Chapter 273 Cherish Talent
Nongmen mother-in-law's imperial destiny main text volume Chapter 273 Xicai Changzhi is young and the most hopeful to take the junior three yuan exam. Pingzhou City has attracted a lot of attention, and Zhou Shuren, who is a father, also follows It's on fire.
Especially the neighbors who have always looked down on Zhou's family, they are very diligent when they come to the door, asking how to teach their children inside and outside the words.
Zhulan felt refreshed in her heart, and at the same time, she saw clearly, hey, the ancients were also quite thick-skinned, not to mention the cold reception of Zhulan's visits, as warm as neighbors for many years.
Zhulan didn't forget that when they moved here this time, there were more children in the family, and it was very lively. How could the neighbors across the wall not hear them, and they often gossiped about the Zhou family!
It's not that Zhulan doesn't hold grudges. Anyway, I don't know what to ask. After registering the door several times, the neighbors don't come. Why didn't you tell me? Don't you know?
A few days after the hospital examination, Pingzhou City opened a gambling game, and it was still a small three-yuan bet.
Zhulan didn't panic at first, but she couldn't help her family Dong and Xuemei to panic. The two kept talking, and Zhulan also panicked.
Zhulan was flustered and wanted to keep her daughter-in-law and daughter safe, so she could only talk about Zhou Shuren at night, and Zhulan talked too much, which made Zhou Shuren lose his mind!
The college entrance examination was over, Zhulan breathed a sigh of relief, it was over, she was more nervous and tired than her own college entrance examination!
The college test results were released, and before the person who announced the good news came, the servant from Dong's sister's house came and announced the good news in advance, "Our master asked the younger one to wait for the results early in the morning, and come as soon as the results come out." Good news, Mr. Changzhi won the first place, Lin Sheng, and Mr. Changlian also passed the twelfth place."
Dong grinned, "Mother, my husband is a scholar."
Zhulan took out a tael of silver dime from her purse and gave it to the servant, "Thank you for your hard work, take this to drink tea."
The servant took it with both hands, and now he is going to keep the list. Many people are vying to go. They all know that Pingzhou City will give out three yuan. Even if it is not a small three yuan, they are also small talents. .
If it wasn't for the housekeeper's nephew, he still wouldn't be able to get the job!
Mrs. Dong also hurriedly took out a silver coin and handed it to the servant, "Take this silver coin to drink and warm your body."
The servant still remembered the master's instructions, if the wife and brother-in-law pass by, please invite someone to come over, "The master said, three days later, the family has prepared wine and food, and invite Master Zhou Xiucai, Mr. Changlian and Lin Sheng to come over for a drink."
Dong's heart is proud,
This time they didn't go to the door on the pole, but were invited to go there.
Zhulan replied, "I will be there in three days."
"The little one will go back first."
Not long after the servant left, the person who announced the good news arrived, and the Zhou family gave birth to another son. Zhulan prepared a lot of happy money, not only for the good news, but also for nearby congratulators.
After that, the Zhou family's good news continued. Jiang Sheng's ranking was higher than Chang Lian's, sixth place, Xuemei cried happily, and kept saying, "Finally passed, finally passed the exam."
Chang Lian was the last one to announce the good news. The other two relatives were unlucky and they got the top 20 this year. One of them was twenty-five and the other thirty. Just no luck.
However, the mentality of the two Ming characters is good. They are envious, but they are also confident that they will pass the exam next time.
The Zhou family has produced three scholars today, and the whole street is a sensation, especially the youngest scholar. The Zhou family counts the son-in-law, and there are four scholars in one family, and the three are not very old. Now that there is a Juren, everyone knows that the Zhou family is no longer just a family of scholars.
Zhulan didn't wait for Zhou Shuren to come back with her son and son-in-law, but entertained people who kept coming to congratulate her.
Mrs. Wu and Li also came, "Congratulations."
Zhulan's mouth was a little stiff when she smiled, "We are happy together."
Mrs. Wu and Li are envious of Mrs. Yang. The Zhou family has two more sons in their early years. The Zhou family will be different in the future, and their Wu family will still rely on their eldest grandson!
At noon, the Zhou family didn't have a meal, and wave after wave of congratulatory and curious people were sent away.
In the afternoon, Zhou Shuren came back with his two sons and son-in-law. Zhou Shuren's feet felt windy. Today, he has a sense of accomplishment as a father. No matter how many bitter words he faces, he is also happy. Today, Changzhi will grow up for him. It's a big face.
Zhulan laughed, "Look, I made you happy."
"Have it?"
"Of course, you never closed your mouth when you smiled."
Zhou Shuren laughed, "I'm really happy, Xu Jinshi wants to see two boys tomorrow."
These two boys are lucky, they picked him and Zhulan as parents for nothing, changed their fate, and now they are in Xu Jinshi's eyes again!
Zhulan asked, "Didn't you say you saw Jiang Sheng?"
Zhou Shuren wiped his face and shook his head, "Xu Jinshi has an age limit for selecting apprentices. Jiang Sheng's age is over, and Jiang Sheng has to go back to the county. I wrote a letter to my in-laws to see that he became a scholar in Changlian. Our family has three students." For the sake of a scholar, I should be able to accept Jiang Sheng."
Zhulan, "I hope to accept Jiang Sheng. In-laws will take care of her in the future. We don't have to worry about Xuemei wherever we go."
"Yep."
At dinner in the evening, Jiang Sheng drank too much and held back for so many years. The pressure of so many years was just for the name of a scholar. He had experienced too much and cried when he drank too much.
Zhulan felt heartbroken when she heard Jiang Sheng laughing out loud. Jiang Sheng was not easy because of the name of a scholar, and the attitude of his parents changed. Fortunately, this year has passed. It will also get bigger and bigger.
Xuemei couldn't help wiping away her tears. She was the one who knew best how hard Mr. Xiang was. Now everything is fine, everything is over.
Early the next morning, Jiang Sheng felt embarrassed, "I apologized to Chang Lian and Chang Zhi because I broke the atmosphere of celebration yesterday."
Changlian quickly waved his hands, "Brother-in-law, don't say it here, my brother understands."
He really didn't care, but was glad that he passed.
Chang Zhi said: "We all understand that brother-in-law is crying with joy, how can we spoil the atmosphere?"
Jiang Sheng felt warm in his heart. The Yue family gave him warmth and support. Without the Yue family, there would be no Jiang Xiucai today. People must be content. He is very content now. As for whether he will be able to become a juren in the future, he is very tired after the great joy. I don't have the energy to support myself to take the Juren examination.
He wanted to wait for a few years, when someone from the Yue family became a Juren, it would not be too late for him to take the exam slowly, this time finally he didn't have to push himself so hard, he wanted to live a leisurely life.
After dinner, Zhou Shuren took his two sons to the academy.
Jiang Sheng was not envious either, instead he smiled and went out to shop with Xuemei.
The two boys of the Ming generation in the family were going home first, Zhou Shuren was not at home, Zhulan took Boss Zhou out of the house, and Zhulan brought back wine and cloth for the Zhou Wang family.
Mrs. Li also bought something for her parents to take home. As a thank you, Mrs. Li made meat buns for the two boys as dry food.
After seeing off the carriage, Zhulan felt relieved, she finally had nothing to worry about, she hadn't had a good rest these days, and was going back to catch up on sleep.
When Zhulan woke up, Zhou Shuren was lying on his side reading a book, Zhulan turned sideways, "Why did you come back so early?"
Zhou Shuren put down the book in his hand, "Xu Jinshi left Chang Zhi behind, and Chang Lian and I came back."
Zhulan regained her spirits, "Xu Jinshi accepted Changzhi?"
Zhou Shuren had already guessed that Changzhi would stay, "Changzhi has a clear mind and is dedicated to research. Xu Jinshi means that Changzhi has the potential to become everyone. Xu Jinshi loves talents, so he accepted Changzhi before I mentioned it." , and said that Changzhi is a talented scholar at the age of 13, and there is no need to take the provincial examination too early, even if Changzhi passes the exam, he is too young and will be easily missed, so it is better to stay in the academy and concentrate on studying."
Zhulan sighed, "Xu Jinshi has considered Changzhi very thoroughly."
Zhou Shuren hugged Zhulan, "Xu Jinshi is indifferent to fame and fortune, but he likes Changzhi more than Wu Ming. Moreover, Xu Jinshi has the habit of traveling around. He will take Changzhi to study around. Xu Jinshi will guide him hand in hand. will get the education that best suits him."
He can't give these things. He can teach Chang Lian, but he can't teach Chang Zhi, because his mind is utilitarian and impenetrable, and he has no artistic conception for books and poems.
Zhulan asked, "What about Changlian?"
It must be very disappointing, this kid doesn't say anything, but he is also eager to become a famous teacher in his heart.
