Chapter 248 Wen Tongsheng
Seeing that the other party insisted, Li Xin didn't know what to say. He just noticed the other party's dry lips, said "I'll go make some tea", turned around and went into the house.
Luo Meihua and her children were staying in the front yard. When she saw Li Xin coming in, she held Sanhua and asked hurriedly, "Are your uncle and aunt back? Did you see the person outside?"
"Well, uncle and aunt are on their way back. The person outside, aunt, is the one my uncle and I found in the county to deliver the letter to our home." Li Xin, who usually doesn't like to laugh, also smiled happily at this time.
Luo Meihua already had some guesses in her mind, and when she heard Li Xin say this, her curiosity burned, "Does this mean that your uncle passed the exam?"
"Aunt, I didn't ask. I'll go boil some water." Li Xin smiled back at her and was about to go to the kitchen.
Luo Meihua looked at the running figure and shouted, "Daxin, I just boiled the water in the pot, just pour it into the teapot."
"I know, Auntie."
Li Xin went out with the bowl in his hand. Just as the errand boy took two sips, he saw a group of people walking over from the other side of the hill.
The runner recognized Wen Wuyan in the crowd at a glance, turned around, handed the bowl to Li Xinren, and ran over there, shouting, "Congratulations, Wen Shulang, you passed, you passed the exam and became a Tongsheng."
When Wen Wuyan and the others arrived, everyone was immediately excited. "Wuyan, you passed the exam!"
"Brother Wuyan, are you going to be a student in the future? When will you take the imperial examination? Are you going to be a high-ranking official?"
"Oh, this is such a happy event, congratulations!
Everyone congratulated him joyfully, and then happily surrounded him and asked, "When did the news come out? What place did you get in the exam?"
The errand boy was also happy to see the real boss, and hurriedly began to talk about what happened today, "The results were announced at the government office gate this morning. There were crowds of people inside and outside, and many people were trying to see it. I was able to squeeze in because I was thin. I was ranked seventh among the Wenshu Langzhong students."
After running around for a while, I finally got to the point.
"Qingqing!" It was not until this moment that Wen Wuyan was sure that he had passed the exam.
He didn't care whether he could get first place in the exam, just knowing that he had passed the exam and became a student had taken the first step.
Wen Wuyan originally wanted to hug Qingqing to vent his excitement, but seeing so many people present, he thought Qingqing would be shy, so he didn't make the move to hug her.
He changed to holding Gu Qingqing's hand tightly with excitement, with her eyes full of her, and whispered, "Qingqing, we are one step closer to our goal."
Gu Qingqing naturally understood what he meant and gave him a look that said, "I'm happy for you, too."
"Dad... Dad, you passed the exam, you are awesome." Dahua's face was flushed with excitement. The excitement and excitement seemed to be in the air at this moment. Daxin was also infected and his heartbeat accelerated. "Uncle, congratulations!"
Luo Meihua and Erhua, who were at home, heard the noise outside and came out of the house. Erhua was especially happy and danced with joy, laughing from ear to ear. Her whole body was filled with joy. "Dad, you are so awesome. I am so happy!"
Erhua screamed and rushed towards her parents.
Well, I can’t hug Qingqing, but I can always hug the child. Wen Wuyan thought so and picked up Erhua who was rushing towards him and gave her a kiss.
Everybody was very happy for him, but they were uneducated and couldn't say anything fancy words of blessing like "top three in a row", "win the first prize in the imperial examination", "Kui Xing points to the stars and takes the first place".
Although it is said simply, it is the most sincere blessing from the bottom of my heart.
"Hahaha, okay, Brother Wuyan passed the exam, I have to go tell Brother Dong!" Zhao Bei yelled and prepared to run.
"Hey, who? Who grabbed my collar?" Zhao Bei didn't run away. At this time, Zhao Feng grabbed his collar from behind and wouldn't let go.
"Brother Feng, let me go. Why are you pulling my clothes?" Zhao Bei struggled.
Then Zhao gave him a look, and he saw Old Yang, with a somewhat lonely back, walking into Wuyan's house alone with his arms behind his back.
Zhao Bei was not the only one who noticed this change. Wen Wuyan and Gu Qingqing also noticed it. The two looked at each other, and Wen Wuyan put down the Erhua Ban and followed.
Gu Qingqing was the only one left and she quietly said to everyone, "Let Wuyan go first." Only after she saw that everyone had successfully received the signal did she start to entertain people loudly.
When they invited people to their house for dinner before, no one wanted to come, and Gu Qingqing didn't want to force them.
This time it was different. She acted as if she would be angry if you didn't come. She first said to Zhao Feng and Zhao Bei, "Don't say anything. Just go to my house and we'll start cooking. I can't make it by myself."
Similarly, those who were originally hesitant now knew that Wuyan had passed the examination and became a student, so they naturally didn’t want to miss this happy event, and they all said they would go back and pack up and come over.
"Daxin, your Dong uncle must have gone to work and hasn't come back yet. Remember to call your Dong uncle later." Gu Qingqing continued to instruct.
"I understand, Auntie. Shall I go dig some bamboo shoots now?" Li Xin asked excitedly.
"Go, go quickly." Seeing Li Xin going home to get something, Gu Qingqing was in a good mood and shouted, "Don't waste our bamboo shoots. We still hope that the rest will grow into bamboos for use."
"I understand, aunt." Li Xin's voice came from the yard.
Gu Qingqing then said to the errand boy, "My dear brother, you have worked hard on the journey. Come home and have a seat. I will go get the remaining copper coins for you."
The errand boy hurriedly bowed to Gu Qingqing and said, "Thank you for taking the money. I can go back now. If I walk faster, I can still get to the town today."
Gu Qingqing didn't even need to look at the sun, knowing that he would not be able to make it back to the county today, so she asked, "Brother, are you going to stay in town today?"
The errand boy smiled and waved his hand at her, "No, we only earn our hard-earned money, so how can we afford to stay overnight? On the way here, I agreed with two other companions to meet in town and rush back to the county together."
When Gu Qingqing heard that the other party had to go back to the county, she didn't dare to delay for a moment. She just patted Luo Meihua's arm in a hurry and ran away.
She went home and gave the remaining copper coins to the other party, and added five more cents as a bonus. She also gave the other party two pancakes that she had baked at home yesterday.
"Now is not the right time, and there is nothing hot. Don't be disgusted. You can have something to eat on the way."
The errand boy was already very excited when he saw the extra five coins. Now that he saw the host gave him two more thick cakes, he kept thanking him.
When she was the only one left at the gate of the courtyard, Gu Qingqing suddenly felt a little empty. She even turned around in a daze. She always felt that something was missing, but she didn't know what it was.
But she was really a little flustered now, and Old Yang looked like he was worried about something.
A lot of people would be coming to my house for dinner soon, so I didn’t have time to think about it and just turned around and went home in a hurry.
