Chapter 487 The soft and bullying sister-in-law VS the sinister brother-in-law who was borrowed 37

She went out and walked along the alley to the main street, taking in a panoramic view of the excitement and prosperity of Fengqi County.

The shops on the street are dazzling, with a variety of products that are overwhelming.

She first went to the grocery store and bought some daily necessities, such as oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, rice, flour, grain and oil, oil lamps, brooms, needlework, wooden basins, etc.

Dishes, plates, chopsticks, soup basins, lard pots, and casseroles for stewing soup. These are all daily necessities, and I bought some of them one by one.

Yu Yao saw bay leaves, cinnamon, star anise, dried chili peppers, and rock sugar on the shelves, and she picked some each.

Made the owner of the grocery store beam with joy and said nice things to him for free.

She looked at the boss and smiled back.

Then I picked some miscellaneous items.

Finally, when she saw that she had almost bought everything, she paid the money and asked the boss to send her a place to stay.

Seeing that she was happy and bought a lot of things, the boss hurriedly agreed.

Afterwards, I went to the fresh food market and bought some fruits and vegetables that were available in this season. I also bought a piece of tofu. It was very cheap, only 3 cents for a large piece.

There were too many things to carry, so I bought a basket and put the things in it, just carrying them in my hands.

When I passed by a pork stall, I ordered a pound of pork belly and asked the boss for two large bones to make soup.

Leave the fresh market and reappear on the street.

When I saw the silk and satin shop on the street, I thought that the materials in my space were too expensive and not suitable for my current status.

I went in and picked out some bright and refreshing cloth.

Firstly, I can make covers for quilts and sheets, and secondly, I am also going to make two sets of clothes for myself and Chen Mufeng.

I bought a few more pairs of soles, some from hers and some from Chen Mufeng, and I am going to store a few pairs of shoes.

After paying the money, I left the silk and satin shop with my things in my arms. I had so many things in my hands that I couldn’t even see the road.

As soon as he turned around, he turned into the alley next door. Seeing that there was no one around, he threw them all into the space and took them out when he returned to the yard.

Yu Yao clapped her hands, came out of the alley, inquired all the way, and walked towards the examination room.

At this time, the atmosphere in the examination room was tense and solemn. Rows of dormitories were neatly arranged, like small grids, separating the candidates.

Each dormitory is a place where a candidate takes the exam. The space is small and cramped, with room for only one person, one table and one stool.

Except for going to the hut, everyone eats, drinks and sleeps in it. Each session lasts for three days and two nights, for a total of nine days and seven nights.

After a scientific examination, many people couldn't hold on.

The conditions of the dormitories are also uneven. Some of them are relatively spacious and bright, which can be considered a "good number" if you are lucky.

There are also some "bad names" with poor conditions.

This "stinky smell" is often close to toilets or in areas with poor ventilation. The smell is pungent and unpleasant, and mosquitoes are rampant at night.

If it rains, it will leak.

Chen Mufeng was lucky and was assigned a good title.

Zhang Shuhan’s dormitory is not far from Chen Mufeng, and there are only a few candidates between them.

Li Mingxuan was a bit unlucky and was assigned a bad number.

As soon as he entered the dormitory, an unpleasant smell hit his face, making him almost gag.

He looked extremely ugly, frowned and complained in a low voice, "What a lousy place, the smell makes my head hurt, how can I take the exam?"

I was thinking: Did I forget to go to the temple to burn incense before the exam, so I had such bad luck?

He couldn't bear it any longer. He looked at the examiner, mustered up his courage, and said cautiously: "Sir, the smell of this dormitory is really pungent and unbearable. Could you please help me change the student's dormitory? The students will be very grateful.”

He wanted to stuff his money, but he didn’t dare. If he was accused of bribing the examiner, it would be the end.

The examination room was very quiet. When they saw someone assigned a bad number, they all looked up at Li Mingxuan, wondering who was so unlucky that he was assigned a bad number.

Chen Mufeng raised his head and saw that Li Mingxuan had been assigned a bad name. The corner of his mouth twitched, and there was some sympathy in his eyes.

But he couldn't help with this kind of thing. Zhang Shuhan also looked over there, and the corners of his mouth twitched.

I am secretly glad that I was lucky today and did not get a bad number. Otherwise, the smell would be so strong and there would be so many mosquitoes, which would really affect my performance.

Due to this movement, there was a burst of whispers and chuckles in the examination room.

Some were secretly happy, some were secretly joking, and most of them did not care about themselves and answered the questions seriously.

The examiner looked at Li Mingxuan, his eyes were as cold as the frost in winter, and he said sternly: "Take the exam or not, or go out if you don't take the exam! This dormitory has been arranged in advance, how can you change it at will?" ? Don’t disturb the order of the examination room here!”

Although Li Mingxuan was unhappy, he did not dare to say anything.

After all, it is about your own future. If you are kicked out of the exam room due to impulse, you will have to wait until next year to take the exam again.

He had no choice but to hold his nose and sit back in the stinking room. Even if he tried his best not to breathe, the disgusting stench still penetrated his nose all-pervasively. The smell was really extraordinary. Sour and refreshing.

Not long after, the examiners began to hand out questions.

The first test was on the eight-part essay, and the questions were based on selected materials from the Four Books and Five Classics.

Chen Mufeng sat in the dormitory, looking focused and serious.

The topic in front of him was a piece of cake for him, and he was already familiar with it.

He writes vigorously, answers fluently, and his handwriting is vigorous and powerful.

The examiner patrols the dormitories from time to time, observing the performance of each candidate.

At this time, the examiner suddenly stopped in front of Chen Mufeng's dormitory. Seeing that he answered questions fluently and his calligraphy had his own style, he nodded with satisfaction.

"With great literary talent, as long as you have good luck, you will become a great person."

He thought to himself, looking at the corner of the question, he landed on the three words "Chen Mufeng".

My heart moved, I didn’t say anything, I just secretly wrote down the candidate’s name.

Chen Mufeng felt a little nervous when he saw the examiner staring at him, but his face remained calm and he only answered the questions seriously.

The examiner felt a little more satisfied when he saw that he looked calm and did not appear nervous or panicked because he was staring at him.

But I didn’t stay here forever and quickly moved to another place.

Chen Mufeng breathed a sigh of relief.

On the other side, Zhang Shuhan, although his family is poor, has excellent literary talent and can answer the questions fluently.

When the examiner passed by him, he couldn't help but take another look and silently wrote down his name.

As for Li Mingxuan, he suffered a lot in that bad house.

The pungent smell constantly disturbed him. He tried to concentrate on answering the questions, but the smell was so sour that it made him gag.

While answering the question, he frowned and muttered in a low voice: "This damn stinky noise makes me dizzy and I can't see the question clearly. God really knows how to play tricks on people!"
< br>Nevertheless, he knew the importance of this exam and gritted his teeth to answer the questions.

Fortunately, he already knew these questions by heart. A few days ago, he had simulated the test questions in private with Brother Chen and Brother Zhang.

This will go smoothly, but the environment is too harsh, which really affects my performance.

There was silence in the examination room, only the rustling of the pen tip across the paper could be heard one after another.

Every candidate looked focused, sometimes frowning in thought, sometimes writing furiously.

Some stopped writing for a moment, looking up at the top of the small cell, as if they were quickly organizing words in their minds, and then quickly lowered their heads to continue writing.

At this time, Yu Yao had arrived near the examination room, but she did not go there.

Mainly because she saw Chen Xiutian standing under a big tree outside the examination room, talking in a low voice to a man dressed like a book boy.

Due to the distance, she couldn't hear clearly what the two were talking about.

She glanced around and found that there were many people waiting here. They were basically the students of the candidates and their family members who came to accompany them for the exam.

They stood or sat, or talked together in twos and threes, quietly waiting for the exam to end.
