Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space
Chapter 372 Zhao Xuancheng Passes the Imperial Examination
In addition, we need to find a literate person to be responsible for keeping accounts and distributing menus, and this person also has to take on the task of buying groceries.
Xiao Wan plans to separate the accounts of the takeaway counter and dine-in counter, and Chen Youli will still be in charge of the entire Banchengxian.
The person in charge of the takeaway window reports to Chen Youli every three days.
Xiao Wan had a vague idea in her mind that someone was her choice, and that was Zhao Dayong.
Why was he chosen? One reason is that Zhao Dayong can read.
I heard that he went to school for two years when he was a child, but later he felt that he was not cut out for studying, so he dropped out.
But fortunately, I know a lot of words, and I write and draw on weekdays, so I recognize quite a few words.
Another reason is that Zhao Dayong is the cousin of Zhao Laoer and the nephew of Zhao Lizheng.
For the sake of Zhao Lizheng, Xiao Wan would definitely promote Zhao Dayong.
After all, Zhao Lizheng's personality and behavior are indeed very suitable for Xiao Wan's temperament.
And upon closer inspection, Zhao Dayong is indeed a hardworking and upright person.
He is not a cunning person, and Chen Youli has mentioned this to Xiao Wan during his daily observations.
If he is more careful, and with Chen Youli's advice, Zhao Dayong should be able to take on the task.
Xiao Wan mentioned this matter to Chen Youli, and Chen Youli also agreed very much.
"Boss, in the early stages I will keep an eye on the takeaway counter and take Zhao Dayong with me. Once he gets the hang of it, I will slowly withdraw."
"This child is good in other aspects, but he lacks a little patience and carefulness. I will take care of him. Don't blame me for meddling in other people's business, boss."
When Xiao Wan heard this, she was happy at first that Chen Youli was responsible, but then she pretended to be unhappy after hearing the rest.
"Uncle Chen, what are you talking about? How could I blame you for meddling in my business? I was worried that I would be too busy if I asked you to take care of Zhao Dayong for a while, but you took the initiative to bring it up. I'm so happy."
"Now that you've mentioned it, there's no room for regret."
When Chen Youli heard Xiao Wan's joking tone, his eyes warmed up, but he immediately suppressed the excitement in his heart and nodded vigorously.
But in his heart, he remembered even more clearly the new life and new hope that Xiao Wan brought to his family.
He secretly made up his mind that he would never let Xiao Wan down and that while he was still able to do so, he would do more for the Xiao family to repay the county lord for her kindness.
After Xiao Wan discussed the takeaway matter, she took Zhang Liang back to the village.
After she returned, she went to Zhao Lizheng's house to discuss the selection of candidates.
It's not that Xiao Wan herself didn't come forward to make arrangements, but Zhao Lizheng was the village head after all. He was upright and selfless, and his work was loved by the villagers.
The key is that Zhao Lizheng has been in the village for many years and knows a lot about the temperaments and personalities of many people.
After thinking about it, I still have to trouble Zhao Lizheng for these things. At worst, I can just recruit Zhao Laoer and Zhao Dayong, and buy some more good wine and tea for Lizheng to express my gratitude.
As a result, as soon as they entered the village, they heard a lot of hustle and bustle in the village. Xiao Wan lifted the curtain of the carriage out of curiosity.
It seemed that they were still gathered at the door of Zhao Lizheng's house. Zhao Lizheng was chatting politely with the villagers at the door with a happy face.
Seeing that his master couldn't squeeze in for the time being, Zhang Liang reported to Xiao Wan, tied the carriage to a tree, and went over to see what was going on.
After a while, Xiao Wan saw Zhang Liang running over, sweating a little. He said, "County Lady, it turns out that Zhao Xiucai, the scholar from Zhao Lizheng's family, passed the provincial examination and ranked third. He has already become a juren. But he hasn't returned yet, so the one who brought the good news got here first."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Wan couldn't help but feel happy for Zhao Lizheng and Zhao Xuancheng.
It is not spring yet, and the provincial examination should be held in autumn, that is, the autumn examination, so it should not be held.
But when the emperor heard that someone had cheated in the provincial examination, he was furious and invalidated all the scores of candidates who had taken the provincial examination last year.
A few years ago, the imperial court issued a notice stating that an additional provincial examination would be held in the first month of the lunar year after the New Year. Xiao Wan did not expect that Zhao Xuancheng had also signed up for the examination.
Apparently, he was well prepared this time and hit the target on the first try. He had heard from Zhao Lizheng before that he would wait until next autumn to take part in the provincial examination. After all, Zhao Xuancheng planned to be cautious because he was afraid that he was not well prepared.
It seems that a top student is a top student. If he doesn't take action, it's fine. But once he does, he will make a big splash.
Although Xiao Wan doesn't have any feelings for Zhao Xuancheng now, she was once taken care of by Zhao Xuancheng. If not for herself, but for the original owner, Xiao Wan will also send some generous gifts.
It was obviously inappropriate to disturb them at this time, so she looked at the crowd with a smile and told Zhang Liang to drive home.
The Xiao family, including Old Man Xiao, also knew that Zhao Xuancheng had passed the imperial examination, and they were happy for him from the bottom of their hearts.
After studying hard for more than ten years, I finally achieved something. It was my own child who grew up under my watch, so I would be lying if I wasn't happy.
An eighteen-year-old young scholar is rare in the entire Yuan Dynasty. The whole village feels proud that such a talented scholar came from Kaoshan Village.
