Chapter 162 I accidentally made a joke

"...Why did Brother Chen laugh? Could it be that there is something wrong with me?"

It started raining outside. The busy streets in the past now seem much deserted. Occasionally, pedestrians walk by, and most of them are in a hurry.

In such weather, there are not many people willing to go out, and many businesses will be affected. Even the most prosperous Lion Building in Yanggu County has a decrease of nearly 40% today. There is still Erguotou, the only one in Yanggu County, and many people are coming for him, otherwise, there will probably be even fewer.

Erguotou's reputation has been established. Some people think that the wine is too strong and don't like to drink it, but that's only a few.

When most people say that it is good, even if it has some flaws, it will be selectively ignored.

Some people think that the price is too expensive, but this has little impact, because the original positioning of this wine is to take the high-end route. If it is too expensive, most of the money is not well-off.

Most wealthy families have a common problem, that is, they like to use things that show their status, and do not choose the right one, but only choose the expensive ones.

Only when things are expensive can they show their identity.

If a mud leg can drink the same wine as them, that is the greatest insult to them...

It was autumn rain outside the field, dyeing the green leaves yellow, the air seemed slightly cool and fresh, and it also brought a unique quietness and a hint of loneliness in autumn. In such a weather, it is the favorite of many literati.

In an exquisitely decorated pavilion on the second floor of the Lion Building, there are two people dressed in a dress of scholars.

The two were talking about some poems and some interesting things, and drinking some famous Erguotou at the same time. But for some reason, while drinking, one of them suddenly laughed and couldn't stop it, but it made the man opposite confused.

This man finally held back his laughter, but when he saw the wine cup in front of him, he held back and laughed.

The man opposite was laughed at by him for no reason, and he also became curious.

"Brother Yunfei, what do you think if someone is nearly forty years old and has never read poetry and books before, and now he suddenly says he wants to get a fame and fortune?"

The man held back his laughter and asked the man opposite him.

The man named Li Chang and Li Yunfei thought for a moment and said, "The wise man said that he would die in the morning and night. Not to mention how this person was in the past, it would be rare to have such ambition to study. If he only got a good fortune in the exam, he would have some..."

The man opposite continued, "If this person is less than five feet tall and has a bad face, what do you think Brother Yun Fei?"

Li Chang thought for a moment and said, "I am afraid it will be even more difficult. Although the imperial examinations are not very strict about appearance, according to Brother Yu Cheng, this person's appearance is indeed a bit unbearable. Even if he can really get a good fortune, it will be difficult if he wants to get a job in the future."

The scholar named Chen held back his smile and said, "If this person doesn't even know the necessary examination procedures, what if he can only take the state exam after a scholar in Tongsheng, what if he passes the imperial examination?"

"Hahaha……"

As soon as these words were said, even Li Chang and Li Yunfei, who had always been serious, couldn't help but laugh.

"If... now it's not the previous dynasty, how could a scholar take the exam?

This person seems to be really ignorant of the imperial examination. He doesn't even understand the matter and just thinks about taking the exam. It's really funny..."

The two laughed for a while, and Li Chang asked, "Where is such a talent? It's better to tell me about it."

Shen Ming held back his smile and pointed to the Erguotou bottle on the desk table. Li Chang didn't react for a while. He thought he was going to drink, so he reached out to get it and was about to pour it on him, but Shen Ming held it down.

He was slightly stunned and then reflected, and said with a smile: "Is that the person who wants to get fame and fortune is the Wuhan University who made this Erguotou?"

Shen Ming smiled and nodded, "That's right! A few days ago, he went to see the county master and said that he wanted to get a fame and fortune. Only those who sang the name of Donghuamen are heroes.

The county lord also found it funny, so he told him that he needed to learn those books, and said that he could recommend it to Changming Academy and study for a while..."

"Mr. County Zun is so good to this Wuhan University! If you can get so kind to Master. County Zun, most people don't have such a face!"

Li Chang was a little surprised.

Shen Ming's father was also an official in Yanggu County. He knew some things and said after hearing this:

"I heard from my father that when the county magistrate's father celebrated his birthday this year, Wuhan University went to Mengzhou with him as the brother of the capital to send a birthday gift to the old man. Somehow, he made a lot of contributions there, and it was so much that the old man liked him. Therefore, the county magistrate took good care of him..."

Li Chang knew it and nodded, "This martial arts fortune is good. I heard that marrying a wife is also awesome. There is also this unique Erguotou, and the family is not short of money. Now it can still be favored by the county magistrate. It is really not easy to say such a person."

Then he said: "It seems that soon, our Changming Academy will have another classmate."

Changming Academy is the best academy in Shiyanggu County. If you don’t have a certain talent or background, it is really not easy to enter.

When Li Chang thought that Wuhan University was so kind to the county magistrate, he would have been busy going to school, otherwise he would not use his previous relationship to look for the county magistrate.

But he didn't expect that as soon as he finished speaking, Shen Ming was already smiling and shook his head: "No, no, this Wuhan University will not become my classmates."

Li Chang was a little surprised: "Why? Such an opportunity is something that ordinary people can't afford. How could he encounter such a person...

…Is it because the court verdict disagreed?

That's right. With the character of Zhang Yuan's judging, not everyone will charge it..." Li Chang nodded and said without any hesitation.

"No, no."

Before Li Chang finished speaking, Shen Ming had already shook his head here.

"Is there something else?"

"This Wuhan University rejected the good intentions of the county magistrate, saying that when he was a child, he learned to recognize the words with the village teacher for two years, and he could read the books. He could just go home and study by himself, but he couldn't keep up with the progress in the college.

At the same time, I asked the county magistrate for the questions from the state exams in previous years, so I went back, saying that I should study hard and take the exams in early summer next year..."

Li Chang's mouth was so open that he could stuff a fist. After a while, he closed it with a click and said angrily:

"How can this person be so arrogant? He is really ignorant and fearless! A person who has only been to the village school for two years and does not even know the most basic examination system dares to make such crazy words?

What did he regard this state test questions as? Make wine or cook cakes?

From now until early summer, it is less than September. I need to see how he passed the state test!"

Originally, when Li Chang heard Shen Ming say that Wu Da was nearly forty years old and was eager to study, he still praised it, but after hearing it, he became completely angry.

Shen Ming smiled and said, "Why should Brother Yunfei be so angry? Just keep an eye on someone who doesn't know the world. Just smile when you say it. It's really not worth getting angry about such a person. Come on, let's drink this cup..."
