Chapter 188: First
"Zhou Jiacheng, the one hundred and seventy-first on the list!" The man stood at the top of the stairs and shouted excitedly.
As his words fell, a man sitting in a seat got up excitedly and cheered loudly, and the people around him applauded him and congratulated him.
It didn't take long for someone to come up and report the good newsβ
"Zhang Guangsen, the 232nd on the list!"
"Li Feng, the one hundred and seventeenth on the list!"
"Sun Yuxuan, second on the list!"
"Wow!" This astonishing ranking was reported, and everyone looked at the man who was standing up at this moment and thanking everyone with a smile on his face.
The man was wearing a cyan robe and a jade crown, and he was dressed as an ordinary scholar, but he could vaguely see that this person's identity didn't seem to be ordinary.
"The second place is out." Zheng Yi raised the teacup, looked at Sun Yuxuan, and said.
"Xianggong, do you know that person?" Cai Xiaoxiao looked at Sun Yuxuan and asked Zhao Kangcheng.
Zhao Kangcheng shook his head: "It should be the first time to participate in the imperial examination." Looking at Sun Yuxuan's appearance, his age seems to be much younger than Zhao Kangcheng.
The annunciation continued, and the whole teahouse was filled with a joyful atmosphere, could it be that the talented people who were satisfied with the rankings threatened to invite guests to the audience, just like Cai Xiaoxiao had seen on TV before.
Butβ
"By the way, Zheng Yi, why are your people so slow?" Without waiting for the good news about Zhao Kangcheng to come out, Cai Xiaoxiao looked at Zheng Yi with a little dissatisfaction.
"No way, there are too many people gathered in front of the notice board." Zheng Yi pointed to the notice board outside and said with a dry smile.
Indeed, at the moment the notice board is overcrowded, and everyone is flocking to see what is on the notice board.
Cai Xiaoxiao supported his cheek with one hand and glanced at Zheng Yi with slanted eyes, which was regarded as accepting his statement.
At this time, someone came up again to report the good news, but it was still not Zheng Yi's person-
"Wu Yihan, third on the list!"
Now it's okay, and the third place is also out.
"Poof!" Cai Xiaoxiao couldn't help laughing.
Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi looked at her, and Zheng Yi asked suspiciously, "Sister-in-law, what are you laughing at?" β
Cai Xiaoxiao smiled: "I laugh at this person's name is really good, Wu Yihan, no regrets, poof......"
After Cai Xiaoxiao said this, Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi couldn't help laughing: "Indeed, it's a good name." β
"But now this teahouse is going to develop, and the second and third places are born here." Cai Xiaoxiao said.
"Soon the first place will be born from here." Zheng Yi looked at Zhao Kangcheng and said.
The two were talking, and suddenly there was a sound of "knock knock" going upstairs, Cai Xiaoxiao and the three of them turned their heads to look together, and Cai Xiaoxiao also said to Zheng Yi: "Don't say it's not your person this time." β
"Probably ......" Zheng Yi is not very sure.
When the person who went upstairs appeared at the staircase, Zheng Yi's eyes lit up, and he said happily: "It's our people!" β
When Cai Xiaoxiao heard this, his eyes became shiny in an instant, and he stared at the visitor tightly.
The person who came stood at the entrance of the building, looked around, and then found Zheng Yi's figure, and immediately ran to them: "Zheng Gongzi......"
"Say it! The result? Zheng Yi asked anxiously.
The man gasped for a moment, and after calming down his breathing, he said loudly: "Zheng Yi, the seventeenth on the list!" β
The people around "Papapa" applauded in a timely manner, and congratulated Zheng Yi one after another: "Congratulations." β
Zheng Yi and Cai Xiaoxiao blinked, and then looked at each other: "You actually took the seventeenth place / I actually took the seventeenth place!" Both looked incredulous.
Zhao Kangcheng couldn't help but feel funny when he saw the two of them like this, and then said to Zheng Yi sincerely: "Congratulations." β
"Ah, thank you, brother." Zheng Yi still looked a little disbelieving.
"And then? In addition to Zheng Yi, is there anything else? Cai Xiaoxiao asked the man.
"Ah, yes, yes." The man nodded, and then announced loudly with an excited face, "Zhao Kangcheng, I will try the first place!" β
For a moment, the scene was quiet, and soon, Cai Xiaoxiao was the first to react, and pounced on Zhao Kangcheng excitedly and excitedly, hugging Zhao Kangcheng's neck with both hands: "Xianggong!" Messire! You're number one! 1st place! I knew it! Hahahaha! β
Zheng Yi was also very happy, he first gave the person who gave the good news twenty taels of silver as a thank you gift, and then said to Cai Xiaoxiao excitedly: "Sister-in-law, you have hugged enough for me to hug my brother for a while!" β
"Don't!" Cai Xiaoxiao glared at Zheng Yi and simply refused Zheng Yi's request, "I'm a father-in-law, why do you let you hug me?" β
Zheng Yi: "Doesn't I want to touch my brother's joy." β
Compared with the excitement and happiness of the two, Zhao Kangcheng sat there calmly, looking at Cai Xiaoxiao and Zheng Yi with a smile in his eyes, cheering happily and fighting with each other.
The people around also reacted and stood up to give warm applause: "Congratulations!" "Although he is only the first in the examination, in fact, being able to be admitted to the first place in the examination actually shows that he is the best candidate for the top prize.
"I'll treat you to all the tea here today!" Zheng Yi waved his hand magnificently and said.
Cai Xiaoxiao was not happy, and said, "Why are you treated?" If you want to invite you, I'll treat you! β
Zheng Yi smiled: "Oh, sister-in-law, aren't it the same if you invite me, anyway, the most important thing is that my brother won the first place on the list!" β
Cai Xiaoxiao's face puffed out, still a little unhappy.
Zheng Yi didn't care about her, he had already given the silver to the shopkeeper.
Cai Xiaoxiao was helpless, and could only choose to take a step back: "Forget it, for the sake of your insistence, I will give it to you this time, but next time it will be me!" β
"Okay, sister-in-law!" Zheng Yi replied with a smile on his face.
"Then let's go back now, and I'll make you something to eat and celebrate." Cai Xiaoxiao proposed.
"yes, okay." Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi nodded in agreement.
So the three of them got up and prepared to leave.
When passing by everyone, everyone congratulated Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi, and Zhao Kangcheng and Zheng Yi returned the salute one by one with polite smiles on their faces: "Thank you, thank you, and rejoice together." β
When he was about to reach the staircase, Zhao Kangcheng's eyes inadvertently made eye contact with Sun Yuxuan and Wu Yihan, and the three of them nodded slightly at each other, then arched their hands tacitly and said in unison: "Congratulations!" β
The three of them were slightly stunned, and then smiled again: "Thank you." β
Zheng Yi and Cai Xiaoxiao looked at the three of them strangely: How did they feel a subtle atmosphere?
The three of them walked downstairs, and downstairs was also a scene of cheering and joy, and everyone was immersed in joy. Of course, there are also some people who are lost because they fell off the list.
