Chapter 443 Dragon and Tiger List
When Sun Shan returned to Hejia Village, he saw Li Xinyun and others sleeping like dead pigs. They looked no better than himself.
Yes, in a place like the Gongyuan that was a torture place, if a healthy person went in, he would definitely become a "disabled person" when he came out.
Sun Bomin brought over a bowl of black medicine and said distressedly, "Shanzi, drink the medicine quickly. It will be effective only if you drink it while it's hot. And have a good sleep after you finish it."
Seeing Sun Shan's appearance, Sun Bomin felt distressed. The provincial examination was more torturous than the imperial examination. Every candidate who entered the examination came out devastated.
When Sun Boming was waiting for Sun Shan at the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall, the examinees who came out one after another all had pale and blue faces. Some of them had to pay to be carried out, and they suffered a lot in there.
Sun Shan really didn't want to take the medicine. He had just finished taking a shower and didn't even care whether his hair was dry or not. He just lay down on the bed and took a nap.
Sun Bomin said quickly, "Shanzi, drink it quickly. Your aunt spent a lot of effort to make this medicine. Every time Jin Ge'er comes out, he drinks a bowl of it. Your classmates also drank it, and it worked."
Sun Shan had no choice but to swallow it down in one gulp.
This time the medicine was even more bitter and difficult to drink than the one used in the provincial examination. After Sun Shan drank it, he felt very nauseous. Finally, he ate a large piece of tangerine peel to suppress the bitterness.
When Sun Bomin saw Sun Shan finish drinking, he said happily, "Shanzi, go to sleep quickly. When you wake up, everything will be fine."
Sun Shan hummed, fell asleep, and fell asleep in less than 5 seconds.
It was already the next day when I woke up, and my stomach was rumbling. If I wasn’t so hungry, I would probably have continued to sleep.
When he opened his eyes, he saw his good servant Guiger.
Gui Ge'er shouted in surprise: "Brother Shan, are you awake? Are you hungry? I'll go out and bring you food."
After saying that, he put down the palm-leaf fan and ran out.
After waiting for a while, Sun Boming, He Shuqiang, and Li Xinyun and others who were staying in Sun Dagu's house came in.
Sun Shan rubbed his eyes, looked at his classmates, and found that they were in good spirits.
Li Xinyun smiled and said, "Ashan, are you okay? You've been sleeping for a long time, a whole day and a night. If you don't wake up, call the doctor."
Liu Wenhuan echoed, "Ashan, I didn't expect you to be able to sleep so well."
Jiang Qian next to him smiled and said, "Ashan, you've suffered. I didn't expect you to be so unlucky to draw a bad number again."
Sun Shan looked at them speechlessly. He was already upset about getting a bad number, and now he was making it public.
Hong Jian was much more humane than the other three. He said with concern, "Ashan, get up and eat something first. You must be starving. You didn't eat well in the Imperial Examination Hall. You must eat well after you come out to make up for it."
Gui Ge'er quickly brought in the food. Sun Boming and He Shuqiang took it and asked Sun Shan to eat quickly.
A bunch of people were watching him eat, and Sun Shan couldn't accept it, so he quickly said, "Everyone, wait until I finish my meal."
The meaning is to ask them to go out and not delay Sun Shan's meal.
Li Xinyun said cheerfully, "Okay, take your time to eat. You look so pitiful, you were skinny to begin with, and you've become even thinner since you came out."
Speaking of the issue of losing weight, He Shuqiang, the only student on the scene, had a lot of experience and quickly said, "I lost 10 kilograms in three days after entering the venue. If Shan Ge enters the venue, won't he have to lose 30 kilograms?"
Then he asked Li Xinyun and others if they had lost weight.
A few people came out after playing and fighting, leaving Sun Shan in the house to eat.
Sun Bomin asked with concern: "Shanzi, how do you feel? Are you feeling unwell? I'll ask the doctor to come and take a look later. Oh, you're unlucky. You got a bad number."
At first, He Shuqiang guessed that Sun Shan had drawn a bad number. Later, the servant of Chaozhou man Xie Ziyu came over and revealed that Sun Shan had drawn a bad number.
Everyone finally understood why Sun Shan smelled so bad.
After Sun Shan finished eating the fish porridge, he felt much better. He nodded and said, "Dad, I'm fine. I don't need to see a doctor."
Then he asked again: "Brother Xie, are you looking for me?"
He came to me so soon? Wasn't he tired and didn't he rest?
Gui went to serve Sun Shan another bowl of porridge and said, "Xie Xiucai's servant came to bring you a message. He asked you to meet him tomorrow, but since you have been sleeping, he said he would meet you again when you are well."
Sun Shan was speechless. He didn't expect that the Chaozhou guy was in such good health and recovered so quickly?
In less than two days, you're full of energy and ready to go out and play with others?
Sun Shan didn't think he was that good to him, did he? He was just being polite in the Imperial Examination Hall.
Could it be that his charm is everywhere, fascinating everyone around him and making them want to play with him?
Sun Shan felt that he had discovered the truth!
Sun Bomin shook his head and said, "Shanzi, you should take a good rest for a few days before going out to play. Don't be in a hurry. There is still a long time before the results are announced."
The provincial examination began on August 25th and officially ended on September 4th.
The results will be announced on September 19th, and you will need to wait for half a month.
Because Yin is associated with the tiger and Chen is associated with the dragon, there is an unwritten rule in every province that most people choose Yin and Chen as their day branches. Therefore, the announcement of the provincial examination results is also known as the "Dragon and Tiger List".
Because September happens to be autumn, the time when osmanthus flowers are in full bloom, it is also called the "Osmanthus List".
Most candidates, especially those who travel long distances, will choose to stay and go home after the results are announced.
This period is even more lively than the period before the provincial examination.
Candidates will gather together to hold activities such as garden parties and poetry readings.
Sun Bomin and Sun Shan both planned to wait until the results of the provincial examination were announced before going home to avoid the fatigue of walking back and forth.
Sun Shan nodded and agreed, "Father, I understand. I will have a good rest these two days. Haha, Father, to be honest, although I stayed in the stinking cell longer this time, it was much better than the college entrance examination. I didn't get a heat stroke this time, and my brain is very flexible. My body is also stronger than before."
Sun Bomin was overjoyed when he heard this, and said with great satisfaction: "Good, it's good to be in good health. Father saw that you are in better condition this time than before, not bad."
Gui Ge'er said with a silly smile: "Uncle Min, Shan Ge had to be carried by Uncle Dali when he went to Yuelu Academy to study, but now he can walk back by himself. Shan Ge is getting stronger and stronger."
Sun Bomin was even happier when he heard this. He felt more at ease knowing that the child was in good health.
A good body means being free from illness and pain, and being able to live to 99.
Sun Shan looked at Gui Ge'er and Sun Boming laughing happily, shook his head, and then laughed too.
He didn't know why he was laughing.
After eating, I felt alive again.
Sun Shan got dressed and went out to play with his classmates, wanting to ask them what they were going to do in the next few days.
Li Xinjun said with a smile: "What else can I do? I will definitely have a good time in Guangzhou while waiting for the results to be announced."
Hong Jian echoed, "This is my first time in Guangzhou Prefecture. I must make good use of this time to have some fun."
Hong Jian's family was the worst off, but fortunately, God helped diligent scholars, and Hong Jian finally passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, and the situation at home gradually improved.
This was his first time to take part in the provincial examination and also his first time to come to Guangzhou Prefecture.
Liu Wenhuan smiled and said, "I heard that there are many scholars gathering at the Imperial Examination Hall. They will make plans to play together and hold activities. Haha, I also want to go and see it."
Jiang Qian quickly said, "It was like this three years ago. I wonder if it will be like this now?"
He turned around and asked Sun Shan: "Ashan, what about you?"
After Sun Shan finished his exams, he was in a very good mood and had time to participate in the so-called activities of scholars.
He nodded and said, "Okay, let's go play together. Haha, when it comes to playing, Qian Yingyang is the best. He is the best at playing."
After hearing this, everyone looked at each other and laughed happily.
Sun Shan and others chatted for a long time, but they all avoided the topic of the provincial examination and did not want to discuss it.
Perhaps the half month before the announcement of the results is the most carefree time for them, so they want to do pleasant things and talk about pleasant things.
