Chapter one hundred and fourteenth

After dinner, Tao Yongneng told his family that he would take on a job and would be busy until summer.

Brother Tao Zuoling congratulated him, and he said modestly: "This is because your uncle has a lot of things to do, otherwise it wouldn't be my turn to do this job."

Brother Tao Zuoling still smiled and congratulated: "Dad, if you don't have superb skills, others will not hand over your work to your father. Dad, where you need our help, just shout us."

Tao Yongneng smiled and turned his head to ask Tao Weicheng: "Cheng'er, you are not old and your family can afford to study at your brothers. Do you take a big exam this year? Regardless of whether you pass the exam or not, you can read another year?"

Tao Weicheng smiled and shook his head: "Grandfather, I have been reading books for so many years. If I can't take a big exam, I will have no clue in my heart. After I took this exam, I knew the difference between me and others, and I felt at ease from now on."

Tao Weicheng has signed up for this year's Child Student Examination. He personally doesn't have much hope. The Master advised him to take the exam one year later, maybe he is more confident.

His current situation may be able to pass the first try, but the second test depends on luck. There are not many people on the list of Fenzhou City every year, and this is probably the case this year. Tao Weicheng also feels that his own hope is not great.

Tao Yongneng privately searched for Tao Zuoling and said, "Liang'er, go to school tomorrow to inquire about Cheng'er's learning situation. If he has the hope to continue studying, please persuade him."

Tao Zuoling understood Tao Yongneng's meaning. He went to school to ask the Master, and the Master said to him in a close relationship: "Tao Weicheng is a very sensible student who is good at advancing and retreating. I support his decision."

The Master did not say too clearly, but Tao Zuoling did not continue to ask. He came back and had a serious conversation with Tao Weicheng, and finally decided to support Tao Weicheng's decision.

When the spring rain came to the county exam, Tao Weicheng was the first person to take the big exam in Tao Yongneng's room. When the family woke up early in the morning, they were very careful.

There was a hint of brightness just now, and Tao Zuolian had already sent Tao Weicheng to take the exam.

Ping Sanshun and Ji Bajie were very excited. They walked around the yard for several times before they calmed down.

When Tao Qingbi entered the school, she had just sat down and rushed over and said, "The magpies came to my house today. It called out several times. My elder brother will definitely have a smooth exam."

Tao Qingbi remembered that she also heard the birds chirping in the morning, and said happily: "Brown sugar, there are magpies in my family who screamed several times today. My elder brother will definitely be on the list this time."

Ying Honghua sat aside, too lazy to remind them that at this time, each family could welcome the magpies' screams, and every household was very happy.

Ying Hongtang would not let Ying Honghua sit aside. She turned to Honghua and said, "Sister, several magpies have come to our house to report the good news, right?"

Ying Honghua nodded with a smile, Tao Qingbi thought seriously and said, "I went into the room to wash up. Maybe at that time, a group of magpies came to my house to report the good news."

"Puff." Ying Honghua couldn't help laughing, it turns out that children will compete for winning or losing in terms of quantity.

Ying Brown Tang turned his head and looked at Ying Honghua: "Sister, when I entered the room, were there two groups of magpies coming to our house to report the good news?"

Ying Honghua looked at the door of the classroom and sat upright, whispering: "The Master is here, you guys sit down."

Ying Brown Tang immediately took a step back and sat down. Tao Qingbi turned the pages directly. The two looked down at each other. The Master stood on the podium and looked at the students looking at the pages below, showing a satisfied expression on his face.

After the county trial, Tao Weicheng came back to study hard. Three days later, he was on the list. Tao Yongneng was secretly happy in his heart. Tao Weicheng said to Tao Zuoling privately: "Dad, I'm lucky this time, and I've passed the county trial."

Tao Zuolian patted his shoulder: "It's already very good."

On the day of Tao Weicheng's examination, the weather was so clear that Tao Zuoliao sent his son to take the exam and was in a good mood.

In the afternoon, he took Tao Weicheng home. In the carriage, Tao Weicheng shook his head at him and said, "Dad, I didn't do well in the exam."

Tao Zuoling made preparations in his heart, but when he heard Tao Weicheng's words, he was still disappointed. He smiled at Tao Weicheng and said, "Okay, if you have a name on the list this time, your grandfather will definitely ask you to continue studying for two years."

"Dad, it's not that I don't want to study, but I'll be at this level if I study for a few more years. I won't study anymore. I'll come back and do my best and let my brothers continue to study."

On the day when the mansion trial announced, it rained heavily again. Tao Zuoliao and his son went to see it. They rushed back before noon. Ping Sanshun and Ji Bajie saw their expressions and hurriedly arranged for them to sit down and drink a bowl of ginger soup.

Tao Zuolian shook his head at their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, and Tao Weicheng said straightforwardly: "I looked carefully at the names on the list. This time, only Ying Ziqi has passed in our school. He wants to continue to participate in the college examination."

Tao Qingbi had heard the news in the school. When she came back to see Tao Weicheng, she said cautiously: "Brother, you are already very capable. You have passed the first exam."

Tao Weicheng looked at her with a funny look: "Niu Niu is a little relaxed. My elder brother has said that after the exam this time, he will no longer study and come back to do his job with peace of mind. In the future, if there are fewer goods in the store, my elder brother can also make some items to send."

"Brother, you can make a few small spinning wheels. The small spinning wheels that are polished very carefully will definitely be very easy to sell."

"Okay, I'll do it tomorrow. If I sell it, I'll buy the meat and invite everyone to eat big meat."

"Okay, the things that my brother makes will definitely be easy to sell."

The brother and sister talked about doing work. After Ping Sanshun and Ji Bajie exchanged glances, they laughed. In this situation, Tao Weicheng stopped studying, which actually reduced the pressure at home.

Ping Sanshun and Ji Bajie whispered: "Cheng'er is old. You should pay more attention to the situation of each family when you are outside in the future. If you have a good woman, you can also talk to the woman's house in advance."

Sister Ji Ba was stunned for a moment. Ping Sanshun looked at the expression on her face and smiled: "My mother-in-law told me about Liang'er's big event back then, and I didn't think about why the child grew up so quickly."

Sister Ji Ba looked outside and whispered: "Mom, don't worry, in two years to work on Cheng'er's big business. I think he is still a child now, so let him learn to do two years of work."

Hei Sanshun smiled and said, "I'm just reminding you that you who are parents, please discuss and decide by yourself. Your father and I have said that as long as you are parents, you don't have bad intentions to the children, your father and I will not interfere in your decision."
