Grandma Xiang used the moonlight to see the pale face of Fu Bao. She felt heartbroken and burst into tears. Her Fu Bao, her little granddaughter, had to work so hard for the Xiang family.

He turned around and walked to the stove, lit the fire, and boiled a large pot of hot water. First, he scrubbed Fu Bao's face and body, and then put on dry clothes.

Then I took out a small piece of pork, cut it into minced meat, stir-fried it in a pan, and then took out the rice and cooked it into a thick white porridge. I added a little salt, minced meat and chopped green onion, and it was a delicious bowl.

This is how the meat porridge comes out of the pot.

He brought the meat porridge to Fu Bao's room. Fu Bao was really hungry. He smelled the aroma in his nose and couldn't help but open his eyes. Sure enough, he saw his grandma sitting next to him with steaming hot porridge.

"Nai, I'm hungry." Fu Bao said in a milky voice.

"Nai knows, so she cooked meat porridge for you. Come on, grandma will feed you." Grandma Xiang picked up Fu Bao, let her sit on her lap, and then started feeding her porridge.

One bite after another, the bowl of meat porridge reached the bottom in a blink of an eye. Grandma Xiang took out a handkerchief and wiped Fu Bao's mouth clean, and said distressedly:

"Bao, now we have money and food at home, you are still a baby, you just need to have fun, you know."

Fu Bao blinked his eyes and looked at his grandma with a smile, feeling warm in his heart. However, she chose to be reincarnated in order to practice and become a Buddha. Where can she retreat? Only by continuous efforts can she move forward.

"Sleep well, do you want grandma to know if you need anything?" Grandma Xiang asked Fu Bao to sleep, covered her with a quilt, then turned around and closed the door, returning to her room.

There was no one in the house, so Grandma Xiang knew where the old man had gone. She opened the window and saw a familiar shadow walking around in her yard.

Grandma Xiang exhaled, took off her shoes and lay down. With Fu Bao at home, her life was getting better and better. If that day really comes, she must take back everything that belongs to her.

Mr. Xiang was born in a poor family and did not know the lychee tree at all. Even though he passed the Tongsheng test and read countless books, he still could not recognize what kind of fruit tree the tree in front of him was.

Early the next morning, Grandma Xiang went to the backyard and discovered that what Fu Bao brought back was actually a lychee tree. Looking at the bare lychee tree in front of her, Grandma Xiang knew that the Xiang family was going to get rich.

But equally, if these lychee trees were seen by rich and powerful people, the Xiang family would probably not be able to keep them, and they would most likely lose their lives.

Grandma Xiang hurriedly went to find Fu Bao. She wanted Fu Bao to remove the lychee tree and leave at most one lychee tree until it would bear fruit in June or July next year, so that her family could satisfy their craving.

But Fu Bao shook her head. She had spiritual space. As soon as the lychee tree matured, she could hide the fruits and take out a few when she wanted to eat.

Grandma Xiang knew what Fu Bao was capable of. Seeing that the little girl was confident, she let her go. Last night, so many lychee trees came and went, and they must have disappeared as soon as they wanted.

At the beginning of February, Ping An came back. He told Mr. Xiang that this month was auspicious. Xiang Chu and Xiang Qian were going to take the county examination, so they didn't come back from their one-day monthly rest.

Mr. Xiang had been thinking about this all the time. He said hello to Grandma Xiang and followed Ping An to the county in an ox cart early the next morning.

Fu Bao became excited and wanted to take the county test. He wanted to follow his grandfather to the county to see how his brothers were doing in heaven. Xiang Qian didn't need to look at it. The chosen stars were mainly his uncle and Xiang Chu.

But she couldn't bear to leave the mountains. After all, there was enough spiritual energy in the mountains, and it was not so convenient to go to the county town. Amid Fubao's hesitation, Mr. Xiang had already left the house.

Mr. Xiang would go to the gate of the academy every day to chat with the old janitor. After talking and talking, Mr. Xiang got a lot of inside information that he didn't know before, but Mr. Xiang understood that even if he knew it, he would not be able to change it.

The days passed like this, and Mr. Xiang finally waited until the door of the private school opened, and a group of people came out under the leadership of Tian Jinshi and several wives.

This group of people includes people of all ages from teenagers to middle-aged and elderly people. Among them are their grandsons Xiangqian and Xiangchu, and Jixiang is also behind them.

When several people saw Mr. Xiang, Ping An and his sister-in-law in the crowd, they all bowed slightly, and then followed the husbands towards the county government office with serious expressions.

The county examination is arranged in the county government office, with the county magistrate presiding over it and serving as the examiner. Moreover, you have to be searched when entering the county government office, and you are not allowed to bring anything that is not allowed.

Several people submitted their information and then entered their seats to answer the questions. This exam was divided into three sessions. In the first session, there were two four-character essays and one five-character and six-rhyme poem. When writing, you should pay attention to the format and word count. It should not exceed

Seven hundred words.

In the second session, there will be one essay on four books, one essay on sexual theory or the Classic of Filial Piety, one essay on rhymes and rhymes, and one essay poem in five characters and eight rhymes.

The third session mainly tests scriptures, poems, and erotic essays. Each examination is held every three days, and only those who passed the previous examination are eligible to participate in the next session.

On the afternoon of the ninth day, Tongsheng's county examination finally ended. However, the rule at that time was not that if you passed the county examination, you would be a Tongsheng. Instead, you had to go to the government office to take the government examination. Only if you passed the government examination would you be a real Tongsheng.

Of course there are exceptions. If you get first place in the county examination or prefectural examination, you will also be the first in the county or prefectural examination. As long as there are no other problems, you will not need to participate in the subsequent prefectural examinations and hospital examinations, and you will directly obtain the title of scholar.

That's why Ma Yuanwai was so anxious when he learned that Tian Jinshi had accepted another student. After all, if you get the head of the case, you can not only be directly promoted to a scholar, but also have some other privileges, such as not having to kneel down when going to court, and being able to do so at weddings and funerals.

Eating at the same table as the officials.

Tian Jinshi and his concubines gave the students who had finished the exam a holiday and asked them to return to the academy to continue working and studying in three days, because the next exam was in Fucheng, and only by passing the Fucheng exam could they become real Tongsheng.

Xiangqian and Jixiang refused, but Xiangchu wanted to go home, but seeing his brother and uncle not wanting to waste every second, he had no choice but to follow them back to the academy.

Half a month later, each student's test scores and rankings will be posted on the dragon and tiger wall in front of the county government office. Mr. Ping An and Xiang were waiting at the front of the dragon and tiger list early.

"Dad, the number one in Xiangqian is the county's top criminal case."

Ping An's sharp eyesight saw the black words on the red list just as the officer posted it.

Mr. Xiang: "..."

The first place, the head of the case, there is a scholar in the Xiang family, and the ancestral graves of the Xiang family are smoking.
