Chapter 91 Scholarship and Fame

An Wuji bought a large amount of chili sauce, chili oil and other products in Xichun. In the middle of the month, he and his friends left Weinan County and headed to Guangming Mansion in high spirits.

Xichun's business has also stabilized, with monthly profits of around 400 taels. This is indeed much more profitable than setting up a stall before. Because the environment is designed to protect privacy, many people are willing to come over to eat.

At the end of August, Xichun had been looking forward to good news from Fu Changfeng. She had also inquired before that as long as he was the head of the case, he had a high chance of being admitted as a scholar. The officialdom also looked at the person's career. Although the prefect had been He was arrested, but fortunately he did not dare to interfere in the imperial examination, so all the results were retained.

Boom, boom, boom!The sound of gongs and drums came from outside the door. Taozi and Xichun both looked out and saw several guards beating gongs and walking towards the Fu family.

"What happened? Why did the people from the Yamen come to knock the gong? Is there another case?" People who were eating were all looking outside.

"Look at the red cloth hanging on their bodies. This is obviously a happy event. I think they are going in the direction of the Fu family. Could it be that their youngest son has been admitted as a scholar?"

"I think it's probably true. I heard that this young master of the Fu family has always been very talented. Even the gentlemen at the academy praised him. He didn't seem to have much fame before, but he has started to shine in the past two years."

"Although there are scholars in our city, such young scholars are rare. If they are admitted to the Juren Examination, there will be even fewer. I remember that there seem to be only one or two in these years."

"It's not so easy to take the exam, you can directly become an official. Look at the county magistrate who was the one who selected officials. In the entire Jiannan Road, only [-] were elected in three years. Those who are powerful are basically from Yizhou Prefecture. Or other prefectural cities, our small county town will be very popular if we have a few."

Xi Chun also heard the comments from others. She also hoped in her heart that Fu Changfeng could pass the exam. There was still a big gap between young students and scholars. Although her family did not expect to make a fortune by relying on scholars, they still had protection. From now on, the county magistrate would like to If you want to move their house, you have to weigh it carefully.

"Sister Xichun, do you think Master Fu has really been admitted as a scholar? I haven't met a scholar yet." Taozi asked curiously. He knew that Master Fu would be engaged to Xichun when he came back, and he already regarded him as a scholar. He married his brother-in-law, but did not connect the scholar with his brother-in-law.

"A scholar also has one mouth and two eyes, but he does get a lot of preferential treatment, and some of the land under his name is exempted from paying taxes. You get what you charge." Xichun gave him a rough explanation.

"Wow, that's amazing. I think Master Fu can not only pass the exam as a scholar, but also pass the exam they call a scholar."

"It's not that easy to take the exam. Some people are still scholars until they reach the age of gray hair. But Master Fu loves reading so much, so the chances of passing the exam are high." Some people came bustlingly, but they were not so crazy. Maybe it was the same as during the college entrance examination, right?
Xichun thought to himself that he would go and see the candidates in the future.

"Miss Chen, my wife asked me to tell you that the second young master has been admitted as a scholar. He should be on his way back now. The master said that when the young master comes back, we will hold a running banquet for three days." A boy from the Fu family ran away When he arrived at the restaurant, he quietly told Xichun about this.

"Great! This is the happy money you came to report." After hearing this, Xichun almost slapped her palm on the abacus with joy, and then she gave him a handful of copper coins.

"Thank you, Miss Chen. Thank you, Miss Chen. The master also said that they have already set their sights on the future and will invite a matchmaker to propose marriage after the flowing water mat." The boy happily took the money and left.

Xichun told others the good news, and everyone was proud of Fu Changfeng's happy event.

"Master Fu said at the beginning that I wiped the table very clean. When he comes back, I will continue to clean the table for him."

"I didn't expect that there is a scholar among us. When Master Fu comes back, I want to pay my respects and see if I can let him touch my baby's head and make him smarter and study for the imperial examination." Everyone was happy. It’s really different, Xichun listened with a smile.

Fu Changfeng has already embarked on his journey home. This trip back to Fucheng is much easier than the last time he returned to Fucheng. He has done what he promised, and his family is safe. He must study hard and protect himself in the future. My family, protect the happy spring.

"Master, you will be home in a few days. I see you were not as excited as you are now when you were on the list. Do you want to go home quickly and get engaged to Miss Chen? Hehe." Zhu Nian teased him.

"Don't talk nonsense. I'm just eager to go home and see my parents as soon as possible." The corner of his mouth had never dropped, and now he still insisted on pretending as if nothing had happened.

"Young master, you are so stubborn." The two of them grew up together, and they didn't act like masters and servants on weekdays, so Zhu Nian dared to joke like this.

"Hurry up and catch your car, there's so much nonsense."

Xichun was still in the shop when he suddenly saw Zhu Nian walking in and quickly looked behind him.

"Miss Chen, our young master has just arrived home and is still talking to the master and his wife. The young master asked me to tell you in person that he has returned safely and will see you again when he is done with his work."

"Just come back, Zhunian, do you want to eat fried chicken? I remember you liked it before."

"Really, Miss Chen, I've wanted to eat it for a long time. When I was in Yizhou Prefecture, the food there wasn't as delicious as yours. I've been greedy for a long time."

"Taozi, go prepare a fried chicken for Zhu Nian, and bring a bowl of the ice powder we made."

"Hey, I'll go right away. Brother Zhunian, please wait here." Taozi and Zhunian were also familiar with each other. After hearing Sister Xichun's instructions, she hurried to serve him food.

In the evening, Xi Chun was about to close up and go home when he saw Fu Changfeng coming over. He was wearing a brand new robe, which he put on after washing. In order to see Xi Chun as soon as possible, he told his parents Came here later.

"Why are you here? Why don't you have a good rest? I heard from Zhu Nian that you were all working hard when you came back. You must be tired too." Xichun felt a little distressed when she saw the tiredness that couldn't be hidden on his happy face.

"It's okay. If I don't see you when I come back, I'll be worried that I won't be able to sleep at night. How is business? Are you tired?"

"It's okay, I'm used to it anyway, but I feel uncomfortable when you suddenly say such disgusting words. You go home and rest first, and it's the same when you come back when you're free." Xichun felt a little embarrassed when faced with his sudden tenderness.

"Okay, I'll come back to you tomorrow. This is a hairpin I chose in Yizhou Prefecture. I think it suits you very well, so I brought it to you first." He took out a hairpin. It was very plain, but It was polished smooth. Xichun usually bought a ten-penny hairpin from a roadside stall and half-tied his hair. Unexpectedly, he noticed this detail.
