On the way to escape from famine, I amaze the world with my medical practice

After Ye Liwen explained carefully, the whole family understood.

Ye Xiangxiang said, "Brother, if you pass the exam, will you study in the county?"

Ye Liwen nodded, "That's what happened. I didn't catch up with this year's county exam, but if I pass it, I can go to the county school to study first, and then take the children's exam again next year. After I pass it, I can stay in the county school. If I can't pass it, I can stay in the county school." Want to come back."

Although it is not yet certain whether Ye Liwen can stay in the county school, this is undoubtedly good news for the Ye family.

At least Ye Liwen didn't have to spend money to study this year.

Moreover, the entrance examination of Hanchen Academy is strict, indicating that the students in the academy are not just messing around. Among so many people, the dean selected Ye Liwen to take the exam, which is enough to show that his talents are impressive.

Mrs. Wang smiled and said, "It's a good thing, this is a great thing. Brother Wen can take the exam with confidence. Even if you really fail, no one in the family will blame you. Let's just come back. There will be no shame."

Ye Liwen has the support of his family and feels very at ease.

"I will definitely take the exam well."

This happened suddenly. The exam was coming up in mid-April, and Ye Liwen didn't have much time to prepare. He stayed at home for a day and then went to the academy again, wanting to read more books.

Mrs. Wang prepared some food for him to take with her. She wanted to bring more, but the weather was getting hotter and she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to hold it. Eating stale food would be a bad thing.

"It's good to pass the exam, but don't tire yourself out. Take a break when you need to," Wang said.

Ye Liwen agreed, "I'll note it down. Grandma, please go back."

After a few days, Ye Hongchang personally sent him to the county seat, but he stopped coming home halfway.

So she would know the result at the next meeting. Wang was nervous and worried, so she smiled and said, "Go quickly, everything is fine at home, don't worry about it."

After sending Ye Liwen away, Wang came back only after the carriage was out of sight.

Hearing the baby's cry, she hurried into the east room.

Ye Xiangxiang and Ye Cuicui were sitting on the edge of the bed entertaining the family. Zhou said, "Maybe they are hungry."

Ye Xiangxiang reached out and touched the little guy's face, "It's really edible."

Seeing Mrs. Wang coming, the two sisters gave up their seats and said, "Grandma, sit down."

Ye Xiangxiang said, "I'm going to the duck house to take a look. I'll be back soon."

Mrs. Wang nodded, "Go ahead and call your uncle back for lunch later."

"it is good."

Ye Cuicui started to work with needlework. It was going to be hot again soon. She recently started making summer shirts, and Wang gave this job to her.

Xingjia was held in Zhou's arms and sucked milk. Wang looked at her granddaughter and grandson, and thought about Brother Wen who was studying hard and Brother Xiangxiang and Brother Xuan who were busy outside, and her heart felt soft.

It must be that the old man has a spirit in heaven, which makes the family peaceful, and all the children and grandchildren are doing well.

On April 15th, for the county school exam, Ye Hongchang took Ye Liwen to the county seat one day early.

There were five hundred duck eggs at home. Wang and Liu made a soft basket together, put a layer of duck eggs and a layer of straw to put them all in.

It just so happened that Ye Hongchang was going to the county town, so he could take it to the county town and sell it at a higher price.

The journey went smoothly. The exam was going to take two days, so Ye Hongchang found a hotel to stay and waited for Ye Liwen to finish the exam and go home together. The duck eggs were sold easily. The ducks at home ate fish and insects by the river, and roamed freely all day long. The eggs they laid were so big that people would accept them as soon as they saw them.

An egg costs three cents, which is indeed higher than the price in the town. However, it is not cost-effective to come to the county town just to sell eggs. It is okay to sell them on the way.

Many people in the inn are also discussing the county school enrollment. They all say that no one in Wushan County has been successful in the past few years. If this continues, no one will protect Wushan County.

I don’t know if the recruitment this time is the intention of the magistrate or the higher-ups. I can see that I am very anxious. I hope I can really select talented people.

When Ye Hongchang heard these words, he thought that his nephew was taking the selection exam, and there were three people from the entire Lingshi Town.

Regardless of whether he can pass or not, he is proud to be qualified to participate.

Ye Hongchang has not been idle these two days. When he has time, he goes out to inquire about the situation at the border.

I heard people say that the people in Xiliang could not enter Dayan, so many of them starved to death, and many people were captured by Xiliang officers and soldiers.

Ye Hongchang's heart twitched. He wanted to write to Meng Chang to ask, but he didn't know where to send the letter. When they left, they left no information.

After Ye Liwen finished his exam, Ye Hongchang sent him home, and he had to rest at home for two days before going to the academy.

The family was not busy these days, and Ye Hongchang stopped going hunting in the mountains. He told his family and went out on horseback to find the whereabouts of Ye Hongshun and others.

He went to the border again. Unexpectedly, the security there had been relaxed, and people from outside could come in at any time.

Ye Hongchang was very happy, but he didn't understand until he asked about it.

The officers and soldiers of Xiliang built border defenses at the border and prevented the people of Zhaochuan from fleeing to Dayan.

In other words, there was no need to stop Dayan, they wouldn't be able to get through at all.

Ye Hongchang rode his horse and wandered around the border for a long time, thinking that he might know some of the people who were taken back, but he was powerless and felt as if a stone was pressing on his chest.

But now he doesn't know where to look for Ye Hongshun and others. Dayan is no longer on guard. Did they come here or were they captured?

Where did Mr. Meng know that they were safe?

Ye Hongchang returned home in despair. He had been out for five days, and Ye Liwen had already gone to the academy.

Ye Xiangxiang had just returned from the duck house. Seeing that he was back, he asked happily, "Dad, how are you?"

Ye Hongchang dismounted and suddenly asked, "Xiangxiang, do you know where to find Mr. Meng and Mr. Meng?"

"I don't know, why did dad suddenly ask me this?" Ye Xiangxiang's heart skipped a beat, and he felt awkward speaking.

Ye Hongchang sighed, "I thought you could chat with Mr. Meng, and maybe you knew where they had gone. I got news from them earlier that your third uncle was fine, but there was no news after such a long time, and I felt a little bit in my heart. disturbed."

Ye Xiangxiang waved his hand, "I haven't said this, so it's not easy to inquire about other people's private affairs."

"That's true."

Ye Hongchang told his daughter the news he had learned when he went out this time, and Ye Xiangxiang also began to worry.

Wushan County is not far from the border. If Uncle San and the others had successfully entered Dayan, logically they should have come here long ago. Why has there been no news for so long?

Both she and Ye Hongchang were worried that Ye Hongshun and others would be captured by the officers and soldiers of Xiliang.

If that's the case, that's quite troublesome.

King Yue and King An ordered the people of Sichuan to be exterminated. What would happen if they were captured and taken back?
