Chapter 98: Sick Dad 9
After Han Daya's matter was resolved, Han Ze began to pack his bags and prepare to go to Fucheng.
Although he knew that the eldest son fainted in the examination room was caused by his daughter drugging him, but Han Youtian had a shadow, fearing that his eldest son would faint in the examination room like he did a few times before, and no one would take care of him, so he asked Han Erlang to accompany him to the examination as usual.
Han Ze knew what it was like to be a father, and he understood him very well. He didn't say anything, and let him arrange it. After all, Han Erlang was with him for the previous exams.
In addition to Han Ze, there are two other students in the school who are going to take the entrance examination. They entered school later and are younger than Han Ze. Both of them know each other, but they are not familiar with each other. Even so, they are all willing to go to Fucheng with Han Ze. You should be very familiar with the college test, and if you don’t understand something, you can ask him. Besides, everyone is from the same town, the same school, and the same teacher, so you can take care of each other.
The other two students are from the town, Fang Ziwen is seventeen years old this year, Zhao Zhengxiu is a little older, just barely crowned. When Han Ze came here, the original body was already twenty-five years old, but this year he is twenty-six years old. Although he is old, if he can pass the examination of scholar, he has a lot to do.
Zhao Zhengxiu's family is a merchant, and his family has a convoy to deliver goods to Fucheng, so he invited Han Ze and Wang Ziwen to go to Fucheng with their delivery convoy. Han Ze and Wang Ziwen readily agreed that the original body went to Fucheng several times, and they also went with the convoy of the merchants in the town.
They set off on the sixth day of April, and they traveled by land. They would spend three days and three nights on the road. Fortunately, it was still early before the exam time, so they were not in a hurry.
At noon on the ninth day of the ninth day, the convoy arrived in Fucheng. They found an inn not far from the examination room. They came not too early or too late. Nearly half of the people lived in the inn. The rooms in the inn are divided into upper, middle and lower classes. Wen Qian, 400 Wen for a medium room, 200 Wen for an inferior room. Zhao Zhengxiu was not short of money, so he directly asked for a first-class room.
Considering that he didn't have much money, Han Ze chose the inferior room and paid ten days' rent directly. Although Wang Ziwen is from the town, his hands are not loose. He also chose the inferior housing with Han Ze, and also paid ten days' rent.
The accommodation was properly arranged. When it was lunch time, after lunch, several people hurried to go to the government office to go through the formalities. After returning, Zhao Zhengxiu invited them to go to the city for a stroll, but Han Ze refused. His purpose was to take the exam. A few days before the exam, he was old Just stay in the inn.
Wang Ziwen had never been to Fucheng, and was very curious about Fucheng. Seeing his invitation, he was very excited. Seeing that Han Ze did not agree, he thought about it and regretfully refused.
None of them wanted to go out to play, and Zhao Zhengxiu didn't have much fun by himself, so he went back to his room to read.
After calming down, Han Ze took out the book and read it slowly. Seeing his eldest brother reading a book, Han Erlang went to the inn lobby to listen to people talking.
During the days of waiting for the scientific examination, Zhao Zhengxiu never invited the two of them out to play again.
For candidates, time passed both fast and slow, and soon it was the day of the college examination.
Before dawn, there was a long queue in front of the examination room. Han Ze and others carried the prepared test baskets and waited in front of the examination room for inspection. After checking the materials, the candidates entered the examination room one by one.
There will be two exams for the college exam, and it will take three days. Because he is worried about his elder brother, Han Erlang watched his elder brother enter the examination room, and instead of going back to the inn, he stayed in front of the examination room every step of the way. During the waiting time, his heart He was always tense, staring at the gate of the examination room, for fear that his elder brother would be carried out of the examination room like the previous few times.
Zhao Zhengxiu and Wang Ziwen's bookboy looked at him and couldn't help shaking their heads and sighing.
Han Erlang didn't explain to them, how could they understand his difficulties, his eldest brother would faint in the examination room when he came back for the exam, although he knew it was because the eldest sister gave him medicine, but who knew that the medicine was still there? Are there any side effects?
After all, the shadow in his heart did not dissipate, and his eldest brother did not come out of the examination room, so he couldn't let go of his concern.
At lunch time, Zhao Zhengxiu and Wang Ziwen's book boy called him to eat. He shook his head vigorously and asked them to help buy some food. He still stood in front of the examination room.
The first day passed safely, and no one was carried out of the examination room. Han Erlang was very relieved. On the second day, I continued to wait in the examination room. No one was carried out of the examination room in the morning, and some people were kicked out of the examination room in the afternoon. Han Erlang didn't dare to ask around, but after listening carefully, he realized that the man had been found cheating.
Han Erlang took Zhao Zhengxiu and Wang Ziwen's book boy to hide aside. The three of them were frightened. Fortunately, they passed the second day safely. The elder brother was not carried out. He was relieved again and went around to pray for the blessing of the Buddha. , Big brother has persisted for two days, must persist tomorrow, don't be carried out.
On the third day, the three of them went to the examination room early again. As soon as they arrived at the examination room, they saw the commotion in front of them. It turned out that some candidates fainted in the examination room and were carried out.
Han Erlang was startled, and ran forward. He tried his best to push through the crowd, and when he saw the person lying on the stretcher, he felt relieved, it wasn't the elder brother.
He touched the cold sweat on his forehead and kept panting, luckily it wasn't the eldest brother. It may be that the Buddha heard his wish, and no candidates were carried out until the exam was over.
Candidates came out of the examination room one after another. Han Erlang stared closely at the candidates who came out of the examination room, for fear of missing his eldest brother.
When Han Ze left the examination room, he saw Han Erlang staring eagerly at the gate of the examination room. He smiled and shouted: "Erlang."
Han Erlang seemed to hear the sound of nature, and the first sentence was: "Brother, you didn't faint?"
It's amazing that the elder brother didn't faint.
Han Ze looked at him with a smile, and he also looked relieved: "Yes, brother didn't faint. Persevere and finish the exam."
For Han Erlang, he may not care about how his elder brother did in the exam, as long as his elder brother is in good health, he is making progress.
At this time, Zhao Zhengxiu and Wang Ziwen also came out of the examination room. They heard the conversation between the two brothers, and they were quite funny. They wanted to tease a few words. Thinking of Han Ze's feat of fainting in the examination room after returning to the exam, they shut up.
Back at the inn, took a bath, had a meal, lay down on the bed, and fell into a deep sleep. When Han Ze was sleeping, Han Erlang was smiling and listening to people talking about the scientific examination in the lobby. Zhao Zhengxiu's book boy came and asked him, "How did your elder brother do in the examination?"
Han Erlang was stunned and scratched his head, "I didn't ask him."
Zhao Zhengxiu's book boy smiled and said, "My young master did well in the exam."
Han Erlang was happy for him, and said: "My elder brother can persist in the examination room for three days without fainting, which is already a good thing for us. As for how the elder brother did in the exam, I don't think that is important."
In fact, in his heart, he had no hope that his elder brother would pass the imperial examination.
Zhao Zhengxiu's book boy: "..."
Xin said, you have a big heart, since you don't worry about how you do in the exam, why are you taking the exam?
After Han Ze woke up, he ate a full meal. At this time, Zhao Zhengxiu came to him and asked how he was doing in the exam. Han Ze smiled and said, "Play normally."
Zhao Zhengxiu smiled: "Me too."
While talking, Wang Ziwen came over and asked with a smile: "The exam is over, shall we go out for a stroll?"
Han Ze raised his eyebrows, a little moved. Han Erlang was very excited when he heard that he could go shopping. He came to Fucheng a few times. Because his elder brother would faint every time he returned, he had never visited Fucheng. Someone asked him about Fucheng. No matter what, he couldn't answer. The elder brother didn't faint this time, they finally had a chance to visit Fucheng.
Zhao Zhengxiu asked him with a smile: "Seeing your happy face, you think you did well in the exam?"
Wang Ziwen said with a smile: "I didn't think too much about it, just finish the exam. As for how to pass the exam, let's do it."
Zhao Zhengxiu raised his eyebrows, Wang Ziwen was young, but his thoughts were clear.
Things in Fucheng are more expensive than those in the town. Han Ze didn't have much money, so he wanted to buy something for his family, but seeing the expensive price, he gave up. So when they go shopping, they really just go shopping without buying anything.
A few days before the release of the list, Han Ze and the others completely let go. Even if they don't have much money in hand, they will go out for a stroll every day to see the scenery of Fucheng.
On the day when the rankings were released, it was dark, so they went to the place where the rankings were released. They came quite early, but they were still full of people. After the list was posted, crowds of bees crowded there to watch it.
Although Han Ze's body is recovering, he is still thinner than Han Erlang. So I asked Erlang to squeeze in front to read the list. When he was young, he also studied for two years, and he still knew some characters, so he naturally knew the name of his eldest brother.
Although he didn't report any hope for his eldest brother's exam, he still had some expectations in his heart. He still couldn't believe it when he saw his name in the third place. Pulling the person next to him, he asked, "Brother, can you help me find out if the third place is Han Ze?"
The person held by him was a little impatient. Hearing his words, he said without thinking, "The third place is indeed Han Ze."
He memorized the names of the top three. He looked at him and was about to ask something when Han Erlang yelled happily, let go of his hand, and pushed his way through the crowd.
When he ran outside and saw the elder brother standing in the crowd, he said in surprise, "I got hit, I got hit."
Nothing unexpected happened to Han Ze, Wang Ziwen hurriedly asked, "Which place did you win?"
Han Erlang scratched his head, with a constant smile on his face, "The third name is Big Brother."
Wang Ziwen looked at Han Ze, "Brother Han, you did well in the exam." Then he asked Han Erlang, "Did you see the names of me and Brother Zhao?"
Zhao Zhengxiu also looked at him expectantly.
Han Erlang groaned, "I didn't continue to look down."
Wang Ziwen was disappointed. Just as he was about to speak, his bookboy came over. Wang Ziwen looked at him, and the bookboy smiled and said, "You all won. You all won."
Wang Ziwen and Zhao Zhengxiu breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, Wang Ziwen asked again: "How many names have you won?"
The book boy said again: "Master, you won the seventeenth place, and Young Master Zhao won the forty-sixth place..."
When Zhao Zhengxiu heard his ranking, he didn't care too much, and said with a smile, "It's fine if you win."
When Han Erlang returned to the inn, his whole body was still floating. He couldn't believe that his elder brother actually passed the exam. He pinched his thigh fiercely. Oh my god, it hurt so much. Said: "Brother, am I not dreaming? Did you really pass the exam?"
Han Ze said angrily, "Do you want me to pinch you again?"
Han Erlang hurriedly hid aside, "No need, no need. I've already woken up from the dream."
