Chapter 549 Can’t even sleep

After the exam, many students were busy socializing. Today they went to a literary gathering, tomorrow they went to a poetry gathering, and the day after tomorrow they watched the scenery and recited poems with a few like-minded friends... In short, they were very busy.

.

Many people have taken advantage of this to become famous for their talents. So-and-so has a tongue-in-cheek battle with fellow scholars, so-and-so has quick thinking and writes good poetry, and so-and-so has good painting skills...

On the contrary, Wen Xizhou, who had been in the limelight before, showed no movement at all.

After Wen Xizhou took the exam, he also received many invitations, but he declined them all. The results of the provincial exam have not come out yet, so it is too early to be busy socializing now.

It is easy for a group of scholars to get drunk and get drunk. Who knows if they will say the wrong thing when they are excited? If someone takes advantage of them, the consequences will be disastrous.

Although Wen Xizhou is not that stupid, he is afraid of being implicated by others! After all, he has heard his mother say since he was a child: He is not afraid of opponents who are like gods, but he is afraid of teammates who are like pigs.

When I was a child, I thought this was funny, but when I grew up, I believed it deeply.

After the results are released, are you still worried that there will be no poetry and literature meetings?

Not to mention strangers, even Qin Junsheng made an appointment, and Wen Xizhou didn't agree. He stayed in the house and decorated his mother's clothes, taught his younger siblings about their homework, and picked up carvings by the way. He carved one for his sister.

"Self-portrait", I carved a set of twelve zodiac signs for my younger brother... At present, only the zodiac sign of Zhuang has been carved. As for finishing them all, ha, there is no rush anyway, just take your time carving!

Wen Jiuxiao couldn't see his eldest son being so leisurely and carefree, so he threw him a few books and asked him to sort them out. I remember the books were so messy that anyone else would have been blinded. Wen Xizhou knows how!

He is Yu Zhi's first child. How would a new mother know how to raise a child? Naturally, she taught him whatever she remembered. When he was a few years old, Yu Zhi even taught him how to do Olympiad math problems.

It only took Wen Xizhou one day to sort out the account book. When his father checked it, he didn't say anything, but he was very proud in his heart. His eldest son seemed to be even better than he thought!

"Do you want to join the household department?"

It's no wonder Wen Jiuxiao thinks this way, Wen Xizhou's data processing is so good that he was born to eat this kind of rice.

"I never thought about it." Wen Xizhou shook his head sincerely, "My son has just passed the provincial examination. As for the future... we will talk about it then."

This is the truest thought in Wen Xizhou's heart.

It is said that a tiger father has no dog sons. He has a smart and capable father. As a son, he cannot be too bad. So whether he is studying or practicing martial arts, he has never relaxed. He has also received a lot of praise along the way.

But when it comes to what to do in the future, Wen Xizhou really doesn’t have a clear goal.

He felt that it was something he would consider only after he succeeded in the imperial examination, and he had never really entered the officialdom. How could he know what he was more suitable for?

When he was a child, he had an ambition, that is, to be a captain and sail a big ship. When he grew up, he realized that he was naive as a child. As the heir to the Pingbei Hou Mansion, he could not leave his family's business to sail a big ship.

However, he has already sailed the big ship. Although he has not become the captain, he is the captain's son, which is equivalent to being the captain.

The days slipped through the fingers, and soon it was the day before the results were released. Yu Zhi was too excited to sleep again. Looking at this excited and anxious woman, Wen Jiuxiao silently moved to the bedside, not daring to offend her.

Not to be messed with!

His expression looked like he had eaten a lemon.

Also unable to sleep were the people of the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion.

Marquis Wu'an came back from the Guards specifically for the release of his eldest grandson's results. His eldest grandson was the one who took the exam before, so even if he doesn't get first place in the provincial exam this time, he should still be in the front.

The civil servants of the Daqing Dynasty were noble, and those civil servants looked down on military commanders. Those bitter scholars often laughed at him for being a martial artist. Hey, his old Wen family also had the seeds of reading. After his third son, his eldest grandson could read well.

Very good too.

He is waiting in the mansion to receive the good news tomorrow. If he is lucky, the eldest grandson might be able to get Jieyuan. He would like to see the envious and jealous faces of those villains.

Well, the eldest grandson has a long face!

Mrs. Hou had a similar idea. Ever since her eldest grandson entered the examination room, she had burned incense every day. Especially tonight, she knocked on wooden fish in the small Buddhist hall for half an hour, praying to the Buddha to bless her eldest grandson and win the first place in high school again.

If she really gets her wish, she will set up a flowing feast for three days so that everyone in the capital can come and rejoice.

She even thought about what kind of granddaughter-in-law she should hire. Her third daughter-in-law married blindly, which was her lifelong hatred. She had to carefully choose her granddaughter-in-law.

The family of military generals is not wanted, only the civil servants are noble. It is best for the father's official position to be no lower than the third rank... Mrs. Hou thought about it, the third child had his eldest grandson late, at least three years later than his peers. In other words, he was older than her.

The fathers of girls whose grandchildren are around the same age are about the same age as the third child, or even younger.

At this age... many people are still sixth or seventh grade officials.

This requirement is a bit high. Well, it doesn't matter if the father is mediocre, as long as the brother is capable.

She has to be the eldest daughter, not even the second daughter, because she cannot shoulder the heavy responsibility of the clan wife.

…

Mrs. Hou thought about it one by one in her mind, for fear of making any omissions. As she thought about it, it was midnight before she knew it, but Mrs. Hou was still very energetic.

As Wen Jiuxiao's brothers, from Wen Chengzong to Wen Chengyao and then to Wen Chengan, they all hoped that Wen Xizhou, his nephew, would do well in the exam.

All are prosperous. No matter how uncomfortable Wen Chengyao feels, he has to admit that his nephew is better and his uncle can also take advantage of it. After all, even if they have conflicts internally, it is their own family's business behind closed doors. But outsiders see them

But they are from the same family, and they all have the surname Wen.

In view of the little Jiujiu in his heart, he even hopes that his eldest nephew will pass high school, pass the imperial examination, pass the Jinshi, and be named on the gold list. The eldest nephew, like the third child, has embarked on the path of civil servants, so will the connections and resources in his father's hands fall to them?

Second bedroom?

The eldest brother has no son, and the fourth brother, well, what qualifications does he have to compete? Wen Chengyao didn't take the fourth brother seriously at all.

As long as his father is willing to pave the way for him, he can get up immediately. Even if he can't, he still has two sons. His eldest son is only slightly younger than his eldest nephew.

Wen Chengyao really didn't know what to do. He couldn't get promoted because his father didn't give him any help. Oh, since he was a teenager, Marquis Wu An has been putting a lot of thought into him, but in the end...it's so hard to admit that he is mediocre.

?

It is obviously very difficult for Wen Chengyao.

Wen Chengzong is his uncle, and he has no son, so he sees his eldest nephew as no different from his own son. Wen Chengan has always been close to his third wife, so naturally he sincerely wishes his eldest nephew well.

At this moment, the two of them were also speculating on their eldest nephew's results and were too excited to sleep.

Qin Yushuang is naturally looking forward to Wen Xizhou High School. The better her eldest nephew is and the more promising he is, the better she can bring up the matter of inheriting Zhuangzhuang.

Oh, there was another person who was tossing and turning and couldn't sleep, and that was Miss Fenye who entered Wenxizhou's courtyard but couldn't get close to him.
