The seven nervous days passed, and everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief. Next was the time to mark the papers. At this time, all the scholars lingered in the restaurants and brothels, completely letting themselves go. Of course, that was all done by talented men in Jiangnan, because it was not enough to have leisure, but they also had to have money.

The north has suffered many hardships, and the most lacking is money. Although Zhao Xing provides free food and accommodation for candidates in the Encao subject, he does not pay.

Therefore, as long as a restaurant enters a group of people wearing blue scholar costumes, the hotel's shopkeepers, immediately replace the jasmine-like smiley face with a donkey face as long as Changbai Mountain, and even a word of greeting is a waste of saliva.

Of course, all students in the Enca and Crafts degree programs have no spare time but no money. On the way to come, everyone received the food. After leaving the trip back, they could also drink a plate of peanuts, two taels of pork head meat, and a pot of dried old rice.

Especially Li Shouyi among them, he was simply a nouveau riche. Because he had been Li Zicheng's military advisor, Li Zicheng gave him the best reward. When this kid ran away, he took all the gold beads with him with money. Therefore, he was arrogant and sold a pearl in an antique shop, earning fifty taels of silver, and then called a group of brothers who were in distress in that disaster and entered a hotel - Bridge House.

In principle, when crossing the bridge, I no longer sell alcohol and food, because this place has almost become an auction house for antiques in Beijing. It is a daily profit of money. Xiufen's father no longer has this little money.

But the nostalgia is still there. Zhao Xing's father-in-law still missed the business he passed down from his ancestors. So he and his wife managed a bridge house in the backyard of the bridge house and went to the kitchen himself. However, now he only entertained the brothers of the Jinyiwei. That's really true. If you have money, you can get some money and don't have money, the purpose is to enjoy your appetite.

But since the Encouragement Department, some candidates who took the exam found that this cross-bridge home not only had real food, but the boss was kind, but the most important thing was that after you finished eating, you had no money in your hands quietly slipped away, and the boss didn't even raise his eyelids. He obviously refused to pay the debt, so he just thought you were air, and even the guys thought you didn't exist. Next time, next time, he would still be so enthusiastic, and it seemed that he wouldn't remember you've been there.

The reason why Dad Gao did this was that he knew that this group of people was invited by his son-in-law. According to his philanthropist, they were all subordinates of the future son-in-law and had to be taken care of.

Li Shouyi was arrogant, Wang Qingyi was arrogant, Gong Shouyi was still honest and cautious, and this image was a bit out of place with the literati uniform on him.

After entering the back hall, Li Shouyi generously slapped a ingot of fifty taels of silver in front of Dad Gao: "Preserve the venue, all the good food and rice are served."

Dad Gao glanced at the big silver: "Don't pretend to me. You know that my son-in-law is the commander Zhao Xing, who deliberately came here to flatter him, but he wanted to pretend to be stupid. He used such a clever trick to climb up the branches. Is it?

After being exposed, Li Shouyi immediately became humble and nodded and bowed: "The old man is indeed a master. This trick really cannot escape your eyes. You always look at this ingot of silver, and you don't dislike a basin of foot washing water."

Old man Gao laughed: "That's not the case. Your big silver ingot can make you 70 people eat well for three days. Go and sit down. I'll tell you to serve the food."

So the seventy-year-old candidates obediently made seven or eight tables and never dared to make loud noises again.

In order to entertain the subordinates of his future son-in-law, Gao Sheng also did his best. A group of candidates in white clothes came in. Gao Sheng immediately greeted them and politely drove them away. Gao Sheng greeted the candidates in blue clothes with a smile and let them inside.

Everyone knew it well that this was the business of Zhao Xing's family, the commander of the Jinyiwei. Although they all had a lucky attitude, they did not dare to make loud noises and make unrestrained noises. Everyone held their own tables, ordered their own delicious foods, talked quietly, and ate and drank quietly.

Li Shouyi invited these brothers who were suffering and distressed to get rid of their original stains and contact her feelings, but his ears were stuck out and he listened to others' comments on Enke this time. Fortunately, although there was no Jinyiwei as a class here, of course, who among the Jinyiwei had the courage to work here? That old Taishan is enough to let the evil people avoid strangers.

As a result, he carefully talked about the exam questions of this scientific test and expressed his proud finishing touch. However, Li Shouyi heard the same candidate on the table next to him, speaking a Shanxi accent and telling a joke: "Just in the examination room next to me, a candidate from Shanxi is in Zhejiang dialect, a real bird's song. You are in Shaanxi dialect again, half-baked, but you are applying for Shanxi, which is inconsistent. Every time you eat, you will immediately complain. Are Shanxi people not jealous? Is this all?"

The speaker was unintentional, and the listener was intentional. Li Shouyi immediately became energetic. When he turned his head to look, he found that Wang Qingyi had already stood up, held the wine glass in his hand, walked to the table of candidates, put down the wine glass, and bowed: "You are all in the same year, I am lucky to meet you." Then he said to Li Shouyi, who was confused, "I am all from the same hometown and the same year, how can I let my brothers eat such simple meals? You haven't told me to give you a few delicious food."

Li Shouyi was smart and immediately ran to Gao Sheng with a smile: "Old man, there are big fish, please hurry up and serve a few hard dishes. Maybe I will make a great contribution to the commander."

Gao Sheng put down the cigarette pouch in his hand and immediately stretched his neck and asked in a low voice: "You are smart, what big fish?"

Gao Sheng is of course happy that his son-in-law has a big case, because as long as there is a big case, his son-in-law can be promoted. This is what he watches step by step. As for now, he is a second-rank senior official, where can he be promoted? Then Gao Sheng doesn’t care.

In the blink of an eye, a few hard dishes replaced the ingredients that were picked up on the table. As the host, Wang Qingyi sat between the candidates: "Come on, drink this cup, and then let me see what kind of jokes there are."

The original pork head meat and peanuts were replaced with delicacies of mountains and seas, and the original vinegar-like rice wine became the most famous Yulin Laobaigan. The original candidates were immediately extremely happy, so they vividly told their experiences.

It turned out that in the examination room, there was an elegant candidate in the examination room next to this gentleman. The reason why this gentleman was paid attention to was because of his wealth. Not only was he gorgeous, but he also brought extremely exquisite food. At the same time, what was even more ridiculous is that he was proficient in many languages, no, in many languages. Shaanxi, Shanxi, and Zhejiang dialect, which was just open and authentic. But according to him, he was from Taiyuan, Shanxi, but he was very jealous.

Shanxi people are not jealous? This is like an alien is as weird as an octopus.

So, Wang Qingyi and Li Shouyi looked at each other, and after asking about the addresses of the candidates, they hurriedly bid farewell without saying goodbye.
