Geng Xingshuang looked at her second brother and then at Geng Xingchen. One smiled cunningly and proudly, while the other smiled awkwardly and shyly.

Geng Xingshuang rolled her eyes and suddenly remembered that at dinner last night, her father said that her third uncle dragged him to see the list. Her father was still confused that his third uncle wanted to see who was on the list.

"The third child is mysterious and has a weird smile. He doesn't know what he is doing. He even asked me to bring all the servants around me."

Geng Xingshuang remembered what her father had said helplessly to her mother.

"Could it be that Third Uncle is going to help Seventh Sister get you a husband?"

Geng Xingshuang blurted out.

"Sixth sister, huh, you and your second brother are bullying me together!"

Geng Xingchen blushed with embarrassment and stomped into the carriage.

"I guessed it right?" Geng Xingshuang blinked. Didn't the third aunt fall in love with the young master of Yongqing Houfu?

Geng Shuhuai got on his horse and rolled his eyes, "Then guess, why did I drag you to look at the rankings so early in the morning?"

"Um... isn't it my second brother that you like fun?"

"I'm doing this for your own good. If Yang Liu looks like that, if he is on the list this time, think about it. Even the third uncle wants to snatch a son-in-law back from the family. You are not afraid of Yang Liu being robbed. Go back and become someone else's husband? But who made you my sister? Don't worry, as long as I'm here, no one can take away my future brother-in-law."

Geng Xingshuang was stunned for a moment, but she didn't expect that her second brother was worried that Yang Qingmo would be snatched away.

"Second brother, have you forgotten Brother Yang Liu's martial arts? If he can be snatched away, unless someone with higher martial arts than him comes..."

"How about otherwise?"

"Otherwise, he is willing to be snatched away. If that's the case, then I wouldn't be surprised."

"Oh? Not rare?"

Geng Xingshuang was stunned. The voice was wrong. She quickly turned her head and looked over. It turned out that there was a man and a horse standing beside Geng Shuhuai. Yang Qingmo led a black horse with shiny fur and was looking at her, with the corners of her lips pursed slightly.

"Uh..." Geng Xingshuang was a little embarrassed, "Brother Yang Liu, why are you here?"

"There should be congestion from Anque Street to Anming Street today. I will go there with you."

Although Yang Qingmo didn't say anything about the heart-wrenching words she just said, Geng Xingshuang always felt that the way he looked at her seemed to be accusing him of something.

After getting on the carriage, she opened a corner of the curtains and looked out.

Yang Qingmo rode parallel to the carriage and noticed her gaze. He glanced down at her and asked warmly: "Are you tired from sitting? You'll be here in a while. I've asked Dewang to book tea across from the government office in advance. Si’s location.”

"No, I'm not tired." Geng Xingshuang shook his head, feeling that what he said was too concise and seemed cold.

Then he asked: "Brother Yang Liu, are you nervous?"

Yang Qingmo chuckled, "Do you think I'm nervous?"

"I'm just asking you because I can't tell? If I were to take such a big exam and such an important moment, I would definitely be very nervous. I might not be able to sleep for several days. Just like now, you are obviously taking the scientific exam. , you should be the one who is nervous, but look at my palms, they are sweating all the time."

Geng Xingshuang feels that this is his biggest shortcoming, that he is not calm enough and emotionally stable enough.

"Really? Let me take a look!" Yang Qingmo said, leaning forward to look at her stretched out palm.

Staring at his pair of starry lake-like eyes, Geng Xingshuang only felt that her palms were getting hotter. Not only her palms were hot, but her whole body seemed to be heating up.

She quickly retracted her hand and said, "You... you ride well." "Okay." Yang Qingmo chuckled and responded in a good-tempered manner.

Geng Xingshuang felt that she was out of her wits this morning and did stupid things.

"Sixth sister, so you can be nervous too? I always thought you were very stable, just like the kind in the storybook, you can remain calm even when Mount Tai collapses, just like when half a roll of pandan was sold to Mrs. Yu by my grandmother. , I ran around anxiously, but couldn't think of any solution, but Sixth Sister, you were very calm, and went to find uncle Ruan and grandma at the same time. When Mingshang Pavilion opened, so many noble people came, and finally The Fifth Princess and the Sixth Princess are here, and I was so nervous that I almost lost my ability to speak, but Sister Six, you were able to chat with the princesses without changing your expression."

Geng Xingshuang leaned against the wall of the carriage helplessly, "I was just pretending, holding on, but actually my palms were sweating all the time."

"Then I will try to pretend in the future?" Geng Xingchen said to himself.

But soon, Geng Xingchen discovered that he didn't seem to have the ability to disguise himself.

The place where the results were released in autumn was in front of the main gate of the government office.

Sure enough, as Yang Qingmo said before, Anque Street, the street closest to the government office, was already crowded so early in the morning.

These people are naturally not just candidates and their families. Some are joining in the fun, some want to see the results earlier and rush to announce the good news and receive rewards. A large part of them have the same purpose as Geng Yan, which is to watch. The young talents who are on the list are snatched home to be their sons-in-law.

"That...that...and the one over there wearing a purple robe with a fat belly. These people all come with a purpose and a mission. Their purpose is the same as the third uncle, which is to best The unmarried master who was ranked high in the ranking and had good looks snatched him home to be his son-in-law."

After placing the horses and carriages, the group walked from Anque Street to the tea shop opposite the government office. It was still more than half an hour before the results were released.

After entering the second floor of the tea shop and sitting down, Geng Shuhuai looked at the people downstairs and analyzed.

"There are so many people trying to rob people in Qiu Wei, so when the results are released in Spring Wei, won't it be so crowded?"

Geng Xingshuang looked at the scene and could not imagine how lively it would be on the day when the results were released in Chunwei.

In the past, no one from her uncle's house or the houses of her close relatives had participated in the autumn or spring festivals, so she had never been part of the excitement. Therefore, this was the first time she saw the grand occasion of the day when the results of the scientific examination were released.

"Before I left Ningdu, I did take part in the excitement of the Spring Examination Day. It was very lively, but speaking of it, there didn't seem to be as many people grabbing people as now. Is it because the fathers-in-law nowadays prefer scholars?"

Geng Shuhuai guessed, still thinking that Axiao's father had passed away and she had no father-in-law. Her future brother-in-law Wansha was also a martial arts practitioner, so he shouldn't dislike her... right?

"This little brother is wrong. There are not as many people who want to steal people in the spring period as there are in the autumn period. This has always been the case. If you don't believe me, wait until next year when the results are released in the spring period. I dare say that there are many people who want to snatch the Jinshi Master as his son-in-law. Yes, but there are definitely not as many as those who came here today to snatch the master as his son-in-law."

Perhaps Geng Shuhuai's voice was too loud, and a middle-aged man wearing a chestnut-colored robe at the table next to him heard him, and he started talking to him.

Geng Xingshuang looked towards the man. There were two people sitting at that table. One was the middle-aged man, and the other was also a middle-aged man. But judging from his posture, he looked like a housekeeper. Although he was sitting, he The back is slightly bent forward, and the attitude is very respectful.

However, Geng Xingshuang felt that it would be more appropriate to guess that he was a housekeeper, rather than a bodyguard.

Because she thinks he knows kung fu.

If Jin Bao were here, he would definitely tell him secretly after seeing it.

Geng Xingshuang wanted to verify whether her guess was correct. She glanced around and thought that if she asked her second brother, with her second brother's voice, the entire tea shop might be able to hear it.

"What's wrong?" Yang Qingmo noticed Geng Xingshuang looking at him and asked in a low voice.

"Brother Yang Liu, does he know martial arts?" Geng Xingshuang's voice was low.

"Sister Shuang has good eyesight." Yang Qingmo chuckled, "Not only does he know martial arts, he is also very good at martial arts."

"Uncle, can you tell me why? Being a Jinshi son-in-law is no more honorable than being a son-in-law. Uncle, I don't think you look like someone who took the Qiuwei exam. You came here just because you wanted to Why don't you grab a master to be your son-in-law?"

Geng Xingshuang and Yang Qingmo were whispering here, and Geng Shuhuai was already chatting with people very familiarly.
