Rebirth of the Imperial Examination: The Empress of the Impoverished Family

bang bang bang...

It's the sound of a heartbeat.

Lin Wan stood on the stage, and now she could only hear the voice in her chest.

There is a blur in front of my eyes, people's every move and expression on their faces, like fog.

Is this nervous?

While cooking, she devoted herself wholeheartedly and didn't notice that there were so many people at the scene.

"Miss Wan?"

"Miss Wan!"

Lin Wan came back to her senses, and only then did she realize that she was calling herself.

She turned her head and saw Wang Ercheng smiling, "You have successfully defended!"

Succeeded?
Lin Wan felt somewhat unreal, but she also felt that this was normal, she had this confidence!
Her vision gradually became clear, and she cast her gaze downward again.

There were surprises, shocks, and sluggishness on people's faces, except that they didn't have the initial doubts.

She won this victory with strength!
"Next, our Master Lu will present awards to the winners."

Wang Ercheng was a little more polite when facing Lu Huangnian. He originally presented the award to himself, but Qingye said that this person is the patron who is not easy to offend, so he reluctantly agreed.

Lin Wan glanced over Lu Huangnian's smiling face, and finally landed on the tray behind.

The tray was covered with a red cloth.

Although she also participated in the preparations, I really don't know what the prize is.

The heart that had been beating all the time did not slow down, but beat faster.

"Congratulations."

A pleasant voice came out of Lu Huangnian's mouth, and Lin Wan saw the red cloth fade away, revealing a golden knife inside.

Lin Wan:?
The people below also gasped.

Pure gold?
So rich and powerful?

Can this knife cut meat?
Lin Wan also had these doubts, and her beating heart returned to calm at this moment.

Thanks to her for keeping it!

Otherwise, how much money will be lost...

She took the golden knife, only to find her name engraved on the handle.

Xi Yunge's first gourmet competition
golden knife award

Lin Wan
This short text shocked Lin Wan's nerves.

That's right, she is Lin Wan.

How did she get to this point?
To be honest, she doesn't even remember.

When she was a child, she was a picky eater, and A Niang always cooked food for her in different ways. Later, when she grew up, A Niang passed away. She took on the responsibility of A Niang to take care of her father, and went to the private school to deliver meals every day.

Father's private school is not big, and most of the students are children from the neighbors, but there is one boy who is different.

He is calm, speaks in a soft voice, blushes when facing her, praises her delicious food, and brings her novel gadgets, unlike those wild children in the country who are annoying.

She likes him and also likes to watch him eat.

Later, she became his wife and accompanied him to travel all over the world. After having Jiang Jin, she began to cook for Jiang Jin in various ways like her mother.

She thought, if she hadn't insisted on waiting in front of the chaotic booth on that snowy day, would there be today?

If she hadn't met Ao Ye by chance, I'm afraid she wouldn't even have a chance to prove herself, let alone today.

She still remembers that sentence to this day.

[I appreciate your courage, so I am willing to give you a chance. I am glad that you seized the opportunity with your strength. Then please give me your advice in the future, my partner. 】

"Then next, we will invite our lady Wan to give her acceptance speech!"

Wang Ercheng's face turned red with excitement, and the busy Xiaoer below also stopped to cheer for Lin Wan.

Lin Wan was brought back to reality by the bustle, and she made a bold decision in her heart.

She smiled softly and took a step forward slowly.

Just like her life, this step has entered a different world.

The sound of the heartbeat still echoed in my ears, but this time it was excitement.

"I used to be a wife, I was a mother, but now I'm just me, and I think most people would say it's shameless for a woman to show her face outside, but my kids say, you just have to be yourself."

"People first, women second."

"My kids gave me courage, my boss gave me opportunities, and I thank myself for taking a step forward."

"In the past, I thought the world was very small, so small that it was only as big as the back house, but today, I want to tell everyone that the world is very big, not just one side of the world, don't trap yourself."

"I got a chance to choose, and got another right, so I also want to use this only right to give a chance."

"Xi Yunge's pastry branch starts today, officially recruiting apprentices, with good treatment, regardless of gender."

After Lin Wan said these words, some people below dropped their chopsticks in shock.

But she ignored it, and after going through the final process according to the rules, she walked to the table that had been prepared earlier, and put up a sign of [Registration Office].

There are actually a lot of people today.

This is an opportunity she won, so she can only succeed and not fail.

In order to allow more women to come, Xi Yunge bleeds more than once. As long as those who come to watch, not only will they eat for free, but they will also be paid according to their head.

So most of the people who know the news come with their families.
Lin Wan was calm on the surface, but she was still a little worried after speaking.

It is difficult for people to get out of their comfort zone, let alone fight against the world.

Just as she was struggling, a crisp child's voice sounded.

"Auntie, can Qi'er sign up?"

Lin Wan was stunned for a moment, then smiled, "Of course Qi'er can do it, don't you need to ask brother?"

Bai Qi'er shook his head, "Qi'er can decide what matters about Qi'er himself."

"it is good."

Lin Wan solemnly filled in Bai Qi'er's name in the first column, and waited for several people to ask questions one after another, but after all, very few people signed up.

"Excuse me, can I?"

Lin Wan raised her head, and saw a thin little girl with a dirty face, and the clothes she was wearing were pale from washing, and her sleeves were a bit too short.

"Of course, what's your name?"

"Panda."

Lin Wan's hand holding the brush paused, and a drop of ink made a black hole out of the paper.

"No... can't it?" Pan Di grabbed her clothes, "No... forget it."

She ran away after she finished speaking, so fast that Lin Wan only had time to stand up.

"This child..."

"Auntie, what's the matter?"

Lin Wan turned her head and watched Jiang Jin coming from downstairs, "There was a girl who wanted to sign up, but I asked her name and she ran away."

Jiang Jin said "Oh", and looked towards the door, she also saw what happened just now.

I thought there was something...

"Don't worry, Auntie, I'll let Qing Shan pay attention."

"Okay." Lin Wan sighed, "This kid looks so pitiful."

"Okay." Jiang Jin comforted Lin Wan, "Don't worry if you leave it to me."

She lied and took out the gift hidden behind her back, "I haven't congratulated you yet!"

Lin Wan smiled brightly, and took the box from Jiang Jin, "Little devil, let me see what you have prepared!"
