The Transmigrated Li Jin’s Daily Farming Life

Chapter 67: The first time I took such a bath, the temperature of the hot water was too high, and the fatigue of the whole body was taken away.

After he took a bath, he asked the master for two basins of water to wash his hair. After washing, put it on and go straight upstairs.

Chen Xiran just came out of the shower. Looking at Li Jin's appearance, he joked, "If you have a cinnabar mole on your face, you will look better than those brothers."

Li Jin thought about it for a while, and answered solemnly, "My wife is the best looking."

Chen Xiran was silent, feeling that he was being crushed by all aspects.

Indeed, Li Jin's husband is good-looking and good-looking, even if he is standing next to a person as outstanding as Li Jin, he will not lose his style.

He angrily said: "I have decided, I will quickly pass the exam, marry a daughter-in-law, have a son, your cub will marry into my house sooner or later!"

This time it was Li Jin's turn to have nothing to say. He couldn't silently curse Chen Xiran for not being hit, right

Forget it, let's hope that Chen Xiran's first child will not be born within three years.

In ancient times, there was a saying that 'the female junior holds the golden brick', but if the wife or husband is too much older than the man, it will be dismissed and criticized by many people.

It's not that Li Jin doesn't want Baozi to marry into Chen Xiran's family, but that he feels that marriage is his own business, and he may not necessarily be happy in the future by directly setting up an arranged marriage for his children.

The matter of getting married should wait until the buns grow up.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Jin habitually got up early. After washing up, he was silent for half an hour, before there was movement from Chen Xiran.

Then a few people went downstairs to eat together, and the breakfast was ordinary porridge with pickles.

The driver of the car went to feed the cows, and Li Jin and Chen Xiran packed up all kinds of documents and prepared to go to the county office to get the registration form.

When the two went to the county office, they had to pass through the inner city guards, because they came from a village within a hundred miles of the county seat, so they could avoid the road guide.

Just register your name and place of origin.

Looking at their appearance, the guard knew that they were students who had come to sign up for the Tongsheng exam, so he let them in without any difficulty.

When Li Jin and Chen Xiran arrived, there was already a long queue in front of the county office.

Li Jin estimated that there were at least thirty or forty people in front of them, and none of them were familiar faces.

It suddenly occurred to him that there was a sentence in the literature he had read in his previous life, "Thousands and hundreds of children are gathered, and a dozen people are recruited as students", and students are scholars.

You can only be considered a child if you pass the county exam. This sentence means that out of a thousand children, there are only ten children.

This chance is simply too low.

They came early, the door of the ceremony room had not yet opened, and only the yamen stood solemnly around.

Although no one was there to maintain order, everyone kept silent as soon as they got here, and followed the last person in line, no one cut the line, and didn't even dare to make a loud noise.

When the time came, the door of the ceremony room opened, and the students present came forward one by one to present their resumes, mutual knots, and affidavits.

The resume is age, place of origin, etc., and it is stipulated that candidates cannot register within 27 months of their parents' bereavement. Mutual ties and ties refer to the mutual insurance of the five candidates, and the guarantors of the scholars and the villagers.

Signing up is a delicate task. Although there are only thirty people in front of Li Jin, more than an hour has passed by the time it is his turn.

He presented the paperwork he had prepared, while filling in the application list.

Li Jin's words now have brought their own style in neatness, and the adults who checked the documents over there couldn't help but take a second glance.

After Li Jin submitted it, he waited for Chen Xiran outside.

Chen Xiran didn't speak in the morning. He pulled Li Jin and started talking nonstop: "This is too serious. In the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, I actually stood for more than an hour without stomping my feet. When I was able to lift my feet and walk, I was almost unconscious."

Li Jin also felt that the soles of his shoes were ice balls, and coldness rushed up from the soles of his feet.

"Let's go get some hot soup, and then I want to go to the bookstore."

After finally making a trip to the county town, of course, I can't go back so quickly. Li Jin intends to find some books to read to help him understand this era.

In addition, the county examination is presided over by the county magistrate, and there are many students in the bookstore. If you can find out a little bit of the magistrate's preferences, it may be helpful for the examination.

After all, Mr. Song also said that the county test is usually four or five, and it depends on the arrangement of the county magistrate.

If there are five exams, the last exam will most likely be the county magistrate's own questions to screen candidates.

Chen Xiran had no plans, but he also decided to follow Li Jin, and he would tell him any news from Li Jin anyway.

It can't be said that he relies too much on Li Jin, mainly because Chen Xiran only likes gossip and doesn't like content related to books.

Personality dictates.

Li Jin first shared his thoughts with Chen Xiran.

"You go to the largest teahouse in the county, and someone around you says that the magistrate likes it, so just keep it in mind and don't take the initiative to ask questions."

Chen Xiran agreed: "Okay."

Li Jin continued, "I'll go to the bookstore to inquire, and in the afternoon we'll go back to the inn to summarize."

Li Jin asked someone to inquire about the location of the bookstore, brushed off his robes, and walked towards the bookstore.

Here, Li Jin found that there were five bookshelves in the imperial examinations, three bookshelves such as "Four Books" and "Five Classics", and the other two bookshelves were all about arithmetic!

There were students from outside asking, and the shopkeeper smiled and said, "Your Majesty has promoted arithmetic, astronomical calculations, manufacturing by the Ministry of Industry, the tax system of the Ministry of Accounts, etc..."

The author has something to say:

The dates here are all in the lunar calendar. So January is the New Year.

[Gangping: It is one of the "five punishments" in ancient times. It is a light punishment of beating a prisoner's back, buttocks or legs with bamboo and wooden boards. It is designed for petty crimes.]
