Chapter 527 Look at the list
As soon as September arrived, the government sent people to urge the grain tax.

Fortunately, all the grain taxes in the village had been collected. The next day after receiving the order, Qin Yao organized the young people in the village to deliver the grain to the county granary, successfully completing the tax collection task.

In this way, the busy autumn harvest is finally over, and Qin Yao, the village chief, can breathe a sigh of relief.

However, during this period, the government came and asked a dozen corvees to go to neighboring towns to build river embankments.

This kind of corvee work in the county is already very good, because it is strenuous work, and the government will give each person four kilograms of food per day, so there is no need to bring your own food.

It's just a hardship for the family. It will be a lot harder to lose a strong labor force at such an important time as the autumn harvest.

At this time, the villagers of Liujia Village will be happy to find that during this busy year in the village, they already have enough money to hire part-time workers.

And all this is the credit of the stationery factory.

Watching the stationery factory that the whole village raised money to rebuild gradually taking shape, all the villagers in Liujia Village are looking forward to the huge changes it will bring to the village after its completion.

However, before the construction of the new factory is completed, another important construction project in the village has been completed first.

The school is built.

The children have books to read.

On the day when the school's opening ceremony was held, Qin Yao also brought over the award medal she had asked the blacksmith from Xiahe Village to make.

One was given to each of the children in the village who actively helped the adults in school.

Little Laifu got one, and he loved it so much that he didn't know what to do with it. He held it in the palm of his hand, reluctant to take it with him, and looked at it happily.

That happy expression made the four Dalang brothers and sisters jealous to death.

"Aniang, can we go back to the village to go to school next year?"

Sanlang and Siniang asked expectantly on their way home after leaving the school.

Children are not yet aware of the different teaching quality in different places. They think that the master is teaching and the students are all learning the same.

Thinking of the tedious task of getting up early and running to school in the town every day, I naturally looked forward to being able to go to school at home.

However, Qin Yao shook her head and said: "Da Lang and Er Lang have been in the Ding family's main school, and there will be no change for you."

"As for you two little ones, it will be two years next year. If the Ding Clan School is willing to accept other students into their own clan school, then I will let you stay regardless of the tuition fee."

"If they don't want others to enter their tribe to learn, then I'll find a way."

In short, stay if you can.

Dalang and Erlang agreed very much. After all, their elder brothers and sisters were several years old. In addition, they had been staying with the children of the Ding family's main branch, so they could more or less distinguish the big difference between the main school and external schools.

The external schools only teach some enlightenment, but the main school is very different. When the teacher comes, he rushes to let them take the exam for fame. Not only does he teach, he also teaches people, the world, and the situation in officialdom and court.

Although it is far from being comparable to famous teachers like Gong Liangliao, for students living in isolated counties, what the masters of the Ding family's main school say is the only source of information.

It's a pity that the two little ones can't think of that much.

When I heard my mother-in-law say that I couldn't go to the village school, my little shoulders immediately slumped down, and I sighed as if I was wandering around. I swung my arms and walked home.

Qin Yao looked funny but helpless. She didn't say anything like "I'm doing this for your own good", she just told them the facts.

"Only by following the master of the Ding family headquarters can you take the imperial examination."

Saburo was still unhappy. He had never thought about taking the imperial examination. He just wanted to sleep for one more hour every day.

However, Siniang's reaction was a little excited. She hurried back to Grandma, raised her head and asked, "Grandma, can I also take the imperial examination?" Qin Yao never lied to children about important matters, and answered very seriously: "Women can't Participate in the imperial examination."

"What if I become a boy?" Siniang asked immediately. However, when he asked the question, he frowned tightly and said firmly: "But I still like being a woman. Apart from my mother-in-law, I like myself the most!"

Qin Yao picked up the narcissistic little girl and walked away. She smiled and said, "Studying is not just for participating in the imperial examination. You can also get to know the bigger world, more things, and more people, right?"

Siniang tilted her head and thought, yes, reading is still very interesting.

"Aniang, then I will listen to you." The little girl hugged Aniang's neck affectionately and said seriously in her ear.

Qin Yao turned her head and kissed the pink cheek, "Baby is so good."

"Auntie, what is baby?"

"Si Niang is my treasure."

The three squeaking young boys who were following behind, trying hard to catch up with their mother who was walking so fast without realizing it, all paused when they heard the disgusting words coming from the front.

Si Niang is a treasure, but what about them?

Did you pick them all up? !
Heavy rain.

However, no one was hiding under the wall outside the Yingtianfu government office.

"Senior Brother, the list has been released. Are you sure you don't want to go down and take a look?"

On a low-key yet luxurious carriage on the side of the road, Gong Liangliao and Qi Xianguan were calm and composed, except for Liu Ji, who seemed to be moving around like a monkey jumping up and down.

Liu Ji felt that his character had been insulted by his junior brother!
"Okay, you are noble and noble, I will go and see for myself!" He turned around and was about to open the car door and jump out.

Qi Xianguan took a deep breath and reminded him: "It's raining heavily outside. Wouldn't it be better to wait in the car for Shitou and the others to come back?"

Leaving a sentence of "I don't!", someone rushed into the heavy rain without hesitation.

A Wang, who was standing outside the car wearing a bamboo hat and looking at the crowds of people with no fluctuation in his heart, suddenly felt something flashing past him.

Ji Min raised his head and said, oh, it's the old man who has a seizure every day, so it's okay.

The rain was heavy, and as soon as it came out, Liu Ji was drowned.

He felt a little bit regretful, but no one behind him called him back!
I have no choice but to finish the climb on the path I chose.

Besides, is it the same thing for others to see it and to see it with your own eyes?
Liu Ji couldn't imagine how cheerful he would be if he could see his name on the list with his own eyes.

Of course, that's assuming his name is on the list.

There should be, right?

With nine points of expectation and one point of anxiety, Liu Ji resolutely got into the crowd.

The bluestone floor that had been scorched by the scorching sun for a long time was poured with cold rain, evaporating a stuffy and dry water vapor. Combined with the various smells of people, Liu Ji almost "yue".

He stood up suddenly, raised his head and took a breath. When he looked down, he was still so far away from the list that he couldn't even squeeze in.

He had no choice but to hold on until this point. He already regretted his action of rushing out of the car, so he had to call urgently: "Awang! Awang!"

A gust of wind passed over his head, and Liu Ji successfully reached the bottom of the list. He was held up high by the expressionless Awang, standing out from the crowd.

This familiar gesture reminded Liu Ji of the beautiful memories he had with his wife in Fucheng last time.
Stop, stop, look at the list first.
