35. Dad, are they all rewards for us?

After making the plan, the three of them quickly implemented it. Shen Qian first set a time for the students to take the exam and asked them to notify their parents so that they could watch.

As soon as this news came out, some people were happy and some were sad. The parents were happy. After the rice was recovered, there were only some trivial tasks left in the fields, and there was a lot more free time. Moreover, after finishing the autumn harvest just now, everyone was busy. If you're looking for something to relax and take a breath, this is it.

There were still several days before the exam. When everyone met Shen Qian's family, they smiled and asked how many people could go to see it, whether the whole family could go, or asked Lu Jiu and Song Lan if they needed help making cakes.

Although the ancestral hall was large, after more than a dozen students were seated, it was indeed difficult to squeeze in all the parents of the students. However, this opportunity was rare. Shen Qian understood their desire to watch, so he simply decided to set the location for the exam. In Shaiguchang, even if the whole village comes to watch, they can still stand.

Lu Jiu and Song Lan also found a few familiar women and husbands to help.

The day before the exam, Shen Qian and Lu Jiu went to the mountain to pick two full baskets of fresh tung leaves. Someone wanted to help, but they didn't agree. It was probably because they were the only two people going up the mountain for the first time, and the latter two were not used to being together. .

Song Lan and Li Xiuyun were equally busy in the room, pounding rice, grinding rice, and washing steamers. People who didn't know it thought they were hosting a banquet.

Different from the adults who are full of expectations, the children also want to eat tung leaf cake, but it is still unknown whether they can eat it. Everyone is busy during the autumn harvest and did not study for nearly half a month. Even Lu Shuisheng Lu Baisheng and I also forgot a lot of knowledge.

As for the so-called exam, they have never experienced it before. A group of children who are only a few years old will naturally feel fear and fear of the unknown.

They also want to get rewards, not only for the sake of face, but also to eat delicious food.

So everyone was so nervous that they no longer wanted to go out and play in their free time. When they got up in the morning and before going to bed at night, all they talked about was reading and writing.

The parents were even more happy to see him. It’s good to study hard. Anyway, there isn’t much work in the fields now, so it’s okay if the children don’t help.

The exam starts at Chen time. The main reason is that unlike the ancestral hall, there is a shelter on top, so it is always shaded. The rice dryer can only choose a place next to a big tree in the morning so that students can take the exam under the shade. At noon, there were few shade spots where so many people could sit.

The students' tables and stools had been moved over by their parents a long time ago. After everyone sat down quietly, Shen Qian handed out test papers to them. The test papers were written by himself, one for dictation and one for arithmetic. He also polished the ink, using a small The clam shells were placed on the students' desks. Those who had brushes used them. Those who didn't had softer branches dipped in ink and could barely write.

In order not to disturb the children, the parents who were watching sat far away from each other. Many of them could not find a shady place and did not mind staying in the sun while wearing bamboo hats.

Children are naturally afraid of their parents, and they are inevitably a little nervous when being watched by so many elders. Shen Qian said: "Think about it if you go out to do business, the customers will be closer around you. Do you still want to do business?"
