To Yunxiang's surprise, Dalang Liu Qingshan also passed the government exam, although he was the third from the bottom, but he did get the qualification of a child.

In the afternoon of the same day, some officials found their inn and made an appointment to return to their hometown together tomorrow. Yunxiang also hired two cars for this purpose, one car took himself and Shiro, and the other car made two government officials who went to the county government to report, and these two officials were specially sent home to report the good news.

This job is a good job that everyone is rushing to do. Because there will be additional subsidies, not to mention, the child's family will also give a part of the bounty. These two people actually didn't grab the good ones, the young masters of the eunuchs, the sons of the rich and noble families, and even the children of the well-off families were all preempted. The two of them could only go to this country man's house. Originally, both of them were ready to go on foot or do ox carts. Where did you think that people also hired a carriage, and the carriage also put snacks and tea, and the service was very thoughtful.

When they arrived at the county office, the two officials first handed over the post of the child's qualification to the county government, and then took the two county officials back to the mountain village together.

"Hit! Hit! My brother is a child! Xiao Wu waited at the entrance of the village early, and when he saw the carriage far away, someone waved to him, and he ran back like a wind, shouting that Shiro had been hit by Tongsheng as he ran.

To go to Yunxiang's house, you have to pass through most of the village, so after Xiao Wu shouted like this, many people came out to see the excitement. After entering the village, the four officials no longer took the car, but took the gong and struck it as they walked. It's just a child, but it's not necessary. But the family was generous and entertained well, and the official who was stuffed with silver as soon as he got into the car couldn't get any strength.

The fourth old lady asked Sister Mei and Sister Lan to help them out, and when they heard that Shilang was a child, they smiled from ear to ear, and told Liu Chengli to buy firecrackers, and he also went to Yunxiang's house.

It was a big deal that someone in the village had been born into a child, and after Li Zheng heard it, he couldn't sit still, and went to Yunxiang's house with several village masters.

Yun Xiang had already boiled tea and prepared snacks at home. As soon as the official came to the door, Zhou first gave each of the four people a red envelope of one or two silver, and the four of them were not happy. Xiao Wu picked up the firecrackers on the door, and for a while, it was very lively.

Liu Chengli then arrived and also set off two firecrackers. The fourth old lady was invited in and sat on the top, and Li was sitting beside him. Several village elders did not hesitate to praise all kinds of praises.

Yun Xiang saw that it was bustling inside, so she gave the coachman a piece of money and told him to send the four officials back.

"Sister, there are too many people watching the excitement outside, do you scatter copper coins?" Xiao Wu ran in from outside the yard and pulled Yunxiang's clothes, "There are so many children outside!" Sprinkle some more maltose on your sittings! ”

"Can you eat maltose if it falls to the ground?" Yun Xiang helplessly held a dustpan of copper coins and said, "Let's go, go with my sister to scatter money!" ”

"It's time for the money!" Xiao Wu came out first, and then grabbed a handful of copper and threw it out. The cloud incense that came out afterwards was also sprinkled.

This is 200 copper coins, which seems to be a lot. Immediately, everyone joined the ranks of grabbing copper coins. In front of the gate of Yunxiang's house, it was the first time it was so lively.

"Sister, look." Xiao Wu pulled Yun Xiang's sleeve, and Yun Xiang saw Liu Xiu'er and Xiao Wang with angry faces behind the crowd. As for San Lang, he had already gone with a group of children to grab copper coins.

Yun Xiang took Xiao Wu's hand, "Don't pay attention to them." Don't forget, we're going to cut ties with them. ”

Xiao Wu nodded, and at this time, Shiro walked out in a light blue child's robe, and saluted everyone, "Thank you, folks, thanks to everyone's care over the years, Shiro remembers it." "The appearance of the child's robe is slightly different from that of an ordinary robe, with willow leaf stripes on the neckline and cuffs, which can only be worn by children, and those who are not literate are not allowed to wear it, otherwise the rod is eighty. This is what 'shi' represents.

Some of these people do sometimes look at the poor children of this family, and will secretly give them food and drink. Sometimes he helps cut two handfuls of pigweed. Seeing that the child who was not well fed and warmly clothed a few months ago suddenly turned into a child, he was a little embarrassed for a while.

Of course, it was more of a joke about the old Liu family, saying that people didn't treat their grandsons as good, but they were tortured, and as a result, they were admitted to Tongsheng as soon as they were divided. Some people also say that the old Liu family has the talent to read, the fourth child is a child, and Shiro is also a child. Of course, after everyone learned that Da Lang was also admitted to Tongsheng, they were even more sure of this idea.

"Mother." Yun Xiang whispered, "At noon, the village elder and Li are having dinner, Uncle Chengli's family and Uncle Zhou's family are invited to have a meal." ”

Zhou nodded, "Is there enough at home?" ”

"I was ready for a long time. You can rest assured. Yun Xiang smiled, "You will entertain the ladies in a while, and my sister and I will cook." ”

Sweet and sour carp, braised pork, stewed rabbit meat, pheasant stewed mushrooms, then pork belly stewed eggplant, stewed tenderloin, and then served with two vegetarian dishes, vinegared cabbage, and a large pot of white rice. Yun Xiang was clever, and made some extra potstickers with leek eggs and cabbage meat.

At noon, three tables were set up, one table was Shiro accompanying Li Zheng and the village elders, and the other table was Liu Chengshuang accompanying the Zhou family and Liu Chengli, as well as Wulang. At one table, the Zhou family accompanied several female dependents, along with Yun Xiang and Yun Lian.

On this side, there is joy, but on the other side, the atmosphere of the people in the old house is a little bad. Old Man Liu sighed, "I shouldn't have done things if I knew it." ”

Liu Wang's face was cold, "Isn't it just a child's voice?" The fourth child will be a talent soon! And Da Lang, our family is not bad at reading. ”

Xiao Wang was still angry, "Mother, don't you know, their family still scattered copper coins!" That's a lot, a lot! Mother, they didn't give them any filial piety silver! ”

Liu Wang's face suddenly became gloomy and terrifying, and he was about to say something, but he was interrupted by Old Man Liu. "That's it! The second daughter-in-law, at that time, the book was cut off, where is there any filial piety silver? Don't do it again, if Shiro has a chance in the future, he will have to hold a grudge against us! Now let's think about what to do in the future. ”

The family didn't have the heart to eat lunch, so Erlang went back to his small courtyard. Seeing Erlang's unhappy face, Chen immediately understood what was going on with him. Then he comforted, "It's just a child, and Shiro has only been studying for a few days?" It's just a momentary luck, and the future is still far away! The fourth uncle hasn't been taking the exam for several years! Besides, Tong Sheng can't be an official. ”
