Hello everyone.
Jin Beichen looked at everyone and greeted them with a smile.
The matchmaker he brought also greeted everyone.
Not only is she good-looking, but her smile is also incredibly beautiful.
Song Qiu tugged at Song Xia's sleeve and said, "Second sister, you're amazing! You found us such a great brother-in-law."
Song Xia smiled and began to introduce Jin Beichen and the others one by one.
She introduced everyone who was there.
That concludes the introduction.
Song Xia handed the things Jin Beichen was carrying to her father and invited them to sit in the living room.
There were Granny Song and the others.
The living room was filled with people.
Looking around.
A vast expanse of people.
We chatted for a few minutes.
Granny Song was quite satisfied with Jin Beichen. Without the matchmaker even saying anything, she asked him when he planned to marry Song Xia.
Song Xia: "..."
Does my grandma have to be in such a hurry?
Jin Beichen glanced at Song Xia and said with a smile, "I would like to get married sooner, but Xiaxia doesn't want to get married so soon, so we should wait a while before we get married."
Am I stupid?
How could you not seize such a great man!
Qiao Lianhua blurted out, "Xia'er, you're sixteen this year, not young anymore. Getting married at sixteen is just right, don't postpone it."
"that is."
Song Lao Er and Song Lao San echoed their agreement.
Upon hearing this...
Song Xia said, "I will consider your proposal."
Song Dong is here today too.
He followed Song Xia out to the outhouse, asking, "Second Sister, is he...?"
"Yes, it's the man you saw earlier..."
Song Xia replied to him.
Song Dong chuckled and said, "When I told my second sister about him before, you said he was good-looking but you couldn't eat him. In the end, you still ended up with him. What a coincidence!"
Fate is clearly something we create.
Song Xia didn't want to tell him the truth, so she didn't say anything more.
After the engagement.
Jin Beicheng would frequently travel to Mingyue Town.
Song Tiantian spends her days lying around at home.
We have the money.
The shop is ready.
Jin Beichen also bought more than a dozen servants for their family. What does she need to do now?
She was practically being fed and dressed by someone else.
soon.
Song Dong told Song Xia something: he was going to take a scientific expedition.
Upon hearing this, Song Xia sat up abruptly: "Imperial examination? How old are you again this year?"
Is this his older sister?
Song Dong said, somewhat amused and exasperated, "Second Sister, have you forgotten that I'm only two years older than you? You're sixteen this year, so I'm thirteen. My birthday is in February, which happens to be the day after my imperial examination..."
"oh."
Song Xia gazed at Song Dong and asked, "How are your preparations going? Is there anything I can help you with?"
She had barely finished speaking.
Song Dong shook his head and said, "Second sister, I don't need your help. I've prepared everything. The teacher and the others gave me a set of writing materials."
They were really good to him.
Song Xia said, "Since that's the case, then I'll prepare some food for you."
Before they knew it, it was Song Dong's turn to enter the examination hall.
Song Xia handed him all the food she had prepared.
A whole basket full.
In addition to fruit, snacks, self-heating meals, and bottled water, she also prepared some emergency medications for him.
In short, it has a little bit of everything.
Song Laosi still feels like he's dreaming; his son actually participated in the imperial examinations, just like Song Dabao and the others.
The exam took five days to finish.
When Song Dong got home, he took a good shower and then went to sleep.
The results were released three days later.
In the county examination, Song Dong passed smoothly, and among Song Dabao and Song Erbao, only Song Dabao passed.
Song Lao Er no longer has any hope for his second child.
He's tried to pass the exam for several years but hasn't succeeded. He's not cut out for studying.
He decided to let him work in the workshop.
This county-level examination.
Most of the people who attended Luo's Private School participated, and all of them who took the exam passed.
This news was released as soon as it was published.
The Luo family's private school quickly became famous in Mingyue Town.
They came to their door one by one to ask if they were still accepting students.
Luo Heng and his group had previously wanted to take in many students, but now they have no such intention and have refused them all, stating that they will not be taking in any more for the time being.
Jin Beicheng, knowing about this, gave Song Dong a nice piece of calligraphy and painting as a reward.
Song Xia gave him two hundred taels of silver directly.
The rest of the family members rewarded him.
They also gave money.
Song Dong suddenly became quite wealthy.
After the county examination, there are the prefectural examination and the provincial examination. Only by passing the latter two examinations can one become a Xiucai (a scholar who has passed the lowest level of the imperial examinations).
There have been thirteen-year-old scholars in the history of Fengling, but they were not many.
Not even a hand's width.
If Song Dong can pass the exam, he'll be quite a figure.
The prefectural examination in April.
Song Dong also passed smoothly.
only.
His ranking is not as good as before.
He ranked second in the county examination, but dropped three places to fifth in the prefectural examination.
Because of this matter.
Song Dong has been looking for his shortcomings and is studying even harder than before.
Song Xia was worried that her younger brother might have problems with his studies, so she talked to him privately a few times. Every day off, she would take him out to play and only let him study for a little while each day.
Jin Beichen wasn't idle either; he was constantly training the soldiers.
The emperor was very satisfied with the soldiers he trained.
The emperor directly appointed him as a first-rank general.
Compared to him.
Tuoba Zhen is also quite good.
With Song Xia's help and guidance, he made great progress.
This made the emperor appreciate him even more.
While keeping an eye on Song Dong, Song Xia didn't forget what she needed to do. The hybrid rice she had developed had already been planted by Song Lao Si.
She cultivated it in a space because she discovered that rice grows rapidly there. She also looked up relevant information; otherwise, how could she have produced it?
Song Xia cultivated the rice using millet she bought herself. The newly cultivated rice plants varied in height and size, so she used what she knew to find infertile plants among them.
No.
Song Xia then continued planting.
Millet grows quickly in space.
Song Xia planted quickly, and soon found several sterile plants, which she then hybridized with different plants.
Several months have passed.
Song Xia obtained the plant she wanted. Not only were the plants of the same height, but the ears of grain were also the same size. Most importantly, the yield was many times that of the original.
But that's the yield within the space; now we'll see how well it yields from the land outside.
If possible.
Even if her hybrid rice is truly a success.
Song Xia hadn't told anyone yet, so neither Jin Beicheng, Tuoba Zhen, nor her family knew about hybrid rice.
but.
Song Xia still had Song Lao Si send some rice seedlings to Song Lao Da and the others to plant.
Even if the seedlings she cultivated couldn't achieve the same effect as those in the space, or the effect she wanted, they were still better than the original seeds, right?
Both Song Laoda and Song Laosan planted the seedlings she gave them.
Song Lao Er and his family didn't want to plant the trees and wanted to let others plant them, but after being scolded by Song Pozi, they planted them anyway.
It's true that their land was leased to Song Xia.
However, they were unable to rent the land.
Because the Song and Xia dynasties only rented land, not fields.
With Song Xia's guidance.
After about half a month, Song Laoda and his team discovered that the rice they planted this year was different from that of previous years. It grew much better, and every single grain was exactly the same.
Unable to contain his excitement, Song Laoda found Song Xia and asked, "Xia'er, are the rice seedlings you gave us different?"
