Farmer of Shu Han Chapter 879

Chapter 879 begins the exam

"Big brother... okay, let's go catch... catch loach..."

This song is sung by immature children, the most beautiful.

On the official road outside Weiwu City, Li Shushen, who was on his way, heard this childish voice, and couldn't help slowing down, looking towards the source of the sound.

I saw a little girl leaning on a small wooden stick, kicking her buttocks and climbing the small **** beside the official road.

Maybe she was tired from climbing, so she stopped and sang a few words after climbing a few steps.

Singing was a bit intermittent, as if he was hanging his voice.

Li Ming had never heard this kind of song before, and he said it was a unique slang song in Liangzhou. He simply stopped and said to Martin beside him:

"I didn't expect this Liangzhou folk song to sound interesting, but the accent is really weird. I've never heard it before..."

As he spoke, he turned to look at Martin.

But seeing that the other party was so dazed, he stood there in a daze, as if he was thinking about something.

"Brother Young Chang, what's going on? Why is your face so ugly?"

Li Ming also said that the other party was too tired after traveling all the way, "Wuwei City is ahead, when we arrive, let's rest for a few days..."

After Martin woke up with a start, a little panic appeared on his face.

This is the first time Li Ming has seen him lose his composure since he knew him.

Seeing Li Ming looking at him worriedly and curiously, Martin forced himself to smile:

"When I heard this song, I couldn't help thinking of some old things, which made Shu Shen laugh."

"Old things? Could it be that Cheng Xiaochang once came to Liangzhou and heard this song?"

Seeing Martin's appearance, Li Ming couldn't help asking in doubt.

Martin shook his head and denied, "Have I ever been to Liangzhou?"

Then pointed to Xiaopo not far away, "However, although the song sung by the girl is not very clear, I have indeed heard the rhyme of the song."

Li Ming also looked at the girl who had climbed to the top of the small slope, and said in surprise:

"What else is there? Could it be that this girl is the queen of an old friend?"

After hearing this, Martin's expression changed drastically.

But before he could speak, the **** Xiaopo had probably sensed that they were talking about herself.

Immediately, he used the wooden stick in his hand to hum, haha, and played a few tricks, but he still looked good.

With the final closing gesture, he pointed at the two of them and shouted:

"Who are you guys? Report your name quickly!"

Li Ming was interested. He walked a few steps forward, raised his head slightly, and found that although the girl's clothes didn't look complicated, the corners of the clothes were shaking, and there was a faint streamlined texture.

He was shocked, knowing that the girl's family background should not be underestimated.

After careful observation, there seemed to be a figure swaying behind the hillside. It seemed to be the girl's servant or something.

After getting this discovery, he gave up the idea of teasing the girl, and immediately cupped his hands:

"We are scholars who went to Wuwei to take the exam. When we heard the little lady singing, we lost our composure and offended us. Please forgive me."

On the surface, he said this to the girl, but in fact he said it to the people behind her.

Seeing him like this, the girl blinked, then scratched her head with her hands, as if she didn't know how to answer.

At this moment, only a woman's angry voice was heard from a distance:

"Feng Xiaoniang! You are running around again, see if I don't tell your mother to go!"

When the girl heard this voice, her expression changed drastically. She didn't care about talking to Li Ming, she turned her head and shouted:

"I didn't run around! I was scouting the enemy!"

While speaking, she climbed down the hillside on hands and feet, and disappeared behind.

At this time, Martin walked up to Li Ming in a hurry, and while pulling him forward, he said in a hurry:

"Shu Shen, hurry up!"

Li Ming was half-pulled forward by Martin, and asked in surprise:

"Why did Xiao Chang lose his composure?"

"In my opinion, the girl's family background is probably not simple. You and I are away from home, and we are new to Liangzhou. One thing more is worse than one thing less."

"Right…."

While talking, the two quickened their pace and rushed towards Wuwei City.

After they walked for a certain distance, the voice of the young lady of the Zhang family suddenly sounded from the original place:

"Enemy? What kind of enemy? Don't learn well at a young age! I think you are the enemy!"

As soon as the words were finished, Zhang Xiaositi came out from behind Xiaopo while slipping Feng Shuangshuang, and reprimanded him.

Feng Shuangshuang's short legs kept dangling in mid-air, and shouted:

"I didn't run around..."

Then stretched out his finger and pointed to the two figures who were about to walk away in front, "Look, Auntie, those two people talked to me just now!"

Zhang Xingyi looked in the direction she was pointing at, but after a glance, she couldn't help being a little taken aback:

Why does the figure in front look familiar?

Taking advantage of Zhang Xingyi's distraction, Shuangshuang twisted her body, broke free from her grasp, and ran away.

Zhang Xingyi was furious, and the thought that just surfaced was thrown to the back of his mind: "Don't run!"

How could Shuangshuang listen to her?

Turning across the small **** with both hands and feet, kicking and kicking with short legs, he stumbled towards a certain rescuer.

At this time, it is spring and flowers are blooming, and there are a lot of wild flowers and weeds outside the official road.

Feng Shuangshuang is small, and she is not afraid of being hung up in her clothes, so she ran into the field and disappeared.

But Zhang Xingyi was wearing a long skirt, so he didn't dare to walk over directly like her.

She stomped her feet and cried anxiously behind her:

"There are worms in the grass, be careful!"

Then he cursed at the follower, "What are you doing in a daze, hurry up and catch up!"

Not far behind the official road, there is a small nameless river, which flows westward and flows into the mighty moat.

Beside the small river, a cloth curtain was erected, indicating that the female family members of a rich family came out for spring.

Behind the curtain, green smoke is still curling up.

Zhao Guang was humming an unknown song, busy by the grill, and he could see that he was in a good mood.

Sitting next to him is Huang Wudie, whose mouth is full of oil and still keeps sending food into his mouth.

"This one is mushy, overheated, be careful next time."

Huang Wudie's mouth was full of grilled meat, and he didn't even forget to comment.

"Oh, ok, ok, I'll pay attention to this."

Zhao Guang flipped through the grilled fish and meat in his hand, while looking at Huang Wudie from time to time, with a smirk on his face, but tenderness in his eyes.

Guan Ji, who was sitting not far upwind and basking in the sun, saw the affectionate appearance of the two, she gave a disgusted "tss" and turned around on the recliner.

Feng Yong, who was sitting beside her, said with a smile:

"It's really a marriage, so that a man can really grow up."

Used to Zhao Guang's unreliability, Feng Yong was a little surprised to see him as a family man suddenly.

Huang Wudie's ear tipped, hearing Feng Yong's words, he answered loudly:

"Brother, after you got married, you have always been a husband and wife, and you have several children. You don't know the pain of our separation."

After Zhao Guang got married, he and Huang Wudie have been together less and more apart for the past few years.

Seeing that Guan Ji is pregnant with a second child, not to mention Huang Wudie who has been unwilling to lag behind, even the Zhao family is probably anxious.

So now, Mr. Zhao is going to Nanxiang to recuperate, and Liangzhou has stabilized.

After returning to Hanzhong, Huang Wudie made arrangements for Mr. Zhao and his wife, and then came to Liangzhou to meet Zhao Guang.

This is also a good thing.

"Don't talk nonsense! Where is it all the time? At the beginning, didn't we also parted for more than half a year?"

Feng Yong retorted.

After the white disaster, it was spring plowing again. After a long time, the spring plowing has passed, and the spring day is about to pass.

Grabbing the spring's tail and stealing some free time, Governor Feng took the whole family out to play.

After hearing what he said, Huang Wudie rolled her eyes, not knowing if she was choking or what.

Just then, a small figure suddenly broke in from outside the curtain.

Shuangshuang originally wanted to run to her adults.

But when she saw the aunt next to the adult, she turned decisively, ran to Huang Wudie, and shouted: "Aunt Huang!"

Huang Wudie saw Shuangshuang, her eyes immediately lit up, threw away the barbecue, and immediately hugged Shuangshuang: "Hey!"

At the same time, she kissed Shuangshuang's face several times, and Shuangshuang's little face was immediately stained with oil.

Although Huang Wudie and Guan Ji don't get along, she loves Guan Ji's son and daughter very much.

It's just that since Guan Ji learned that Zhang Xiaosi coveted the Feng family's secrets last time, she began to strictly discipline Ah Chong.

Just like now, In order to relive the leisure time in the past, Governor Feng wanted to go fishing.

Ah Chong was also forced to sit upright beside the adults with a small fishing rod and learn to fish.

Because my grandmother said that this is self-cultivation.

Seeing his son constantly glancing at his sister with an envious look, Governor Feng wanted him to play.

But the world is big, and pregnant women are the biggest. Now even Huang Wudie dare not provoke Guan Ji.

How dare Inspector Feng express his opinions on Sanniang's godson?

So I can only let my son be wronged.

At this moment, Zhang Xiaosi followed back angrily, and complained to Feng Yong:

"Brother-in-law, don't just look at Ah Chong, but also discipline Shuang Shuang, otherwise she will become a crazy girl!"

How old is the child?

Ah Chong is suffering enough, what more trouble do you want to add?

Feng Yong asked lazily:

"So what?"

"What do you think of her clothes? She looks wild everywhere, how can she still look like a girl?"

Huang Wudie saw it, quickly put both on the ground, and then whispered something in her ear.

Shuangshuang nodded, tied their horses, blushed, and dragged their voices, imitating Zhang Xiaosi and shouting:

"Brother-in-law!"

This sound can poke a hornet's nest.

Governor Feng jumped up all of a sudden.

Guan Ji turned her head abruptly, staring fixedly at that side.

Zhang Xingyi's face suddenly became blood red, and subconsciously stomped: "Look, brother-in-law!"

The corner of Governor Feng's mouth twitched:

Adding fuel to the fire, did you do it on purpose? So shrewd on weekdays, now he is a pig teammate?

Only Ah Chong, who was so frightened that he couldn't hold the fishing rod steadily in his hand, looked at his parents and aunt with a dazed and scared face.

Huang Wudie laughed, hugged Shuangshuang, turned around and ran away.

"Zhao Erlang, come here!"

Governor Feng rolled up his sleeves, "How long will it take to bake? I wonder if your sister is hungry?"

Zhao Guang looked at Huang Wudie who had disappeared, then looked at his elder brother who looked at him angrily, stared at his elder sister coldly, gritted his teeth and stared at his little sister...

It will be very hot tomorrow, and he suddenly feels very cold.

"It's really a bit chilly! This Liangzhou is very different from Shu."

Shu had already put on thin shirts at this time, but in Liangzhou, they still had to add an outer robe.

The steward who received the two couldn't help laughing when he heard Li Ming's words:

"Is this the first time for the two gentlemen to come to Liangzhou?"

"That's right, I originally set off in September last year, but I didn't think of Hanzhong. There was news that Liangzhou was blocked by heavy snow, so I had to wait until the beginning of spring."

Martin continued:

"I heard that there was a snowstorm in Liangzhou last year, and the price of food in Sichuan has risen!"

"I haven't been back to Shu for two or three years!"

The manager is actually from Sichuan. Hearing what Ma Tian said, he seems to have opened up the conversation:

"That's right. The white disaster in Liangzhou last year was really serious. In recent years, it is rare for food prices to rise so high in Sichuan."

"Hey, if you don't talk about those barbarians, it's a good time to meet Feng Junhou as the governor of Liangzhou."

"Even if it is high-priced food, we have to let Shu land to save people first. Otherwise, I don't know how many people will die in previous years."

"It would be great if Liangzhou could produce as much grain as Shu..."

While talking, the steward handed over two pieces of paper to the two: "Here, fill it in first."

"What is this?"

"Registration form, can you understand it? Can you write?"

Sure enough, it is indeed the place where Feng Guiwang is in charge, and it has the style of Nanxiang.

The two who stayed in Nanxiang for a long time suddenly had the same feeling.

"Understood, definitely will. Who would dare to take the exam?"

Martin rushed to answer, and then whispered to Li Ming: "The exam has already started."

Li Ming is a little unclear.

Martin did not elaborate, but only asked:

"Dare to ask if you have pen and ink?"

"Yes, there are pens and ink on every table over there."

This is a place dedicated to receiving test participants, and there are several rows of desks.

There are high tables and low tables, chairs and kneeling pads. It seems that Liangzhou Governor's Mansion has paid attention to this aspect, taking into account the different habits of scholars in different places.

After the two found a seat and sat down, Li Ming glanced at the steward.

Seeing that the other party had already read a book by himself, he lowered his voice and asked:

"Brother Xiaochang, the exam you mentioned just now..."

Martin shook the registration form in his hand: "Although there is no threshold for the exam, it is an invisible threshold for the exam. Only those who can read and write can participate."

Li Ming suddenly realized.

He was still thinking that the Governor of Liangzhou wanted to find out his own details with this thing.

It's true if you think about it, the world has been in chaos for decades, there are countless fugitives and hidden households, and the household registration system has long been corrupted.

Feng Guiwang and other people, how can they expect to know who is coming by relying on this?

After the two finished writing, the steward took a careful look at the registration form, and couldn't help admiring:

"This word is really good!"

He stood up and became more enthusiastic than before: "This is the number plate, two people turn left when you go out, someone will arrange for you two."

As he spoke, he handed over two signs with "Ding Forty-Three" and "Ding Forty-Four" written on them.

"In the next three months, the two of you will officially enter the exam. If you can pass these three months, you can enter the next stage."

The steward said with a smile.

Martin tried to inquire: "What are the exams for these three months, can you tell me?"

"Well, someone will arrange it."

The steward laughed, but refused to speak clearly.

But when he saw his accommodation, Li Ming couldn't help it anymore:

"Well... the two of us share a room?"

When the waiter who brought the two of them over heard it, he was immediately happy:

"Two people? My lord, how can there be only two people in such a big house? This is a room for four people. If someone comes again in the future, four people will live in it."

"What?!"

Although compared with the direct descendants of the Li family, Li Ming has suffered a little bit.

But in terms of accommodation, I never thought that I would live in the same room with others, and there were still four of them.

Maybe seeing some reluctance on Li Ming's face, the waiter added another sentence:

"My lord, this house is actually quite good."

"The two of you must have heard that Liangzhou suffered a catastrophe just last year. People's livelihood is difficult, and the government is short of money and food."

"But that's it. Free lodging is provided for the scholars who come from all over the world. The food and supplies are all people's fat and people's anointing!"

Hearing the waiter still say these words, Li Ming's face became hot.

Looking at the back of the waiter who taught Wanren away, Martin smiled thoughtfully: "It's interesting."

"Shu Shen, it's better to be away from home than to be at home. Especially in the governor's mansion, it is the first time since the big man to select talents through public examinations."

"How to take the exam and how to choose it is unknown. We should be cautious in our words and deeds. Just like living in this house, maybe it is also one of the exams."

"Is this considered a test?" On the second day, Li Ming pointed to everything in front of him and asked Martin tremblingly, "Youchang, are you sure we didn't come here as coolies?"

No money for the following:

A comrade-in-arms came over suddenly a few days ago. To be honest, I never thought that there are still comrades-in-arms who would remember me.

I haven't drunk alcohol in the past ten years, and I broke my vow these days, so I haven't changed it these days.

The reason why I drank too much was not because of anything else, but on the birthday of my motherland, I suddenly discovered that I had such an experience when I was young and passionate.

I hope that the motherland will always be prosperous and strong, and the people will always be peaceful!

I hope that when I become an old man, I can see the great rejuvenation of the nation with my own eyes!

Because of this, the old man feels that although this life is a waste of time in other aspects, it is mediocre.

But at least the **** did something meaningful!
