Ordinary happy life

Chapter 177: College Examination

"Father, Dad, I want to take the exam this year to be a scholar." Since Zhang Qiong'an and Zhang Jingcheng got married one after another, Zhang Dayong and Zhang Hong'an were the only ones left in the family. Zhang Hongan is already seventeen this year. Zhang Dayong gave the house deed to the two brothers when Zhang Jingcheng got married. He originally wanted Zhang Hongan to live in the town. Firstly, the two brothers would have help, and secondly, Zhang Hongan would have daily support. No need to run back and forth arduously. But Zhang Hongan refused, saying that he would not live in the town before getting married and would stay at home for a few more years. Although Zhang Dayong and Lin Qin said that he was like a child and couldn't leave home, they were still very happy in their hearts.

Zhang Hongan was still young when he was admitted to the Tongsheng Examination, so he had no idea of ​​​​taking the exam as a scholar. He devoted himself to studying, especially writing poems. He worked hard. Even if he has made great progress in these years, he will definitely not be the same as in the past. language.

Six years have passed, and Zhang Hongan is not only 100% sure about taking the exam, but he is still 70% or 80% sure. What's more, youth is his capital. Even if he doesn't pass the exam this time and takes the exam next time, he will still be twenty years old.

"Okay, your father and I will go with you when the time comes. Shouldn't the Xiucai Examination also go to Fucheng?" Zhang Dayong said without thinking.

Zhang Hongan nodded and said, "Yes, Father, I'm an adult now. No need. I can go by myself when the time comes. You and Dad don't need to accompany

me." When Lin Qin heard that Zhang Hongan wouldn't let them accompany him, he immediately became anxious and said, " How can that be possible? You have never gone out alone. How can your father and I feel at ease?" "

Your father is right, and your body has been weaker than others since you were a child. It is said that the scholar examination takes place in the examination room. After staying there for three days, many people had to be helped out. There is no one around you to take care of you. What if you faint by then." Zhang Dayong knew that Zhang Hongan didn't want them to have such a hard time, but he let Zhang Hongan go alone. Zhang Dayong was absolutely worried when he went to take the exam.

Zhang Hongan finally realized that even if he got married in the future, he would still be a baby in need of care in the eyes of Zhang Dayong and Lin Qin. However, thinking about the uncomfortable examination room and stuffy environment mentioned by the gentlemen, and considering that he was not in a healthy body, Zhang Hongan did not continue to persuade him. Because he couldn't guarantee that he would be able to walk out of the examination room on his own after finishing the exam.

Seeing that Zhang Hongan was not talking, Lin Qin acquiesced to follow them, so he asked, "Hong An, when are you leaving??? I always have to arrange things at home." Lin Qin has raised a lot of chickens and ducks over the years, and he is going out now Otherwise, other than the chickens and ducks, you must entrust others to take care of them.

"The next hospital examination will be in two months, but registration only lasts for three days. Tomorrow, father, you will send me to the county seat, and I will go to the county government office to register for the hospital examination. After successful registration, we can arrive in the capital a week in advance. ." Zhang Hongan thought for a while and said.

Zhang Dayong had not forgotten the embarrassment of almost having no place to stay when he went to Fucheng last time. He thought for a moment and said, "Let's go there half a month in advance. Firstly, you can study in peace of mind. Secondly, if you come and go late, you will have no place to stay." ."

"But accommodation in Fucheng is expensive. If you stay for an extra week, it will cost dozens of taels more." Zhang Hongan said with some reluctance.

Zhang Dayong waved his hand and said, "It's okay. I've been saving the cost of your scientific examination for you. Not to mention just staying for one more week, even if you live in the city directly for a month, we will all have money." "

Thank you, father." Zhang Hongan didn't expect that Zhang Dayong would actually save money for him to take the imperial examination, and said with some emotion.

"Silly boy, why are you so polite to my father? As long as you are healthy and promising, my father will be very happy." Ever since the children grew up, Zhang Dayong rarely rubbed their heads like he did when he was a child. Maybe it was the atmosphere. It was great, or maybe it was Zhang Hongan's red eyes that made Zhang Dayong feel a little soft, and he couldn't help but reach out and rub his head a few times.

Zhang Hongan hadn't been treated like this by Zhang Dayong for a long time, and his cheeks turned red with embarrassment.

The next day, Zhang Dayong took Zhang Hongan to register successfully, paid the examination fee, and then came back with the certificate issued by the county government. When passing through the town, Zhang Dayong thought for a while and took Zhang Hongan to Zheng's house. Firstly, to see Zhang Qiongan and his children. Secondly, Zheng Qizhi was a scholar and had experience in participating in college examinations. Although Zhang Hongan had been given guidance by his husband, But it's always good to listen to more experiences.

"Father, Hong'an, why are you here today? Where's Dad? Didn't Dad come???" Zhang Qiong'an puffed up her stomach and was very surprised to see Zhang Dayong and Zhang Hong'an.

"Hurry up and sit down. You said you are such a big man and the father of two children, yet you are so reckless." When Zhang Dayong saw Zhang Qiong'an running over, he was so frightened that he quickly helped him sit down.

After Zhang Qiong'an and Zheng Qizhi got married, they got pregnant in just over three months, and gave birth to a big fat boy at once. The shopkeeper Zheng and his wife were as happy as anything, and they were even better to Zhang Qiong'an.

Because Shopkeeper Zheng and his wife only had one child, Zheng Qizhi, so even if they didn't get pregnant for the next two years after giving birth to their eldest son, Shopkeeper Zheng and his wife didn't say anything, not even to induce the baby.

In the third year after Zhang Qiong'an and Zheng Qizhi got married, Zheng Qizhi took the Juren exam but failed. He was so shocked that he gave up taking the exam and is now learning how to manage a bookstore from his father.

When the eldest child was three years old, Zhang Qiongan became pregnant again and gave birth to a little brother. Although he was not a boy, Shopkeeper Zheng and his wife were very happy because of their relationship with the eldest son. Mrs. Zheng even hugged the little brother and kissed her every day. After a while, as for all the affairs of the Zheng family, they were directly handed over to Zhang Qiong'an for management, and she could feel at ease as a grandmother who loved her grandson.

Zhang Qiong'an originally wanted to give birth to a third child a few years later, but who knew that she would become pregnant again just over a year ago? But I don't know if it was due to the continuous birth of children. Zhang Qiong'an always felt a little difficult with this pregnancy. Even all the things in the Zheng family were given to Zhang Qiong'an and returned to Mrs. Zheng. She only cared about the child in her belly.

"I haven't seen you for several months. Have I missed you?" Ever since Zhang Qiong'an married Zheng Qizhi, she has been pampered by Zheng Qizhi. She has become more childish, especially after becoming pregnant. If something goes wrong at all, the water will drop.

Although Zhang Dayong said that Zhang Qiong'an was reckless, he was still very happy with Zhang Qiong'an's childishness. This meant that he lived a good and happy life in the Zheng family. Don't they, as fathers, only want their children to be happy?

"Your father is not at home. I took Hong An to the county to register for the college exam today. I just came back from the county and I thought I haven't seen you for a while, so I came over to see you." Zhang Dayong rubbed Zhang Qiong'an's head and said .

Zhang Qiong'an glanced at Zhang Hong'an with some surprise and said, "Hong'an, you are going to take the college examination??? What did your husband say???" "My

husband said that I already have the firepower, so you can give it a try." Zhang Hong'an said .

Zhang Qiong'an nodded when he heard this and said, "Okay, when is the college exam? I'll pack some things for you

to take with you." "The college exam is in two months. Brother, my father will prepare the things for the exam. Yes, you can just take care of the baby with peace of mind." Zhang Hongan glanced at Zhang Qiong'an's ridiculously big belly and said worriedly.

Zhang Qiong'an said disapprovingly, "What Dad prepared is what Dad prepared. What I prepared is from my heart. You must come to my place before departure, otherwise I will be angry." "

Okay." Tian Da Di The pregnant woman is the biggest, what else can Zhang Hongan say.

"Brother An, isn't Qizhi at home? He has experience in the college entrance examination. I want him to teach Hong An." Zhang Dayong looked around and said.

Zhang Qiong'an replied, "He went to the bookstore with his father. I'll find a servant to call him back."

Zhang Dayong stopped him and said, "Let's forget it. He must have something to do when he went to the bookstore. Wouldn't it be bad to call him back?" "

Ah. Father, Qizhi is your son-in-law, that is, half of the Zhang family, so there is no need to be so polite." Zhang Qiong'an said and directly ordered his personal attendant to go to the bookstore to call Zheng Qizhi back.

When Zheng Qizhi heard that Zhang Dayong and Zhang Hongan were coming, he hurriedly ran back from the bookstore. He first said hello to Zhang Dayong and Zhang Hongan, and then asked Zhang Qiong'an, "Husband, how are you feeling today? Are you still feeling uncomfortable??? "

I'm fine today. I don't feel like vomiting very much, but my waist is a little uncomfortable." Zhang Qiong'an said, rubbing the waist behind him.

Hearing this, Zheng Qizhi said distressedly, "If your waist feels uncomfortable, ask the attendant to massage it for you. If it doesn't work, let's find a doctor." "It's

just a little sore. There's no big problem. You don't need to see a doctor. Husband, Hong'an is preparing to take part in the college examination this time and wanted to come over and ask you something about the college examination." Zheng Qizhi sometimes became very verbose and could talk about the smallest things for a long time. Zhang Qiong'an was both sweet and distressed. Worried that Zheng Qizhi would talk endlessly once he started talking, Zhang Qiong'an quickly changed the subject.

Zheng Qizhi understood what Zhang Qiong'an meant, and was concerned that Zhang Dayong and Zhang Hongan were still there, so he wanted to wait until they left before continuing to ask Zhang Qiong'an. Then he turned to Zhang Hongan and said, "Hong'an is preparing to take part in this year's college examination??? With your knowledge, you can indeed take part. Each examiner is different. When you arrive, you can go find out about this examiner." Who is it? It's not about asking you to bribe. It's about knowing the style of the examiner, and knowing that if the article you write is not in the style that the examiner likes, no matter how good your writing is, you will be eliminated in the end." Zhang Hongan

also He really didn't expect this. He thought that as long as he answered all the questions correctly, he would be able to pass, but he didn't expect that there were these articles in it.

"Thank you for your advice, brother-in-law. I'll take note of it." Zhang Hongan thanked him.

"Why are you being polite to me? The weather is a bit hot this year, and the examination room will only become more depressing. My body has always been relatively weak, so it is best to bring some anti-heat medicine to avoid heat stroke. In addition, although all candidates are required to only eat the items distributed, but you also You can bring some hard-to-break dry food just in case, but the dry food will be crushed during the inspection to prevent you from entraining it." Zheng Qizhi continued.

Zhang Hongan carefully wrote down every word Zheng Qizhi said, thinking about what he should bring with him to take the college examination this time.

Author's gossip: I got stuck as soon as I got to the extra chapter, so I'll post one to everyone first. I originally wanted to write about An Geer first, but I found that it was easier to write about Zhang Hongan, so... I entered the competition in a new pit, please give me some advice.
