More than 400 candidates surrounded the county school and were filled with water.

Chen Xi was small and squeezed around the crowd, unable to tell the direction clearly. He could only grab Shen Yongzhuo's back and rub forward.

Before I got closer, I heard the words "I'm here", "I'm out of the circle" or "waiting for the next year".

In the crowded crowd, Chen Xi didn't remember how many people rubbed against the arms and smelled the body odor of many people. Finally, he grabbed Shen Yongzhuo's clothes and squeezed into the front row.

There are two circles inside and outside the case, but the words on it are not big, plus they are all A, B, C and 1,23, and there is no specific name of the candidate. It is really difficult to find out about yourself.

Shen Yongzhuo and Chen Xi were like him. After arriving in the front row, the first thing he looked at was the examination room and seat numbers of the twenty people in the inner circle of the main board.

The case is not divided into the first case. The twenty people in the inner circle have half of the words that are reversed, so you need to look at it with your head tilted.

Chen Xi looked at it and soon found the words "A, No. 21" in the upside down words directly below the inner circle, which was his seat number.

Chen Xi didn't make any noise, so he immediately went to help Shen Yongzhuo find it.

After searching for a while, he finally found Shen Yongzhuo's seat number on the second piece of paper in the case.

Shen Yongzhuo's mood changed again from losing to a little surprise. Although he had not passed the county examination, at least he had the opportunity to be punished and re-over, and he did not lose the possibility of admission.

"Seventh brother, have you found your name? I see that there are many people on it, and I didn't pay attention to it in detail just now." Shen Yongzhuo found his seat number and finally smiled on his face. He also began to care about Chen Xi's situation.

Chen Xi raised his head and smiled embarrassedly. Just when he was wondering whether he should attack Shen Yongzhuo. Shen Yongzhuo said, "Brother, please help you find it again."

Shen Yongzhuo started looking for it from behind. At first, he was very serious, but by the time of the final decision, he was already a little careless. Because Chen Xi's name happened to be under the circle, the font was reversed, Shen Yongzhuo might think that Chen Xi could not pass the scene. The inner circle of the final decision was just scanned and did not look carefully.

Finally, Shen Yongzhuo said in a slightly regretful tone: "Seventh brother, you are still young, and there will always be a chance in the future."

After saying that, he quickly took Chen Xi home. The second recruitment exam will be held tomorrow, and Shen Yongzhuo seemed a little anxious.

After coming out of the crowded crowd at the entrance of the county school, many students cursed and said that they were good at learning. If they could not be admitted, it was the loss of the court and the people.

There are all people with sadness and joy, and there is also an old Tongsheng in his forties. He finally found his name in the inner circle of the case and was kneeling on the ground to thank the world.

When Chen Xi passed by, he looked carefully. Isn’t this the Liu Laoer who was criticized by several yamen runners when he entered the venue?

"Oh my God, I finally have the opportunity to become a scholar. My life's hard work is worth it." Liu Lao Er knelt there and howled loudly, as if he had already become a scholar.

Those who passed the exam were happy. Those who failed the exam might wait for the next day to take the exam, or study hard and wait for the next year.

There are scholars who failed the exam and have a few more money on them, so they are not in a hurry to go back to their hometown. They find a restaurant before nightfall and buy two pots of wine to take a hangover. Especially those candidates who are over 30 years old, this lonely and lonely mood is particularly prominent.

In the past, Chen Xi always felt that what Fan Jin mentioned in the imperial examination was too extreme. It was a bit incredible that he could drive people crazy if he passed the imperial examination. But when he was truly in this era when only the imperial examination could change his social status, he saw that scholars worked hard in their lives just to be able to enumerate their titles in the imperial examination field, and that feeling of being tired of fame and fortune was very deep.

"Not good. Someone has jumped into the river, go and have a look."

I don’t know who called out, but suddenly the Xixi River became lively.

Chen Xi thought that it was not because the sky fell if he couldn't pass the exam. It would be so extreme. When Chen Xi and Shen Mingjun rushed to the river, they realized that the person who jumped into the river was not the candidate, or even a man, but a woman.

"Wife, why are you so unhappy? If you can't pass the exam this year, you can wait for the next year."

It turned out that it was not the scholar who fell into the river by himself, but his wife felt that there was no hope for the future, so she jumped into the river by falling into the river by grief.

The man was already in the water, and the scholar was just crying by the river and was useless. His wife jumped into the river and didn't even look for a bamboo pole. She knew that she was chattering there, which made people feel upset.

"Hurry up, who will hurry to go down the river to catch people? How many people are deep in the water? If you don't find a way, you won't be able to save them."

In February, the ice and snow melt and the water temperature is very low. Who dares to risk his life to jump into the river to save people at this time? Although Chen Xi could swim in his previous life, he had died of naughty death in this life because of a naughty child, so he did not have the chance to learn swimming. Moreover, he is a child. Even if he can swim, it is not very wise to go into the water to save people.

Fortunately, at this time, a boat came over the river. With the help of the fisherman, he finally fished the woman who jumped into the river from the river.

The woman was also quite beautiful, but her clothes were extremely worn, and she had colorful patches in many places. She looked only 20 or 30 years old, and she was a very quiet woman.

After getting to the shore, there were crowds of people surrounding him, but no one dared to go up and help.

Nowadays, men and women are very careful, and women's chastity is more important than anything else. There are not many women on the street, and the joyfulness of watching the fun by the river are all men. The woman lies on the rocky slope by the river, her lips are pale, and she doesn't move. Her man is a scholar and doesn't know how to rescue her. She just yells there, as if she can wake up people by just talking.

"Hey, press your aunt's body quickly to see if she is still angry?" someone reminded.

The scholar then suddenly realized, reached out to the woman's breath, and his crying voice suddenly rose octave: "My wife, how can I live with my little girl after you go?"

Chen Xi thought to himself that marrying a scholar's husband is equivalent to suffering for half of his life. In addition, he has not given birth to a son and has no hope in the future, so he thought of suicide!

Chen Xi watched the man who jumped into the river and was anxious. It was normal for the person who jumped into the river to lose his breath just after he was rescued. Water enters his lungs and the trachea is blocked by the water. It would be strange if he could breathe. From the time when a woman fell into the water to the time she was rescued, it was not long. Even if she fainted due to lack of oxygen, she could still be rescued. But the most important thing is time. If she dies for a long time, she will become a real death.

Chen Xi walked over without hesitation, picked up the woman's wrist, and his pulse was weak and almost gone.

The scholar shouted, "What are you doing, little kid?"

"stand up!"

Chen Xi doesn't talk nonsense to such a useless scholar. If he sits and watches a life disappear in front of him, he will feel guilty. But as his man, it is inappropriate to give a heart-to-mouth pressure to a woman.

"You! Press your wife's heart and press continuously, hurry up!" Chen Xi almost roared at the scholar.

"The virtue of a gentleman"

The scholar was about to talk nonsense, Chen Xi said angrily: "No matter how gentleman is, your wife will die? Is the virtue of a gentleman important, or is the life of your wife important?"

The scholar was a little stunned, and then came over as he said, Chen Xi pressed the ground with both hands and made a look for the poor scholar to show.

The poor scholar tried to press it a few times, and water flowed out of the woman's mouth, but because of the long absence of oxygen, he did not wake up for the time being.

"Blow in your wife's mouth!"

"What did you say?"

This time the scholar was a little angry and wanted to jump up and fight Chen Xi desperately, but he just squatted on the shore and shouted for a while, his legs were already numb, and he fell down as soon as he stood up.

At this time, a little girl followed her mother to the river to wash clothes. Chen Xi went up and pulled the girl over and taught her carefully. The girl put her mouth on her mouth and started to blow air in the woman's mouth, but where did the little girl's house have the strength to blow air into the woman's lungs?

Chen Xi wished he could speak in person, but he did not dare to act rashly in front of everyone. Nowadays, a woman's chastity is more important than her life. If he really wants him to do something rude, let alone a woman's family, even the neighbors will not spare him.

After working for a while, the woman finally coughed and came back to life, her face was red.

The poor scholar was overjoyed and hurried over to help his wife up. After a while, the couple hugged each other and cried, which made the onlookers beside him shook their heads and sigh.

Even if Chen Xi came up with a way to save the woman, the poor scholar did not even say thanks. In his eyes, his wife should be "godly to see her" and had nothing to do with Chen Xi.

After almost a while, Shen Yongzhuo urged Chen Xi to go home. Chen Xi returned to the river bank and happened to see County Magistrate Ye standing among the crowd watching the fun.

Chen Xi and Shen Yongzhuo both recognized Ye Mingsu and were about to bow, Ye Mingsu waved his hand, meaning that he didn't need to be too polite. He nodded at Chen Xi and turned directly toward the yamen.

Chen Xi felt that Ye Mingsu had a bit of accommodating people. Officials from a capital family should not know the suffering of the people. However, since his tenure, Ye Mingsu got along well with the gentry, merchants and the people in the city, which has to be said to be an anomaly.

"The magistrate recognizes us?"

Shen Yongzhuo just saw Ye Mingsu smiling at him, with a little surprise on his face.

"We took the exam before, and he was the chief examiner, maybe he had a chance to meet him."

Chen Xi didn't know what to say, but he had a lot of relationship with Ye Mingsu as he was not as good as his former county magistrate Han Xie. After all, Han Xie was transferred from Ninghua County to Nanzhili to serve in Nanzhili by relying on his ability to control the plague. Lin Zhongye, who was directly favored by Han Xie, belonged to the Li Dongyang faction. Now that Li Dongyang has entered the cabinet, Han Xie is equivalent to rising to the top.

The two brothers had not returned home to report the news, and the old and young people were waiting anxiously in the yard. When the two of them came back, everyone gathered around, and Li and Wang were all focused on Shen Yongzhuo.

"Dalang, how about it? Have you passed the exam?"

Shen Yongzhuo smiled bitterly: "Grandmother, mother, I failed the first game, but I didn't fail the exam. There are still two and three games to take the exam again."

Although Wang was a little disappointed when he heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief: "Whether it is good, there are only twenty people in the first game, and there are still thirty people behind it. After this game, there are not many people left, and the chances of passing the exam have increased greatly. Isn't it, mother?"

At this time, Li did not dare to undermine his grandson's confidence, and immediately nodded and said, "Dalang, what is your mother saying? Which day is the second exam?"

Because my family thought that Shen Yongzhuo must have passed the first exam before, and he didn't even pay attention to when the second exam was taken.

"tomorrow."

Shen Yongzhuo stammered.

"Then hurry up and go into the room to prepare. While it's still dark, you can study hard and learn quickly."

Yi's family selectively forgot Chen Xi, and there was not even a person who asked Chen Xi if he didn't pass the exam.

When Li and Wang accompanied Shen Yongzhuo into the main hall, Chen Xi sighed. It turns out that children have no human rights.
