The Transmigrated Li Jin’s Daily Farming Life

Chapter 117

Views:

After the crowning ceremony, everyone who is familiar with Li Jin will call him 'Xiuzhi'.

Even if you are not familiar with him, after listening to others introduce him, he will be called by his surname, Li Mingjin, and the character is Xiuzhi.

Li Jin knew, because in this era, after a man is crowned, he can be regarded as a man who can really be the master of the house. According to the rules, except for father and brother, no one else is qualified to call him by his first name.

But the rules are the rules, and it is common to call others by their names when they are very close.

For example, Chen Xiran asked Li Jin to call him 'Xiran' even if he took the character after he passed the exam. He also called Li Jin 'Xiuzhi' under normal circumstances, and occasionally called him 'A Jin' when he wanted to see Xiaobaozi.

About Master Hui's life, Li Jin later made a special trip to ask Wan Yun.

Seeing Li Jin's serious questioning, Wan Yun laughed and said, "This is the first time I've seen you interested in this kind of question. However, Master Li Hui made a special trip to inscribe you. You want to know more about him, and it should be."

But even if Wan Yun, what they say is nothing more than rumors.

He pointed the way to Li Jin: "You can go to Pang Lao, he has contact with Master Hui, and he should be able to get the answer you want."

Li Jin frowned rarely and said, "Teacher, I'm really not sure about Old Pang's mind."

Mr. Pang came to participate in his crowning ceremony yesterday, and Li Jin was not without excitement, but at noon today, he came to the door in person with a thank-you gift, and still ate behind closed doors.

Wan Yun was silent, but he just told Li Jin to find Lao Pang.

He could only bite the bullet and say, "Think about it, what if this is Old Pang's test for you? You must persevere."

Li Jin didn't say anything else and continued to read silently.

Since he got the results of the academy examination, he first went back to the village to live for a few days, and then changed his study method and decided to read more books to expand his knowledge.

But this expansion, Li Jin is not blindly reading any book, the center still revolves around the content of the rural exam.

The township test is divided into three sessions, the first session is for classics and meanings, the second session is for application of official documents, and the third session is for time policy.

Jingyi is the most important one. There are seven topics in total, including three topics in four books and four topics in Five Classics. [Note]

Therefore, the most basic is the "Four Books" and "Five Classics", but the test for students is not as simple as before.

The teaching of Class A said in the first class that the township examination pays more attention to combining the actual situation of the current dynasty with the thoughts of saints based on their existing knowledge.

Li Jin has also learned about some widely circulated exam questions, such as 'Gong Sui governing the Bohai Sea, Yu Xu governing the Song Dynasty'. It was recommended that Gong Sui go to manage things.

At this time, some people can even spread the scriptures to the emperor to appoint people on their merits. Of course, this is pure flattery.

For this reason, Li Jin bought a set of essays on local customs. He thought that only when he knew enough about the local situation could he start with how to deal with it and write articles with real content.

In fact, in this case, the combination of reading thousands of books and traveling thousands of miles is the best way.

Li Jin intends to learn enough theoretical knowledge first, and then have the opportunity to go out for a walk and see it.

In the afternoon, Li Jin re-read the book that he had copied and silenced dozens of times. This time, he did not read the annotations added by anyone, but tasted the meaning word by word.

Li Jin went to the bookshelf to find the classics he had quoted, so that he could understand and understand.

In addition, based on the governance methods of our ancestors, we can connect with current policies and come up with strategies that are useful for current evidence.

When it was time to go back, Li Jin found that he had memorized a lot of paper, but the content on it was very scattered, and most of it was written by him.

Wan Jiaoyu was just about to go to Li Jin's house for a meal, and when he saw Li Jin sitting by the window and writing hard, his brows were still furrowed.

He thought that Li Jin was still thinking about how to impress Lao Pang and wanted to come forward to comfort him.

But standing behind Li Jin, Wan Jiaoyu couldn't help but let out a light breath.

Although Li Jin's strategy theory is not very advanced, as long as he sums up all these ideas, it can be regarded as an excellent article!

Wan Jiaoyu thought that not long after Li Jin finished the academy exam, he had completely changed the way of answering.

But Li Jin is not like many people, who only sing praises for the high-ranking people. His focus is all on how to effectively prevent and manage disasters.

Such a person is born to be a doer, suitable for taking the imperial examinations, and more suitable for being an official.

Li Jin didn't know what Wan Yun was thinking. He sorted out the papers and planned to go back and sort them out carefully. After getting up, he found Wan Jiaoyu standing behind him.

Li Jin: "... go to dinner?"

Wan Yun touched his nose awkwardly and said, "Okay."

In Li Jin's house, Chen Xiran took Mr. Song to visit Yitianfu City, and by the way, he also bought a bunch of gadgets for Baozi.

When it was about dinner time, Chen Xiran and Mr. Song were sitting in the outer courtyard drinking tea.

"Xiuzhi has changed a lot now." Mr. Song thought about it all night, but couldn't help but say it, "Back then, he didn't even have a book basket, and he went back and forth with a bamboo basket for lectures all day, and the box also contained his meals. "

Even the meals are potatoes, dry biscuits and the like.

Chen Xiran was happy for Li Jin in his heart: "Yes, he has passed the double-case examination, and he is qualified to buy a house in Fucheng. Now he lives here with his family, and there are maids to serve him."

While the two were talking, Li Jin opened the door for Wan Yun and invited him in.

When Li Jin was crowned yesterday, Mr. Song took the opportunity to toast Wan Yun. Wan Yun knew that this person was Li Jin's enlightenment teacher, and he was very polite to him, and even agreed to visit him the next day.

Of course, it is likely that it is mainly just for rubbing food.

But this also made Mr. Song extremely excited. On the first day of April, Li Jin put him and Chen Xiran on the ferry early in the morning, while he stepped up to the academy.

Wan Yun was sent away last night, Chen Xiran and Mr. Song also rested in the outer courtyard, Li Jin and Qin Muwen quietly tried to make... Jiang Shilang tofu.

Mainly Qin Muwen is doing it, and Li Jin is studying. After finishing it, Li Jin also tried to do it himself.

Therefore, there were two more plates of tofu for breakfast the next day.

After practicing like this for a few days, the taste of Li Jin's recipe is not much different.

On the eighth day of April, when Li Jin was not on duty, he brought the prepared ingredients and gave the public chef ten cents to borrow a stove.

There are many stoves in the kitchen room. The cook saw that Li Jin gave the money and brought the ingredients by himself, so he made it right away.

At noon that day, Li Jin took Jiang Shilang's tofu that he made, and knocked gently on the door of Lao Pang's courtyard.

The old man raised his eyebrows. Li Jin usually came to him after dinner. Why did he come to disturb him today before anyone could eat

With that in mind, he opened the door first.

"You are so ignorant of etiquette... Jiang Shilang tofu?"

Li Jin nodded, "Wansheng heard that Mr. often lived in Yuhang when he was young, and the food there was sweet and bland, so he learned this dish and made a special trip for him today."

He never mentioned the matter of the crowning ceremony, because Li Jin already felt that the old man was not as cold as the rumors, he was just... arrogant and awkward.

With a look of nostalgia on his face, Pang Lao took the initiative to give up his seat to Li Jin: "Come in."

Li Jin was surprised: "Sir?" Didn't he just take the food away

"I've cooked too much here, and with your dish, how can I finish it? You can't eat more than a pair of chopsticks."

After Li Jin went in, he found that Mr. Chen Yiding was also there, and the man said directly: "You have to listen to Mr. Pang's words, what he wants to say is that if you go back to the public kitchen now, you will have no food for a long time, why don't you stay with me? Eat together."

"Thank you both gentlemen."

Chen Yiding knew enough about Lao Pang, and seeing that he already had the intention of accepting apprentices, he left immediately after eating, lest he stay here and Pang Lao would be embarrassed.

After Lao Pang finished eating, he waited for Li Jin to serve tea to his teacher, and then his stones came in handy.

Li Jin, as Mr. Pang imagined, served tea obediently, but his next sentence was: "Wan Sheng heard that Mr. Hui had a relationship with Master Hui, dare to ask Mr. Do you know why Master Hui wrote Wan Sheng's inscription?"

Pang Lao: "?"

Old Pang took a sip of tea into his mouth and almost choked to death because of Li Jin's words.

He coughed for a long time before he said, "He's so eloquent, and the inscription may be that he got up by accident. When I was young, he was just an ordinary monk who told people fortune-telling. But at that time everyone was poor. Ah, no one wants to split the rations.

I was practicing kung fu in the mountains and beat a rabbit. Seeing that he was pitiful, I shared it with him. He insisted on telling my fortune, saying that I would become a calligrapher in the future. "

It's amazing to say, this monk clearly didn't know that he was practicing calligraphy, but he just figured it out.

Mr. Pang continued: "However, who can count the fate of a lifetime? Even if my wife and children are full, I am still alone in fifty or sixty. Therefore, his fortune-telling is always good and sometimes not good. , or else he wouldn't run out every day at his age, for fear that the emperor would see him and drag him to count the fate of the country. Poor old man."

Li Jin: "..." Said the legendary master

Pang Lao said: "I'm telling you this because of your apprenticeship. By the way, you are not allowed to say anything about that old monk who likes to eat meat..."

wait, apprentice

Bye

Li Jin reacted quickly, poured another cup of tea, and knelt down to offer tea to his teacher.

Old Pang gritted his teeth: "Don't tell me what happened today, I'm your master!"

Li Jin lowered his head and hid his smile in his eyes: "Students obey."

He originally wanted to be a teacher, but if Pang Lao refused, he would not force it. After all, this kind of thing is about your love and my wishes.

At this time, if he doesn't learn to be a teacher again, he's a big fool.

After Li Jin came home, the little bun broke free from his father's arms, stepped on the ground with his short legs, and walked towards him.

Li Jin gave Xiaocha the book basket, squatted down by himself, and picked up the small buns on the spot.

Originally thought that the little bun would give Daddy a kiss, and then hugged his neck softly and acted like a spoiled child.

As a result, when the little bun was one meter away from Li Jin, he wrinkled his nose: "Daddy, stinky."

Then Li Jin watched his little cub run back to the big cub's arms.

Li Jin stood up, only to find that he smelled of ink all over his body.

It's just that the smell of ink is too strong, so it's a bit rushed.

But it didn't stink, it was the kind of ink with a slight aroma. After he became a teacher today, he was left by Mr. Pang to practice calligraphy by the pool, and he practiced for an entire afternoon before letting him go.

The little bun rubbed in Dad's arms and said, "Daddy, take a shower."
