Chapter 281 It’s Not That Easy
However, Jiang Tangtang would not put Lu Zhiyi in an important position without careful observation.
"You have to take an exam to be a yamen clerk. If you pass the exam, you can become a clerk. If you fail the exam, I won't give you a backdoor."
Because of a sudden drought, Jiang Tangtang postponed his exams originally scheduled for April for several months.
Chen and Lu Zhiyi both opened their mouths wide and looked at Jiang Tangtang in surprise. "Women can also take the exam for government positions?"
"Of course! Women are human beings too, why can't they participate?"
"But..." They had never heard of women being officials. From childhood to adulthood, they had been taught to stay at home to take care of their husbands and children, and they had long been accustomed to the fact that officialdom was dominated by men.
It was not until he came to Lingnan that Jiang Tangtang personally broke this eternal rule that had existed for thousands of years.
But who is Jiang Tangtang? She is a disciple of a god. How can ordinary people like them compare to her?
"There's nothing to worry about. If you want something, just fight for it. I won't give anyone a backdoor."
Jiang Tangtang stood up and gave Lu Zhiyi a final reminder: "The yamen clerk exam is in October. You still have time to prepare, but not much time."
After saying that, she raised her hand and signaled Yuan San to take the person out.
Chen and Lu Zhiyi were both stunned, shocked by the news Jiang Tangtang told them. They walked a long way before they remembered that they had not thanked Jiang Tangtang. They turned around and saluted Jiang Tangtang from a distance to express their gratitude.
For Jiang Tangtang, the two now only have admiration in their hearts.
After the mother and daughter left, Jiang Tangtang was finally able to enter the space.
She first went to check the wild rice that she had planted yesterday. Although it had only been a day and a night, the wild rice had grown to more than ten centimeters tall.
Jiang Tangtang looked at the land where wild rice was growing and hesitated for a moment, but still did nothing.
This land is neither saline land nor muddy land by the sea. Logically, this environment should be different from the living environment of wild rice, but everything in this space cannot be explained by common sense.
Jiang Tangtang turned around to look at the rice planted in the space.
Since the drought, Jiang Tangtang has planted various high-yield crops in the space again.
The space was not affected at all by the drought outside, and the crops in the space continued to grow rapidly as usual.
Jiang Tangtang had already filled several granaries with food thanks to his own efforts. If the drought continued unabated, he could use some of it to meet an emergency.
It was just too tiring. She had to deal with official duties during the day and return to the space to farm at night. It was true. Every grain of food was the fruit of her hard work. She didn't want to take a single grain out unless absolutely necessary.
Looking at the rice that was about to mature in the rice fields, Jiang Tangtang gritted her teeth and once again thought of dragging Lu Shiyan to the space to do hard labor.
The rice didn't need to be harvested today, but the corn in the cornfield was ripe. Jiang Tangtang sighed, resignedly picked up the backpack and sickle to pick the corn.
She could only be thankful that she had the ability to teleport objects, so she didn't have to carry the corn to the warehouse in baskets.
It's dry outside now, and the corn stalks in the space are a good thing. Jiang Tangtang cut them into bundles with a sickle and put them away, waiting for an opportunity to take them out to feed the livestock.
After harvesting the corn, Jiang Tangtang ate some fruits and rested for a while, then drove the tiller to plow the land and replant corn.
By the time everything was done, it was already past ten o'clock.
At this time, in ancient times when there was not much entertainment, most people were asleep.
Jiang Tangtang took a shower, changed her clothes, and sat on the tatami to practice for half an hour before getting up and leaving the space.
When Yuan San saw Jiang Tangtang leaving, he immediately wanted to take people to follow him. Jiang Tangtang raised her hand to stop him, "No need to follow. I just couldn't sleep and took a walk around. There's no danger. You're all tired after a day, go back and rest!"
Ever since Jiang Tangtang was stabbed last time and summoned a big tiger out of thin air, everyone in the guard team felt that Jiang Tangtang really had the help of gods.
Otherwise, how could such a huge tiger appear out of nowhere?
Yuan San fully believed that Jiang Tangtang was capable of protecting herself. However, protecting Jiang Tangtang was the responsibility and mission of their escort team. How could he dare to go back and rest?
Jiang Tangtang said seriously: "This is an order!" As she spoke, she summoned Lili and rode on it.
Looking at the big tiger that was summoned out of thin air, Yuan San and the guards on duty were full of admiration and envy.
Jiang Tangtang sighed helplessly in her heart. It wasn't that she was trying to show off, it was just that what she was about to do wouldn't be convenient for them to follow.
I can only pretend.
Under the envious gazes of the guards, Jiang Tangtang rode Lili towards the wasteland.
Even at night, the herbs in the medicine field did not regain their vitality, and their leaves drooped and drooped.
There are many medicinal herbs here, all of which Jiang Tangtang found from various places, cultivated in the space, and then planted here.
Jiang Tangtang was reluctant to let them die like this, so she rode Lili in the medicinal field and watered the medicinal herbs.
She didn't water it much, but the spiritual spring was full of spiritual energy, so even if she watered it little, it would be enough to keep the herbs going for a while.
During this period, Jiang Tangtang also rescued several dying medicinal herbs into the space.
After watering his own medicinal field, Jiang Tangtang continued to patrol the village on his bicycle. If he saw someone whose crops could still be saved, he would water them.
While Jiang Tangtang was leisurely patrolling the fields on a tiger, Lu Lang and Meng were almost frightened by the roar of a tiger in the woods.
Meng trembled and grabbed Lu Lang's arm, saying in a trembling voice, "Lu Lang, it's a tiger's roar. What should we do?"
Lu Lang was not much better off than Meng. If it weren't for the dry weather, he wouldn't have found any water to drink along the way and would have been so dry that he would have wet his pants by now.
"It sounds like the sound is far away. Let's climb up a tree and hide first." Lu Lang tried his best to make his voice sound steady, but his panicked look while climbing the tree still revealed the fear in his heart.
He climbed up the tree in a hurry, but because of lack of practice, he couldn't climb up the tree at all.
On the contrary, although Meng was a woman, she climbed up the tree with nimble hands and feet because she had been doing farm work for many years.
Seeing that Lu Lang almost slipped off the tree several times, Meng quickly reached out to help him.
Lu Lang felt that it was a bit embarrassing for him, a grown man, to have to rely on a woman to climb a tree.
But hearing the whistling sounds, he no longer cared about his face, and hurriedly grabbed Meng and climbed up using his hands and feet.
After finally climbing to the top of the tree, Lu Lang felt like he was half dead. His throat was dry and his stomach was aching with hunger. But because they had run so fast, they hadn't brought any convenient food.
He only brought a little change, but in the mountains, this money was useless.
He brought a dagger and a machete, and thought it would not be difficult to hunt some game to fill his stomach once he entered the forest.
But he saw that he couldn't catch the rabbit.
He found that everything was far from as easy as he thought.
