The gold list was posted, and the public's favorite new scholar, Parade with Flowers, was about to arrive. Even though it was not so lively at this time, the crowds of people on the street were still constant.
Everything about vaccination and the male-female entanglement between Miss Jun and Lu Yunqi were forgotten at this moment. Everyone was talking and paying attention to the new scholars and talking about the No. 1 pick and the second overall pick.
Miss Jun's carriage and horses walked slowly on the street to avoid the lively crowds.
Groups of people galloped down the street and drove out of the city gate, heading in all directions. Whether they were happy or disappointed, the results of the palace examination would be delivered to the expectant people.
At this time, the atmosphere in the Liuning family's mansion in the north of Yangcheng was very tense.
Mrs. Ning was not as calm as before, but kept walking around the room, twisting the beads in her hands, and reading the Buddhist scriptures in her mouth.
It was quiet inside and outside the yard. Mr. Ning walked in from the outside with a smile, breaking the silence.
"Why are you in such a hurry? The news won't arrive until the day after tomorrow at the earliest." Mr. Ning said, somewhat drunkenly.
Mrs. Ning felt a little angry when she smelled the alcohol.
"How long has it been and you are still drinking?" she said.
"Yunzhao won the Jinshi. Everyone comes to congratulate me. Of course I want to have a few drinks." Mr. Ning said with a smile.
The news that Ning Yunzhao had won the Jinshi had arrived the day before yesterday, and congratulators immediately rushed to the door. Even Taiyuan Mansion sent congratulatory gifts. Although not all visitors were entertained, some relatives and friends still wanted to see him.
Mrs. Ning has no such interest.
"What congratulations do you have for winning the first prize?" she said, "our Yunzhao wants to win the first prize."
"It's all the same," Mr. Ning said with a smile.
How could this be the same? Mrs. Ning glared at Mr. Ning angrily and asked the little girl to go in and rest.
A group of women from the clan also came to congratulate him.
Mrs. Ning also wanted to find someone to talk to and calm her mind, so she entertained these women in the yard.
The women knew Mrs. Ning's concerns and did not talk too much about Ning Yunzhao's achievements. If they praised her well, if she failed to win the top prize, wouldn't it make Mrs. Ning lose face? If she didn't praise her well, she would be asking for it.
Not interesting.
Things that make Mrs. Ning happy to hear are naturally other people's affairs.
"Sister-in-law, is that true? Miss Jun of the Fang family is fighting with the princess in the capital for her husband?" a woman said in a low voice.
A few days ago, news came from the capital that Ning Yunzhao had become a Jinshi. Along with it, there were also new things in the capital brought by the messenger.
Firstly, he was from Yangcheng, and secondly, he had a relationship with the Ning family, so the news about Miss Jun spread in private.
Mrs. Ning hummed in a neutral tone.
"Who knows," she said.
However, they didn't scold everyone not to talk. The women were so excited that they knew they had found the right topic.
"I really didn't expect that."
"To actually do such a thing."
"How could I not have imagined that my father, who was relying on the Fang family, came to our house to cause trouble?"
"Lu Qianhu is very powerful in the capital, so he should be attached to him."
"Now that she has a pimple, the emperor takes it seriously, and the princess has to give in."
"It's really disgusting. If you do something like this, all the men in the world will die. Go and steal your husband."
It's really disgusting. She has lowered herself to such a level. Mrs. Ning twisted her beads.
"Um, when will we vaccinate our family?" A voice suddenly came out in the midst of joking.
These words stopped the women's talking and laughing.
Although Miss Jun treated everyone equally and did not follow the officials from Yangcheng and Runan, she still had a sense of hometown affection, and the first batch of vaccination doctors were assigned to both Yangcheng and Runan.
Many people in the city have been vaccinated, but a few people are still waiting and watching. The Ning family is one of those few people.
The reason is naturally that the vaccination was caused by Miss Jun. Everyone in the Ning family knew about the relationship between Miss Jun and Mrs. Ning. In order not to offend Mrs. Ning, no one got vaccinated.
But as more and more people are vaccinated, many people in the Ning clan can't sit still.
"Madam, she has no children. She can endure it, but we cannot."
"The emperor planted it for the prince and princess, so it must be fine."
"And this kind of acne does not belong to the Fang family. It is under the control of the government and treats everyone equally."
There are more and more such discussions, Mrs. Ning has heard about it, and now someone finally couldn't help but come to talk to her.
The atmosphere in the courtyard was a little stagnant.
"You can do it anytime." Mrs. Ning smiled lightly, "Everyone can do whatever you want."
Although the woman was a little worried, she was more happy.
"I heard it's very simple. The forest owner is in charge of this matter," she said.
As soon as the words were spoken, the atmosphere became stagnant again.
Only then did the woman react, with a stern look on her face.
The forest owner is thin.
Mrs. Ning's face was grave.
Ning Yunyan was already married. She got married so early. She didn't catch up with her brother who won the first prize. There was a good time for her brother to get married, so she didn't have a bigger occasion at her husband's house.
This is because of Lin Boss Bo's daughter.
Today was such a good day, but she mentioned two people who disgusted her.
Mrs. Ning didn't bother to hide it anymore.
"I'm tired, I'm going to rest first," she said, got up and walked away.
The women all stood up in a murmuring manner, not wanting to follow her. Seeing that Mrs. Ning had indeed entered the room, they had no choice but to leave in a murmuring manner.
"What nonsense are you talking about?" several women scolded in low voices.
"I'm not talking nonsense. Don't you want your children to be vaccinated? You know, during the Chinese New Year, several children in the next few villages died of acne." The woman whispered, "Now everyone else is vaccinated.
Now, we are left, what will we do if we are passed on?"
Most of these women had children in their families, or relatives had children, and they all stopped talking after hearing this.
"Then when are we going?" a woman said suddenly.
"Just go as you say. It won't take an hour to get in the car, and it will be quick to get the vaccination there." The woman who spoke first said hurriedly, "It will only take a while. It will take half a day to drive back and forth. If you are not worried, you can go to the designated place
Stay one night at the hospital."
It was so convenient, and the women dispersed in a whisper.
Listening to the women outside making an appointment, whispering happily and dispersing, Mrs. Ning, who was standing by the window, put down the beads in her hand bitterly.
That's all, no matter what new tricks she comes up with, they can't equal her ruined reputation.
Mrs. Ning took a few deep breaths, looked at the worshiping Bodhisattva, and knelt down devoutly.
Her son will definitely win the first prize.
Her son will be a cloud in the sky and will have nothing to do with the mud.

Lu Yunqi was not present in Prince Huai's Mansion today, but when he saw Miss Jun coming, the door of Prince Huai's Mansion opened without the slightest hesitation.
This must have been Lu Yunqi's order.
Miss Jun walked in, and this time King Huai was waiting for her in the palace, but Mr. Gu was not around.
"His Royal Highness said he was feeling a little uncomfortable, but he did not have acne." The maid and eunuch said nervously.
King Huai lay on the bed facing inward and seemed to be asleep.
"Let me see if there is any fever." Miss Jun said.
The maid and eunuch were a little uneasy.
"Your Highness insists on sleeping like this, probably because he feels uncomfortable." They said while trying to turn King Huai over.
It is indeed uncomfortable to sleep like this, at least my buttocks are uncomfortable.
Miss Jun sat down by the bed.
"No need." She stopped the palace maid, "I can do it this way."
As she spoke, she reached out and caressed Prince Huai's inward-facing cheek.
His subordinate, Prince Huai, trembled slightly and turned his head in embarrassment.
Miss Jun put her hand on his forehead again.
"Don't move," she said.
King Huai clenched his hands at his side, but his head did not move.
Miss Jun touched it for a moment and then retracted her hand.
"Some fever." She said, taking out a bag of medicinal powder and "boil this."
The palace maid and the eunuch hurriedly responded, took it and left.
Miss Jun didn't expect that the palace maids and eunuchs had left, and she and Jiu Fu were the only two people left in the palace. They were a little uncomfortable with the silence.
"Let me give you some medicine," she said.
Jiu Feng lay on the bed and turned his head inward again.
"No need." He said in a low voice.
Miss Jun couldn't help but smile and reached out to pat his shoulder.
"Okay, stop making trouble. It's not shameful to give medicine." She said, then paused, "It's my fault for hitting you, I was too anxious..."
Before she finished speaking, Jiu Fu's body lying on the bed was trembling slightly, and he suddenly stood up and knelt down to look at her.
"Who are you?" he asked tremblingly, his eyes widening.
Miss Jun stopped talking and her body stiffened.
That's not what he meant when he asked, right? (To be continued)
