However, although they didn't like the second lady's interruption, since they had already asked, they were still looking forward to Zheng Yi's answer, so they didn't say anything, and looked at Zheng Yi in unison.

And the second lady was just swept away by the cold eyes of the old lady and the old lady, and her heart was startled, but seeing that the second lady did not blame her, she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, but then she felt aggrieved again: the old lady and the old lady spoil Zheng Yi on weekdays, although the second elder often says that the juniors in the family are treated equally, but as soon as Zheng Yi appears, the second elder only has Zheng Yi in his eyes, and he never restricts Zheng Yi, basically Zheng Yi can do whatever he wants.

Zheng Yi didn't mind being interrupted by the second lady like this, and he also knew that everyone wanted to know the result of his participation in the imperial examination this time, so he said: "It's nothing, I only took one exam and ranked seventeen." ”

"Seventeen will try?" Because Zheng Yi is going to participate in the imperial examination, everyone knows a little about the imperial examination and knows what the examination is, so after listening to Zheng Yi's words, they were all taken aback, and then the old lady said happily:

"Not bad, not bad. In the future, he will also be a tribute. ”

The old lady and the eldest lady also laughed happily.

The smiles on the corners of the mouths of the second master and the second lady were a little stiff.

At this time, the third master asked, "What about the palace test?" ”

Zheng Yi smiled, waved his hands, and said, "Third Uncle looks at me like this, needless to say, he should know that I am naturally off the list." ”

When the old lady heard this, she was relieved and said, "It's okay, it's normal to fail in the palace test, and it's already good to get a tribute." "It's not easy to get the top three in the palace exam, so the old lady didn't expect Zheng Yi to be able to take the middle hall exam at the beginning, and the seventeenth place in the exam is already very good in his opinion, and Zheng Yi doesn't like officialdom, so this result is already very good.

However, if he knew that Zheng Yi did not participate in the palace examination at all, it is estimated that even if he is satisfied, he will be able to jump up angrily, after all, the nature of not participating and participating in it are very different.

The third master also nodded and said, "Dad is right, it's the third uncle who is confused." ”

Zheng Yi said: "But although I didn't make the list, grandfather, do you know who the new champion is?" ”

Seeing that he had a smug and proud look on his face, the old lady's heart moved, and he asked tentatively: "Isn't it the 'Brother Zhao' that you often hang in your mouth?" ”

Zheng Yi nodded: "Grandfather is wise!" It's him! ”

Because Zheng Yi often mentioned Zhao Kangcheng and his wife in front of them, and they often patronized the business of Xiaocheng House, everyone also had a certain understanding of Zhao Kangcheng and his wife, and also knew that Zhao Kangcheng also went to participate in the imperial examination, so when they heard that he was the top student in high school, the old lady was still surprised and happy.

The old lady touched the beard with a thin chin, nodded, and said with a smile: "It's a talent." ”

Zheng Yi also smiled: "Grandfather doesn't know, Brother Zhao, he is not only the champion, he was also the first when he tried before. "Double first, but very few people can do it.

The old lady was slightly startled, and then her eyes were full of appreciation, and she said, "If you have time, invite people to our house as guests, after all, he and his wife have taken care of my grandson for so long, and we should also entertain them once." ”

The old lady agreed: "What the old lady said is that this matter will be handled by you." The latter sentence was said to Zheng Yi.

Zheng Yi got up and replied, "Grandson obeys." ”

……

Here, after Cai Xiaoxiao and Zheng Yi separated, the two decided to go to the hot pot restaurant first, because it was closer than the pastry shop.

When they came to the door of the hot pot restaurant, the two saw a long queue at the door, they were puzzled at first, and then they understood, guessing that these people were probably here to make reservations, after all, the hot pot restaurant only entertains thirty tables of guests a day.

And for the appearance of such a group of people, the people lining up at the door of the store were also puzzled, and they didn't understand where this group of people came from? Looking at the officers and soldiers behind them, everyone could see that they were from the government, but they didn't seem to be the clothes of the officers and soldiers under the prefect of their county.

Isn't it a big official who came to the people for a private visit? Someone speculated in his heart. However, it is obvious that he misunderstood the meaning of the words "micro-service private interview".

The hot pot restaurant is under the management of Zhang Mu and Li Yuan, but now everyone is busy entertaining guests, so they don't know what is going on outside, and they don't know that Cai Xiaoxiao and they are back.

Cai Xiaoxiao originally wanted to go in, but looking at this situation, he glanced inside again, and found that everyone inside was very busy, and as soon as they went in like this, it was estimated that it might cause trouble - Zhang Mu and Li Yuan would definitely be happy that they were back, but they didn't have time to entertain them, and it also affected them to entertain guests.

So Cai Xiaoxiao told Zhao Kangcheng that he couldn't go in, and Zhao Kangcheng decided with her. So the two of them got into the carriage and went to Aoki Academy - because going to the pastry shop and hot pot restaurant in the small town house is the same thing, so Cai Xiaoxiao decided to simply wait for them to close before going, and now go to Aoki Academy first to wait for Zhao Kangqiang and Zhao Xiaoli to get out of school, anyway, it is almost time for them to get out of school.

A group of people came to Aoki Academy, this was the first time Cai Xiaoxiao saw Aoki Academy, but she had long wanted to come and see it, because she heard that Zhao Kangcheng studied here when he was young, that is to say, Aoki Academy is Zhao Kangcheng's alma mater!

Zhao Kangcheng looked at Aoki Academy, his eyes were filled with a hint of nostalgia, and he couldn't help but think of the time when he was studying here.

Seeing him like this, Cai Xiaoxiao asked him softly, "Do you want to visit?" She knew that Zhao Kangcheng's mentor was also teaching there, and he was a real mentor, not a mentor like Zuo Xiang.

She also knew that because of what happened nine years ago, Xu is Zhao Kangcheng felt ashamed of his teacher, and he hadn't visited his teacher for nine years.

When Zhao Kangcheng heard Cai Xiaoxiao's proposal, his eyes were a little hesitant, and he said softly: "Teacher, I'm just afraid that he doesn't want to see me." After all, he hadn't visited his old man's home for nine years.

Cai Xiaoxiao comforted: "If you don't go to see him, how do you know if he is willing to see you?" Let's go. With that, she lifted the curtain, fell off the carriage, and then turned around and looked at Zhao Kangcheng.

Zhao Kangcheng looked at her and didn't move.

Cai Xiaoxiao said: "Xianggong, I am your wife, don't you want to take me to meet the teacher who has the grace of education for you?" ”

Zhao Kangcheng was stunned, and then smiled: "It's my negligence." Then he walked out of the carriage, stepped out of the carriage, and took Cai Xiaoxiao's hand, "It's me who is too worried." ”

Cai Xiaoxiao curled her lips and smiled: "Let's go." ”

The two of them walked towards the gate of the academy in unison, and the two scholars guarding the gate of the academy were already puzzled when they saw this group of officers and soldiers coming at the beginning, especially when they saw the group of officers and soldiers behind them, they were a little stunned, thinking: Which big man is coming?
