In the middle of November, the rice should be harvested at home. Looking at the heavy ears of rice, the family was happy to blossom. However, because Ling Jinghan was going to the county for an examination, Ling Jingxuan did not stare at it in person. Instead, he gave everything to his father, Ling Chenglong and Zheng Da Laozhou. He told them to hire more people and harvest them as soon as possible. After all, the weather is getting more and more It's cold. In case of strong wind and heavy rain, the grain of dozens of acres will suffer.
On the afternoon of the 16th, according to Yan Yi's information, the eunuch who announced the edict was still in the state capital. It took at least two or three days to arrive. Ling Jingxuan resolutely decided to accompany Ling Jinghan to the county examination with Yan Shengrui. Several small buns heard that the second uncle was going to take the exam, and they were also fighting to go. There was no way. Ling Jingxuan could only take the three small buns with their schoolboy.
I don't know whether it's because he wants to go to the city or to encourage Ling Jinghan. The kids all put on new cotton padded jackets, and their black faced gold silk boots are brand-new. On the contrary, Ling Jinghan is very relaxed in his plain cotton. He is completely prepared and ready.
"Jinghan, we are all pointing at you. We must do well in the exam and fight for our parents and big brother!"
Before he left, Ling Wang's wife held him talking and reciting incessantly. He had been listening to the same words from a few days ago, and his ears were almost rising. His eyes for help could not help but turn to the elder brother on the other side. He didn't know how to reply. Did he want to tell them that he didn't just do well in the exam, but went for the first place?
"Niang, you should not be nervous in the exam. You are not trying to exert pressure on Jing Han. It's just a child's test. With Jing Peng's literary talent, you can't catch it?"
Receiving his brother's eyes for help, it's not too early to look at the sky. Ling Jingxuan pulls her away so that she won't cry to them. In his subconscious mind, the children's test is the graduation examination of primary school. Jing Han is 14, how can he fail? Even if he was a scholar who took the exam after the new year, he didn't have any worries. The reason why he went with him this time was mainly because Jing Han took the exam for the first time to give him courage. Although he didn't seem to need to come again, he also wanted to visit the Baiyun Pavilion branch.
"Yes, yes, look at my mouth. Jinghan, don't be nervous. It doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam. It's a big deal that we'll take another exam next year."
The words became too fast. Ling Jingxuan and his brothers could not help laughing and crying. Ling Chenglong, who came back from the field, took his daughter-in-law in his arms: "come on, you can let the child play by himself. The literary talent of Jing Han and Zhang Ju people of the academy are praised repeatedly. It's no problem."
After all, after reading more than a few years, Ling Chenglong is quite confident in his son's literary talent, and he is not too nervous at present.
"Well, be careful on the way, and come back as soon as you finish the exam, eh?"
Nodding his head, Ling Wang's eyes were red. Looking back, he told Ling Jingxuan: "Jingxuan, take care of his younger brother, and do more food for him in the morning. The boy's test is all day long. Don't be hungry. And ah, now it's cold. Put on more clothes. In case of fainting in the examination room, what should be done? No, I think I'll go with you
With that, Ling Wang tried to push Ling Chenglong aside. Ling Jingxuan and his brothers took a look at each other and turned around to get into the carriage: "Niang, don't go. Dad, take your mother back quickly. We'll come back tomorrow after the exam."
After a while, the two carriages left side by side, and the three brothers went to the county.
"Well, the children have a sense of propriety. You always talk like that. It's strange that they are not bothered. Or do you think Jingxuan won't take care of his younger brother? Will Jing Peng support his brother? Is Jinghan unreliable? When the child is old, let's let go and do what we can to kill the time
Don't say, in this kind of thing, Ling Chenglong is more open-minded than Ling Wang's, and his ideas are even similar to some enlightened parents in modern society. When the child is older, sometimes too much parental care will only get the opposite effect, causing the children to be bored. If they let go appropriately, they will not let go all of them. They can help the children where they need, on the contrary, they can maintain their parents Love.
"You can say it!"
Red eyes glared at him. Ling Wang crossed him and took LAN and Zheng to his sister Wang Jinyu. Now she is a woman in charge. She is much busier than her sister and has enriched a lot. As for the left Ling Chenglong, he scratched his head foolishly and went to the field. The workers are stepping up harvesting rice.
When the two carriages arrived at the county town, it was almost dark in winter. When they settled down in Xinyuan restaurant, it was almost dark. After dinner, the party had a rest early. The next morning, Ling Jingxuan went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast. The chefs of Xinyuan knew him and knew that his second brother was going to have an exam today. They all met him first Hi, Ling Jingxuan also smile reply one by one.
The breakfast was mainly light. Ling Jingxuan prepared a water bag of crescent moon spring water, boiled a few eggs, together with the spiced pork jerky brought from home, and asked him to take it to the examination room for lunch. Originally, he wanted to pack some steamed buns and steamed bread, but after thinking about it, Ling Jinghan's appetite has never been good. It's almost like having crescent moon spring water and eggs.It's still sunny today. It's impossible to say how warm it is. At least there is no cold wind. When they came to the examination room, a large group of people were gathered outside. A row of people were standing in the entrance of the examination room, wearing black bottomed clothes, jujube red waistcoat and high hat. Maybe it is because of the tolerance, or because the examination is not good for the students It's a sacred thing. Although there are many people on the scene, everyone is careful. No one dares to make a noise. People familiar with each other also communicate in a soft voice.
"Uncle, your basket, don't be nervous. We'll wait for you outside."
Lingwen brothers as like as two peas and Ling Jinghan, they handed him the bamboo basket full of food and ink and inkstone, and they did not forget to cheer him up. The two chapters had a similar face and a brilliant smile.
"Ha ha Thank you, but it's too cold to wait outside for the exam all day. You can go back first and leave Shuisheng alone here. "
One hand took the basket and the other touched them respectively. Ling Jinghan's face was full of indulgent smile. With the piercing sound of gongs and drums, the county magistrate, who had not yet returned, said a few words of encouragement. The candidates were ready to line up for the entrance. Ling Jinghan also took the basket and said goodbye to Ling Jingxuan and others: "elder brother, Rui brother, Jingpeng, I'll go first, you all Come back. "
Although Ling Jinghan's body has become much stronger after several months of exercise, it is inevitable that he is still a little slender among a group of adults. In particular, some people have beards all over their faces, and the young, beautiful and slender he is even more prominent.
"Take a good test. Don't be nervous. Just give full play to what you usually learn."
"It's just a boy's test. I don't think you should be a subject."
"Second brother, come on and answer slowly. Don't worry. We all believe in you."
"Second uncle, come on
"Second master, come on
Ling Jingxuan three people have said two words, the steamed buns and the servants of the family have also cheered him on. At this moment, the atmosphere is still a little different after all, Ling Jinghan agreed one by one before he went to line up with the bamboo basket.
"Don't worry, Jing Han's literary talent has even been appreciated by that man. He was a famous child prodigy in Beijing at that time."
Looking at Ling Jingxuan who seems a little worried, Yan Shengrui grabs his hand without any hesitation. In order to divert his attention, he simply suggests: "let's go to Baiyun Pavilion branch to earn money. Are you not going to take something back? We'll pick him up after lunch
"Don't worry. Wait until he gets in."
Ming Ming is not worried, and has not been nervous. At this time, Ling Jingxuan is abnormally anxious. Ling Jinghan, who has never left the crowd for a moment, finally knows why parents and relatives should join forces in the entrance examination for children's high school entrance examination in the 21st century. They are waiting outside the examination room. That kind of mood is not personal experience. It's really hard to understand.
"Big brother, you and brother Rui should take Xiaowen and them over first. I'll wait here with Shuisheng."
Ling Jingpeng seems to be aware of his nervousness and can't help but echo Yan Shengrui.
"Well? Well, you don't have to wait here all the time. When he goes in, you can come to Baiyun Pavilion and find us. "
Finally realized that he seemed to be too abnormal, Ling Jingxuan had to turn around. In case of infection with his younger brother who was about to take the exam, it would be bad. Baiyunge branch, the only branch in the same city in China, opened for business only a few days ago. The business was so hot that the bags that had been popular for a while ago were also sold along with the opening. Besides, there were several kinds of bags In order to completely defeat the new moon gold line in the shortest time, Ling Jingxuan also drew drawings to fat shopkeeper, asking him to find craftsmen in Baiyun pavilion to work overtime to produce a batch of gold and silver jewelry patterns that are absolutely not available in this era. They were also sold on the same day when the branch opened, so they walked to Dongda When I was on the street, what I saw was the scene of the crowd swarming. On the opposite side of the street, Xinyue golden line, let alone people, had no flies and mosquitoes.
"The second boss is coming. Come on, please."
For some reason, Zeng Shaoqing announced that Ling Jingxuan was still the second owner. However, he also gave an order. Ling Jingxuan of Baiyun Pavilion and Xinyuan could be in charge without any special instructions.
"Ha ha Manager Hong has worked hard. "
"Where and where..."
Two people's polite greetings a few words went in, the children also cleverly followed them.
"How could it be him?"
Behind the counter, Yuan Shaoqi, who was temporarily sent to support the opening of his new store, was shocked to see Yan Shengrui. He never dreamed that he would see him in such a place. Moreover, he noticed that he and the two children looked so similar. After looking at the interaction between him and Ling Jingxuan, could he For this reason, Yuan Shaoqi could not help but be more suspicious. What is going on? How could Prince Sheng get involved with a village husband? What happened to those two children?He is acutely aware that someone is looking at him. Yan Shengrui turns his head quickly. His eyes fall on Yuan Shaoqi precisely. He lowers his head in a panic. He doesn't know where to put his hands and feet. Yan Shengrui's bright peach blossom eyes reflect a little light. Recently, he has been busy working on iron making. He has not been exposed at home during the day. Is that the man who Yan Yi is looking for? I really want to punish him. I dare to find some troublemakers for him.
