I finally got my wish and won the title of Scholar!
And he’s still a first-class junior student!
Qi Yu looked up to the sky and sighed, feeling as if he was in a dream, with a sense of satisfaction that his efforts were finally rewarded lingering in his heart.
Yin Jun ranked tenth. As he said, perhaps because he did not dare to give up on the policy topics, his results were compromised. However, he still ranked among the ranks of Lin students.
It is not difficult to see that his arithmetic is also very extraordinary.
Even though they are both junior students, they are still ahead of him!
Qi Yu smiled inwardly: "Small, are you convinced this time?"
Again, your uncle is still your uncle!
…
At this moment, Yin Jun, who was deliberately avoiding embarrassment, suddenly felt a chill on his neck, as if he had been drenched with some liquid.
Huh? It’s not raining!
As for Qi Jing, he played steadily as always and was still in the middle of the pack.
Unsurprisingly, there are still two completely different faces at the bottom of the list. Those who won are very high-spirited, while those who failed are like mourning.
Just like the famous saying in the imperial examination: one rises to the clouds, the other sinks to the bottom of the well.
Especially the elderly children, they dance crazily and sadly, which is really sad.
Qi Yu's heart felt chilly. He really didn't dare to think about how he would deal with himself if such a day came.
The imperial examination is like an old-themed movie that is broadcast every three years. The general plot and ending are completely the same. The only difference is the faces of the actors.
Be happy but not obscene, sad but not sad, life must go on.
It didn’t take long to look at the list. In less than half an hour, the bustling crowd slowly dispersed.
Qi Yu also started to pack his bags.
Later, Qi Jing came to say goodbye. He was eager to go home to tell the good news, so he was in no mood to stay here longer.
"Shaocheng, farewell!"
"Brother Qi, take care of yourself!"
…
For Qi Yu, there is one more thing to do, which is to say goodbye to Mr. Wenzhu.
Meng Lanshan was very happy for his success and said a few words of encouragement. At the same time, he also pointed out some shortcomings in his answer. Qi Yu accepted it with an open mind and benefited a lot.
There is no end to learning!
Facts have proved that there is still a gap between myself and the great scholar.
In a word, the imperial examination has not yet succeeded, and scholars still need to work hard.
"Now that you are a student, the next step is to take the exam. What I want to tell you is that the provincial examination is different from the children's examination and the college examination. There is only one subject every three years. If calculated according to time, the next
The subject should be scheduled for the year after next." Meng Lanshan said slowly.
In other words, this year and next, I can study with peace of mind and no longer have to rush for exams.
"That's good, students can also take the opportunity to settle down for a while and lay a solid foundation."
"That's right..." However, Meng Lanshan changed his tone and said something puzzling: "However, I still hope you won't slack off. In some cases, no one can say for sure about the imperial examination.
Is it ahead of schedule?"
How to understand this sentence?
The rural examination is held every three years. This is basic common sense. How could it be brought forward?
Seeing Qi Yu's confusion, Meng Lanshan smiled calmly and said, "Anyway, you just need to make more preparations."
"Yes! Shaocheng will definitely not slack off."
"You have to carefully analyze "Dengke Gathering" and it is best to be able to understand it comprehensively. It will definitely benefit you greatly during the provincial examination."
Qi Yu responded and kept it in his mind.
Meng Lanshan thought for a while and then warned: "You must keep it secret and never mention it to others about what I just said."
Qi Yu trembled when he heard this and was a little confused: "Why?"
"Don't ask why, just remember it." Meng Lanshan seemed unwilling to say more.
…
After leaving the Meng Mansion, Qi Yu was ready to return home.
It has been more than a month since I was separated from my family, and I miss you more and more deeply.
Especially when I think of my family, I am even more anxious to return home.
In order to save some money, Qi Yu even found a few fellow villagers who were traveling together and shared a car with them to Lanshan County. Then he hired a car alone and then transferred to his hometown of Taohua Village.
When I settled in the county town, I felt a little hesitant.
Do you want to go to the two uncles' houses to announce the good news first?
However, when I thought of my pregnant wife and kind mother, I gave up the idea of staying.
It's never too late for him to come again, it's a matter of morning and evening.
Hit the road!
Familiar country roads, familiar grass and trees, the feeling of hometown is still so friendly.
Alas, although my hometown is good, it is not a place for hard work.
Qi Yu sighed with emotion.
…
Little did he know that an unexpected scene was taking place in Qi Yu's house at this time.
Two flowers bloom, one on each side.
In front of the current Qijia courtyard, a large group of people are gathering. If you look closely, you can see that most of them are villagers who are watching. However, in the middle of the crowd, standing are members of the Qijia clan.
At the front are Qi Qiuchuan and his wife, followed by the patriarch Qi Zhuchang and others.
opposite.
Liu Quan had a big belly, her hands on her hips, and stared at everyone in the Qi family fiercely. Her face was dusty and dirty, which was very different from her usual sober appearance.
Ms. Zhou, on the other hand, had a blank look on her face. She squatted down on a piece of bluestone in frustration. Xiaotong pitifully snuggled into her grandma's arms and took a nap, seemingly very sleepy.
Looking at Qijia's courtyard again, it is now a ruins!
Obviously, this home suffered a fire and was completely reduced to ruins. To this day, there is still black smoke in some places, and there is a burning smell in the air.
Yes, this home no longer exists. The fire burned it thoroughly, leaving only ashes.
…
Not far away, a bald man with bruises all over his body was seen lying on the ground. He was moaning and groaning, as if he had been seriously injured.
Liu Quan recognized this man, and Xiao Tong hated him. He was the bald man who was scared away by Qi Yu when he was burning incense and worshiping Buddha.
According to Qi Yu's words, this man's crime was so heinous that even death would not be enough to cover up his guilt!
Looking at it now, he really deserves to die!
Just last night, a fire suddenly broke out in Qi Yu's house!
Xiaotong, who was urinating in the latrine, saw this scene with her own eyes and the whole process.
It was this bald man who deliberately set the fire. Then, the wind took advantage of the fire, and the fire took advantage of the wind's power, and it quickly burned.
She was so scared that she opened her milky voice and shouted loudly: Someone come quickly! Someone is setting fire to it!
The bald man had a guilty conscience as a thief, so he didn't dare to care about it, and he didn't dare to linger. After he succeeded, he simply chose to escape.
Coincidentally, before he could even run a few steps, he was knocked to the ground by some villagers who happened to be passing by.
In the eyes of country people, arson is different from theft. It is a very vicious method. As long as the fire is not careful, the entire village can be destroyed!
Therefore, arsonists have always been found and beaten by everyone!
No matter what the reason is, beat him first and then talk about it!
If you still can’t get rid of your hatred by ‘beating’, then just change to ‘hammer’!
"Ouch~~~"
With a horrible cry, the bald man fell directly to the ground. All his limbs were fractured and several ribs were broken. If it weren't for his rough skin and thick flesh, and his ability to withstand a blow, his life would have been in danger.
Already.
After a lot of practice, you can tell from the shape that he is still a human being.
While the neighbors were performing all-out martial arts, another thrilling thing happened.
…
Xiaotong, she became more and more frightened as she looked at the rising flames.
I had suffered a lot before, but my father and mother gave me a warm home. Although my grandma didn't love me, she would still pick up food for me.
But now there is a fire, and my mother and grandma are still in the house. They will be burned to death...
How to do how to do?
Go to an adult for help? It's too late. It seems you have to find a solution on your own.
Don't be afraid, don't be afraid...
She suppressed the fear in her heart, struggled to pull off the quilt drying in the yard, and then threw it into the water tank.
The water-soaked quilt was very heavy, and she tried her best to pull it out bit by bit.
It’s so heavy! I can’t carry it...
In desperation, she came up with another idea.
Kneel on the ground first, and then put the wet quilt on your body, which will make it easier to drag.
Just like that, she knelt on the ground and crawled in slowly, and then decisively got into the fire.
Before the fire, Liu Quan and Zhou were talking in the west room. When they noticed something unusual, it was already too late...
Just when she was feeling desperate, she saw a little thing crawling on the ground. When she got closer, she saw Xiaotong sticking her head out: "Mom, grandma, get under this quilt quickly, it's not hot at all in here."
, we can climb out with it on our backs."
surprise!
Without thinking, Liu Quan grabbed the soft bundle beside her with one hand, put her mother-in-law's waist in the other, and without thinking, got into the fire-proof quilt.
As a result, the three women Qi Yu cared about most were saved...
Lucky and safe!
After escaping from danger, Mrs. Zhou held Xiaotong in her arms, with tears in her eyes, and kissed her granddaughter one by one.
Yes! This kid is so affectionate!
It wasn't until this moment that Mrs. Zhou finally put aside her grudge and truly recognized her adopted granddaughter.
The fire was finally put out, but the home was also burned down.
Liu Quan took out the sword that he was reluctant to throw away from his bag, and walked towards the bald man with his eyes full of anger.
"Tell me! Why did you burn my home? If you don't tell the truth, I will kill you!"
This sentence made all the men present feel trembling in their hearts.
Crotch chicken decisive decision?
"Don't tell me? I'll..."
"Ouch~~"
Ah!
Everyone was breaking out in a cold sweat. Madam Qi didn't just talk, she really dared to take action!
How can a bald man dare to persevere?
"I said~~~"
…
The truth is shocking and surprising!
According to the bald man's explanation, he did this under the instruction of Qi Qiuchuan!
Why?
The reason is that in the case of his third son Qi Yuanli, it was because of Qi Yu's failure to help that his son was sent to the army. Therefore, this account must be recorded on Qi's head.
So, the couple decided to take revenge and found the bald man and his party through some kind of relationship. The reward was ten taels of silver!
Under the heavy reward, there must be a brave man!
Liu Quan sighed: What a generous act!
In addition, the bald man also admitted two other accounts, one for beating Sun Dacai and killing Xiaotong's parents, which were all done by his group.
Surprisingly, Qi Qiuchuan was also the one who beat up Sun Dacai. The reason was that since he decided to take revenge, Qi Yu's sister's family could not let him go.
Qi Qiuchuan!
Liu Quan was completely angered.
…
Early the next morning, before Liu Quan could go to find him, Qi Qiuchuan came over in the name of 'condolences'.
Faced with the accusation, Qi Qiuchuan naturally firmly denied it. He knew very well that if he admitted it, he would go to jail. Therefore, he had to prevent Liu Quan from reporting to the police.
You know, once the government gets involved, it is very likely to be exposed.
However, Liu Quan is not afraid!
They all want the lives of my family members, so what dignity do I have left?
Seeing that Qi Qiuchuan could no longer bully her, he brought in the entire family to increase his prestige and at the same time increase pressure on Liu Quan.
After weighing the pros and cons, the Qi family members actually all sided with Qi Qiuchuan. His family had five sons, so how could he offend him?
In this era, men are a symbol of strength. The tribesmen stand in line like this, probably because they are aware of current affairs.
But, what’s the point?
Liu Quan held up the blood-stained sword and said nothing, just staring at everyone coldly.
However, deep in her heart she was calling: My husband, when will you come back?
