In the book, she became the daughter of a vicious villain who died early

That night, the students named He and Wu came to say goodbye to Lin Anru.

The money they borrowed was not enough for them to continue staying in the inn.

Lin Anru perked up, reminded the two of them about safety issues, and then lay down to rest.

He has no plans to go back to Yamada Village for the time being.

It was a rare opportunity for him to come to the provincial capital, so he wanted to study hard here, buy some books that were not available in the county, and wait for the test results to come out before returning home.

He took out all the purses he had, counted the amounts on them, and sighed helplessly.

When he lent money to students named He and Wu before the exam, they said that he didn't have much money left, but in fact he still had quite a lot.

He was afraid that his money would be stolen or robbed, so he said that the money he brought was stored in several places, and the bag of money he showed to the student surnamed He was just one of them.

However, after counting his purse, he found that he really didn't have much money.

At least this money is not enough to buy more books for myself. That is a luxury!

Lin Anru was lost in thought for a moment, then put the money he brought into different places. He heard a noise downstairs, and his mind moved.

During his last scientific expedition, he borrowed all his travel expenses and other things, including the entire Yamada Village.

He owed money to the entire village and the money he borrowed was barely enough to keep him going until the day he finished his exams.

As soon as he finished the exam that time, he rushed out of the city and returned home without staying in the provincial capital.

It was because he was young and strong at that time that he didn't collapse on the road. He also saved his current brother-in-law Chang Lin on his way home.

So he didn't know that so many students didn't go back directly after the exam.

The bustling crowd downstairs was even more lively than before the exam.

He quickly packed himself up and headed downstairs.

After a night's rest, the students who had finished their exams recovered some of their energy and began to gather in the lobby of the inn to discuss the content of the exams a few days ago.

Lin Anru did not join their discussion immediately. Instead, she asked her child to serve her food and then sat at the table and listened quietly.

Only when his stomach was about eight-tenths full did he naturally join the students' discussion.

Lin Anru did this for several days in a row and gained a lot from it.

The students discussed came from all over the city, with different levels of talent and learning, but they could all take the examination for the scholar, so at least they all had the qualification of being a student, which couldn't be much lower.

There is a minimum lower limit but no maximum upper limit. This level of academic exchange always makes people's eyes light up.

Not only that, the fact that the students did not rush back home immediately after the exam but stayed here shows that their family backgrounds are not too bad.

A good family background means they have resources. Lin Anru is attracted by the resources they bring.

With his deliberate efforts in the past few days, he got to know several good students and borrowed a lot of rare books from them.

So, he worked hard on establishing diplomatic relations during the day, and read and copied books by lamplight at night.

These days are more stressful than the days of exams.

However, my mental state is much better than during the exam. Apart from becoming increasingly thinner, there is no difference from my normal life.

The busy time passed quickly and soon the day of results announcement arrived.

Early in the morning, the students got up and waited anxiously.

Those who had servants sent their servants to wait at the place where the results were announced, while those who didn't have servants ran there by themselves.

Lin Anru was alone, but he didn't want to squeeze into the crowd because it was too dangerous.

The principle of family first reminds him at all times that his own safety should be put first.

“I got it, I got it, I got it, hahahaha!”

"Sir! Sir, you are on the list!"

……

As soon as the list was released, the crowd immediately rushed to the front, and soon, some were happy and some were sad.

Lin Anru clenched his fists and looked at the crowd in front of the list. At this moment, he wished he had a pair of clear eyes that could see the words on the red paper on the wall at a glance.

Unfortunately he didn't, and now he could only suppress his desire and wait for the crowd to disperse.

"Hey! I failed the exam again!"

"It doesn't matter. I didn't pass the exam either. Just try again next time!"

……

Those who passed the exam congratulated each other, and those who failed also huddled together for warmth.

“Hahaha… wuwuwu…”

Ah, this is another crazy one.

The people who were watching were no longer surprised, but they just loved watching the excitement. Every time the results were announced, they were happier than the students and gathered around to watch the fun.

After waiting for half an hour, Lin Anru thought that the crowd should be smaller.

Who knew that when the students had almost finished watching, the onlookers also came forward to watch the fun.

Most of them are illiterate, but that doesn't stop them from listening to those who can read, and they often respond in a particularly supportive manner.

Lin Anru thought about it, and finally took a step forward, but still did not get too close to the crowd.

"Brother Lin, congratulations!"

Suddenly, a man in student uniform ran up to Lin Anru and congratulated him. This man was one of the new friends he had made in the past few days.

Lin Anru's heart skipped a beat when he heard his words. He asked in disbelief, "Brother Li, what are you saying?"

When the student surnamed Li heard Lin Anru's question, he knew that he didn't know that he was on the list, so he happily told him:

"I saw your name on the list, ranking 16th. Congratulations!"

After getting the answer he wanted, Lin Anru still couldn't believe it. He didn't care how many people were on the list and ran straight to the bottom of the list to look at it.

When the people saw that he was wearing the clothes given by students, they made way for him. He saw his name without any hindrance and found that he was ranked 16th.

After confirming her name again and again, Lin Anru began to look at the entire list carefully.

The top ten were unsurprisingly all students with great reputations, and the top candidate was someone he was so familiar with that he was no longer familiar with him. It was Mr. Hong who bought his ointment recipe.

This surprised him. As a member of the same faction, Lin Anru had paid special attention to Master Hong. He was not very outstanding in the private school. In every test, he was usually ranked around tenth.

This ranking is okay in the county, but compared with the students in the entire provincial capital, it is simply incomparable.

This is considered a dark horse. I'm sure those who were betting on who would get the top spot would be surprised when they see who the real top spot is.

In addition, the student surnamed Li who had just informed him of the news was ranked 17th. No wonder he knew his ranking.

When she reached the end of the list, Lin Anru saw someone who looked surprisingly familiar.

The student Zhou whose leg was broken is the last one on the list.

Logically speaking, they should all be happy about being on the list, but Lin Anru thought that based on Mr. Zhou's personality and talent, he might not be happy, or even angry, as he was clearly vying for the top spot but ended up being the last.
