Qingchuan promotion rules in the backyard

Chapter 212
"Brother Song, why should you underestimate yourself?" Mao Mingxuan smiled helplessly.

"I'm not as good as you, but I'm not as good as you. I'm not ashamed to admit it." Song Mingyi said with a smile: "Let's go, let's go drink and celebrate for you!"

"Master, uncle said he would be back for lunch today." Xiao Huzi interjected beside him.

Mao Mingxuan smiled apologetically at Song Mingyi, and said, "Brother Song, we have to move to another day. I'll treat you to a drink on another day."

Song Mingyi smiled knowingly, and said, "Okay! Let's just wait until the imperial examination is over before drinking together. When the time comes, you will win the first prize, treat me to a good meal!"

"Brother Song!" Mao Mingxuan glanced around, a little dumbfounded.Song Mingyi really admired him, but other Juren who participated in Chunwei didn't see it that way.Especially at such a young age, he is already very hated!Song Mingyi still pretended to be no one else and said that he would wait to celebrate him being the No. [-] Scholar, and let others listen to him, saying that he didn't know the heights of the heavens and the depths of the earth was indispensable.

Although he didn't care much about other people's opinions, he still felt a little uncomfortable being surrounded by people like this.

Song Mingyi seemed to be belatedly realizing that they were standing in the middle of a large crowd.

"Hey, brother Mingxuan, go back quickly, I'll go back to the inn first too." Song Mingyi waved his hand, and ran away in a hurry.

Mao Mingxuan shook his head helplessly, and left quickly with Xiao Huzi regardless of the gazes of those around him.

At Uncle Chen's house, Chen Ruzhu was reading the account book with Su Shi.

She also remembered the results of Mao Mingxuan's announcement today, so she was a little absent-minded.He didn't even hear Su's talking to her.

"Pearl, take care! It is very important to read the account books! You will be the mistress in the future, and you will be in charge of all the farms and shops in the mansion. If you don't know how to read the account books, those people will take all your money Let's go! It's clearly a profit, but I'll tell you it's a loss! I've made [-]% of the profit, but I'll say it's [-]%! At that time, I will suffer a big loss!" Su Shiyu said earnestly.

"Emiang, I understand." Chen Ruzhu lowered her head guiltily.

"You've been reading this book all morning, have you figured it out?" Su frowned.

Chen Ruzhu shook her head, lowering her head even lower.

"Are you tempted by that kid?" Su asked suddenly.

"No!" Chen Ruzhu quickly denied it, blushing instantly.

Su sneered: "I didn't even say who it was, but you hurriedly denied it. Isn't this 300 taels of silver here!"

The blush on Chen Ruzhu's face faded, and she turned pale immediately.

Seeing her like this, the look on Su's face changed again, and he said with a smile: "If he wins the first prize, it's not that Er Niang can't think about it."

"Emiang!" Chen Ruzhu looked at Su in disbelief.

She said before that even if Mao Mingxuan won the first prize, she would not consider it.

"I just said that I can consider it, but I didn't say I agree." Su Shi said indifferently: "It depends on what kind of official you can be if you win the first prize. If you are assigned to a small county magistrate in a remote area, I can't bear you to suffer."

Chen Ruzhu's expression of joy just now darkened.She knew that Er Niang still didn't like Mao Mingxuan.But in her opinion, isn't Mao Mingxuan better than the servant's son Su mentioned?

While the two were talking, the servant outside came in to report, "Ma'am, Master Biao is back."

"The result came out?" Su Shi put down the ledger in his hand, and said, "What's the look on his face?"

"Young watch, the servant next to the young master laughed so hard that he couldn't close his eyes." The servant replied.

Mrs. Su knew it in her heart, let the boy go down, and waited for Mao Mingxuan to come over.

"It seems that the test is good." She said.

Chen Ruzhu felt a bit of joy in her heart.

After a while, Mao Mingxuan came in with the little tiger.

Before he could salute, Su Shi said with concern: "How did you do in the exam? Seeing that you look refreshed, you must be doing pretty well!"

Mao Mingxuan smiled faintly, and just as he was about to speak, the little tiger said with a proud face: "The young master won the first place! He won the prize!"

He also knew that this aunt was lukewarm towards his young master, so he wanted to show off now, and deliberately rushed to talk about it!

Surprise flashed in Su's eyes, and he immediately smiled and said, "Oh! That's really good! Your uncle will be very happy when he comes back later! Come, let the kitchen add more vegetables for lunch today!"

Chen Ruzhu also stood up, and smiled at Mao Mingxuan, "Congratulations, cousin!"

Mao Mingxuan smiled, and without saying anything modest, he just said, "There will be a palace test in a few days, so it's too early to say congratulations."

"The palace test is just a re-ranking, it's a fact that you won the ranking!" Su Shi said.She still knows a thing or two about imperial examinations.After all, Uncle Chen was admitted to the official through the imperial examination.

"I have lived up to everyone's expectations of me." Mao Mingxuan said.

"Your uncle must be the most gratified!" Su said with a smile.

Since this nephew moved into the mansion, Chen Junjie has been very concerned.It is to give pointers in person, to find a teacher, and to inquire about the examiner.Busy, no less than to his own son.So, Su's words are right.

"My nephew is most grateful to my uncle and aunt this time. If it weren't for you, my nephew wouldn't be able to prepare for the exam with peace of mind." Mao Mingxuan bowed.

Although Su Shi said that he was not sincere to him, he still did everything he should do in order to save face.For that alone, he couldn't be more grateful.If Uncle Chen wasn't in the capital, he might have to travel like Song Mingyi and live in a small inn, how could he concentrate on preparing for the exam so comfortably.

Su Clan didn't want to see Mao Mingxuan at first, but hearing his words of thanks, he still felt benefited, so he smiled and said, "That's out of the question! Your uncle and I are very happy that you can come to stay for a while. "

It was almost the time when Uncle Chen came back, so Mao Mingxuan didn't go back to his yard, but sat at Su's and drank tea.

Sure enough, before a cup of tea was finished, Uncle Chen strode in.

"Mingxuan, you are so upbeat!" Uncle Chen laughed loudly when he saw Mao Mingxuan.When he was in the Yamen, he had already asked people to watch the list.Knowing that Mao Mingxuan won No.1, he even showed it off in the yamen.

Mao Mingxuan stood up quickly, and said with a smile: "Mingxuan would also like to thank Uncle for always taking care of me."

Uncle Chen patted Mao Mingxuan's shoulder vigorously twice, and said loudly: "I didn't do anything, it's all up to you! I said a long time ago, as long as you perform normally, you will not fail the exam! But I didn't expect you The boy is so powerful, he knows how to win and wins the best! If he wins the first prize in the palace examination five days later, it will be a sensation!"

"It's not easy to win three yuan in a row. My nephew didn't dare to think about it." In front of Uncle Chen, Mao Mingxuan was still very humble.Although the idea in his heart is to win three yuan in a row, as long as he fails to do it one day, he will not say it.
