Extra: Tang Family Follow-up

Although their family will not become rich after moving to the capital, their livelihood expenses will not be a problem.

But Tang's father refused. He wanted to return to Dong'an Mansion with Tang's mother.

Tang's mother is not yet emotionally stable. If she goes to the capital, she will definitely interfere with their husband and wife's affairs. He only asked Tang Wenqian to take Jiang to the capital. With Jiang here, he can relax.

So Tang's father and Tang's mother returned to Dong'an Prefecture, while Tang Wenqian and Jiang went to the capital.

During the Spring Festival this year, when Shu Yu and the others returned to their uncle's house in Shangshi Village, they met Tang's father and Tang's mother.

Tang's mother lost a lot of weight and became taciturn.

Shu Yu didn't inquire much about the Tang family's affairs, but Liang did.

It is said that Tang's mother hardly goes out to socialize with people now, but Tang's father, who had no sense of presence before, now walks around the village a lot.

Tang's mother was afraid of being laughed at. When Tang Wenqian became an official, she was so prosperous. There was an endless stream of people at home and outside the house, all of whom came to congratulate her. She was very proud for a few days, and then she showed up in front of everyone.

I left Shangshi Village out of envy and did not come back for several years.

Now that his son resigned, the couple returned to the village in despair, wondering how much ridicule they would receive.

However, the reality was not as bad as Tang's mother imagined. As soon as they came back, Tang's father explained the situation to Village Chief Fan.

For those villagers who were curious about their return, Village Chief Fan also helped explain them one by one.

Today's Shangshi Village is different from the past. Most of the people in the village follow Shu Yu to plant sunflowers and work in the workshops. They have gained more knowledge, and their eyes are no longer focused on the three-acre land.

They even felt that Tang Wenqian was ambitious. Although it was good to be promoted to an official position, he still dared to resign and take the exam again, relying on his knowledge to reenter the court.

What courage.

What's more, Meng Yunzheng, who had won the first prize in the exam but resigned and returned to his hometown, took the lead. The villagers were already very receptive to this kind of thing.

Except for a few people who had trouble dealing with Tang's mother and said a few sour words behind their backs, the villagers in Shangshi Village were relatively friendly to them.

After Tang's father came back, many villagers in the village who sent their children to study came to befriend him and asked how they educated Tang Wenqian. In the eyes of these people, Tang Wenqian was still a rare child prodigy in Shangshi Village.

Shu Yu didn't know how Tang Wenqian was doing in the Imperial College, but he knew that the life of Tang Wenqian's parents in Shangshi Village was not bad.

They were not very familiar with the current magistrate of Chenggu County, so they did not go to the county government office. After staying at the Mengjia Escort Bureau for a day, they returned to Changjin Mansion early the next morning.

Afterwards, the convoy set off again, heading towards the capital.

However, the number of people in the team was reduced by one-third this time. The convoy coming to Changjin Mansion for delivery did not need to go to the capital and returned directly to Dong'an Mansion.

Changjin Mansion was much closer to the capital, so the group speeded up. By the time they arrived at the gate of the capital, there was still more than half a month before the Jingyan lectures.

However, even though there is still such a long time, the capital at this time is already full of teachers and students from all over the country. Looking at the road ahead, most of them are people wearing elegant robes, talking and laughing all about this event.

The content of the banquet lecture.

Fortunately, they had already sent a letter in advance to prepare a place to stay. Otherwise, so many people would not even have a place to rest.
