Rebirth of the little landlady

Chapter 249 Su Qiusheng's Life Goal
Afterwards, Yuan Bao looked at Su Qiusheng with bright eyes, "I believe in you, you will definitely be able to pass the entrance examination in two years' time!"

Su Qiusheng's face flushed red again, but his voice was firm, "No, the master asked me to take the exam two years later, because he hoped that I could pass the 'Little Three Yuan' exam."

Yuan Bao was stunned, she was a little confused.

Su Qiusheng's explanation was very brief, "If the county examination, the government examination, and the hospital examination can all get the first place, that is, the first place, then it is called 'Little Three Yuan'!"

Yuan Bao took a breath, and nothing else mattered. In her impression, the "fu" of this dynasty is equivalent to the "province" of the previous life, and isn't the first place in the college entrance examination the same as the number one student in the college entrance examination of the whole province in the previous life? ?At that time, the college entrance examination was taken every year, but now it is taken twice in three years, which is really too difficult!

Yuan Bao knew that Su Qiusheng had a big heart, but she didn't expect Su Qiusheng to have such a big heart, so she couldn't help persuading, "Qiusheng——"

But as soon as she opened her mouth, Su Qiusheng interrupted her, "I know, my husband also said that although this is an opportunity, we should not be obsessed with it."

The truth is correct, but how can Yuan Bao rest assured?In the end, I still asked, "Are you sure you won't cry or get sick if you don't pass the exam?!"

"Yuanbao, when did that happen? We've all grown up!" Su Qiusheng became a little annoyed.

Yuan Bao thought, when, wasn't it last year? !Besides, even if he took the exam three years later, Su Qiusheng was only 16 years old, he was just a kid, and he set his goal so high, he couldn't help sighing, "But it's too difficult, it's exhausting you." What can I do?!"

Su Qiusheng said, "It's not difficult. In addition to the 'small three yuan', there are also the 'big three yuan' in the provincial examination, general examination, and palace examination. "Lianzhong six yuan", compared to "little three yuan", is really nothing, and when it comes to the capital test, I don't even have the face to mention it!"

The rural examinations are the same as the college examinations, they are all taken in various prefectures and cities, and those who pass the examination are called Juren, while the general examination and the palace examination are both taken in the capital city, and the Jinshi who passed the general examination will not be selected as a candidate in the palace examination, that is, These Jinshi are ranked and divided into four grades. The first three grades are called the first, second and third grades, and those behind are called "same Jinshi".

Seeing Su Qiusheng's familiarity with all kinds of "Yuan" and the eager eyes when he said it, Yuan Bao's heart sank and sank, but she didn't dare to offend Su Qiusheng anymore, so she had to ask around, "Then you Tell me, how many people have won these 'dollars'?!"

Su Qiusheng pondered slowly, "According to the history books, there seems to be two of these 'six yuan in a row'...but at least there is...one, yes, I'm sure, there is one!"

Yuan Baohan has come down, and how many dynasties and years of history have it been "recorded in the history books"? !And "there must be one", she knew that this thing is definitely not that easy to test, she said sharply, "Don't tell me those useless things, just tell me, this dynasty, how many people are there?" Pass?!"

Su Qiusheng replied calmly, "There is no one!" Not only did he have "six yuan" and "big three yuan", but he didn't even have "little three yuan". That's why Shi Yuandao suggested that he get the limelight so that he can make money in his official career. Get capital.

"Ahem," Yuan Bao became excited, "Isn't it difficult to not have one?! Su Qiusheng, let me tell you, whether it's getting rich or getting ahead, everything must be based on the safety of the family. , I asked you to study for the scientific examination. I thought it would be icing on the cake, not something out of the fire. Our family has not yet reached the point where you can’t pass the imperial examination. What kind of 'yuan' are you going to test these messy things?! Let me tell you, I don't agree!"

Seeing Yuan Bao, Su Qiusheng was really anxious, and quickly said what he was most unwilling to say, "Well, Yuan Bao, in fact, the imperial examination is not all based on strength..."

Yuan Bao immediately became quiet, and the voice became quieter. It wasn't at 01:30, "Why, here... tell me, how much money do you need?" He said very proudly, "As long as it can be solved with money, it's not a big deal!" In order to fulfill Su Qiusheng's dream, Yuan Bao would rather spend hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to shoot those corrupt officials to death, she doesn't care!
Yuan Bao suddenly thought of another question, "Is there anything wrong?" After thinking about it, "It's okay, even if something happens, I will let Ni Yuze fish you out!"

After Yuan Bao's words were finished, Su Qiusheng immediately changed his face, "Yuan Bao, what are you talking about? Who do you think I am?!"

"Uh..." Yuan Bao looked at Su Qiusheng's upright face, and felt that he really seemed to be suspected of teaching bad children, so he quickly covered up, "Qiusheng, don't you know how much I weigh? This is about reading. The thing is, I know ten senses and nine senses at all—I don’t know anything! But you still speak so vaguely, what do you make me think?!” Fucking low and showing weakness, this is what Yuan Bao just summed up to deal with Su Qiu Sheng's method.

This method is quite effective, Su Qiusheng's sense of responsibility and patience as an elder brother in front of his younger siblings arises spontaneously, and he explains it in great detail. These things were analyzed by Shi Yuandao for them, and the Su brothers are not at such a high level at all.

The reason why this dynasty doesn't even have a "small three yuan" until now is that the main responsibility rests with the late emperor. The late emperor was a warrior through and through. Fifty years ago, in this era, there are three whole generations. If a scholar is so aggrieved, he doesn't even want to take the essay exam. Who cares about whether "Yuan" is not "Yuan"?

Take Sujia Village as an example. There are three families who have opened martial arts gyms before, but Liang Pinzheng is the highest level. It went well.

What about those who can read and write?It is so rare. In such a big Sujia Village, let alone a scholar, there is only one Tongsheng, Su Chunsheng, who accounts for only one in a few thousand. This is still a wealthy village. In some places, there may not be tens of thousands of Tongsheng. there is one!
In order to better get the country out of the predicament, he has vigorously selected literati, fostered civic officials, and expanded Enke for the sake of governance. Scholars who have been suppressed for a long time have sprung up like mushrooms after a spring rain. Entering the official career through the imperial examination, he wants to become famous and honor his ancestors.

However, the emperor's strength was really limited when he came to the throne. How could the big crocodiles who originally represented the military attache group be willing to give up their power like this? !All kinds of methods were used to the extreme, and under the counterattack, many new civil servants and top students who had just been promoted fell to the ground one after another.

This bloody and cruel battle for power finally ended with the emperor's victory, but no one can tell how many civil servants and students paid for it with their lives and futures.

Yuan Bao immediately thought of Shi Yuandao's two sons. No wonder Shi Yuandao tried his best to stop them at first, but later refused to let anyone rescue them. Just imagine, how could others help when even the emperor couldn't do anything at that time?
Shi Yuandao, what an old fritter!
"Up to now, the emperor has already shaken the world, and the day of scholars' success has come. It's just that what happened in the past few years not only caused heavy losses to scholars, but also left many scholars with lingering fears, especially those from a scholarly family. Years, the more likely the high school is, the more timid they are, and they may not come out for reference. Therefore, if you want to win triple yuan, this is definitely an opportunity. Unfortunately, my strength is too weak, so I can only try "little triple yuan" That's all." Su Qiusheng said with a little regret.

Yuan Bao glared at Su Qiusheng unhappily, "You can do it! Since the opportunity is so good, why doesn't Mr. Shi let his two grandsons take the exam?! His family is really a scholarly family, and he personally It’s taught, I heard that they are enlightened at the age of three, how could it be worse than you?!”

Su Qiusheng admitted frankly, "The two senior brothers are naturally stronger than me, but their family background is not as good as mine. The widowed mother and young brother are waiting for them to take care of in the capital. After three years, the exhaustion and expense of rushing back and forth for the exam, how can I delay it for a few years if I want to?" In fact, Su Qiusheng will have the opportunity to take the exam next year or the year after, but he has to wait until three years later. luxury.

Of course Yuan Bao knew about the situation of Shi's family, and when he thought that they would have to pay Ni Yuze for the travel expenses to the capital, he was at a loss for words.

But Su Qiusheng didn't finish his sentence, "Besides, they are not as lucky as me. Their household registration is in Ningnan Prefecture. It is too difficult to test the chief case. It is said that the chief case of our Anping Prefecture has arrived in Ningnan Prefecture. I don’t have any confidence in getting to the top [-], and in the entire court, only the Juren of Ningnan Prefecture can’t go to the capital to take the exam!”

Yuan Bao knew this.

Ningnan Mansion is the largest mansion in the whole dynasty, and it is also the most populous and densest mansion. It is also the most affluent mansion. It has gone through several dynasties without war.

Because of this, the number of scholars recruited by Ningnan Prefecture each time is three times that of other prefectures, but even so, Ningnan Prefecture still has the highest level of candidates, and many senior civilian officials in the court are from Ningnan Prefecture.The literati in Ningnan Mansion were so arrogant that they talked about it when they had nothing to do, so that a "blind scientific researcher" like Yuan Bao knew it.

That's why Su Qiusheng said that even if he passed the "Little Sanyuan" in Anping Mansion, he would not dare to mention it in the capital test, otherwise he would be ridiculed. so amazing!

"Ah—" Yuan Bao suddenly thought, "Or you and Chunsheng will both come to Ningnan Mansion to go to school!"

Su Qiusheng immediately shook his head, "It's not necessary, the gentlemen of Ningnanfu Academy are not as good as Mr Shi!"

The academy is a higher-level institution than the school, and generally speaking, only scholars are accepted, but Yuan Bao guessed that if the Su brothers really wanted to go, Ni Yuze must have a way!

But Su Qiusheng's words made more sense, Yuan Bao patted his forehead and thought, isn't that right, that guy Shi Yuandao is amazing, besides, they are all here, what will the family do? !Decided not to mess around with ideas anymore.

Su Qiusheng made the final decision, "After all, I will take the imperial examination three years later. Regardless of whether the 'Xiao Sanyuan' can pass the exam, I will not give up the rural examination. To be honest, no matter what the score is, I don’t believe I don’t even have the qualifications to take part in the examination?!” This means that no one can stop him, and his goal is actually Jinshi!

Well, Yuan Bao nodded, such a goal is not bad, at least he won't be silent for too long because of the defeat of "Little Three Yuan", and he is also very clear about his own strength.

Yuan Bao was persuaded by Su Qiusheng.

Just after putting down the subject of the scientific examination, Su Qiusheng immediately brought up the old matter again, "Yuanbao, I still don't understand, why don't you go home?"

If it is said that Su Qiusheng was still worried about Yuan Bao being monitored when he first met and did not dare to discuss this issue too deeply with Yuan Bao, then Yuan Bao mentioned Ni Yuze's behavior twice in the conversation just now, which completely dispelled Su Qiusheng. Qiu Sheng's concerns, you must know that every time Yuan Bao mentioned Ni Yuze, he would call him by his first name and surname without any taboo.

When Su Qiusheng asked this question for the first time, Yuan Bao said it briefly, not because he was perfunctory, but because he felt that he couldn't understand a sentence or two. Now that Su Qiusheng asks again, Yuan Bao has no need to hide anything, and she It never occurred to me to hide it from Su Qiusheng.

"Qiusheng, let me tell you, my current monthly income is more than 20 taels of silver." Yuan Bao saw that Su Qiusheng's eyes widened in disbelief, so he knew that Su Chunsheng didn't tell him about it, for fear that he might not listen. I understand, and continued, "And it may continue to increase in the future. Even if I don't do anything every day from now on, this income will still exist. As long as the clothes don't fall down, my income will always be there. "

Su Qiusheng had a hard time digesting this information. He knew that Yuanbao was good at making money, but he never thought that Yuanbao could earn so much. Not to mention that this income will be there in the future, it will be gone from now on. These have already been earned. Money, I'm afraid you can't spend it all in a few lifetimes, right? !
But Su Qiusheng quickly gathered his thoughts, "You mean, you are staying now, not for money?" He was very nervous, "Then what is it for?" Problems that money can't solve are usually more serious.

Yuan Bao didn't answer but instead asked, "If I tell you again, I still have the ability to let Chunsheng win the imperial examination, and after that, his official career will be smooth, and with the money I have on hand, then let me ask you, Qiusheng, how can you take the imperial examination? Do you still take the exam? Do you still want to pass the 'Xiao Sanyuan'?!"

Su Qiusheng replied quite quickly, "Of course!"

Yuan Bao nodded, "Yes! Because that's your goal in life!" Pushing open the window of the private room facing the street, since it was only on the second floor, passers-by could be seen clearly, "Qiu Sheng, look, the bustling streets Crowd, how many people are wearing the clothes made by me? One after another... Do you know how happy I am every time I see them?! And," Yuan Bao looked at Su Qiusheng as if passing through The heavy time, back to the past, it is not long, but it seems like a lifetime, "Do you still remember that in Qing'an County, we also watched those people with the products of the Chinese Zodiac passing by one by one on the road. At that time, we were What mood?!"

Su Qiusheng was stunned.

Yuan Bao smiled wryly, "As soon as I found out I was watching those, you and Chunsheng immediately came to persuade me, fearing that I would become obsessed with money and something would happen again, I will comfort you in turn and tell you that I am satisfied, yes The income is very satisfactory, after all we just bought a house in the county, you and Chunsheng can take the whole family to study!"

Su Qiusheng's expression became tangled, he seemed to understand what Yuan Bao wanted to express.

Yuan Bao suddenly stood up, as if to let the cold wind from the window blow away her long-accumulated depression, "But I am unwilling! Why? My talent should be recognized, loved, and passed on by more people. But can’t?! Not only can’t, but no one even mentions it?! Why, I have created such a beautiful art, but I can’t get the respect of others, and even my profession has to be changed to a slave. Can it be realized?! I have to be coerced for such a little money, is this fair?! I obviously have so many good ideas, but I can only hide them because I am afraid of being coveted by others! Who knows when I When I blacked out my beloved design drawings, my heart kept bleeding!" After the establishment of Nishang, the blowout of Yuanbao's creation had a great relationship with this long-term pressure!

Yuan Bao pulled Su Qiusheng past him, "Look, look again, how many people are still using various items with zodiac patterns, but you go and ask, how many of those items come from Qing'an Ni's family? And who knows, they were actually designed by my Yuan Bao!"

Su Qiusheng looked at Yuan Bao who was still in agitation, and felt as if he had overturned the five-flavored bottle in his heart, "Yuan Bao, isn't it, if we are stronger, we can protect you, we can..."

Yuan Bao knew what Su Qiusheng was going to say, so she closed the window, calmed down, and interrupted Su Qiusheng, "It's useless! No matter how good you are, can you compare to Ni Yuze?" In fact, there was still half a sentence that Yuan Bao didn't say. That is, wouldn't even Ni Yuze still be exploited by the emperor?There is no absolute fairness in the world at all, but he changed his words, "That is accumulated through the hard work of several generations! If everything goes well, our grandchildren may be able to get such treatment!"

Su Qiusheng became anxious all of a sudden, "So, you don't want to go home! Because Mr. Ze can provide you with everything, so that you will not be wronged again!" He almost yelled, completely ignoring what the guards outside thought, It's not that he couldn't think of it, but that he was going crazy, and now he can't wait to fight people desperately!

Yuan Bao looked at Su Qiusheng quietly, and asked softly, "Chunsheng must not have asked you to ask me these words." He said affirmatively.

Su Qiusheng paused, and Yuan Bao continued, "Not only will he not let you ask me, even he himself will not come to question me like this, just because he believes in me!" A sudden smile appeared on Yuan Bao's face. , as if seeing the person she cared about the most in the world.
