This is so cool
After leaving the inn door and walking forward for more than ten steps, Xia Yuan let go of his hand, and Xia Ru immediately gasped for air.
Xia Yuan sighed, "Uncle, I was almost killed by you."
"."
Xia Ru was still panting, and after he had calmed down, he said: "It's not like you don't know that my uncle has always been unsure. Just now I listened to them noisily talking about the Analects of Confucius, which is moderate, and my heart became more and more interested.
sink."
"I have to convince them and make them admit that it comes from Mencius, then I can feel at ease."
"Then you didn't see the posture of those people? Good guy, that kick made them fly up. Aren't you afraid that they will do the same to us?"
"Don't be afraid. If it can bring peace of mind, what's the harm in getting beaten?" Xia Ru said with an awe-inspiring look on his face.
What the hell
Xia Yuan simply hates the fact that iron cannot become steel. This damn iron-headed kid really wants to fly up and give him a kick to let him experience what an Ultra Kick is. Unfortunately, he is concerned about human relations and can't do it.
"Okay, uncle, it's useless for you to argue with them. As for whether it's Mencius or not, you'll know when the results are released. If the question is not from Mencius, what's the use of you even if you beat those people?"
"Anyway, there's still a long way to go before the rankings are released. Well, how many days will it take for the rankings to be released?"
"Usually it takes more than ten days, but it will never exceed fifteen days, and it will be on the Yinchen day."
After the rural examination is over, the papers are not marked immediately. After all, it is an examination for selecting candidates, and it is not the same as the college examination and the boy's examination. The two examinations are just a name for themselves at best.
The rural examination papers not only have to be anonymous, but also have to be copied by a special person, in order to prevent the examiner who is marking the papers from identifying the person through their handwriting and then giving high marks without conscience.
After copying and copying, it’s time to mark the papers.
According to the practice of the Ming Dynasty, the grading and review time was basically about ten days, and then an auspicious day was chosen to release the results.
Of course, this so-called auspicious day is actually fixed. It is either on the Yin day or on the Chen day. Yin is tiger and Chen is dragon, which is taken from the meaning of dragon and tiger list.
"Anyway, the rankings will be released in more than ten days. Then we will naturally know where the questions come from."
Xia Ru sighed after hearing this, "Hey, that's the only way it can be."
The uncle and nephew returned to the village in an ox cart. Xia Yuan originally wanted to spend money to hire a carriage so that it would be more comfortable.
But Xia Ru felt that the carriage was too expensive. If it weren't for the fact that Xia Yuan was recovering from a serious illness, he would not have hired an ox-cart. He would have saved more money by walking back.
An ox-cart is an ox-cart, since you don’t need to walk anyway.
Xia Yuan didn't force it, and walked bumpily to Xiajiazhuang. Before he entered the village, he saw a large crowd of people gathered under the big tree at the entrance of the village.
It's almost noon, and these people are not cooking at home, so what are they doing here?
With this question in mind, Xia Yuan jumped out of the car first and ran over to watch the excitement. Taking advantage of his height, he stood on tiptoe and saw a few unfamiliar faces standing in the middle of the crowd.
This group of people also had this incense table in front of them, with a washbasin, a copper coin sword, an incense burner, and a peach wood sword. There was quite a lot of mess.
Looking left and right, I immediately discovered that there were several very familiar faces in the crowd of onlookers, including my two cousins, my cousin Xia Shu, Erniu, and my little wife.
Zhao Yuerong was standing very far inside. Xia Yuan wanted to call her, but his voice was so noisy that he was worried that she wouldn't hear, so he simply squeezed in all the way.
After squeezing his way to the little girl's side, Xia Yuan reached out and patted her shoulder.
Zhao Yuerong turned around subconsciously. He was stunned for a moment at first, then his eyes burst into joy, and he said with great joy: "Husband, you are back!"
"Um."
Xia Yuan hummed, then pointed at those people and asked curiously: "What do these people do?"
Seeing Xia Yuan pointing at those people, Zhao Yuerong panicked and quickly pulled his hand back. Then he said with a solemn face: "Husband, you can't point at Bodhisattva with your finger. This is disrespectful."
"Buddha?"
Xia Yuan was stunned and looked around at the group of people, but he didn't see anyone among them who looked like a Bodhisattva.
To put it bluntly, the old man surrounded in the middle does have some sense of immortality, but he has nothing to do with Bodhisattva.
It's not like I haven't read Journey to the West. The male Bodhisattvas in it all have lumpy heads, but this old man has hair and wears it in a bun, like a Taoist priest.
"Well, that old man is the reincarnation of the Bodhisattva. Later we will go to worship together and let the Bodhisattva bless my husband to become the number one scholar."
Xia Yuan didn't know whether to laugh or cry after hearing this, and immediately concluded: "This is a lie."
"No." Zhao Yuerong shook his head, "People in the village say it's amazing. A man in Zhuangzi next door fell seriously ill two days ago, and he was cured by this Bodhisattva."
"Yeah?"
Xia Yuan was noncommittal and did not argue any more. He looked at the chicken in her arms. It was a half-sized chicken. The combs had grown some and the feathers on the body were also very thick.
But this seems to be a dead chicken.
Uh, probably dead.
Anyway, his eyes were closed and he couldn't move while being held by the little girl.
"Are you going to give this chicken to the old Bodhisattva?"
"No, we will ask Bodhisattva to help us cure this chicken later."
"Is this chicken dead?"
"I'm not dead. I'm still breathing. With Bodhisattva here, I'm sure I can be cured."
Xia Yuan reached out and touched the chicken, "It's already cold."
Hearing this, Zhao Yuerong lowered his head and took a look, then put his little hand on the chicken's belly to feel it, "It's dead now."
"."
After a moment of silence, she cheered up again, "But it doesn't matter, the Bodhisattva is so powerful, he can definitely revive a dead chicken."
