Chapter 957: Cowboys coming to the city is the same as not coming to the city

The next morning, Sun Shan got up with unsteady steps, feeling very depressed.

Sister Yun acted like a madman last night, it was really scary.

Sun Shan wondered whether he should find an excuse to go sleep with the other kids. He couldn't stand it if this happened any more times.

After breakfast, the servant from Aunt Sun brought him a letter.

Sun Shan opened it puzzled and found it was a letter from Qian Yingyang. His mood instantly became much better.

The little crybaby, Wutou, Cowboy, Huming and Xiatou who were doing their homework nearby looked at Sun Shan strangely, but they knew that when Sun Shan was in a good mood, they were in a good mood too.

Especially the cowboy, that one is so miserable.

I thought I could have fun now that I had arrived in the city, but I didn't expect to be caught by Uncle Shan to do homework.

Coming to the provincial capital is the same as not coming to the provincial capital, and it is even worse than being in school.

The cowboy was frightened and under great pressure when a distinguished scholar taught him his lessons.

The cowboy couldn't help but envy Xiao Guangzai. At this moment, he must be playing around with Xiao Guangzai.

Xiao Guangzai didn't go to school after the Chinese New Year, so he escaped Uncle Shan's supervision.

The cowboy also wanted to tell Uncle Shan that he didn't want to study anymore.

But Cowboy knew that if he said this, it would not be his uncle who would beat him, but his father, or even his grandfather in Sunjia Village who would rush over to beat him.

The cowboy wanted to cry but had no tears, so he could only do his homework while wiping his tears.

Sun Shan had no idea what the little brat was thinking. He just felt that the kids at home were playing too wildly and needed to be disciplined.

Let them get up early in the morning to do their homework so they can go out and play in the afternoon.

Reading Qian Yingyang's letter, Sun Shan couldn't help but laugh.

Qian Yingyang has been working as the mayor of a county under Duanzhou Prefecture for more than half a year.

The letter began by expressing his happiness at Sun Shan's return home, but it was a pity that he had to work hard and could not leave for another place, otherwise he would definitely look for Sun Shan to get together.

Then he congratulated Sun Shan on passing the imperial examination and becoming the magistrate of the county.

Then he told Sun Shan about the joys and sorrows of being a county magistrate.

I found that all the previous things were just talk, and actually being an official is another matter.

In the letter, Qian Yingyang lamented that it was fortunate that he was a local, as it would be even more difficult for a foreigner to be an official in another place.

He then complained to Sun Shan about his immediate superior, the county magistrate, saying that his job as a county magistrate felt a bit aggrieved because he had to do things according to his immediate superior's wishes.

At the same time, I comforted myself that my immediate boss was ambitious and would work hard to climb up the ladder, and maybe he would be transferred in three years.

However, when it comes to the issue of transfer, Qian Yingyang is contradictory, fearing that someone more difficult to deal with will be transferred.

After finally getting used to each other and knowing how to get along with each other, if he is transferred, you have to start all over again with a new boss, which is so tiring.

Qian Yingyang had thought about replacing him, but he had no connections or influence in the court, and his family only had some money and power in Duanzhou, which would be useless if he left.

Just like the last time he sought an official position in the capital, he spent a lot of money, and in the end it was thanks to the help of his classmate Sun Shan that he got it done.

Qian Yingyang knew his family's weight from this incident. Adding that he himself did not have outstanding abilities, it would be even more difficult for him to move up.

Qian Yingyang also said that it would be nice to be a county magistrate in Duanzhou Prefecture for life, as he would have no worries about food and clothing and could also protect the family business.

In the letter, Qian Yingyang happily told Sun Shan that his eldest son was going to have a younger brother, and congratulated Sun Shan on the birth of his daughter.

Finally, he asked Sun Shan whether he had received any letter from Zhu Pengyun, and asked him if he would continue to take the exam after knowing that he had failed.

There were a lot of things in the letter, and it was as thick as a book.

This is all thanks to the fact that it’s free to carry a letter. If it cost money, the postage would probably be quite high.

Qian Yingyang brought a gift to Sun Shan along with the letter.

Some local county specialties, as well as gifts and gifts for the little fat girl.

Sun Shan opened it and saw that he had given 20 taels of gift money, and he couldn't help but laugh. Qian Yingyang was just like him, he liked giving money instead of gifts.

Hehe, everyone is so real.

I opened the gift from the fat girl again, wow, it was shining with gold.

There are gold bracelets, gold longevity locks, and a set of gold bowls, chopsticks and spoons.

Qian Yingyang's gift won Sun Shan's heart and he is worthy of being his good friend and brother.

Three-piece set of bowl, chopsticks and spoon

Qian Yingyang's letter was brought from Duanzhou Prefecture by the family's steward.

Sun Shan thought about replying to the letter in a few days, and at the same time ask for some special products from Sunjia Village and a gift for Qian Xiaolang.

You can't just take in without giving out, only reciprocity can keep things going long-lasting.

Soon the morning passed. Sun Shan glanced around and saw the kids at home scratching their heads, looking bitter and resentful. He found it both funny and infuriating.

Sun Shan coughed and asked, "Have you finished your homework?"

Hu Ming and Xia Tou stood up and said, "Godfather/Uncle, we have finished writing."

Very good, Sun Shan looked at the two little kids with satisfaction.

He smiled and said, "Okay, turn in your homework and then you can go out and play."

Hu Ming and Xia Tou handed in their homework and couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Although I knew I had finished writing and felt that I had done a good job, I couldn't help but feel nervous when the Jinshi gentleman looked at me like that.

The two kids who studied hard and diligently thought the same thing as the poor students: the teacher in the school is better, and it is better to study with the teacher in the school than with the Jinshi master.

Sun Shan looked at the remaining poor students and asked, "Have you finished?"

Little crybaby, Wutou, and Cowboy are almost crying. They haven’t finished yet. What should they do?

When these kids looked up, Sun Shan knew what they were thinking.

The assignments are still based on their level of learning. In short, the poor students do the simple ones, and the top students do the slightly more difficult ones.

I didn’t expect that the questions I set were so simple, but these poor students still couldn’t finish them.

Sun Shan couldn't even complete such a simple homework. He used to hold out a glimmer of hope, but now he was in despair.

With this level, there is no way to compete in Huangyang County, let alone outside.

Sun Shan showed no emotion, and said coldly, "If you haven't finished yet, keep working on it. You can go out and play only after you finish it."

When the three poor students heard what Sun Shan said, their faces fell.

If Sun Shan was not a Jinshi, they would have wanted to cry long ago.

If they can’t do it, then they can’t do it, and they don’t want to do it.

Sun Shan continued, "If you don't understand something, the three of you can discuss it together. You can go out and play only after you finish your homework."

Sun Shan felt that he had already let it go enough, and if he couldn't finish it, he had no choice but to take action.

Hey, Sun Shan now understands why the teachers in the school have to beat the students. Sometimes they have no choice but to do so.

Sun Shan added: "You guys discuss it carefully, and hand it to me when you're done. I'll go back to my study to practice calligraphy."

How considerate of me! If I were there, the three little kids would definitely be terrified. I would have to leave and let them discuss it.

Sun Shan shook his head and walked out of the yard.

Seeing Grain Rain, Beginning of Summer, Cold Dew, Grain Full, Xiao Huangshi and Li Jinhua were helping Sushi to pack red envelopes in the yard.

These red envelopes are distributed to guests during banquets.

Sister Yun took the little fat sister back to her parents' home. It was a rare opportunity to stay in the city, so when would they go back?

As for Zeng Jiajun, De Ge'er, and Sun Dingnan, they followed the village chief and Sun Boming to prepare food for the banquet.

Although Aunt Sun has prepared everything, there are still some things to add.
