"What good thing happened to Zijin to make him smile so happily?"
Su Chong asked.
Liu Zijin has always been reserved, and he mostly smiles when he is happy. They have never seen him laugh like this.
Su Xiaolu narrowed her eyes and said while eating the fragrant meat: "Maybe it's because Sister-in-law Huilan is pregnant."
"What?"
Su Chong was surprised.
Su Hua and Zhou Heng looked at each other and smiled, knowing clearly in their hearts that Liu Zijin loved Wang Huilan deeply and had been looking forward to this child for a long time. Now everything is fine and the child came at the right time. No wonder Liu Zijin laughed happily.
Not long after, Liu Zijin's voice came from outside.
"A Chong, I have good news to tell you."
As soon as the voice fell, people arrived. The smile on Liu Zijin's face did not diminish. He went to Su Chong and patted Su Chong's shoulder and said with a smile: "Ah Chong, I'm going to be a father, and you're going to be a godfather."
.”
Liu Zijin was so happy and in such high spirits that people couldn't help but be happy together.
Su Chong smiled: "Okay, congratulations."
He and Liu Zijin had a good relationship. Early in the morning, Liu Zijin said that his children would recognize him as their godfather in the future, and Su Chong's children would also recognize him as their godfather.
Su Hua said: "Zijin, congratulations to you."
Zhou Heng smiled slightly and said, "Congratulations."
Liu Zijin smiled and nodded: "Thank you, thank you. I also wish you both a good marriage and a happy life."
Speaking of which, Su Chong, Su Hua and Zhou Heng have also reached the marriageable age. After the results are released, their marriage will most likely be finalized.
Su Chong suddenly felt a little embarrassed.
He touched his head. He actually didn't have any idea about marriage. Let's talk about it when we meet.
Su Hua smiled faintly, and Zhou Heng was thoughtful.
Liu Zijin calmed down and walked to Su Xiaolu: "Xiaolu, thank you. Your sister-in-law said it. Thanks to you, otherwise we wouldn't even know."
God knows how happy he was when he found out that Wang Huilan was pregnant. He couldn't help but worry when he found out that Wang Huilan had some fetal force, but also knew how relieved he was after knowing that Wang Huilan said that Su Xiaolu would prescribe anti-fetal medicine.
Su Xiaolu smiled and said: "It's easy to do, but there are some precautions during pregnancy. Sexual intercourse is prohibited in the first three months."
Su Xiaolu is a doctor, so when he thought of the taboos about pregnancy, he just mentioned them casually.
Liu Zijin's face turned red, and his voice suddenly softened a few degrees: "I know."
Su Chong, Su Hua and Zhou Heng couldn't help but laugh.
They really believe that there are no men or women in front of the doctor.
Wang Huilan couldn't eat garlic, which was found in braised pork, so Liu Zijin only took steamed buns in the morning.
Su Xiaolu prescribed anti-fetal medicine for Wang Huilan to drink.
Wang Huilan's complexion quickly improved.
Because Wang Huilan was pregnant, Liu Zijin hired a cook to cook. The cook was very good at cooking, so Su Xiaolu and others had delicious food.
On the ninth day of October, the provincial examination results were released.
Many people are waiting to see their names.
Su Chong is good at martial arts, so this task was given to him.
When he saw Su Hua's name written clearly on the first place, Su Chong couldn't help but smile. He then looked down and saw that the second place was Liu Zijin. He was in the sixteenth place, and Zhou Heng was in the ninth place.
Ten people, after reading it, Su Chong squeezed out.
He smiled and said: "Congratulations, we are all on the list. The first place is Master Jie Yuan, which is my brother, the second place is Zijin, and the ninth place is brother Heng."
Zhou Heng's ranking was something he deliberately concealed, as long as he is famous.
Su Hua ranks first and is the well-deserved Jie Yuan.
Liu Zijin sighed in admiration, cupped his hands and said, "Ahua is well deserved. We are all happy together."
He didn't get first place, but he was not bad at second place. From now on, he will be the master of civil examination. Even if the scientific examination stops here, he can still be an official.
However, he still has to participate in the Spring Festival next year, and he wants to see how far he can go.
"Brother, let's go home first."
Some people are happy and some are sad, those who are on the list are beaming with joy, and those who are not on the list are as devastated as a lightning strike. It is better to share this joy when you go home.
The few of them went home together, unable to hide the joy on their faces.
After the results are released, the officers and soldiers will go to report the news. The news of the success of the examination has arrived home before they arrive home.
As soon as they arrived home, Su Xiaolu saw Jin Wu waiting outside the door. Seeing the people around Zhou Zhi, Su Chong and Su Hua were a little wary.
Jin Wu saw Su Xiaolu, he came over and handed over the invitation and said: "Congratulations to Miss Su, and congratulations to you all for your good results. My Highness will also leave for Beijing today. In order to thank Miss Su and you for your efforts in this epidemic,
Contribute, hold a banquet at Jinghong Tower tonight, and invite a few of you to honor me."
Zhou Zhi was supposed to leave for Beijing, but he thought that the results would be released soon, so he postponed it for a few days.
Zhou Zhi’s invitation, should you go or not?
Su Chong didn't want to go, Su Hua was a little pensive, and Zhou Heng was even more pensive.
Su Xiaolu took the invitation and Jin Wu left.
After entering the house, Liu Zijin said first: "I'm going back to my room first. You guys can discuss it. If you want to go, we will go together. If not, then we won't go."
Liu Zijin didn't know about Zhou Zhi and Zhou Heng yet. He left these words and couldn't wait to go back to his room. He also wanted to tell Wang Huilan the good news.
Su Chong and others returned to the main hall.
Su Chong scratched his head: "Then shall we go or not?"
I don't want to go, mainly because I'm worried about Zhou Heng.
If they don't go, Zhou Zhi is the second prince after all. If they are embarrassed by him, he will deal with them casually, which will be enough for them.
Su Hua looked at Su Xiaolu and asked, "Xiaolu, what kind of person do you think he is?"
Su Xiaolu was recuperating Zhou Zhi's body and had contact with him. If he could get more useful information, it would be more convenient for him to make a choice.
Su Xiaolu said truthfully: "I don't know how to explain it. He is relatively cold and quiet. He does everything I ask him to do, but if he doesn't show the real him, I won't know."
Every time Zhou Zhi showed the truth to her, she believed it was true, but that was just what he wanted to show.
"I think we have to go. If nothing else, we have indeed helped a lot during this epidemic."
Su Hua thought about it carefully and said, they really helped a lot after the epidemic.
He thought about it and decided to go.
Su Chong spread his hands: "Then go."
Zhou Heng nodded but said nothing.
When he learned that he was going, Liu Zijin had no objection.
So in the evening, they went to Jinghong Tower together. When they arrived, they saw that the whole Jinghong Tower was bustling with people. Not only did Zhou Zhi invite them, but now everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
When I went upstairs, I saw many familiar faces, all of whom had volunteered to help during the epidemic.
Immediately, someone came to invite them to sit down, and each of them received two taels of silver. Everyone smiled and thanked them one after another.
Zhou Zhi came out and said some words of thanks to everyone. He was modest and polite, which made everyone cheer. He glanced at everyone, showed a gentle smile, raised his glass and toasted a glass of wine, and then Zhou Zhi left.
