The behavior after passing the college entrance examination is actually not much different from that of students who passed the college entrance examination in later generations. Especially before the transcripts come out, the mentality is generally very similar.
Some people let go of everything to have fun. Eating and drinking is just a side trip, and visiting scenic spots is not uncommon. There are even those who are carefree and simply go to some alleys to catch and fight with each other.
Others recall with trepidation, recalling the years of hard work they have put into studying, recalling the ardent expectations of their parents and family, recalling whether a certain sentence was appropriate when they took the exam, and even recalling that when they first fell in love, they determined to pass the Jinshi examination and go back to marry the villagers. That girl...
In fact, in the final analysis, everyone is just nervous. The former type of people use crazy venting to make themselves forget their tension, while the latter type are so nervous that they simply cannot get out.
Is Gao Pragmatic nervous? In fact, he is quite nervous. Although he has a higher chance of passing the Northern Examination Examination than the Southern Examination Examination, he is a well-known figure for a long time. Even Zhu Yijun would find it difficult because of his background, and it would be even more embarrassing for him personally.
At the very least, you have already passed the 300th place in the examination. It is not easy to pick you up to 200th place in the imperial examination at once, so that you can be narrowed down to the group of people who have the opportunity to choose Shujishi? So Gao pragmatism is also very nervous.
Moreover, he couldn't find a group of people of the same year to share his nervousness like other candidates - most of them lived in some kind of fellow village hall, or they rented an inn near Gongyuan with their friends. After everyone finished the exam, You can brag and spank together, even beat horses and horses, play chess, discuss history, etc., to pass the time and relieve the tension.
However, Gao pragmatism is different. His hometown is actually in the capital, and there are no influential people in Henan who are worthy of his close friendship. Naturally, he will not live in the Henan Guild Hall, but in his home in the capital, alone.
Except for attending a small banquet and a big banquet, Gao Pragmatic stayed at home all the time, dealing with industry matters and pondering the situation of the upper echelons of the capital, but no matter what he did, he could not really calm down.
After finally making it to the day when the results were announced, Gao Pragmatic changed into a Taoist robe and a Dongpo scarf. He sat in his small building and stared blankly at Shichahai, his mind completely blank.
Can I make it into the top 50? Is it possible? I should be able to, right? What if I can’t?
I don't even know what I'm thinking.
Gradually, it started to get lively outside, and there were sounds of blowing and beating everywhere. Gao pragmatically knew that this was the "small team" to announce the good news, and it was one thing to feel happy about it. Red envelopes are naturally indispensable.
Although he knew that these small teams announcing the news were all announcing the news in reverse order according to the list of candidates who would be selected for the test, that is, the better the exam, the later the announcement, but Gao Pragmatic's mood was still getting more and more nervous as time went by.
In particular, under the arrangement of Gao Mo and others, the mansion had already prepared all kinds of festive items, and they would put up lanterns and streamers just waiting for the messenger to arrive. This made Gao Jingshi even more worried - what if? I missed it and I was totally embarrassed to see anyone!
He became more and more afraid, and Gao Mo did nothing until noon. Gao Mo had already prepared meals, and Gao Jingshi had no one to accompany him here, so he ate quietly alone. With his wealth, the food came naturally
It was undoubtedly a good dish, but unfortunately he really didn't have much appetite at the moment. He took a few bites and then sat back on the small building.
Just when Gao Jingshi's heart turned cold and his hands and feet were cold, a particularly loud news team came towards Gao Mansion. Gao Jingshi immediately became nervous. Although he still pretended to be calm and sat motionless in his position,
His ears had already stood up, as if he was afraid that the good news team would suddenly turn around and go elsewhere at the gate of Gaofu.
The servants in the Gao Mansion were so nervous that they all rushed to the door to wait - they couldn't open the door yet, they had to wait for the announcement of the good news to open the door.
Although there will be a palace examination after the joint examination, as a rule, the palace examination will not depose, only the final ranking will be adjusted, so the senior high school for the joint examination is basically the same as this Chunwei high school, and a Jinshi status cannot escape (the same as Jinshi at this time)
When Jinshi read it).
At this time, even Gao Mo couldn't hold his breath. He went down from the small building where Gao Qingshi was and ran to the door to wait for the middle door to be opened.
As the team that announced the good news got closer and closer, everyone from top to bottom in the Gaofang Mansion raised their hearts in their throats, waiting for the sound of the announcement.
Just when everyone was so anxious that their feet were sweating, a loud voice announcing the good news suddenly came from outside the door:
"Good news! - The master of Xinzheng County, Kaifeng Prefecture, Henan Province is Gao Taobao and pragmatic. He won the first place in the high school Gengchen examination and was honored by the foreman of the Jinluan Palace! -"
Gao Pragmatic, who was on the small building, suddenly let go of the armrests of the Taishi chair and leaned softly on the back of the chair. Only then did he realize that his back was already soaked with cold sweat.
Gao Mo and the servants of the Gao family at the gate also breathed a sigh of relief. They immediately opened the middle door and welcomed the person who brought the good news in.
The first thing the messengers did when they entered the house was not to go to Gao Pragmatic immediately. Instead, they picked up brand-new shovels and hoes in their hands and smashed the door of the Gao family.
The servants of the Gao family, including Gao Mo, all looked on with smiles. Gao Mo even burst out laughing and urged: "Smash it well, smash it well, smash it quickly, smash it quickly! Master Yuan will reward you!"
As soon as he waved his hand, a servant of the Gao family brought out two large plates of broken silver, cut them into two ounces, and each broken silver was wrapped with a thin red rope, tied into a symbol.
Wenquxing's style.
It turns out that there is a special order in smashing the door. It is not to cause trouble, but if the door is broken, it is necessary to "change the door", repair the door, paint it vermilion, and change it to "Jinshi". If it is in Gao Pragmatic
In Xinzheng's hometown, one could even erect a flag to show the distinguished status of a Jinshi master. Of course, if one were in the capital, this process of erecting the flag would be omitted, and the capital could not hang flags casually.
At this time, Gao Pragmatic had also adjusted his condition. Except for the fact that he didn't have time to change his clothes, everything else was the same as usual. He came downstairs calmly, with the usual "friendly smile" on his face, and saw Gao Mo smiling.
Hehehe was giving rewards for the good news, not a single one was missed.
Especially the person who shouted the good news at the top of his lungs. Gao Mo felt that his voice was powerful and loud enough, so he even gave him a double reward. He was so happy that he bowed and bowed as if the auspicious words were free of charge.
The series of children are thrown out.
When Gao Pragmatic came down, he noticed that the newspaper poster was sharp-eyed, so he quickly went up to congratulate him, and then handed the newspaper sticker to him with both hands.
Hui Yuanlang was dignified and even more ambitious. Gao pragmatically ordered Gao Mo with a smile: "Give me another double reward!"
The team that announced the good news couldn't help but thought that they would make a lot of money this time. People say that Gao Longwen gave birth to a Buddha in thousands of families.
