"Brother Sheng! I want to live with you!"
After Wang Yi saw Zhao Yaren leaving, he shouted that he wanted to live with Wang Sheng, "I have wanted to live with Sheng for a long time. I'm sleeping on the same bed, but my mother won't let me."
"Okay, okay."
Wang Sheng agreed and turned around to see Wang Yan looking at his younger brother with helpless eyes. , seeing Wang Sheng looking at him, he immediately said seriously: "Sorry for the trouble, Brother Sheng."
"You're welcome, Brother Yan."
The final room arrangement is as follows, Wang Sheng and Wang Ye The two lived in the left room, Wang Yan and Wang Jing lived in the right room, and Wang Canhui lived in the bright room. This bright room was connected to the main hall for guests and the bedroom, separated by a shabby screen, so they could only sleep on one table.
After dividing their respective residences, Wang Sheng immediately started to clean up the house.
He took a broom to sweep away the spider silk from the high places. Looking down, he saw that Wang Yi was eager to climb up and wipe the emptied bookshelf, so he quickly stopped him.
"Brother, please clean our wooden bed first. We both have to sleep at night. This important matter is left to you."
"Okay, Brother Sheng! "
Wang Yi agreed and immediately turned his attention to the wooden bed, carefully wiping every gap in the bed and the wall next to the bed.
Wang Sheng saw Wang Yi give up climbing, and immediately breathed a sigh of relief, while he stepped on the chair to wipe the bookshelf.
Because the owner of this house is a scholar, the left room has bookshelves and a wooden table, and the right room has two wooden tables, which saves everyone the trouble of renting wooden tables. . There was no bedding on the old wooden bed, so I had to go to Nanshi to buy it.
While sorting out, Wang Sheng secretly wrote down the items he needed to buy.
Wang Sheng had just finished wiping the bookshelf. He twisted the rag and looked up. He realized that it was getting late and quickly called everyone to go to Nanshi to buy necessary items.
When he returned to his residence in the north of the city from the southern city, the sunset glowed slightly on the horizon. Wang Sheng took advantage of this dim light to clean the wooden table, and Wang Ye also swept the floor. The two brothers were carrying newly bought wooden basins to fetch water and lined up in the open room, waiting to wash up.
With the bright moon in the sky, Wang Sheng hung the clothes in his hands on a rope, went back to his room to rest, and lay on the bed calculating the day's expenses. More than five hundred cents were spent on rent, one hundred cents was paid to Uncle Canhui to help with cooking, and three hundred cents was spent on renting or buying some daily necessities. It seemed that this money was not easy to spend.
Wang Sheng was thinking about things and did not feel the faint sound coming from Wang Ye beside him.
Seeing that Wang Sheng ignored him, Wang Yi whispered softly: "Brother Sheng, Brother Sheng, are you asleep?"
Wang Sheng had just finished his calculations at this time. "No, what's the matter?"
"I can't sleep? I think I'm the last one. The chance of passing the exam this time is not high, just pure I came to Changle Mansion to play, but when I think about Brother Sheng being admitted as a scholar, we will no longer be roommates."
Wang Yi has an inexplicable obsession with being his deskmate.
Even though Wang Sheng had grown much taller in recent years and was moved to the back by Master Xu, he also went to find Master Xu and moved to the back with him. Although he muttered that he didn't like reading, he saw Wang Sheng studying. , will also read along.
"Don't think about it, brother, get up and read with me tomorrow. Maybe you and I will still be at the same table next year."
Wang Sheng did not comfort him, but led the group with practical actions. Reading is better than talking too much and not being able to get up to read tomorrow.
Wang Yi was silent now. After a while, he said, "Okay, Brother Sheng."
This chapter is not finished yet, click on the next page to continue reading.
Wang Sheng got up before dawn the next day to stretch his muscles. After washing, he went back to wake up Wang Yi who was still sleeping.
"Brother Ye, wake up, it's time to get up."
Wang Ye rubbed his eyes, got up numbly, called brother, washed up and sat next to Wang Sheng. , study with him.
I read like this for six days. I got up to exercise before dawn every day. I woke up Wang Yi and read together. After dinner, the four classmates gathered together to discuss.
During this period, Wang Canhui took charge of all matters in the courtyard, including inquiring about information and cleaning. Although the food was not that delicious, Wang Sheng and others could only afford food and clothing, so they reluctantly went to work. pharynx.
In addition, on the fourth day, Wang Sheng proposed to go to the book store to buy the Di newspaper. During the purchase, he found that there were obviously many more people in Fucheng on the fourth day. When he went to Nanshi to buy the Di newspaper, he met many people. A young scholar went to Nanshi to buy daily necessities.
When he came back, Wang Canhui told everyone that prices had risen in recent days, and renting items such as quilts cost a full hundred cash. It took two hundred cash to rent a worn-out quilt, and he couldn't choose.
He also asked about the inn closest to the examination room. He originally wanted to set a date for the release of the results, let everyone wait at the inn, and look at the results himself. He never thought of five hundred coins for a table, but now everyone agreed Decided to go back to his residence in the north of the city and wait.
As soon as the sixth day arrived, Wang Canhui told everyone something.
"For your food tomorrow, I have already asked Sister Miao from Nan City to bake the buns. Most of the candidates coming to Changle Prefecture will book at their house, so that's right."
"When we bring this bun back, we'll cut it into small pieces. Not only will it be easier for us to eat, but it will also prevent us from accidentally bringing things into the examination room."
Wang Sheng thought for a moment and said cautiously, Although multiple people have made reservations, if they miss it and hide a note at the cake, even if there is no writing on it, they will be sentenced to cheating and not allowed to take the exam for three years. More importantly, the matter will be reported to the government, leaving a black mark.
"It's easy to talk about, leave this matter to me."
Wang Canhui agreed. After returning from going out in the afternoon, he hid in the kitchen and cut the white buns into small pieces with a knife. In cube shape, eat it with the dried meat you bought at the grocery store.Divide it into four portions and distribute it to everyone.
Wang Sheng took the food and put it into the basket. He would have to get up at least an hour early tomorrow to catch up to the Gongyuan in the southeast of the city, so he had to prepare things early today.
There were three government examinations, and the content was very different from the county examination. Therefore, Wang Sheng calmed down, packed up his things and was about to lie down. When he looked up, Wang Yi was still reading at night at his desk, thinking. After a while, he said: "Brother Sheng, come and have a rest early for the exam tomorrow. We can get up at four o'clock. Studying is not a day's work."
"Brother Sheng." Wang Yezhuan He turned around and showed a dumbfounded expression, "The more I read the book, the more unfamiliar it becomes. I'm afraid I won't be able to take the scientific examination tomorrow."
"Then I'll choose something I can write tomorrow. I won't. Let it go first and think about those questions later. If you get the exam, don't waste your time thinking about it."
Wang Sheng comforted him and decided to do the questions himself. The idea was expressed.
In this state, Wang Yi is afraid that he will panic before the exam, which is commonly known as pre-exam anxiety. All he needs to do is divert his attention, and he has been reviewing old knowledge carefully in recent days. If he gets the Tie Jing exam, he might win the prize. Wang Sheng didn't say these words for fear of affecting Wang Yi's mentality.
Wang Yi thought for a moment and couldn't read the book anymore, so he put the book down and lay down next to Wang Sheng, "Brother Sheng, what questions will you tell me tomorrow?"
"There are only four books and five classics, including Ce Wen's poems and poems. We have read these in recent days. Let's rest peacefully."
Wang Sheng said, his consciousness has been blurred, and he has developed a habit in recent days. His routine made him fall into a deep sleep decisively after answering this sentence.
Wang Yi wanted to say something more, but when he turned around, he saw that Wang Sheng had already fallen asleep, and he also fell asleep.
