"I've been eager to stand out at such a young age. How could it be impossible that this is just my true ability? The prefectural exam is much more difficult than the county exam. I'm already very impressive for making it onto the list."
His goal was to pass the examination to become a student, and three years later, at the age of eight, he passed the examination to become a scholar.
I spent seven years traveling abroad to study. As the saying goes, reading ten thousand books is not as good as traveling ten thousand miles!
At the age of fifteen, he took part in the provincial examination and ranked third. At the age of sixteen, he went to Beijing to take part in the metropolitan examination. At that time, those who went to Beijing to take the examination were the best in various counties and prefectures, so there was no need to hide his strength and win the first place in one fell swoop!
Suningwen has made plans for himself.
Xiao Xier looked at him suspiciously, always feeling that what he said was not true.
"If I didn't get the top spot this time, I must get the top spot in the college entrance examination three years later."
"Sister, I just passed the provincial exam, I will be satisfied if I can pass the academy exam!"
Xiao Xier smiled and blinked, "If you pass the imperial examination, you will be a scholar. I heard from mother that the top scholar is a student on government aide, and the court will give you some silver every month as a living allowance. You said that when you earn enough money, you will buy me a beautiful hairpin!"
Su Ningwen suddenly thought of his three brothers. He was the only one who was still spending money and had never earned a penny!
The eldest and second brothers have made a lot of money, he can't fall behind. The money may not be much, but he earned it himself!
"Don't worry, sister. I will work hard to get the first place in the exam and become a student on government scholarship. I will use the money the court gives me to buy you a gift!"
"Great, great!" Xiao Xier clapped her hands and cheered, "I'm really looking forward to the first gift that Third Brother earns himself for me."
Xiao Xier can be sure that the third brother is obviously hiding his strength!
Su Ningwen looked at Xiao Xier's happy expression and felt that it would cost a lot of money to raise a younger sister, especially a sister who would become the empress in the future!
Now the Princess's Mansion gives him a monthly salary, the Meng Mansion also gives him a monthly salary, and there is also the money given to him by his elder and second brothers. He has saved a big box of it!
But I didn’t earn any of this myself!
It will take many years before I can make a lot of money.
I have so much time, I can't just study! I have to build some property and earn a lot of money, so I can support my mother and sister, and in the future I will have to support...
The academy is currently unsustainable, so I need to discuss new ways to make money with my second brother...
"Now that you are a student, are you going to study in a college?"
"I will go to the academy to study after I come back from Nankun. Your matter is the most important thing, so other things will have to be put on hold."
Seeing that he was so sincere, Xiao Xier felt happy and said, "Let's go out and see if Meng Yunqian is still crying."
"Brother! Daddy said that Tianhong Academy is recruiting students for its Tongsheng class. Let's go and take the entrance exam together. Then we can go to school with Daddy!"
Su Ningwen looked at the father and son and said slowly, "Dad, let Yunqian go to the academy first? I will take the entrance exam next year. After Xiaowu is born, I will have to travel far away. I can only concentrate on studying after I return from my travels."
"Travel far? Where are you going?" Meng Yunqian asked.
"It's a very far place, and the whole family should go together!"
Meng Zilu glanced at Xiao Xier. Her life experience was still unknown, so the distant place must be related to Xiao Xier.
"It's okay. You can take the entrance exam first and reserve a spot. Then you can go directly to the Tongsheng class when you come back."
After Meng Zilu finished speaking, he looked at Xiao Xier again, very curious about her life experience.
She is so cute, so her background must be pretty good!
Xiao Xier looked at the inquiry in his eyes and raised her chin slightly.
She will be the empress in the future, and we won’t be able to see her often, so let him see her more!
"Let's go! Daddy will take you to Tianhong Academy to get familiar with the school."
Xiao Xier returned to the main courtyard. When Xiao Lingyu saw her coming, he pulled her to eat fruits and snacks.
"I heard that you asked Lei Xiao to increase the defenses in the Lengyuan? Have you interrogated Tai Zhuo?"
Xiao Xier knew she couldn't hide it, so she honestly admitted, "Yeah, I used a little trick on Merlin yesterday to deal with him, and he had a terrible stomachache. It would be great if he could also taste the strong poison that can wither vegetables."
Xiao Lingyu raised an eyebrow, "Mother gave this poison a nice name, 'All Things Wither'."
"Everything withers? What a great name! If it were any other child, they would have died of intestinal ulcers. I should have collected my urine, or I would have given it to Tai Zhuo yesterday!"
Xiao Lingyu couldn't help but frown when he thought of that interesting scene. It was so bloody and violent!
"You didn't save it, but mother did!"
"What?" Xiao Xi'er was extremely shocked, "Mom actually saved it!"
Xiao Lingyu nodded and said with a smile, "At that time, I collected it in small basins, and finally collected a large bucket! It was just for the enemy to come and give him a taste!"
Xiao Xier was stunned. Her mother was so foresighted!
"Where's the big barrel? I'll give Tai Zhuo a bowl in three days!"
Xiao Lingyu: ...
She couldn't do it! The separated urine was all used to irrigate the space vegetable garden.
I should have left one bowl!
"The smell is too strong. Tai Zhuo might die before he even drinks it!"
"I just want to disgust him. I have to taste the poison he made myself!"
Xiao Lingyu smiled and said, "I've prepared it for you a long time ago. Wait here while mother goes to get you some dried monstrous things."
Xiao Lingyu returned to the inner room, quickly closed the door, and blocked Xiao Xier outside.
Xiao Xier looked at the closed door with a pale face. Her mother actually hid all the smelly things in the bedroom!
She had slept with her mother for so long, and she didn't even smell it!
Is it because I smell too good?
Half a quarter of an hour later, the door was opened.
Xiao Lingyu came out with a small box, "This is the Wanwuku. I'll give you two first. If you encounter an unforgivable and wicked person in the future, you can let him taste the power of the Wanwuku!"
Xiao Xier looked at the two black pills in the box in disbelief, took out one and put it under her nose to sniff. There was no pungent smell, but a herbal smell with a hint of sweetness.
"Mother, is this really the withering of all things?"
"Yes! Mother separated the herb from urine and made it into pills. No! They're poison pills..."
My mother can even make poisons. She is an expert in both medicine and poison!
"I didn't expect you could make poison. Can you tell me what other skills you have, mother?"
Xiao Lingyu: "That's all mother knows. This isn't making poison, it's just wrapping the dried berries in herbs and rolling them into balls!"
"Then mother, how did you separate the dried wormwood from urine? I think this separation technique is a skill."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Lingyu lowered his eyes and looked at her carefully. He found that Xiao Xier was becoming smarter and smarter. She could even ask the key questions!
She really couldn't explain it. "The separation technique is very complicated, and it can't be explained in a few words. Now that I've given you the Wanwuku, you must use it with caution. Eating one of them will kill you!"
