The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 146
When she came out of the house, Fang Qingqing also brought copper coins out.

She stuffed the large string of money into the hands of her mother-in-law, even if she didn't say much, the tacit understanding between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law existed.

Seeing so many copper coins, Shi felt a little bit reluctant and—

As soon as he gritted his teeth, he directly stuffed all his brains to the yamen servant who came to announce the good news.

This is quite a lot, and the county officials who came to announce the good news were very happy.

There have always been rewards for good news, but some people don't know the rules and some don't have the confidence in their families, so they often just give a crooked melon and date of three to five cents.

It's rare to see someone as sensible as this newly appointed Master Juren's family
It's no wonder that he can raise a famous Juren master, seeing that his parents and daughter-in-law are also sensible.

So the yamen servant first said some compliments, and then reminded Li Sanlang to change into decent clothes and go to the county yamen to meet the magistrate.

Afterwards, the magistrate will personally go to the province to attend the Luming Banquet with him.

So Li Xiuping repeatedly bowed in the direction of the county government, but asked: "How can a late student be valued by adults? I'm really ashamed."

The yamen servant was clever enough to snatch the job of announcing the good news, and praised again and again:

"Master Juren, don't be self-effacing, Master Juren is not only the best in our provincial examination, but also the youngest Master Juren in the history of this province.

My lord has always admired scholars, so when I got this news, I wanted to have a chat with Master Juren. "

The magistrate of their family was not born in a serious imperial examination, and he admired those poor children who could change their families through studying.

Especially Li Xiuping's good grades can also be recorded in the county magistrate's political achievements.

So the county magistrate, who was very interested, also sent a reward when he sent the servants to announce the good news today.

The yamen servant's trip was worthwhile.

Not to mention the bustle on their side, old man Li over there was still in a dream, his eyes widened and he didn't come back to his senses for a long time.

It was Shi Shi who felt that he hadn't seen it, so he pinched his waist hard, and the painful old man Li woke up.

After confirming that the news was true, he cried and laughed at the same time.

"I got it, my son got it, my son really got it!"

"God bless, my ancestors showed their spirits, and my family's Saburo passed the exam!"

You know, Saburo was a sick child with poor health since he was a child, but he has always insisted on sending him to study.

It's also because it's even more unbearable to work in the fields like Saburo.

It is conceivable how much pressure the old man Li has endured these years, working hard day and night for Saburo to study.

Moreover, the three sons in the family and the old couple did not drink a bowl of water. The eldest and second child are okay, and their daughter-in-law must have some opinions in their hearts.

For this reason, the two elders secretly endured a lot of stares and bad words.

Now it's finally healed, Saburo Zhongju, and the suffering they suffered all these years is finally not in vain.

Probably because Li Sanlang really did well in the exam this time, and because some neighbors inevitably said bad things when waiting for the news.

In order to ease the relationship now and also for the sake of the future, the neighbors all gave heavy gifts, such as fish and meat, the four treasures of the study, and some even gave money directly.

After all, those who can live in a spacious house in the county are generally not too poor in family conditions.

Li Sanlang personally stood beside his parents to check, and would not accept any gifts exceeding [-] Wen, and only said that he would not be rewarded for his merits.

After all, today is really busy, so I just say that I will have a banquet at home to invite everyone to have a lively and lively time.

The matter of going to see the county magistrate was of course very important, and he didn't care about celebrating and sharing the joy with his family. Li Xiuping changed his clothes, took two pieces of money from his wife, and followed the yamen servants to the direction of the county yamen.

But here, the excitement of Lao Li's house is still going on, even if Master Juren refuses to accept heavy gifts, the neighbors are not willing to leave immediately.

They gathered around old man Li and Shi Shi, congratulated them, and ate some wedding candy from Master Juren's house along the way.

The happiest thing is the children, not only can eat a lot of sweets and snacks, but also pick up firecrackers that have not sounded on the ground and play again.

Old man Li and Mrs. Shi were discussing, since the third middle school said that this is a big deal, there should be a lot of fun and a drink.

But even though they moved to the county seat, since their roots are still in their hometown, it should be better to go back to run wine.

Among the four happy events in life, the title of the gold list is the first one,

Although Saburo is currently only in the provincial examination, for the Li family, the excitement is as high as that of the Chinese New Year.

Wealth and honor do not return home, such as brocade clothes walking at night, they will not say the same truth, but they understand it.

For example, Shi's natal family has no close relatives in recent years, but the three daughters-in-law's natal families are still there, including Sister Li, who has been married for many years, and should also bring them back for a drink this time.

Of course, all of this will have to wait for Li Xiuping to come back from the province after attending the Luming Banquet.

This time it was a business, and the county magistrate took the lead, so naturally Fang Qingqing would not go with her.

The Luming Banquet is usually held on the second day after the township examination results are released, but because Li Xiuping doesn't live in the provincial capital, he and the county magistrate must be leaving this afternoon.

To rush to the provincial capital before nightfall and find an inn to stay in is also for myself to rest and tidy up.

So that the next day, you can meet friends through literature with a better mental outlook.

In addition to the masters who passed the exam, all the gentlemen from the prefecture school were present at the Lu Ming banquet this time, so Li Xiuping couldn't help but raise a glass with other Juren to toast the teachers.

In addition, the academic officer who took good care of him and explained the article to him in private was also present, Li Xiuping even went to respect him alone.

You also need to make friends with each other, the main reason is that Li Xiuping rarely drinks alcohol, but today he almost overdose.

Fortunately, there was a hangover pill prepared by his wife in advance. After taking it, he finally cleared his mind. Afterwards, Li Xiuping only talked about some poems and articles with his teacher and a few people he knew well.

He didn't drink anymore, even if many people offered to toast because of his name, Li Xiuping refused them all.

It is not a secret that he has been weak since he was a child. Fortunately, the rest of the people also understood that they did not continue to persuade him to drink.

This banquet lasted for almost two hours, and they didn't eat much. Most of the people were asking each other for advice and articles after drinking.

As a result, after the banquet, most people got drunk, and only Li Xiuping remained sober.

There is also the senior officer, because of his seniority and respect, after drinking three glasses of wine at the beginning, he said that he is not good at drinking and will not drink again.

After that, no one really asked him for alcohol, so he was able to keep a clear mind until the end.

Because of this, when seeing Li Xiuping who was still awake, he showed appreciation and relief.

Smart enough and willing to work hard, coupled with strong self-control, the future of this child is bound to be limitless!
