Man Bao scratched his head, "Sister-in-law Xue said that her aunt is a little leftist, but I don't know much about it."
Man Bao waved his hand and said, "Don't talk about them, let's go play in the fields later."
Bai Shan and the others have no objection.
Counting it, they haven't been to Zhuangzi for more than a year.
There is not much change here in Pu Village, but the complexion on the faces of the people has improved a lot. Now they have a full-scale job, and if nothing else, they eat a little coarse, and they can be 70% full all year round. , and the leftover grain can be sold to save some money, which can be used for the children to marry in the future.
So the villagers working in the field saw Zhou Man and the others smiling subconsciously, greeted them enthusiastically, and carefully asked Zhou Man if his work was going well, and whether Shangguan liked it
Man Bao expressed inexplicably that the work is going well, and Shangguan... still likes it, right
After all, she has a lot of superiors, and there is no guarantee that everyone will like her.
The villagers worshiped the gods and Buddhas all over the sky, hoping that they would bless Zhou Man with a smooth and prosperous official career...
Man Bao was a little flattered. Her family's request for such a thing was reasonable, but she didn't know these villagers very well.
Prayer for gods and Buddhas needs to be enshrined. Even if there is no enshrining, it will definitely seize the share of other people's wishes. Anyway, she will not give the share of wishes to people who are not familiar with her.
Every time you make a wish, it is not your own business, but the business of the closest relatives around you.
Man Bao's expression was touched, Bai Shan dragged her away, and said after walking away: "What are you surprised about, they are begging for your official luck, but they are actually asking for success for themselves."
He said: "As long as your official career is prosperous, then this job field will always be yours, and they will be able to cultivate it forever."
Man Bao: "Then I am also very happy."
After thinking for a while, she asked in a low voice: "Tell me, there are too many people begging, will the gods and Buddhas really hear this wish, and then really make my official career prosperous?"
Bai Shan: "... Don't you not believe that there are gods and Buddhas in the world?"
Man Bao: "If it's a good thing, you can still believe it."
Not to mention Bai Shan, even Yin Ru felt that she was too careless.
A group of people walked in the field happily, and took a look at the wheat field, rice field, and various beans that had just sprouted. Manbao and the others went to see the experimental field.
Zhou Lizhong was also in Zhuangzi, and happened to introduce them.
Now the experimental field in Zhuangzi has extended to a large area, covering as much as twelve mu, which is managed by Zhou Lizhong and his father.
He took out the brochure and showed it to Man Bao, and said: "This piece is the new seed that my sister-in-law gave us in the first month of the lunar year. Now the seedlings are all planted. It seems that the seedlings are a little lean, but they have turned green now, and they are considered to have survived. "
Pointing to the two fields again, he said, "This is the No. 3 seed and the No. 2 seed from last autumn..."
Where did the type of seeds come from, and what is the yield, all of which can be traced back to the source in the book.
Zhou Lizhong has recorded whether they are resistant to cold or drought, need more water, or attract insects during their growth.
Some were ordered by Zhou Man to be recorded from the beginning, and some were added by himself.
Man Bao himself looked a little confused, but Zhou Lizhong remembered it. Whenever she went to a field, Zhou Lizhong told her the situation of the previous generation of seeds.
Bai Shan listened, and sighed: "If it weren't for you not being good at reading, you can go to the test of mathematics, and then try to enter Sinong Temple..."
Bai Shan paused at this point, then said with a sigh, "Why don't you go and try Ming Suan?"
Zhou Lizhong felt a little fluttering when he heard the reading, and he was too vain, "That's no good, I'm still learning many of the words I'm memorizing now."
In terms of farming, Zhou Lizhong was far inferior to Zhou Dalang. With the help of tenants from Pu Village, Zhou Lizhong didn't need Zhou Lizhong to take care of the ten acres of land, but why did he take care of it in the end
Is it because his father can't read well
Zhou Dalang currently only knows his own name, and some commonly used characters, and he is still in the state of knowing but not knowing how to write.
That's why Zhou Lizhong came here. He had been studying for two years at least, and had learned a lot of characters with his sister-in-law, so he knew all the basic characters.
Even if he couldn't remember how to write some words, he could still look them up in his sister-in-law's thick Ci Hai, and even if he didn't know how to write them, he could even ask his wife.
Up to now, Zhou Lizhong has not only consolidated the characters he learned before, but also learned a lot of new characters, but...he didn't have the guts to say it, so he went to the imperial examination
Let's not talk about whether he really knows how to count, even if he can, who would appreciate his words like a dog crawling
"Obviously... I feel that it is better to go to Lijun."
Man Bao: "... Obviously there are no girls to sign up."
Zhou Lizhong smiled at his aunt, but he didn't mean to go anyway.
Man Bao also felt that it was a bit difficult for him to pass the exam, so he said: "You should study first. When the time comes, I will inquire and see when there are more people who want it, so you can take the exam."
Bai Shandao: "You can go back to Luojiang County for the exam."
Bai Erlang was shocked, and looked at Bai Shan in surprise, "You want to go through the back door?"
Bai Shan couldn't help but pat him, "What are you talking about? Am I that kind of person?"
Bai Shan and Zhou Li said: "There are many people in the capital, and there are also many people who can read and write. Some people can't pass the Jinshi exam, and they can't pass the Mingjing test, so they choose the scholar, Mingshu and Mingfa. , it is supposed to be more remote, and few people go to the exam."
"But few people take the exam, and some people will take the exam, so in the capital city, these courses can get a full score, but it's different in small places." Bai Shan said: "As far as I know, no one has applied for the exam in Luojiang County for several years in a row Mining arithmetic, so no one passed the exam all the time. If you want, we can teach you later."
"There are not many books to be tested in Ming Suan, only three posts of "Nine Chapters Suan Jing", "Five Classics Suan Jing", "Wu Cao Suan Jing", "Xiahou Yang Suan Jing", "Zhang Qiu Jian Suan Jing", " Zhoubi Suanjing, Haidao Suanjing, Sun Tzu Suanjing each have one post, Zhuishu six, and Jigu Suanjing four. If you have learned these books, you will definitely be in Luojiang County can pass."
Zhou Lizhong was dizzy. He knew both "Nine Chapters of Suanjing" and "Five Classics of Suanjing". He had studied it with Mr. Zhuang, but he only learned the first part. That's enough, and now...
Zhou Li swallowed again, and looked at his sister-in-law, "Is it too late for me to start learning now?"
"It's not too late," Man Bao said, "How old are you? If you work until half a century in your life, then you will have to work for another thirty years. You will finish learning these books in two years, right?"
Zhou Lizhong shook his head again and again, wishing he could shake his head down to him.
Bai Erlang immediately said: "You can't judge others by yourself, this, this, at least four years!"
Zhou Lizhong nodded repeatedly, and then said in a low voice, "Maybe six years, or even longer."
Yin Yu: "... If you calculate it clearly, you don't even have a grade. If you do more, you will count as an official."
So do you want to think about it again
