In the autumn light, the breeze is gentle and the water is murmuring.

When a group of scholars came over from the bridge, Ye Zifan noticed the scene under the rockery and smiled.

Cao Hu fan's footsteps stopped slightly, turned around the girl and Ye Qing, and smiled: "Looking at the pergola below, it can be seen that the Ye family is prosperous, and there is such a prosperous scene!"

Ye Zifan was not a little gloomy at this time, and swayed freely: "Lord Cao praised it falsely, with the teaching of the Taijun of the house, your family has only called talents over the years, and most of my nephews and nephews are not successful, and they always have to be beaten to make progress." ”

Cao Hu smiled a little more, and everyone still likes to listen to this good word.

Ye Zifan stretched out his hand to extend the invitation and signaled: "Please take a seat." ”

"Don't dare!" Cao Hu Fan sat down, glanced at the faintly divided crowd of 369 below, and secretly thought in his heart: "The Ye family is well-dressed, but compared to twenty years ago, it is inferior. ”

On the pergola platform, there was a stranger coming, which made some whispers of speculation sound below, Cao Baijing pursed her lips disdainfully, but asked Ye Qing with a smile: "Who do you guess this is?"

Ye Qing glanced at it and said casually: "Hu Cao!"

"Hey, how do you know Lu Dao?" Cao Baijing was a little surprised, and lowered her voice: "Daddy, but I just returned from a study tour this year!"

seems to be low-key, but it is clearly showing off.

Ye Qing looked at the girl's somewhat similar face to Cao Hufan on the stage, his heart moved, and he explained: "Although I don't wear an official uniform, there is still a coat of arms on the brocade dress, which can be seen at a glance." ”

The six Cao in the county, the minimum standard for the chief lawsuit Cao is that he was born as a child, and he is basically a Xiucai to serve, but Xiucai is only a basic condition, and in reality, most of them feel that the exam is hopeless, and they have taken refuge in a certain Taoist sect.

"Uncle looks very young, he has served as Si Cao since he returned from his travels, I don't know where to learn?" Ye Qing cut into the topic, and he was slandered in his heart.

Cao Baijing didn't know what to think, and was scratched to the place: "Xiaoqingzi really has a vision, my sister told you, Jinshan Evergreen Mansion, you haven't had a ......"

While chattering, the Cao Hu fan on the pergola platform looked at this side from time to time.

Seeing this, Ye Qing smiled kindly, and all kinds of funny words made Cao Bai Jingjiao laugh non-stop, unconsciously moving her delicate body, and gradually sitting closer and closer to Ye Qing.

It aroused the envy and jealousy of the nearby clan brothers, and they tried to talk to each other just now, but they never had this treatment!

Before you know it, the day is rising, and everyone has no intention of talking, and gradually they all look into the distance.

Even if it is a family in the county, it can't change the fact that there are only 20 children in a county every three years, and a family has limited resources for each person, and if it has to compete with other counties, who can guarantee that the children will be born?

Children are so difficult, and further up, even a main son like Ye Zifan can only stop showing his talents, you can imagine how difficult it is.

Seeing the atmosphere of everyone, Cao Baijing frowned and shook the fan twice: "Hmph, men, they are all people who tend to be inflammatory!"

When Ye Qing heard this, he couldn't help laughing: "Sister, if a man has no achievements and doesn't tend to be inflammatory, I'm afraid you will look down on you." ”

However, there are very few drama scenes on the earth where Fan Jinzhong lifts, and anyone who can be in the middle can cultivate the Dao Fa without irritating him to go crazy or have a stroke.

Even a big family like the Ye family has rules, all those who have a middle school child, as long as they don't go up to the exam, they will support the supplementary officials.

Ye Zifan has taken a show, but he presides over it at home, there are very few!

As the saying goes: "The county order is changed one term after another, and the little officials do it for a lifetime." ”

Although as soon as he became a high-ranking official, he basically eliminated the imperial examination, but these small officials constituted the long-lasting prosperity of the family, so that the Taoist and imperial power had to compromise for it and the cornerstone of the profound strength!

However, these can't be explained, Ye Qing only changed his words: "And if you win, your status in the clan will rise, no wonder everyone pays attention to it." ”

Cao Baijing glanced at him: "There's no need to explain it so clearly, anyway, my sister can't understand your man's mind, and she doesn't care about dogs and cats." ”

This girl has a sharp mouth!

Ye Qing didn't dare to provoke, so he wisely shut up and changed the topic.

Soon, it was noon, everyone gradually showed a disappointed look, there are only five good news teams in the county, generally speaking, there can be good news in the morning, it is the top ten, and it is basically the last ten around noon, but as long as it can be hit, it is a happy event!

Cao Baijing and Ye Qing were sitting side by side at this time, either the mats were separated, or the etiquette pattern of the couple.

She didn't notice the strange eyes around her, but she felt that she had never talked so happily, and then she couldn't help but worry: "Qingzi, are you really in the middle of it? It's past noon......

Seeing the passage of time, Ye Zifan on the stage couldn't hold it anymore, and thought to himself: "Could it be that no one in my clan has been hit this year?"

Seeing the sun rising, the atmosphere of Yefu East Lake Garden became gloomy.

Ye Qingping was calm, there was sweat behind him, and he muttered imperceptibly: "Could it be that with my temperament, the luck of the clan and the golden cup, the combination of the three, can't be hit?"

Just thinking about it, he smelled a faint fragrance, Cao Bai quietly covered the fan, and cautiously approached and asked, "Qingzi, ...... It's okay, is it?"

"Uh, it's okay!" Ye Qing said, and at this moment, Cao Hu Fan coughed heavily on the stage.

Cao Baijing realized that the two were a little ambiguous, slightly reddened, and quickly sat up straight, she felt a little strange in her heart, how could she inadvertently lose the guard between men and women, hesitated whether to sit away, and only said: "That's good......"

However, this cough smashed into the water, causing layers of ripples, and several clan elders on the stage took advantage of the maneuver, and the following "buzzed"!

The small circles in the forest, in the pavilion, and by the stream whispered.

"Why haven't you come yet, we haven't had a single child in the Ye family this year?"

"It's unimaginable. ”

"At least one in the last session, this is the bottom line......"

"The hour has not yet come, and it will be half an hour before we will know!"

As he was talking, a gong sounded in the distance, and listening to this sound, Ye Zifan suddenly stood up in a gaffe, no matter what, someone in the clan was born as a child.

The next moment, there was a faint neighing of horses, and a loud voice was heard: "Congratulations to high school! Congratulations to high school!"

The people below suddenly showed joy, and said discussively: "There are still people in our Ye clan who are in high school, so I don't know who Lu Dao is?"

At this time, the three Ye family disciples all clenched their fists, and although they were sitting, they were all looking into the distance.

Ye Sheng was even more unconscious, and his grip was broken.

In the expectant eyes of everyone, Steward Xu of Fuzhong hurriedly came in, with a happy face, kowtowed to the platform and said, "Congratulations Ye Qing, the nineteen children of Pingshou County of Qinggongzi High School!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was stunned, and for a while, the people on the stage and in the pergolas below were silent, and they could even hear a needle.

Cao Hu Fan was shocked in his heart, and when he swept his eyes, he could see that Ye Zifan's face was blue in an instant, but in the blink of an eye, he returned to his usual demeanor, and secretly admired it in his heart.

"Nineteen, so backward-" A crisp female voice said, which immediately attracted everyone's attention, Cao Baijing saw everyone's attention, and hurriedly covered his face with a fan, feeling ashamed.

Ye Zifan had calmed down at this time, and stood up in front of everyone: "Everyone, this is a great joy in the clan, it is every session, our Ye family has someone who can be on the list, and our Ye family can develop, now it is a child, or in the future, it may be the same as me, and even win the promotion, and the Jinshi!"

"I'll report to the patriarch at once, it's not too early, please all of you come to the feast!" he said, arching his hand and turning to leave.

The clansmen got the results, some were dissatisfied, some were envious, some were resentful, but more were still happy, no matter what, some of the clansmen were born as children, which was a small progress in the clan.

Ye Sheng moved unwillingly, refusing to leave his seat, Ai Ai said: "The hour has not yet come, I have to wait for ......"

The girl in Tsing Yi shy hid her face with one hand, pulled his sleeve with the other, and urged in a low voice: "Don't talk about the young master, if you don't leave, you will have to eat a good meal from the master......

But seeing Ye Qing sitting motionless, turning into a clay sculpture, everyone smiled at this time, and did not urge, the clan knew Ye Qing's history - his parents died early, he was neglected, only a maid was accompanied, and there were many contradictions recently, but at this time, with this boy, everything disappeared.

Everyone left him time to calm down.

"Ah......" Cao Zijing received his father's eyes, and was a little reluctant to get up, walked a few steps, and shouted: "Qingzi, don't forget to come over to play in the Mid-Autumn Festival, don't forget that you still owe me poems, they have been delayed for half a year, and if you delay it any longer, it will be a dowry!"

"What nonsense is the girl talking about?" Cao Hu staggered, the green tendons on his forehead jumped, and he almost raised his sleeves to hide his face, and pulled this daughter to go faster.

Ye Qing covered his forehead helplessly, but his eyes narrowed slightly between his fingers, looking at the threatening gesture behind the girl, he smiled bitterly and whispered: "Thank you, I will go to the appointment!"

There is a price to help, and no scheming does not mean that you can be underestimated, and no one is a fool!

As for the person who reported the good news, his own clan sent it, and the steward came over on purpose, saying: "Congratulations to Qing Gongzi, please also ask Qing Gongzi to scatter money!"

As he spoke, he heard a gong again, but this was his own person, carrying a whole load of money, all of them were shining with Huang Chengcheng.

Ye Qing had no choice but to step forward, first one or two pieces of silver per person, and gave it to the good news team from the county, and then, the people in the house also came to ask for money, and everyone was surrounded by a noise, all of them were full of smiles: "Young Master Qing, rejoice!"

It seems that before, there was no Wu Tiezi at all, and there was no such thing as uniting to squeeze out Ye Qing, Ye Qing also smiled, and when everyone came up, they grabbed a large handful of copper coins and sent them down one by one.

After receiving the news, Qianqian, who hurried over, was about to run over, but seeing this situation, she somehow hid in a corner and watched against the wall.

Looking at it, tears fell, the sadness of the past five years suddenly splashed out with tears, she was proud and aggrieved, just looked into the distance: "Master, madam, have you seen it?
