Chapter 1341 The County Examination Begins
After Da Niu finished these tasks, Zhou Qiao sent him back to the manor to work.
Zhou Qiao felt that it was unreasonable for Da Niu to stay with her during her postpartum period after A Yu had given her so much profit sharing and bonus.
Now that her health is gradually improving and she has people he hired to take care of her, her postpartum period is going much better than most people's.
Therefore, Da Niu returned to the village, but he would come back every day or two.
However, with a senior expert managing things, Shu Yu's life became much easier.
She bought another large plot of land, not far from the workshop. Actually, she wanted to connect the whole plot, but unfortunately, she couldn't do it for the time being.
However, the newly planted sunflowers will not be ready for harvest for several months, but the original stock is almost used up.
Shu Yu then started thinking about what else she could come up with, and she decided to make instant noodles.
But before she could even begin, the county examination started.
Shu Rui, Er Niu, and Da Bao, who were originally studying at the school, were all on holiday, but the three of them went to the outside of the examination hall to experience the tense atmosphere of the exam in advance.
Shu Yu also went. She sat in the carriage, but her thoughts were on Meng Yunzheng, who was far away in Changjin Prefecture.
He should be entering the examination room by now.
After the examination hall doors closed, Shu Rui ran back to the carriage and drank a couple of sips of tea.
Seeing his second sister gazing into the distance, lost in thought, he quickly climbed onto the carriage shaft, patted her hand, and said, "Second sister, don't worry, Brother Meng will definitely be fine."
Shu Yu snapped out of her reverie and couldn't help but laugh, "You seem to have a lot of faith in him."
Shu Rui puffed out his chest and said confidently, "Of course, my brother Meng is very good at studying. I was originally the last one to enter the school, and I had no foundation at all, so I often didn't understand things. Later, when I went to the southwest, my brother Meng taught me to study, and when I came back, he was the one who devised a study method for me. The teacher said that now I study as if I have divine help, and my ranking in the small tests is getting better and better. Last time I even got first place."
How long has he been studying? How long have the other students in the school been studying?
Even though Shu Rui has some talent for studying, without Meng Yunzheng, he would still only be at the bottom.
“Even Master Wen consults Brother Meng when he doesn’t understand something,” Shu Rui said, then suddenly lowered his voice. “Master Wen said that Brother Meng will definitely be the top scorer in this exam. It’s a pity he’s not from Jiangyuan County.”
Otherwise, Jiangyuan County would have produced a talented individual.
Shu Yu raised an eyebrow. Of course, she had confidence in Meng Yunzheng. Someone as intelligent as him should have taken the county examination when he was ten years old. If it weren't for the years of delay caused by revenge, he would have already achieved great success.
“I’m not worried. I just hope he can come back as soon as he finishes his exam.”
Upon hearing this, Shu Rui looked at her with some sympathy.
No way, it's not that early. After the county exam, there's the prefectural exam and the provincial exam, which will take at least several months.
but……
"When Brother Meng returns, he will be a scholar."
Everyone is very confident about this.
Shu Yu's attention to the county examination lasted only a day before he was drawn to other things.
The newly appointed county magistrate has finally arrived in Jiangyuan County.
However, since the county examination is currently underway, even if Xiang Weinan has already handed things over with him, he will have to wait until the results of the county examination are released before he can return to the capital.
The new county magistrate, surnamed Xie, was a lean man over fifty years old.
On his first day there, Shu Yu was summoned to the county government office by Xiang Weinan and met this Lord Xie.
