Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over.

Liang Shaoqian laughed heartily and explained, "The bread, flatbreads and instant rice made by my mother-in-law are so delicious! I didn't have much expectation for the bread, but when I opened it, I found that it has many flavors, salty and sweet. It's a pleasant surprise!"

"Get to the point!" Yang Santie urged unhappily.

Liang Shaoqian laughed twice, "The point is that after the noodles and rice are boiled, the fragrance spreads ten miles away, even the chief examiner was alarmed. I'm fine, but Brother Nuoshan is amazing. He cooked a pot of noodles and actually attracted the chief examiner to watch him cook noodles."

Xu Nuoshan also thought that scene was very funny. He shook his head and said, "At that time, I thought something had happened. Seeing them staring at my pot, I didn't know whether to eat it or not. The noodles got rotten after a while, so I asked, 'Sir, do you want to taste it?'"

"Hiss!" Jiang Ning gasped, "And then? What did they say?"

Yang Erdan laughed and said, "Mother, we were in the examination room. How could the examiner eat the examinees' food? He immediately ran away, and ended up walking over to me. I was eating instant rice. They stopped again, and one examiner even asked me how I cooked. Maybe he couldn't understand why cooking was so simple, with meat and vegetables."

Jiang Ning could imagine such a scene, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise.

Yang Santie continued, "As soon as I left the examination room, I heard a lot of people asking about the noodles you made. Don't you think we should take this opportunity to make some money?"

Jiang Ning was somewhat tempted, but still shook his head. "If it was in Quzhou Prefecture, it would be fine, but this is the capital. Many people have already become jealous of our Yang family's rapid rise. If something goes wrong in the Imperial College, we won't be able to explain it clearly. Let's not bother."

Yang Santie thought about it and felt that Jiang Ning's concerns were not unreasonable. He immediately stopped thinking and asked, "Mother, can the seasoning be changed to a different flavor?"

Jiang Ning smiled knowingly, "I knew you would make these requests, so I prepared several flavors for you, including spicy flavor. However, try to eat light food in the exam room to avoid always wanting to drink water, so I won't give you spicy food for now. Go back and have a good rest, eat something hot, and have a good sleep, because there are still two more exams to come."

The four of them were probably well prepared for this exam, as they looked to be in good spirits and did not show any signs of weakness.

Just in case, Yang Xiaohua asked them to take a medicinal bath before resting.

Jiang Ning curiously asked, "What is the effect of this medicinal bath?"

Yang Xiaohua explained seriously: "I added angelica root, polygala root, ginger and other medicines to the medicinal bath to clear away heat, detoxify, dispel cold and calm the nerves. Soaking in it can soothe the body and mind and help with sleep and health."

Jiang Ning smiled from ear to ear, "Auntie has really found a treasure. With you here, I can rest easy. I don't know which stinky boy will be lucky enough to get a girl as good as you in the future?"

Yang Xiaohua lowered her head guiltily, tugging at her braids, "Aunt, I...I'm going back first!"

"What's the hurry?" Jiang Ning put his arm around her shoulders, his eyes full of joy that my daughter has grown up, "I watched you grow up, and I really like you. I guess you know what Santie is thinking. No matter if you have feelings for him or not, you are a good girl in my heart. Putting aside that brat, you are also old enough to get married.

You lost your mother when you were young and have been dependent on your father for life. It is no exaggeration to say that your father is a mysterious person who can't be seen from head to tail. He also lets you travel around the world alone, which shows that he is unreliable! There is no female elder around you, so I have to talk to you. If you like Santie, I will write a letter back and ask your father for marriage. If you like other boys, I can also help you ask around. Anyway, we can't delay our Xiaohua's lifelong event."

"Aunt." Yang Xiaohua raised her head, her eyes reddened, and she put her arms around Jiang Ning's waist and hugged her, "It would be great if Aunt were my mother!"

Growing up, she had never had a female elder who cared about her as much as Jiang Ning, which made her very reluctant to leave.

Many years later, whenever Yang Santie quarreled with her, she would say that she married him because she wanted to be Jiang Ning's daughter, which made Yang Santie very depressed.

Yang Santie, who had just finished taking a bath, went out feeling refreshed and saw this scene. He could no longer express his envy, but he couldn't bear to interrupt such a warm and beautiful moment. He could only hold it in silently and go back to the room. He just lay down on the bed and planned to take a nap, but he fell into a deep sleep with loud snoring.

When I woke up again, it was almost time to go out.

Maybe it was because I slept too deeply that when I woke up I felt like I had endless energy.

Yuan Bao heard the noise and hurried into the house, reporting happily: "Third Young Master, you are finally awake. The cook got up before dawn to cook for you. She prepared a large table of food for you. It's still early now, so you can have a good meal and rest before going out."

"Okay! Arrange it for me!"

Yang Santie quickly put on his clothes and washed up. The food was also prepared. They were all his favorite dishes, light and not greasy. He was hungry at first sight and picked up the chopsticks. He quickly finished a large bowl of dry rice, a large chicken leg, and half a bowl of nourishing soup. Maybe because there was food in his stomach and it was early in the morning, he immediately felt like eating. He went to the toilet again, cleaned himself, and felt refreshed.

In this state, we will definitely win today!

With Yang Xiaohua's help, while others were exhausted during the nine-day exam, the four of them were not even hurt. Looking at their posture, it was clear that they could continue to fight, and each of them was full of confidence. It seemed that they might have a chance to pass the palace examination in two months.

The spring examination was over, and many students who were short of money felt hopeless and had already returned. Some of them stayed and waited for the results. It was the beginning of spring, and when the sun was shining, three or five good friends would go to the theater to listen to music, go to the restaurant to recite poems, go boating on the lake to drink and eat, or have a spring banquet, where unmarried men and women would test each other.

There were plenty of things to do to kill time. Yang Santie and his friends occasionally went out, mostly to discuss the spring examination questions with their respective teachers.

Cui Guang had already seen Yang Santie's answer. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Yang Santie could still tell some clues from his reaction. There was a high chance that he would pass this time!
The same was true for Yang Erdan. His teacher was Ouyang Yu, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Personnel and a talented top scholar. According to Liang Hongchang, Ouyang Yu was a construction genius. Of course, this guy seemed to be a genius. Not only was he good at construction, he was also very good at humanities, water conservancy and farming. He also had a good handwriting and could compose poems and songs at will, and was highly regarded by the emperor.

Back then, Jiang Ning cooked every day to get Yang Erdan to become his apprentice, and had people send delicious food to Ouyang Mansion. He also asked Prime Minister Huang Zhengyang and Sun to help him speak well of him, and even asked King Xiaoyao for help. (End of this chapter)
