The journey home was smooth, especially the rest of the night. The place to rest was the house where the Chen family bought cheaply to go to the prefecture to do business. In the past, He Zijin would live here when he went to the prefecture to sell flowers. When he arrived at that house, Old Madam He wanted to look up at the sky, as if it was not A Nian who was in Jie Yuan but her. The Chen family manager who followed the He family back to Bishui County was also very good at making fun of it. Before he could reach the door of the house, he shouted loudly, "I haven't come out to welcome Master Jie Yuan!"

When he shouted, a group of crows came out, all of whom had already received a letter and was waiting to serve Master Jie Yuan.

Mr. Jie Yuan A Nian jumped out of the car to greet his sister Zijin. This is what happened when he went out. Although A Nian is not old, he is very good at taking care of his sister Zijin. Although he doesn't take a car, he will get out of the car and run to help his sister Zijin get off the car. He is very considerate. He Gong is also a filial son. Usually, He Gong goes over to help his mother, but this time it won't work. He Gong goes over and helps her mother down. He looks back like cramps in the corner of his eyes. Seeing Mr. Jie Yuan A Nian is helping her girl movie, Mr. He is depressed: She also wants to ask Mr. Jie Yuan to help her, okay?

After a second best, he was helped into the door by his son, who was newly promoted to the juren. The flattery of the boys in the courtyard immediately made up for the depression that Mr. He was not helped by Master Jie Yuan. These boys and maids were talking nonsense when they flattered. From the time the He family had just started the car, they photographed the He family going to the house to rest and talk, and were still making fun of flattering.

First, I praise Master Jie Yuan A Nian. Needless to say, this is definitely Wenquxing. Then I praise He Gong. This master is not like Wenquxing, but he passed the exam. Moreover, although this master is not Jie Yuan, he is Jie Yuan’s father-in-law. Third, you are wise and powerful, and have trained a son and a son-in-law of Jie Yuan. You are not an ordinary person! Fourth, you praise Shen, and you have become a wife of the Juren, and Jie Yuan’s mother-in-law. Of course, the most blessed person must be the cousin He Xiaoxian. He used to be a famous fairy girl in the three towns and five miles. As expected, the fairy girl has a fairy relationship. Now, she has a marriage with Wenquxing. Besides, there are two cousin masters, A Liejun, two cousin masters, Juren’s father and Jie Yuan’s brother-in-law. Are you afraid that the two cousin masters have no future!

When flattering like this, the servants also felt that, oh, the uncle and the old lady's family was about to develop, so they were even more attentive to serve.

My mother He listened to the servants' flattery and felt comfortable, but she made up her mind and decided that no matter how you photographed it, my old lady didn't even give her a penny to reward her~

When Mrs. He was stingy, Mrs. Shen offered to reward money. It was a great event and it was also a blessing for the servants.

The key point is that Shen herself was very happy. In the past few years, except for the time when she got married, everything was good. Although she was not rich and noble, her family was full of children. The couple was loving, and the mother-in-law was also good to treat her well. Even if she lived like this, Shen didn't feel that she was unlucky. She never thought that she would become a juren's wife when her husband won. Shen was happy that she would be happy even if she paid more rewards. Especially her daughter, she was better than her life.

When Shen married into the county from a small Changshui Village, she became a scholarly lady. The villagers envied her so much that she was very envious, and they all said that she was blessed. Now it seems that her daughter is more blessed than her.

Shen now sees A Nian as a thousand likes. What a good child. He has seen A Nian grow up, knowing his roots and childhood sweethearts. Fortunately, he has started his own efforts early.

Shen ordered a few light side dishes under the kitchen. After dinner, the family rested early and had to hurry up tomorrow as soon as the sun was dawn.

I took a rest in the Chen family's house for a night and arrived at home at noon the next day.

Before the carriage entered the county gate, I saw many people wearing red colored colors on the county gate from afar. Before the Chen family arrived, there were firecrackers roaring, and then the city gate was full of lively gongs and drums, making Mrs. He so beautiful that he couldn't sit in the car. He lifted the curtain and saw, "Oh, relatives and friends have arrived, how can he sit in the car?" Old Man He got out of the car. He never brags about that scene. He walked all the way, beat the gongs and drums all the way. Oh, that lively and festive are all recorded in the county annals of Bishui County.

When the He family and his group returned home, oh, the relatives and friends couldn't sit in the room, and there were not enough chairs. They just sat on the older ones and stood on the younger ones, talking in a noisy way.

They are all good things, and they praise each other, mainly to praise He Gong'a's father-in-law and son-in-law. How great is it? The father-in-law and son-in-law are on the list, so what's the beautiful talk about! When relatives and friends bid farewell to each other in the evening, Mrs. He felt his face sore.

Just like that, she didn't feel tired, and she would open a mat tomorrow, and it would be fully equipped for three days! As for what I said before, "I have to pack up my things and go to the imperial capital to take the Jinshi. After I pass the Jinshi, I will come back and arrange it for ten days!"

The He family's mat was so easy to put on. The third girl opened a restaurant and there were He Zijin's shares. He Zijin had already spoken out and wanted to make a fortune from her grandmother. She scared her mother and gave her fifty taels and asked her to buy it at this price. If the money was not enough, there would be no more money.

This was arranged by Miss San. In addition to the chef of Miss San’s Restaurant, he borrowed some people from other restaurants, and bought fish, meat, eggs and vegetables in large quantities, and the price was also discounted. Hu Wen, Jiangren and Shen Shan came to help entertain guests. On that day, President Hu and the county magistrate came over to have a glass of water and wine together.

Hu Shanzhu was originally the head of the academy, A Nian's husband, and he was in-laws with the He family, so it was nothing. When the county magistrate came, the He family was really flattered. He Gong A Nian's father-in-law and son-in-law came over to meet him. In the past, when he met the county magistrate, he always had to bow to him. Now that A Nianzhong understands Yuan, there is no need to ceremonials, and peers discuss friendship.

The bearded county magistrate talked to A Nian and was very friendly, which made He Gong’s generation not very easy to discuss. County Magistrate Sun has been in Bishui County for many years and has a good reputation, but because he is not in a family relationship, he has never been promoted. The county magistrate now saw A Nian as if he was seeing his own son, and he was very intimate. Later, according to Chief Hu, it was because the county came to know Yuan Yuan, which was a great achievement of Sun County Magistrate Sun. In addition, the turmoil in the prefecture this year, the promotion of the county magistrate is just around the corner.

The magistrate of Sun County laughed, "I have seen my brother's article. With my brother's talent, the Ming Dynasty's Spring Examination will definitely be a sure thing. Do you plan to go to the imperial capital to take the exam?"

A Nianqian said, "I discussed with my father-in-law and went to the imperial capital when the family was cleaned up."

"I wish your father-in-law and son-in-law a smooth journey and will win the Golden List next year."

If you say this, you can't be humble. A Nian smiled, "I just hope to be as good as the great man."

After a few jokes from the county magistrate Sun, he had to do a serious business. The county magistrate didn't just come to have a drink, but mainly to give A Nian the plaque of Jie Yuandi. Yes! Jie Yuan has a plaque! Among the juren, only Jie Yuan has this honor!

The He family now has the most lacking firecrackers. Two yamen runners carried the largest plaque of Jieyuan with black background, gold-shaped red silk, and amid the sound of firecrackers, A Nian Gun reached the gate of the house.

Everyone from half of the county came to congratulate A Nian, and A Nian gave in and returned the gift.

It was a bustling outside, and it was almost Double Ninth Festival and the weather was cold. Everyone turned to the house to talk. The men simply said that the autumn examinations were about the future of the spring examinations, and the women's topic was centered on Mrs. He.

Some people said, "At the time when the house of Lao Bai's family said that Feng Shui was not good, and the old Bai family was ruined. Just living in Jie Yuanlang would be a prosperous family. I think it was not because the Feng Shui was not good, but because the old Bai family would not have such prosperous life!"

Since the son and grandson-in-law of the family passed the imperial examination, Mrs. He's voice was octave higher when he spoke. Moreover, she developed the problem of raising her chin and holding her chin to look at people. So Mrs. He raised her chin and said, "Of course this is different. The house that A Nian bought, but my girl helped him clean up. If there is any adverse Feng Shui, it will be changed long ago! If this Feng Shui is not up to date, then there will be no Feng Shui that can be up to date!"

The third wife of the Hu family quickly inquired and said, "I heard that even if we are the little fairy, Jie Yuanlang, will definitely win before the autumn examination."

Mrs. He looked proud, "Yes, I'll have already calculated it."

"Zi Jin, are you still telling the fortune? Why don't you tell me a fortune?" Hu Xuan, the son of Mrs. Hu's third wife, also ended this year, but his luck was not good and he fell into the list.

"Aunt, it's been a matter of calculating the autumn examination for A Nian and my father before the seal of the gods. I won't forget it now." He Zijin laughed, "You don't have to count your fate. Look at your aunt's face, the fields are wide, the chin is plump, the people are clear, the nose is high and straight, the hanging beads are thick, and the eyebrows are bright and clear. This is a first-class and good face, and there will be a good decree in the future."

Mrs. Hu San was so happy that Mrs. Hu San laughed, "Hey, I just hope to respond to your words." It is impossible for a man to let her be an imperial edict, and Mrs. Hu San's hope lies with her son.

Seeing that He Zijin was talking and having a nose and eyes, Mrs. Hu couldn't help but ask, "Have you ever calculated it? How about the Spring Examination?" Since I heard that A Nianzhong knew about Yuan and Mrs. Hu, it was not said that the He family was just the home of the third girl and grandmother. Now, Mrs. Hu is treating the He family seriously as her in-laws.

"This is really not counting."

Mrs. He was quite regretful, "I should have forgotten it at the beginning."

Mrs. Hu laughed, "The old lady in the in-laws just cares about her peace of mind. There is no unreasonable reason for such a good literary talent as Jie Yuanlang. She may come back next year and become the top scholar."

Mrs. He was really not used to Mrs. Hu's smile on her face. She thought to herself that if she was a young man at home, she would be so snobbish. Mrs. He was not humble at all and said, "Yes, I said that too. Although it is more certain to calculate, the child's ability is here, does it count? If he has the ability, he will have the fate!"

The first time in his life, Mrs. Hu met such an unhumble person, but this person was still her in-laws. Mrs. Hu looked down on the He family the most. As a result, the situation was stronger than others. Mrs. Hu had to smile and said to herself, "Aren't you just a hit Jie Yuan, and you have never seen such a arrogant face."

Mrs. He ignored Mrs. Hu, and then talked about how she helped her husband and son-in-law in the prefecture to assist the exam. Mrs. He said, "You must drink the porridge every day. When you wake up in the morning, don't do anything. First, you can break the branches, the most tender and most beautiful osmanthus flowers in the house, and eat osmanthus cakes. This is the daily diet. In addition, you have to wear red inside and outside. Remember, from the exam in the tribute school to the day of the issuance of the list, you cannot say the word "fall", which is unlucky. Bodhisattvas must also remember to worship. You can't be stingy when donating incense and oil. If you are unpragmatic, the Bodhisattva will not protect you."

Someone asked, "Wasn't Jidi Porridge on the day of the exam?"

Mrs. He shook her hand, "Which scholar doesn't drink the first porridge during the exam? People's luck is actually certain, but why should we go to the test? It is to bless the luck of the children. The luck has arrived, and the children's articles have been honed. It's not a sure thing for the title on the list." She also has a set of theories, saying, "It is said that people and things will be done. If God wants to fulfill his wishes, God must know that we are pious and will naturally give it to our children!"

Mrs. Hu said to Mrs. Hu, "Next autumn exam, let's go together." This time, the Hu brothers went to the exam and both fell out of the list. Mrs. Hu smiled in front of Mrs. He, and wanted to hear if there were any wonderful methods in the He family. After hearing what Mrs. He said, Mrs. Hu felt that it was not in vain to come over to smile. Her in-laws still had some knowledge.

Mrs. Hu San's son failed and said he was false to say that he was not sorry. However, her son was still young and could not afford to wait. Mrs. Hu San smiled and said to Mrs. Hu, "I'm just afraid that I will go, and the child will be even more nervous."

Mrs. He said, "What's the point of being nervous? If you are nervous, you have to practice more. In-law, think about it. This autumn exam is the first step to becoming an official. Now you are nervous. What should I do if the spring exam? I heard that after the spring exam, you have to go to the Golden Palace to meet the emperor. Oh, are you nervous when you meet the emperor? Don't be afraid, you can practice it."

Despite the rough words of Mrs. He, Mrs. Hu thought it was polite and laughed, "Okay! I'll try it in the future. My aunt is better than me. You teach me a juren and a wise man. Let's take a look at our Bishui County. Who can compare with you, aunt?"

Mrs. He saw that Mrs. Hu was more pleasing to Mrs. Hu, so she was modest and smiled, "Mrs. My in-laws joked about me again. No one in our county can compare to your old lady."

Old Mrs. Hu laughed, "Hey, that's not. I haven't taught Jie Yuanlang."

Mrs. He smiled, "A Nian is also born with this. That child is born with this stubbornness. I didn't teach you, I barely recognize a few words."

Old Mrs. Hu said, "This child will definitely be extraordinary in the future."

"Hey, I just hope that his spring exam will go smoothly." Old Madam He did not forget to say to He Luo's mother Sun, "Aluo Mom, do you have red cloth at home? If so, you can take a piece of red material for me. I will take it to the imperial capital and offer it to the gods for a few days. Jie Shi made clothes for Aluo, and it was strong."

Sun quickly said, "Yes! Yes! I'm thinking about troubleing my aunt." Even if there isn't, I have to buy it immediately! As long as my son can win, what's wrong with wearing red clothes every day? Sun decided that although his family can't go to the imperial capital, next year, when the spring exam is coming, the family will drink the first porridge and eat osmanthus cake to make their son far away in the imperial capital more effort.

Everyone was talking about the autumn examination and spring examinations lively, as if the father-in-law and son-in-law would definitely be on the list next year. When the banquet started, the He family’s mattress was already quite particular. As the Double Ninth Festival approached, I also bought a lot of crabs to eat, accompanied by chrysanthemum wine, which was extremely joyful.

After three days of flowing water, many relatives and clan members came to help. Afterwards, Mrs. He thought it was fortunate that she only had three days of arrangement, otherwise she would be afraid of bankruptcy.

The relatives and tribesmen all dispersed, and Mrs. He leaned against the couch and said, "I couldn't eat such a delicious table during the Chinese New Year before, so how could I think I would be today? But today is so good, and I feel that there are better days in the future."

Shen smiled, "Yes, if their father-in-law and son-in-law are going well next year, my mother will have some imperial clothes to wear in the future."

Mrs. He laughed, "I dare not think about it."

He Zijin followed and coaxed the old lady to be happy and said with a smile, "What's there to think about? You dare not think about it, I dare to think about it."

Old Madam He was happy when he looked at his girl's movies. He didn't blame him for thinking about it. Seeing that this girl was really lucky, he asked He Zijin, "What's the clothes of an imperial decree? Have you seen them? Just think about it." He felt that his girl was a knowledgeable person, so Old Madam He couldn't help asking.

He Zijin said, "This imperial edict is different from an imperial edict. The first-grade second-grade edict is called a lady, the third-grade edict is called a lady, the fourth-grade edict is called a gentleman, the fifth-grade edict is pleasant, the sixth-grade edict is at peace, and the seventh-grade edict is also stipulated. The difference is very big. For example, the first-grade lady must use a golden crown, five pearls and zodiac, two pearls and peony starting, three pearls and peony half-open, twenty-four green clouds, one eight green peony leaves, one pair of green mouth circles, eight gold treasure flowers, two golden zodiacs, and two pearls holding two pearls. By the seventh-grade edict, there is only a fraction of it."

"So much difference."

"Isn't that true?"

He Gong'a's son-in-law and son-in-law finished seeing off the guests. When he returned to the room, he heard that the women at home were discussing the imperial edict. The son-in-law and son-in-law suddenly felt: You can go to the emperor to study hard and prepare for the exam~
