Chapter 360: Let Uncle 3 have a chance to attend the Jinshi Banquet
Sun Shan and Hong Xiucai chatted for a long time and they still felt like they hadn't had enough.
When he walked out of the study, it was already dark. After having dinner at Hong's house, Sun Shan returned to Sun's house.
Sun Shan had not yet told Sun Boming and Su about his upcoming visit to Yuelu Academy.
Aunt Sun and Uncle He were probably too busy and forgot to mention this matter.
Sun Shan thought about waiting until he got back to Sunjia Village.
He planned to go to Zhangzhou Prefecture from Huangyang County, ask for a long vacation from the prefectural school, and then go directly to Huguang Province from Zhangzhou Prefecture.
Zhangzhou Prefecture is the only way to go north, and you can save time by starting from Zhangzhou Prefecture.
At dawn the next day, the village chief and Sun Boming had already packed their luggage. They were eager to return to Sunjia Village in the dark.
This trip took a full fifteen days, and the village chief and Sun Boming were worried about the fields at home. Farmers deeply love the land.
At noon, I finally returned to Sunjia Village which I had not seen for a long time. As soon as I stepped into the village entrance, the first person I saw was not Aunt Li, but Uncle Sun.
Sun Shan was stunned. His uncle was wandering around the village entrance. Where did he want to go?
Uncle Sun didn’t know how long he had been wandering around. When he looked up, he saw members of the Sun family carrying large and small bags and running towards him excitedly.
He was not running towards the village chief, nor towards Sun Boming, but was running straight towards Sun Shan.
Sun Shan was caught off guard and was hugged by Uncle Sun.
Sun was stunned. What on earth was Uncle Sun doing? When did he become so close to him?
If anyone wants to hug him, he should go to his brother Sun Boming, or Second Uncle Sun.
Uncle Sun's eyes were hazy, as if they were wet with tears, and he looked extremely aggrieved.
He hugged Sun Shan and shouted, "Shanzi, Shanzi, you are finally back. I have been waiting for you for a long time."
Sun Shan wanted to shake off Uncle Sun, but he was no match for him in size or strength, so he had no way of breaking free and it was better to give up.
He asked doubtfully, "Uncle San, how are you? I haven't seen you for a long time."
Sun Shan didn't know what to say to Uncle Sun San, so he could only say some useless nonsense.
Uncle Sun said with red eyes: "Shanzi, my Shanzi, you are finally back."
For a moment, Sun Shan thought that Uncle Sun was the reincarnation of Huang, because the words he said were exactly the same as Huang.
Besides, he and Uncle Sun had never reached that level, so he really couldn't understand Uncle Sun's excitement.
Sun Shan was just thinking about why Uncle Sun was like this for nine days and nine nights when Uncle Sun gave him the answer.
Uncle Sun said aggrievedly: "Shanzi, my Shanzi. I can't rely on anyone in the family. From now on, I can only rely on you.
Shanzi, Shanzi, you must study hard for your uncle and pass the imperial examinations to become a juren and a jinshi.
Third uncle is in a bitter mood, he really wants to have a Jinshi banquet. You are the only one in the family who can fulfill Third uncle's wish.
Shanzi, you must strive to be better. Our Sun family depends on you, and so does Third Uncle. "
Uncle Sun was very emotional, his eyes were red, but luckily he knew that men don't shed tears easily, so he didn't shed tears of sadness.
Uncle Sun choked up and said, "Shanzi, they all bullied Uncle San and didn't allow me to attend the He family's Jinshi banquet.
Uncle San felt very sad. He really wanted to see what the Jinshi banquet was like.
It all depends on you from now on. You must pass the imperial examination and give your uncle the opportunity to attend the Jinshi banquet.
Shanzi, my uncle's greatest wish in life is to see you pass the imperial examination.
Your surname is Sun, and your third uncle's surname is also Sun. No one dares to stop your third uncle from attending your Jinshi banquet.
Shanzi, you must strive to be better, understand? Don't be inferior to others and let others look down on you. Shanzi, Third Uncle's lifelong hope is all on you. "
Uncle Sun San spoke like he was rapping, glancing at Sun Shan, the village chief, Sun Boming, and Uncle Sun Er who were trying to stop him from attending the Jinshi banquet.
Even Su Shi and Ming Ge'er's two children, Douzai and Meizhu, were also looked at. Needless to say, Gui Ge'er was snorted at by him.
Among so many people who came back from the banquet, only Sun Shan avoided being hated by Uncle Sun.
The village chief was so angry that black smoke came out of his head. He was a fool if he couldn't hear Uncle Sun's indirect criticism.
It was obvious that she resented him and tried to stop him from going to the He family.
The village chief pulled away Uncle Sun San who was lying on Sun Shan and said coldly, "Uncle Wen, you have time to hang around at the entrance of the village. Have you finished your work in the fields?"
Uncle Sun really wanted to tell you guys to go to the city to enjoy yourself, but he was asked to work in the fields, which was impossible.
These days, Uncle Sun eats and then sleeps, and then eats after sleeping.
If he could go to the big banyan tree to gossip at other times, the gossiping women in the village would always ask him why he didn't go with Luo Fucheng to drink?
Don't like it?
This made Uncle Sun so angry that he changed his position and decided to stroll around the village entrance to see when the people attending the banquet would come back.
Uncle Sun did not dare to complain when he saw the village chief's ferocious eyes and the fierce look in his eyes.
Pretend that what he just said was not what he said.
He said to Sun Shan, "Shanzi, come here, let your uncle carry your bag for you. Oh, it must be a pain for a little kid to carry such heavy luggage."
Without saying a word, he put Sun Shan's light package on his back and rushed straight to the village.
Sun Shan looked at Uncle Sun's back helplessly. Fortunately, the package only contained a few pieces of clothes, and his most precious letter of recommendation was hidden close to his body, so he felt relieved.
The group passed by the big banyan tree at the Bagua Distribution Center, and the atmosphere instantly became heated.
Uncle Sun had already been chatting with his fellow villagers under the big banyan tree when he saw the village chief and his entourage.
He shouted loudly and vainly, "Look, the village chief and my elder and second brothers are back. Oh, we don't want to stay in the city too often. Our eldest nephew is determined to become a high-ranking official by passing the imperial examinations. Oh, we have to go to his wedding."
Aunt Li stood up quickly and rushed to Sun Shan and asked, "Mr. Sun, Mr. Sun, Shanzi, the boy from Bomin's family, can you tell Grandma Li if Chunlan's son has become an official?"
He looked at Sun Shan with sharp eyes and curious gaze.
Aunt Li thought it would be best to ask someone who knows the most.
The eldest cousin said he was an official, but he was not an official. He didn't know how to explain it. Moreover, even if Sun Shan explained it, the villagers would not understand.
At this time, the only answer is yes or no.
Of course Sun Shan answered yes, nodded and said, "Yes, my cousin is an official now.
It’s better not to say “big”, and be rigorous in what you do and do.
Aunt Li's eyes sparkled, and she asked excitedly, "Who is older, Brother Jin or the county magistrate?"
He looked at Sun Shan earnestly, hoping that he could give him an answer.
Sun Shan didn't know what to say for a long time.
Generally speaking, my cousin must have a brighter future than the county magistrate. I think so, but I can't say it literally.
This time, not only Aunt Li was anxious, but the villagers in Sunjia Village were also very eager to know the answer.
Even the village chief joined in and asked, "Shanzi, tell me, who has a higher rank, Jin Ge'er or the county magistrate?"
The village chief didn't understand what kind of official He Shujin held, he only knew that he went to the capital to be an official.
When he heard about the capital, he felt that Jing'er had held a very high position.
But they also felt that the county magistrate was a very high-ranking official and they were under his jurisdiction.
Sun Shan was in a dilemma. He really didn't know how to explain, and he didn't intend to explain. Everyone just wanted him to answer yes or no.
Sun Shan said helplessly: "They are the same size. They just serve in different places."
Later, somehow, the rumor spread that Sun Jia Chunlan's eldest son went to the capital to serve as a county magistrate.
