Chapter 139 Preparing for the Childbirth Examination
Lizheng had already prepared the household registration plates of the children in the village who were going to take the children's birth test, and distributed them to the parents of the children before registration, so that they could bring their children to register.
Parents or clan members need to bring students to participate in the registration. Officials check the place of origin and household registration plate, record the characteristics of the person, sign and stamp the handprint after the record is completed, and pay ten taels of silver.
The ten taels of silver included the cost of pen, ink, paper and inkstone on the day of the exam, as well as the lunch at noon and various expenses.
The examination fee collected twice a year for children's examinations is a large sum of money, all of which enters the national treasury.
Examination fees are really not cheap. Buying books, pens, ink, paper and inkstones is also a big expense on weekdays. Those who don’t have a family really dare not let their children study and take the imperial examination.
One day before the registration, Mr. Wei sent the students who were going to take the exam home. In the next ten days, he also asked the students to go home and review on their own. If they had any questions, they would come to him again.
After the Lin family picked up the children from Linjia Village in a donkey cart that day, they drove Lin Chengzong, Li Xiu, and Lin Xiazhi to the county seat.
The house I bought in the county seat had already been tidied up, and a family of three could live in it directly.
After eating and tidying up, Li Xiu was lethargic after being pregnant. He felt a little tired and went back to the room, telling the two children to go to bed early.
If you want to register tomorrow, you have to get up early and line up. Lin Xiazhi asked Lin Chengzong to rest early, and he also went back to the room.
Lin Chengzong tossed and turned in his room, unable to fall asleep, he hesitated for a moment, put on his shoes and ran outside Lin Xiazhi's door: "Second brother, are you asleep yet?"
Lin Xiazhi was still asleep, and when he heard Lin Chengzong's voice, he quickly put on his clothes and opened the door for him.
Lin Chengzong entered the house, Lin Xiazhi felt that he was only wearing a middle coat, and felt that he found a piece of his own clothes to put on him: "Zong'er, it's winter and the temperature is low at night, if you have anything to do, you should wear thicker clothes before going out."
"Second brother, I feel a little flustered." Lin Chengzong put on his clothes obediently, and shrank on the soft stool that Lin Xiazhi asked Xiangbo to make.
The soft stool was made by Lin Xiazhi according to the shape of the sofa in the previous life, and it was very comfortable for people to sit on.
Lin Xiazhi sat on the other side of the soft stool and poured Lin Chengzong a cup of hot water: "Zong'er, what are you worried about?"
"I'm afraid I'll do badly in the exam."
"This exam for children's students is to let you feel the atmosphere of the exam and learn about the exam questions. The family does not require you to get some grades in the exam." This is anxiety before the exam, and Lin Xiazhi explained him patiently.
"I know all of this, but—" Lin Chengzong was still flustered.
"Don't think too much. Our family's business will grow bigger and bigger in the future. If you don't want to study, you can come back and help your elder brother run the family's business, or you want to do other things. As long as you don't violate the law and discipline, the family will support you." Lin Chengzong is only ten years old, and he has studied for more than a year, and he is not sure what he will do in the future.
In fact, Lin Chengzong wanted someone to encourage him. The husband asked him to take the children's exam, just to let him feel the atmosphere of the exam room, and he would not be pressured like his family.
It was Lin Xiazhi who taught Lin Chengzu how to count at first, and Lin Xiazhi thought up all kinds of lucrative businesses in the Lin family. It was Lin Xiazhi who encouraged Ah Ma to learn embroidery. Proposed.
The changes in the Lin family were almost all brought about by Lin Xiazhi. In Lin Chengzong's opinion, Lin Xiazhi was one of the most reliable people. When he was about to take the exam, he came to talk to Lin Xiazhi, hoping to find support.
Lin Xiazhi was not impatient, and kept comforting him in a gentle voice.
With Lin Xiazhi's encouragement, Lin Chengzong's heart gradually settled down, and he still had ten days to review. This year, he studied hard with his husband, and he must go home with a good grade in the exam.
Just when Lin Xiazhi was thinking about whether to find a scholar or someone familiar with the Tongsheng Examination to tutor Lin Chengzong, Cheng Wenliu heard the news and ran to the Lin residence.
Lin Xiazhi and Cheng Wenliu got along more casually, especially after he figured it out, he was not polite when he called Cheng Wenliu.
"Brother Xia, are you looking for someone to tutor Zong'er?" Cheng Wenliu opened his fan and shook it a few times, "This is very simple, it's as far away as the sky and so close."
"You don't play with the fan in the cold weather, and be careful of passing on your sickness to Zong'er when you are sick." Lin Xiazhi rolled his eyes at him.
"It's so easy to get sick, don't you think the action of fanning is particularly attractive?" Cheng Wenliu approached Lin Xiazhi with a playful smile, and put away the fan obediently.
"I don't think so!" Lin Xiazhi said angrily. He always felt that those who fan fans in winter were very stupid. Even if this person was Cheng Wenliu, he couldn't change his inherent impression.
"Okay, then I won't fan it anymore." Cheng Wenliu handed the fan to the servant behind him with an aggrieved expression.
Lin Xiazhi was interrupted by him, and almost forgot what he wanted to say just now: "Do you know a scholar or master who is familiar with the Tongsheng Examination?"
"Didn't I just say that it's far away from the sky and right in front of you." Cheng Wenliu was good at gesturing to himself.
"You?" Lin Xiazhi reached out and patted his finger pointing at him, "You are just a businessman, how do you know about the imperial examination?"
"Brother Xia, you're wronging me too much by saying that." Cheng Wenliu's expression was exaggerated, "My young master is an 11-year-old boy, and a 15-year-old scholar, but he is a well-known young scholar."
Lin Xiazhi looked at his rich facial expressions...
Why didn't you know Cheng Wenliu was such a person before?
The servant behind Cheng Wenliu also wanted to cover his face. In fact, his young master was quite normal when he was doing business, but he would have convulsions from time to time when facing familiar people.
Fortunately, the ambiguous relationship between Lin Xiazhi and Cheng Wenliu knew everything that the two families should know, and the second son Lin would not regret it if he wanted to see the young master.
"Cheng Ping, is what your young master said true?" Lin Xiazhi detoured to Wenliu and asked his servant Cheng Ping.
"Brother Xia, you don't believe me." Cheng Wenliu looked heartbroken and made heartbreaking gestures.
Lin Xiazhi slapped the actor mercilessly: "If you are normal, I will believe you."
Cheng Ping suppressed a smile: "If you go back to Mr. Lin, my young master is indeed a boy at the age of 11 and a scholar at the age of 15."
"Then why doesn't he continue to take the exam?" Lin Xiazhi continued to ask.
Cheng Wenliu squeezed away his servant: "My ambition is not in the imperial examination, my lifelong goal is to be rich."
"Very good, smells like copper." Lin Xiazhi praised him.
"Brother Xia, you like it too, right?" Cheng Wen Liuchou shamelessly added interest to Lin Xiazhi.
His purpose of taking the imperial examination was to make himself famous and open the door for doing business, but his strategy was not successful, and within a few years everyone forgot that he was such a young scholar.
Although Cheng Wenliu was a scholar, he hadn't studied for several years. How much did he remember of the things used in the previous exams?
If Lin Chengzong felt that Cheng Wen Liuxing, Lin Xiazhi would not look for another husband.
Although Cheng Wenliu hadn't studied for several years, he still had things about the imperial examination in his mind. The imperial examination would not have changed much in the past few years. It would be no problem to teach Lin Chengzong, who was preparing for the examination, so he naturally stayed to tutor Lin Chengzong in the end.
At first when I heard that Lin Xiazhi and the others had come to the county seat, Cheng Wenliu Pidianpidian came to want to spend more time with Brother Xia, but now he stayed, and the person who got along with him became Lin Chengzong.
Lin Xiazhi doesn't care what he thinks, since he stays, he will give Zong'er a good counseling.
After half a day, Cheng Wenliu felt a little tired. Teaching students was more taxing than learning by himself.
Yu.
Hee.
Group.
Correct.
Lin Chengzong left a question for him to do by himself, and Cheng Wenliu came out to drink his saliva: "Brother Xia, there is a high probability that Zong'er will be admitted to Tongsheng this time."
"Why do you say that? The master in the village said that he might not pass the exam this year, and we didn't put any pressure on him." Lin Xiazhi looked very relaxed, and he felt that it didn't matter whether he passed the exam or not.
"Our county magistrate prefers people who are good at arithmetic. Zong'er's arithmetic is better than mine back then. Back then, I was able to pass the 11-year-old entrance examination by relying on outstanding arithmetic. It's just that Zong'er's article still has some loopholes. These days I will try my best to make up for him." Cheng Wenliu analyzed.
"As long as you know what to do, you don't need to tell Zong'er. It's hard for you these few days." Lin Xiazhi thanked earnestly.
I heard that Cheng Wenliu is planning to open a branch in Jufulou. He is very busy now but he is willing to spare time to tutor Lin Chengzong. He really has a heart.
Busy time always flies by quickly, for Lin Chengzong, ten days passed in a flash.
During the imperial examination, except for a suit of clothes, nothing else was allowed to be brought into the examination room. When the family prepared, Lin Chengzong was asked to wear the clothes he usually wore to take the exam, and nothing else was prepared.
The atmosphere in the Lin family was relaxed, and Lin Chengzong had a good night's sleep before the exam.After Cheng Wenliu gave him tutoring, he felt that what he didn't understand before was clear, and he was full of confidence in the Tongsheng exam.
After eating breakfast at home, I went out to line up outside the examination room. At this time, there were already candidates standing outside the examination room, and everyone was waiting for the examination room to open.
Most of the students who take the children's entrance examination are young people between the ages of ten and 20, and from time to time there will be some who are over 20 years old.
"Chengzong, Chengzong, you arrived before us." A few children from Lin Family Village also came over afterward.
Among the people who came to take the exam this year were Lin Tianci from Niu Fulang's family, Saturday Gen who changed his name to Zhou Pengyuan, and a few older ones. Everyone stood together talking and laughing.
Lin Chengzong, Lin Tianci, and Zhou Pengyuan all tried their best this year to prepare for the official entrance examination next year, so they felt no pressure.
While speaking, the door of the examination room was opened, and the officials came out in a file, and surrounded the gate tightly. The examiner took out a roster, ordered one person to go in, and checked at the main entrance of the examination room. Immediately kicked out.
The inspection of the children's examination is not so strict, and the speed is not slow, and soon it will be Li Lin Chengzong's turn.
Lin Chengzong climbed the steps, looked back at Li Xiu and Lin Xiazhi who were waiting not far away, and stepped into the examination room full of confidence.
