then.
Pei Jian then honestly confessed everything about how he had deceived Mrs. Cui and Cui Zhongyuan into writing a statement of innocence and putting their fingerprints on it.
Cui Xian asked, "What about the joint guarantee and bond documents?"
Pei Jian whispered, "Most people definitely can't do it, but you're a little prodigy. When they heard that they could guarantee you, they were so happy that they agreed on the spot."
“…”
You are worthy of it, Pei Jian.
This matter is really quite serious. After all, it concerns scientific research and is not a joke.
Cui Xian thought quickly in his mind about how to fill this gap, but he remained calm and asked, "Then tell me, why did you apply for the exam for me?"
"You have to get yourself drunk before you dare to come see me."
Pei Jian was stunned when he heard this.
He leaned against the wall, not daring to look at Cui Xian, and whispered, "You...just treat me as the foolish and foolish dude who loves to get into trouble, the rotten wood brother that everyone despises. Anyway, I have always been such a bad person, and I will never be able to help myself."
Cui Xian squatted down beside him and said "hmm" calmly.
Pei Jian was very hurt: "Why are you like this?"
This time Cui Xian simply ignored him.
Pei Jian panicked. He stood up in a hurry, and his voice was a little tearful: "I, I don't know if there is something wrong with me. I just did this in a fit of anger! After I registered for you, I was so panicked."
"I haven't slept well these past few days. I've been asking around to make sure this matter doesn't violate the law and you won't be implicated."
"Sometimes I wonder how a piece of shit like me could be so lucky to be your brother."
"When we were writing Rainbow Cat together last year, I really thought I had gotten better and could read books. I even thought that we brothers could work together to achieve great things."
"But I found that I really can't do it."
"No matter what you learn in class, you can master it immediately. You can write poems, quote books you have read, and quote classics. Even the famous scholar Dong Lai accepted you as his disciple and held a banquet for you. Hundreds of famous families congratulated you."
"I was standing by and clapping for you excitedly, but... but I felt bad too. Gao Qi, Zhuang Jin and the others all felt bad too."
"They always say that you will become more and more powerful and leave us far behind. I get annoyed when I hear that and want to try to catch up with you! But the more I learn the eight-part essay, the more difficult it becomes."
"I attended classes at the clan school during the day, and my grandfather gave me extra lessons at night. I studied until midnight every day, but it was still not working. I still couldn't understand it."
"My grandfather was so angry that he kept scolding me. When I went to the clan school, Wu Qinglan would scold me after every exam. I couldn't understand why I was such a loser."
"Even now, when I hear about the exam, my whole body starts to tremble. I start to retch out of fear and can't eat."
Speaking of this, Pei Jian choked up a little.
He wiped his tears, looked at Cui Xian, and said, "So, I secretly threw away my application documents and submitted yours. Brother Xian, I thought that if I can no longer be brothers with you, why not, I will register for you."
"You are still young. Even if you fail the exam, you can still get familiar with the exam room. At least you won't waste the money for the exam."
"Just think of it as you taking the exam for me, big brother."
"One day in the future, if you win the first place in the imperial examination, I will be able to share in the glory and at least get some credit. Just think of this as the last time I will do something for you."
"Big brother has no hope in this life anyway, so you should win the top spot in the imperial examination for him and shine brightly in the outside world for him."
"But when you see Big Brother, don't deny me! Because even if I'm thick-skinned, I'll still feel bad."
The more he spoke, the louder he cried, and his tears kept falling.
No wonder he chose to drink some wine before coming to see Cui Xian. He usually only dared to keep such hypocritical words in his heart, so how could he dare to say them out loud?
Cui Xian listened carefully at first.
But the more I listened, the more speechless I became, and I even felt like laughing. In the end, I couldn't hold it back anymore and just laughed.
It turns out that the mental journey of a rebellious little boy during adolescence is so tortuous and complicated.
Like a fool.
However, this also reminded Cui Xian.
He passed away so quickly, and his family and friends must have felt very stressed, with Pei Jian being the most stressed out.
That’s why what happened today happened.
It seems that 'family literacy classes', 'imperial examination tutoring classes', 'five-year imperial examination and three-year simulation' and the like should be put on the agenda as soon as possible.
Pei Jian looked at him blankly with red eyes.
Cui Xian patted his robe and stood up, saying, "Okay, I got it, you can go back now."
After saying that, he returned home alone.
Pei Jian was left standing there alone, looking anxious and flustered.
No, you should at least give me some definite answer.
Got it, what does it mean?
