Lu Jin thought for a while and said: "You are young, and you are all the future pillars of the country. It is time to study hard. How can you give up after one failure? If there is nothing to teach in the academy, you can also choose another one.

Find a famous teacher, study hard for a year or two and then take the scientific examination. If you fail the scientific examination, it is not too late to find another way out."

As he said that, he saw that several young boys were full of hope, so he pointed out a clear way for them, "Er Hu's husband is the best teacher and has some talent. He is the one who sat next to me when we were eating.

Hu studied with him for less than a year and passed the Tongsheng examination. He is also expected to pass the government examination next month. You may be able to worship him as your teacher."

Lin Erhu didn't study for long in the academy, but now he just studied with his husband and passed the junior college entrance examination in less than a year, which really makes these people excited.

After a few people gathered together, they thanked Lu Jin and asked Lin Erhu to take them to apprentice.

After sending away several scholars, Lin Xiaoman smiled and said, "You will really find things for your husband to do. He may scold you behind his back."

Lu Jin shook his head, "He scolded me, but in his heart he wanted to thank me. He is going to marry into Lin Dajiao's family. He can't carry it on his shoulders or lift it with his hands. He can't really let Lin Dajiao take care of him? Give him a few gifts.

Students can also get a few more trainings if they go there."

Lin Xiaoman heard what Lu Jin said and felt that what Lu Jin said was reasonable. Cultivators in the academy were not cheap, more than one tael of silver a month. If Xu Qiuliang could accept these students, he would earn nearly 10 taels of silver every month, although it was not as good as Lin Dajiao's farming.

Selling vegetables makes a lot of money, but the wind can't blow or the sun can't shine, and there's no need to worry that he will feel inferior because he has to be cared for by Lin Da.

Of course, she had never seen how to write the word inferiority in Xu Qiuliang.

Sure enough, an hour later, Lin Erhu came back alone. He said that Xu Qiuliang "reluctantly" left a few people behind for his sake. If Lu Jin had sent them there alone, he would have kicked them out.

Lu Jin rolled his eyes, and Lin Xiaoman snickered: The teacher and the student obviously care about each other very much. Lu Jin even went from the capital to Qingping County to be the county magistrate for Xu Qiuliang, but he just can't talk well.

When Lu Jin went back, Lin Xiaoman brought him a few cans of beef sauce that he had stir-fried himself, so that when he was busy and had no time to eat, he could use it to mix rice or dip steamed buns, and it was also great to mix with noodles.

What Lu Jin thought about was that if he could take Lin Xiaoman with him, he would still find time to eat the food she cooked even if he didn't have time.

Alas, after the county government chef learned a few tricks from Lin Xiaoman, his cooking skills improved a lot, but the taste was still far behind. Lu Jin always felt that the reason why Lin Xiaoman's cooking was delicious was not just the techniques.

, she specified that she had some exclusive seasoning that others didn’t know about.

At the end of the seventh lunar month, Lin Xiaoman gave over the salted duck eggs that he had promised to Grandma Chen. Because they were for making mooncakes, the duck eggs were always saltier.

The ones we made at home were not enough, so we bought some from other people in the village. They all tasted great. After tasting them, Grandma Chen was very satisfied and attracted many customers to Lin Xiaoman.

Lin Xiaoman has sold almost all the duck eggs in the village that can be used to make salted egg yolks, and is about to go to the government to test them.

This time Lin Xiaoman plans to accompany Lin Erhu to Fucheng, and Xu Qiuliang will also go with him.

Uncle Lin and Mrs. Yao will also accompany Lin Wenyao, and the three younger children in the family will also go with them, so that the whole family will go out together.

Lu Jin said that he had something to do in Fucheng, so he took Qingshu and a few guards with him.

Lin Xiaoman, Lin Erhu and Xu Qiuliang sat in the carriage sent by Lu Jin, and their own donkey carriage was lent to Lin Wenyao's family.

It takes two days to walk from Qingping County to Wuzhou Prefecture. The road is full of scholars going to Wuzhou Prefecture. Almost all the inns are full. Fortunately, Lu Jin sent people to take care of things in advance, so that they will not sleep on the streets.

But even so, there was a lot of noise everywhere, and in the middle of the night there were scholars shaking their heads and reciting books, making it so noisy that people couldn't sleep peacefully.

When they arrived at Wuzhou Prefecture, they didn't stay at an inn. Instead, Lu Jin had people come over in advance to rent a house. It was not far from the government office, so he didn't have to get up too early to take the exam in the morning.

Lin Wenyao was a little nervous, and from time to time he would ask Xu Qiuliang to point out something he didn't understand. Xu Qiuliang didn't feel bothered either. He was always very rigorous in teaching students, not afraid that you wouldn't learn, but just afraid that you wouldn't learn.

Thinking about it, Lin Erhu seemed a little ignorant in comparison. He had never touched a book since he set out, and he just enjoyed the scenery on the road every day.

After settling down, he climbed a tree in the yard to reach the autumn pears on the tree. He almost fell off several times. Lin Xiaoman was so angry that he bounced his head twice without too much force, "You are acting like this every day."

Like a monkey, the exam is about to end, why don’t you feel worried?”

Lin Erhu covered his head with an innocent look on his face, "Sister, why did you do it?"

When Xu Qiuliang saw this, he cursed angrily: "That's right! If you don't study hard, you only know how to play."

Lu Jin was enjoying himself secretly.

Lin Wenyao in the house looked out the window and felt envious. Why didn't he have a brain as smart as Erhu? He could only make up for his weakness with hard work.

There were still a few days until the exam started. Lin Xiaoman had nothing to do and wanted to go shopping on the street. Lu Jin really had something to do, so he went to the dental shop and hired a woman to accompany Lin Xiaoman.

The woman is in her thirties and has been working as a handyman in Wuzhou Prefecture all year round. She is very familiar with the situation in the city. She can talk about which cloth shop has the best cloth and which rouge shop sells the most fragrant rouge. Occasionally, she can talk about which shop sells it.

Lin Xiaoman was shocked when he heard the gossip.

Lin Xiaoman asked her to take him to the cloth shop, and sure enough, he saw the materials that shopkeeper Feng had bought before.

After asking about the price, she was told the same thing as Shopkeeper Feng. It seemed that Shopkeeper Feng didn't earn her a penny, so Lin Xiaoman ordered a batch of ingredients here and had them delivered to Lu Jin's rented place.

Zhaizi.

When we go back, we can load them on a carriage and send them there without worrying about selling them.

Although using the money here to buy fabrics and selling them there, not only would she not make any money, she would even have to lose some money, but it is not easy to make money there. With money, she can buy things there and sell them at high prices here.

In the end, you will always make more money.

Thinking that Aunt Qi would have her birthday in a few days, Lin Xiaoman went to the nearby jewelry store and bought a set of beautiful imperial green jewelry, including a necklace, a jade pendant, two bracelets, and a pair of earrings.

It must be worth tens of millions over there, but here it only costs two hundred taels. Lin Xiaoman seems to have found a way to make money again.

Fortunately, she brought a lot of silver notes, so she immediately bought all the jade stones she liked in this jewelry shop, which shocked the woman who brought her here.

Judging from her clothes, she thought that Lin Xiaoman was a poor relative from a wealthy family in the city who was too lazy to hang out with her, so she invited her over. Now that she is not a poor relative, she can't say that Wuzhou Prefecture is looking for such a big deal.

There is no second one, but generally few ladies from wealthy families would dare to buy like this.
