This is very infuriating. The closer you are to me, the better off you are.
"How about you guys stay at my house for the time being? It can be occupied after some cleaning."
Zhao Dashu refused, not because he disliked it, but as the exam was approaching he just wanted to eat and sleep. The teacher's house was not suitable as it was full of all kinds of people and was very noisy.
"Girl, what do you say?"
There are also rooms in other inns, but they are all full. After all, there are mostly rich people there, and no one wants to suffer before the exam.
"Let's see if there's a house to rent near the Imperial Examination Hall. It will be more convenient for you to take the exam if you live closer."
"Yu girl is right." His home is far away and the living environment is not very good.
Everyone stayed and waited, only Zhao Dashu and Xiao Lei went to look for a house.
"Xiaoyu, why do you think they come so early? How much money does it cost to stay in an inn for such a long time?" I heard that the price has increased two or three times compared to before, and there are no rooms available.
"Most of the people who can go to school have money. Those who have to travel far must want to come early to review. The sooner they come, the more at ease they will be. If they are delayed on the way, they will be doomed. I heard that those who go to the capital to take the imperial examination go even earlier."
"Yu girl is right. It's better to take the exam sooner rather than later." The teacher stroked his beard. He also liked Yu girl. She was smart and clever. He knew that she was the one who took care of the house most of the time when Dashu mentioned her. It was a pity that she had been engaged so early and had to come to the house. Otherwise, he would have thought of marrying her home to be the housekeeper.
His son is not good at housework just like him, so the family really needs a capable daughter-in-law.
"Xiaoyu, if Xiao Lei passed the exam, would you ever want to come to the city to study?"
Dashu knew it and had no intention of continuing to study. He just wanted to be a leisurely rich man. Although there was not much difference in age between them, Dashu had already considered himself old enough to enjoy his life.
In terms of ambition, Xiao Lei is even better. He talked to them and said that Dashu was ready to end his career after passing the exam. He tried to persuade him for a long time but it was useless. Xiao Lei said that he still wanted to keep fighting and he also wanted to get a royal decree for his wife.
However, the teacher in the village has limited ability and is afraid that he cannot teach him. The same is true in the county. It is said that there is only one scholar who is idle at home in the entire county, and he does not teach and is not interested in him.
How can this be played? Let a scholar teach a scholar. He will only be a scholar for his whole life. Can he teach a juren? Don't joke.
Song was nervous. What did the master mean? My daughter had to move to the capital after getting married? Wouldn't that be farther away than where she lived after getting married? No, no, what was the point of her finding a live-in son-in-law?
"Let's talk about it later. Only after you pass the exam can we talk about the future, right?"
"You're right, I was too impatient."
Indeed, if the scholar fails the exam, everything is in vain. After the exam, he should persuade Dashu again. He has a very active brain and is at the age of striving. How can he rest? If he studies hard for a few more years, he is not without hope.
Even if he fails this time, so what? At his age, he can strive for a dozen years and will definitely pass the exam in his lifetime.
As long as you win, it’s all worth it!
They can be considered as master and apprentice. If all three of them could become juren, wouldn't it be great!
Well, we must pull up the big tree.
"My dear, the house has been rented. Let's go over there."
“Is it far from the examination room?”
"It's not far. There's a vegetable market at the back door, so it's convenient for you to buy things. I went in and took a closer look at the house. It's not bad. Let's go over there quickly. We have the key."
My dad is not bad, he is really reliable now.
No one in the whole city asked about the rent. I knew it wouldn't be cheap given the current situation in the city, but it didn't matter as long as it was convenient.
