Almighty Dad - Chapter 135
On the day when the rankings were released, Han Ze and his son arrived at the place where the rankings were released early.
The two talented gentlemen from the town school brought a group of students and their families. They arrived earlier than Han Ze and his son. They were all looking forward to it. Even if they didn’t do very well in the exam, they held a glimmer of hope. What if they were lucky enough to pass? .
Han Chengming and his son went to Han’s house almost every day to try their luck these few days. I don’t know if they were too unlucky, or they didn’t have a relationship with Han Ze’s family, and they didn’t meet Han Ze and the others at home every time. So much so that now seeing Han Ze and his son, Han Chengming and his son felt a little unhappy. Han Chengming complained: “Brother, what are you busy with all day? Can’t find anyone every day?”
“After the Shubo exam, I took him out for a stroll, and finally came to the county to buy some things to bring back. What do you want me for?” Han Ze replied lightly.
Han Chengming choked, thinking that you have a lot of money, and you are right.
Han Jixue took a step forward and looked at Han Shubo: “Shubo, are you confident that you will pass the exam?”
Han Shubo blinked and shook his head.
Han Jixue smiled: “It doesn’t matter if you don’t pass the exam this time. You are young, just take the exam next time.”
Han Shubo: “…”
He thinks he did well in the exam. But there is someone outside, he doesn’t know how others are doing in the exam, so he can’t be sure whether he can pass the exam, anyway, the ranking will be announced soon, and we will know later.
Han Ze glanced at Han Jixue, patted his son’s head, and looked at him with a smile: “Jixue is fourteen years old, right?”
Han Jixue nodded and looked at Han Ze, wondering why his uncle asked his age at this time.
Han Ze hummed, and said in a deep voice: “I remember that the court exam in this dynasty takes place twice every three years, and there will be an exam in February next year. If you fail the test for Tongsheng, then you won’t be able to take the college exam next year. That’s it. Once wasted, it will take two or three years…”
Speaking of this, he suddenly looked at Han Jixue and smiled: “Two or three years later, Jixue will be seventeen years old, should we talk about his wife, Cheng Ming?”
Han Jixue blushed, and then thought about what his uncle meant by saying this. If he failed the exam this time, then his idea of becoming a scholar before proposing marriage would not come true. How can you find a wife with the best family background without fame?
Marry a peasant girl? What help can it bring him? Clenching his fists, he will pass the exam, he will.
He raised his head to look at Han Ze, thinking of how kind his uncle had been to him when he was a child, he lowered his head, with a gloomy and sarcastic smile on his face, no matter how good he was, it was not his own, but now he has his own healthy son, so he abandoned him. …..
Han Chengming was stunned for a moment, looked at his son, and said that Jiwen might fail the exam, but Jixue has always been better than Jixue. How could Jixue fail the exam? He looked at Han Ze and said, “Brother, Don’t worry about my two boys, you should worry more about Shubo, after all, he is the youngest here.”
Younger age, less years of study, this is not an advantage.
Han Ze smiled and ignored him. He is young and has little time to study, but it doesn’t mean that he has learned less.
Han Ze didn’t speak, but the teacher in the school couldn’t help but said: “Although Shubo is young, he has solid knowledge. You can’t look down on him just because he is young.”
Han Chengming’s face was a little stiff. He didn’t expect his master to speak for Han Shubo, but he didn’t take it seriously in his heart. He didn’t underestimate it, and he knew it when the list was released. What he didn’t know was that Master was not speaking for Shubo, but telling the truth.
At Chenshi, the official sent the list on time and posted it at the place where the list was posted. As soon as the official sent left, people who were watching the list rushed over. Han Ze grabbed Han Shubo and said, “No hurry, I will read it later.”
Han Chengming gave him a disdainful glance: “Brother, you really don’t have to worry, it’s rare for Shubo to participate in the children’s class at this age.”
“Shut up.” Han Ze said impatiently.
Han Chengming smiled contemptuously, and shut up as soon as he shut up. Anyway, he felt that Han Shubo failed the exam. Thinking of this, he pulled his two sons: “Let’s go and have a look.”
As soon as I arrived, I heard someone singing the charts. The first place, Han Shubo, the second place… the second place, he couldn’t listen to it anymore, so he hurriedly asked Han Jixue: “Just now they were saying Han Shubo, I, did I hear correctly?”
Han Jixue’s face was very ugly. Of course his father heard it right, he shook his head sullenly, “Father, you heard me right, Han Shubo did get the first place in the exam, the chief of the county case!”
Gritting my teeth, the test is really… good!
If he got the first place in the exam, why would he worry about it?
Han Chengming stared and said angrily, “How could that little idiot come first in the exam?”
Han Jixue glanced at him. It doesn’t matter whether the little fool is the first in the exam, what matters is how many places he got in the exam?
He said, “Father, you are tall, hurry up and see how Jiwen and I got in the exam?”
Someone next to him laughed when he heard what he said. He was a little annoyed, and glared at the person, who didn’t bother him, and sneered, “Which one is still in the exam? I don’t know if I will pass the exam, but I’m quite confident.”
Before Han Jixue could speak, Han Chengming glared at the man unhappily, and said angrily, “What did you say?”
Han Jixue tugged at his arm, “Father, don’t pay attention to him, the important thing is to look at the list.”
Han Chengming snorted, his son said the same thing, it’s important to look at the list.
Before the father and son squeezed to the front, some classmates from the school in the town came out, saw Han Chengming and his son, and said with a smile: “Han Jixue and Han Jiwen both passed the exam.”
The father and son were overjoyed, and Han Jixue hurriedly asked, “How many exams did we get?”
“Han Jixue has one hundred and eighty people, and Han Jiwen has one hundred and sixty-nine people.”
“Are you mistaken?” Han Jixue asked with a serious face, how could he only get one hundred and eighty in the exam? It’s fine if he’s not as good as the little fool, after all, the little fool’s grades in school are obvious to all, so how could it be that he didn’t do well in the literary examination?
Han Chengming also asked from behind: “That’s right, did you read it wrong? Don’t talk nonsense.”
The classmate was also annoyed, and waved his hand: “Yes, I was wrong, you can see for yourself.”
Han Chengming and his son glared at him, and Han Chengming said: “I read it wrong, and I’m still talking nonsense, who are you!”
Classmate: “…”
Han Jiwen was stunned by the side. He didn’t think his classmate was wrong, but he couldn’t believe that he did better in the exam than his brother?
At this time, Han Ze and his son also knew that Han Shubo had won the first place in the examination. The father and son smiled at each other, and the master next to him said: “There is a rule in this court that the county chief can directly become a child student, and he doesn’t need to take the April government examination. You can just take the exam next year.”
Han Ze knew about this. He could be the first in the Shubo Examination without any real talent and learning, so it is impossible to become the county’s top case.
It’s a pity for Han Shubo, he still wants to take a few more exams to hone himself, but thinking of every exam, he has to be accompanied by his parents, and his parents are tired, so forget it, he can hone himself at any time, and his parents are tired , but no more.
A total of 200 people were admitted to the county examination this time. Twelve people from the school took the exam, and seven people passed the exam, and there was also a county case chief. The wisps of beards of the two masters are satisfied. The results of their town school in the county test this time are the best since the establishment of the school. Can they not be satisfied?
Of course, the five who failed the exam felt a little disappointed. The two masters comforted: “Don’t be discouraged if you fail the exam. Just try again next time.”
I can only comfort myself like this, what else can I do?
Han Jiwen felt a little flustered after reading the list, he suddenly laughed out loud and asked, “Father, master, did I really get one hundred and sixty-nine?”
Master was a little surprised that Han Jiwen passed the exam, they laughed and said, “Yes, I passed the exam.”
Han Chengming looked at his second son with satisfaction. He didn’t expect his second son to win him so much, and he did better in the exam than the second son.
“Hehe…hehe…” Han Jiwen smirked, “I actually did better than my brother?”
Han Jixue’s face darkened. He didn’t expect that he actually got one hundred and eighty in the exam. How could this be possible?
Han Jiwen didn’t see his brother’s face, and continued to smirk: “I finally surpassed my brother once, hehe…hehe…”
Han Jixue’s face was not only dark now, but also gloomy, and he wanted to cover his mouth.
Han Chengming didn’t think there was anything wrong with that. He liked the son who was good at studying. Han Jiwen was not as good as Han Jixue in the back-and-forth exams. Of course he would criticize him and praise Han Jixue. Now Han Jiwen is better than Han Jixue in the exam. Han Jiwen is just laughing Twice, what’s the matter?
Han Ze glanced at the three of them, father and son, and felt that there was something wrong with Han Chengming’s education, and something would happen sooner or later.
Back home, when Ge Hongbu heard that his son got the first place in the exam, he wept with joy and hugged his son, “I’m really proud of my mother…”
Han Shubo was getting older, and he was not used to being hugged by his mother. He looked at his father, blinked and asked for help. Han Ze spread his hands, expressing his helplessness. Boy, that’s your mother, bear with it.
Han Shubo: “…”
He coughed, stretched out his little hand and patted his mother’s back unnaturally, and comforted him in a stumbling manner: “Don’t, don’t cry, and in the future, I will earn my life for you…”
It’s okay if he doesn’t comfort her, but when he comforts her, Ge Hongbu cries even harder. She doesn’t count on her parents in her life, and even Han Ze changed her attitude towards her. She never thought of counting on her husband, but her son, She was born, she can count on it, and no one can say anything.
Han Shubo froze, why did he cry even more? He looked at his father for help again, and Han Ze raised his eyebrows again, expressing that there was nothing he could do to help, and whoever’s mother would coax him.
Han Shubo: “…”
He wanted to say, isn’t my mother your daughter-in-law? You shouldn’t coax?
“father……”
Han Ze interrupted him: “I just remembered that I still have something to do in my study, so I’m leaving first.”
After finishing speaking, without waiting for his answer, he strode to the study.
Han Shubo looked at his father’s back in disbelief, and kept patting his mother’s back with his small hands. He couldn’t help but think in his heart, I haven’t seen you enter the study room for a long time, what can you do?
The next day, they began to pack their things and prepare to go home. In the county examination, the official will not go to the house to report the ranking, so Han Maode and others do not know whether Han Shubo has passed the examination. It wasn’t until they came back that they found out that Han Shubo had won the first place in the exam, and there was another burst of joy.
Han Maode clapped his hands violently, “Kill a chicken, oh no, kill a pig, I want to invite the whole village to celebrate…”
Han Ze hurriedly stopped him, helplessly and amused: “Father, Shubo only took the county test, let’s wait until he wins the show, and let’s kill the pig.”
Anyway, if you don’t invite people from the village, your own family will eat too.
Han Maode was a little disappointed, there was finally a happy event at home, he could show it off, why wouldn’t his son let him show it off?
Han Ze persuaded: “Father, there is no need to be disappointed. Next year, you will be a scholar in the Shubo Examination. Let’s make sure to treat you, okay?”
Only then did Han Maode say: “When the time comes, you can’t interrupt anymore.”
Han Ze assured: “Definitely not.”
