Poor family mother and son

"Auntie, I applied to come to Yong'an Mansion by myself!" After washing up, Qiu Sheng was finally clean and refreshed, and began to report the itinerary.

Xiao Bao hit Qiu Sheng's emotions with a cold face: "If you don't apply, you have to come to Yong'an Mansion!"

Xiaobao is angry now. One is that Qiusheng ignored the danger and mixed with refugees; the other is that Xiangzi sued, saying that Qiusheng refused to let force open the way, so he was surrounded by refugees.

So even though he was very happy to see Qiu Sheng, he couldn't help but give Qiu Sheng a cold face first, and show him the kindness of a woman!

Not to mention putting himself in a dangerous situation, but also let his mother be hit, hehe, if it were someone else, Xiaobao would beat him up first.

But Xiaobao hit the truth, because even Chu Qing thought that Qiu Sheng had been squeezed out.

Chu Qing glared at Xiaobao. It was a pleasure to meet him, so how could he be disappointed? First, he congratulated Qiusheng: "Congratulations Qiusheng, you have been named on the gold list!"

I don't know Qiusheng's results yet, but I can't say that I can't go wrong with the title on the gold list.

Qiu Sheng scratched the back of his head, sat down next to Xiao Bao, didn't mind Xiao Bao's attitude at all, and said, "Auntie, I'm ashamed, I was born as a fellow Jinshi, so I didn't fail!"

Chu Qing: "Huh? How should I say it?"

Qiu Sheng: "There are 100 more candidates this year, and I happen to be 4! If it is the same as in previous years, I will be finished!"

This time Xiaobao was not angry anymore, and asked: "You did well in the autumn exam, why did you only get [-] in the spring exam?"

Qiu Sheng said: "It's still not as good as the candidates from Jiangnan. Don't look at Jizhou, we all have good grades, but after entering Beijing, we didn't know how good the students from Jiangnan were!

When it comes to citing scriptures and classics, we really can’t do it. Many classics have only been heard but never seen, but they can just open their mouths;
You know, policy articles not only focus on whether the stated views are correct, but also whether they can cite empirical evidence;
It would be best to quote a pair of classics to prove that the predecessors also had the same remarks or practices, which few of us can do. "

Xiaobao refused to accept it: "Then what if there is no one before?"

Qiu Sheng said: "Even if there are no ancients, there are people today. For example, 'Eight Winds', which prefect or county magistrate was appointed in which year and place, and what measures were taken to reduce losses, etc. We can't tell at all."

These news, without official channels, it is impossible for ordinary people to know.

This is the resource gap between the aristocratic family and the poor family.

Xiaobao still refused to accept it: "Hmph! Before my mother kissed, there was no cannon. Where can I quote scriptures?"

"This is not a test, if you do, do you believe someone will use this as a reference?" Qiu Sheng retorted: "Oh, why didn't you take the test about firearms?
In that case, our quotations must be the most powerful, for example, we can write: Marquis Linyang once said how..."

Now Xiaobao forgot the anger he was angry with before, and laughed along with Qiusheng.

Qiu Sheng saw that Little Treasure had finally calmed down, so he returned to the topic: "I was too nervous in the palace exam. Originally, there were more than 370 people in the palace exam. When I met the emperor in the palace exam, my palms were sweaty, and I slipped while holding the pen. Not to mention the stiff writing, I accidentally scratched an ink mark, although it is very faint, but it can be seen, so it is not unfair to give it a 4th place."

This is true, the common people can see the sky all of a sudden, it must be excited, trembling hands, hot sweat and cold sweat, something wrong is very likely.

Qiu Sheng continued: "On the day when the rankings were released in the autumn exam, I saw that there were [-] names without me. At that time, my heart was overwhelmed, and I was ready to pack up and go back to my hometown. I thought it was bad luck;

Hey, suddenly the yamen announced that 400 people would be recruited this year, and then another list was added under the list, so I looked inside, hey, 370 three!Do you think I am lucky or not? "

Of course he was lucky, otherwise he would have failed the ranking?However, if you go back and repeat the exam, what if you can do better in the exam?
Qiu Sheng said: "I'm not expected to be a scholar, I passed the exam anyway, and changed my family. From now on, let's see my son, I don't want to take the exam again!

My mother said that I was able to be born as a Jinshi in this life, and it was all thanks to my aunt's cultivation that the ancestral grave of our old Wu family smoked..."

Chu Qing waved his hands straight: "Don't! Just to tell you, it seems that I went to set fire to your ancestral grave..."

Xiao Bao laughed out loud.

Qiu Sheng also laughed: "Auntie, go blame my mother, these are really my mother's words."

Thinking of Zhang Erni, Chu Qing felt very warm. If she only had a jar of soybean paste, she would give it to Chu Qing.

Qiusheng began to talk about the process of coming to Yong'an Mansion: "When we finished the exam, Xiao Haixing came to pick us up, asked us for the exam questions, and said that my aunt had already left for Haizhou Mansion;
After we asked, we found out that my aunt was going to be made the Duke of the state, and the land was in Haizhou Prefecture;

So we made an appointment at the time, if we could pass the exam, we would come to Haizhou to be an official and help my aunt. Otherwise, in such a poor place, there would be no people, no land, and my aunt would have to work hard!

As soon as the results were released, we were all on the list!However, except for Pei Qing who entered the second class, um, the 140th place, the rest of us are all behind the [-]th place;
By the way, You Zhenghang is this year's Tan Hua Lang!He is really good, only 19 years old!

Now that's all right, since they're all on the list, we'll go find Mr. Song Tingshan. This year, Mr. Song will be in charge of evaluating the students from Jizhou and Xinlunzhou for the selection by the Ministry of Officials;
Mr. Song said that this time the court made an exception to increase the number of scholars, and also requested that the selection process of the Ministry of Officials be shortened;

In the past, it would take a year or so for the selection of a set of rules to come down, but this time the request must be completed within a month, which shows that the court is eager to employ people;

Then Jiaxing Mansion abolished many officials this time, and needed to select available people, Mr. Song was too busy;
We said that we should all be brought to Haizhou Mansion, so that Mr. Song would spend less time thinking, but Mr. Song said no;
He said that although our rankings were not good, the test papers were reviewed one by one by the emperor. The emperor said that rankings did not represent ability, and students from poor families knew better about the suffering of the people, so they had to be scattered to areas severely affected by disasters;
Therefore, it is impossible for us to go to one place all at once. Moreover, although Haizhou Prefecture is the most severely affected, it is also the place where it is most difficult to achieve performance. We cannot use such a place to discourage the enterprising spirit of new scholars;

So a place was given, twelve of us drew lots, and I won in the end! "

After Qiu Sheng finished speaking in one breath, his face was full of light: "Hehe, they are extremely depressed, but if they draw again, they still have to lose to me!"

Xiaobao: "Draw lots? Did you write the lot? Write no in all, and then you throw away your share in the end?"

Qiu Sheng was shocked: "How do you know?"

Xiao Bao rolled his eyes straight: "I learned this trick from Meng Wu and the others, right? I taught them! In order to get to such a poor place, you also worked hard!"

Qiusheng: "..."

When Qiu Sheng said this, he saw Chu Qing who was sprinkled chili noodles on the grilled prawns for them on the stove lid, wiping away tears.

When Qiu Sheng saw it, why did he make his aunt cry?She hurriedly tried to persuade her, but unexpectedly, Chu Qing sniffled and sneezed again: "Ah! Xiaobao, why are you slapping me? The chili noodles slapped my face...Ah!"
