Two or three things about the Duan family

In the morning of early spring, when the sun is rising and the weather is not yet very warm, the West Street of the town is already very lively, but white steam rises everywhere on both sides of the street. These are small vendors who come early to make breakfast.

In front of a steamed stuffed bun shop, a boy about sixteen or seventeen ran over with a book in his arms, "Boss, take twenty steamed stuffed buns, ten vegetable ones, ten meat ones."

"Good."

Opening the steamer, the boss quickly took the buns and hugged the boy. The steamed buns just came out of the pot, and the boss didn't feel the heat at all.

The boy paid the money, took the buns, and ran away in a hurry.

While walking, the boy stuffed something into his mouth.

Not long after, the boy stopped in front of a shop, and when he looked up, it was a coffin shop.

The boy walked in with a book in one hand and a bun in the other, "Father, breakfast is here."

As soon as the words fell, a man about 30 years old came out. When he saw the boy, his eyes lit up immediately, "I'm starving to death, hurry up and bring it to me."

Hearing this, the young man pouted and sent the bun over, "I'm going to have a test soon, and you keep asking me to run errands for such trivial things, can't you call me a boy?"

Another classmate's house, the family members know that the child is going to be tested by the government, not to mention that the child is not allowed to work, even if the child eats, he can't wait to feed the child himself. Son toss him.

Doesn't his father know?

—His son will have an exam soon.

The man took the bun and took a bite, then freed up another hand, and stroked the hair on the boy's head, "Dad, aren't you afraid that you will be nervous? I want you to run more and adjust."

"Thank you, I'm not nervous at all." The boy took out his book and sat down in a corner.

The man smiled indifferently, and continued to eat buns. When he was full, he remembered to say to his son: "Tangtang, don't study here, go to the furniture store next door." When it comes to his son, Duan Hu also bears Can't help but be particular about it.

The young man was Duan Tangtang, who stopped shaking his head and glanced at his father, "It's not enough, I'm used to it, and it's quieter here than a furniture store."

Duan Hu smiled and followed him, patrolled the shop and came back again.

He found a stool and sat around his son, picked up a book his son had left, opened it for nothing, and flipped through it casually.

The content in it was extremely boring. Duan Hu didn't like to read it very much, so he glanced at Duan Tangtang who was shaking his head. He couldn't figure out why his son liked reading such boring books so much.

The son ignored him, and Duan Hu flipped through the book again. After a few glances, he still couldn't read it anymore, so he threw it away again.

On this day, apart from eating and drinking, Duan Hu just inspected the shop and watched his son study, and the day passed like this.

In the evening, when the sky was getting dark, Duan Tangtang put away the book and said to Duan Hu, "Father, I'm going back, will you come with me?"

Duan Hu's face changed for a moment, as if he wanted to go back, but he still waved his hand, "I still have something to do in my shop, so I won't go back, you go back first."

"Come on, Dad, what can you do at night after you've been idle all day?" Duan Tangtang sneered, his father was really dishonest.

Seeing that Duan Hu was looking for an excuse again, Duan Tangtang hurriedly interrupted, "Father, you should go back. Don't worry, Dad packed his things and went back to the village early this morning."

"What?" Duan Hu couldn't sit still after hearing this, "Why didn't you tell me earlier?"

"Ah... Dad, Dad won't let me." Duan Tangtang shrank his shoulders when his father stared at him.

Duan Hu kicked Duan Tangtang's ass, "Go away, what should you do?"

After dismissing his son, Duan Hu hurriedly went to lead the bullock cart, explained to the shopkeeper in the store, and hurried out.

While driving the bullock cart home, Duan Hu felt depressed, and he couldn't figure out why Shi Xiaoshifei asked him to grow a beard.

I have a beard, which is difficult to clean, and I always get a hairy face when I sleep.

Not to mention himself, even when he was having fun with Shi Xiaoshi, it was very uncomfortable. When the two were excited, they always liked to gnaw, and every time they gnawed, they just gnawed on the hair of their mouths, how uncomfortable it was.How can there be a feeling of skin-to-skin contact?

Just because everyone else has saved it, does he have to suffer the same?

Look at Duan Shao, and those who are about his age in the same village, with beards, they all look older than him.

After sending his father away, Duan Tangtang touched his kicked buttocks. Although it hurt a little, the days to come will be easier, and his father finally returned.

……

On the day of the exam, I don't know what happened with his dad and dad, anyway, they both came.

Before Duan Tangtang entered the arena, he couldn't help but worry, and he didn't know if the two had reconciled.

Maybe it's because of his talent in reading, maybe it's because Duan Tangtang started his studies early, Duan Tangtang was very relaxed after taking the three government exams.He has already memorized the Four Books and Five Classics.Poetry, prose, strategy, etc., Mr. has trained him specially, and he has been running outside with his father since he was a child, unlike other scholars who do not listen to world affairs, only read sage books, and have their own opinions when they encounter problems .As for Ming Suan, it's not a problem, he can be regarded as the son of a businessman. When he didn't go to school, his father gave him enlightenment at home. At the beginning, he learned numbers and counted.

Duan Tangtang answered easily, but the results came out. Although his ranking was not very high, he still passed the government examination.

In the subsequent rural examination, Duan Tangtang fell ill before entering the arena. He insisted on answering more than half of the answers, but finally couldn't take it anymore, passed out and was carried out.

Duan Tangtang was disheartened and felt that the scientific examination was hopeless. He had already packed up his things and was ready to go home. He only had to wait for three years of hard study before taking the test again.Unexpectedly, Duan Tangtang was lucky and happened to be the last scholar.

After the township test, it was the general test. During the test, Duan Hu didn't go with Duan Tangtang, but Duan Chao, Duan Hu's apprentice, went with him.

Duan Chao is the child Duan Hu picked up from the village river on the second day of his wedding. Duan Chao's father died early, and he lived with his sick father at a young age. Stop bullying their father and son.

Duan Chao was forced into desperation. In order to support his sick father at home, he wandered outside at a young age. Once, Duan Chao, who had lost his job and hadn't eaten for a few days, was met by Duan Hu.

Duan Hu saw that he was talented, filial, and gracious, so he accepted him as an apprentice and taught him skills.

The result of the general examination was Duan Tangtang's best among the three examinations, and he got No.9.

Duan Tangtang was very confident in the first government test, but he didn't want to pass it in the end, but his grades were mediocre.

The husband is also very optimistic about Duan Tangtang. He is not only the son of a good friend, but also his favorite student. In the school before, Duan Tangtang used the relationship between the two families to ask his husband to teach him a lot.Duan Tangtang shared his opinion with Mr.

Mr. also has high hopes for this student. He knows about Duan Tangtang's essays, but perhaps because he is too young, in the eyes of those grizzled examiners, Duan Tangtang's writing follows his heart and gives advice, which seems a bit deviant.Fortunately, the other Duan Tangtang answered better, so it would not be too miserable.

But this time, Duan Tangtang learned his lesson and tried to be conservative in answering the test paper.

But a sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, although he deliberately suppressed himself, but between the lines, the youthful spirit is not so easy to hide.

Duan Tangtang was lucky again, the new emperor had only been on the throne for four years, and in the court hall, the new emperor was not less angry with those old men left behind by the previous emperor, but the new emperor could not easily move those people.

Those old people are too pedantic and have too much power. This is the time when the court needs a batch of fresh blood.

Now, through the imperial examination, the new emperor intends to recruit some newcomers, preferably not involved in the mess of the court.

Duan Tangtang was really surprised, the government examination and the rural examination almost made him lose confidence.Unexpectedly, in a twist of events, he won the number one prize.

A month later, the small mountain village exploded.

Who doesn't know that Duan Tangtang of Duan Hu's family was driven home by his husband after studying for a long time for the first time, and the second time his father left the back door to let him accept him (cough! It is said that someone in the village saw him Duan Hu invited Mr. to eat in the biggest restaurant, and he still had a lot of things in his hand, and he didn't know what they were. But after thinking about it, he knew that most of them were money.)

And this kid actually won the number one prize.

How can it be?

Why is God so closed-eyed?At least his son has been in school for a few days.Why is it the Duan family's kid's turn to win the championship?
