Nongmen Shuxiangzhi returns to ancient writing books

Chapter 291

New Year's Eve is the most important festival of the year.

Every household, the whole family is happy, fireworks and firecrackers, happy and harmonious.

Throughout the first lunar month, the village was extremely lively. Those who hadn’t seen each other for a long time took advantage of the Spring Festival to visit relatives and friends, and all of them were smiling brightly.

There are many children in Chuchu's family, which is especially lively.

During the Chinese New Year, Chu Chu wrapped red envelopes for all three children as lucky money, Chu Dazhuang and Liu Shi insisted that Chu Chu was also a child and wrapped red envelopes for her.

The three children who had the red envelopes went to the temple fair in the town for a walk. They had food in their mouths and carried it in their hands. It was good to have money, and they could buy whatever they wanted!
Chu Hong and Chu Xuan were very excited. This was the first time for the two of them to visit a temple fair. In the past, during temple fairs, they were basically at home or playing with a group of friends in the village.

The two also met Zhu Fugui and Yun Zixuan at the temple fair. After the temple fair, Yunshui Academy started classes, and Zhu Fugui arrived in the town ahead of schedule to prepare some daily necessities. He would not be in a hurry when he went to the academy tomorrow.

Chu Chu chatted and laughed with a few people, looked at things here and there, and when they met those who wanted to buy, they just paid for money, and Chu Chu didn't stop them, as long as they had fun.

"Chu Hong, what's wrong with your sister? Why does it feel like she's not very happy?" Yun Zixuan asked with a frown.

Chu Xuan and Chu Hong turned their heads and took a look. Chu Chu was standing on the side of the road and waved to them. The smile on her face was still there, but it made people feel that she was not very happy.

"It's been like this since the end of the new year. It's not that I'm unhappy, but I just don't have much interest." Chu Hong said.

"It must be because it's too boring." Zhu Fugui was very sure. As for who gave him confidence, no one knew.

He trotted a few steps and came to Chu Chu, "Sister Chu, when will the second volume of "The Legend of Xiu Xian" be finished? It has been several months!"

"It's almost time to print." Chu Chu looked at the fat guy with eager eyes and said with a smile.

"It's a little bit worse! In fact, there is nothing interesting about this temple fair. Sister Chu, don't you have no interest in this place? If that's the case, don't waste your time here, or go back as soon as possible to get rid of the bad things." Get it done, I can't wait!"

Zhu Fugui's eyes were full of longing.

Chu Chu couldn't help crying and laughing, and couldn't help but wonder, did she bring the child down?
Suddenly, she looked at him with a serious face, "You are a student of the academy now, you have to study hard, how can you put all your energy on the scriptures? How can you care about studying like this?"

Zhu Fugui's bright eyes suddenly dissipated and turned gray, "I'm really not a material for studying. My father just sent me to this academy, thinking that if I came to study, I would pass the imperial examination and become a high official!"

"How can the imperial examination be so simple?" Yun Zixuan sighed.

"No, that's what I told my dad. Then, my dad thought I was changing ways to ask him for money, but he just gave me more money every time, and didn't care about what I said at all."

Zhu Fugui was also helpless.

Chu Xuan glanced at him, "Do you know that you deserve a beating for saying such things!"

Giving more money is such a good thing, it's really easy to itch when he says it in this tone, and if one is not careful, it is very likely to wave it.

"What I said is the truth!" The chubby Zhu Fugui tried to open his little eyes wide, emphasizing very seriously.

"It's even worse!" Chu Xuan, Chu Hong, and Yun Zixuan said in unison.

"Pfft—" Chu Chu laughed out loud, they were really interesting.

"Sister Chu, they are obviously bullying me. Only the second volume of "The Legend of Xiu Xian" can heal my pain." Zhu Fugui moved to Chu Chu's side pitifully.

"Actually, studying does not necessarily require taking the imperial examination. It is the most important thing to know people and reason, to understand righteousness, and to tell right from wrong. You should think that reading is to learn the principles of life, not to take the imperial examination. Don't mention reading. Just resent."

Chu Chu's attitude was very serious, Zhu Fugui stopped making jokes, and stood upright obediently, as if listening to the training seriously.

"It's not that you can't read the storybook, but you can't overdo it. It's good to look through things that don't matter. Like you, the class will start tomorrow. If you still think about the storybook today, it's not appropriate."

Chu Chu said.

"That's right, after the class starts, there will be a selection of supervising students. The selected students can go to the Imperial College in Beijing to study. This is a great opportunity. How can you put your mind on the storybook at this time?"

Yun Zixuan said with a serious face.

Zhu Fugui said nonchalantly, "That's Guozijian! Guozijian! The best academy in the entire Ming Dynasty is full of students from famous families, and there are so many high-school students in the capital! How can it be possible for someone like me to go to Guozijian ? It’s about the same for you and Chu Hong to go!”

Yun Zixuan didn't speak anymore, because there was only one person who could go.

Everyone knew this news on the day Yunshui Academy started classes.

I heard that there is an opportunity to study in the Imperial Academy in the capital, and the students in the academy are very excited. The Imperial Academy and their academy are completely at two levels.

Every time in the final palace examination, the champion, the second place, and the best candidate, there is always one from the Imperial Academy. There are several times when the Imperial Academy frantically won the top three!

For this reason, Guozijian is a place that many students who want to pass the imperial examination are very yearning for. Regardless of the size of the place, there are people who yearn for it, and Yunshui Academy is no exception.

However, there is only one quota, and there is only one quota, no matter which college it is in, it is the object of competition. The bigger the college, the more serious the atmosphere of competition. On the contrary, some small colleges, although there is competition, but, But not as intense as the Great Academy.

After all, after entering the Imperial Academy, you just want to study in the capital. Shu Xiu is not something ordinary people can afford, plus some daily expenses, it is not something ordinary people can afford.

Therefore, even in Yunshui Academy, those who are truly competitive can be counted with a single slap.

Good homework, talented, able to afford the high cost of the capital, there are really not many people who combine the three. Among them, Yun Zixuan and Chu Hong are the most competitive, and the relationship between these two is very good.

But in the end, the academy still decided to pass the exam to decide the candidate.

"Chu Hong, we can finally compete, this time I will definitely win against you!" Yun Zixuan was full of confidence.

"It's because you are stronger." Chu Hong was telling the truth, not because he had no fighting spirit. He was only eight years old, and Yun Zixuan was already 15 years old. Moreover, Master Yun taught him since he was a child. Up.

"What you said doesn't count, you'll only know after you've done it!" Yun Zixuan didn't have the conceit he had before, and the last exam made him a lot better in character.

Chu Hong didn't say anything, just went back to the room.

Guozijian, he naturally wanted to go too, but, a place like the capital city and the cost made him a little hesitant. The money spent on studying in Guozijian for one year can be spent in Yunshui Academy for more than five years.

Although the family now has a shop and is starting to make money, Chu Hong knows that the shop is owned by Ye Yixiao, and Chu Chu paid for the initial capital. There were no problems with these things, but it has been February, and Ye Yixiao is still not making a sound. No.

Even Ye Yi didn't have any rumors, and there were rumors in the market that Ye Yixiao was going to marry the Seventh Princess of Xiliang, which forced Chu Hong to have other ideas.

If Ye Yixiao can't marry Chuchu, then this shop must pay rent, the rent is deducted every year, and the Luo family is a partnership, and their family can't earn much.

Under such circumstances, it would be a bit reluctant to support him to go to the Imperial College. He didn't want to increase the burden on his parents and sister.

"I said, what are you doing just sitting there? Don't hurry up and review the book, Yun Zixuan will not show mercy, Guozijian, what a great opportunity, you can't let it go!"

Seeing his sad face, Zhu Fugui hurried over and said.

"What kind of water do you put in? Yun Zixuan is very powerful, okay? Even if I try my best, I don't know if I can catch up with him, so let's release water?" Chu Hong gave him a supercilious look.

"Since that's the case, why don't you hurry up and review your papers! Don't you want to be the number one scholar? You have to grasp such a great opportunity!" Zhu Fugui tried to persuade him earnestly, as if he was a big brother.

"I was just thinking, can people from a small place like us go to a place like the capital?" Chu Hong said indifferently.

"Hey, who said that Yun Zixuan is very good just now? You said that you will definitely be able to go!" Zhu Fugui gave him a supercilious look.

Chu Hong stopped talking, picked up a book, and read it seriously.

"The room is reserved for you. You study hard, you know?" Zhu Fugui got up and went out.The moment he closed the door, he immediately walked towards the gate of the academy.

It is impossible to leave the academy at this time, the gatekeeper will never let him go, the only possibility is to climb the wall!
Although Zhu Fugui is a fat man, he is very flexible and fat, all thanks to the Taekwondo he learned from Chu Hong and Chu Xuan.

At ten o'clock in the evening, I saw a round figure, stepping on the stones very nimbly, climbing up the top of the wall, and then jumped up and down. The movements were very skillful, and it seemed that I didn't know how many times he had jumped.

After Zhu Fugui successfully came out of the academy again, for the first time, he didn't go to Ye Fangzhai, his favorite, to buy scripts, but went to Yi'an Home.

In the shop, Chu Chu is helping to arrange the new main theme.

That's right, it's the theme.

The two spacious places in the shop have been clearly made into a modern model room. This will be the step of the living room. One is a low-key luxury style, and the other is a simple and tidy style, allowing customers to choose.

Zhu Fugui ran all the way over, feeling the flesh on his face trembling, and he was out of breath.

"Chu... Sister Chu, you..." Before he could finish his sentence, he had already put his hands on his waist and began to pant heavily.

"Why are you in such a hurry?" Chu Chu poured a glass of water and brought it over, "Go easy, drink some water, and rest for a while before we talk."

Zhu Fugui drank more than half of the glass in one gulp, and then calmed down his burning throat, "I'm here to tell you about Chu Hong."

Hearing that it was Chu Hong, Chu Chu immediately became serious. If it was not a serious matter, this little fat man would not have ran out of the academy in such a hurry.

"Speak slowly, speak clearly, and don't rush."

"It's about the Imperial College..."

Although Zhu Fugui may be lacking in talent and learning, he is a logical, well-organized person who is very good at grasping the key points, and he can explain things clearly in a few sentences.

"You mean, Ah Hong wants to go to the Imperial College to study, but he is worried about the cost?" Chu Chu is also a master at focusing on key points.

Zhu Fugui nodded, "I feel so. To put it bluntly, this is an exam. Chu Hong didn't face the exam like this before. This time I always feel that he has a lot of worries."

Chu Chu smiled and patted him on the shoulder, "I see, thank you this time, I came here specially."

Zhu Fugui blushed a little, reached out and touched his nose, a little embarrassed, "Chu Hong is my brother, sister Chu, you don't have to be so polite! Of course, it would be even better if I could read the second volume of "The Legend of Xiuxian" gone."

Chu Chu looked at him helplessly, why does this kid like reading scripts so much?She turned around and went to the counter, and took out a booklet, which was obviously the second volume of "The Legend of Xiuxian" that had just been printed.

When Zhu Fugui saw it, his eyes lit up, and he hurried forward, reaching out to pick it up.

Chu Chu abruptly withdrew, "Study hard, don't go too far!"

Zhu Fugui nodded again and again, "Definitely! Master even praised my handwriting improvement today! Sister Chu, don't worry!"

Then Chu Chu handed him the script again.

Before Zhu Fugui had time to look at it, Chu Chu pulled him out of the shop, "Come back to the academy with me first, you must have sneaked out?"

Zhu Fugui could only hold back the itching, and followed Chu Chu back to the academy.

In the room, Chu Hong really wasn't reviewing the book. Although the book was spread out on the table, his thoughts had already flown to nowhere, and he didn't even notice that Zhu Fugui and Chu Chu came in.

Chu Chu directly closed the open book, "If you don't want to review the book, don't read it, it's better to go out for a few laps, or practice a few punches, it's better than wasting time like this."

Chu Hong stood up, a little surprised, "Sister, why are you here?"

"What do you think?" Chu Chu raised her eyes.

Chu Hong glanced at Zhu Fugui who was standing behind Chu Chu, and instantly knew what was going on, so he immediately glared at Zhu Fugui.

Zhu Fugui shivered in fright, "Sister Chu, you guys talk slowly, I'll go out for a walk."

After speaking, he ran away like a rabbit. Although he was three years older than Chu Hong, he was still a little afraid of him most of the time.Fortunately, the second volume of "Xiu Xian Zhuan" has already been obtained, so I will find a place to read it first, and then I will be serious about it!

Only Chu Chu and Chu Hong were left in the room.

"Sister, don't listen to Zhu Fugui's nonsense, I have nothing to do." Chu Hong broke the silence.

"Are you worried that there is no money at home for you to go to the Imperial College?" Chu Chu hit the nail on the head.

Chu Hong thought of a lot of excuses, opened his mouth, and under the gaze of Chu Chu's clear eyes, he still didn't say a word. He knew that no matter what he said, he couldn't hide it from his sister.
