Chapter 55 Submission
Carefully copying the answer sheet, to be honest, it was still early, Shenshi, it should be less than 3 pm, Wei Guangde finished today's exam, naturally consider whether to hand in the paper.
Checked repeatedly, there is no change, if it is copied, there is no change, unless the whole paper is copied again, unlike later generations, the paper or answer sheet can be crossed or erased.
Glancing at other people, there are actually a few people who have handed in their papers, but looking at their appearance after coming out, they all seem to be dejected. Wei Guangde probably wants to win the first prize, but he didn't get a good result in front of Tang County Master.
Re-reading what I wrote, there is no mistake in the word, it seems to maintain a good level.
Speaking of the traditional Chinese characters used now, sometimes Wei Guangde will accidentally write the simplified characters of later generations. There is no way, it has been a habit formed for more than ten years, so Wei Guangde checks the paper, the first thing to do is to check if there are any mistakes.
As for today's paper, just handing this handwriting to Master Sun, he should be satisfied and stroke his beard and nod.
Wei Guangde didn't want to wait any longer.
He wanted to hand in his paper.
Continuing to sit in the examination room was also a torture for him.
After confirming that he had not written any simplified Chinese characters, Wei Guangde gritted his teeth and stood up, holding a stack of test papers in both hands, nodded to a yamen runner who was staring at him, and then walked to the lobby.
Wei Guangde didn't know whether Tang Xianzun had been sitting here all the time, but he was there at this time. After all, it was afternoon and some candidates had to hand in their papers.
However, when Wei Guangde walked in, he saw that Tang Xianzun seemed to be dozing off with his left hand on the table. There was no paper in front of him, but there was a stack of papers stacked up far away next to him.
Hearing the footsteps, Tang Xianzun immediately sat up straight. After Wei Guangde put the paper in front of him, Tang Xianzun just nodded.
"You can leave now."
It was a very perfunctory sentence. Obviously, he didn't have any good feelings towards Wei Guangde, a candidate who handed in his paper early.
Wei Guangde was thinking about staying downstairs to see how the County Master Tang would react when he saw his paper.
I remember the novels I read online before. After the protagonist traveled through time and completed the answer sheet, the examiner immediately bowed down and shouted "Top Scorer Paper".
Well, even if it's not so exaggerated, you can draw a circle on my paper and point to me directly. I traveled through time, the protagonist.
Wei Guangde shouted in his heart.
But at this time, he naturally couldn't stay in the hall any longer. The County Master had already let him go.
A little disappointed.
Wei Guangde turned around and walked out of the hall step by step, but he listened to the sound behind him with his ears. As long as the County Master Tang made a sound, Wei Guangde would turn around and come back immediately.
Unfortunately, until he walked from the outside of the examination room to the front of the county government, he didn't hear any sound from the County Master, let alone let him stay down to say a few words.
Walking out of the county government gate, Wei Guangde wanted to imitate the plots in the novels he had read, whether to shout "This exam will definitely pass" or other bold words at the gate of the county government, but looking at the scene outside the government gate, Wei Guangde consciously did not say a word, and made a meaningless action.
Damn, there is no one outside the county government gate at this time, who is he doing this for, who is he telling it to?
If he really shouted, he would probably be regarded as a candidate who was crazy about the exam by the yamen runners inside the gate.
But it was really strange, Wei Guangde thought to himself.
My uncle said he would come to pick me up, why is there no one outside?
In later generations, there are still people sending and picking up candidates, why is it not allowed in the Ming Dynasty?
Even the few people who came out earlier, there is no one to see now.
In the past, after the exam, didn't you have to check the answers outside the examination room?
Sad, cold and sad.
He stretched out his hands to the left and right, did a chest expansion exercise, and was about to leave with his hands behind his back. When Wei Guangde took back his hands, he was stunned.
Damn, I forgot to bring the exam basket to the exam room.
When Wei Guangde walked a few steps to the front door of his house with the exam basket, he saw the coachman in front of the door tidying up the carriage frame.
The carriage is still here, so my uncle should still be at home, why didn't he come to pick me up?
Although the exam room is very close to home, I am also a car owner, why should I rely on my legs?
The coachman also saw Wei Guangde, and when he approached, he bowed and saluted, shouting "Good luck to my cousin, my cousin will definitely win the first place"
In fact, it was just a greeting, and the rest was all imagined by Wei Guangde himself.
However, when he walked past the coachman, Wei Guangde still saw a little bit of that meaning in his eyes.
Wei Guangde knew that he had seen many people looking at him like this along the way.
Although there were not many people at the gate of the county government, it was in the center of the county after all, and it was only a few steps away from the downtown area, where people came and went.
If it weren't for the county exam today, there would still be people walking outside the yamen, and street vendors would be hawking their wares nearby. The income and consumption of the palace servants in the county yamen are not low, at least in Pengze County.
"Hello, uncle, I'm back."
As I approached the door, I saw my uncle standing outside the main house, and my mother and aunt were standing inside, looking like they were about to go out.
"Mom, aunt, I'm back after the exam."
Wei Guangde immediately walked in with a smile, carrying the exam basket.
"You're done with the exam? You didn't even check it out."
Wei Wu was stunned when she saw her son coming in, and she kept mumbling.
"It's good that the test is over. Today's test questions should be very simple. Guangde is back so early."
Uncle Wu Zhankui was just stunned for a moment, then a smile appeared on his face and he said.
"It's quite simple. I've done it in private schools before."
Wei Guangde walked up to them and said.
"Take a walk and go in and tell me, I'm tired after taking the Guangde exam for a day. Take a good rest these two days until the county exam results are released."
The uncle reached out and grabbed the test basket from Wei Guangde's hand and pulled him inside.
Wei Guangde was naturally unwilling to let his uncle take the test basket, but his uncle's movements were too sharp, and he snatched the test basket from his hand.
This made Wei Guangde couldn't help but sigh, people in the officialdom are really quick to reach out.
The happy atmosphere was not broken until it was time to rest in the evening.
At this time, his uncle and aunt had gone back to their room to sleep. Wei's mother followed Wei Guangde to his bedroom door. When Wei Guangde entered the room, he suddenly asked: "Guangde, did you do poorly in this exam?" "
Well, Wei Guangde had already felt it before. His mother and uncle seemed to be trying to force a smile.
After all, for such a young person, when taking the county examination, I didn't see the white-haired candidates carrying examination baskets and being supported by their sons or grandsons into the examination room every year.
Wei Guangde also picked it up before and said that he was seeking truth from facts. The test questions this time were really not difficult.
It's a pity that no one believes it.
At this time, Wei's mother finally asked.
