Chapter 653 Hit or miss

Xiang Haoyu's book boy came back a little slowly, but what he brought back was good news - Xiang Haoyu passed the exam, but the position was a bit behind.

As for Liu Kang...

Well, he failed the exam.

As expected, Liu Kang was just a little disappointed and then retracted his mind. Congratulations to both of you.

In the private room of the building, two of the three won the championship. Such a winning rate attracted the attention of others. Especially one of them was the head of the case, and many people gathered around, either asking for information or wanting to make good relationships.

Pei Liyan, Xiang Haoyu, and Liu Kang didn't stay for too long because the address they left was in that yard, and the person who reported the good news would also go to that yard, and they need to go back to the yard.

Sure enough, when the front foot arrives, the person who announces the good news comes.

The butler was ready and took out the rewards prepared in advance. The servant also brought out a dustpan of loose copper plates, sprinkled a lot in the alleyway, and enjoyed the neighbors.

The Xiang family is naturally the one who contributed the money, but what does it matter? It is a good thing to be able to get in touch with the head of the case, and are you still afraid of spending money?

Such a good thing can't be bought with money. If Pei Liyan hadn't made friends with Xiang Haoyu, such a good thing would not be the turn of the Xiang family.

Not only was there a case in his yard, but his young master also won. The foreign housekeeper was overjoyed and quickly arranged someone to rush to pass the news back to Qingshui Town.

The county exam is not as good as the provincial exam, and a deer-singing banquet is a must.

Pei Liyan, Xiang Haoyu was ready early and walked together.

Liu Kang, who failed the exam, had no chance and could only stay in the yard alone.

Looking at the new clothes the two of them had put on and looking at the carriage that was gradually moving away, how could he say it in his heart, he was somewhat envious.

If so, it would be great if he won, even if it was just Sun Shan, then...

Liu Kang shook his head. He was afraid he was a devil, but he was not a hit. Why do he think so much?

Instead of thinking about it here, it is better to go back to the house and calculate it carefully to see if the things he wants to bring are complete.

Almost in the middle of the night, Pei Liyan and Xiang Haoyu returned.

Both of them drank alcohol, but they were not drunk, but they were a little dizzy.

The butler prepared sober tea. After the two of them drank, they arranged for them to wash and go to bed early to rest.

The next day, the three of them went out to make their final purchases together and set off early in the morning of the three days.

The Xiang family was overjoyed.

Mr. Xiang was so happy that he was like: "I won, I won, I won, Haoyu won. Hahahaha... My Xiang family finally has hope. Hahahaha... The Xiang family has hope..."

As he spoke, there were some tears on his wrinkled face.

Since his father, the Xiang family has been looking forward to this kind of thing. Unfortunately, his father is not a good source of study, nor is he.

In order to force a few children to study, he added sticks, but he still didn't offer it. He didn't want to see his grandson pass the imperial examination in his lifetime.

"Dad, why are you crying? This is a good thing." I originally wanted to make fun of his father, but when Dad Xiang spoke, his eyes were red.

How much his father was looking forward to someone at home passing the exam, why didn’t he know in his heart?

Sometimes when he dreams, he can dream of his father saying, "Son, I'm afraid I won't see it in this life..."

That's great. His father saw it. His father's wish that he had been waiting for for many years was gone, and the stones pressing on his heart were also lighter.

"Where am I crying? I was so excited that I shed tears..." Mr. Xiang glared at him and asked him to notify his brothers to report good news to everyone.

This is not just a happy event for their family, but a great event for the entire Xiang clan.

Because from this day on, their Xiang family officially changed their families - they are no longer inferior third-rate businessmen, but "scholars".

They worked hard for this "scholar".

When the rest of the Xiang family received the news, they were all happy like something, and they came to find out the news and reported the good news.

They decided that when Xiang Haoyu came back, they would open the ancestral temple and report good news to the ancestors of the Xiang family.

"Yes, you must also establish a card of merit."

"Yes, yes, this must be established. Just stand at the door of the ancestral hall, so that everyone knows that our Xiang family has also produced scholars."

Xiang Haoyu returned home and received a warm welcome from the whole clan. The enthusiasm almost scared him to death.

"Dad," Xiang Haoyu's voice trembled, "What's this for?"

A group of old men surrounded him, smiling as if his face was blooming, which was so stingy.

When they praised him, those nice words were like they didn't have money, and they were all out. Unfortunately, Xiang Haoyu was not stunned by their sugar-coated shells. How much does he have, he still doesn't know?

He just took advantage of Liu Kang's blessing to pick up the final exam. No matter how good it is, people with real skills are good. They have all taken the exam while they are sick, but they are still the leader of the case.

There was a genius in front and a talented brother behind him watching, and Xiang Haoyu couldn't be proud at all.

"Hahahaha... This is a good thing, silly boy, have you been awarded the imperial examination? Everyone is happy!" Xiang Dad slapped his shoulder and smiled so hard that his face turned red.

Since the news came, the Xiang family has never calmed down and is full of liveliness.

"You are happy, but don't be like you're poisoned. Can you be too excited? I'm a juren who has been through the tail, so embarrassing..."

Before Xiang Haoyu could finish his words, Xiang Daddy glared and said, "What a shame? You are a juren, a juren master. Do you know how many generations our Xiang family has taken, and no one has passed a juren master? You silly boy, you don't know the importance of being a juren..."

Xiang Haoyu, who was disliked, was very unhappy: "It's not that I don't know the importance, but this is really not a glorious thing." He muttered softly, "Brother Pei is a genius. He can pass the case with illness. I see that next year's palace examination will definitely get a good score."

When he heard him mention Pei Liyan vaguely, Xiang Daddy smiled and narrowed his eyes: "I heard from the servant that you have a very good relationship with the Pei Case leader? Boy, it's not bad. I've gotten more insightful about this trip and know how to make friends. When will I have time? Please invite this Pei Case leader to my home..."

This is the head of the case. Even if he is the head of the case during the government examination, he will definitely not fail. At that time, hehe... their family will be considered as making friends with the official family.

Xiang Haoyu gave his father a blank look: "Brother Pei and I are gentlemen, Dad, don't smile so coldly, it seems like I have an affair with him."

"Oh...What is shivering? Silly boy, this is called relationship building. Do you understand? You are a small juren, and you don't know whether the court can pass it. But Pei's case leader is the case leader. As long as nothing happens, if he wins the case leader twice, no one will beat him. Think about it, isn't he stable? What does it mean for him to pass the court examination? It means that he can participate in the palace examination. At that time... hehehehehe..."

"Dad, you're laughing too obscenely."

Xiang Haoyu was too lazy to care about his father. He finally escaped from a group of elders and went directly to find his father.

He didn't forget what he promised him before going to the county examination.

Now that the exam is over, shouldn’t it be worth it?
Chapter completed!
