Seeing that Lin Yanchao was so happy to hear the family letter, all his friends smiled. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
"I have been in Beijing for less than a year, and I miss my beautiful wife and concubine at home!"
"Haha, Zong Hai doesn't need to explain to us."
"It's a hero sad to pass the beauty pass."
Seeing that all his friends were teasing, Lin Yanchao smiled and said, "Okay, everyone is going to make fun of it, come into the house and say." ā
At this moment, the climate is cold, there are cotton curtains hanging in front of the house, as soon as everyone enters the house, Lin Yanchao asked Zhanjin to bring more charcoal basins, and everyone suddenly felt that the cold outside had decreased a lot.
Chen Yinglong looked at it and said, "Brother Zonghai, you are not very spacious, you don't even have a small building, why bother to be here." ā
On the side, Ye Xianggao said: "Brother Chen doesn't know, we are in the south, so we all live upstairs, but when we arrive in Beijing, the weather in the north is cold, so we have to sleep in the fire pit." ā
Chen Yinglong suddenly realized.
Weng Zhengchun said: "Having said that, but Zonghai, why not rent a better house, or a guest house." ā
After Lin Yanchao brought a few brocade sticks to several people, he said: "My generation of scholars, when you are poor and happy, Liu Yuxi didn't say that Si is a burrow, but I Dexin, this time you come, there is even more talk and laughter, and there is no vain." ā
Everyone smiled and said, "Brother Zong Hai said it well." ā
At that moment, several people took off their clothes and hats, and put their hands on the charcoal basin to roast their hands.
Lin Cai sighed: "After the autumn, we came all the way to the north, the weather is getting colder and colder, we have not yet arrived in Linqing by boat, the canal is frozen, and we will not wait for any further, so we will turn to land travel, and hurry up to arrive in Beijing." Fortunately, I didn't miss the exam date! ā
Chen Yinglong also said with palpitations: "Yes, when the canal is frozen, we are worried about this, I heard that the spring is in February, I am afraid it will be colder than this day, and I am afraid that it will not be easy to take the test at that time." Especially for those of us Southerners. ā
Lin Yanchao knew that it was the Xiaoice River period at this time, the weather was cold, and then thought of the meeting in more than a month, how to deal with it then? This is also a conundrum.
But at the moment, Lin Yanchao didn't care about so much, and Zhanming instructed: "Quickly instruct the shopkeeper to clean up a table of good wine and food, and I want to entertain a few friends." ā
After speaking, Lin Yanchao said to everyone: "The taste of Beijing is a little heavier, and we southerners don't care about it, but fortunately, the chef in this hall is fine." Cook a hand of local dishes, the taste is authentic, everyone is thousands of miles away from home, you can satisfy your hunger a little. ā
When everyone heard this, they all clapped their hands and said: "That's good, I finally know why Zong Hai refuses to change places, it turns out that he is here to satisfy his appetite!" ā
At that moment, Zhanming went down to let the shopkeeper prepare the wine and food, and everyone said goodbye to each other.
Lin Yanchao inquired about the news of several friends, and Ye Xianggao was removed from the township test this year. Chen Yinglong, Gong Zinan. Chen Yiyu is all off the list. In addition, there are two talents in the Wenlin Society, who have also been admitted to the Juren.
As for the rest of the friends, Chen Xingguiyuan tried to get the sixth, and he was already studying in the house, and participated in this year's township examination, but unfortunately failed. There are also Huang Biyou and Yu Qingzhou, who have failed the three college tests. is still a child, and seeing so many people stuck in the government test, it can be seen that this level is really sad.
However, Lin Yanchao was still happy for him when he heard Chen Xinggui go to school.
Among them, what surprised and delighted Lin Yanchao even more was his disciple Xu Huobo.
Xu Huobo participated in this year's children's examination. Although the results are not obvious, they are all passed, entered the county school of Min County, entered the student staff, and also passed the record to obtain the qualification for this year's township examination, and after completing the seven township examinations, they almost entered the sub-list.
Lin Yanchao listened to Xu Huobo's good performance in the exam, and felt that his hard work was not in vain, and his three years of teaching were not in vain.
Lin Cai also quipped: "If the apprentices are selected in the township examination this year, they will have to come with us to catch the exam, and then your master and apprentice will go to the exam together, which is another good story." ā
Lin Yanchao shook his head with a smile, he suddenly remembered his teacher Lin Chengyi, he was studying in Beijian at the moment, and he had been working for three years, so he must have to go to the meeting with him this year.
As for Tao Wangling, another disciple who worshiped him, he returned to Shaoxing.
This year, I am also going to participate in the Shaoxing Boys' Examination. Although Tao Wangling's foundation is more solid than Xu Huobo, Shaoxing is a strong county in the imperial examination, and Lin Yanchao doesn't know if he can stand out.
Everyone talked about it, and soon the shopkeeper arrived.
The shopkeeper personally brought a few guys to Zhang Luo, all kinds of platters, side dishes, and a pot of antique soup.
The so-called antique soup is now a hot pot, and when the food was put into hot water, it made a gurgling sound so it was called antique soup.
The antique soup is made of white iron pot, charcoal is placed in the pot, and the mutton, fish fillet, frozen tofu have just been sliced on one side, and a pot of green and red wine from the hometown is put on the side of the small stove to heat, and the aroma of the wine is overflowing.
At this moment, the cold wind is howling outside, and the snow is constantly drifting.
The bone broth boiled in the bone broth was bubbling with white bubbles, and everyone used chopsticks to pick up the meat and dip it in, and after shabu-shabu, they dipped it in the sauce and ate it in their mouths, and the chill on their bodies disappeared immediately.
Lin Cai couldn't help but read Bai Juyi's poem: "Green ants make new wine, red clay small stove." If you want snow in the evening, you can drink a glass of nothing. ā
Several people stretched out their thumbs and said in unison: "This poem is appropriate for the occasion." ā
Everyone is eating antique soup here, and the shopkeeper over there will send hot dishes such as freshly cooked chicken, duck and goose meat.
Everyone was eating and chatting, and several people were drunk.
Lin Yanchao was reading a letter from home on the kang.
Lin Gao wrote a letter telling him that everything was fine at home, although after he went to Beijing, his hometown, and the township came to the door one after another, saying that he hoped that he could connect with the three yuan. But Lin Gao said in his letter that there have been so many Xie Yuan throughout the ages, and there is only one person who can connect the three yuan. Therefore, in the letter, he asked himself not to be burdened with pressure because of the words of others, and even if he studied hard, even if he was admitted to a third-class jinshi and went home, it was enough to glorify his ancestors. Even if you don't win, it's nothing, Xie Yuan hasn't taken the test once or twice, and there are many people.
This is written by Lin Gao, and the other is from the uncle. The uncle told himself that after Lin Yanshou took the county examination for the nth time, he finally passed the test with a score of ninety-five crane tails.
In order to celebrate Lin Yanshou's passing of the county test, the uncle finally justifiably operated it at home this time and celebrated. It's a pity that the uncle's family was only happy for two months, and Lin Yanshou failed in the government test without accident.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but laugh when he saw it, and there was another letter from Lin Qianqian.
In Lin Qianqian's letter, the first half of the article is all about the family's shortcomings, firewood, rice, oil and salt, such as how much money is in the family, how much is the expense, and how many people are in contacts.
When I got to the back, I said a little bit about not thinking about it, but what I said was very subtle, only the word 'Nianjun' at the end of the letter revealed a little bit of heart.
Lin Yanchao couldn't help but smile when he saw the letter, and felt a warmth in his heart.
As for the last letter, it was from his teacher Lin Yan. (To be continued.) )
