When Li Qingzhi saw his name, Zhu Xunmiao also saw it. He turned his head excitedly and wanted to say something, but when he opened his mouth, the bun in his mouth almost fell out.
After swallowing the bun, Zhu Xunmiao said excitedly: "Brother Li, you are the first in the case!"
After saying that, Zhu Xunmiao continued to squeeze forward—he hadn’t seen the complete list yet!
Not long after, Zhu Xunmiao came out from the crowd, looking excited: "I won! Haha! I won!"
Zhu Xunmiao has been carefully taught by Li Xiucai since he was young. He has worked very hard this year. Not long ago, he was instructed by County Magistrate Gou...
His score in this provincial examination was not at the top, but he was still on the list.
After a while, Xu Qifei also squeezed out of the crowd with a red face: "I won too!"
Xu Qifei studied much harder than Zhu Xunmiao. After getting to know Zhu Xunmiao, he relied on Zhu Xunmiao to read some books that he might not have been able to read before.
Plus, Magistrate Zhang didn't ask any weird questions... His ranking was slightly higher than Zhu Xunmiao's.
At this time, more and more people read the entire list.
This time, Magistrate Zhang selected a total of fifty-six people, so the vast majority of people were not on the list.
These people were very disappointed, but no one said that Magistrate Zhang was unfair.
They are very clear about their own level, and those who are on the list this time are all well-known - even Zhu Xunmiao and Xu Qifei, they followed Li Qingzhi out and made many acquaintances.
The classmate who came to the city with Li Qingzhi to take part in the provincial examination unfortunately failed this time.
Zhu Xunmiao and Xu Qifei came forward to comfort him. After feeling upset, he quickly accepted the reality: "It's normal that I'm not on the list. The master has so many sons, but only two of them passed the provincial examination. My knowledge is not as good as theirs, nor as good as yours."
Li Xiucai's sons all studied, but until now, none of them had passed the examination to become a scholar, and some of them even failed to pass the county examination.
No matter what, this provincial examination was a mixed bag of things.
Zhu Xunmiao was particularly excited. He squeezed out of the crowd with Li Qingzhi and others, and then said, "Let's go to the restaurant for breakfast. I'll treat you!"
Li Qingzhi, who had already eaten a lot, agreed without thinking: "Okay."
There are many foods to choose from in the restaurant.
Zhu Xunmiao asked them to order dishes, and Li Qingzhi was not polite at all and ordered a bowl of eel noodles.
The others also ordered noodles. Zhu Xunmiao also ordered a basket of pork steamed buns, ten fried dumplings and a few fried dough sticks.
Then they watched as Li Qingzhi, who had already eaten steamed buns and rice dumplings, not only finished his noodles, but also tasted the steamed buns and fried dumplings, and finally took a fried dough stick and ate it slowly.
"Brother Li, you really can eat a lot." Zhu Xunmiao admired him very much.
Li Qingzhi said: "I just have a better appetite."
Zhu Xunmiao: “…” Even if ordinary people have a good appetite, it won’t be this good!
Li Qingzhi really likes the food in the restaurant. Not only is it delicious, but it is also high in calories.
Take fried dough sticks for example... every time you take a bite, you can feel the fat bursting in your mouth.
Feeling a little greasy after eating too much, Li Qingzhi picked up the cup and drank tea.
