Chapter 263 Dad, go take the imperial examination!

"Then I didn't say anything wrong, right?" Yan Laoer tried hard to remember what he and the other party had been chatting about.

"No." Yan Yu was particularly impressed by his father's point of view. He watched Kazuto talk a lot from the bottom of his heart, avoiding all the important things.

"You have to be careful when dealing with these people. If you miss a sentence or even a sentence, it will be troublesome." Yan Laoer added: "I don't know if there are any of our fellow villagers in Gu Feng. If there are..."

Yan Yu stopped supporting the raft and took the wooden pole back and put it on the raft.

The speed of the raft suddenly slowed down.

Blending with the water, it floats away leisurely.

"Dad, aren't we stupid? We want to rely on that little medicine to save people, but we don't overestimate our capabilities, and it's a drop in the bucket. Are we the ones talking about this?"

Yan Laoer sighed.

He knew that the child, like him, had this matter in his heart and it would not be easy to get over it.

"Dabao! We can use as much strength as we want..."

Yan Yu interrupted him: "Dad, I know, I understand all the principles and understand them all."

I just feel uncomfortable.

Life is like grass.

Go with the flow.

Ordinary people cannot decide their own lives.

Why do they appear outside Gufeng City? It's because those people, just like my own family, are all fleeing from famine!

When I couldn't survive in my hometown, I came out and wanted to find a way for myself and my family to survive.

"But Dad, too many people have died." Their first impression of Gu Feng was the carts of corpses.

There were also people who were being carried aside one after another outside the city.

I heard from the yamen servant named Shi Shu that they not only buried this time in the morning, but also had to go there later in the evening, not once a day, but several times a day...

How many people will die?

Many times, corpses everywhere are just an adjective to describe a tragic scene.

But Yan Yu couldn't help but wonder if such a scene would really happen in front of her eyes if no one collected and disposed of the body.

Obviously, they have arrived in Guanzhou and have escaped the drought. They are about to settle down and take root here again and start a new life just like their own family.

All was lost to disease.

What's even more ridiculous is that this disease is not incurable.

Just look at the sharp contrast between Huju City and Gufeng City.

If you think about it carefully, you can naturally think of the difference.

where?

People are different!

If the person in charge is different and the people working underneath are different, the fate of the people in a city will change drastically.

"Dad, tell me, if Mr. Tian were in Gufeng City, would so many people still die?"

Yan Laoer thought for a while and said pertinently: "I can't say for sure that Huju City will get better. I'm not boasting. We do have a little bit of credit in it, like our masks, which kept them isolated...

We also go to distant places to buy medicine. People in our village don’t do anything anymore and go into the mountains every day...

And Dr. An, dares to administer strong medicine..."

"Master Arita alone is not enough, we have to work together."

Yan Yu: "Yes, but the eldest master's decision is also very important. Dad, you have heard it, right? They know our method of seizing the city. Mr. Tian has already sent an official document, and we have the prescription."

There are all kinds of isolation methods, but they are useless, they don’t use them..."

"If we don't change the prescription, can we still call it prudent? Is it so difficult to place people separately?"

Yan Yu asked himself and answered: "It is quite difficult. We need to send more people to circle the area for them and prevent them from moving around.

Make clear rice soup for them.

It’s not just about what they eat, drink, or what they eat, you also have to take care of their cleanliness and hygiene.

To get the right medicine, you must first identify what kind of disease they have, and use different medicines according to the priority, and use several cauldrons to boil the medicine, each one is different..."

Yan Yu sighed leisurely: "It's so difficult!"

Yan Laoer said nothing.

He knew that his daughter was speaking sarcastically.

"Dad, do you still remember what uncle said?" Yan Yu's clear eyes turned around and met Yan Lao'er. Yan Lao'er could even see his own face from inside.

He asked: "Which sentence?"

I vaguely remembered something.

Sure enough, his daughter repeated Lao Yan’s words:

"He is incompetent at the top and has no achievements at the bottom. Is such an official good?"

Yan Yu: "Dad, actually it doesn't matter whether the eldest son of Gu Fengcheng is a good official.

It's just that people in a city all rely on this one person to survive. Whether he is dedicated and capable is so important to this city and the people in it!"

Yan Laoer wiped his face: "Your uncle's great wish is to bring peace to the people and help the world."

Even now, when he recalls Lao Yan's expression, movements, and tone when he spoke that day, he still feels agitated.

"If it were the uncle, he would definitely not let Gu Feng fall into such a dangerous situation. Even without us, I believe the uncle can come up with a way." Yan Yu's tone was firm, not because he trusted this so-called protagonist of the world in the book.

, but because of the trust they have gained from getting along with Lao Yan for a long time and gradually deepening their understanding!

Yan Huaiwen, Lao Yan, her uncle, is a reliable person!

"The same goes for Mr. Tian. Just by looking at the preparations he has made for the victims, you can tell that he is a caring person!" Yan Yu's voice became louder, as if he was competing with the green peaks on both sides in the soothing river.

"Mr. Tian did not let the victims starve. He cooked rice soup instead of porridge. He even held multiple posts in the official office, but he still took good care of the victims. This is not our era. The people here are afraid of official duties and they are obedient.

, obedient, especially obedient.

All they need is someone to help them get out of trouble.

Even if you just give them a little chance, they can live optimistically.

Seeing a little hope is like having your life illuminated."

Yan Yu paused and calmed down his high spirits.

Her voice lowered: "Dad, lucky to have you, lucky to have us together."

If she were alone, she would be at a loss and not know how to face life here.

Maybe I can survive, but it will definitely be completely different from now.

She is well protected by her parents. She is over 20 years old, but she is still like a child, always "gnawing at the old age", both materially and spiritually.

She draws more from the latter, relies on them, and gets courage and strength from them.

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! She can do whatever she wants and be willful, because she knows that her parents will tolerate her and love her.

Her father would go crazy with her and make trouble with her, while her mother would say disgusting words but always look at her with a smile.

Yan Laoer suddenly felt distressed.

I feel sorry for his daughter.

In fact, his eldest daughter is not a nervous child, she is very delicate and sensitive.

She looks like she is laughing and joking, but in fact she can see everything clearly and knows it well.

She has no high pursuits, she just wants to live a simple and happy life.

But here, in this world, this happiness is no longer simple.

If it's just that my family is living well and the village where I live is good, is that considered good?

If his eldest son was more selfish and hard-hearted, he should be able to live a good life.

But she is not!

Not a real child.

Her thoughts have been shaped, and the environment in which she grew up is comfortable and peaceful.

Her biggest worry in the past was how to carry her mother behind her back and squeeze out some time to "not do her job" besides her busy studies...

"Daughter, don't be afraid. You have a father, and he is on top of everything. Look at your size, even if the sky falls, it won't be able to crush you." Yan Laoer deliberately said it casually.

He didn't know how to comfort his daughter, and it felt useless to say anything.

Because his daughter will figure it out on her own.

"Dad! You go and take the imperial examination!"

Yan Yu said something that shocked Yan Laoer's jaw.

"What? Me? What?"

Yan Yu: "Fortunately, the eldest man from Gu Fengcheng didn't come over today. If he came over, you wouldn't be able to fool around like you did in Huju City. You'd have to kneel down to see him."

This is how ordinary people are treated.

Yan Laoer took a few deep breaths: "I can do it. I can kneel down. It will be easy to ask your mother to sew it up for me later."

Yan Yu:……

Although you have to adapt to this world.

Dad, you don’t need to take yourself too seriously.

"Dad, please try your best and come back as a child student. Not only will you no longer have to kneel down, but you will also be able to say a few words in front of the great master."

Yan Yu feels this is particularly important.

As a commoner, people don't value your opinion at all.

How could Mr. Tian from Huju City accept the mask so easily and let Yan Laoer go out to buy medicine?

She believed that it had a lot to do with her uncle's status as a scholar and his job as an errand in Huju.

Moreover, my father is very tired every time he interacts with others.

Her father is sincere and friendly, and doesn't mind their cold faces at first, and uses his warm face to show off to others.

But in this world of distinct classes.

When you look at people, you don’t look at their faces. You really look at their clothes first.

That is, human identity.

The younger brother of a scholar may be the younger brother of a scholar or a great master in the future...

Does dad want to go down with his brother all the way?

At least, as a child?

I used to look down on him, but now I understand my uncle's good intentions.

"I have nothing to do to get in front of the eldest master, I don't care." Yan Laoer said: "Every place has its own customs. I follow the locals when I go to the countryside. What's wrong with me kneeling when I see an official? How many times can I see him? If I hadn't caught up with this epidemic,

The old man came out for a walk if he had nothing to do, and I couldn’t see anyone."

Compared with kneeling down and taking the exam, he chose to kneel down.

"Dad, the exam here in Guanzhou is easy. Just study as hard as you want. I know the progress of my elder brother's homework. My uncle said that he has no problem passing the exam. Really, just read through the book and memorize it. It's not difficult.

." Yan Yu tried to persuade him.

Yan Laoer shook his head repeatedly: "Don't fool me. I've made it clear. It's not true that the arts here are not popular. They are all serious people who have studied hard knowledge and can't understand it.

, because there is no one to teach, but the foundation is solid. The Four Books and Five Classics, not to mention memorizing them backwards, are almost the same. Just mention a sentence, and there are other saints' words, and you can recite them up and down. Which book is it from and who wrote it?

I know all the circumstances under which it was written!"

Yan Yu didn't expect her father to inquire so carefully.

"Look, dad, isn't it just memorizing books? You should memorize them too. If you memorize two books a month, it will be enough for the start of the new year."

Yan Laoer is still nagging: "How many months will it take me? What's the point of studying hard for several years? My daughter, your father is not good at studying. If I could study, would you still have such a happy childhood?

?Just because I know how hard it is to study, I don’t ask as much from you as your mother does.”

Yan Yu:……

"Dad, you are so good! Just because you are so good, we must pass the exam." Yan Yu gritted his teeth and said.

"Why?" Yan Laoer was confused.

"Think about it, if you could also be an official, how happy would it be to be the people under your command?"

Yan Laoer:......

The hand was raised tremblingly, and then put down tremblingly.

"You...daughter! You go ahead, dad supports you. You are pretending to be a man, joining the army for your father. You can take the exam for your poor old father. You can do it, no problem. Dad likes you."

What's this? I'm afraid his eldest son is crazy and wants him to be an official. Why not let him go to heaven!

A woman disguised as a man...do you think she didn't think about it? She couldn't pass the verification of her identity, and she couldn't pass the household registration check.

"Dad, look, Uncle Liang is just a boy. Mr. Tian has asked him to be the household secretary. It's great to work in the yamen. He will be prestigious when he goes out, and he will get extra money, uncle's filial piety money, and some other things.

The income is quite a lot." Yan Yu's little eyes rolled around.

Yan Laoer didn't want to be fooled: "I can still make money at home, and now my income has steadily surpassed that of your uncle."

"What about social status?"

"There is your uncle, he is a scholar, and I am the younger brother of a scholar. No one looks down on me."

“It’s better to have it yourself than anyone else!”

"That's my eldest brother, we are not separated, what's his is mine.

What's wrong with me being a part of his glory? I don't do anything wrong either."

"Dad! If you want your voice to be more powerful, you have to stand at a higher position."

"As long as your uncle is there, he stands tall. Whatever you want to do, just go to him."

"Dad! You are my dad!"

"Your uncle is your uncle, and your uncle is also your father. He is also your old father. You can respect him and respect him just like you love your father."

Yan Yu:……

Hey! This doesn’t convince you yet, does it?

"Dad, didn't you say that we have to do some things by ourselves? Others can't do it, and neither can my uncle. You see, this is the case with this medicine. Everything you can think of, and everything I can think of, we need to rely on others."

"Give me some time and think about it. I don't believe it. If you want to succeed in this matter, you have to work in a government office, be an official, and take the exam..." Yan Laoer said angrily: "I don't, I can definitely do it.

Find a way!"

Yan Yu:……

His father is usually not stubborn, but this is how much he resents and... fears about studying!



The closer we get to Changping, the more and more boats there are on the river.

There were small boats, flat boats, and people like them who supported rafts.

When I saw their strange raft, I couldn't help but take a second look.

The water flow in this section is getting stronger, and it is not convenient for a child like Yan Yu to hold the pole in front of others.

Yan Laoer can only do it by himself.

Fortunately, it only takes a few adjustments and a few simple strokes, so it doesn't take much effort.

Yan Laoer did what he did.

After walking like this for another hour, we saw a busy pier in the distance.

On the edge of the pier, large boats and small boats appear to be in a mess, but in fact they are tied to the shore in an orderly manner.

Yan Laoer carefully leaned over the pole.

The shouting became increasingly clear.

"That raft over there, come closer, come closer." Someone shouted to him.

Yan Laoer pointed to himself and asked: "You're calling me?"

"Yes, it's you. Who else is there? You look strange. Where did you come from? Hurry up and come closer. There happens to be an empty space here."
