Rebirth: I Raise a Husband in Another World
Chapter 75 Trying to Cover Up
But Hua Jian thought that Lin Han was building a new house in Xinghua Village, and he would probably live in Xinghua Village for a long time in the future.
Lin Han's home is very close to Hua Jian's home. Even if Hua Jian gets married, it is not difficult for her to go home. She can go back many times a day.
As Hua Jian was thinking, a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts and he withdrew his gaze from the distance.
He couldn't help but be shocked. He had just confirmed that he liked Lin Han, but he had already thought so much about it. It was really incredible. It seemed that Lin Han had a great influence on him.
Chen Wenjin was still knocking on the door and calling out, "Brother Huajian, please open the door quickly. I'm Wenjin. Brother Huajian, please open the door quickly. I'm Wenjin."
Hua Jian shook his head and stopped thinking about Lin Han. He went to open the door for Chen Wenjin with the book in his hand without even turning a page.
The door lock of Huajian’s dormitory is designed like this: it is locked from the outside and can be opened with a key.
There is a latch inside the dormitory. If both of you go out, you can lock the door with the latch and open it with the key when you come back.
If there is one person in the dormitory, they will insert the latch inside. At this time, if another person wants to come in, he cannot open the door with the key.
You have to knock on the door and let the person inside move the latch before the door can be opened, so Chen Wenjin knocks on the door instead of directly using the key to open it.
Chen Wenjin knocked for a long time before Hua Jian came to open the door. He couldn't help but wonder what Hua Jian was doing that he opened the door so late.
It’s no wonder he had this idea, because Hua Jian usually reads at this time, and he quickly came to open the door when he heard the sound.
The fact that he opened the door so late this time made Chen Wenjin suspicious.
As soon as he entered the door, he asked, "Brother Huajian, what were you doing just now? Why didn't you come to open the door for so long?"
The matter was still uncertain, and Hua Jian didn't want to make a big fuss, so he could only find an excuse to get away with it.
Hua Jian pretended to be calm and said in a nonchalant tone, "I didn't do anything. I was just engrossed in thinking about today's policy paper."
After hearing this, Chen Wenjin showed an expression of astonishment, and said with admiration and surprise: "I knew that besides studying, what else could make Brother Huajian so obsessed?
Brother Huajian, you are amazing. You have been working hard for ten years. You will definitely pass the exam next February."
If you ask why Hua Jian, who is so smart, has to wait until February next year to take the imperial examination after studying so hard.
Since ancient times, heroes have emerged from youth. Aren’t child prodigies always the top scorers in high schools at a young age?
That’s because it is now the third year of Yongchang, and the fifth emperor of Daqian has only been emperor for three years.
The imperial examination was usually held every three years, but three years ago, the court was in turmoil due to the six princes competing for the throne, so the court cancelled the imperial examination that year.
Hua Jian was seventeen that year. He had completed his studies and was still in good shape, which was a good time for him to take the imperial examination.
Unfortunately, the imperial examination was cancelled, so Hua Jian naturally could not take part in it.
Three years earlier, Hua Jian was fourteen years old, and he started attending private school at the age of ten.
Hua Jian was just smart, but he was not a child prodigy. That year, his foundation was not solid, so how could he take part in the imperial examination?
If it hits the target, it's fine. If it doesn't, the villagers' saliva will drown Hua Jian.
You have to know that Huajian is the only Shuang'er in Xinghua Village who attends a private school. The world is like this, and there are still some ideas of favoring boys over girls in the village.
Hua Jian looked no different from a man except for the mole between his eyebrows, but he was Shuang'er after all. At that time, people believed that Shuang'er's status was even lower than that of a woman.
What's more, although the conditions of every household in Xinghua Village are not bad, this not bad means that they can have enough food to eat, and don't think about anything else.
How many families can afford to support a scholar? Of course they know that studying and taking the imperial examinations are good, but without money, everything is in vain.
So of course some people who like to be jealous are jealous. Their own family cannot afford to send their precious son to school, but the Hua family sends Shuang'er to school. How can they not be jealous?
Farmers have so little to do all day long. When they are bored, they like to get together and chat, gossiping about other people's affairs.
Therefore, some people were not optimistic about Hua Jian's academic performance. Therefore, to be on the safe side, Hua Jian did not take the imperial examination when he was fourteen years old.
When he was seventeen years old, the imperial court was in turmoil due to the struggle for power among the princes, and the imperial examination was cancelled that year. As a result, it was postponed again and again, and Hua Jian has not been able to take the imperial examination until now.
Fortunately, the imperial court has issued a decree to officially open the imperial examination next year, and Hua Jian will be able to take the examination in February next year.
If Chen Wenjin had said this in the past, Hua Jian would have felt at ease, but now he felt unworthy.
I thought to myself: It seems that since I met Lin Han, I have been lying more and more.
Hua Jian felt guilty and replied awkwardly, "Not bad, not bad. I'll take your good words then."
Then, fearing that Chen Wenjin would continue to praise him, he immediately changed the subject: "Wenjin, do you like candied haws? My family brought me a few strings. Come and try them. They're delicious."
As he spoke, Hua Jian took out a string of candied haws and stuffed it into Chen Wenjin's hand. Sure enough, Chen Wenjin's attention was diverted as soon as he heard the word "eat".
He looked at the candied haws in his hand with surprise, his eyes shining.
She shouted happily: "Wow, Brother Huajian, it's candied haws! Your family sent you something again, you are so happy."
Then Chen Wenjin took a bite, savored it carefully, and swallowed it. She couldn't help nodding and praising: "Hmm~ It tastes great, this is the taste."
Seeing that the candied haws couldn't stop Chen Wenjin's appetite, Hua Jian took out a handful of preserved fruits and a few pieces of Poria cocos cakes and gave them to him.
Hua Jian: "Okay, since you're eating, stop talking, or you might choke."
Chen Wenjin took the things and smiled sweetly at Hua Jian, "I know, thank you, Brother Hua Jian."
Chen Wenjin had just finished his meal and couldn't eat much. He only ate two or three pieces of preserved fruit and Poria cocos cake, and wrapped the rest in paper and put them away.
Seeing Chen Wenjin finish his meal, Hua Jian was afraid that he would question him again, so he quickly said, "It's getting late, and I have to go to school in the afternoon. I'm going to bed now, and you should go to bed early too."
After saying this, Hua Jian turned around and left, quickly lying down on the bed, covering himself with the quilt and facing away from Chen Wenjin.
Chen Wenjin chewed something in his mouth and looked at Hua Jian's departing back. He inexplicably felt that Hua Jian's movements were a little flustered.
Then Chen Wenjin shook his head, denying his previous thoughts: Brother Huajian has always been calm and reliable, why did I feel that his actions just now were panicky?
It seems that I have been thinking too much. Oh my God, I have to go to class in the afternoon and I don’t want to go to school. Okay, let’s go to bed early.
Chen Wenjin would never know that he was once so close to the truth.
Chen Wenjin quickly washed up, lay down on the bed and fell asleep soon.
Hua Jian was pretending to be asleep at first, but because of his biological clock, he turned into real sleep.
