Although this is the case, these things happen to only a few people after all. There may be one or two people in a thousand, so the probability is still relatively small.

During these two days, apart from reading books at home, Luo Hong and his friends picked vegetables, cooked and ate together, and then cleaned up the dishes.

Although Wei Songbai and Li Yao both took the initiative to take on these tasks, Luo Hong explained to them earnestly, "I don't want us to become disabled people who don't know the difference between grains after reading a little. I also don't think such people are superior or superior to others. There is nothing wrong with us being self-reliant and self-reliant. It is also a pleasure for us to do things together."

Li Yao and Wei Songbai had long known that Luo Hong and his group had different ideas. He had previously simply thought that their customs and habits were somewhat different. After a long period of contact, he discovered that they were all different in their thinking, whether it was treating them or the servants they bought.

They still have to do things, but they won’t be beaten or scolded at will, nor will they think that they have the right to do anything.

Luo Hong customized a study time for them. They should take a break for a cup of tea every half an hour, go out for a walk and move around, and then continue studying. They should exercise for half an hour each in the morning and afternoon.

It is arranged completely according to the modern rhythm of 50 minutes of class and 10 minutes of rest. This rhythm is said to have been scientifically tested and is the most suitable time pattern for students to learn.

In the blink of an eye, it was the day of the exam. In the morning, several people packed their things early. Lin Weizhong also came to the house early, "Keyu, where are the others?"

Lin Keyu was standing at the door holding a bamboo basket. Lin Weizhong got off the carriage, walked to Lin Keyu's side, took out a package wrapped in oil paper from the basket and handed it to him, "Have breakfast, braised pork buns, and there's soy milk squeezed this morning in this bamboo tube."

"Luo Shu and the others are behind us, and they will be out soon. Dad, we need to clean up the toilet here. It's okay to pee, but it's too smelly if the feces are put into the toilet bucket. Otherwise, we have to go to the feces collection toilet on West Street. That toilet also stinks."

Lin Weizhong also knew that going to the toilet in the city was a big problem. Night watchmen were a regular job in the city. The toilets they built themselves in the village were very good. In the city, one can only follow the local customs. Their spicy hotpot was also very traditional. It took so long to get used to it.

"There is no other way. Unless we buy a large house with several entrances and our own garden land, we can build a toilet ourselves. This house is so small that there is no way to build a toilet. You are used to a good life, you little brat. Isn't this how you have lived all the way?"

Lin Keyu laughed twice. He had been living a good life recently. He started to make some requests. "Ah, it's not mainly me, it's Uncle Luo. He accidentally splashed his butt when he took a shit this morning, so he was a little late. Is he cleaning up and changing clothes inside?"

Lin Weizhong reached out and poked Lin Keyu's head again, "You are such a big mouth, you are talking about the elders."

"What's the big deal? This has happened to me before. After that, I was very careful every time I went to the bathroom. But I still get splashed sometimes."

"When it's empty, ask them to design a few toilets, with one layer on top and one layer below, and a partition in the middle to prevent splashing."

“It should have been done long ago.”

"There must be conditions for use. You think you can do it just like that."

Luo Hong came out, and several others came out as well. Luo Hong felt a little embarrassed, "Wei Zhong is here, luckily we are close, let's go over there quickly."

"Uncle Luo, don't worry, it's still early. You guys can check the things for the exam. Let's eat breakfast while we walk."

"Okay. I'm just hungry."

After Lin Weizhong gave them the basket of food, he grabbed the basket that Lin Keyu had put on the ground before and helped check it. The basket had four layers, three of which were filled with food. There were three pieces of instant noodles in the basket, and the shape was not a regular circle, but rather had shapes as shown below.

There was also a bag of instant rice mixed with dried vegetables and meat, and a box of salt. They were supposed to prepare lard, but in this weather, lard is already formed, which makes it very inconvenient to check when entering the examination room. The noodles and rice can be carefully checked and mixed. The oil is indeed difficult to check, and Wan Tongsheng suggested that they should not bring it, as they could not bring it into the examination room even if they did.

There was only one layer for writing brushes, inkstones, and inkstones. The papers for answering the exams were prepared by the examination room. Everyone had a certain amount of paper. There was no way to bring paper in.

"Okay, let's go if there's no problem!"

Holding the basket in one hand and the buns in the other, they ate them in big mouthfuls. After eating, each of them drank a bamboo tube of soy milk. Everyone burped, "This bun is so delicious! Why does it taste like this? I have never eaten buns of this flavor before. Have you ever thought about opening a bun shop?" Wan Tongsheng exclaimed in admiration after eating and drinking his fill.

Lin Weizhong was also stunned. Yes, this braised pork bun seemed to be something he had never eaten before. The buns here include meat buns, but more often vegetable buns, cabbage buns, shredded radish buns, cabbage and egg buns, pickled cabbage buns, salted vegetable buns, and sugar buns. There are many varieties, but still not as many as the modern ones. If they open a bun shop, the business should be pretty good. He knows that there are many delicious buns, so they will definitely sell well.

"We have planned to make some recently for you to try. I didn't expect you to find them delicious. It seems that if we open a bun shop, the business will definitely be good."

"Yes, yes. There is also this soy milk which is delicious. These are the special foods you brought from the northwest, right? We haven't seen them here!"

"Yeah, these are all the methods passed down from our family in our hometown."

Turning a corner, we arrived at the street in front of the county school. Turning the corner, we saw two long lines. They were all candidates waiting to be examined for the entrance examination. There were even more people standing on the side of the street. They were probably the candidates' family members. "Son, don't be nervous, just do your best. I believe you will definitely pass this time!"

"Second brother, have you checked everything? Don't miss anything. If there is anything missing, I can buy it back for you right away!"

Everyone spoke in a very low voice, and most of the words were from family members, sincerely advising the candidates to do well in the exam.

Luo Hong stood at the end of the line and started queuing. After a while, they had reached the middle and there were some more people queuing behind them.

Suddenly there was a commotion in front. Two big men in yamen uniforms carried a man dressed as a scholar out and threw him to the open space outside the door. Another man also threw a basket over there, and the contents of the basket scattered all over the ground. "I warn you again not to carry notes with you in order to cheat. Once found out, the consequences will be serious. Tian Dazhi, you have been registered and are not allowed to take the exam for five years. If you commit the same offense again, you will be disqualified from taking the exam forever and will be sent to prison for three years."

It turned out that someone was trying to cheat and was caught. Luo Hong said to the people behind him, "Be careful and be on guard against framing. Some people frame other candidates in order to eliminate a competitor. If you encounter any problems in the examination room, do not get involved. If you find anything wrong, report it to the invigilator or the yamen runner immediately."

"Got it, Uncle Luo!"
