Linyuan, Bamboo Pavilion.

Daiyu sat alone on the swing, holding an embroidered stretcher in her hand, lowering her head and doing needlework.

To be honest, reading, writing, playing the piano, and playing chess are all her strengths, but female celebrities are her least good at them.

Dai Yuyuan didn't want to put too much thought into this, but the last time Lin Yun won the championship, Shi Xiangyun helped him make a pair of shoes, which was praised by his brother.

This incident deeply touched her, and when she thought about her brother's concern for sister Xiangyun, she immediately felt a sense of crisis.

Making shoes is too difficult, and I don’t have time to learn it now. It’s easy to make shoes, but I’ve already given them to several, so it’s not unusual to give them away again.

After much thought, she decided to embroider a purse for her brother to use to hold the silver coins.

In this way, the brother can use it often and will definitely remember the benefits of her sister.

…

Daiyu was engrossed in embroidery when Furong came over with a cup of hot tea and said: "Girl, drink a cup of hot tea and rest for a while before embroidering again."

"Just wait a moment until I finish embroidering these stitches. It's not too late to take a rest."

Furong advised Daiyu: "Girl, let me help you embroider."

Of all the maids in the house, Furong's nvren is the best, and Daiyu also learned how to make nvren from her.

Daiyu rolled her eyes at Furong and said, "What are you talking about? The most important thing in giving a gift is sincerity. If you do it for me, what is the value of this gift?"

Furong thought to herself, "I'm worried about you. I can make this kind of girl's work in one night. She's been working on it for a week, but she hasn't finished it yet. I'm really worried about her."

While the two were talking, they suddenly saw Xue Yan running in like a whirlwind. He smiled at Dai Yu and said, "Girl, brother Xiao Mo came back to report that the third master won the third prize in the imperial examination, just like our master."

"ah!"

Daiyu accidentally pricked her finger. She put her finger to her mouth and blew air while asking in surprise: "Is brother back home?"

Xue Yan: "I haven't come back yet. Brother Xiao Mo said that the Third Master has to go to the Golden Palace to thank the Emperor and will not be able to return home until later."

Fu Rong said in surprise: "The third master and the master have won the third prize. This is a double prize."

At this time, Zicuckoo and Pearl ran out of the house together.

Zicuckoo asked Xueyan: "Xueyan, just now you said that the third master got the third flower?"

Xue Yan nodded and said: "Yes, the third master, like the master, won the lottery."

Pearl hurriedly asked: "Isn't it said outside that our third master can win the top prize?"

Daiyu smiled and said: "Although the number one scholar sounds good, it is of little use. You don't know that since ancient times, there have been very few number one scholars who can serve as chief ministers of the dynasty."

Zijuan asked hurriedly: "Girl, do you mean that our third master will be the chief minister in the future?"

Daiyu said with a proud look on her face: "That's natural. My brother is knowledgeable and talented, and he is highly valued by the emperor. He will definitely be the chief assistant in the future."

Xue Yan said happily: "If that's true, that would be great."

Daiyu handed the embroidered quilt in her hand to Zijuan, and then said to the maids: "Come on, let's go to mother's place and have a look. My brother should be back home soon."

"yes."

…

Daiyu led several maids to Jia Min's side. From a long distance, she heard festive laughter coming from the living room.

When he walked into the living room, he saw Jia Min sitting at the top, Qin Keqing sitting next to him, and a group of maids and women standing on both sides, talking about the news that Lin Yun had won the third prize.

Daiyu quickly stepped forward and saluted Jia Min and Qin Keqing respectively, "My daughter has met her mother."

"Yu'er has met my sister-in-law."

Jia Min: "Yu'er, you must be here to inquire about your brother's ranking in the imperial examination, right?"

"My daughter heard that her brother was selected by the emperor for the imperial examination. Is it true?"

Jia Min: "Yes, your brother was indeed selected by the emperor as the third flower."

Daiyu walked to Qin Keqing and sat down, took her hand and smiled: "Congratulations, sister-in-law."

Qin Keqing said with a smile on her face: "We are happy together! We are happy together!"

Daiyu asked Jia Min again: "Did mother send someone to announce the good news to father?"

"Already sent."

"Where are the ancestors?"

"I'm afraid the old lady has already heard the news."

Daiyu smiled and said: "Second brother Lian must have gone to see the imperial list."

"Exactly."

…

Just as everyone was laughing and celebrating, a burst of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside.

Immediately, a servant shouted loudly: "Tanhua Lang has returned home!"

After hearing this, everyone looked out the door.

Not long after, Lin Yun was seen walking quickly from the door.

After Lin Yun saluted Jia Min, Daiyu stood up and saluted him, then smiled and said: "Congratulations to my brother on winning the title of Hualang!"

"Thank you!"

Daiyu asked again: "Since my brother won the third prize, why didn't he come back in official uniform?"

Lin Yun explained: "I just took my measurements in the palace today. I have to wait until the official uniforms are made and distributed over there before I can wear them."

Qin Keqing: "I heard that new academicians have to parade through the streets on horseback and be watched by the people. Is this true?"

Lin Yun nodded and said, "Yes."

Daiyu jokingly said: "Brother, my sister-in-law is worried that you will be caught as a son-in-law when you are parading on the horse."

Hahaha~

Everyone laughed when they heard this, and Qin Keqing's face turned red with embarrassment.

Lin Yun chuckled and said: "My sister has inquired so clearly. Could it be that she wants Zhenzhu to help you catch a handsome man and come back to be my brother-in-law?"

Hahaha~

Everyone laughed loudly again.

Daiyu said angrily: "Mom, brother, he bullies me."

Jia Min smiled angrily and said, "You deserve it! Who asked you to make fun of Ke'er first?"

"I'm ignoring you."

Daiyu couldn't save face, so she could only pretend to be angry and ran out the door.

Jia Min asked Lin Yun a few more questions and asked him to accompany Qin Keqing back to rest.

…

As soon as the couple returned to their residence, Ping'er led Xiangling, Yingge and a group of maids and women over to congratulate Lin Yun.

Lin Yun had a smile on his face, but felt a little bitter in his heart. Tanhua was going to enter the Hanlin Academy, and it would be difficult for him to lead troops in the future.

After sending everyone away, Lin Yun helped Qin Keqing into the bedroom to rest.

Qin Keqing is very satisfied with Lin Yun's top pick in high school. She does not have the same enterprising spirit as Jia Min. Now that Lin Yun has won the first-level top pick, she can stay in the Hanlin Academy as an official and stay with her every day from now on. That would be great.

.

However, she still keenly felt that Lin Yun was not happy.

After sitting down next to the couch, Qin Keqing snuggled into Lin Yun's arms and asked softly: "Husband, are you unhappy because you missed the number one scholar?"

Lin Yun: "It has always been difficult for the first place to win the first place in the competition. I have been mentally prepared for this."

Qin Keqing: "Then why is your husband unhappy?"

"Well,"

Lin Yun didn't expect Qin Keqing to be so sensitive. He hurriedly found an excuse and said: "After the exam, several friends from the same department will go their separate ways. I was unhappy just now because of this."

Qin Keqing comforted him and said, "There is nothing we can do about it. After the appointment, my husband can invite them to the mansion to hold a banquet."

"Um."

Lin Yun nodded, then straightened Qin Keqing's body, put his head on her abdomen and said with a smile, "Let me listen carefully to see if our child behaved today."

Qin Keqing put her hand on Lin Yun's shoulder and said with a smile: "Now that you have some free time, please help our child choose a name."

"Let my uncle choose the name. He is knowledgeable and the name he chose sounds nice."

After a pause, Lin Yun said again: "I'll let my uncle choose the nickname, and we'll choose the nickname ourselves."

"I listen to my husband."
