Chapter 305
During this period of time, Lan Xi is also controlling and slowly changing herself, so that people around her can feel that she is making progress every day, but it will not be too obvious.

A month later, Master Liu nodded to Lan Xi with satisfaction, "Your enlightenment is about the same, you can enter Class A to study, you have made a lot of progress during this period, keep this momentum, and you will definitely be able to succeed in the imperial examination. Income."

Lan Xi nodded earnestly, and then looked at Master in embarrassment, "Master, I want to borrow your "Analects" to copy, but my family is really short of money."

You must know that books are very expensive now. A book of Analects can be bought in a bookstore for two taels of silver, but copying by yourself only costs pen and ink. The cost gap is naturally huge. Although the family may be able to take out silver, there is no need to waste this money. .

Although Liu Fuzi is a bit rigid, he treats students equally, even if there is a difference, it will not be too big, and the people who come to the private school are not too rich, and they often borrow books to copy.

"It just so happens that there is an extra copy that was copied earlier. You just take it and use it. Don't rush to return it to me."

Lan Xi bowed to Master Liu, "Thank you, Master."

In the next few days, Lan Xi began to copy books, and by the way, told Liu Cui'e that she had been promoted to Class A.

Liu Cui'e laughed from ear to ear, and praised, "You really deserve to be my Liu Cui'e's son, as smart as me."

Chang Wenwu next to him hurriedly expressed himself, and Liu Cuie added, "The second son is also like me, thanks to you inheriting my intelligence, if you are like your father, you will be ruined."

Lan Xi twitched the corners of her mouth. According to the memory of the original owner, when the original owner was slapped at school and the exam counted down, Liu Cui'e was very straightforward, "You are like your father, why didn't you inherit any intelligence from me, what a elm head."

----

Three years later, just after the New Year, Lan Xi entered the puberty period, and her height increased sharply in the past year, and she was about to exceed 1.7 meters, which was not low in ancient times.

Coupled with the slanting sword eyebrows, dark eyes, slightly straight nose, tall and straight figure, dressed in green clothes, and cool demeanor, from the outside, one would never think that he is a farmer.

The new year has just passed, and the village still has a sense of the year. Now the Chang family is getting more and more prosperous, and the stewed vegetables shop has not only opened up in the town, but also has a shop in the county.

There is even a cooperation with Manxianglou, but Dafang and Manxianglou cooperate. It is said that Chang Qiaoer cooperates with Manxianglou. Chang Qiaoer is responsible for thinking of new dishes, and Manxianglou is responsible for sales, and the two get a share.

You must know that Manxianglou is not just a restaurant in Qingyuan County. Manxianglou can be counted among restaurants all over the world, and the restaurant has already opened to the capital.

Now the few members of the Chang family are not enough, and they have already started hiring people. The family even bought two maids, one to take care of Mrs. Zhu, and the other to cook.

Now Mrs. Zhu is happy to see her teeth but not her eyes all day long. Sanfang gave birth to a son Chang Wenyu two years ago, and Mrs. Zhu is even more precious. Little Mrs. Zhu seemed to be elated, straightening her back at home.

Chang Zhongzhong is even more happy this year, because his two grandsons will have a try this year, that is, Lan Xi and Chang Wenqing, and Chang Wenwu still needs to be pressed.

Chang Zhongcheng looked at the two grandsons, one with a cold temperament and the other as gentle as jade. Although they were young, their demeanor made people feel different from others.

Just like Chang Wenwu, the three of them stood together, Chang Wenwu looked like an ordinary person at a glance, and the other two looked like princes of aristocratic families, obviously dressed in similar clothes.

Even Chang Qiao'er has to admit that Lan Xi's demeanor is better than her younger brother's. I didn't expect that the boy whose nose was smacked and cried by his master back then has grown to the point where he is now. Compared with his younger brother who he carefully taught, I heard that he has also improved a lot in his studies and has caught up with Wen Qing.

It's not that she didn't suspect that Chang Wenxuan had some secrets, whether he was the same as herself, but the changes in him did not happen overnight, and he only became smarter in his studies, and there was nothing out of the ordinary in other aspects.

Chang Zhongcheng drank some wine, his cheeks were flushed, and he took Lan Xi and Chang Wenqing's hands, "Wen Xuan, Wen Qing, you two are good boys, Wen Xuan, as the eldest brother, has set a good example for the children below , although Wenqing is young, he is talented in reading, you two brothers must support each other in the future, and the Chang family will rely on you two..."

Chang Zhongzhong was probably drunk and talked a lot. Lan Xi and Chang Wenqing didn't speak, but listened to him quietly. In the past two years, the second room is still unknown. The eldest room has Chang Qiaoer and Chang Wenqing, especially Chang Qiaoer. , is more powerful than the elders of the Chang family and has received more attention.

Because Sanfang had a son and because of Zhu's preference, sometimes she even dared to confront Dafang, and little Zhu showed off her extra gold jewelry in front of Liu Cuie.

Liu Cuie would not spoil her, so she went directly to Chang Zhongzhong to file a complaint, blatantly saying that Mrs. Zhu was eccentric, but in the end a gold bracelet was deducted from Mrs. Zhu's hand. Zhu Shi and Xiao Zhu Shi were very angry.

The second room has not received any attention in the past few years, and has been living behind closed doors, eating and drinking without worrying about food and drink. The children are gradually becoming sensible, and they don't need to be busy at home, and they don't need to help out in the shop, so Liu Cui'e has gained weight in the past two years , whiter, so the longer the longer the younger.

Now the first step of the imperial examination is about to take place, the county examination. There are five exams in total, one day for each exam. The time is on the seventh day of February, which is only one month away from now.

During this period of time, both Lan Xi and Chang Wenqing fell into intense study, and the atmosphere in the Chang family was also unusual. After all, Chang Zhongcheng had already spoken, and everything was focused on the two of them. Normally, the family could not make any loud noises.

Liu Cui'e sometimes gave Lan Xi extra meals. Seeing Lan Xi's body like a bamboo pole, Liu Cui'e couldn't help but sigh, "Tell me about you, after eating so many good things, why don't you see that you are fat and thin like a chicken?" Like a cub, not as burly as your father, nor as chubby and good-looking as Linger."

Lan Xi doesn't want to talk anymore. Although she looks thin, she hasn't given up on cultivating her internal strength in the past few years, and she hasn't let go of her usual exercise. Not to mention anything else, it's not a problem to deal with ordinary people. The body is still quite satisfactory.

As for Chang Erhai, because of his long-term labor force, he is naturally burly. It can only be said that Liu Cuie and Lan Xi have different aesthetics.

And Chang Ling'er grew up to six years old, because there was no shortage of food at home, so she was white and fat, with big and round eyes, which was very cute.

During this period of time, in the school, Liu Fuzi often taught Lan Xi, Chang Wenqing, and another student Zhang Jisheng. All three of them were determined to take the county examination this year. Among them, Zhang Jisheng had taken the county examination last year, but he only took the first Two games, and the next three games were directly brushed off because of the low ranking in the second game.

Lan Xi held the county examination papers from recent years in his hand. After all, he had passed the college entrance examination, so Lan Xi carefully analyzed the examination papers.

Generally speaking, the county examination generally tests the Four Books and Five Classics, and then goes to test post poems, poems, etc., and the direction of the questions in the past two years, and the county magistrate of Qingyuan County has always been the same in the past two years. bit.

Since the state of Wei puts more emphasis on filial piety, so did the Magistrate Gu of Qingyuan County. Use the rest of your energy to study literature."

So Lan Xi summed it up in her heart.
