"That's good," Qingwan said with relief.

Wei Da and his wife were a little embarrassed when they heard their daughter's words, and the two of them hurriedly came over and said: "Second sister-in-law, girl, this time it is really thanks to you, wait a few days, and we will come to the door to thank you." ”

"Just like the girl said, it's all a family, and there's nothing to thank you for." He softened, "Go back and take care of Xiaoyu, this child has suffered during this time." ”

"The carriage back to the village is not far from here, we hurry up now, we can still have time." Qingwan looked at the shadow of the sun and said busily.

The group returned to the village in a horse-drawn carriage. Wei Da and his wife naturally took their daughter home. The He mother and daughter slowly went home.

As soon as Hanjuan saw them, she hurriedly said, "Why have you been there for so long?" What the hell is going on? ”

When she heard the ins and outs clearly, Hanjuan also had a little palpitation: "It turns out that the little girl has suffered so many sins in the Luo family, it's not that I said, the four uncles and four aunts are really amazing."

"Forget it, don't talk about them," He said, "It's really embarrassing for such people, just now I heard that I was going to compensate them for money, so I agreed, and I didn't care about anything." Look at this posture, if someone promises some benefits, maybe they can sell Xiaoyu again! ”

"But I think Xiaoyu has changed a lot now," Qingwan said while changing her clothes, "After this incident, she will reflect a lot." ”

He was about to speak, when he suddenly heard a rapid sound of horses' hooves outside the door.

In this rural place, horses are rare, and it is rare to have one or two horses in the village, and they are kept as treasures, so when you hear the sound of hurried horses' hooves, you know that they must be from outside.

The sound of horses' hooves came from far and near, and finally stopped at the door of Qing's house.

He Shi was taken aback: "Did you come to our family?" ”

"Mother, don't panic, I'll go out and have a look." Although Qingwan couldn't guess, she didn't panic.

She walked out of the door, just in time to catch up with two people in Confucian clothes to dismount, and asked, "Is this Wei Hanguan's family?" ”

"Exactly." Qing Wan responded, and had already guessed a few points in his heart: "You are from the School of Etiquette and Righteousness?" ”

"The girl guessed right." The two said: "What about Wei Hanguan?" ”

"I'm his sister, and I've gone to study with a crown. If you have anything to do, tell me the same. ”

"Okay," the two of them took out a piece of paper, "didn't your brother sign up for the Talent Course?" Because of special things, the exam is advanced, just tomorrow, tell Wei Hanguan and let him get ready to come to the Liyi Academy tomorrow for the exam. ”

"What? Ahead of schedule? Qingwan was a little surprised, took the paper and looked at it, and sure enough, it was so. Why is it suddenly ahead of schedule? Didn't you say the second day of the fifth month? ”

"It's an order from above, and we don't know about it." The two said: "Today, we will be sent to go through the entire county and the villages below, and notify them door to door. Don't delay tomorrow! ”

"Alright," Qingwan said, "thank you two, get off the horse and rest, and come in for a cup of tea." ”

"No need, thank you, girl," the two looked anxious, "there are dozens of people who haven't been announced, we have to hurry up, otherwise, we will delay other people's major affairs, but it will be a big deal." ”

"So far, there are dozens of people?" Qingwan couldn't help but say, "How many people have signed up for this talent selection?" ”

"That's a lot, I've heard that there are more than a thousand." The two hurriedly left a sentence, and hurried to get on their horses and gallop away.

The mother and daughter of the He family had already come out of the courtyard and heard it, and they were busy saying, "There won't be anything, right?" Changed the time in such a hurry? ”

"No," Qingwan comforted them, "This is the exam presided over by the prince, there must be something special." Be of good cheer. It just so happens that tomorrow I will also go into the state city to sell goods, and I will go with Hanguan. With the two of us taking care of each other, nothing will happen! ”

"Yes, yes," He said, relieved, "I'm really confused, how did I forget this stubble?" It's a coincidence, with you with Hanguan, your father and I are relieved. ”

"Mother, it's already past lunchtime, you and your second sister are hungry, right?" Hanjuan hurriedly said, "I'll go and give you heat." ”

"It's okay, there's no hurry." Qingwan said, "Did Dad come back to eat at noon?" ”

During this time, because it was the time when the farm was busy, the strong Qing Boding sometimes didn't even come back for lunch, and only cared about working in the fields. The Hanjuan sisters had to send the rice to the field.

"I came back, saying that I had little life today, and I didn't leave after eating and resting for a while." Hanjuan said, and had already gone down to the kitchen.

As night fell, Qing Boding's father and son came back one after another. He briefly told her husband what happened in the fourth room today, and Qing Boding didn't say anything else, just sighed twice.

After dinner, Qingwan gave Hanguan the notice sent by the Liyi School.

Hanguan took it and was taken aback: "So suddenly? It turns out that on the second day of the fifth month, there is still a period of time, and I can still read more books, but now, I still think I am not ready."

"It's okay," Qingwan knew that this eldest brother was good at everything, but his temperament was a little cowardly, "We all believe in your ability." Over the years, everyone has seen how well you have learned, and you must be fine. ”

"Really?" Seeing her sister say this, Hanguan smiled and clenched her fists: "Dad, mother, sister, don't worry, I will definitely take the test well!" I'm sure I'll win glory for you! ”

Qing Boding and his wife showed a relieved smile on their faces: "Okay, good, with your words, my father and mother will be satisfied." Father and mother raised you, don't ask you to be rich and expensive, as long as you can support yourself and be eager to learn, you will be able to live a good life when you want! ”

"Dad, mother, I'm sure, although I'm a village child, I'm no worse than anyone else!" In the eyes of the crown, there is a tenacious look.

"Good boy." Qing Boding's eyes were also a little red, but he didn't want people to see them, so he deliberately turned his face away and pretended to drink tea.

"We'll have to travel long distances tomorrow, so let's rest early today." Qingwan saw that the atmosphere was a little sentimental, and it was not early, so he urged everyone to say.

In fact, she also wanted to go back to the room early because she had delayed too much time today, in addition to packing up the makeup and things she was going to bring tomorrow, and then practicing makeup making for a while.

When everyone heard this, they wanted to go back to their rooms as soon as possible, but they all had nothing to say, so they all washed up.

Qingwan didn't sleep until midnight, except for checking the package and practicing makeup making for another hour, before lying down.

Before dawn the next day, Hanguan was the first to get up. Although he has always been accustomed to getting up early because of his studies, today is still much earlier than before.

He had something on his mind, and kept packing up the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone in his hand, but he didn't say a word.

Qingwan knows that the eldest brother has always been calm, and he usually speaks little, and today's exam is the first important exam in his life, and it is also an exam related to his future fate and life, so he is naturally nervous and doesn't want to speak.

Everyone tacitly didn't ask him anything. Han Juan was busy preparing a sumptuous breakfast in the kitchen, and He helped his son clean up his things, but he was always overly nervous, often because he was too nervous, and even Qing Boding did not go to the ground early today, but just like his son, he sat on the kang and drank tea without saying a word, his face was extremely gloomy.

Only Qingwan, the mood was very relaxed, she saw that the family was so nervous, so she paced into her brother's house: "How far are you going to go out?" Things have brought two big burdens, let's talk about it, along the way, you will carry it, I don't care! ”

He's mother and son are absent-minded, and they haven't been far away, so whatever they see, they don't care about stuffing them into the baggage, and before they know it, they actually put two big burdens.

"The exam was over at the end of the day, and my brother and I hired a car and came back in the evening. Just bring the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone. Qingwan instructed: "Don't forget to bring an extra copy, so as not to be in a hurry when you get it." ”

"The second sister is right," Hanjuan made breakfast, came into the house to greet everyone, and smiled unconsciously: "Look at your posture, it seems that you are going to go all the way to Beijing." ”

"Eldest sister, borrow your auspicious words," Qingwan said with a smile: "Hanguan was admitted this time, but don't you think you're going to go to Beijing to study?" That's a good sign. ”

As soon as she said this, everyone laughed, and the mood was much more relaxed, and after breakfast together, the two sisters and brothers went out.

When he arrived in the state city, Qingwan first sent his younger brother to the Liyi School. There are still two streets apart, and it is already a crowd of people.

Because this is the exam presided over by the prince himself, and he is going to the capital, it is an extremely rare opportunity for young students in the state city.

The sister and brother finally found a vacancy, and reluctantly squeezed to the front of the school, where there were already four scholars in Confucian clothes standing there to maintain order.

Although there are many people, they are all quiet. When it's time for the exam, you will put the documents you have registered for in the venue one after another.

Hanguan tightly held the small burden containing pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and made a smile: "Second sister, don't worry, I will definitely be able to do well in the exam." ”

Qingwan also smiled, she gently patted her brother's shoulder, took two steps back, and watched her brother enter the examination room.

When all the candidates entered, the gate was closed, but the family members of the candidates outside still refused to disperse, standing there in twos and threes chatting.

"Hey, you say, why is such an important exam suddenly advanced? My son is a little panicked. Someone asked curiously.

"You don't know that, do you?" Some well-informed people pretended to be mysterious and said, "You said this is an important exam, so who is in charge of it?" ”
