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

Xu Nuoyan took out Yang Erdan's letter and smiled. "My husband asked me to go with you and bring Xiaoya with me. He said there is a big matter in the capital and asked Xiaoya and me to go there to help. But before that, I have to go to Ping'an County first and then go to the capital."

Since there were two Jinshi in the family, they always had to go back to the village to announce the good news, and by the way, they would go to Yang Han's house to propose marriage for Yang Santie.

Madam Zhou nodded repeatedly, "Okay, okay! Then I'll go with you, and we'll stop by Mapo Academy to give thanks to Mr. Ming and his friends, as well as some of your father's old friends in the escort agency who have helped us before, so we have to go there too."

She had a premonition that after this trip to the capital, she would probably never return to Ping'an County in her lifetime.

Yang Xiaoya knew that they were going back and also expressed her desire to go and see Old Man Yang and Mrs. Li together.

She is already grown up, and will have to discuss marriage in two or three years. She doesn't know where she will marry in the future. It's okay to marry in Quzhou Prefecture, but the possibility is not high. After all, her eldest brother's family is in the capital. Her second brother is now a Jinshi and is unlikely to stay in Quzhou Prefecture for the rest of his life. Not to mention her third brother, who is like the wind and cannot be caught. Even if he marries Sister Xiaohua, he will still be traveling around in the future.

Not to mention the fourth brother, his goal has always been the capital. He is still studying hard in the academy, aiming to become the eldest brother Xu. He has even neglected sleep and food. With his enthusiasm, it is only a matter of time before he goes to the capital.

All of her brothers have gone to the capital, and there is a high probability that her mother will go there in the future. If she were given a choice, she would prefer to marry in the capital, as in that case, her chances of seeing her grandparents would be slim.

After everyone finished discussing, they immediately asked housekeeper Zhu to pack their luggage, and Zhu San made a special trip to Quzhou Academy to find Yang Sizhuang.

Yang Sizhuang came back in a hurry and bought a lot of snacks in the city. "Second sister-in-law, little sister, I want to study, so I won't go back. If you don't come back this year, I will go back to the village to see grandpa and grandma during the New Year and spend the New Year with them."

Xu Nuoyan smiled in understanding, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. The teacher has said that you are well educated and if you keep a calm mind, it is only a matter of time before you pass the imperial examination.

Your second brother is probably on his way back. It will be more lively if you brothers return to the village together during the New Year. I have arranged everything for the farm. With housekeeper Zhu here, you can study with peace of mind."

Xu Nuoyan explained everything in detail like a serious elder.

"Thank you, second sister-in-law." Yang Sizhuang bowed again.

Yang Xiaoya took out the clothes she had made for Yang Sizhuang and gave him many instructions.

Yang Sizhuang held the bag and said goodbye to Yang Xiaoya reluctantly.

The creaking wheels rolled over the steaming hot ground and sped along the smooth official road.

Because of the Dragon King Temple incident, several official roads were built from the provincial capital to Ping'an County, greatly shortening the round-trip distance between the two places. Xu Nuoyan and others reached their destination without much suffering.

The magistrate of Ping'an County received the news early and sent people to meet outside the county town.

Although Xu Nuoyan was in a hurry, he had to go over and say hello to the county magistrate. He then dropped off Zhou Niangzi and Alan, and left a carriage and two guards for them.

Madam Zhou took Alan directly to the escort agency
The Yang family's carriage left the county town and rushed all the way to Dashan Town, arriving at Rongshu Village before dark.

The days are long in summer and the evenings are cool. Most villagers will go out for a stroll in the evening, sit under the big banyan tree at the entrance of the village and chat, and then see the huge horse-drawn carriages approaching.

The villagers stood up one after another and looked carefully.

After a while, someone shouted excitedly, "It's the Big Boss's carriage! They're back!"

"Wow! So many carriages and so many people! What a big scene!" an old woman exclaimed.

Someone in the crowd immediately hurried to the village, "I'll go tell Uncle Jiang!"

The quiet village suddenly became lively. After the carriage entered the village, Xu Nuoyan got off the carriage with the jade bracelet and greeted the villagers, asking the driver to take Yang Xiaoya directly to the old house, and the others to wait in the east of the village.

When the villagers saw Xu Nuoyan, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and had a noble temperament, they were afraid to talk to him.

It was only after Xu Nuoyan took the initiative to talk to them that they gradually relaxed.

Zhang's eyes sparkled as she asked excitedly, "Erdan's family, why didn't your mother-in-law come back with you?"

Xu Nuoyan smiled gently and said, "My mother-in-law is in Beijing. We came back to see Grandpa and Grandma and will go to Beijing to meet my mother-in-law."

"What? Didn't your mother-in-law give all the farms in the capital to you? You are going to the capital too? What about the farms in the capital?" Zhang was very surprised and spoke loudly.

Old Man Yang and Mrs. Li, who had rushed over, happened to hear this and couldn't help but get anxious.

Li ran to Xu Nuoyan and grabbed her hand, "Why do you want to go to the capital? What's so good about the capital? It's so good in our Quzhou Prefecture! Even the prefect has to be polite to you!"

Li was more reluctant to leave. All the first wives had left one by one. If they were in Quzhou Prefecture, she could still miss them a little, but if they went to the capital, she would never see them again.

Seeing Li's pursed lips and red eyes, about to cry, Xu Nuoyan immediately coaxed her, "Grandma, it's not that your granddaughter-in-law has to go, but my eldest brother has won the first place in the imperial examination, and the emperor has also betrothed Princess Yongyang to him. Now my mother and I are in Quzhou Prefecture, and there is no one to arrange the marriage. Everything fell to my mother-in-law, and she was too busy to handle it, so she wrote a letter asking us to go quickly."

"What? You said your elder brother became the top scholar?" Li's voice suddenly rose, and she staggered because she was too excited.

The other villagers were all furious.

"Oh my God! Your eldest brother actually became the top scholar! When your family came to our village, I said that the young man looked like the Star of Literature who had descended to earth! It turns out to be the Star of Literature who had descended to earth!" An old woman praised exaggeratedly.

Others also followed suit and kept saying good things.

Old Man Yang looked proud, "Not bad, not bad. Since the in-laws are getting married and want to marry a princess, you must go and help. This is what you should do!"

Li was no longer uncomfortable now, but instead smiled so hard that her teeth were showing.

Seeing them like this, Xu Nuoyan hurriedly said to Yang Laosan, "Uncle San, please help Grandpa a little."

Old man Yang waved his hands repeatedly, "It's okay, it's okay, it's not dark yet, I can see well, I don't need anyone to help me."

Xu Nuoyan covered his mouth and laughed secretly, "Grandpa, I still have good news to tell you! This time, Erya's husband also went to the city to take the exam, and he passed the exam and became a Jinshi!"

"What? Doesn't that mean Erya will become an official's wife?" Zhou was dumbfounded and completely stunned.

Xu Nuoyan nodded.

Mrs. Li was so happy that she cried, "Great! That's great! The child finally got his wish after all the suffering!"

"That's not all!" Xu Nuoyan changed the subject, whetting everyone's appetite, "Besides them, our Erdan and Santie are also in trouble!"

Li suddenly grabbed Xu Nuoyan's hand, her heart pounding, her throat dry, "What...what happened?" (End of this chapter)
