Wu Kang'an didn't have time to answer, because he was knocked out by this huge surprise.

The private room next to them was noisy.

"Who is this Wu Kang'an?"

"Yeah, why haven't I heard of such a person before."

"Didn't you hear? The other party is from Qinghuai County, which is not the same county as ours. It's normal that you haven't heard of it."

"Tch, I have sent someone to inquire after I came to Fucheng. There are no famous students in Qinghuai County like Wu Kang'an."

"Okay, okay, let's stop guessing, we will know who the other party is later, let's go and have a look."

As soon as these words came out, everyone quieted down, waiting patiently for Wu Kang'an's response, wanting to see which person in the private room would speak up.

But it was destined to disappoint them. Wu Kang'an was stunned for a while, and did not answer immediately. On the contrary, the waiter downstairs would sometimes send some things to the small courtyard where the Wu family and the others lived, so he knew Wu Kang'an. He also knew which private room Wu Kangan was in, so he took the person who announced the good news upstairs and entered Wu Kangan's private room.

Seeing the person who announced the good news came in, Wu Kang'an woke up.

"Congratulations to Wu Xiucai for winning No.10 in the government examination." The two announcers congratulated.

Wu Bai on the side hurriedly rewarded them with the money bag prepared in advance.

After the person who announced the good news left, Wu Kang'an shouted excitedly: "Father, Brother Bai, did you hear that? I won, hahahaha..."

Wu Kang'an laughed wildly, just in time to be heard by the people in the private room next door.

Wu Bai also reacted to this question. Now that he knew the grades, he wanted to return to the small courtyard early, pack up his things, and go home early. He didn't want Wu Kang'an to get too entangled with other scholars here, so as not to cause complications.

He hurriedly dragged Wu Kang'an downstairs and left the private room.

Father Wu saw that his two sons were about to leave, so he naturally followed them downstairs.

After the three of them returned to the small courtyard, Wu Kang'an explained his situation to Master Bing. The Master encouraged him and let him leave without seeming surprised.

For such an important matter as the results of the government examination, the Master naturally sent someone to help him keep an eye on it, so he knew that Wu Kang'an had been admitted as a scholar and ranked high, so he was surprised and surprised.

For the master, he is more optimistic about the other two students this time, but this time the ranking of the two students is behind Wu Kang'an. Although there is not much difference, the master is also extremely shocked, of course, shocked It was joy after that, after all, Wu Kang'an was also his student.

The masters brought a total of thirteen students to participate in the government examination this time, but only four were selected, and one of them was admitted with the rear of the car hanging.

In fact, according to the master's expectation in advance, two people can be admitted, and they are already very satisfied, but this time their college can admit four people, and the masters woke up laughing in their sleep.

In the afternoon, most of the people in the yard took advantage of this time to buy what they wanted to buy in Fucheng, visited the attractions they wanted to visit, and tasted the delicacies they wanted to eat, and then they returned to the yard satisfied Pack your luggage.

Early the next morning, they returned the keys to the inn, settled the rest of the rent, and went home in their respective carriages.

The reason why they didn't continue to stay in Fucheng is that the consumption of Fucheng is too high for them. If they stay here for one more day, they will have to pay one more day's rent. Anyway, now that the results of the government examination have come out, they don't have to. The reason for staying there, so everyone went home together, so that there are more people and safer.

Four days later, everyone returned to Nanping Town smoothly.

But at this time it was getting late, and there were not many people walking around in the town. Every household had already started preparing dinner. In order to get home early, after all, the carriage was much faster than people walking, so Father Wu didn't immediately go to the carriage shop to return it. The carriage, he came directly to Xingfeng Village with the carriage.

In the courtyard of the Wu family, everyone had already had dinner and was enjoying the cool air in the courtyard. By the way, they were counting the time, wondering when Wu Bai and the others would come back.

"Oh, I don't know if the second child will be admitted as a scholar this time." Wu Fulang sighed.

"Mother and father, don't worry, my husband will definitely pass the exam." Wu Er Fulang said anxiously, although he has returned to his mother's house, found the temple, and worshiped the Bodhisattva, but no one can say for sure , just for comfort.

"Hey, I seem to have heard the sound of horseshoes?" The boss of the Wu family said with some uncertainty.

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Wu Fulang sat up from the cool chair, ran to the door quickly, and looked towards the entrance of the village.

"A carriage has entered the village, it must be your father and the others coming back." Wu Fulang said happily.

When everyone in the Wu family heard the words, they ran to the door one after another.

The speed of the carriage was very fast, and the village was relatively small, so the carriage had already arrived at the door of the house just as he was talking.

Seeing the dusty look of the three of them, Wu Fulang and the others held back no matter how many words they had in their hearts. They stepped forward to help remove all the things on the cart and put them away, and tied the horse to the left corner of the yard. and put a push of fodder there.

After Wu Bai and the three fetched water to wash their faces and tidied themselves up, the family sat in the lobby and talked.

Of course, the main thing is to talk about the results of Wu Kang'an's government examination this time.

Hearing Wu's father announce that Wu Kang'an was admitted as a scholar, the few people who stayed at home immediately became happy.

Wu Fulang asked first: "Really? Really? Kang An has been admitted as a scholar!"

"It's the real mother and father. The second brother is amazing. He still plans to continue to take the provincial examination next year, right the second brother?" Wu Bai looked at Wu Kang'an.

Hearing Wu Bai's question, Wu Kang Yushu'an choked for a moment, but after thinking about it carefully, he didn't think there was any problem. Since he had the opportunity, he must continue to take the entrance exam, so he nodded and said: "Yes. .”

Seeing that his second brother really nodded, Wu Bai secretly smiled in his heart, very good, everything is developing for the better.

At night, Wu's family was so happy that they didn't fall asleep all night. In the middle of the night, they could still hear the sound of conversations coming from every room. Except for Wu Bai's room, he was alone, and there was no one to talk to.

The next day, everyone in Xingfeng Village knew that Wu Kang'an had returned from the examination, and everyone came to Wu's house to call for friends.

After officially hearing that Village Chief Wu said that Wu Kang'an was admitted as a scholar, it caused an uproar.

Dong's mother in the crowd was shocked when she heard the news. When she saw Wu Kang'an was going to go to Fucheng to take the exam for a scholar, she went home and asked her son. Dong Heng told him that Wu Kang'an's knowledge would never He would be admitted as a scholar. He was very happy when he heard that, and what his son said was right.

Unexpectedly, after only one month, Wu Kang'an was admitted as a scholar. He hasn't been happy for a long time!

Mother Dong stood in the crowd angrily and said, "Village Chief, don't fool us just for your son's reputation. Everyone knows that it's not easy to be a scholar. What if the people above know about your son's reputation?" Pretending to be a scholar, it will be bad to pursue it when the time comes."

The crowd was suddenly as quiet as chickens.

"No way, the village head will definitely not lie to us with such a thing." Some people still believe in the character of the village head.

"But it's really not easy to be a scholar. Some people fail to pass the exam until they are old. How can Wu Kang'an pass the exam once." Someone also questioned.

Originally, Dong's mother was just jealous, so she casually let out such a sentence, just to add trouble to the village chief and his family. After all, who told his family to reject his son's marriage, so that his son can't go to the county to go to school smoothly.

At this moment, when he heard someone echoing his words, he suddenly felt that his nonsense just now might have been misunderstood. Thinking of this, Dong's mother immediately straightened her waist.

Everyone in the Wu family received the villagers with smiles on their faces. Everyone was very happy. Village head Wu even thought about having a banquet in the village to celebrate his second son and increase the relationship with the villagers by the way. After all, he is the village chief, he has a better relationship with the villagers, and it is easier to deal with the affairs of the village.

Who knew that not long after they were happy, a disharmonious element appeared and uttered nonsense there.

As a man, Wu's father naturally didn't want to have more disputes with Dong's mother, but he didn't want his son's reputation to be slandered by others, so he stood up and prepared to refute Dong's mother.

But before he could speak, he was preempted by Wu Bai.

"Uncle, I heard that your son is also a scholar, and he should be a man of noble temperament. Why haven't you been influenced by him? What he said is unbearable and smells extremely bad. My second brother's talent has won With the personal certification of the magistrate of the prefecture, and the scholar's documents, he is considered to be famous, and it is disrespectful to the magistrate for you to slander a scholar like this."

Wu Bai paused, and then said: "However, what you said just now, it's fine to talk about it in my family. After all, everyone in our family has been influenced by my second brother, so I won't care about you easily, but still I want to teach you to be good, so don’t just confide in front of others. Otherwise, it will fall into the ears of someone who cares. Homes will suffer disasters, and if it is more serious, the village will suffer disasters.”

At the beginning, when the villagers heard Wu Bai reprimanding Dong's mother, they were still watching the show. They didn't realize the seriousness of the matter until they heard Wu Bai's last sentence. After all, who would look good on a person who almost harmed his family.

Mother Dong naturally sensed everyone's dissatisfaction with him, and he quickly retorted: "You...you are just talking nonsense, you..."

Before Dong's mother could say anything more, Dong Heng, who was hiding behind a big tree outside the courtyard, came out. He walked through the crowd to Dong's mother, and dragged her back home.

Dong's mother was still shouting as she walked: "What are you pulling me for? I'm not wrong. The talent in their family must be fake. It's just a bluff at the moment."

After returning to Dong's house, Dong Heng saw that there was no one else around, so he said to Dong's mother with a sullen face: "That's enough, I don't ask you to help me, but can you not do me a disservice."

Dong's mother refused to accept: "Why am I doing you a disservice?"

"I told you clearly that I want to marry the village head's brother Bai. How could they marry me to the village head's family if you offended the village head's family like that today." Dong Heng said helplessly.

"Hmph, even if I didn't make a fuss, they might not marry Brother Bai to you." Thinking of this Dong's mother got angry.

Although he knew that what his parents said was very possible, Dong Heng still wanted to work hard. After all, only the village head's family in the village could support him to study in the county.

Dong's mother also knew her son's careful thinking. Although his tone was a bit harsh just now, he was still afraid that his son would complain about him if he really failed to make further progress. He rolled his eyes, remembered something, and comforted Dong Heng. "Heng'er, don't be too angry. We don't have to marry the village chief's brother. When my mother and father went to the street to sell some things to supplement their income, they heard that there was a foreigner in the town. Why don't you try to find a family for your daughter? I have already inquired about that family, and they are rich."
