Chapter 129

When the four returned to Lin's Village, Mrs. Liu couldn't wait to go to the field and call the two elders back.

Mother Lin was crying and laughing, and walked home quickly all the way.

When Han Qing saw this, she couldn't help but sigh with emotion, it was really Han Chuang who studied hard for more than ten years, and only hoped that once the carp leaps over the dragon's gate, the blue sky will rise straight up.

In a village, everyone looked up and saw down. Such a big movement in the Lin family had already alarmed Li Zheng.

Hearing that Lin Yuwen was elected, or Jie Yuan, it can be said that it caused a sensation in the whole village.

Except for a few people who were jealous of the red eyes, most of them were excited. Last time the bandits came to make trouble, they all helped a lot.

If Lin Yuwen becomes an official in the future, he will be in debt to the Lin Family Village!

Li Zheng was so happy that he wished to recognize Lin Yuwen as his godson, he said excitedly: "Yuwen, the Lin family village has not had a successful candidate for decades, you are really giving the village face!"

Almost all of the hundreds of families in the village followed the ceremony.

Eggs, sesame oil, medicinal herbs, game vegetables and fruits, all kinds of things filled the corner of the small courtyard of the Lin family in an instant. Mrs. Zhang and sister-in-law hurriedly remembered the gifts and would return them back in the future.

The two elders smiled from ear to ear, busy entertaining the guests, while Liu Shi and Han Qing poured tea and water for everyone, and it was rare for Lin Youtian to have a sip of wine with his uncles.

The small farmyard was instantly bustling with activity.

For decades, Lin Family Village has been the busiest today!

sunset.

After everyone had dispersed, a young man led a horse by the door of Lin's house.

This person is Agui from Shopkeeper Song's house.

Agui stepped forward and bowed to everyone, and said: "Master Lin, my master specially prepared a small gift for you. The master said so, so don't dislike it."

Lin Yuwen took over the wooden box, and the servant completed the task, and he was considered retired.

Lin Yuwen opened the gift box, only to find that inside was a set of pen, ink, paper and inkstone!
He took a closer look at the texture of the inkstone, it was as fine and smooth as skin, and the carving was exquisite. The ink is also famous as ink, with a fragrance that penetrates the flesh and bones, leaving no inkstone residue.

Just for this set of pens, inks, papers and inkstones, I am afraid that there is not one of them worth more than a hundred taels, so it will be impossible to buy!
Shopkeeper Song gave him this big gift, obviously with the intention of making friends, but he and Song Zhiyuan are brothers and sisters, so there is no need for this gift at all.

Tomorrow, he will return this gift, he is really ashamed to receive it!

In the courtyard, the two elders who were overjoyed hadn't calmed down yet, and their vicissitudes of face were covered with melancholy in an instant.

Lin's mother said: "Yuwen Zhongju is a great joy, the villagers have all followed the ceremony, and we have to invite a meal tomorrow."

"Mother, every household has to invite fifty taels of silver, but it will cost a lot of silver." After a pause, Lin Fengjiao continued: "The fifty taels of silver owed earlier has not been paid off. , I can’t squeeze out any money right now.”

Mrs. Liu glanced at the congratulatory gifts in the corner, and thought for a while: "Why don't you cook these along with the gifts, so we can make do with it?"

Mother Lin thought for a moment, then shook her head again and again: "No way!"

"There are a lot of eggs and wild game in it. Let Shiliang and Dazhi sell them at the market tomorrow, and they can also raise some travel expenses for Yuwen."

"Now that Yuwen is a Juren, the cost of food and clothing is always better than before, and he can't wear patched clothes as usual. There are many places where money is needed to go to Beijing to catch the exam, and the travel expenses alone cost a dozen or so."

"Just now Li Zhengdu told my mother that when I go to the Imperial Capital, although there is a place for poor students to live, I still have to pay a lot of money, including food and drink... plus pens, inks, papers and inkstones, all kinds of things. There are hundreds of taels."

Following Lin's mother's words, the originally festive Lin family became quiet in an instant.
