The moment Xu Ran got her test paper, she knew in her heart that she got the last place again.
This is her eighth time placing last on the exams if she counted this time.
Xu Ran didn’t even had the tears to cry anymore as she holds her test paper with determination.
Her family servant and her maid Fei Cui were waiting outside the exam room. Seeing her come out, they immediately went up to her. Fei Cui gave her a hand warmer, pointing to the far side of the courtyard, directing at the Stone Lions Road: “The first young miss and third miss are waiting in their sedan chair for you.”
It was in the middle of winter with snow flying and the wind rustling. The head servant shouted an order and all three comfortable sedan chair were moved till they were in a parallel line.
Even after Xu Ran got into the comfortable sedan, her hands and feet were still feeling ice cold. Because they were people of the ancient China, the school examination room did not even had a stove. Once you enter the examination room, it is like falling into a ice pit.
Sitting in the sedan chair next to Xu Ran’s is her little sister Xu Jiao. Her sedan was brought near Xu Ran’s, lifting the sedan curtain, Xu Jiao began to chat: “To this day, I still don’t know where this damn wind come from. Because of a little joke from old Liu Ge, every school is competing to set an example. What learning the way of the poor, my hands have been frozen stiff!
Her little sister was talking about how a couple days ago, old Liu Ge summoned all the officials to talk about the situation of the candidates taking exams this year. They somehow reached the topic about the new champion Feng Jian. Feng Jian was born poor, he covered his body with snow on a cold winter day to keep from dozing off. He memorized 《Laws of Zhou Dynasty》diligently. Old Liu Ge to Feng Jian, for example, expressed the current students warm and warm thinking.
