Born in an ancient peasant family, the peasant girl became famous all over the world

Chapter 134 After the Autumn Examination, Let’s Get Back on Track

At the beginning of her thirteenth year, Jiang Yue had grown taller. At the request of her second sister, she found her former mentor, Wei Changsheng.

I told him about Cheng Yuchu's deeds.

When I went there, I brought a lot of dried meat and fruits.

What she didn't expect was that Wei Changsheng was extremely excited when he heard the three words "Cheng Yuchu".

"What a good student, as outstanding as you and Ye Chen, how could he disappear for no reason? Jiang Yue, since he is your brother-in-law, someone in your village will vouch for him. I am also willing to vouch for him, but the college entrance examination will have to wait until next year."

"Thank you, sir." Jiang Yue thanked him sincerely. Next year is next year. Her second brother-in-law has lived with her for so many years, so one more year won't make a difference.

As soon as she returned home that day, she told the good news to Cheng Yuchu, who was completely unaware of the situation.

"How could I, Cheng Yuchu, deserve such help from the Jiang family?"

Cheng Yuchu's eyes suddenly turned red. He thanked Jiang Yue profusely and hugged Jiang Erni's body, refusing to let go.

Jiang Erni felt sweet inside and was extremely grateful to Jiang Yue.

From then on, Cheng Yuchu continued his journey to take the imperial examination.

In the days that followed, he was often busy reading books to prepare for the upcoming college entrance examination.

...Jiang Yue continued to study and continued to do business with Shen Fangze.

She also used Shen Fangze's connections to help her second sister and brother-in-law open up many business opportunities.

……

It was a summer day. Jiang Yue felt inexplicably uneasy on her way to the academy this morning.

Unexpectedly, we ran into a funeral procession on the street.

She stared and paused, listening to the others' comments.

“What a pity.”

"Alas, pitiful, even if he dies he can only leave through the side door."

"I heard that this hearse will be sent to her mother's home."

"Alas, I would rather be the wife of a poor family than the concubine of a rich family."

"..."

Jiang Yue looked at it and felt confused for a moment.

…………

She went to Baichuan Academy again,

In the academy, Duan Anping became the top scholar in the class and began to study hard.

All day long, I talked to them about past exam questions.

"Historically, the autumn examination has been divided into three parts."

"The first session involves the Four Books and Five Classics, which requires you to have a deep understanding and mastery of this type of literature."

"The second test focuses on the Five Classics. It usually includes one essay writing test, as well as edicts, judgments, memorials, and imperial edicts. It requires you to have a solid foundation in classics and good literary literacy."

"The last round will focus on current affairs. You will combine the theories of classics to express your opinions on current affairs and political affairs. This will test your understanding and analytical ability of current affairs."

After Duan Anping roughly explained what he speculated about the content of the provincial examination, he took out previous examination questions and began to analyze them in detail.

All previous exam questions were sealed, and Duan Anping only relied on the self-descriptions of previous candidates.

It can be said that in order to know the content of the test questions, he ran himself ragged and spent a lot of money.

In recent months, Duan Anping has been talking until his mouth is dry, and he just hopes that after the provincial examination, all the students who take the exam will be able to pass.

Jiang Yue listened carefully, and whenever the teacher talked about the key points, she did not forget to take notes.

At the end of the speech, Duan Anping asked about students and registration.

"Candidates, I will be the sole agent for registration. The provincial examination is coming soon. You don't need to come again after you register. Those who come early can leave at any time to Qingyunzhou to participate in the autumn examination. If you pass the examination, you will no longer need to come to Baichuan Academy. Those who want to enter Huai'an Academy can ask me to write a letter of recommendation and prepare for the upcoming joint examination and palace examination."

Duan Anping intended to motivate the students, and his encouragement was indeed effective.

…In the evening of July, Jiang Yue returned to the village and went to the ranch first.

Facing the tall horse in the ranch, she untied the reins and jumped onto the horse's back.

The movement was so fast that it startled my grandmother, sister and brother-in-law who were not far away.

"When did Xiaoliu learn to ride a horse?" Jiang Dani asked in confusion, and her eyes fell on Lin Guo.

Lin Guo hurriedly shook his head, "I didn't teach you that."

"Don't forget, Xiaoliu practices martial arts." Mu Heng's words dispelled everyone's doubts.

Jiang Yue waved and greeted her family, and when she saw her grandmother approaching, she quickly jumped off the horse.

"grandmother……"

Liu Chunfeng: "Xiao Liu, that's a horse, be careful!"

"Yes." Jiang Yue nodded, "Grandma, Xiaoliu wants to ride a horse to school in the future."

"How can this be possible? You are still a child."

Jiang Yue: "I'm thirteen years old, I can do it."

After that, she mounted the horse again, circled the pasture twice, put the horse back in place, and approached grandma.

"Grandma, when you grow up, you must be independent."

Faced with Jiang Yue's request, Liu Chunfeng finally compromised.

Although, Jiang Yue no longer has the same concerns about Yuan family as before.

But when facing her grandmother, she felt a little guilty.

Grandma has a sensitive personality and is easily troubled, so she doesn't want her grandma to worry.

Facing her grandmother who was already over fifty years old, especially looking at the white hair on her temples, she felt a pang in her heart and couldn't help but hug her grandmother.

"Everything is fine. What's wrong?" Liu Chunfeng smiled kindly and patted Jiang Yue's back.

"Grandma, I may not be able to go home for the next two months." Jiang Yue originally wanted to hide it, but she really didn't want to lie to her grandma.

"Grandma, I want to participate in this year's autumn examination."

"Xiao Liu, you..." Liu Chunfeng's expression suddenly became nervous. She shook her head and fell into deep thought.

"Grandma, promise me that Xiaoliu won't cause any trouble."

"Alas!" Liu Chunfeng thought for a long time, and finally agreed.

"Okay, after the Autumn Examination, focus on your studies." Originally, she just wanted Jiang Yue to learn more words.

"Don't worry, grandma." Jiang Yue felt relieved. After saying this, she took Xiao Lin'er from her elder sister and hugged him intimately.

At night, I had dinner with my grandma, sister and brothers-in-law as usual.

Everyone in the family hoped that Jiang Yue could pass the imperial examination. The second sister, who had never believed in Buddhism, even dragged Jiang Yue to Yunshan Temple in person.

The next day, Jiang Yue went to the martial arts gym again and practiced with her master for two whole days. It was pitch dark during these two days, and she only returned to the village then.

On the third day, she personally prepared some more dried meat, dry food, and a water bag in the kitchen, said goodbye to her grandmother and other family members, and prepared to embark on her own journey to the autumn examination.
