Chapter 235: Family Feast

Most of the ladies are scattered at the moment, and now that the results of the township examination have come out, the old lady, wife, and young grandmothers are busy, and they can't help anything, so they might as well go back to the hospital. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Huang Xuerou went back to the wing room where she lived, and ignored the little maid's chatter, and only sat alone in a daze.

Outside, people came and went in the courtyard of Lin Mu, supporting errands and being busy.

It didn't take long for a special annunciator to arrive. I saw a group of people, wearing red tasseled hats on their heads and official uniforms, greeting them in response.

Master Lin and the eldest young master and other masters of the mansion were entertaining in the main hall outside, and the good news official read: "Good news to the lord of your mansion Lin Yuzhi, should take the undergraduate Shuntianfu Township Examination, and the fifth place in high school." Annunciation Wang Yuan. ”

And the court awarded 20 taels of silver and a plaque on the top of the arch. The plaque is hung above the gate of the house, and the torii can be erected in front of the door. In the second year, the new imperial examination candidates can take the Ministry of Rites Examination in Beijing. If you fail to pass one or three subjects, you can also be "selected" or "picked" by the ministry to become a low-level official.

As soon as the annunciation officer finished speaking, although everyone already knew the result, they were still shocked, the third young master was really a master!

"Congratulations, your young master high school, the future is limitless!"

"Thank you, officer, please enter the inner hall and sit down for a while."

Master Lin's shock was only for a moment, and he resumed talking and laughing, beckoned the official to come in for tea, and arranged for a meal of wine and dinner. He also personally arranged for the 20 taels of silver and the top coat and hat plaque awarded by the imperial court, and took it down and presented it to Lin's mother for inspection and placement.

He was also busy opening a horizontal slip and handing over the in-laws, families, and relatives who had always been in contact with him to the person in the newspaper room, telling him to fill out the newspaper slip and deliver it to each family. I was busy checking the day and asking for wine. He was also busy watching the days of sacrifice to the ancestral hall and discussing how to sacrifice in the ancestral hall. He was busy singing with the old lady, setting up wine, and entertaining guests. The three masters and the eldest young master who only commanded were going around, and they were especially busy.

The words are divided into two ends, and then the Wang family returned to his own courtyard in the east courtyard, and directly sent the maids and servants in the courtyard, and his heart ached, and he fell on the bed, shouting for Aunt Zhou and Aunt Zhao to come in to serve and serve the sick.

Aunt Zhou, who was in the East Courtyard, also got the good news from the maid, knowing that her son had been lifted, her tears were like breaking the embankment, and she was out of control. When he was called to Wang's room, he still burst into tears, and when Wang saw him, it was like seeing that concubine, he was only angry that his brain hurt, and he couldn't send her down at this time, so he sent her out angrily.

However, he said that the Li family passed through the East Corner Gate from the Wang family, returned to the courtyard where he lived, and entered the three hugging buildings, but saw that Lin Qingzhi was not in the room, and asked Lingxiang, but he had been staying in the inner study, and a small servant came to report once during the period.

At this time, it was already past the meal, and Li asked the maid to take the meal, and went to ask Lin Qingzhi to go back to the room to eat.

Li called the door and no one answered, and went directly into the inner study. "It's this hour, you can come back to your room and eat!"

"Time, life, time is not waiting for me! I'll be back tomorrow, so go and help me pack up!" Lin Qingzhi sent Li away, only to feel that a mouthful of phlegm was blocked in his throat, he couldn't spit it out or swallow it, and the anger in his heart couldn't be detailed.

......

Second Master Lin can be said to be proud of the spring breeze in the yamen of the Ministry of Industry, and all colleagues congratulate him continuously, Second Master Lin is praised very high, and he is praised for his good teaching, which makes Second Master Lin very glorious on his face.

Wang Bingqiang, the waiter of the Ministry of Works, approached and congratulated, "Brother Lin is outstanding in learning, sure enough, he has won the Five Classics in this subject, and it should not be difficult to take the spring exam next year, congratulations!" Brother Lin should have a banquet, and we all ate wine together to celebrate. ”

As mentioned in the preface, Wang Bingqiang and Tan Zong's brother Tan Yao are good friends, and now Tan Zong has taken the Central Asian Yuan, and the whole family has been alarmed, relatives and friends are old, and the protégés of the clansmen are not known, so the good news will be notified to each family one by one. The family rejoices and feasts the guests.

Second Master Lin was chatting and laughing with everyone, and a small servant was sent from the house to invite him back to the house to entertain guests. Second Master Lin had to make another appointment with his colleagues for another banquet, and then hurried back home.

The Lin family inquired in many ways, and only then did they find Lin Yuzhi who was having some wine with everyone in the "Dengke Restaurant" near the Gongyuan. The family members and the little servants persuaded each other with good words, and everyone dispersed and went home.

Tomorrow, there will also be a "Deer Banquet", which will be attended by the chief examiner, the supervisor and other internal and external curtain officials and the new imperial examination people. It is for the new imperial examination people to meet with the chief examiner, the supervisor, the academic administration, and the housing official, and then there is a banquet.

It's inconvenient for everyone to get too drunk today, and tomorrow's deer banquet gaffe will not be beautiful.

In order to attract scholars to pass the imperial examination and embark on their official careers, scholars who passed the imperial examination could participate in a grand celebration banquet hosted by the imperial court to show the grace of the imperial court, which led to the famous imperial examination four banquets. They are: Luming Banquet, Qionglin Banquet, Eagle Yang Banquet, and Huiwu Banquet.

The deer Ming banquet is the banquet set up for the new imperial examination, and the deer Ming Yan was opened in Fengyu Building, and the same year people went to the group to worship downstairs.

Lin Yuzhi naturally asked the thirteenth time to send news to Peach Red and Liulu in the Jingshi Street, and set the carriage to return home. In recent days, there have been few socials in the house, and it is impossible to run back and forth twice a day, so it is necessary to settle in the feather courtyard for a few days.

Lin Yuzhi was taken back to the house, he was already drunk, and he was sent back to the courtyard to rest, and it was not too late to talk about everything when he was sober. The house should deal with the entertainment outside, and it was arranged by Master Lin.

After the second master returned to the house, he wanted to teach his son, and I heard that he was in the same year as a few, and the township test Yayuan Gong Tan Zong, the fourth place in the Zuodu Imperial History Mansion Cai Gongzi, and another Zhongju drank together in the same year, and rested in the courtyard after getting drunk, and gave up after a few breaths. I went to Lin's mother's room to discuss things.

In the evening, it is a family banquet in the house, and men and women are seated separately. Mother Lin took the female dependents of the mansion to feast in the main hall of the five hugging houses of Mother Lin in the backyard, and the young lady, wife, grandmother and daughters-in-law in the house gathered in the inner hall, laughing and laughing, and there was a scene of wealth and glory, family harmony.

Master Lin and the second master took Lin Yuzhi and the gentlemen in the house to set up a banquet in the main hall of the outer courtyard. Others are just that, only Lin Qingzhi's cousin is full of spirits, and he is praised by everyone, and his heart is more and more unpleasant, the wine is not a good wine, and the banquet is like chewing wax.

Lin Yuzhi was very happy at noon, and he lost some measure in drinking, and when he went to sleep after returning home, he still didn't completely eliminate the smell of alcohol. At the evening family banquet, there was less of the usual calmness and steady, and more of the proud young scholarly spirit of the spring breeze, and the children of the clan took turns to persuade them to drink and congratulate, which made people feel more cordial and approachable.

The gossip of Emperor Rongjing's imperial review of Shuntianfu Township still came out, and there were fellow examiners in addition to the main and deputy examiners of this section, and there were people who could hide it there.

There is such a major event as the adjustment of rankings, and everyone has different visions and experiences, and their interpretations of events are also different.
