Chapter 1353 Regret
"The imperial examination is already difficult. In the whole of Chu, how many students can pass the examination every three years, or even Jinshi. Do you really think that with the special case of your third uncle, it is so easy to pass the examination?"
Chu Qingxiang's smile froze at what she said, and she was speechless for a long time. She did see that Uncle Xie and Master Xie's family passed the Jinshi exam, and she felt that it was not difficult to get into the Jinshi exam.
You know, Song Lu is about the same age as the young master of the Xie family. He is a young and promising scholar, so why can't he continue the exam.
"Both Ah Sheng and Ah Zhang have passed the examination as a scholar." Chu Qingxiang murmured.
Ms. Zhang's mood is a bit complicated at the moment, she didn't expect her daughter to be so naive.
"So, you just asked Song Lu to take the imperial examination as a matter of course, thinking that if you gave him all the money to take the imperial examination, he should be admitted as a matter of course?"
Chu Qingxiang frowned: "Shouldn't it be like this?"
Ms. Zhang held back her anger. No wonder people could hear people saying that Mrs. Huang scolded Haruka for being high-minded and making her son feel bad.
But at this moment, she really can no longer blame the Song family for all her mistakes.
"What do you think about Ah Sheng, can he be admitted to Jinshi?" Zhang changed his question.
Chu Qingxiang nodded: "Of course, the eldest brother is not very old. He can be admitted to the scholar now, which shows his strength. What's more, there is a wife invited by the third uncle in the capital. It is very likely that he will pass the exam."
"Then what do you think of Zhang?"
"My cousin should be stupid, I can't guarantee that, but with such good educational resources, it shouldn't be a problem to get into Juren."
Ms. Zhang understood, followed her thinking and said, "So you think that as long as you have a good master, you can be admitted to Jinshi, right?"
"nature."
"Then I would like to ask, is your eldest brother the only one who has a good teacher? Why did the other students who have studied in colleges since childhood and came from wealthy families fail the exams?"
Chu Qingxiang took it for granted: "Of course it's because they didn't work hard enough, so it's okay for them to fail the exam."
"Mom, I know what you're going to say. If Song Lu fails the exam, it means he didn't work hard enough. I lived frugally at home and broke one copper coin into two flowers just to make him a Jinshi. If he doesn't If you work hard, you will be sorry for my efforts.”
Ms. Zhang looked at Chu Qingxiang as if she was looking at a stranger. She never thought that her daughter could say such exaggerated words. No wonder Song Lu was stressed.
No wonder the second sibling said that Zhang didn't need to be too self-motivated in his request to marry a daughter-in-law, just be down-to-earth and work hard.
"You're putting pressure on Song Lu by doing this!" Zhang was so angry that she wanted to scold her, but she was afraid that her voice would be too loud, and it would be embarrassing for others to hear.
Chu Qingxiang's expression was very calm: "Mother, this is not pressure, a man should be self-motivated."
"Song Lu is already self-motivated enough. Your father went to Fucheng to see it in person. He doesn't even go out of school during the holidays. He studies every day. He is a well-known nerd in Fucheng College." Mrs. Zhang couldn't help but help her son-in-law. In a word.
Chu Qingxiang's complexion fluctuated slightly, and then she became tough: "But he still didn't pass the Juren or even the Jinshi."
"That is to say, you only look at the result, not the process, right?" Mrs. Zhang expressed some sympathy for Song Lu.
Also a little confused, these years, she gave Qingxiang money in private, and then went to Song's house to support her, whether it was right or not.
