pastoral little wife

Chapter 484 Brother (1)
"Zhang Xiucai was dismissed as a scholar? Has he committed a crime?" Yun Duo was a little surprised.

Luo Qiu replied with a smile, "Young Mistress doesn't know something. The fame of this scholar is not only difficult to test, but also not reliable. There will be an assessment every year, called the yearly test, and the points are one, two, three, four, five, six, etc. One, two, three, four, five, six. The first-class granary students will not change, the scholar will be promoted to the granary student, and the rice will be added. The second-class will not change, but the granary student will have to stop the rice. The third-class and fourth-class students will be passed, and the fifth and sixth will be punished. Fame. Zhang Xiucai passed the fifth-class exam. He can take the scientific examination two years later, and three years later for the sixth-class."

The final exam... Yun Duo hurriedly looked at Nie Dalang, "Are you going to take the annual exam too?"

Nie Dalang shook his head, "There will be a general exam before Dabi, and only those who pass the exam can participate in Chunwei."

Yun Duo nodded, this system is really...sound?However, "Zhang Xiucai has been dismissed from his reputation as a scholar. This master Zhang is afraid that he will suffer internal injuries for a long time."

Zhang Xiucai was not only injured internally, he couldn't believe it, he was reprimanded by his master, slapped, and humiliated.What's even more hateful is the loss of fame!In the past, he was always the one who laughed at other people's embarrassment, but he never thought that it was him who lost face this year!
After being dismissed, he will no longer be Zhang Xiucai, and he will have to wait two years before he can take the spring test again.In the past two years, not only did he have to suffer from the eyes of his classmates, but he also had to see all the ridicule from the villagers!
Zhang Xiucai felt that he couldn't bear it, he couldn't bear it, and he didn't know why he came back with his head down.

Seeing him locked in the room, Mrs. Nie didn't dare to persuade him, because his face was too scary, but she couldn't let him get angry in the room like this without eating or drinking.

Zhang Xiucai, whose real name is Chong, and whose style name is Chenglin, was studying at a young age, married Nie's family, and returned home. Three years later, he passed the examination as a scholar.He also resented the darkness of the scientific examination because he failed the exam, and God was unfair to him.He is full of talent and knowledge, but useless.However, he has great hopes for the scientific examination, especially after Nie Dalang won the exam easily, his talents and knowledge are much more than Nie Dalang! ?It's just that the world is unfair, so he failed to go to high school.

Now he, Zhang Chong, has become a person who is not knowledgeable enough, failed the yearly exam, and was dismissed from his reputation as a scholar. He has lost all face!

"Master! I stewed chicken soup for you. You should eat some and be careful! You can take another exam for this fame..." Nie comforted outside the door, but did not dare to enter the house.The day before yesterday to persuade him, he was hit by the inkstone on his hand, resulting in a large bruise, how high the swelling was, rubbed with medicinal wine, and it still hasn't disappeared.Fortunately, it was hit on the hand. If it hit the face, I don't know what will happen.

Zhang Chong took a deep breath and said with a gloomy face, "Send it in!"

Hearing his response, Mrs. Nie hurriedly brought in the chicken soup, "Master! This chicken leg has been cut into small pieces, it's stewed rotten, and it's just right for you to eat."

Zhang Chong saw a layer of oily flowers floating on it, and frowned displeased.Did he get rid of his reputation just because he didn't manage this time and those people didn't have enough money! ?
Seeing his face change, Nie's heart trembled slightly, "...Master...Master?"

Zhang Chong looked up at her, wearing a gorgeous silk embroidered beige, a silver step rocker on his head, a silver hairpin on his head, gold bead earrings on his ears, and a red gold carved bracelet on his hand. , I used to think that she dressed up like this to make him look good and decent, but now looking at her dress like this, I just think it's vulgar, it doesn't look good, and it's an eyesore.

"Others dress up, and you dress up too, but you smell vulgar and coppery. I am a scholar, so you don't know how to dress up cleanly and elegantly!?" Zhang Chong said angrily.

Nie was stunned for a moment, then looked down at her own attire, she was always dressed like this before...Seeing his angry face, he hurriedly replied, "I'll dress up again, clean and elegant!"

Disgust flashed in Zhang Chong's eyes, he looked at her displeased and said, "I'm still bringing it here!"

"Oh! Oh!" Nie quickly put the chicken soup by his hand.

Zhang Chong frowned, "Go down!"

Embarrassment flashed across Nie's face, but she was afraid that he would get angry again, so she hit her with chicken soup, and hurried out of the study.

People in the village were discussing that Zhang Xiucai's fame had been dismissed, and they also knew that there was an annual exam every year, and if he failed the exam, he would not be a scholar.

Mrs. Yang was very concerned about this matter. As soon as the matter came out, she came to Zhang's house to inquire. Seeing that Mrs. Nie's hand was bruised and bruised, she was smart enough not to ask further questions, and then hurried to Qingyuan Come on, "Zhang Xiucai's reputation has been removed, and he will no longer be a scholar! How is Nie Dalang?" He is not as knowledgeable as Zhang Xiucai. Zhang Xiucai has never passed the test. Pass! ?An in-law lost his fame, and even his son-in-law lost his fame. She would be ashamed!

Yun Duo really wanted to give her a blank look, "Nie Dalang is a juren, not a scholar."

"Then the fame is still there? Or is it the master Juren?" Yang asked.

"En." Yun Duo nodded in response to her.

Yang breathed a sigh of relief, "That's good! As long as Nie Dalang's fame is still there!" Some doubts asked, "He is not as knowledgeable as Zhang Xiucai, why Zhang Xiucai's fame was dismissed, but his is not!? "

Yun Duo ignored her and sat by the stove to warm up.

"I'm asking you something! You damn girl!" Yang pulled her face in displeasure, "I'm worried about you, and you're still holding your face, caring about you like you owe me!"

"Nie Dalang is a Juren, so he no longer has to take the annual examination. It is impossible to get rid of his fame. Also, his knowledge was taught by Master Pang, who is Tan Hualang, the top three." Yun Duo didn't like her. Why don't you look unlucky.

"He has only been studying for a few years, how many years has Zhang Xiucai been studying, and how many years ago he passed the exam!" Yang pouted indifferently, seeing that Nie Dalang was not in the room, and asked where he was.

"Reading and practicing calligraphy in the study!" Yun Duo smiled at her.

Yang's face showed a rather satisfied expression, "You have to look at him, don't run out with nothing to do, think about this matter, think about that matter, and study at home more, or the fame If you are dismissed, you will be ashamed when the time comes!"

Seeing that Dalang Nie was not there, there was only Mama Luo in the room. She turned her eyes, waved her hand and told Mama Luo, "Go down! We have something to say!"

Mother Luo stood still, waiting for Yun Duo's order.

"What do you want to say?" Yun Duo looked up at her.

"Of course I have something to say!" Yang stared displeasedly, and told Mother Luo, "I told you to go out, why don't you hurry up!"

Yun Duo frowned and waved his hand.

Mother Luo bent her knees and stepped back.

Mrs. Yang looked inside and outside the house, leaned over, and said in a low voice, "Is all the money in the house with you, or should Nie Dalang take care of it?"
