Qing Er quickly delivered the letter to Xiao Tingyun.

Xiao Tingyun opened it and read it carefully, and at the last moment his eyes narrowed.

This person is really interesting, and he also replied to her: It’s hard to describe with a simple pen, I admire you and love you.

However, he said that he didn't know much about the gossip about the Xu family. After all, he didn't need to know about other girls' families.

Not everyone is Xiao Tingyun.

Xiao Tingyun was amused and felt that it was right. It was indeed wrong to ask him about the Xu family. However, the main purpose of her letter was not to ask this, but to start a chat mode between the two.

When she had nothing to do, Xiao Tingyun often sent letters to Pei Yuning. Since the last time she knew that he was in the house, she started sending letters every day.

Soon, Xiao Hezhou's provincial examination results were released.

The whole family is secretly looking forward to Xiao Hezhou getting a good ranking this time.

Originally, Mrs. Song wanted to go directly to see the list, but Xiao Hezhou stopped her and said that she could just send a servant there.

It is not safe for family members in the province to crowded around with those people.

Mrs. Song thought so, and her son seemed to have no change in mood after taking the exam. He was doing whatever he had to do as before.

Mrs. Song was not very nervous either.

Xiao Hezhou smiled and comforted, "Don't be nervous, mother. It's a given that whether you win or not, it's no big deal."

"Yes... that's what I said, but after all, you have studied so hard in Hanchuang for so many years, and your mother also feels sorry for you." Mrs. Song saw her son's hard work for so many years. If he didn't have a reputation, how could he be worthy of so many years of hard work.

Xiao Hezhou didn't care, "Study is sensible. If you study for the sake of fame, what should others do except those who can win the exam?"

"If the family members don't have enough to eat and don't have warm clothes, they still insist on taking the exam for merit and fame. That's pedantic."

"Hahaha..." Xiao Huanshan chuckled, "Sanlang is right, just do your best."

The two father and son were on opposite sides, and Ms. Song glared at her husband angrily.

I don’t know who was tossing and turning at night.

Xiao Tingyun pulled Ms. Song, "Don't worry, mother. The third brother must have a plan. Besides, the text of the third brother was taken by my father and the eldest brother together. You still don't believe that this is a young man who is a prodigy and a top scholar." Ability?"

What Song said was funny and angry, "I don't believe them, they will fool me!"

Soon, the boys who were watching the list hurried back and shouted, "I won!! The third young master won!!!"

Mrs. Song stood up and said happily, "You won!? What rank did you win?"

Xiao Hezhou smiled leisurely and said, "Mom, don't be anxious."

The boys were out of breath, but one of them recovered a little and said happily, "The third young master won the second place!!"

Xiao Huanshan nodded appreciatively, "Yes, it seems it's time to revise your grandfather's genealogy again this time."

"Congratulations, third brother!" Xiao Tingyun was sincerely happy for him.

"The old lady will send someone to tell the good news, so that everyone will be happy." Mrs. Song asked her servants to go to the old lady quickly.

Naturally, the servants would not forget this and said happily, "I told the old lady after seeing the list. The old lady was very happy and said she wanted to give the servants monthly money."

"It's time to mention that you should also receive an extra month's salary!" Mrs. Song said grandly.

"Thank you, second lady!"

Xiao Hezhou won the second place, but Xiao Qu's genealogy should not have been completed.

The main reason is that there will be a national examination later. Mrs. Xiao told him that she has revised her family tree now. Will she have to revise it again when she wins the national examination later?

Simply let him save it and build the genealogy together after he has finished all the exams. Xiao Qu thought about it. It shouldn't be too stressful for his grandson to pass the Jinshi examination.

It's better to wait and save yourself from spending a few days writing it later.

As soon as Xiao Hezhou won the imperial examination, more and more people came to support him.

In addition to the title of Marquis of Dingbei, his father is the Minister of Household Affairs, and his eldest brother is also in the Imperial Academy.

He has a bright future.

Du Miao, the unmarried grandson of the Xiao family, has been targeted by many people.

Moreover, after hearing the Xiao family's admonition not to take concubines, he became the sweetheart of many unmarried girls.

It's a pity that Mrs. Song also wanted to take advantage of this opportunity to arrange a marriage for her son, but Xiao Hezhou was unmoved.

He had no intention of getting married at all. He only said that he wanted to concentrate on his studies first and refused because he was still young.

Mrs. Song had no choice but to politely decline all kinds of invitations from those ladies, and what her son said was reasonable.

However, Xiao Hezhou's idea could not be won, and there were still several girls in the house who could win his idea.

Especially Xiao Tingyun, Xiao Hezhou's biological sister, a lot of people originally asked about her, but it turned out that she was not in good health.

They all turned their attention to Xiao Tingqi.

Jiang was also spoiled for choice. One moment he thought this was good, and the next he thought that one was better.

Xiao Tingyun just happened to be lazy and nestled in Shuyu Building without going out, but Xiao Tingqi came to visit on his own initiative.

"Hey, you're a rare visitor." Xiao Tingyun rocked a chair to bask in the sun, covering himself with a thin blanket.

Xiao Tingqi was in a good mood and didn't pay attention to her tone. He sat down and saw that she looked too leisurely and a little weird, "You don't care about your marriage at all."

Xiao Tingyun glanced at her and continued to rock the chaise longue, "Others don't look down on me."

"Hmph..." Xiao Tingyun snorted coldly. She still remembered that there was a one-in-a-million good marriage prospect who fell in love with her.

It's a pity that Xiao Tingyun is useless and hasn't agreed yet!

There is no such shop in this village anymore. Judging from the way those people avoided her as soon as they heard about her illness, I am afraid they will have no choice but to marry someone from a poor family.

Xiao Tingqi secretly rejoiced. Wasn't he the center of attention this time?

"Hey? What do you think? You don't even like Duke Xu's house? Do you want to go to heaven in the future?!" Xiao Tingqi complained very much, "Xu Huaili is not as noble as our family. You don't want to get married and you still want to be the queen?" ?”

Xiao Tingyun shook her chair and turned to ask her, "Queen?"

"What? Don't tell me that your thoughts are really about the queen, right?" Xiao Tingqi said with an expression of "Don't be kidding me." "Although His Majesty has not yet had a queen, Concubine Shu has an eldest prince, and Duke Xu’s Mansion is my mother’s family, and she is the queen that everyone expects!”

"You are just too petty..." Xiao Tingqi was still chattering on the side.

Xiao Tingyun's thoughts had already flown far away. Queen, Your Majesty...

"Hey?!"

"Hey?!"

Xiao Tingyun came to her senses, "What?"

Xiao Tingqi shouted angrily, "I'm talking to you! Why are you so distracted?"

"What on earth did you come to see me for!" Xiao Tingyun was puzzled. This man usually either scolded or choked him when he saw him.

Why are you interested in going to her Shuyulou today?

Xiao Tingqi's rising flame disappeared in an instant, and he sighed, "It's not a matter of choosing a mate. I don't even know why I want to get married? And my mother seems to have someone she likes this time."
