Supreme peasant girl to turn over

Chapter 411 Imperial Examination?

The two slowly fell asleep like this, the night was very quiet, only the crickets were chirping softly outside the window, and Xia Chan was far away, roaring at Xia Tian hoarsely.

Qingwen gently closed the window halfway, and slept on the couch outside for the night.

The next morning, Yang Fengxian got up. Because he had an appointment with Gu Qingyan and Li Mingxiu today, Pei Xiaoyao did not leave early in the morning, but Yang Fengxian did not see him. He walked in from the door with a refreshed look.

Qingwen was a little tired on duty last night, so today Qingshuang took over. After Qingshuang fetched water to wash Pei Xiaoyao's hands, Yang Fengxian turned her head and asked, "Why did you get up so early today?"

Pei Xiaoyao walked up to her and took Luo Zidai, and carefully painted Yang Fengxian's eyebrows and eyes: "I went to practice with Quan Fu today. This kid has made a lot of progress, and he looks like me back then. It seems that Fu Rong The gentleman introduced to him by the princess is quite good."

When Gu Yimei, the lord of Furong County, came to Yang Fengxian's mansion, she once said that she would introduce Mr. Wenwu to her younger brother Yang Quanfu, and then sent someone to invite him over the next day.

Pei Xiaoyao treats Yang Quanfu like his younger brother, so he is very meticulous in the investigation of his husband's character and ability.

Fortunately, those two gentlemen didn't have any temperament of arrogance, and they were allowed to be investigated by Pei Xiaoyao, but in the end, the two gentlemen were still left behind.

Today Pei Xiaoyao got up early and didn't have to go out, so he took the opportunity to think about Yang Quanfu's kung fu, but it was different from when he was in Taoyuan Village before. is fully applicable.

Yang Fengxian smiled and watched him draw eyebrows for herself: "Then the gentleman said, how about letting the younger brother take the exam for the number one scholar?"

Pei Xiaoyao thought about it very seriously and said: "It is possible. Looking at the situation that Quanfu has now, it is not impossible to get the number one in the exam. Why don't we let Quanfu try his hand in the autumn exam this year and see if he can do it?" middle."

Quanfu's exam this year is just the provincial exam. If you pass the rural exam, you will be a Tongsheng, who is at the same level as their fourth uncle Yang Jiali. After the rural exam, there will be the county exam, followed by scholar, Juren, and then the Beijing exam, etc. etc.

Therefore, if a family wants to cultivate a scholar, the manpower, material and financial resources spent are not ordinary.

But Yang Fengxian doesn't care much now, what she cares more about is whether the younger brother is willing to take the road of scientific research.She knew how erratic her own glory and wealth came.

Compared with those bachelors who were steadily admitted to the Beijing middle school, her success can be said to be despised by these people-she has not experienced decades of hard study, and she was granted a county seat just by virtue of some researched agricultural products. The seat of the Lord.

And she is not like the rich and powerful family in Beijing, her family background is rich and profound, her status is like a castle in the air, she looks beautiful and luxurious, but in fact she is in danger of being overthrown.

If there is a scholar in the family who is a close minister of the emperor, and then passed on from generation to generation, it will naturally be supported by her current status, and the two complement each other.

But Yang Fengxian didn't want to sacrifice her own brother for the so-called power. What she cared about was whether Yang Quanfu wanted to do it, not whether she wanted Yang Quanfu to do it.

So Yang Fengxian said: "Since he has this ability, he still has to ask Quanfu himself. If he just wants to broaden his knowledge, then the imperial examination is not that important. If he wants to become a courtier, then the imperial examination is not so important." It's very important, it depends on what he wants."

Pei Xiaoyao put down the snail in his hand, looked at his wife's Liu Yemei, and nodded with satisfaction: "Okay, it's all up to you. Sure enough, you are very different."

Yang Fengxian tilted her head and asked, "What?"

He smiled slightly, with warm eyes: "Not everyone. When you are in your current position, you will still care about whether your brother wants it, not whether you want it or not. There are many people who were very upright before they came into contact with power, but after they got in touch with power, When you have power, you become insatiable. I am so glad you are not such a person."

Yang Fengxian also laughed: "You still talk about me, don't you? I have been a national teacher for so many years and I have never been greedy for the so-called power."

Pei Xiaoyao laughed and said: "Really, then you didn't hear that the former national teacher was given death because of plotting to usurp the throne?"

Yang Fengxian looked at him seriously: "I believe this is not the real reason, you will not be such a person."

Pei Xiaoyao was stunned for a moment, Yang Fengxian deliberately squinted at him before smiling and said, "You are so lazy, how could you take on such a labor-intensive task, besides, if you really want to do it, you won't be discovered by Emperor Yuan Jing. He changed his name a long time ago, too."

"Hush—" Pei Xiaoyao looked around seriously and said, "Don't talk nonsense, don't forget, Pinghuan..."

Yang Fengxian thought that they were going to help Brother Gu win the throne, so he stuck out his tongue and made a gesture of sewing his mouth shut.

How could she have forgotten that the house of the ruthless emperor is the most important. If elder brother Gu hears this, there may be some misunderstanding.

Qingshuang knocked on the door and said: "Master, Lord, breakfast is ready."

Pei Xiaoyao didn't want to talk about this topic again, so he raised his voice and said, "Bring it up."

Then came the maidservants in plain dresses, carrying delicate dishes one after another.

The dishes of the Great Shu Kingdom have always been famous for their exquisiteness, so the dishes are not too large.It’s just a simple dish of tofu mixed with shallots, yellow millet porridge, crystal siu mai made by Chef Yanghu, fried crab roe, and a stack of finely chopped pickled radishes.

At the beginning, Yang Fengxian was very disapproving of side dishes like pickled radishes. Isn't this just pickled radishes, her mother can make them, but when she ate them for the first time, she almost doubted whether she was eating radishes.

This little pickled radish is made of the juiciest and tenderest radish, the sweet radish heart, marinated with rime sugar, Pinggu soy sauce, and the chef's secret nine-nine 81 sauces, just these The cost of materials is as high as a hundred taels of silver.

This kind of pickled radish is said to be pickled radish, but only these dignitaries can afford it.

Besides, the tofu mixed with shallots is nothing unusual, but the tofu was only sold after Yang Fengxian gave it to her second aunt Peach Blossom, and there was no such thing as tofu before.

It is not something ordinary people can afford to buy tofu and make it into such a daily dish.

Yang Fengxian also knew before that the second aunt's family made the water-milled tofu and built several new houses, but the husband was innocent and conceived the crime. She felt that if such a good thing was hidden in her hands, sooner or later she would find it. One day when he was in trouble for himself, he found a big family in the catering business and sold this recipe.
