The next day, the two families returned to the village at the same time. Since they were together, the eldest brother Zhao got on the mule cart of the third brother.
"Third brother, are you going back to the village too?" He didn't want him to go back to the village at all. Was he doing this on purpose? He could show off his achievements as soon as they came out and suppress his son completely.
"Well, let's go back." Zhao Dashu didn't tell others that he wanted to take the examination for a scholar. The results hadn't come out yet, and he didn't want others to think that he was overestimating his abilities and aiming too high.
There are people at home, so the house is very clean. They will come back to stay during the holidays in the next few days, so everything is ready.
Knowing that he had returned to the village, several old friends immediately came to invite him for drinks.
"Has the boy from our village returned?"
"Dashu, how did you do in the exam? The brothers are all waiting for your good news!"
"Who knows? The results haven't come out yet."
"It's okay. We've only been in school for a few years. If you don't pass, you can try again. If you pass, you'll be a genius! We'll hold a party for you to celebrate!"
Brothers, these are real brothers!
"Da Shu, when the results are out, we'll go and help you check."
"Five days later."
"My dear, your family is waiting for our news. By the way, do you want to have a drink with us today? You have to let loose after working so hard for so many days."
Zhao Dashu waved his hand. He was not meant to drink. "Maybe later. I have to go to the Master's place."
"You still need it, 㵕, we won't bother you anymore, we'll help you check the list in a few days."
He doesn't care about who else is better, just look at how hard others try. They can't do it, absolutely not.
A few people who were self-defeating went drinking together. Well, they were not good at studying and got a headache just by looking at the words.
Zhao Dashu took Xiao Lei to find the teacher, Zhao Xiaoyu and Song packed up their things, and Lihua ran to find Chunmiao.
Speaking of which, Chunmiao is already a mother. Seeing a person with baby fat on her face holding a baby in her arms, Zhao Xiaoyu felt extremely complicated.
"Xiaoyu, go check what's in the kitchen and what to eat tonight. I'll just clean up here."
"OK."
They brought some vegetables back from the county town, and there should be some vegetables grown in the vegetable garden at home, after all, the housekeepers also need to eat.
"Miss, how about having dumplings for dinner tonight, and also stew some chicken soup and stir-fry two vegetarian dishes."
"Okay, that's good enough. By the way, peel more garlic." His father loves garlic very much, and dumplings and noodles are absolutely indispensable to it. My mother is also quite miserable. She often has an animal sleeping next to her, and the smell is very strong.
"Master!"
"How did you do on the test?"
Zhao Dashu grinned, "Not bad."
The teacher was relieved, and he said that as long as the two of them didn't cause any trouble, they would have no problem passing the exam. "Write me the last chapter of your exam."
The two sat down to write the first chapter.
"Not bad, not bad. You should be able to get a good ranking." The teacher was particularly optimistic about Xiao Lei, and when villagers asked him about him, he was full of praise.
Dashu is not bad, but he is still far behind his son-in-law.
"Lei Zi, are you planning to take the exam to become a scholar?"
"I have this idea, what do you think, Master?"
“I think I can give it a try.”
Zhao Dashu is unhappy. What's wrong? Is he not good enough? Is he bad enough?
