When Jiang Xiaohua went back, Xiaoba had not returned yet.
After entering the courtyard, I saw my elder brother Jiang Hongzhi talking to my grandma.
The eldest brother is back from Mr. Tao's house.
Seeing Jiang Xiaohua, Jiang Hongzhi hesitated for a moment and then walked towards Jiang Xiaohua.
Before she even opened her mouth, Mrs. Jiang stopped her again: "Hong Zhi, go to the workshop and call your mother back. I have something to tell her. I'm in a hurry! There's also your third aunt."
Before Jiang Hongzhi could open his mouth, Jiang Xiaohua said with a smile: "Brother, if you have something to do with me, please contact your eldest aunt and third aunt. Go quickly! We'll talk to you later if you have something to do."
Jiang Hongzhi looked back at his grandma and went out.
Every time the eldest brother wants to say something to himself, he is always interrupted.
This is?
Is something really wrong?
Moreover, everyone in the family knew about this, so what would happen if she was the only one to hide it from her!
Jiang Xiaohua looked over and saw her grandma looking at her with a smile: "Hua'er, come, grandma has made a new skirt for you! You try it!"
"Mom, I already have a lot of skirts. They are enough to wear. I don't need to make so many skirts and waste my eyes!"
"What girl doesn't like skirts! My granddaughter is so beautiful, no amount of skirts are enough!"
Jiang Xiaohua went to try it on. It was tailor-made and it fit naturally.
The skirt made by Mrs. Jiang has dense stitching.
There are also some small flowers embroidered on the hem of the skirt.
Jiang Xiaohua put it on and walked around the room: "Does it look good, breast?"
"Good-looking! My granddaughter looks good in anything she wears!"
Jiang Xiaohua was slightly puzzled.
Old Mrs. Jiang treated her as always, no difference.
What could it be?
After Xiao Ba came back, he dragged Jiang Xiaohua into the room uncharacteristically.
"What, something happened?" Jiang Xiaohua asked.
Xiao Ba frowned and shook his head: "Little master, when I first came back, I saw Aunt Zhou sending the official media away. The official media was drunk, so I helped the official media get on the oxcart, and then I heard the official media muttering a few words.
, what do you say, 'What a pity, the Su family master has fallen in love with someone from the Jiang family!'"
"They also said, 'Why are you hiding this great thing! There are so many people targeting Lao Jiang's family now!'"
"Little master, who is the official media talking about? Is it our Lao Jiang family? Which family is the Su family?"
"Is there anything else?" Jiang Xiaohua asked.
Xiaoba shook his head: "The official media drank too much, fell asleep as soon as they got on the bullock cart, and stopped talking."
Jiang Xiaohua thought for a while, and it seemed that something was really going on.
However, if it is really related to the Su family, you can actually ask someone.
Su Yuan!
That guy has been wandering around in front of me lately, for some reason, and his grandparents are quite enthusiastic about Su Yu'an.
I have made up my mind to go to Yuntang Town tomorrow.
Early the next morning.
Lao Jiang's family got up early in the morning.
Old Jiangtou stood guard at the entrance of the courtyard, and Mrs. Jiang would also go and stand at the entrance of the courtyard from time to time.
The uncle and the others have all taken leave today.
Look at how nervous they all are.
Only then did Jiang Xiaohua remember that today was the day when the results would be released.
The list of those who passed the Qiu Wei examination will be posted outside the prefectural government office early in the morning.
Scholars who live in Ganquan Prefecture can go directly to the list.
In remote areas, the prefectural government would send officials to deliver the lists to various places, and then the local officials would deliver letters to the successful candidates.
Breakfast was made by my third aunt.
Everyone in Lao Jiang's family seemed to have lost their appetite. After eating a few mouthfuls of food, they went for a walk in front of the courtyard gate.
The only parties involved were Jiang Xiaohua, Jiang Hongzhi and Xiaoba.
Xiaoba's appetite is as good as ever, and it's not affected at all.
Jiang Xiaohua also ate slowly, but gave up on going to Yuntang Town to find Su Yu'an.
Let’s wait for the news at home since the results are released today.
Outside the courtyard gate.
The eldest aunt was very anxious: "Why don't you come?"
Old Jiangtou sat on the stone outside the courtyard gate: "What's the hurry? Wait a minute!"
The uncle didn't say anything, but his eyes were fixed on the road where the yamen servant came to deliver the letter.
In the house.
"Brother, are you worried?" Jiang Xiaohua asked.
Jiang Hongzhi smiled softly: "There is nothing to worry about!"
Jiang Xiaohua nodded. He is a capable person and his determination is very good.
And Jiang Xiaohua believes that her eldest brother Jiang Hongzhi will definitely do well in the exam this time.
While everyone in the family went outside the courtyard gate.
Jiang Xiaohua coughed lightly: "Brother, do you have something to say to me?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Jiang Hongzhi paused with his chopsticks in mid-air.
He looked hesitant.
Before Jiang Hongzhi could speak, the village suddenly became lively with the sound of gongs and drums.
Jiang Xiaohua saw her elder brother's dilemma, put down her chopsticks, and said, "Let's go out and have a look. It should be the government servant who has sent a letter."
Old Jiangtou was sitting, but when he heard the sound of gongs and drums, he immediately stood up, walked a few steps forward and then stepped back. After thinking for a while, he said to his eldest son and third son: "Hurry up and go and see
look!"
After saying that, the man sat down again.
Jiang Xiangwen and Jiang Xiangyuan hurriedly walked to the entrance of the village.
The eldest aunt was anxious and followed her.
Jiang Xiaohua came to the courtyard gate, stood next to Old Jiangtou, and asked: "Master, grandma, are you ready for the red seal?"
Old Mrs. Jiang slapped her forehead: "Oh, look, no one else has calmed down yet. We were so anxious that we forgot about preparing the red seal! I'm going to prepare it now."
Old Mrs. Jiang took a few steps back and then ran back: "Hua'er, how much do you think is appropriate to prepare?"
"Our eldest brother's ranking in this exam cannot be relied upon! Prepare a red envelope worth one tael of silver! I just don't know how many government servants will come to deliver the letter. Prepare a few more in case there are not enough. By the way, breast, let the eldest brother change his clothes.
Clothes for visiting guests.”
"Oh, Hua'er is still thoughtful, let's go right now!"
After a while, Jiang Hongzhi changed his clothes and came out with a calm face.
Jiang Hongzhi’s determination is by no means a thing in the pond.
The noise of the crowd could be heard not far away, and it was very lively.
Lao Jiang led Jiang Hongzhi to greet him, and saw two government servants approaching with cheerful faces.
"Congratulations to Jiang Xiaolang for your new crown prince!"
"Your young man is truly a genius!"
"One day the fish will leap over the Dragon Gate and win the title of Toad Palace!"
Jiang Xiaohua looked back at Jiang Hongzhi in surprise. She didn't expect her eldest brother to do so well in the exam.
Old Mrs. Jiang had already stuffed a red envelope into the hand of the government servant who delivered the letter.
Yamen servants are all smart people. They can tell how much money there is by just twisting their fingers. No wonder people outside say that the people in Dalingzi Village are very rich. The thank you gift contains one tael of silver. This red envelope is designated as the largest.
.
When the yamen servant received the money as a thank you gift, he spoke more auspicious words.
The eldest aunt hurried home and brought out peanuts, melon seeds and candies, and distributed them to the villagers who came to congratulate her.
People in the whole village were talking and laughing, and it was very lively.
Jiang Xiaohua whispered to Mrs. Jiang, let the chef in the kitchen cook according to the standards of the banquet today, as a congratulation to the eldest brother!
Mrs. Jiang smiled and nodded and said this is good.
