an appointment for my father." Seat, let's go!"

"Thank you, my father."

While talking, the third master Su suddenly turned his head and looked at Su Mu with a stern look: "Su Mu, you are also a child of my Su family after all, although you are just here to make up for this exam. However, you have this level of progress Xin, I, as an uncle, feel very relieved, you also go over to buy some food and drink together. These two are..."

Then he turned his attention to Mu and Sun Ersheng.

Su Mu didn't expect that the third master Su had already seen him, so he didn't want to stay, but the two classmates, Mu and Sun, saw that the third master Su asked about him, and at the same time stepped forward to salute and give his name, so they had to walk over.

Listening to the history of Mu and Sun, the third master Su heard that he was also the son of a scholarly family. He stroked his beard and said with a smile: "So it's the two of you, and I have some contacts with your parents. Since I am the son of an old friend, why not go together Talking in the restaurant."

Mu and Sun both nodded and promised at the same time when they saw Third Master Su's invitation, but Su Mu had no choice but to follow together.

The restaurant has a good location, because it is close to the Gongyuan, and there are many people in it, all of whom are scholars who have just finished their exams.

The college examination only lasted for one day and one night, and the examinees did not prepare firewood, rice, oil and salt, so they casually brought in two pieces of sesame seed cakes.After twelve hours, they were all so hungry that their eyes glowed green, and when they ate, they would not hesitate to eat.

There weren't many people talking, and they all picked up a few chopsticks hard first, and waited until they recovered, then had a glass of wine, let out a long breath, and chatted again.

When Su Mu, Mu and Sun saw the table was full of food and wine, they didn't care about other things, and after a few words of humility, they started to eat.Su Mu didn't like his third uncle very much, and those two classmates thought they were the first-class young scholars in Baoding Prefecture, and they still maintained basic elegance, and their food was not so ugly.

As for Su Ruisheng, obviously in a heavy heart, he put a chopstick dish into his mouth, and took a long time to swallow it, looking unwilling to eat.

However, Third Master Su kept picking up vegetables for his son, with a kind face on his face: "Ruisheng, it is also the first time for you to take part in the chapter test, so I don't know the difficulties involved. When I took part in the rural test for my father, I was imprisoned in it all at once. It lasted seven days. The autumn weather of that year was extremely hot, sweat came out one after another, and the body was smelly. Eat more, eat more, you are not in good health, you will be hungry this day, right?"

After a while, a hill was piled up in Su Ruisheng's bowl.

Su Mu shook his head for a while, feeling a little sympathetic to his third uncle.

In fact, there is nothing wrong with failing the exam.The competition in the imperial examination field is fierce, and no one is sure that they can pass the test in one pass. Many people have never won a scholar, let alone a scholar or a Jinshi.

If you do not do well in the exam, at worst, go back and study hard, and try again next year.

To be a human being, you must first be honest, because you are afraid of the wrath of the elders, you will resort to deception.But he didn't even think about it, he could be deceived for a while, but he couldn't be deceived forever, and when the truth came out, how would he face the world?

But after thinking about it, Su Mu couldn't help but laugh: The Su family treats me like this, I don't want to deal with these relatives in my life, so why bother?There are still seven days before the test results are released, and my subject is stable.Once you get the honor of a scholar, you have to go to Beijing to prepare for the provincial examination, and you will never go back to Baoding.At that time, the Su family will have nothing to do with me.

It's like waiting for seven days.

Thinking of this, Su Mu let go of his heart, smiled gently, and kept drinking and talking with Mu and Sun.

The talents of Mu and Sun are well known to Mr. Su San. These two are the top figures in Baoding's children's life. Gentry class.

As the saying goes, bullying the old does not bully the young.

They wanted to make friends, and paved the way for their son's future contacts.

Therefore, during the meal, he consciously or unconsciously let Su Ruisheng talk to Mu and Sun.

The strange thing is that the son still looks dull.

But the two scholars paid no attention to Su Ruisheng, they only chatted and laughed with Su Mu, as if they valued him very much.

Master Su San was unhappy, his brows were knit into a ball.

Looking at Su Mu's relationship with the two of them, he behaved well, calmly and unhurriedly.In contrast, Su Ruisheng looked very bleak.

There was a burst of anger in his chest, and he deliberately showed Su Mu some color.
