Rebirth of the beauty of the peasant girl

Chapter 257
After making an appointment with Lan Hao to pick her up the next day, Liu Qingluo took Li Beibei out of the carriage and walked towards the place where the imperial list was posted.

Although her name had appeared in this place before, it was her first time here.

Li Beibei knew the way very well, so he pulled her and squeezed in.

Qingluo stopped her: "They are all men, let's watch outside."

Naturally, most of the people gathered around here were students from scientific examinations, but there were also many young women who joined in the fun.

Whenever the test results are posted, it is the busiest time here. It is understandable for the girls to want to see what young talents are there.

Therefore, no one noticed Liu Qingluo and Li Beibei at first.

Except for the students who were anxious, when they peeked at the girls, they inadvertently saw Qingluo's appearance, and couldn't help being shocked.

Qing Luo didn't care much about these things, and her eyes were directly cast on the names on the list.

The one at the top of the list is a man named Wu Yaozu, who lives up to his name, and now he really is Yaozu.

For the names she didn't recognize, she swept them all away, looking all the way down.

Until the very end, there really was no Uncle Liu's name—Liu Ping'an.

It seems that this time, Second Uncle Liu was named Luosun Shan as expected!

"Your Second Uncle Liu won't be complacent this time!" Li Beibei gloated and smirked.

Qing Luo said with a smile: "He always has a reason to excuse himself."

While speaking, someone not far away shouted loudly: "It's not good! Someone jumped into the river again!"

Qing Luo was taken aback when she heard the words.

Some older students around shook their heads and sighed: "Don't look, I failed again, and I'm the third one today! Sigh!"

As a scholar, I have bet all my life on scientific examinations, hoping that one day I can be on the list and be known all over the world.

Helpless facts are always cruel.

There are countless scholars in the world, but only a few of them can obtain fame.

The students who failed the rankings could only bump their heads again and again. Those with poor psychological quality couldn't bear it, and those who felt ashamed to go back to see their family and parents simply committed suicide.

This kind of thing happens every time the list is released.

For this reason, the imperial court also specially set up officers and soldiers by the river, and when they saw someone jumping into the river, they took him up with a net.

"Little Qing'er, let's go and have a look too!" Li Beibei took Qingluo and followed the cheering crowd to the riverside.

Sure enough, I saw two soldiers dragging a wet man out of the water with fishing nets.

The man looked like he was in his forties, wearing a washed and whitish blue gown, curled up in the fishing net with his eyes closed, with a look of lovelessness on his face.

"Oh, I'm still taking the exam for a scholar at such an advanced age..." Some people talked about it.

"Looking at his poor appearance, he probably won't be able to get along anymore, so he's looking for death, committing crimes..."

The voices of the surrounding people's discussions were not small, and when they reached the man's ears, the man was even more ashamed and wanted to die.

Li Beibei looked at him and asked curiously: "You are so old, if you can't pass the exam, you really don't have much talent, why bother to die here, do some other business, it's not good to live a stable life?"

Qing Luo shook her head and said: "For these scholars, letting them go from being noble scholars to engage in small business and peddling, that is more sad than killing them."

"It's really strange, don't they need to support their wives and children, don't they need to support their elders..."

"Heh, in their eyes, wives and children are more important than their future!" Qingluo sneered, "How lucky are men in this world. Have you forgotten the story of Chen Shimei I told you?"

Li Beibei immediately shook his head: "Of course I haven't forgotten, that's why I look down on these poor scholars..."

The two of them didn't deliberately lower their voices when they spoke, and Qingluo had an outstanding appearance and a dusty temperament, which would have attracted many people's attention.

Hearing their conversation at this time, some students who couldn't understand retorted: "You two girls, although I don't know who Chen Shimei you are talking about, but isn't it a bit too much for you to directly deny all scholars like this?"

It was a young man in his twenties who spoke, and he seemed to be speaking righteously.

Li Beibei curled her lips: "Girl, I didn't name you, you jumped out in such a hurry, did you get poked in a sore spot by us?"

"No!" The young man said proudly, "We have read sages' books since we were young, and we are knowledgeable and rational, and we have ambitions in our hearts. How can the two girls slander and speculate at will!"

Qingluo nodded: "If you don't sweep a house, how can you sweep the world? If a man can't even raise his wife and children, it would be too ridiculous to discuss the world. Talking about ideals and ambitions, isn't it just for fame and fortune?"

The young man frowned: "Miss has too much prejudice against us scholars, I don't know about others, at least I will never do so!"

Li Beibei asked: "Excuse me, did you pass the exam this time?"

The young man proudly said, "I'm lucky to be on the list."

Others who had his friends said: "See, Wu Yaozu who is at the top of the list is him!"

Qingluo glanced at him upon hearing this.

Being able to be admitted to the top of the case is a bit of real talent.

Li Beibei said: "Since you are at the top of the list, you are indeed not bad, but you can't represent other scholars. Didn't there be someone who committed suicide by jumping into the river just now? Doesn't he have parents, wives and children? It can be seen that this scholar is really pitiful." Unreliable!"

"Hey, what are you talking about, little girl!"

Li Beibei's words finally aroused public outrage.

Originally, these students were proud and arrogant. They couldn't bear to be belittled by two beautiful girls, and they immediately attacked Qingluo and Li Beibei.

Li Beibei was not afraid, she pinched her waist and said, "Huh, did I say something wrong? It's a shame that you are still taking the exam for talents at such an age!"

The students all blushed with anger, and said one after another: "You little girl, how do you know how to read people?"

"That's right, you're actually uttering wild words here!"

"Do you know how to read? Have you ever read a book? Do you dare to comment on us scholars?"

The students who were still watching the excitement immediately united and attacked Li Beibei.

Qingluo frowned, took Li Beibei's hand, and said, "Let's go, it's useless to tell them."

Li Beibei's fiery personality, how could he stand being ridiculed like this?
She pushed Qingluo to the front of her body, and said loudly: "I shut up all of you! Said that my aunt has never read a book? Do you know who this is?"

The students only saw that Qing Luo was fresh and delicate, and they shook their heads when they knew her, but they didn't dare to speak ill of her.

Judging by her dress and temperament, she is clearly not an ordinary person.

Li Beibei proudly announced: "Hmph, let me tell you, she is Liu Qingluo, the first female Wenxiu woman who defeated the prime minister of Shangguan! Do you think she has the right to comment on your scholars?"

wow——

The students were shocked.
