Chapter 49: Fourth Meet

g to achieve success and fame. Once you\''re an official, you\''ll be superior to others.

当官，当官，多少寒门子弟挤破了头脑也要参加科举，希望能够功成名就，一跃龙门来个鲤鱼翻身，从此脱胎换骨高人一等。

You won\''t have to worry about being able to enjoy life\''s pleasures. Working in fancy places with people serving you looks like a glorious job.

不愁吃喝享乐还备受尊敬，有身份，有地位。衣食住行皆有人伺候。

The poor ones like us could never see the light of day because few of us can succeed in the imperial exam.

但是大部分我们这些寒门子弟也没有这样的出头之日，因为考上的毕竟是极少数。

Yes, being an official is challenging, but nothing is easy in this world.

是，做官并没有那么那么容易，但是人活在世又有哪件事情是容易的。

People\''s eyes are fiery, so everyone rushes to grab good things. Just look at the increasing number of people participating in the annual imperial examinations, and you will know that the competition is getting more arduous and challenging.

世人的眼晴可都是火眼睛睛呀，所以好东西大家都蜂拥而至用抢，看看每年参加科举的人数只多不减，竞争越来越大，通过越来越难就知道了。

If being an official is not a good path, then there is no better path to take.

若是当官这条路还不好的话，那世上就没有其它更好的路可以走了。
