(Please collect, please recommend tickets!)

A poor family like the Xie family can't stand a few twists and turns.Offended the Zhuhu Sun family, the Xie family's situation in Yuyao City is already very difficult, Xie Fang even made plans to move out of Yuyao, but who knows that his young man is a Wenqu star, and he has won the favor of the county elder , not only made the mighty Zhuhu Sun family suffocate, but also won the recommendation of the county lord to learn from the county teacher, and suddenly became the most promising scholar.

Or how to say to read more, there is gold in this book.

If it was Xie Fang, facing the aggressive Sun family, he would definitely swallow his anger and smash his teeth into his stomach.

The more Xie Fang thought about it, the more he felt that his young man was amazing. Since returning home, he had been praising Xie Shen continuously. Even Xie Shen, who was always thick-skinned, couldn't stand it anymore.

"Brother, I'm not as good as you boast. The reason why I got into the eyes of the county lord is also due to luck."

Xie Fang was not happy now, he raised his eyebrows and said: "Luck? Luck alone can make eternal absolutes? I have heard that the pair made by the county lord has not been matched for hundreds of years. , it happened that you met him."

Xie Shen secretly groaned in his heart.It seems that too much limelight is not a good thing.In fact, the so-called Qiangu is definitely not as difficult as imagined.

The reason why these pairs are so perfect is that they are boastful.Furthermore, the ancients demanded perfection, and every rhyme must match, so it is difficult to match the second line.But Xie Shen, regardless of these many restrictions, was able to make a pretty good second line.

Xie Shen knew that no matter how much he explained it was useless, he simply shook his head and let Xie Fang boast.

It seems that the old Xie family has this tradition of being competitive, otherwise why is Xie Fang so excited?
Xie Fang patted the food table and said: "Xiao Lang, you are an extraordinary person now so you can't wear this cloth shirt anymore, so I will go to the silk shop and pull two bolts of Zhejiang flowers to make you a well-fitting robe, and you can wear it out There is also face."

Xie Shen wanted to say something, but the elder sister-in-law Xie Chen said in a deep voice: "You don't have to worry about food and clothing, just leave it to your elder brother and sister-in-law. If you really want to help our Xie family, just do it well." Wen Shu, come back from the exam earlier to see who dares to bully us."

Xie Shen silently nodded his head.

It is said that everything is inferior but reading is high, but Xie Shen didn't agree with it at first.But after experiencing this incident, Xie Shen became more determined in his plan to obtain fame.

The reason why the Zhuhu Sun family is so domineering is not because they are from a scholarly family, a family of imperial examinations, and their ancestors have produced many Jinshi?

Even a small butler can take advantage of others and shout at Xie's family.God knows what would have happened if Xie Shen hadn't been quick-witted and used the power of the magistrate to suppress these evil slaves.

And once Xie Shen got the honor, even if he was just a scholar, he could be exempted from all corvee and taxes, and he would not kneel when he saw an official, and he would not be punished.

Not only that, even Xie Fang and his sister-in-law Xie Chen could also benefit from it. If Xie Shen could also take over the land in the neighboring villages.In name it was a transfer, but in fact Xie Shen took care of them on their behalf, and then Xie Shen rented out the land at a very low rent. Although the money was less, it was a real no-cost business, making money lying down!

Xie Shen's biggest dream in his previous life was to sleep until he woke up naturally, counting money until his hands cramp.Now it seems that in order to achieve these two points, one must strive for fame.

With nearly a year to go, Xie Shen was very optimistic about his prospects for the imperial examination, and with the guidance of such a high-ranking teacher as Confucius.

The sister-in-law thanked Chen for serving the food, and the dishes and chopsticks were set. The family was about to eat when they heard someone knocking on the door of the house.

Xie Fang frowned, there were not many people in contact with their family, and they had just moved from the west of the city to the south of the city, no one should visit at this time.

Suspicious, Xie Fang got up and went to open the door.When he opened the latch, he was startled.

This person is none other than Xie Shen's former husband, Old Master Liu.Beside him is Old Master Liu's most beloved granddaughter, Qiuniang.

"Brother Xie, why did you suddenly move and didn't tell the old man?"

Old Master Liu has a really thick skin, Xie Fang dragged Qiuniang into the bamboo building before welcoming him.

Xie Shen felt disgusted all the time, he didn't have a good impression of Old Master Liu, but now he was sure that this old man was just a fool.Xie Shen didn't think that Old Master Liu was interested in him before, but now Old Master Liu came to him as if he was a different person.Because Xie Shen can think of anything with his toes.

County Magistrate Wu is the absolute master in Yuyao. He boasted about being a child. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but it is a hint in the eyes of those who are interested.Old Master Liu is such a caring person. Although he is rich in food and clothing, he is not ranked well in Yuyao City, where there are many celebrities.But if there is a student that the county can boast about, he can have more boastful capital when recruiting students in the academy.In other words, Xie Shen is a pawn that he can make full use of.

"Xie Shen, this old man has prepared a private room for you at White Deer Academy. Every day after school, I will specially train you to teach you everything I have learned all my life."

Old Master Liu leaned over to Xie Shen's side shamelessly, and said with a smile.

"I'm afraid I will disappoint you. To be honest, the student has been ordered by the county magistrate to study at the Sanwei Academy run by Confucianism."

Xie Shen answered very directly, without showing any sympathy.

Today's bitter fruit was planted by Old Master Liu himself, since he wants to go to Zhuzhuhu Sun's thigh, he shouldn't think about stepping on two boats before repairing the relationship with Xie Shen.

Old Master Liu was obviously a little surprised, he only heard that Xie Shen was boasted by the county magistrate, but he didn't know that Xie Shen had changed his family.

If it was someone else, he would have fled away in shame.But Old Master Liu is quite thick-skinned, he changed his strategy after thinking for a while and said: "This is really a happy event. Confucius is a well-known Confucian in Yuyao City. I can rest assured that you worship under his name."

It's not that Old Master Liu is high-minded, it's because he knows that Xie Shen will never choose him.Not to mention that the two had already had a rift before, but Kong Jiaoyu's knowledge and contacts were not comparable to him, and Xie Shen was not stupid, so of course he knew how to choose.

"You are twelve this year, but the granddaughter of this old man is also twelve."

Old Master Liu twirled his beard and said indifferently: "I see that you are in love with each other, what do you think if the two of us decide to get married?"

Xie Shen's brain exploded.

Why is this Old Master Liu still using a beauty trick?

No matter how much Xie Shen is boasted by the county magistrate, he is just a little boy with no fame. Old Master Liu has even invested in his own granddaughter. Is it certain that Xie Shen will be able to go far on the road of imperial examinations?
