After so long, Ai Xiaoya has long realized that there are some things that cannot be explained with these ancients, so she does not refute it, and promises on the surface: Okay, I know, I will be careful, I don't count Brother Xu'er's marriage, it is useless for her to approach me, I am just doing business with her, and I will not have anything else to do with her.Lin Fangming just reminded her that he didn't say anything anymore when he saw that she was listening.But in fact, did Ai Xiaoya listen?
I really listened to it, originally she was still thinking yesterday if she accounted for sixty percent of the profits was too much, in modern times, the partner who opened the company with his brother was the technology shareholder, which only accounted for 27 percent of the shares, that is, less than thirty percent.But now she doesn't think it's too much, thinking that if you take advantage of me, you have to pay a price, as for whether you tie the knot in the end, or chicken and egg fight, it's none of my business.So you see, people with different values and worldviews never think at the same point, which is why the people who were originally traveling with each other end up parting ways.When Ai Xiaoya was still struggling for her career, Lin Fangxu and his party also arrived in Hangzhou.This time, Wen Boyuan and Lin Fangshao both felt that there was little chance of the township test, so they did not come to participate.Lin Fangxu, Lin Fangqi and Wu Zisheng walked together, plus Lin Fangqin, who sent the exam, the two guards sent by the sixth grandfather and Wu Zisheng's scholar, this time they lived in the Xu family's courtyard.The township exam was admitted on the eighth day of the first month, and Lin Fangxu and the others arrived only on the tenth day of July, because it was still early, and the three of them plus Xu Zhongkang, who was also going to participate, got together in the morning to talk about the exam experience and comment on each other's studies.In the afternoon, I went out to visit the West Lake, organized a literary meeting with candidates from ten provinces in Zhejiang, and the teachers of the four major academies gave questions, and a group of people gathered together to learn from each other.The regular subjects in the imperial examination are held regularly, and the general examination time will not change unless there is a major event in the Gongyuan country.The township examination lasts for nine days, and the examination is divided into three sessions, each of which lasts for three days.The ninth day of the eighth month is the first session, try the meaning of the "Analects", the meaning of the "Mean" or "University", the righteousness of Mencius, and the meaning of the "Five Classics", each of the three questions and four books in the initial field must write more than 200 words, and the four questions of the scriptures need to be written more than 300 words.The twelfth is the second session, which is a trial discussion, and a trial of edicts, judgments, tables, and edicts.On the 15th, the third session was to try to use five current affairs policies, that is, to express opinions or opinions on current affairs and government affairs in combination with scripture theories.During the meeting, the teachers of the four major academies simply wrote the questions according to the requirements of the township examination, and the students who participated in the meeting wrote their own questions, and then together on the second day, they voted for each other/taste/evaluation.After all, Lin Fangxu was the first of the three examinations last year, although he was young, he was very knowledgeable, and he won the championship in the Wenhui competition, and soon broke out the name of a prodigy brother among a group of scholars.Also famous are Senior Brother Xu Zhongkang, and Lin Fangxu's pen pal Shang Tan, Shen Jing and Shen Mao brothers are also quite outstanding, and the teacher of Chongwen Academy even joked: I am afraid that the five leaders in this township examination are the five of them.Later, every time a cultural meeting was held, the five people would even be deliberately arranged together, so by the end of the cultural meeting in early August, I don't know if the five people could win the five kui, except for Lin Fangxu and Shen Jing, who would raise each other's bars, the others became familiar with each other.The busy and busy days of each day passed in a blink of an eye, and soon it was the eve of the exam.The township test is different from the hospital test, and if you win the show, you only have the qualification to enter Shilin, and whether you can get in or not depends on your township test.On the ninth day of August in the seventh year of Jianwen, for Lin Fangxu, a township tester, it can be regarded as one of the most important moments in life.When the exam, which decided whether to be an official or a citizen in the future, arrived, the Xu family courtyard was shrouded in a tense atmosphere, and the people who took the exam were not very good, and the others had become cautious.Last night, the four of them went back to their rooms early to rest as soon as it got dark, and the next day they didn't need to be called, and they all gathered in the main hall at the beginning of the ugly time to have breakfast together.Lin Fangxu finally lived one more life, but he was not too nervous, but Wu Zisheng was pale, his eyes were dark, and when he saw Lin Fangqi also staring at him, he smiled bitterly: Don't look at it, I almost didn't sleep all night last night, hey, it's not as good as the three of you.Lin Fangqi handed him a boiled egg and said: I broke the jar, since I participated in the Wenhui and saw the performance of talents in various prefectures, I knew that I was afraid that I could only be an escort this time, but I was not so nervous.Xu Zhongkang listened to what he said, and said with a smile: You are very open-minded, too, anyway, no matter what, the husband has been married, haha Lin Fangqi also smiled and said: That is, if I can't pass this time, I will go back and give birth to my son first, Kuang Fu Sheji, serve the court and it is not my turn, the task of inheriting the family must be completed.After listening to him, the other three laughed heartily and gaged each other, which made the atmosphere a lot more relaxed.After breakfast, the three of them got up at the end of the ugly hour and set off for the Gongyuan.Chapter 27 When he arrived at the front street of the Gongyuan, the relatives who sent the exam stopped, but they would allow each person to bring a scholar into the house to help carry the salute, and Lin Fangqin personally took a guard to send the Lin Fangxu brothers to the large square in front of the Gongyuan.The gate of the Gongyuan is also called the instrument gate, which is the gate of the three que, the wooden structure, the red paint is played, and the people are in the middle.The main entrance has the size of five rooms, and the middle door is a red plaque and black character tribute courtyard.The left forehead opens the door, and the right forehead calls for handsomeness.There is a pair of stone lions in front of the door, and there is a memorial arch on both sides, respectively, the book says: Ming Jing takes scholars, seeks talents for the country.Before the time came, the door of the instrument was closed, blocking the scenery inside the Gongyuan and the scenery of officialdom.Among the group of candidates who have already obtained the entrance to the scholars, waiting to pass the exam, and officially become a member of the scholars, Lin Fangxu, as a person who has come over, looked at the closed door at this time, and his mind can clearly recall the scene he saw when he entered the Gongyuan in his previous life.Entering the instrument gate, there are two stele pavilions, and the stele says: neat and serious.There are three official rooms in the east and west, which are the resting places of the government and county officials.Then go in for the two doors are also called the dragon gate, the door is carved on the wall, and behind the wall is the place where the gold list is pasted.The gold list is the imperial system, when the chief examiner goes out of Beijing, it is issued by the saint himself, there are dragons and phoenixes flying around, the colorful clouds are auspicious, and the seal of the saint is printed on the top of the center, to show that the country attaches importance to talents.Entering the dragon gate, the first thing to see is the main building Mingyuan Building located on the central axis, the building is three floors high, the ground floor is surrounded by walls on four sides, each has a round arch, the four eaves columns go straight to the top from the ground floor, the beams and columns are intertwined, and there are windows on all sides.Looking around, the entire Hangzhou Gongyuan is clear at a glance, and it is the place where examiners and deacons are on alert and giving orders during the examination.Downstairs in the south of the hanging couplet, the upper link under the pen of a thousand words, when the cinnamon is fragrant, after the yellow acacia flower, the lower link goes out to smile, see the full moon in the West Lake, the tide of East Zhejiang comes, encourage the candidates to have a calm mentality.The candidate's house is located on the east and west sides of the Mingyuan Building, each house is six feet high, four feet deep, and three feet wide.The brick walls on the left and right walls of the building are one or two feet above the ground, and the upper and lower brick supports are built, and the upper and lower wooden planks are placed.During the daytime exam, the upper wooden board replaces the table, the lower wooden board is a stool, and at night rests, take out the upper wooden board and put it into the lower layer, which is a sleeping bed.During the three seven-night exams, the candidates spent their room and board in this humble dormitory.When Lin Fangxu recalled his previous life, when he was bitten by mosquitoes in the house number and couldn't sleep, the gate of the Gongyuan finally opened.Three days before the start of the exam, the monks and monks will be invited to the Mingyuan Tower, set up an altar to beat Jiao for three days and nights, pray to the upper realm and the underworld, and set up sacrificial flags, and make the soldiers take turns waving the flag day and night and shouting: There is kindness to repay kindness, there is revenge!
, in order to warn candidates to do good and prohibit evil on weekdays, otherwise there will be retribution in the examination room.Believe it or not, this process always has to be completed, after the door opened, two teams of soldiers walked out of it, holding red and black flags respectively, and shouted in unison: Grace ghosts enter, there is grace to repay kindness, resentful ghosts enter, there is revenge revenge.After the flag was brought in, the two chief examiners, accompanied by a group of examiners, appeared at the gate of the Gongyuan.The chief examiner Cai Bozhao, the inspector of the Imperial Palace, in Lin Fangxu's previous life experience as an official, no matter what a person's character is, but when he becomes the imperial history, he will always show a clean and honest, serious and stereotyped appearance, in the words of modern people, it is called a similar personality.At this time, the chief examiner, who has the standard configuration of the imperial history, was emphasizing the discipline of the examination room in a stern tone, and after a warning, he said in a deep voice: Open the tribute door.Then, in order, each province enters the gate in turn, and the candidates must open their clothes before entering the examination room, and be searched by two sergeants on the hairline, down to the knees, and on the abdomen/naked/naked/.If there is a piece of paper in his bosom, he must be put in a flail for a month in front of the scene, and ask for the guilt.The examiner is also subject to the same severe restraints, and behind the examiner's eight large sedan chairs, there is a box of guillotine torture instruments, which are used to break the waist if the examiner commits a crime of malpractice in the field.Lin Fangxu packed up the dismantled bedding, scattered clothes, cut steamed bread and baked cakes, carried the examination basket, hugged the salute, and entered the dragon gate.His house number is in the sixth row, the sixth number, a very auspicious number, which he finds quickly, but he can't sit down and answer the question right away.The Gongyuan is opened once every three years, and the whole house has accumulated dust for three years, thick enough to grow grass, and there are spiders pulling webs in the air.Lin Fangqi also found his own number house at this time, the fifteenth line seven, although the number is not so auspicious, but it is not a stinky number, rain number, and after he saw the three years of precipitation in the number house, he muttered to himself: Fortunately, Brother Xu asked me to bring two more handkerchiefs, otherwise I will clean it up, and I am afraid that I will only have to share one for my face and feet in the next few days.After experiencing the undignified search of Huaihuai taking off his shoes, a group of candidates had to roll up their sleeves and bring water to clean the house number before they could take the answer test.After Lin Fangxu cleaned up the house, it was already sunset, and people were already tired, hungry, and exhausted.Lin Fangxu took out a small charcoal stove and a pocket small pot to boil a pot of rice porridge for himself, and then cut some of the beef that the eldest brother-in-law personally sauced into it with a knife, and the fragrance attracted the envy of the candidates who were eating cold food around.Lin Fangxu remembered the question of this Hangzhou Township Examination, and naturally fell asleep easily at night, and slept until dawn.In the patrol sergeant, with an expression on his face that you are afraid that you are not here for an outing, he calmly took out yesterday's small pot stove, cooked a bowl of noodles for himself, and peeled two boiled eggs into it.The equipment for Lin Fangxu's exam was specially customized by the eldest brother who inquired about the township test from his eldest uncle, and also customized a set for Lin Fangqi, which was very convenient and easy to use.After Lin Fangxu was full, he packed up his convenient and easy-to-use equipment, and then took out the exam paper bag, opened the exam question paper, and carefully reviewed the questions.After reviewing the question, Lin Fangxu breathed a sigh of relief, and it was really the same as in his memory.Three questions and four book questions, twenty questions in the five classics, four book questions must be answered, but only one of the five classics is required, all candidates have to register in the Yamen of the Political Secretary three days ago that they are going to take the exam, Lin Fangxu chose "Spring and Autumn".Although I remember the exam questions, there were similar questions and Lin Fangqi answered them before the exam, but this doesn't actually mean anything, at most, it is just more time than others to review the questions, what level you are, and the articles you write are still at that level.Lin Fangxu naturally didn't dare to hold it up, compared to the tricky questions of the county exam, the truncated question of the donkey's lips and the horse's mouth in the hospital exam, the township exam was more dignified, which could actually better test a person's talent.Although the township examination is divided into three sessions, only the first one is really valued by the examiner, especially the four books and three questions, as long as the papers of these three questions are selected, the second and third exams only need to be smooth in literature and science to pass.Therefore, Lin Fangxu put all his energy into the four-book title first, and then considered other things after he was impeccable.After reading the three questions, Lin Fangxu devoted himself to it, and began to reveal the topic first, in order to break the topic, and then elaborate on the above, which is called the topic, and then began to discuss, called the talk, and then to start, as a breakthrough to lead to the text after the talk.After all of the above are considered, it is divided into four paragraphs: the starting stock, the middle share, the back strand and the bundle strand, and in each paragraph, there are two strands of dual text, a total of eight strands, and an article is written.Then read it word by word, sentence by sentence, ponder carefully, and make sure that the article and the title are tightly matched, and the sages speak in a dignified and upright manner, and the style of everyone is sprinkled with enthusiasm, and the intention is profound and outstanding in mediocrity.After answering the three questions, the first three days have been gone for two and a half days, Lin Fangxu took half a day to answer the four scripture questions, although he did not have the four books of the title of the heart, but he did not do the same, and he handed in the paper when the sun set.After handing in the papers, Lin Fangxu was really a little worried, although he was too young to participate in the township examination, he could enter the WTO in advance, but his body was not as strong as an adult.Lin Fangxu came out of the examination room, obviously feeling much more tired than in the previous life, his body seemed to be hollowed out, the Xu family courtyard was not far from the tribute courtyard, after Lin Fangxu went back, he ate something, and Xu Zhongkang and others came back one after another.Several of them looked tired, and they didn't care about gags, so they rested early and had to take the second exam tomorrow.The second session remains unchanged, and the candidates still have some salutes inside, so the inspection at the time of admission is not so cumbersome.The exam questions are relatively easy for Lin Fangxu, and the answer is also very fast, but unfortunately the sky is not beautiful, it rained in the middle of the autumn, the weather is very cold, Lin Fangxu has a headache when he finishes answering the paper, and he sneezes, which is not a good phenomenon.By the time he entered the third session, Lin Fangxu was already a little feverish, and as soon as he sat down this time, he took out the exam papers, began to review and solve the questions, and then answered quickly.Before his body was about to be unable to support it, Lin Fangxu handed in the papers, walked out of the examination room, and saw his eldest brother running towards him anxiously in a trance.But said that Lin Fangqin, since he sent his little brother who was still feverish into the examination room, he had been worried, and in the next two days, in addition to eating and sleeping, he waited at the gate of the Gongyuan, for fear of seeing the little brother being carried out, and when he saw him walk out of the examination room, he saw the little brother fall to the ground before he let go.Lin Fangqin quickly ran over, picked up Lin Fangxu, and ran towards the nearest medical hall, anxious all the way, I don't know whether he was comforting Lin Fangxu or reassuring himself and said: Brother Xu, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, it's okay, next time I won't take the test, let's go home, let Ermu take the test in the future.The medical hall was already full of candidates who fell down in the middle of the township test and were carried out, like Lin Fangxu, who was not serious, and the doctor prescribed medicine, and only told them to take them back to sweat and sleep.Lin Fangqin took his little brother back again, personally soaked him in a hot bath, wiped his hands and feet with spirits, and stayed until he woke up in the middle of the night, drank medicine, and was relieved at noon the next day.Although Xu Zhongkang and the three of them did not fall ill, they were already completely prostration, and they were difficult to have a few brothers, so they honestly stayed at home to recuperate, counted the days with their fingers, and waited for the list to be released.Chapter 28 Aunt Xiao, who is far away in Wuyi County, is also waiting for the township test list.She and Ai Xiaoya's collection of flowers and autumn clothes has been completed, and the rented out shop has also been collected and rearranged.On the opening of the shop, there was a disagreement between the two, and Aunt Xiao naturally felt that it would be good to set off firecrackers and invite the God of Wealth.Ai Xiaoya wanted to set up a stage at the door of the shop, invite a few models, put on clothes, and have a small catwalk, so that the publicity effect would be better.It's just that the platform is easy to build, but the model is not easy to find, how can a woman from a good family in the entire Great Wei Dynasty dare to show her head like this, let people judge her character, she didn't treat it as a serious business, where is Aunt Xiao willing to go to great lengths.Seeing that she resolutely refused, Ai Xiaoya clasped her hands, raised her eyebrows and said: Speaking of which, my little uncle should have entered the examination room at this time, and the eldest uncle said that he would definitely be able to win the lift this time, and also said that he would show him a good family affair after the lift.A cold light flashed in Aunt Xiao's eyes, and she said with a smile: If the head of the Lin family's small case is lifted, there are many girls in Wuyi County who want to marry, but it is the model that the lady just said, I am afraid that there is no woman from a good family who is willing.It's better to try to find as many slaves and maids as possible in the house.
