An Lao San also noticed a person in the queue who had always been against him. He walked beside that person with a condescending attitude and said indifferently, "Are you here?"
The man blushed with embarrassment and stammered, "Hmm."
An Lao San felt refreshed and relieved after watching this.
Li Erhu, this bastard, used to say that his son was not good at studying. His family was playing tricks on him.
What Wenquxing descended to earth? Later, when his son passed the examination and became a student, this man avoided him, but he also followed him and refused to admit his defeat, saying that it was just luck.
Li Erhu didn't want to come either, but his family was already full of children, and wouldn't that be a nuisance? It wouldn't be easy for a woman to be among all the men. His family could pay someone else to write for him, but his father insisted that no one else's writing could compare to the writing of their own students. So, he was forced to come over, even with a kick.
In his heart, he didn't actually disagree with An Jingzhi, but he just couldn't stand An Laosan's smug look. An Laosan himself was useless and only relied on his son. He still looked so arrogant all day long, which was disgusting!
Only Li Erhu's wife knew that her husband was jealous! Both of them were idle men in the village, but Li Erhu was not so lucky. He gave birth to such a promising son, but it was still unclear whether he could rely on his son in the future.
Li Erhu's eldest son was eight years old. When An Laosan's son was sent to school, he was a challenger. When his own son reached the age, he sent his son to school as well. However, after just two days, the teacher sent him home. The teacher even withheld their tuition fees. The teacher came back and said he couldn't teach the child and told them to find someone else. Li Erhu was so angry that he picked up a cane and hit his son on the butt.
When his second son was old enough, he sent him there with great anticipation. The teacher, still remembering his eldest son's mischievous behavior in class, was impressed by Li Erhu's family and, instead of accepting tuition fees, allowed his second son to attend for a few days. Sure enough, he was sent home after three days. Just like his eldest brother, he not only refused to listen in class but also pulled his classmates' hair, causing trouble everywhere. He got into six fights in just three days...
After his dream of relying on his son was shattered, Li Dahu became more and more angry when he looked at An Laosan's face. Why were they both idle? He never had the good intention to give birth to such a promising son. So he usually tried to avoid An Laosan to avoid thinking of the stubborn stone mentioned by the two teachers in the family.
After the lively New Year, the time passed quickly and the time for the Tongsheng examination was getting closer and closer.
After communicating with the teacher and He's father, An Jingzhi decided to give He Changxing a closed training.
At this time, He Changxing had changed from a big fat man to a slightly plump teenager with a little flesh on his face.
He Changxing looked at the small cubicle in front of him with some surprise. How come it was arranged so similarly to his examination room, which was right in his yard? There was a spot of light shining through the ceiling of the cubicle, illuminating the desk in the cubicle.
"Jingzhi, what are you doing? I haven't finished my test yet. If you're fine, just let me go." He Changxing's mind was completely consumed by the exam. From scratching his head and feeling agonized at first, to now feeling uncomfortable every day without doing his exam, he felt increasingly anxious. The closer the exam got, the more anxious he became. He could only force himself to stop thinking by writing questions. Only when he was working on the questions could he find a moment of peace.
"You don't have to do any of your exams today. There are new exam questions for you to do. Right here, let's simulate the exam room."
"What?"
He Changxing was dazed and was stuffed into a small compartment by An Jingzhi. The surroundings were decorated in a very solemn manner. All the idle people in the He family had left. Uncle Zhao was in charge of supervising the exam. An Jingzhi would come to inspect occasionally. He's father and mother wanted to come too, but An Jingzhi refused and asked them to watch from a distance.
It completely simulates the environment in the examination room, and it is the worst environment. There is a wooden barrel next to He Changxing's small compartment. He can only relieve himself there these days.
During the break after finishing the test papers at noon, He Changxing took the bread stuffed in the small compartment and ate it. This was his meal for the past few days. It had no taste. It was just his usual breakfast. Fortunately, it had no taste, otherwise it would have the smell of the toilet and he was afraid that he would vomit it out.
He slept in there at night. The stench around the cubicle became worse and worse. Moreover, the space inside the cubicle was very small, even shorter than his height. He could only lie on the wooden board with his legs curled up in frustration. He tossed and turned all night, and the next day he immersed himself in doing the questions with dark circles under his eyes.
Honestly, An Jingzhi admired He Changxing's perseverance. No matter what An Jingzhi said, he would stick to it without compromise, even reluctantly giving up his favorite food. He was making progress every day. With the knowledge he possessed, he might even be lucky enough to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar. As long as he could overcome his psychological barriers, if such a person still couldn't succeed, there must be something behind it.
The He family's courtyard was silent, save for Uncle Zhao, who paced back and forth, imitating the exam room inspector. The stench was so bad that even he couldn't stand it. On the first day, there was only He Changxing's own excrement, but on the second day, An Jingzhi had the He family's servants bring in a lot of other people's excrement. After all, when you're taking an exam in the exam room, it's impossible to have only a small amount. Now the stench was so strong that the whole He family could smell it.
The servants in the house all knew that the young master was taking a mock exam and could only endure it as much as possible, but the people around the He family started to scold him, and He's father even paid a lot of compensation.
The people around them couldn't stand it, and He Changxing, who was next to the toilet, was even more devastated. He had taken the exam twice, but he was lucky and had never been assigned to such a bad place. Obviously, he failed this time.
Although it was not in the examination room and it was just a mock exam, it was very real. He Changxing was dizzy because of the stench. It was okay at first, but later he became more and more unbearable. As a young master who lived a life of luxury, he had never suffered such humiliation. The next day, he could not eat the tasteless cake. It felt like he was eating excrement. He forced himself to eat, but he could not help but vomited while eating.
After the first exam, he was completely depressed for three days.
Before he could rest, he started simulating the second exam the next day. There were three examinations for Tongsheng, each lasting three days.
After resting for a day, the small compartment he entered for the second time had some changes. The roof was even more broken. It was just the beginning of spring and the weather was still a bit cold. This time, he not only had to endure the stench of the toilet, but also the invasion of the cold wind.
