Lin Rong only took the first two exams, the county exam and the government exam, so he came back a day earlier than Xu Yunqing.

When everyone entered the house, Xu Yunqing greeted the elders and called Lin Rong away.

"How do you feel, are you sure you'll get in?"

Lin Rong and Xu Yunqing seem to be cold and untalkative on the outside, but Xu Yunqing has an impersonal momentum when facing outsiders, while Lin Rong is relatively peaceful.

There is not much difference in age between the two, they have been in the same school since they were in the north before, Xu Yunqing has also been taking care of the two brothers, he still knows Lin Rong's level, but he is also worried about whether there will be any accidents.

"I'm sure that this year's exam questions are not very difficult, but the ranking may not be very high."

As soon as Lin Rong sat down, he heard Xu Yunqing ask him, he was still sure about this exam.

He thinks that he is not as smart as his cousin, and he became a child at the age of ten, but he can make up for his clumsiness with diligence and is still talented.

"That's good, then I want to take you to Fucheng Academy with us, do you want to go with you?" The gentleman there is better than the gentleman in the county."

Xu Yunqing wants to cultivate his cousin well, and in the future, he can't only have a developed family, and his relatives and friends will still stay in place.

And Lin Rong's talent is not bad, but I don't know what Lin Yi's kid wants to do in the future.

"I ......"

Lin Rong was a little hesitant, it would cost more money to go to Fucheng, although his parents were now working in the town.

Xu Yunjin's salary is high, and the two of them can earn six or seven taels of silver a month combined, but he doesn't want his parents to work so hard.

"You don't have to worry about money, if the business of the shop gets better and better in the future, my uncle's wages will definitely rise.

As long as you succeed in your studies, you can let your grandfather and them enjoy happiness in the future, you go back and discuss with your grandfather and them, and after the results come out, we will pack up and go to the capital city, and we will live in the county lord's mansion in the future."

Lin Rong thought about it and nodded in agreement, his cousin was right, only if he succeeds in his studies, can he better repay his grandfather and parents.

On the other side, Xu Yunjin took Lin Yi to the backyard.

"Cousin Yi, Cousin Rong has gone to take the exam, you don't want to study, so what do you want to do, you don't want to go to the fields and farm every day in the future, then your uncle will beat you to death."

Xu Yunjin also looked at Lin Yi a little big, this is a bear child in modern times.

I don't like to study, I think about going up the mountain and going to the sea every day, and I don't know how to teach.

On the carriage, she and Xu Yunqing worked together, he was responsible for persuading Lin Rong to go to school in Fucheng, and she was responsible for figuring out what Lin Yi wanted to do.

"Ah Jin, actually...... Actually, I just want to do business, I don't want to go to school, I want to make money."

Lin Yi was a little shy, he knew that he was naughty, but there was no way, he really couldn't sit still, and he wanted to sleep as soon as he entered the school.

When he saw the villagers who went out to sell tofu, his heart flew away, and he also wanted to do business.

"Cousin Yi, if you want to learn to do business, you must also study hard, otherwise do you think business is so easy to do, or do you just want to be a merchant who walks the streets."

"No, no, no, I don't want to be a merchant like Grandpa Wang, I want to be a powerful businessman."

Lin Yi's dream is not something that can be satisfied by a small merchant, but Xu Yunjin is a little hesitant, he doesn't know whether to support Lin Yi or not, and businessmen can't easily participate in the imperial examination.

If the descendants of merchants want to participate in the imperial examination, they must have made a significant contribution to the imperial court, and the emperor can be gracious in order to have one or two places.

Just like the merits of the Han family, only three people can go to the scientific examination after twenty years.

Although merchants were not allowed to participate in the imperial examination, there were also loopholes that took advantage of loopholes to record the family's property in the name of their wives and daughters, as was the case with the Xu family.

But this method is limited to making some money in small fights, simply put, as long as the family is not a merchant before becoming an official.

After becoming an official, his wife and children are strong, and his own business is good, so it's not my business.

This is too

is acquiesced by officialdom and the court, otherwise with this money, he can't afford to support those big families.

But Lin Yi's ambition is not small, and once the business grows bigger, I am afraid it will be difficult to operate.

"Cousin Yi, I support you to have your own dreams, but I can't support you to fulfill your dreams, you should know that your descendants can't participate in the imperial examination after being a businessman.

Grandparents, uncles, and aunts may not agree with you to do it, but if you convince them, I will let you learn how to manage the workshop with your aunt first, but you must at least be a child, otherwise you will not be deceived when you go out to do business."

Lin Yi's eyes lit up, he has no offspring, besides, it is enough to be an official with his brother, he is responsible for making money, and he will definitely be able to convince his grandfather and mother.

"Ah Jin, don't worry, I will persuade my grandfather and father to buy you flowers to wear when my cousin makes a lot of money in the future."

Xu Yunjin......

Why do you repay me by buying me flowers to wear, I don't want it.

The results of the children's exams were announced seven days after the exams, and for the next few days, both families were anxiously waiting.

Xu Wen returned to Fucheng the next day, planning to come back soon after the results were announced, his time was tight and the task was heavy, so it would be best if he could learn more things from Zhao Ting.

After all, he is not Xu Yunqing is still young, he is thirty years old, even if he is admitted to the Jinshi and becomes an officer next year, he will be thirty-one years old, and his age is indeed not young.

"Bell, bell."

There was a sound of gongs, and two yacha people carried the gongs from the entrance of the village and ran straight to Lin's house, shouting as they ran:

"Congratulations to Lin Rong, the young master of the Lin family in Shuiluo Village, who was admitted to the middle school and ranked eleventh." c

The neighbors who heard the movement had already gathered around Lin's house, and there were congratulatory voices from the crowd.

Several members of the Lin family were happy, and Lin Dali hurriedly gave the two yacha a purse, and said with a smile:

"Thank you, sir, you came from afar to inform us that we have worked hard, and the little meaning is not a tribute, so the official will take it to drink some tea to moisten his throat."

Lin Dali handed the purse to one of the yacha and said, touching the purse in his hand, the yacha's eyes were smiling, such a large piece is definitely not a copper plate, I am afraid that there are two taels of silver.

"Where, congratulations to Mr. Lin, he was born at a young age, and his future is bright, and we are happy to accept it."

As soon as the two yacha here walked for a while, another team of yacha came, this time they went straight to the Xu family, and the Lin family also saw the yacha, and hurried to the door of the Xu family as soon as the door was closed.

Xu Yunzhao was also watching the excitement at the Lin family, and saw that the yacha ran faster than anyone else, so the yacha had not yet arrived, and the Xu family was already waiting at the door.

"Congratulations to Xu Yunqing, the young master of the Xu family in Shuiluo Village, who was admitted to Xiucai and ranked first, and was the first in Yongding County."

It was as if all the sounds had stopped abruptly, and it took a moment for people to react.

The head of the case, that's the number one!

The people of Shuiluo Village are happy for the Xu family, after all, the people in the village have the ability, and they will have a place to rely on when they go out in the future.

Several women in the family covered their mouths and red eyes, and Xu Yunmeng also turned his back to wipe his tears.

Only Xu Yunjin looked at Xu Yunqing with admiration, his brother was equivalent to the champion of the high school entrance examination in his previous life, I am afraid that he is much more than the champion of the high school entrance examination.

Old man Xu also took out a purse and handed it to the yacha, which was heavier than the purse given by the Lin family.

"Grandpa, grandma, uncle, aunt, father, mother, the child has lived up to your expectations."

After the yacha left, Xu Yunqing picked up the long-distance run and knelt in front of the Xu family, and the words he said made the old man Xu choke up and said several hellos, and quickly pulled Xu Yunqing up, and then said to the people in the village who were watching the excitement:

"Today is a good day, Lin Rong's Lin Rong was admitted to Tongsheng, and my family's Yunqing was also admitted to Xiucai, our village is happy today, today's workshop is a day off, we set up a banquet in the workshop, and everyone comes to be lively together."

The people of Shuiluo Village are also happy, and there are two more meritorious people in the village, and the other villages are afraid that they are all envious to death.

After saying congratulations several times in a row, they all rushed to the workshop to help, and they had to eat and drink well to be happy today.
