Chapter 158
On the day when the rankings were released, both Wang Zhanjun and Lin Ruhai knew what they were doing, and they were not in a hurry to know the results.Lin Daiyu originally didn't care about these foreign things, but she was worried about Wang Zhanjun's future.Seeing that Lin Ruhai and Wang Zhanjun seemed to have nothing to do with them, he couldn't help but secretly angry, and he was here to worry about them.They were fine, sitting there peacefully drinking tea.

"Brother Zhanjun, you don't worry about whether you can make the list at all."

"Didn't my sister never care about these things? Why are you restless today?"

Lin Daiyu was annoyed: "You, people worry about you, you still have the mood to joke around here."

"Sister, don't be upset. Brother Lin's test paper has been read by Uncle Lin, and he said it's all right, so why should we worry about it?"

While talking, a servant outside reported, "My lord has passed the exam, No. 5."

Lin Ruhai, who was originally sitting on the sidelines watching the joke, stood up suddenly, "Well, well! Thank you."

Lin Daiyu didn't care about bickering with Wang Zhanjun at this time, and ordered: "All the people in the house will reward three months of monthly money, and the servants on the other side of Tonghua Lane will also reward three months of monthly money."

For a while, the Lin family rejoiced endlessly.

Tonghua Lane is Wang Zhanjun's house. Originally, Wang Zhanjun was going to move there, but the Lin family hadn't had such a happy event for a long time, so Lin Ruhai stayed with Wang Zhanjun for a while.

The servants near the house kept congratulating Wang Zhanjun, and it took a long time before they calmed down.Lin Ruhai didn't stop them either, maybe the Lin family won't go through this kind of situation again.

"Zhan Jun, although I guessed that your grades are good, I didn't expect them to be so high. Next, you need to prepare well for the imperial examination, maybe you can enter the first class."

Although Wang Zhanjun didn't pursue the ranking too much, but he couldn't live up to Lin Ruhai's kindness, so he could only accept it.

Lin Ruhai has a high official position and was born in Tanhua. Many people who knew that Wang Zhanjun lived in his house came to visit.These people are all in the same age as Wang Zhanjun. Lin Ruhai knows the importance of the same-year relationship in the officialdom, so he will meet those people whenever he has time.

Lin Daiyu saw the students who had passed the exam come to visit one after another, and Lin Ruhai enjoyed it, and also arranged people to entertain these students with all her heart.

For a while, the Lin family was very lively.

A few days later, the Jia family heard about the grand occasion of the Lin family.

This makes people have to say that the Jia family is slow.The Jia family never cared about such an important matter.Other families in the capital, no matter what, are thinking of getting to know more disciples to pave the way for their children.The Jia family was immersed in their own world, putting on the airs of the Duke's mansion, and only Jia Zheng raised a few flattering literati to pretend to be facades.

When Jia's mother heard the news, she was also shocked. The boy who thought she was just attached to the Lin family turned into No.5 in the blink of an eye.You must know that he is only two years older than Baoyu. On the other hand, Baoyu is now more and more reluctant to go to school, and hangs out with girls all day long.

Jia Mu also felt confused about Baoyu's future.Although there is this empress in the palace, often the empress also talks about studying and improving, and raising her well.This shows that the empress also hopes that Baoyu will pass the imperial examination through her own efforts.

However, Baoyu is unwilling to study, and the only hope is the title of knighthood.I hope that the empress can conceive the prince soon, and use the glory of the prince to ask Baoyu for a title.

Mother Jia was thinking about a lot of things at this moment, she turned around and said to Wang Xifeng, "Wang Zhanjun lives at Uncle Lin's house, so he has something to do with our family. If you prepare some gifts for him, you can be regarded as our family Congratulations to him."

Wang Xifeng might as well ask Mother Jia to ask someone to give Wang Zhanjun a gift. She quickly realized it and said with a smile: "The old lady is still generous. I will prepare a good gift and send it to the Lin family."

Seeing that Mother Jia didn't explain anything else, Wang Xifeng went down to prepare.

Mrs. Wang didn't understand what Jia Mu meant, so she hesitated for a moment, and then asked: "Old lady, why did you give him a gift?"

Mother Jia was not in the mood to take aim at Mrs. Wang, took a sip of tea, and said, "Uncle Lin has kept him in the mansion, so it can be seen that this person's character has been recognized by Uncle Lin. Now he has won No.5 in the general examination. After passing the imperial examination, at least he will be a second-class Jinshi. If Baoyu enters the officialdom in the future, he will inevitably have the help of his friends in the same year, wouldn't this be a good candidate."

What the old lady said was reasonable, and Mrs. Wang certainly understood the principle of helping each other.Anyway, Mrs. Wang doesn't feel bad for things like pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

"What the old lady said is that I will also prepare some things later, and let Feng girl send them over."

Jia Mu was very happy with Mrs. Wang's knowledge, and said with a smile: "You go back and prepare. I will advise Baoyu to read and write with all her heart."

The relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law that had just eased has returned to the past.Both of them knew that exhorting Baoyu to study was a difficult problem, and they both wanted the other to do it.But neither of them is a fool, and they don't want to let Baoyu separate from themselves, so they can only continue in this stalemate.

When Wang Zhanjun received the congratulatory gift from Jia's mansion, he was still a little puzzled. You gave the gift to build a good relationship, but you just sent a servant over for nothing.Who can still remember your family because of this idea.

Lin Ruhai shook his head helplessly when he heard what the Jia family was doing, and said to Wang Zhanjun: "You said that if the Jia family really wanted to build a good relationship with you, they should let the second uncle bring Baoyu over, and give gifts so dryly. , what a matter."

Wang Zhanjun also couldn't figure out why, the only thing he knew was that Jia Lian knew him, but the Jia family didn't know.Otherwise, it was also a gift prepared by Wang Xifeng, so why did it come in two parts, and I also made it clear which one was from Jia Lian.

Although he was not interested in the Jia family, Wang Zhanjun had no choice but to prepare a good return gift for the Jia family because of Lin Ruhai and Lin Daiyu's face.

"Girl, the young master told me to prepare a return gift for the Rongguo Mansion. When you arrange someone to greet the old lady, please help bring it there." Xianghui came to Lin Daiyu's yard with the gift she had prepared.

"Sister Xianghui came just in time. I'm about to send someone to pay my grandmother a visit. You can give the gift to Sister-in-law Ping. Sister-in-law Ping, you can bring brother Zhanjun's gift to grandmother." Lin Daiyu will make arrangements every few days Someone went to say hello to Jia's mother. This time, the Jia's family brought gifts to Wang Zhanjun. She originally prepared some and arranged for someone to send them to Jia's mansion.

Xianghui said with a smile: "That's good, I'm afraid Sister-in-law Ping has already left."

Lin Daiyu asked again: "Xianghui, what is brother Zhan Jun doing? Is he preparing for the imperial examination?"

Xianghui said: "Girl, I don't understand the books you read. But you are no different from the old days."

Lin Daiyu had no other intentions, but saw that Lin Ruhai was in a good mood after he took the high school exam, and hoped that Wang Zhanjun could also get a good grade in the palace exam, so that Lin Ruhai could continue to be happy for a while.
