The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination

Sun Shan held the little fat girl for a long time, and finally put her down after holding her for long enough.

To be honest, the little fat girl is really heavy. Not to mention holding her while standing or walking, it’s tiring even if I hold her while sitting.

Thinking of Su walking along the ancient Guangdong-Hunan Road with the little fat girl hanging on his body, I suddenly felt that Su was very tired and distressed.

At the same time, he also firmly believed that Su really loved his granddaughter. If he didn't like her, why would he tie her to his pants?

Sun Shan looked at the fat girl who was still holding the big golden crown tightly - the little fat girl was picking at the gems on it, and he couldn't help laughing.

She said gently, "My dear daughter, you play with your mother, while your father goes to write a letter."

Sister Yun smiled and said, "Brother Shan, if you have something to do, go ahead and do it. Xiaoxiao, I'll just watch over you."

The little fat girl was still immersed in the golden brilliance of the big golden crown and did not hear what Sun Shan said at all.

Seeing that she was so rude and didn't say goodbye to her father, Yun Jie'er immediately snatched the golden crown away.

The little fat girl was startled. She watched the big golden crown in Yunjie'er's hands and shouted anxiously, "Mother, the golden crown belongs to Xiaoxiao."

Come on, it’s hers once I get it. I’m really impressed.

Sister Yun pointed at Sun Shan and said, "My dear daughter, your father is going to work to earn money to buy you a gold bracelet. You have to say goodbye to him now."

The little fat girl looked up at Sun Shan and didn't want to say anything.

Turning around, he saw Sister Yun glaring at him like a fierce ghost. He quickly turned around again and shouted, "Dad, see you tomorrow."

This is what the little fat girl said when she said goodbye to her friends at home.

Sun Shan laughed heartily, patted his daughter's head, and said with a laugh, "My dear daughter, I'll see you later."

Gui Ge'er also put little Hei Mei down and said cheerfully, "Hei Mei, you should also say goodbye to Shan Bo."

Little Blackie was much more sensible. She did whatever Guiger said and said sweetly, "Shanbo, see you later."

Although Xiao Hei Mei is small, she is actually a smart little girl. Sun Shan said that he would meet Xiao Fei Mei later, so he would meet her later.

Sun Shan smiled and said, "Sister Yun, I'll leave them to you."

Then he said to Hu Ming, "Hu Ming, practice your calligraphy here. When you have practiced for a long time, you can go play."

I thought of giving Hu Ming a thorough assessment, seeing his progress, playing with him for a few days, and then sending him to the county school.

Hu Ming hummed, "Foster father, I understand. After I finish practicing calligraphy, I will go help Grandpa and Mother with their work. The teacher said that we should combine work and rest. We can't be a lazy scholar who doesn't know how to distinguish between grains and fruits."

Sun Shan looked at Hu Ming with admiration and said happily, "Good, Master, your teaching is excellent. As scholars, we must be able to do other things besides studying. Practice your calligraphy well and then go to work."

Good habits must be cultivated from childhood. Sun Shan was born in the countryside, and Hu Ming is now his adopted son, who is also a peasant like him.

When you drink water, remember the person who dug the well. We cannot lose the skills of rural life and we must cultivate the ability to work from a young age.

Sun Shan went to the study and received replies to each letter.

Take advantage of Uncle Chen's free letter delivery and write as much as possible.

The first person to reply was Dapangpang.

Sun Shan was so disappointed with his son that he wrote three long pages criticizing Fatty.

After studying for more than 20 years, with a wealthy family and abundant resources, he is still a poor man. It is really infuriating.

Sun Shan could imagine the anger and humiliation of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and he could also imagine the pitiful look of Fatty after being beaten up.

There is also the love and care of Mr. He San and the third old lady.

But if Sun Shan was there, he would definitely cheer his father-in-law and mother-in-law on, and hand them a stick so that they could beat him hard.

The letter that Big Fatty wrote to Sun Shan was as thick as a book. One-tenth of it was his despair about the college entrance examination, forty-tenths was his desire for food, and the remaining forty-tenths was complaints.

After thinking about it over and over again, I just feel that the college entrance examination is too difficult.

At the same time, he blamed Sun Shan for being too powerful, leaving him far behind.

The letter asked Sun Shan to send some delicious food from Yuanlu County as compensation.

When Sun Shan saw this, he instantly became furious, so he wrote a three-page letter of criticism to Dapangpang.

At the end of the letter, Sun Shan wrote: "Brother Qiang, I am sending you some examination papers and books from Yuanlu County and Chenzhou Prefecture for your reference. Please read them carefully, do the exercises, and ask the teacher to review them. I hope to hear good news from you next time."

Then he looked at the packed documents on the desk. He believed that Big Fatty would faint after receiving them. Maybe he would draw a small circle and curse him.

As for the gourmet specialties that Big Fatty requested? Humph, don't even think about it. A commoner dares to make so many requests. He must not know how to write the word "death".

After writing the letter to Dapangpang, he wrote back to Old Master He San and his father-in-law.

Sun Shan didn't know what to say, so he simply wrote about the situation in Yuanlu County in a few words, telling them that everything was fine here and that his work was going smoothly.

Finally, the letter escalated to thank them for marrying Sister Yun to him, and he wrote in the letter that after Sister Yun came, his inner courtyard became much more comfortable and tidy, leaving him without any worries.

Although Sun Shan had not witnessed Sister Yun'er's ability to handle domestic affairs when he wrote the letter, he believed that after Sister Yun came, at least he would not have to worry about giving favors and gifts.

The most important thing is that after Sister Yun came, Sun Shan found that the quality of the food had improved a lot, and there was afternoon tea from time to time.

Especially for pastries, whether they taste good or not is one thing, but if they are made particularly exquisitely, they will look tempting. The way County Magistrate Wang and Chief Secretary Wu drooled, you can tell that the pastries are well made.

Sun Shan also expressed his gratitude to his cousin Chen in the letter, saying that thanks to him, Sun Boming and his group had such a smooth journey.

At the same time, we thank Chen for his help in making the connection and presented him with local specialties as a token of our gratitude.

Then Sun Shan wrote back to Aunt Sun and Uncle He, mainly reporting bad news rather than good news, just to let them know that everything was going well.

Tell them that everything is fine in Yuanlu County, and hope that the elders take good care of themselves and pay attention to their health. Finally, send them some local specialties to express my thoughts and thoughts.

Sun Shan had been in Yuanlu County for more than a year and had only received two letters from his cousin He Shujin. His aunt and uncle seemed to be a little worried in the letters, as they rarely received letters.

Sun Shan didn't know what was going on. Perhaps Chongqing Prefecture was too far from Yuanlu County, and even official mail delivery would be very inconvenient.

My cousin was introduced to Chongqing Prefecture midway through his career, and I don't know if he'll be transferred next year. Being an adjutant isn't easy, and I don't know if my cousin is doing well.

Sun Shan secretly suppressed his inner worries and had to tell his aunt and uncle not to worry and take good care of themselves. The health of parents is related to the future of their children. They need to eat well, sleep well and everything will be fine.

After replying to Hejiacun, Sun Shan wrote back to his good friend Zhu Pengyun. Although he did not receive his letter, the opportunity was rare and he had to take advantage of Uncle Chen's train to send the things back safely.

The Zhu family has a shop in Guangzhou Prefecture, so as long as the letter returns to Hejia Village, it will definitely be received.

In the letter, Sun Shan talked about the situation in Yuanlu County, and expressed his nostalgia for the happy study time in the academy. He also sent him some local specialties to express his longing.

Maybe Zhu Pengyun would write back to him and send him some special products from his own Duanzhou Prefecture.

Thinking of this, Sun Shan couldn't help but chuckle.
