What is a middle-aged young man? He is extremely self-righteous and does not know what to give up.

The third son of the Li family was only depressed for a moment of defeat, and then continued to compete with Zhu Ping'an with high morale, throwing out the very rare problems he thought were difficult for Zhu Ping'an.

For example, riddles: "Go up the head and lower the head, go up the head and upper the head. Go to the middle at both ends, and go to the middle at both ends."

Zhu Ping'an has seen these riddles online for a long time, so he can give the answer without thinking about it.

"It is 'zhi', because the upper part of 'zhi' is the lower part of 'go', the lower part of 'zhi' is the upper part of 'go'. The middle part of 'zhi' is the two ends of 'go', the two ends of 'zhi' are the two ends of 'go', and the two ends of 'zhi' are the middle of 'go'." Zhu Ping'an also pretended to think for a moment before giving the answer calmly, and explained the answer.

However, this was far beyond the expectation of the third brother of the Li family, so the third brother of the Li family racked his brains to think of several questions to make it difficult for Zhu Ping'an. Unfortunately, no problem could stump Zhu Ping'an.

Finally, the third brother of the Li family had to come up with a question that was almost rogue: "If you jump into a big pit, it is very deep and there is no one inside, the wall of the pit is very slippery and strong, you can't scratch it with your hands, and you can't climb up with your bare hands, but do you have any tools, ropes, knives, etc. There is no one outside the pit, and there is nothing inside the pit, what do you do?"

The third brother of the Li family removed all the favorable aspects that could be imagined, and after saying that, he looked at Zhu Ping'an with great satisfaction.

"Can you swim?" Zhu Ping'an asked lightly.

"There is no water in the pit, I just said. There is nothing in the pit." The third son of the Li family emphasized again.

"I can use my hand to break a hole in my head and let the water flow out. Then I can swim and float and come out of the pit." Zhu Ping'an said seriously.

The third son of the Li family shook his head like a rattle. "How could there be so much water in his head!"

"Why should I jump down when I don't have water in my head?" Zhu Ping'an glanced at the third son of the Li family and said lightly.

The third child of the Li family

In the end, it was the black-bellied girl Li Shu who moved out of the name of Li Dabao and drove the third child of the Li family out of the study.

"Thank you, Miss Li, for helping the siege." Zhu Ping'an bowed and thanked the black-bellied girl. If she hadn't driven her brother out of the study, his brother would probably have to make some strange things to make things difficult for him.

"Narcissism, who has helped you solve the situation? I'm just afraid that my third brother will ruin my book when he gets angry. Hum." The black-bellied girl looked up at the sky forty-five degrees. Finally, she snorted arrogantly.

It's really a problem girl.

I borrowed two more books from the Li family. Because Enko was approaching, I put the idea of ​​reading miscellaneous books aside. The two books I borrowed this time were books related to the provincial examination. To be precise, one policy theory and the other eight-legged essays.

Everyone in the family was excited about Enko's news. As for whether Zhu Ping'an could pass the exam, it was not the consideration for his family. Anyway, he was excited about Enko.

Early the next morning, Zhu Ping'an walked from home to his mentor's house in the clothes made by his teacher's wife.

The clothes made by the teacher's wife are very suitable. The clothes are made of Zibo cloth as a four-slit shirt, with vermilion edgings, and the wide and large movement is very convenient. The four-slit shirt has no belt. There are several straps on both sides, but they are tied.

The teacher's wife also made a pair of shoes. The standard name of the shoes is Cailu. It is also colorful shoes. The pair of shoes on Zhu Ping'an's feet are red-edged shoes. They look a bit like embroidered shoes, but there are no embroidery. It feels strange.

The villagers I met on the road looked at Zhu Ping'an with a strange look when greeting him, and was puzzled. Zhu Ping'an explained that the reason he dressed like this was to go to Master's house and give a crown ceremony.

Crown ceremony?

The villagers don’t understand what kind of crowning ceremony is not a crowning ceremony, but the villagers don’t pay attention to this. Most villagers feel this way, and it’s not that Mr. Sun wants to go to his house to get the crowning ceremony.

Mr. Sun's house was still the same as usual, and the door was not closed at night, so Zhu Ping'an walked straight in.

"My teacher is early." Zhu Ping'an entered the door and looked at Master Sun, and bowed from a distance.

"Yeah, it's not bad." Mr. Sun was tidying up tables and chairs in the yard, placing tables, chairs, wine cups, hats, headscarves, etc. When he saw Zhu Ping'an coming early in the morning, he nodded with satisfaction.

Zhu Ping'an wanted to come forward to help, but was pulled into the room by the teacher's wife who heard the sound. Without saying a word, Zhu Ping'an changed her hairstyle again. Well, she was very shameful. The two sides of her forehead were painted in two buns by her wife, forming a ring shape, and the teacher's wife also tied it with a vermilion brocade ribbon to form a "王".

When the teacher's wife changed Zhu Ping'an's hairstyle, guests came to Master Sun's house. They were all old friends of Master Sun, including two students who worked as a security guard during the examination in the school. About seven or eight people came, carrying pens, ink, paper and inkstone as the gifts for Zhu Ping'an's gifts.

They were all invited by Master Sun to watch the ceremony.

Zhu Ping'an was called to the gate by Master Sun, facing east to welcome Master Sun's friend. Master Sun smiled and greeted his friends. Master Sun bowed to him. Master Sun's friend looked at Zhu Ping'an and nodded with satisfaction. Then he exchanged a few greetings with Master Sun at the gate, and then followed Master Sun into the yard.

The teacher's wife made a pot of tea, put it with the tea cup on the table outside the yard, and turned back to the room. Zhu Ping'an picked up the teapot, poured the tea cups and put it on the table.

Mr. Sun's friend entered the yard and washed his hands in the basin of water, then sat down to watch the ceremony.

Zhu Ping'an's crown ceremony officially began.

"A student, if Zhu Ping'an, the son of Zhu Shouyi in Xiahe Village, grows up, will be crowned with the title of today. Please..." Mr. Sun bowed to his friend who was watching the ceremony and spoke.

"Praise." Mr. Sun's friend nodded and praised.

Then, Master Sun took the turban from the table, walked to Zhu Ping'an, and exhorted with a serious expression: "On the good month, the first day of the auspicious month, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the year, the first day of the

"Thank you, my teacher." Zhu Ping'an knelt down to thank his teacher.

Master Sun took the opportunity to put the turban on Zhu Ping'an's head, and then said to Zhu Ping'an in a gentle voice, "You go to the room and find your master's wife."

Zhu Ping'an nodded, stood up, bowed to the person watching the ceremony, and walked into the room.

"Come here, go to the bedroom to change these clothes." The teacher's wife smiled kindly and put a pack of clothes in Zhu Ping'an's hands.

"Thank you, Master's wife." Zhu Ping'an took it and expressed his gratitude to Master's wife with a silly smile.

"Silly child, why are you polite to your teacher's wife?" The teacher's wife smiled and urged Zhu Ping'an to go to the bedroom to change clothes quickly.

The ceremony was quite trivial, and the clothes needed to be changed. When he walked to the bedroom, Zhu Ping'an looked at the clothes given by his master's wife. It was a dark set of clothes, a brocade belt, and a pair of black cloth shoes. Zhu Ping'an took off the four-slit shirt on his body and changed into the clothes given by his master's wife.

After changing his clothes and thanking his wife, Zhu Ping'an walked into the yard again.

Master Sun asked Zhu Ping'an to stand in the yard for a while before the next process began. After Zhu Ping'an stood for a while, Master Sun took a hat from the table, walked to Zhu Ping'an, and exhorted again: "Auspicious moon ruled the Chen, Shen'er's patronage, he was cautious and arrogant, Shushun Erde, Meishou Yongnian, and enjoyed Hu's blessings."

Zhu Ping'an knelt down to thank his teacher, Master Sun put the hat on Zhu Ping'an, and then asked Zhu Ping'an to find his wife in the room.

The ceremony was so troublesome, Zhu Ping'an muttered in his heart.

But I still follow the teacher's order and walk to the room again. (To be continued...)
