Chapter 57 Third Place
After someone passed, the atmosphere at the scene became more and more tense, and I felt that my breathing became depressed.
Seeing that others have passed, but their own has not yet been their turn, how can they not panic.
Qiao Xi gently patted Qiao Bai's back, telling him not to be so nervous, someone will come to report the good news after that, but it doesn't matter, at most he will take the test again.
"Sister, I don't care...... Zhang, no~~ nervous. Qiao Bai's mouth was not nervous, and the words that came out of his mouth became fragmented, exposing his heart.
"I'm not nervous. Come get some water. He picked up the cup and handed it to him.
Qiao Bai took the cup with kindness and narrowed it in small sips to relieve the tension in his heart.
More and more people passed, Qiao Bai's mood became more urgent, looking at the joyful smiles on other people's faces, he felt particularly dazzling, very sad, is it because of the first exam, he is going to pass Xiucai.
"Qiao Bai of Linshui Town won the third place in the hospital examination, and Qiao Bai of Linshui Town won the third place in the hospital examination ~~~" The voice of the annunciator was loud, and it reached the ears of the sister and brother little by little.
"Sister, I heard you right. Did I really pass, third place? Qiao Bai couldn't believe he heard it, he really passed, really passed!
"Yes, it's over, I'll be here soon." Qiao Xi also breathed a sigh of relief, she was also made nervous by them, but fortunately, the result was very gratifying.
"Furong, hurry up and wait at the door, remember to reward." This is a great event, a great event.
"Yes, girl." Furong didn't need Qiao Xi's orders at all, the people were already waiting at the door. This is great news.
"Qiao Bai lives here?" The annunciator saw Fleur and asked.
"Yes, it's my little boy." Fleur said with a smile.
"Oops, congratulations. Congratulations. "The person who reported the good news was very happy, which means that there is a happy money to take, looking at the girl's clothes, this happy money is a lot.
"There is labor. Thank you very much. Furong handed a purse to the servant, the servant took the purse and pinched it, his eyes immediately lit up, the purse was an ingot, the shot was really generous, took the purse, the servant left happily, he still had to report the next one.
Furong sent the official away, and then took out a money bag and sprinkled the copper plate inside, which is the rule, so that everyone can share the joy together, and at the same time be happy.
By noon, the list was over, some people were happy and some were sad, which was a gratifying thing for the Qiao family.
If a woman can also participate in the imperial examination, Qiao Xi's achievements may not be low, she may go further than her eldest brother and younger brother, who let her soul come from another world, many ideas belong to the new in this era, the superior is thirsty for talent, she can not be noticed, her eldest brother often sighs that it is a pity that she is a daughter.
The matter in Fuyang County came to an end, and they began to pack up and return to Beijing.
Out of Fuyang County, I took a deep look at the direction of Linshui Town, even though I was reluctant to give up, I finally had a farewell, pursed my lips, and left without looking back.
After half a month, the familiar city walls of the capital and the familiar words came into view again, and they came back.
Before they came back, Rose and they had just arrived a few days ago, Qiao Song looked at them who suddenly appeared, and secretly congratulated himself that he had bought a house, otherwise he really didn't know how to arrange so many people, the house was bought, but it couldn't be arranged at the moment, so he could only temporarily find an empty house and arrange them in, and the little sister was really, I didn't know how to write a letter to him in advance, and it wouldn't make him scramble.
Qiao Xi and Qiao Bai came back, and the people in the house were even happier, chattering endlessly, saying that Princess Jing came to discuss the marriage, and said again about the appointment of Jun Lichen, since the girl and Chen Shizi's family affairs were decided, they walked with the wind, and there were other small maids in the house who came to talk to them, and they used to disdain to look at them, but now they are rushing to stammer, this is probably what the girl said, a person who has won the Tao chicken dog ascends to heaven, and even their identities have also risen.
Looking at these little faces, Qiao Xi could guess how big their pomp was, and also, the stepfather didn't stop him, this is not like the style of the stepfather, ask him another day.
After Qiao Song came back from duty, he went into the study and handed over the gift list of Jun Lichen's appointment to Qiao Xi, this thing was placed here for him, so that he didn't have much rest, and what kind of dowry gifts, he was afraid that there would be a thief in the middle of the night and steal the things.
Since my sister is back, let's return it to its original owner and let her keep it for herself. He didn't plan to be greedy for ink, and he had to let her take them all away when his sister got married.
"Big brother, are you in such a hurry, I just came back." Qiao Xi looked at the thick stack of lists in his hand, and couldn't laugh or cry a little, how anxious is the eldest brother, is this the plague.
"I don't care, you will keep it by yourself when you come back, you don't know that I haven't slept well, and I'm worried about being remembered by thieves. You say I'm easy. "It's a hot potato for him anyway, and he has to throw it away.
"Okay. I'll keep it myself. "The eldest brother is probably worried about more than that, most of them were frightened by Jun Lichen's handwriting, which made him breathe.
"Little sister, I bought a house in the inner city and spent 20,000 taels." After Qiao Song finished speaking, he secretly looked at Qiao Xi's reaction. 180
Twenty thousand taels, how long will it take for him to save so much. His hands were shaking as he paid.
"I bought it, I just bought it, I was going to buy it." Qiao Xi didn't feel any surprise, the matter of buying a house was urgent, and the people from Qiaojia Village had also come, and the place where he lived now couldn't accommodate it at all.
"I'll take you to see it tomorrow, that house is very beautiful, there is a lotus pond in it, there are rockeries, and a gazebo, oops, you will like it if you go to see it." He bought the house according to his little sister's preferences, and the little sister should like it very much after seeing it.
"The eldest brother will definitely not choose badly." The eldest brother must have bought it according to her preferences, how could he forget how long she could live in the house she bought, and how should she follow them.
"I'm glad you like me. Little brother, how did you do in the exam? Qiao Song had time to care about Qiao Bai.
"Big brother, you finally remembered me." He was really completely ignored by his eldest brother, and he had no sense of existence. Obviously he's such a big brother.
"Big brother, don't you have something to tell your sister, besides, big brother believes in you, you can still disappoint me." He didn't worry about it at all, he had read his brother's homework, and he helped interpret the difficulties, and his younger brother was nine out of ten in the hospital test.
"Then if I fail the test, will you be disappointed?" The eldest brother's expectations for him are too high, so he doesn't worry about really failing the test.
"Why be disappointed, if you can't do it this time, then take the test again. Unless your mind is not on the exam, then it is useless to take more exams. ”
"Hehe, I've passed the exam, and I came third in the college exam." Qiao Bai said with a sigh.
"Let's go, let's go to Juxian Tower to celebrate for you." In the past, there were no conditions at home, but now that he has, he is also very willing to eat the next restaurant.
"Celebrate what?" Jun Lichen rushed over immediately after receiving the news of Qiao Xi's return to Beijing, and as soon as he entered the door, he heard his brother-in-law say that he wanted to celebrate, but his eyes fell on Qiao Xi's body, and he sent him gently.
If it weren't for someone else, he would definitely take her into his arms fiercely to relieve the pain of lovesickness.
"The younger brother passed the college exam and took the third place, and the eldest brother said to go to Juxian Tower to celebrate. What are you doing here? When Qiao Xi saw him, there was a smile in his starry eyes.
"Come and see you. Big brother doesn't mind taking me along. Jun Lichen turned his head to look at Qiao Song.
"Don't call me big brother, my sister hasn't married you yet." Big brother, big brother, he screams quite smoothly, and his face is so thick!
"It's not a matter of time." Jun Lichen was not worried at all, and said with a poisonous tongue.
"Who said that, if I don't agree, how can you marry." Qiao Song glanced at him indignantly, and pulled Qiao Bai out.
When the eye-catching person left, Jun Lichen directly hugged Qiao Xi into his arms, sighed comfortably, felt the breath of the person in his arms, and sighed, "Xi'er." ”
"Let's go, we can't keep them waiting." Qiao Xi poked his waist and reminded him in a whisper.
"Okay." Jun Lichen was a little reluctant to let go, but thinking that his brother-in-law had just been scolded by himself, he still didn't want to annoy him, the person came back, and under his nose, he was afraid that he would not be able to run away, so he led her to chase after him.
When they arrived at the door, the Qiao Song brothers were really waiting for them.
"Little sister, come here." Qiao Song looked at the hands holding each other and felt particularly eye-catching, and he wanted to chop off that claw.
"Oh." Qiao Xi gently withdrew his hand, obediently followed the eldest brother into the carriage, and as soon as he sat down, Jun Lichen's tall body also squeezed in, sat beside her, put his hand behind her, and looked like he was encircling her in his arms and protecting her.
"You go out and ride a horse." The carriage was not big, and it felt a little crowded to accommodate the three of them, and with the addition of Jun Lichen, who was tall and tall, it was even more crowded, Qiao Song said to Jun Lichen angrily.
"No, I don't feel crowded, it's just right." He and Xi'er on the side, Qiao Song and Qiao Bai on the other, did not interfere with each other, where was it crowded.
Qiao Song was angry again, and the calm atmosphere disappeared, and now only naivety remained.
"Big brother, the more business you have, the happier Brother Chen is." After speaking, he looked at Jun Lichen again, "Brother Chen, if you are so angry with my brother, my brother really won't agree." "He had just learned from his eldest brother about his sister and Brother Chen's marriage.
When I first heard it, I was still very disappointed, and my sister will soon become someone else's family, and it will be much more difficult to see my sister in the future. But at the same time, I am happy for her, my sister found someone who loves her, just like my father hurts my mother, although they left early, but they love each other very much, and that's enough.
He believed that Brother Chen would treat his sister well, and he liked him very much, but now that he and his eldest brother were on the united front, it was not so easy to marry his sister.
