黑暗中，一行行发光的小字伴随着画面次第出现。

In the darkness, lines of glowing text appeared one after another as the scene unfolded.

【 nǐ huí dào le máo dìng 1 nián ， xīn xǐ ruò kuáng de nǐ zuò le xiē chū gé de jǔ dòng ， xiǎn xiē bèi nǐ de shěn shěn guàn xià le cūn lǐ wū pó chù qiú lái de qū xié shuǐ 】

【你回到了锚定1年，欣喜若狂的你做了些出格的举动，险些被你的婶婶灌下了村里巫婆处求来的驱邪水】

【You returned to the year 1, filled with joy and excitement. You did something outrageous that nearly got you a potion from your aunt's witch for exorcism.】

【距离乡试还有半年，你于家中日夜苦读。由于你已知晓了试题，所以显得信心满满。你的婶婶虽然平日里对你颇有怨言，但是在读书这方面，她却一直支持你】

【Six months before the county examination, you studied day and night at home. Since you knew the questions in advance, you were confident. Your aunt, though often resentful of you, supported your studies in this area.】

【村长的弟弟觊觎你家祖传的肥沃田地，暗中逼迫。婶婶身为妇人，虽然勉励抗拒但是力有不逮。你略施小计就摆平了此事。婶婶从此对你另眼相看】

【The village chief’s younger brother coveted your family’s fertile land and pressured you secretly. As a woman, your aunt tried to resist but was powerless. You managed to settle the matter with some small tricks. From then on, she looked at you differently.】

【 bàn nián hòu ， nǐ cān jiā le xiāng shì ， suī rán zhǐ shì sān shí duō míng de mò wěi chéng jì ， dàn zhōng guī shì chéng gōng zhōng le jǔ rén ， guāng zōng yào zǔ 】

【锚定2年，你前往玄京城参加了会试。对试题早有准备的你自然高中。并在之后的殿试上发挥出色，位于二甲之列，赐进士出身】

【In year 2, you went to Xuanjing for the metropolitan examination. With prepared answers, you naturally succeeded. You performed well in the palace examination and ranked second among the third tier, earning the title of jinshi.】
