Chapter 364
In the last few days of late April, the highly anticipated examination of the society was finally about to begin.
And one night before this, many people in the Qin Mansion had no intention of falling asleep. Of course, this did not include the candidate Qin Yong.
Because he didn't have any so-called "utilitarianism" for this exam. If he could pass the exam, it would be the best. Even if he couldn't pass the exam, he could be a no-no from now on.
The worry-free rich man, so what else should I worry about?
Besides, even if he really can't pass the exam, as a student recommended by Hanshan Academy, he will definitely be on the list. However, by that time, the ranking will probably be lower, so for the sake of face.
It's not easy to have a meal.
Of course, this is something he doesn't care much about now, so naturally he didn't take it to heart. But what he didn't expect was that although he was not at all concerned about this exam.
However, most of the people around him couldn't sleep well, so when he saw the next morning, the butcher Qin, Liu Luoyao, and even Lin Daier, they all had a pair of them.
When he was in Panda's eyes, he was really shocked.
"Yong'er, did you sleep well last night?"
When the butcher Qin saw Qin Yong, he immediately came forward and said with great enthusiasm.
In fact, he didn't sleep well last night, but he had never slept. Because he knew very well that Qin Yong's exam was actually related to the honor of their entire Qin family.
Because once Qin Yong is in high school, he will be a dignified Jinshi master. By that time, he will be completely free from the identity of "son of merchants". Moreover, their Qin family can be called "the son of a merchant" in the future.
It's a scholarly family. Because, in your school, there is a Jinshi master. And every year's exam, how many Jinshi masters can be produced in the whole world? There are only a few hundred people.
Therefore, if this cannot be called a scholarly family, what else can be called a scholarly family?
However, Qin Yong did not have such enlightenment. In his opinion, is this a scholarly family? What's the point? Anyway, as long as you have money in your hands, you can still live a very happy life.
"Don't worry, my father-in-law, the official had a sleep until dawn last night and had never woken up in the middle!"
When Qin Yong heard the question from Butcher Qin, he had not answered yet. As a result, Liu Luoyao was already rushing to say.
In fact, like Butcher Qin, she didn't sleep all night the night before. Not only that, she was worried that if she turned around randomly, it would probably affect Qin Yong's rest, so she basically kept it all night.
She didn't dare to move in one position, but the result was that when she was about to get up, most of her body became numb. However, it was precisely because of this that she realized that Qin Yong slept well last night.
Therefore, at this time, we naturally have to say it out and make others happy.
"Uh. Yes, Daddy, the boy slept well last night!"
Qin Yong naturally agreed with Liu Luoyao's words, because this is a fact after all.
But, after hearing such simple words, Butcher Qin was very happy and said, "Okay, okay, that's good! That's good! Then we'll prepare to set off!"
I ate breakfast early in the morning, and everyone knows that today is the day of their young master's big exam. So even the kitchen has started construction early.
Of course, what was prepared was not only breakfast, but also lunch and dinner for the young master that day, and even breakfast and lunch for the next day.
Because, although the imperial examination process in the Great Zhou Dynasty was not like some dynasties in later generations, it took several days and nights to take the exam, but two days and one night was necessary, and the court also
It is impossible to prepare meals for all candidates. After all, it is also a team of thousands of people, so most candidates can bring their own food.
Most of these foods can only be dry food, because if it is other foods, after two days and one night, it is very likely that they will be rotten by the time they are about to eat.
Of course, this is not a complete limitation. If you are not afraid of eating cold food, you can bring some such meals on the first day for lunch and dinner. However, it definitely doesn't taste much. At the same time, it also tastes like this.
There is no scent of the fragrance.
The food prepared by the Qin family for Qin Yong naturally also includes dry food, and it is the snack produced by their "Qin's Dessert House".
After all, their dim sum has already reached the best level of all Bianliang City. Besides the butter cakes, many other dim sums, such as egg rolls and cookies, are all
It can be preserved for a long time, so Qin Yong naturally didn't think about it. If he wanted to bring dry food, these snacks were naturally the first choice.
However, in addition to these snacks, he actually brought a lot of food, including steamed beef, stewed chicken soup, etc. However, his food was packed in some strange containers.
This container is nothing else, but some bamboo tubes thicker than arms. Qin Yong asked people to prepare in advance, and the purpose is naturally to keep it warm. Moreover, in order to keep it warm, he also made quite a design.
That is to peel off one layer of one end of the bamboo tube with a knife and then put it on with the other end, which is just enough to cover it. In this way, it can prevent heat from being lost as much as possible. And
, outside the bamboo tube, he also planned to wrap it with a lot of quilts. In this way, it would be fine if he wanted to have a bite of hot rice in the exam room.
However, if his thoughts fall into the eyes of other candidates, it will definitely be unreasonable.
Because, completely different from him, many poor scholars who are ashamed in their pockets will even choose to stay hungry during the two days and one night of exams. After all, eating will take a lot of time.
Yes, they are not willing to waste any little time during this exam.
Moreover, if they can usually bring them to the examination room, they usually only have those extremely unpalatable foods. So instead of wasting time eating these dry foods that didn’t taste, it would be better to answer the questions hungry.
Because in their opinion, if there is a little more time, they can't say that they can come up with one of the propositions. In this way, they may even be on the list of titles. Therefore,
If such a great temptation exists, even if they are hungry, they will be "a hundred times more energetic".
But Qin Yongke is not as stupid as them. He has to be hungry for two days and one night for the sake of the exam? What is this joke? If he really gets so hungry, will he still be in the mood to take the exam?
?Qin Yong made such a statement, so Qin Butcher Qin and Liu Luoyao finally agreed to him to bring those ordinary meals into the examination room. However, they also told Qin Yong to eat.
, then you have to eat as soon as possible! After all, the time to stay in the examination room is limited.
But for Qin Yong, is this time really limited? No, on the contrary, in his opinion, the time for this exam is really too much.
After all, if you take the exam like the one in later schools, when did you ever hear that it was a subject and you had to take the exam for several days in a row?
Of course, if you are divided into several different subjects, it will indeed take several days to complete the exam. However, there will be a lot of time in between, allowing the candidates to
Come out to have a meal and have a good rest.
However, the imperial examination in the Great Zhou Dynasty was not the case. Although it only had one subject, it had to take two consecutive days and one night. Therefore, this time was indeed much for Qin Yong.
It's not possible. Because his original plan was just to copy. He could think of any poem that matches the title from some famous articles in later generations, and he would naturally write it immediately. And if
