Chapter 51
After getting the money, Sun Songnian was in a good mood. He chatted with Sun Henian for a few more words, and suddenly remembered something: "He Nian, the boys' test in Shandong has already started. If there is no accident, Sun Yue will have no problem in being a scholar this year. This child , I successfully passed the county examination and the government examination last time, but was delayed because of a serious illness. Otherwise, my Sun family would have produced a young Jinshi long ago."

Hearing his elder brother mention his son, Sun Henian had a smile on his dull face: "Elder brother, don't praise him, that little bastard Sun Yue is usually a person who doesn't work hard. If he really got a Jinshi last year, he wouldn't know What kind of arrogance has he become? It will be good for him in the future after grinding him for a few years. As for your family, Sun Hao, I heard that the county test is not bad this time, and he should be able to pass the examination as a scholar."

Sun Songnian shook his head: "He Nian, my son knows best. He is just a playful libertine. The reason why he passed the county test is because of Li Meiting's face and the money the Sun family managed. The county test, It's easy to pass the two tests in the government, but there is no one to talk about in the test in the college. I think Sun Hao will probably have no chance this year. I have also thought about it. At worst, I will buy him a supervisor in the future, and find him a job in the capital, so I can inherit it. My title. Speaking of which, my Sun family did well in the exam this time, and also produced a few talents."

Sun Henian nodded: "That's good, a hundred-year-old family is the most talented person. As long as my Sun family continues to study like this and pass the exam, the family will not decline."

"By the way, the government exam is over."

"Oh, the government exam is over?" Sun Henian hurriedly asked: "A few days ago, a letter from Shandong said that the schoolchildren were all waiting for the exam in Jinan. Why did they finish the exam? What was the result?"

Sun Songnian said: "This time there are two consecutive exams between the government exam and the college exam, and there is only five days between them. There was a delay in the correspondence on the road. After all, they should enter the exam room of the college exam now. This government exam is also very simple. Jinan The magistrate happened to have an old relationship with Li Meiting, and under his care, ten of the thirteen schoolchildren in my Sun family passed the test."

"That's good, this Li Meiting..." Sun Henian pondered for a moment: "At the beginning, he was invited to take the exam for the boys in the current class. However, after the boy passes the examination, the future provincial and general examinations will be very strict, so he will not be able to help him. And this person is lazy and not suitable for teaching and educating people. I thought about it for a long time, and waited The boy has given it a try, and is going to be active in the capital, to see if he can bring it up in front of Old Yang Ge, revive it, and find a leisurely job for him."

"indeed so."

"By the way, tell me which juniors in my family have passed this exam."

Sun Songnian hurriedly opened his mouth and read out a series of names of the Sun family's children: "Sun Hao, Sun Gui, Sun Yuantu, Sun Youcai, Sun Tiansheng, Sun Dan..."

"Wait." Sun Henian waved his hand to make his elder brother stop: "Sun Dan... But the kid who memorized the genealogy that Sun Zhong mentioned before entered my family's study again?"

"Exactly." Sun Songnian smiled: "The manager, Sun Zhong, praised that kid very much, saying that he has a good memory and is a talented person. I plan to study in ethnology for a few years, and I will put it in the family business in the future." Worker. But I didn’t expect that Sun Dan had only read the book for more than a month, and then went to take part in the boy’s test, and passed two tests in one breath. It’s really surprising! He Nian, tell me, is this kid a genius? I used to not believe that there is a genius in the world, but today I believe it."

"I've never seen such a thing as a genius, but that doesn't mean there isn't one." Sun Henian was cautious, and after thinking for a while, he said, "Take the old man Yang Ge as an example. He was awarded a Jinshi when he was 12 years old. I haven’t studied for a few years, so what is a genius?”

Sun Songnian said: "In the year of the crane, Mr. Yang Ge is naturally a talent from the sky. He was a Jinshi at the age of 12. But I heard people say that he was born at the age of five, and he had studied for seven years when he was 12. Even if Sun Dan It's impossible for a genius to be a scholar after studying for a month, right?"

"Scholar will definitely not win." Sun Henian said: "As for being able to read and write within a month, I think it's normal. First of all, Sun Dan has a super memory. It can be said that he has a photographic memory. If he wants to read and write, Isn’t it easy? As for the composition, don’t forget that we invited Li Meiting to deal with this boy’s test. Mr. Li will definitely set a scope for the test, get dozens of model essays for Sun Danquan to memorize, and copy them during the test It's over. There's nothing miraculous about it."

Sun Songnian slapped his head: "What you say makes sense, what you say makes sense. This Li Meiting is very good at going this way, and he has a lot of ghost ideas."

"Brother, don't forget. For this boy's test, the whole family sent money, and the people from the county and the government all benefited from my family. For the sake of my grandson's family, it is very easy to let a few people pass the test." Normally, Sun Dan got involved in two games in a row, it was also due to his luck."

"Yes, yes, yes, that's right, kid Sun Dan is lucky."

Sun Henian said again: "However, when it comes to the test in the hospital, the sometimes anonymous transcription is adopted, and no human relationship is used. My Sun family can really pass the test, and it is estimated that only one or two people can pass. I have already predicted , then Sun Dan's subject will be beaten back to its original form."

"He Nian is right." Sun Songnian smiled, "It is impossible for a person to rely on luck for a lifetime. Speaking of which, Sun Dan's identity is really a problem. He said he was from my Sun family, but I checked I searched the genealogy for a long time, but I couldn’t find it. Do you think he came to deceive my Sun family? I’ll ask someone to check it when I go back. If it turns out that Sun Dan is not my Sun family, I have to give him some Look at the colors."

"No need." Sun Henian said lightly: "January can read and write, and Sun Dan has some talents. Even if he is not my Sun family, it's nothing more than giving him a bowl of food, which is not worth much.
The older generation of my grandson's family can do things, and there are many people who can do things.But the new generation can't find many, and Sun Dan can be regarded as a servant who can be used.Find a chance and send him to Zhuangtian to practice for a few years. If he is really worthy of cultivation, he will be called back to the house to listen to him. "

"He Nian is right." Sun Songnian nodded: "I heard people say that Sun Dan is very important to my son. If he can really use it, he will be assigned to my big room as a servant."

"Okay, I'll give it to you when the time comes." From Sun Henian's point of view, Sun Dan was just a small person like a mustard seed, no different from any servant in the mansion.

After doing some homework, Sun Henian looked at the sky. Dawn had already broken in the east, and he stayed up all night.He suddenly felt anxious, he didn't know what was going on in Shandong, is the college examination about to start?
