Chapter 676: Brother Shan lost a lot of money, so we should eat less lychee roast goose

He Shuqiang ran in breathlessly and shouted from the outer courtyard: "Brother Shan, Brother Shan, where are you?"

Sun Shan, who was practicing calligraphy in his study, felt his hands tremble and looked out the window helplessly.

The sequelae of the poisoning had not been completely cured. His legs would become numb if he walked a long distance, and his hands would also become numb if he used them for a long time. The He family had also helped Sun Shan find a doctor.

The conclusion was that his legs and feet seemed to be fine. As for why this was the case, it might be that his brain was not fully repaired, or might never be repaired in his lifetime.

Doctors can't figure out these things either.

However, the doctor saw that he could eat, drink, dance and sing, just like other people, so he comforted him and told him not to think too much and to let nature take its course.

He Shuqiang even said at the time: "Brother Shan, your handwriting is just so-so. It can't be that ugly. Actually, you don't have to care about it. It's like this anyway, so just muddle along."

Sister Yun said comfortingly, "Brother Shan, someone will copy the examination papers, so no matter how ugly your handwriting is, the examiners won't see it. As long as you write well, you will definitely pass. When your paper is opened, even if they see that your handwriting is ugly, you won't be dismissed. At most, you will be ranked lower. Anyway, as long as you pass the exam, it's fine. Jinshi is much better than Juren."

After a pause, Sister Yun muttered, "Brother Shan, it doesn't matter if you fail the exam. You are already a juren. You are much higher than my elder brother."

Sun Shan really wanted to say: Thank you brothers and sisters for your comfort, but please don’t comfort me next time.

I feel even more depressed when you comfort me.

However, He Shuqiang and Yun Jie'er didn't notice Sun Shan's depression at all, because the two siblings started fighting.

Big Fatty was completely hurt by Yun Jie'er, but Yun Jie'er argued with him and insisted that she was not wrong.

So the two siblings quarreled and wanted to break off their friendship.

Finally, Sun Shan's eyes turned "poisonous" as he crossed the mountain peak, and the fat brother and sister huddled together in fear.

In less than a few seconds, he was back to normal and resisted Sun Shan's death stare.

He Shuqiang walked to the small courtyard and saw Gui Ge'er feeding the fish. He quickly asked, "Gui Ge'er, where is your Shan Ge?"

Gui Ge'er said cheerfully, "Brother-in-law, Brother Shan is practicing calligraphy in the study. If you have nothing to do, please sit down for a while. Our Brother Shan cannot be disturbed when he is practicing calligraphy."

He Shuqiang said "urgent" and hurried to the study.

Sun Shan looked at the blurred words, sighed, and packed up his writing brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Big Fatty had already run in, panting as he glanced at the study, and asked curiously, "Brother Shan, didn't Brother Gui say you were practicing calligraphy?"

Sun Shan refused to answer directly, and asked, "What is it?"

I looked at the sky. It was late in the afternoon, so there was no way the class would be over so early. He must have skipped class.

He Shuqiang only then remembered the purpose of his visit, and immediately cried out in grief: "Brother Shan, this is unjust. I received a notice today that the court will not hold an imperial examination, but will directly increase the number of admissions in the provincial and metropolitan examinations. You know about this, right?"

Sun Shan nodded: "What's wrong? The provincial and imperial examinations have nothing to do with you. You don't need to be nervous."

Da Pangpang is still a tongsheng, and his younger brother He Shutong also happened to be successfully promoted to a tongsheng this year, so Da Pangpang has now become the target of public criticism, and the He family dislikes him even more.

He Shuqiang choked. He knew it was none of his business. Why would Brother Shan say such cruel words?

This is a stab in the heart! Ouch, it hurts so much, it’s so uncomfortable, what should I do?

He Shuqiang covered his chest with his big fat hand and said sadly: "Brother Shan, why don't you tell me why the imperial court doesn't increase the number of places for the college entrance examination? Why?"

Big Fatty's heart was bleeding. Why could the number of admissions for the provincial examinations and the metropolitan examinations be increased, but not for the academy examinations?

why why?

Could it be that the new emperor is targeting him and doesn't want him to pass the entrance examination, so he deliberately doesn't increase the number of places?

Although the new emperor didn't know him and he didn't know the new emperor, it didn't stop Fatty from starting to become suspicious and come up with conspiracy theories.

Sun Shan rolled his eyes, and his triangle eyes drooped even higher.

He said speechlessly: "Brother Qiang, the college entrance examination is held twice every three years. There are enough opportunities and enough quotas. If there are more, you can just pass it by studying. Why bother taking the exam?"

After a pause, he continued, "Besides, scholars are only slightly better than commoners, and they are not candidates for official positions. Not to mention the new emperor, officials don't even look down on scholars. So, why do we need to increase the number of places?"

Big Fatty covered his chest, opened his eyes wide, stepped back repeatedly, and said heartbrokenly: "Brother Shan, why do you say that? What do you mean a scholar is not a talent? It's so difficult to pass the exam to become a scholar, do you know that?"

Big Fatty is so sad. He doesn’t know how many times he has taken the exam.

I spent three days in the examination room every time, and I lost 10 kilograms every time I came out. The days in the examination room were so hard.

After the results came out, I still failed.

It is so difficult to pass the exam to become a scholar. Brother Shan actually said that scholars are worthless and the new emperor and officials look down on them. Big Fatty is really sad.

The things that you long for day and night but never get are actually worthless in the eyes of others.

He Shuqiang wanted to cover his face and cry.

Sun Shan waved his hand and said calmly, "How difficult is it to pass the exam to become a scholar? Look, I passed it. Not only did I pass it, but many people in your family also passed it. If it was difficult, how come so many people passed it? Humph, brother, don't mess around here, just study hard. You are lucky to meet me, a scholar, who will give you special treatment and one-on-one teaching. Humph, others can't even hope for it."

Sister Yun walked in from outside and said in agreement, "Brother Shan, you are right. Big brother just doesn't know how to appreciate the good fortune he has. The Juren Master is teaching him one-on-one in person. This is a good thing that others can't even get if they want it."

He turned his round body and looked at He Shuqiang, saying coldly, "Brother, someone outside invited Brother Shan to sit at the table, but Brother Shan refused in order to teach you. Humph, don't be so ungrateful. Brother Shan lost a lot of money, and we ate less roast goose with lychees."

He Shuqiang has become accustomed to his elder sister's fingers biting out but not in.

But I still can't bear to hear it again and again and again.

With his eyes wide open, he pointed at Sister Yun and said, "You..."

You were speechless for a long time.

Sun Shan asked, "Brother Qiang, what do you want from me? If not, go to the study and do the papers. I have prepared a lot of them recently. You can do them one by one. When I go to Beijing to take the exam, you can still do the papers and grade them for other teachers."

Whether in Yuelu Academy or Jinling, Sun Shan sorted out a lot of previous papers and papers written by famous teachers, and added papers he wrote himself, so that He Shuqiang could keep doing them.

The tactic of doing a lot of questions may help Da Pangpang pass the college entrance examination.

If he still can't make the list, then Sun Shan is really helpless and there's nothing he can do.

He Shuqiang didn't want to do it and wanted to bargain with Sun Shan.

But when he met Sun Shan's eyes, he immediately became dispirited and ran away dejectedly to do the test paper.

In the evening, I saw that there was roast goose with lychees. I ate two goose legs in a row before leaving feeling satisfied.

Yun Jieer was so angry that she wanted to close the door and let the dog out to bite Da Pangpang.
