Chapter 225: On the list

Today's list.

Early in the morning, the Jinshi list was crowded with people who came to see the list.

Everyone craned their necks and stared with bated breath at the dense names on the list, for fear of missing their names.

I'm even more afraid that I won't be able to find the name I want after reading it several times.

Some people rejoice and some people worry.

Naturally, those who are on the list are happy and run to tell each other, and those who are not on the list will inevitably hang their heads and leave in disgrace.

Pei's carriage stopped not far away.

Mrs. Pei personally accompanied Pei Zhiyang to watch the list, and Pei Shangshu told her to keep an eye on this child and not let him do anything radical.

Originally, Pei Zhiyang didn't plan to take the road of the imperial examination.

Pei Shangshu didn't want to force him, but after the divorce turmoil, Pei Shangshu had to pretend to make an agreement with him and use his fame to temporarily stabilize his mind.

In the past, Pei Zhiyang hummed a small song at most, and casually scanned the list.

Whether there is his name on the list or not, he won't take it to heart, so he turned around and beckoned a few fox friends to go out and mess around.

But this time, before the carriage stopped, Pei Zhiyang hurriedly jumped out of the car.

The carriage shook violently, and the little guy who followed it hurriedly exclaimed, "Young master! Take it easy! ”

Mrs. Pei grabbed the handkerchief and wiped the cold sweat that didn't exist on her forehead.

She lifted a corner of the curtain slightly, staring at Pei Zhiyang's back as she ran away quickly, not knowing what to think.

If there is no name on the list, she just uses this as an excuse to marry him and let him collect his heart and study.

But if he gets the jinshi, can she really let the merchant's daughter enter the door......

"Let's go, let's go, let's get trouble."

The little guy struggled to squeeze out the way and escorted Pei Zhiyang to the front of the list.

With black characters on a white background, hundreds of unfamiliar names, Pei Zhiyang was dizzy when he saw it.

His heart rose to his throat, and when he looked at it, he felt that he didn't even know a word.

Seeing that he was shaking, the little servant hurriedly grabbed his elbow and persuaded: "Young master, don't worry, there are so many names, let's look at them one by one." ”

Pei Zhiyang gritted his teeth and his eyes fell on the list again.

“…… I got it! Got in! ”

A burst of cheers erupted in the crowd, Pei Zhiyang subconsciously looked back, and saw a young man who was so excited that he hid his face and cried.

That person was dressed shabby, and it was not easy to think about it when he looked from a poor family.

But Pei Zhiyang doesn't care about others now.

His voice trembled slightly, and he grabbed the little guy and asked, "Did you find my name?" ”

"Not yet."

Pei Zhiyang sighed, and his heart couldn't stop sinking.

It's been three years, and he hasn't seen Hong Aya for almost three years.

Mrs. Pei said that if she really wanted that woman to live a decent and dignified life, he should not provoke her when he couldn't give her a name.

He didn't want Hong Aya to be treated as an eloped concubine.

As long as he is on the list, he can marry Hong Aya in a beautiful manner as agreed.

He pinched his palms and forced himself to look up at the list again.

There must be...... It's definitely going to be on the list!

The little guy next to him pinched his sweat and whispered out all the names on the list.

“…… Zhao, what is Zhao...... And then, Li Han...... Wang ......"

Pei Zhiyang didn't dare to think about anything, and almost didn't dare to look at the list.

The noise around him was getting louder and louder, and the noise was a mess in his mind.

He suddenly wanted to run away, wanted to turn around and yell, and then flew to find Hong Aya.

"Young Master!"

Xiao Xiao's voice trembled with excitement, and he pointed to the end of the list and said, "Young Master! You've won! ”

Pei Zhiyang was stunned, and the corners of his mouth rose unconsciously.

In the carriage, Mrs. Pei saw him walking back briskly, talking and laughing with the little guy beside him.

She smiled proudly at first, but quickly lowered the corners of her mouth......

Ninh House.

As soon as he had breakfast, Ning Fu took Yan Yingzhou and Ruan Si over.

Lao Pingxihou left a total of three sons and one daughter, and Yan Yingzhou's mother Ning Tianxin was the fourth daughter.

Many years ago, the Marquis of Pingxi drove to the west, and his eldest son, Ning Tiannan, attacked the lord and held important positions in the army.

The second and third rooms of the Ning family have also remained in the Pingxi Hou Mansion.

This time, it was his uncle Ning Tiannan who invited Yan Yingzhou over.

He was still young when he left Beijing with his grandmother and mother, and he didn't have much impression of this uncle.

In the past ten years, Ning Tiannan and the Yan family have never had any contact.

But as soon as he returned to the capital, the eldest uncle invited him to the mansion, as if he knew his whereabouts well.

Yan Yingzhou was unhappy in his heart, suggesting that Ruan Si should be more vigilant.

Ning Fu personally led the two of them to the hall, pointing out the scenery in the house everywhere along the way, and mentioning Miss Ning Si who died early from time to time.

"Young Master Yan, Master Hou has been missing the old more and more over the years, and he often thinks of the fourth young lady, and every time he talks about his dead sister, he has to secretly feel sad for a long time."

He smiled kindly, and said, "Please forgive the old slave for talking too much, Young Master Yan's eyes are very similar to the fourth miss." ”

"Since you know how to talk a lot," Yan Yingzhou glanced at him coldly, "It's better to keep your mouth shut." ”

"Yes, the old slave will go and invite Master Hou over."

Ning Fu glanced at him deeply, his eyes swept over Ruan Si's face, and then he bowed respectfully and retreated.

Yan Yingzhou clenched Ruan Si's hand, his eyes flickering slightly.

This is where his mother grew up.

Ruan Si shook it back hard, winked at him and smiled.

At the door, a dignified-looking middle-aged man walked in surrounded by everyone.

There was a beautiful woman in red clothes standing beside him, and the woman accompanied him into the house, and her eyes turned red when she saw Yan Yingzhou.

Yan Yingzhou and Ruan Si got up and saluted.

Ning Tiannan strode up to him, looked him up and down a few times, held his elbow and said, "Good boy, sit down." ”

The beautiful woman in the red cloth wiped her tears with a silk handkerchief, and cried in a low voice: "When I see my nephew, I think of the fourth girl......"

As she spoke, she sobbed weakly.

"Okay," Ning Tiannan sat down with the woman, "Madam, our family is reunited today, don't make everyone sad." ”

That woman was the Zhou family, the continuation lady that Ning Tiannan married two years ago.

Zhou stopped crying, wiped the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said softly: "Is it a concubine?" It's just that I've always been good friends with the fourth girl......"

Her gaze fell on Yan Yingzhou again, and she sighed sadly.

Yan Yingzhou never heard his mother mention any handkerchiefs.

His expression was cold and he did not speak.

Ning Tiannan first exchanged a few words with him, and then asked him if he could go to the prison of the Criminal Department to report for duty, and asked him to take Ruan Si and the child back to the Hou Mansion to live.

The more Ruan Si listened, the more shocked he became, and this person actually found out their bottom clearly.

Zhou looked at Ruan Si with a smile and said, "Although the children in the family are stubborn and stupid, it is good to bring your children here and be companions to each other." ”

Ruan Sigang wanted to refuse, but the little guy outside rushed in.

Ning Tiannan's face was displeased, and the little guy panted and said, "Master! The young master of the Pei family was admitted! ”
