Chapter 490 Let the Father-in-law 996 or 007

When Su heard Sun Shan say that the chances of passing the high school entrance exam were slim and that he was just trying his luck this time, he couldn't help but feel disappointed.

But no matter how disappointed I was, passing the imperial examination was already a great blessing for the Sun family, so I couldn't ask for too much.

My father-in-law has only been in the underworld for a dozen or twenty years, so he may not be able to practice.

I heard that to become an immortal, one must have powerful skills and practice for at least hundreds or even thousands of years.

Su thought that her father-in-law had tried his best to bless Shanzi, but perhaps he did not have the ability to help him pass the imperial examination and become a Jinshi.

Su secretly felt sorry that her father-in-law's skills were not good enough, and thought about going to Wild Boar Hill with Sun Boming to pay homage tomorrow.

Let my father-in-law work 996 or 007, and practice day and night, so that he can bless Shanzi to go to high school.

Su said comfortingly: "Shanzi, now that you know your situation, just try your best to take the exam. It doesn't matter if you fail. Go to the capital and see the world."

After a pause, he instructed, "By the way, after you finish your exams in the capital, play for a few days and come back quickly, because you have to get married."

Su became happy again when she thought that Shanzi was about to get married and have children.

He said cheerfully, "Shanzi, go to bed quickly, don't think too much. By the way, when you get to the capital and see your eldest cousin, you must ask him how he passed the imperial examination and ask him for the secret. Also, when you get to the capital, you must know etiquette. The eldest grandfather of the He family is also in the capital. When you get there, you must visit him. We will become in-laws soon, so we must know etiquette."

Su kept giving orders, talking until his mouth was dry. Only after getting Sun Shan's guarantee did he leave with satisfaction.

The purpose of Su's coming tonight is to determine Sun Shan's chance of passing the imperial examination. Since there is no chance, it is not good to brag to others. He should be more humble in the future and not over-boast.

If people in the surrounding area knew that Shanzi had not yet reached high school, he would be very embarrassed. He should be more careful with his words in the future.

After Su left, Uncle Sun went to find Sun Shan quietly.

Sun Shan had just finished washing up and wanted to go to bed, cover himself with a quilt and take a nap.

He looked at Uncle Sun in confusion and asked, "Uncle Sun, what do you want me to do?"

Could it be that Uncle Sun was planning to give him some silver? Sun Shan felt that he had discovered the truth.

So he looked at Uncle Sun excitedly and looked at his hands eagerly, hoping to take out several silver ingots. Of course, Sun Shan didn't mind gold ingots either.

Uncle Sun did not take out the silver ingot from his pocket, but asked in a low voice: "Shanzi, tell me honestly, do you have confidence in taking the exam in Beijing this time? Can you pass it?"

Uncle Sun stared at Sun Shan closely without blinking, afraid that he would miss Sun Shan's expression if he blinked.

Uncle Sun stared at Sun Shan with his eyes piercing, determined to get Sun Shan to tell the truth.

Sun Shan did as his uncle wished, and said sincerely, "Uncle, I have to be honest with you. I really don't have confidence. I have tried my best to pass the imperial examination. I am afraid it will be difficult for me to pass the imperial examination."

After saying this, he sighed. It was a genuine sigh, not an act.

Uncle Sun was stunned for a moment, then said, "Shanzi, since you can't pass the exam, why are you in such a hurry to go to Beijing to take the exam? We can go there next time. It's not cheap to go to Beijing. Our Sun family is not a wealthy family, so we won't waste money if we can."

Uncle Sun thought that if Shanzi didn't go to take the exam, it would be okay to go again in three years.

There are many opportunities for young people under 20 years old, so there is no need to rush.

Sun Shan said confidently, "Uncle San, although I have no chance of making the list with my ability, I think I'm lucky. You see, I was ranked last in the exam for the scholar, and I was ranked last in the exam for the juren. What if I'm ranked last in the exam for the jinshi as well? Uncle San, don't you think I'm lucky? Luck is something that needs to be worked on in one go. I'm afraid I won't be so lucky in three years. Don't you agree?"

Uncle Sun really wanted to say no, but after thinking about it, it was true.

Shanzi always finished last and was always ranked last on the list.

Maybe I can really make it onto the list during the imperial examination.

Uncle Sun didn’t understand what the first-class Jinshi, the second-class Jinshi, and the third-class Jinshi were.

He only knows about the top scorer, the role model, and the third place.

It was the first, second, and third place. It was only because He Shujin passed the high school entrance exam that I learned that the fourth place was called Chuanlu. I really didn’t know the difference between the other places.

Therefore, the only requirement for Sun Shan was to be on the list.

As for being the only one to take the lead, it's not that Uncle Sun looked down on Sun Shan, but the fact is that Sun Shan doesn't have that ability.

Uncle Sun was very clear that his nephew could only be on the list but could not become the top scorer in the imperial examination.

After thinking for a while, he nodded and said, "Shanzi, you are right. This exam not only tests your ability, but also your luck. I also think you are lucky. Your mother fell down the Wild Boar Hill and still gave birth to you, and you were in her belly for 8 months and came out alive and kicking, which proves that you are lucky. Yes, it is indeed worth going to the capital to give it a try. If you make the list, hahahaha, our Sun family will be even more proud. Haha, okay, then you can go to the capital to take the exam."

Sun Shan looked at Uncle Sun with great enthusiasm and asked, "Uncle Sun, I am going to Beijing to take the imperial examination. Do you want to express your opinion?"

After saying that, he made a "money" gesture.

Uncle Sun was stunned for a moment, then he exclaimed: "Shanzi, when did you become a bad person? Why have you become so mercenary now?"

Oh, Shanzi actually talked about money so directly. Uncle Sun couldn’t accept it.

In the past, he always gave it to Shanzi, and Shanzi always asked for it.

Why did Shanzi actually ask him for it this time?

Then Uncle Sun seemed to think of something, let out a cry, and patted his thigh.

Yes, Sun Shan has always loved money.

I remember that when he took the exam to become a scholar, he was given 10 taels of silver. Sun Shan didn't refuse at all and put the money directly into his pocket.

The same goes for taking the imperial examination. If you give him money, he will just take it directly and never say that he already has money and doesn't need it.

Sun Shan is a Pi Xiu. He will swallow one ounce of food. He will also swallow ten or twenty ounces of food and will never spit it out.

Sun Shan was speechless. Shouldn't I give him travel expenses for coming to see him so late?

He asked directly to avoid playing around with words.

It’s getting late, the right thing to do is to collect the money and go to bed early.

Sun Shan coughed, straightened his back, puffed out his chest, and said confidently: "Uncle San, I'm poor. I originally wanted to earn some money for the trip by holding a banquet.

Alas, who knew that after counting the accounts, I found out that I had lost quite a lot.

My father is a farmer, my mother is a cook, and as for my grandmother, she is rich, but she is so old, how could I dare to ask her for money?

Now I am worried about the travel expenses. You are different, Uncle San. You must have made a lot of money by collecting mountain products these years.

By the way, Uncle San, I heard from De Geer that you sold a lot of fairy grass, is that right? "

When Uncle Sun heard Sun Shan crying poor, he rolled his eyes.

What do you mean by "father and aunt have no money"? It's just a lie. Shanzi is not honest.

When Uncle Sun heard De Ge'er say that he had made a lot of money, he almost jumped up and down. He was determined to give De Ge'er a good lesson when he got back so that he would remember not to tell Shanzi everything.

However, when he heard that holding a banquet would be a loss-making business, Uncle Sun became interested.

Gossipingly, he asked, "Shanzi, how much money did you lose from the banquet? I told your father a long time ago that there was no use for such good meat in a banquet. Your father was too proud to suffer. He said he would be scolded if he didn't have good meat. Humph, now he is losing money. You must feel bad. Everyone in the surrounding area is poor. How much can you give as a gift? Ten cents is the most you can give."

Sun Shan shook his head and said, "Uncle San, let the past be the past. Don't mention it again, or it will hurt your heart. By the way, Uncle San, don't mention it in front of my father and mother. They are so worried that their hair has turned gray."
