High school is good, and the Great Wall has taken another big step forward, which is really a good thing.

However, Qing'er was on the list, and she also took the fifth good ranking, but Chang'an fell off the list.

This was expected, and everyone had been prepared in their hearts, but it turned out to be so, and they were still a little disappointed.

is also because of Chang'an's failure, and even the joy of Qing'er High School seems to have been discounted.

Jin Niang is sorry for Chang'an, but Chang'an is very open, "This shows that I am not ready yet." Chang'an said, "The master also said that I still have to experience a few years of training, and I will be a little sure if I take the exam again in the next three years." Now, unless pie falls from the sky...... Even if pie falls from the sky, it won't necessarily hit me. ”

The people in the flower hall were all amused by him, and Chang'an said with a smile, "I have asked my uncle for advice, and I know that I am still far from my uncle." This time, I only participated in the spirit of long-term knowledge, and it was expected that I didn't pass the exam. When I go to school for a few more years, I have some skills from my little uncle, and I will be a champion. ”

Chang'an said this is pleasing, on the one hand, it shows that he is open-minded and open-minded, and his family does not need to worry about him, and on the other hand, he also praised his little uncle, implying that his little uncle's talent is worthy of matching the champion. Well, my uncle did well in the exam this time, although he was not in the top three, but it was impressive to get to the fifth.

This year is different from last year, there were not too outstanding scholars last year, as if most of them were mediocre. On the contrary, this year, like a fight between gods, masters from all walks of life are frequent. Not to mention that the disciples of various great Confucian disciples came out from all over the place, let's just say that the students of Jiangnan Academy also poured in like carp crossing the river.

In addition to these people, there are also the students of Guozijian, as well as the major families who have abandoned the traditional way of "electing officials" and "favoring shades", and also let the outstanding sons and daughters of the family have a try......

Don't say what the purpose of these families is, just say that just look at this card, you will know how to try this year.

And the little uncle can't compare with others, even if he worships a famous teacher later, but he has only been studying for a few years? Compared with him, those students of the family and Jiangnan were taught by famous teachers early on, and the whole family supported them, and in this regard, the little uncle did not have an advantage at all.

But under such a "predicament", the little uncle also broke out of the cage and won the fifth place in the exam, which is really eye-catching.

Chang'an looked at Qing'er again and said, "Uncle Xiao will work hard, and strive to get a champion back during the palace exam." My second uncle is the champion, if you can also be named the champion by His Majesty, it will definitely be another good story. ”

Qing'er couldn't cry or laugh, "I want to be the champion, but can I do it if I think about it." ”

This time the imperial examination was a real immortal fight, not to mention that the reputation in front of him was more prominent than him, the accumulation was deeper than him, and even in terms of age, they were more advantageous. That's right, those people are generally in their thirties, and they don't seem to be more stable and reliable than Qing'er, a hairy boy. And they are all quite good-looking, so Qing'er really doesn't have much competitiveness in it.

Before, he also had the heart to compete for a champion, but now, it is also an eye-opener to have a list or a flower.

Time is pressing, there are a few days before the palace test, Qing'er no longer delays the time to talk to everyone outside, and goes back to the room to read.

Jin Niang wanted to stop him and asked Qing'er if she wanted to go to Kefu to deliver the good news in person, but after thinking about it, she forgot it.

This is the result of the examination, not the palace examination, and I didn't even pass the Huiyuan exam, so I ran to Yue's house to report the good news, which was too happy.

It's okay to go over, wait for the results of the hall test, and then let Qing'er go in person.

But Qing'er herself didn't go, but the house had to send someone over to report the good news, which was the rule.

Jin Niang called Qinghe and asked her to bring Xuanxuan, in the name of playing with Ke Ke, and pass the happy news by the way.

The next day, watching Qinghe and Xuanxuan go out, Jin Niang asked Xiao Yu'er, "Your grandparents wrote last time that they went there?" ”

"I've gone to Shuozhou."

Letters were sent through government officials, and they came faster than ordinary trustees. But it takes eight days to get from Shuozhou to the capital, and what Father Lin and Aunt Shen mean is that they will recuperate in Shuozhou for two days and wait for their bodies to recover before setting off. It will take about five or six days for them to arrive in the capital.

Five or six days may be just in time for the day of the Qing'er Palace's exam.

Jin Niang thought of something, so she said, "Go back and ask your aunt to take someone to clean up the Lin Mansion again, especially the yard of your grandparents, so that you can take care of it." And bedding and so on, too, to dry. ”

Xiao Yu'er said, "Mother, you see that you are worried, do you still need to say this matter, my aunt has already planned it." My aunt also said yesterday that she was going to go back to Lin Mansion in the past two days, and she was going to clean up the house from the inside out. She asked me to come over and help her, and I agreed. ”

Jin Niang didn't say anything. Okay, it's good that you two aunts and nephews have said a good amount, but it's just that I'm a little redundant.

The time soon came to the day of the palace test, and Xu Erlang was also going to enter the palace on this day. Jin Niang still wondered what he was doing in the palace as a person who didn't have a serious official position now? Xu Erlang is quite reasonable, "Can't I watch the Qing'er exam?" ”

Jin Niang felt that of course not, "Shouldn't parents avoid suspicion when children take exams?" ”

"That's why I avoided it." Xu Erlang is quite reasonable, "Did I enter the palace a few days before the palace exam?" Have you ever said good things to Qing'er in front of Your Majesty? I've avoided it to this point, there's no reason why this kind of big asahi who has to show up from the four officials won't let me attend, right? ”

Jin Niang suddenly realized that today is still a big day.

Then you just say that you have to attend, you have to be in the court, what do you do if you say that you have something and don't? Fool me?

Jin Niang glanced at Xu Erlang again, and Xu Erlang touched her white cheeks. If he wasn't in a hurry to enter the palace today, he would still want to flirt with Jin Niang. After all, it's rare to have the mind and time to do so. It's really not good today, I messed around a lot last night, I got up late today, and if I delay it any longer, I'm afraid I'm going to be late.

Xu Erlang went out with two pieces of pastry, Jin Niang was worried that he would be hungry after the meal was over, so she simply asked the maid to fill him with a purse of the jerky that had been roasted for Qing'er and Chang'an earlier. It's not bad to eat two to fill your stomach when you're fine, the taste of hunger is too uncomfortable, and you won't be able to suffer from it.

After Xu Erlang left, Jinniang asked the maid, "Did Qing'er leave over there?" ”

"Uncle went out an hour early. They are going to take the palace test today, and then they will definitely visit His Majesty, and they will enter the palace early to say that they want to practice etiquette first. ”

Jin Niang was speechless, is this the importance of the exam and the importance of meeting the king? Such as...... It is true that the latter is more important.

That being said, there is always a feeling of putting the cart before the horse.

I don't know if Xu Erlang was also so tossed when he took the palace test earlier?

Jin Niang recalled her memories and found that she didn't have this stubble in her head. Did he forget to ask or did Xu Erlang forget to say?

In the end, Jin Niang didn't come up with a reason, and then when it was breakfast time, Changle and several people came over, and even Chang'an Changping came to Cuibai Garden after breakfast.

Several children were also nervous about their little uncle.

As soon as the temple test is passed, the person's origin is determined. Tongjinshi is comparable to an aunt, which can't be on the table; Jinshi and the first are not bad; If it's close to the first grade, that's the best.

Everyone was a little anxious, but it was useless for them to rush into the fire. Whether it is a Jinshi or a champion list, it depends on His Majesty's decision. So they dispersed, and they gathered together to add to the sense of depression, and Jinniang's nervous hands were about to tremble.

After kicking out a few children, Jinniang went to Heyan Hall to visit Xu's father and Xu's mother.

Father Xu was listening to the two aunts singing songs, and the two aunts were both from the opera troupe, and their singing skills were really good. They also relied on this ability to convey their affection to Xu's father, so they hooked up with each other. Although Xu's father is useless now, he is the old lady of the family, and although he can't add another child to his old man's favor, he can always get some more silver money, right?

The aunts are from poor backgrounds, so they won't be able to pull their faces to coax men. They sang like weeping, their expressions were vivid and tactful, and their bodies were delicate...... It's quite likable. But with such a bewitching style, it is also a concubine. If the eldest lady of that family "loves" with a man like this at home, I am afraid that it will instantly become the talk of the capital.

Jin Niang walked to the door and saw the scene inside, it was really neither advancing nor retreating. In the end, she waved her hand to Wang Kui, who was guarding the door, and asked him not to report.

Father Xu rarely listened to singing happily, she was more interesting and didn't disturb his interest.

However, Wang Kui, a minion, can also do things, and I think I will tell Father Xu about her visit later.

When the mind arrives, don't pick on her if Father Xu is not in a good mood after that.

Soon it was time for lunch, and Jin Niang sat on the beauty couch to rest after lunch.

In the past, she should have taken a lunch break at this time, but today she only cared about waiting for news from the palace, and she could still sleep there.

Just as she was pretending to sleep, Jin Niang heard the sound of "kicking and staring" and entered the door, she opened her eyes and saw her little fish running in from the outside like a burning buttocks. "Oh mother, why can you still sleep? Hurry up, didn't we say we were going to see my little uncle on the street? ”

Jin Niang waved her hand, "Didn't my mother say that if you only go a few of you, I won't join in the fun?" ”

I've seen it once, or the time when she kissed the champion in the public, so I won't go this time......

It was crowded, and to be honest, she was quite worried about a traffic accident. On the day of each temple test, the boxes on both sides of Suzaku Street were booked early, and they also booked one, and the box also had two windows, but count how many people they were going to ...... Changle, Xiao Yu'er, Xuanxuan, Brother Rong, triplets, Chang'an Changping, plus her, that's a whole ten people. Coupled with the subordinates who are waiting around them, is it a box? At that time, it will be the people who are walking the streets, will the two windows be enough for them to squeeze?

After thinking about it, Jin Niang decided to sit at home and listen to the news and imagine that picture, as for her own life to go to the street, she refused.

Jin Niang closed her eyes and continued to sleep, but Xiao Yu'er didn't follow it. hurriedly pulled her mother up from the beauty couch, and while telling the maid to get the clothes, shoes and socks that Jinniang went out, she shouted, "Go, go, it's a pity not to go." My maternal grandfather and grandmother will not see my little uncle's success in this meeting, you have to witness it yourself, go back and tell them. Oh, you just get up, mother, my brother Chang'an Changping is not with us, they have sent us to the place, and they are going to get together with their classmates in the academy. I heard that Brother Su Zheng Su Xuan, as well as Brother Wen Yun, they went to the box alone, and the eldest brother and the second brother went to look for them later. The brothers also said that they would take Brother Rong with them, and I was not at ease. Oh, mother, get up quickly, if you don't get up again, the eldest brother and the second brother will take Brother Rong away. There are so many people on the street, the eldest brother and the second brother can't take care of it, what if Brother Rong is taken away? ”

Jin Niang only felt that 10,000 sparrows were chirping in her ears, and the noise made her headache and headache.

Xiao Yuer can really say that there is still this "take it away or not", thinking that human traffickers dare to show up at any time.

Jin Niang couldn't resist Xiao Yu'er, and finally reluctantly followed them out of the door.

That is, they got into the carriage, and before they got out of the willow alley, the official messenger in front of them roared by.

Jin Niang plucked her ears, and then plucked her ears, she grabbed Changle, "Your little uncle was hit by Tanhua or what?" Am I having auditory hallucinations? ”

Changle also smiled excitedly and bent his eyebrows, "Auntie, you heard it right, my little uncle has visited Hualang in high school." ”

Tanhualang, it's not as expensive as the champion, but it's very, very good.

Jin Niang immediately laughed, "Qing'er can be regarded as having come out of the blue." ”

The rest of the children in the carriage didn't understand the meaning of "Tanhualang" or not, they all shouted loudly, and they were all excited as if they had won Tanhualang.

Several children are particularly clever, and they also take advantage of Jinniang's happiness to give opinions.

Changzhou said, "Uncle Xiao was admitted to Tanhualang, we have to celebrate him." In this way, let's eat at the gluttonous building today, how about we not get drunk and go home? ”

Changhui said, "Uncle Xiao is one of the four happy events in life, and we will go to Uncle Xiao's house in person to congratulate Uncle Xiao." ”

Changqi looked at the two elder brothers, but didn't speak, but Xiao Yu'er, her dark eyes purred, "We still have to prepare a congratulatory gift for our little uncle, but we don't have enough money on hand, so you can support a few." ”

Even Changle said playfully, "Auntie, I want to send two bottles of health pills to my little uncle, but I still lack a vintage spiritual wisdom." I remember the last time I helped you sort out the warehouse list, I saw that there seemed to be a 500-year-old spiritual ...... on it."

Brother Rong said, "If there are ready-made things at home, I won't buy them for my uncle." Mother, I remember that there are a few good inkstones in my father's private library, and there are many Hui inkstones, can I send some little uncles as gifts? It's too much to send to my uncle, can I leave the rest to me? ”

Several children looked at Jin Niang, and Jin Niang only felt that her head was as big as a bucket. What kind of life did she provoke so many nemesis, not to mention one or two to give her filial piety, but also thinking about the things in her hand, and wanted to pick a few good things to take away.

Is this her adopted son, daughter, and niece, this is the enemy she raised?
