Chapter 315 Road test, ready to go
Ever since Li Xiucai showed up last time and asked them to leave.
The little book boy Li Xiuzhi didn't accept anything from them anymore.
The maid Xiaochun had no choice but to find Zhao Ce, who had been a life-saver in the past, and give it a try.
Zhao Ce paused and thought, is it from his mother?
Is there anything urgent?
After hesitating for a moment, Li Xiucai suddenly appeared and reached out to take the thing.
He said: "You go back first, the Taoist examination is coming soon, just study hard."
"Don't worry about these trivial things in the future."
This was said to the two women over there.
Tell them not to disturb their students.
After hearing this, Zhao Ce breathed a sigh of relief and left carrying his book box.
Li Xiucai didn't wait for the two masters and servants of the Lu family to say anything, and immediately closed the door again.
Needless to say, Miss Lu still looked lost.
Zhao Ce is now a little curious, what is going on with Li Xiucai and Li Xiucai?
His husband has a bold personality and is informal in his actions.
But he actually didn't look straight at a woman.
It's a bit strange indeed...
However, after Li Xiucai accepted their belongings that day, the master and servant never appeared again.
After two days of this, it was time to rest.
Zhao Ce's store will also launch new food.
Every day when the store is experimenting with baking bread, people coming and going, smelling the aroma, are all greedy.
Hearing that this food was finally going to be launched, people throughout the city were discussing it enthusiastically.
After class that day, Ah Wu took a big food box from the store and brought bread over according to Zhao Ce's instructions.
Zhao Ce said to the students who were about to leave after class: "Our store will have fresh food soon, let everyone try it first."
As soon as they heard that it was a new product from Caitangji, all the students gathered around it.
When the food box is opened, there are three layers inside.
There are about ten breads on each layer, and the three layers have three flavors.
The surface is brushed with syrup and the middle is filled with red bean paste.
There are also some with meat floss and mayonnaise on the surface, and some with jam in the middle.
Three kinds of bread, each made into about the size of two fingers.
As soon as I opened the food box, the aroma of freshly baked food came out.
Everyone in the classroom couldn't help but take a deep breath.
Even Li Xiucai, who was in the study next to him, smelled the fragrance and came over to find it.
We had just finished morning class and everyone's stomachs were empty.
"Sir, are you here too? Let's eat together. I have recently introduced some new flavors."
Li Xiucai also liked sweets, so he immediately rolled up his sleeves and started eating with his students in the classroom.
He also asked the little book boy to make tea and poured half a cup of tea into each person's water glass.
The tea party in this classroom began with the smell of bread and tea.
"Zhao Ce, how do you make this pastry? How can it be so fragrant and chewy?"
"I have never seen such pastries in our city."
Zhao Ce smiled and said, "If you think it tastes good, you can buy it and try it in the future."
"Starting tomorrow, it will officially go on sale."
A classmate asked: "Zhao Ce, the cook in your shop is really good at it."
"The things we have made here are things we have never seen in the city."
"Where did you hire this cook?"
Zhao Ce smiled casually and said: "This is something I tinkered with in my spare time. It's not something difficult to make. It's just more fresh."
"You, you did it?"
When a group of people heard this, they all stopped to eat in surprise.
When Zhao Ce's candy first came out, it aroused the popularity of the whole city.
At that time, everyone only knew that this was his family’s ancestral sugar-making craft.
Even if Zhao Ce knows how to make sugar, can he still make such delicious cakes?
If it were people like them, they probably wouldn't be able to tell the difference between grains.
Everyone ate the fresh cakes and admired Zhao Ce in their hearts.
I don’t know how this person’s brain grew.
He is a farmer, but he has been named the head of the crime twice, and his family's shop is still very prosperous.
It is estimated that some of the officials in the city are not as good as the Zhao Ce family.
Li Xiucai ate two pieces, took another sip of tea, and then said with satisfaction: "You guys eat, I will announce something by the way."
Everyone's eyes turned to Li Xiucai.
"Last year the road test was held in early July."
"The academic officials appointed by the imperial court arrived in Fucheng in early June."
"Zhao Ce and you three will set off early this year to go to Fucheng to wait for news."
Wu Xueli finally got the qualification to go to Fucheng, so Li Xiucai asked them to prepare to leave in three months.
Upon hearing this, Wu Xueli immediately became nervous.
He swallowed the bread in his hand in three or two mouthfuls, then clapped his hands and said, "Sir, even if we go so far in advance, we don't know how to practice when we know that the academic master is coming."
The others basically set off early and went to the academies in Fucheng to study.
If they go to school now, even if they squeeze in time and enter the academy, they probably won't be able to get acquainted with the teacher who teaches them.
Zhao Ce can also go directly to Guo Juren for advice.
Wu Xueli and Qiu Shubai will probably be worried for a few days.
Fortunately for Qiu Shubai, it was just when Wu Xueli was catching up with his progress that Li Xiucai gave him a small start every day.
If this small stove were missing, he could basically declare it gone.
Li Xiucai waved his hand and said with a smile, "It's okay."
"You guys go over there first. Sir, I will ask other teachers to come to the school to give me lessons for a month in a while. I will also go to Fucheng at that time."
"When the academic administrator arrives, I will help you find out the examiner's preferences, and then tell you what kind of essay you should write."
After hearing Li Xiucai's words, Wu Xueli and others were a little happier.
"So, that's great!"
Li Xiucai nodded and told them that they didn't need to make up any extra classes today. They could just go home after eating and prepare to leave at home.
He handed over three pieces of white paper filled with words.
"This is the topic I have assigned to you, sir. You must not relax during this period. I will check your homework one by one."
Looking at the dazzling array of topics above, half a month is enough to write it.
Zhao Ce will keep the homework first, and after arriving in Fucheng, everyone will review it together.
This was already the third time he went to Fucheng, and Zhao Ce thought he was very used to it.
Before setting off, he had to go to the county government office to say goodbye to Magistrate Zhang.
After returning home, Zhao Ce told Su Cai'er the news.
Su Cai'er immediately said seriously: "It's important for my husband to study. I will prepare the things needed for departure."
This time, after my husband passes the hospital examination, he can wear silk and satin.
Su Cai'er planned to bring the two pieces of cut cloth and make the clothes while in Fucheng.
When the results are announced, whether they are at home or in the city, the husband can put them on immediately.
Chapter completed!
