Song Tuanyuan nodded, "Then let me prepare. Mr. Cheng will go to the small courtyard next to Ji's house tonight!" Song Tuanyuan said.
King Cheng nodded.
King Cheng left with Zhang Captou. After a while, the mayor of the town came to the door and said many congratulations.
"It would be a great honor to have a Jieyuan in our town! A deer-minging banquet will be held in the Yamen tonight, and all the people will be invited to attend. Mr. Jieyuan must be here!" Mr. Town Mansion
said.
The Luming Banquet is a banquet held by local officials to entertain newly promoted candidates. It happened that there were three candidates in the Song family at this moment.
Song Fuxin thought for a moment and glanced at Song Tuanyuan.
Song Tuanyuan said: "You can go ahead!"
Song Fuxin agreed and agreed to go there with Qiu Yucheng and Lu Zhaoen.
The master of the town left with satisfaction.
"Good boy, I know you are not simple!" Qiu Yucheng stepped forward and slapped Song Fuxin on the shoulder.
Song Fujin smiled proudly, and the gloomy atmosphere of the past few days was instantly gone.
Lu Zhaoen smiled and stepped forward to say congratulations, but his smile was a little forced.
Song Tuanyuan looked at it, remembering that in his previous life, it might have been Lu Zhaoen who obtained this solution. In this life, some things have changed.
But will Lu Zhaoen become Song Fuxin's mortal enemy in the future?
"Mom, let's go clean up and prepare for tomorrow's banquet!" Song Fuxin said.
Song Tuanyuan immediately said: "I will go to the town with you to buy some clothes today. Just stay in the town and go directly to the banquet tomorrow!"
In this countryside, if someone comes, the dogs in the village will bark non-stop. This is why Song Tuanyuan did not let King Cheng come to the countryside.
Now that Song Fujin and the three of them were going to attend the Luming Banquet, she happened to take them to the town to stay first.
Song Fuxin had no choice but to comply.
At noon, the four of them arrived in the town.
Song Tuanyuan did not let the three of them live in the house, but went directly to the largest restaurant in the town. He didn't know what he said to the shopkeeper. The shopkeeper actually sent someone to bring out two tables and prepared calligraphy.
.
"This..." Song Fuxin and the others looked at Song Tuanyuan in confusion.
"One night's accommodation and food for the three of you is not a small amount. I told the shopkeeper that each of you can write a calligraphy painting to pay for your food and accommodation!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Fujin's face was full of black lines.
Lu Zhaoen couldn't help but smile and said: "Doctor Song, you have a good business record!"
"While the three of you have just received the calligraphy works and they are still warm, write something quickly, otherwise the streets will be full of your calligraphy works and it will not be rare!"
Song Fujin and the other three were stunned. Why did they write calligraphy all over the street?
Under Song Tuanyuan's pressure, the three had no choice but to start writing calligraphy.
It was initially agreed that each person would exchange a painting for food and accommodation in a restaurant, but as soon as the stall was set up, passers-by heard that there were currently three Juren masters, including the first named Jie Yuan, who was writing calligraphy on the street. This was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
Wherever he was willing to let him go, there was a long queue of people who came forward to ask for calligraphy treasures.
Song Tuanyuan seemed to have been prepared for it. She moved a small stool at the door to collect money. This was a hugely profitable business. A piece of paper was worth one or two silver dollars. This was much more money than she made selling medicine!
"Okay, okay!" Finally in the evening, Song Tuanyuan saw that the three of them were tired and finally refused to accept the money from the people who asked for calligraphy treasures. "The calligraphy treasures of the three masters of Juren have been distributed here. Everyone is waiting for the three of them."
Please come back and beg me when I am the second best candidate in high school and I will be the best candidate for the crown prince!"
Everyone was stunned. Now the people who asked for calligraphy treasures were lining up from the door to the street. How could they stop writing if they didn’t want to write? Those who had asked for calligraphy treasures before heard that the three candidates who wanted to get the number one scholar, Tan Hwa Lang, became more and more aware.
With the precious calligraphy treasure in my arms, I happily carried it home.
After closing the stall, Song Tuanyuan began to count the money. The three of them wrote for one hundred taels of silver all afternoon. It was really good business.
After Song Tuan finished counting, he each took out ten taels of silver and gave them to the three of them.
"This is your hard-earned money!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Qiu Yucheng and Lu Zhaoen were stunned.
In fact, they also knew that most of the calligraphy treasures those people sought were from Song Fuxin. After all, he was the one who knew Yuan!
"You don't need so much..." Lu Zhaoen said in a low voice.
"From today on, you are good brothers, sharing the blessings and the hardships!" Song Tuanyuan thought for a while and looked at the three of them, "How about you three become sworn brothers?"
Two more brothers are better than one enemy and one brother-in-law! For Song Fuxin, Song Tuanyuan also risked his life. Two more sons would be great. If you have more debts, you don’t have to worry about it. If you have too many lice, you don’t need to itch!
Song Fuxin, Qiu Yucheng, and Lu Zhaoen looked at each other and nodded at the end.
With Song Tuanyuan's help, the three of them lit three sticks of incense, swore and kowtowed together, and agreed not to be born in the same year, same month, and same day, but to die in the same year, same month, and same day!
"Okay, okay!" Song Tuanyuan was so happy that she opened her mouth from ear to ear and said sincerely, "In the future, whether the three of you have good luck or go astray, I hope you can remember today's sworn relationship and don't
Jealousy, don’t complain, help each other!”
Lu Zhaoen was stunned, raised his eyes, and looked into Song Tuanyuan's eyes.
He felt as if Song Tuanyuan had seen through his heart.
Song Fuxin won the first place, Jie Yuan, he was indeed a little jealous!
He thought that his article was invincible this time, so why was he only ranked second?
Moreover, he asked Song Fujin after the exam, and he felt that Song Fujin's article had an average entry point and was not as exciting as his at all!
Song Tuanyuan's words made his heart sink. He thought about it and felt relieved.
Yes, since they are good brothers, it will be the same for whoever gets admitted to Jieyuan!
Lu Zhaoen raised his eyes and stretched out his hand: "We have agreed, good brothers will advance and retreat together!"
Song Fujin nodded and stretched out his hand.
Qiu Yucheng did his part, and the three of them hugged each other and laughed.
Song Tuanyuan looked at the three people and couldn't help but sigh, hoping that they would really remember today's situation in the future.
"Mom, please keep this money for me. I'll keep it for going to Tiancheng to take the exam!" Song Fuxin said, returning the money to Song Tuanyuan.
Song Fuxin was going to take the No. 1 exam before. When he saw Song Tuanyuan, he hesitated, thinking it must be a money problem. Now that he had so much money, he should be able to go!
Song Tuanyuan thought for a while and said: "First take out two taels of silver and redeem the clothes you like!"
Song Fuxin was stunned.
"Now that you are Jieyuan, you should dress more decently!" Song Tuanyuan said.
Song Fuxin smiled and said: "Mom, there are better clothes in the clothes shop!"
Song Tuanyuan smiled: "Then go buy a new one, whatever you want!"
Song Fuxin nodded and left the restaurant with his two good brothers to buy clothes.
Song Tuanyuan looked at the three people's backs and suddenly slapped his thigh: "Oh, I forgot to ask them to write ten more paintings each and wait for the price to increase!"
In the previous life, Qiu Yucheng was the eldest son of the protector of the country, and Lu Zhaoen was the second in the list. His calligraphy treasures are valuable!
It was getting late, and Song Tuanyuan returned to the house to prepare for the operation on King Cheng that night, but saw Ji Changan's carriage at the door.
