Chapter 112
Qiao Lianlian's expression changed immediately, "Why can't I take the test?"

Her eyes are sharp, like thorns.

The man was startled, and quickly turned his face away, "If you say you can't take the test, you can't take the test."

"The children's test is only divided by age, but I haven't heard that there are other requirements. Why don't you tell everyone why my son can't take this child's test." Qiao yelled angrily.

Han Zhao had reminded her when she came here that the next step might be a bit difficult.

Qiao Lianlian thought it was a clumsy kidnapping and assassination, but who knew it was actually a trick on the exam.

If Gu Cheng couldn't pass the Tongsheng Examination, he wouldn't be able to take the Scholar Examination in the future, and he wouldn't be able to pass the Jinshi, and the imperial examination would be considered over.

The other party will really draw the bottom line.

At this time, all the people around were people who had signed up for the Tongsheng Examination, and Qiao's repeated drinking seemed to have attracted everyone's attention.

"You, what are you talking about." The man was a little anxious, "If you say you are not allowed to take the test, you are not allowed to take the test. He is not qualified."

"If you are not qualified, you have to make it clear what you are not qualified for." Qiao Lianlian did not back down, "As long as you tell me what is wrong, we will not take the test. If you can't tell, just give the right card honestly!"

She has a straight spine and a magnificent momentum. Although she is a woman, she has already crushed the opponent.

Several people around couldn't help cheering.

Seeing this, the man showed a look of embarrassment between his brows.

Qiao Lianlian chased after the victory, "We came all the way to Anyang County to take the exam, and we sat in the carriage for a long time, but you rejected us without any reason. Could it be that you are bullying us ordinary people? Are you bullying us with no one behind us? Or, In Anyang County, there is no law of the king?"

As soon as Wang Fa comes out, who will fight for the front.

Qiao repeatedly took out such a heavy and dangerous word, startled the man, and quickly waved his hands, "No, of course not, no one bullied you."

"Then you sign up for us." She slapped a tael of silver on the table.

The man stared at her firmly.

Qiao Lianlian looked back without fear.

"Okay, okay, here it is." The man exhaled, and was finally defeated, wrote down Gu Cheng's name, and gave another pair of cards.

Qiao Lian connected this hard-won pair of cards and walked out with the two children.

When Han Mu came here, he was very jumpy, but the incident just now made him a little silent.

Gu Cheng was originally silent, but now he became even more silent.

Knowing that these two children are smart, Qiao Lianlian sighed, "It's so difficult to get a pair, and there may be hardships in the next exam."

"Mother, don't worry, the names are all blurred when grading the papers. As long as we can take the exam, they will try to embarrass us later, so we can't." Gu Cheng was very calm.

Not because he was sure about the fairness of the exam, but because he knew that someone would definitely come.

"That's good." Captain Qiao Lian breathed a sigh of relief, "Then let's book a hotel."

It is a long way from Gujia Village to Anyang County, and it takes at least one day to go back and forth. This exam has to be taken five times, or every other day. It will take more than ten days, and you have to stay in Anyang County for food and lodging.

Ordinarily, the county examination for the child's birth examination should be held in Xieyang County.

But who made Xieyang County too backward, and the number of candidates was not enough, so they simply went to Anyang County and took the county exam with the candidates from Anyang County.

It's just that those who are far away from home have to suffer from grievances in the inn for a while.

"Don't worry, Mrs. Qiao." Unexpectedly, Han Mu waved his hand very proudly, "My father gave me the key, and our Han family still has some assets in Anyang County."

He looked back at a guard of the Han family.

The guards of the Han family nodded and led them to an alley.

The first three are the real estate purchased by Han Zhao in Anyang County.

A small two-entry courtyard has just three rooms, and the utensils and bedding are all complete, but it has not been entered for a long time, so it needs to be dried in the sun.

Qiao Lian asked the two children to read in the yard, and she went in to take out the quilts to dry, wipe down the tables, chairs and cabinets, and finally went to the kitchen to tidy up.

By the time all this was done, it was already dark.

In addition to the two young ones, there are six guards who need to eat.

The journey was really tiring, so Qiao Lianlian took the time to be lazy and asked the guards to go outside to buy some food, and the mother ate some and then rested.

The next day was still the registration time for the children's examination.

On the third day, the exam officially started.

Qiao rested again and again, and prepared soft snacks, water bags for the two children early in the morning, and so on.

Although the Tongsheng Examination was not as difficult as the Jinshi Examination, it still took a long time to stay inside. When I was hungry at noon, I could only take care of two meals by myself, and no one provided food.

Qiao Lianlian was afraid that the two candidates would not eat well, so he specially made pastries that would not be unpalatable even if they were cold.

Then the two students were sent to the gate of the Gongyuan.

Anyang County is located in a relatively remote area, quite far from the capital city. Although the county town is well developed, the surrounding counties are not too prosperous, and they have to come here even with the county exam.

For a while, the Gongyuan was considered to be full of traffic and crowded.

Qiao Lianlian gave the two burdens to the two children respectively, and then touched the eldest son's head, "Relax, it doesn't matter if you fail the exam, we can live in business."

Of course, the imperial examination can have a better future, but if it is not that material, there is no need to force it.

No matter how you live, it is a lifetime.

Gu Cheng nodded slightly, his eyes deeply forgot his mother's glance, and entered the Gongyuan together with Han Mu.

Qiao Lianlian stood outside, watching the two children's backs disappear, and then sighed a little.

She got used to taking care of a few children every day, and suddenly got her own free time, and she didn't know what to do for a while.

After thinking about it, she simply wandered around Anyang County.

Several guards of the Han family wanted to follow her, but she declined, "The elder brothers should find a teahouse near the Gongyuan to rest. When Han Mu and Gu Cheng come out, I will go shopping alone."

"But ma'am, your safety..." A guard hesitated a little.

"Don't worry, there are people coming and going in this county, and it's impossible for someone to kill me." Qiao Lian smiled and waved his hands.

Several guards found a place to sit down and let her go alone.

What Qiao Lianlian didn't know was that after she left the Gongyuan, two people pointed at her back.

"It's this girl. It's so fierce. The superiors told me not to give the pair named Gu Cheng, but she insisted on forcing me to give it."

"Don't be afraid, so what if you pass the exam. There are five exams, and there are plenty of opportunities." The other person chuckled, "Don't worry, the young master of the magistrate's family said he wants to do it himself."

It's not a matter of time before she offends the magistrate and doesn't know it.

For a moment, both of them laughed.
