Chapter 213: The poor student Zeng Jiajun also wants to play
You heard it right, Sun Shan is indeed going to take part in the county examination.
Sun Shan said to his classmates in Class A, "Well, I have studied for so long and wanted to test my knowledge. I have always wanted to take the exam. But I was afraid that the teacher would not let me take the exam. Later, I couldn't help it and asked the teacher to take the exam. The teacher thought about it for a long time and just asked me to go out. He replied to me that he agreed. He let me take the test and feel what the imperial examination is in advance."
Sun Shan certainly couldn't say that Master Zheng asked Sun Shan to take action because he was afraid that Chief Clerk Zhang would come to his door.
Only Sun Shan took the initiative and said that he wanted to take the imperial examination, which made Master Zheng feel embarrassed, but he finally agreed.
Otherwise, if Sun Shan suddenly went to take the imperial examination, it would cause unnecessary speculation.
Zheng Hongwen looked at Sun Shan in surprise and said uncertainly, "Ah Shan, you are going to take the exam at such a young age? This is too sudden."
I almost said, "I can't accept it. There has never been a student this young in Zheng's Academy."
Hong Jian was also shocked by this sudden news.
Sun Shan is short and smaller than his peers.
How could people believe him if he suddenly said he was going to take an imperial examination? Hong Jian had heard of child prodigies, but had never seen one.
Could it be that Sun Shan was the legendary genius child? But no matter how you look at it, it doesn't seem like it.
He asked doubtfully, "Ashan, are you sure you want to take the county exam?"
Sun Shan straightened his body and said confidently, "Brother Jian, I really want to take the exam. I usually rank among the best in the monthly exams, so why can't I take the exam? Although I am young, I think I have enough knowledge and I should take the exam.
If I pass, that would be the best. If I fail, I will have the experience in advance and can empathize with what the imperial examination is like, which will be of great benefit in the future."
He looked so confident that everyone wanted to put a sack on him and beat him up.
Hong Jian, Li Sheng, Zheng Hongwen and Liang Can all stared at Sun Shan with wide eyes.
Although he looked arrogant, his second sentence was right.
Since Sun Shan was promoted to Class A, he went from last to first. Gradually, he was either first or second in every monthly exam. Why couldn't he take the exam with such a good score?
Liang Shen, who was ranked last and second to last, both went to take the exam, so why didn’t Sun Shan, who was ranked first and second to last, go to take the exam?
Sun Shan was a good student and worked hard. The imperial examination did not consider age, anyone with good grades could pass.
Li Sheng's eyes sparkled, and he said admiringly, "Ashan, you are right. You are good at studying, so you can definitely give it a try. I am narrow-minded, I only saw your age, but not your academic performance. Ashan, I support you."
Zheng Hongwen also thought of what Li Sheng was thinking, and said happily: "Ashan, I support you too. If you have enough knowledge, just go on stage, no matter how old you are. Hehe, let's encourage each other."
Zheng Hongwen, who was originally very nervous, suddenly became less nervous when he heard that Sun Shan was also going to play. He didn't know why, and no one asked him why.
Hong Jian looked at Sun Shan and said firmly, "Ashan, you are right. Go and give it a try. Now that you have enough knowledge, it is time to go on stage."
Hong Jian thought that he had failed the exam twice, which was due to his lack of knowledge, not his age.
Sun Shan had the best grades in Class A. Both Scholar Hong and Scholar Huang secretly said that he had a good chance of passing the exam to become a scholar.
This time I'm taking the exam in advance, so it doesn't matter if I fail, I'll just take it as experience.
For someone like him, before going on stage, he thought he had learned well and should be able to pass.
The results of it?
It was only after I went on stage that I realized that I had not learned enough and I knew where my weaknesses were.
The same goes for Sun Shan. His grades are usually good, but whether they are really good or fake can only be known by taking him out for a walk.
Liang Shen looked at the confident Sun Shan, and then looked at his own decadent self.
A 13 year old and a 21 year old.
Suddenly I felt that I should not look down on myself and should not be inferior to the skinny 13-year-old Sun Shan.
I encouraged myself by saying, "Ashan, let's take the exam together and encourage each other!"
The news of Sun Shan's imperial examination spread quickly throughout the Hong's school, and everyone rushed over to watch the fun during lunch.
Last year, the poor student Zeng Jiajun was finally promoted from Class C to Class B. He looked at Sun Shan and said, "Ashan, are you going to take the county exam?"
Sun Shan nodded and took a mouthful of rice.
I studied hard and used my brain frequently, and I became very hungry, so I ate more and more.
Sun Bomin and Su paid more money and raised the quality of the food, so Sun Shan is now very happy to eat.
The poor student Zeng Jiajun nodded and said, "Ashan, you are still on the court at such a young age, what do you think of me playing too?"
He looked at Sun Shan very eagerly, wanting to get his affirmation.
Sun Shan was also very supportive. With his eyes wide open, he said affirmatively, "Ajun, if you want to go, go ahead. Go ask the Master. I wanted to take the imperial examination, so I also asked the Master. The Master finally agreed to let me go. If you want to go, go ahead and ask. The Master is very easy to talk to."
Zeng Jiajun's eyes sparkled and he said with a smile, "Ashan, you are right. I will go ask the teacher this afternoon."
Sun Shan had a smile on his face, and an even happier smile in his heart.
Needless to say, if the poor student Zeng Jiajun really went to ask the teacher in the afternoon, he would definitely receive countless critical strikes.
Hehe, the bad students are confident. If they think the top students can do it, then they can do it too!
The other students looked at Zeng Jiajun speechlessly. Who gave him the courage to think he could play?
Then some students thought, even the poor student Zeng Jiajun has the courage to go on stage, I am not a poor student, why can’t I go on stage?
Unexpectedly, several students from Class B actually went to ask Hong Xiucai if they could play.
The final result is easy to guess. The students who went to ask were scolded by Mr. Hong and had to do double the homework.
If you can't complete the homework, you will be punished directly.
The news that Sun Shan was going to take the stage caused a stir in the school for three days, and then everyone went about their business.
There are roads and diligence in the mountain of books, and there is no end to learn to work hard.
Studying requires diligence and hard work. Other people's business is theirs, so you should do your own thing well.
Because he had to go on stage suddenly, Sun Shan asked for a leave and went to the "Jinbangtiming" bookstore to ask his second brother-in-law Zheng Hongyuan to escort him back to Sunjia Village.
Sun Shan didn't dare go back alone as the mountain road was rugged, remote and desolate.
I'm not afraid of the monsters in the mountains, but I'm most afraid of encountering wild beasts and getting physically hurt.
Sun Shan believed that being careful in making the universal boat, preserving his body was the greatest victory.
After Lixia married Zheng Tongsheng, she moved to the county town with Zheng Hongyuan.
She herself wanted to live in Zhengjia Village, which was close to her mother's home and she could get there just around the corner if anything happened.
But Zheng Hongyuan worked in the county town, so she had to move to the county town, and she had to follow her husband.
At this time, with a big belly, he ordered: "Brother Hongyuan, you have to take good care of Shanzi and be careful on the road."
Lixia couldn't understand why her younger brother suddenly wanted to take the imperial examination. But her younger brother always had his own ideas, so he must have his reasons for doing so.
It doesn’t matter if Lixia doesn’t understand, just support her.
Zheng Hongyuan said nervously, "I know. Be careful at home. Don't run around when you're pregnant."
Seeing his wife walking out of the door with difficulty with her big belly, Zheng Hongyuan quickly stopped her.
Sun Shan said with concern: "Second sister, don't come out. My second brother-in-law and I will go back. Everything will be fine."
Lixia and Zheng Hongyuan have been married for more than two years and now she is finally pregnant. Both the Zheng family and the Sun family breathed a sigh of relief.
