Team leader Song had already led a group of government officials to Qingzhu Lane, beating gongs and drums. As he walked, he shouted: "Qingzhu Lane Xu House Gu Jin'an High School is the head of the current Academy of Science case, and even the elementary and middle schools have three yuan!"

When the people in Qingzhu Lane heard the news of good news, they were all excited. They opened the door and chased the government officials and asked: "Master, what are you talking about? There is someone in Qingzhu Lane who passed the Intermediate Court Examination for Chief of Cases and even got three yuan for primary and secondary school?!"

This is not true, is it?

If it were true, their Qingzhu Lane would be famous!

Team leader Song said: "Yes, someone from your Xu residence in Qingzhu Lane did pass the exam. Not only that, the young master of the Xu family who lives in Xu residence and two other children from He'an Prefecture all passed the exam. Including the court case leader, four people were hit."

After hearing this, the people in Qingzhu Lane were all shocked.

"I didn't expect that Xu's residence, which had been empty all year round, actually had several Tongsheng masters living there, and now they are even admitted to the scholar's examination."

With a plop, someone suddenly knelt down and shouted to the sky: "God, our Qingzhu Lane finally has a chance to succeed!"

After saying that, he started to cry.

"Mr. Ji, please stop crying. This is a great event for us in Qingzhu Lane. Get up quickly. Let's prepare generous gifts and go to Xu's house to congratulate you." Tang Damin understood Mr. Ji's mood very well. Mr. Ji passed the exam ten times. For several years, even a boy student failed to pass the exam. Many people laughed at him, and some said it was because the feng shui in Qingzhu Lane was not good. He would never be able to pass the exam as long as he lived here.

Mr. Ji once wanted to move, but the Ji family's ancestral home is here. Selling it would be unfilial. Mr. Ji could only study hard while guarding the ancestral home and live a poor life.

Mrs. Ji also wiped away her tears and said, "Master, the feng shui in our Qingzhu Lane is good. If you study hard, you will definitely be able to pass the exam in the future."

But Team Leader Song found it difficult because Mr. Ji's knowledge was average, and the court had been blocking the number of scholars. This year, only thirty scholars were admitted, which blocked many well-educated children.

I heard that the number of candidates for the next department's examination will be even smaller, maybe only twenty. If that were the case, it would be extremely difficult to become a scholar.

Mr. Ji was very happy. Hearing this, he stood up and said, "My lady is right. Come on, let's go home quickly. After bathing and changing clothes, we can take the generous gift to Xu's house to congratulate the head of the hospital."

When Mrs. Ji heard this, she smiled a little sadly. Life at home was not good, so it was not easy to prepare a generous gift. However, she knew Mr. Ji's heartache and did not disappoint him. She said with a smile: "Hey, I will definitely prepare a generous gift for my husband to send to Mr. Gu."

Dang, Dang, Dang!

The sound of the gong sounded again. Team leader Song and the others came to Xu's house and shouted towards the gate of Xu's house: "The Linhe government office came to announce the good news to Xu's house. The house was shrouded in stars. Come on!"

The people of the Xu family had been waiting for a long time. When they heard this, they opened the door. Mr. Xu personally led Xu Zhaoming and Gu Jinan out to greet Team Leader Song.

Team leader Song looked at him and said with a smile: "Old man, I have good news for you. Your house is blessed with great blessings. Xiao Sanyuan has been born. This is our second member of Jianghuai."

"Same joy." Mr. Xu was so happy that he personally stuffed Team Leader Song with five banknotes, which was a full five hundred taels, which shocked Team Leader Song.

"The old man is indeed a blessed person. On behalf of my brothers, I would like to thank you for being old."

Mr. Xu said: "No need to thank you, the old man is happy today!"

Then he took Gu Jinan's hand and said to Team Leader Song, "This is Chief Gu, our young San Yuan Lang from Jianghuai."

Mr. Xu was really happy today. Not only did Xu Zhaoming pass the exam, but also Gu Dexing, who had always been not optimistic about it. One was his grandson and the other was his future grandson-in-law. Mr. Xu was so excited that he almost had a stroke.

However, Qu Wenliang, Yao Youqian, Lu Bai, and He Jinsheng failed to win.

They had been sad about this for a long time. After hearing the news, they cried in the house. Lu Bai even fainted and said he was sorry for his family. Yao Youqian scolded him: "You're crying, what a big deal." Son, if you don’t pass this exam, you can take the exam again next time. As long as you don’t become a blood-sucking insect and suck the blood of the whole family to support yourself, you’ll be fine!”

Although Lu Bai did not pass the scholar examination, the Lu family's life became much better after Lu Bai started writing stories to make money. The second brother Lu also started talking about marriage. The Lu family already had hope. Even if Lu Bai failed the exam, the Lu family would not despair.

Lu Bai felt better after hearing this.

Qu Wenliang was also sad, but he was comforted by his uncle Qu Xiucai and did not collapse. The saddest thing was He Jinsheng. He was the hope of the whole family. He had studied hard for many years but failed. He cried harder than Lu Bai.

Fortunately, Shang Xiucai, Mr. Xu, and Gu Jinan all comforted him, saying that he was capable of learning, but he was frightened by the robber incident, and because Jinke reduced the number of scholars admitted, he failed to pass the exam.

He Jinsheng is still sad, but his past few years have not been in vain. Following Gu Jinan and Mr. Ouyang, he has learned to be open-minded and not to go into trouble, and he no longer cries.

When Team Leader Song saw Gu Jinan, he was shocked and sighed: "It is said that Mr. Gu has the beauty of a orchid and jade tree. It is true. He looks really handsome and extraordinary."

He also congratulated Gu Jin'an, the head of the case of the Intermediate Court, and Xiao Sanyuan, and gave him the scholar's documents and said: "Three days later, the magistrate and the scholar will hold a banquet in the government office to entertain all the scholars. Please be there on time. "

Jianghuai's second Xiao Sanyuan since the establishment of Da Chu was the guest of honor at this banquet.

Gu Jin'an smiled and said: "I understand. I'd like to ask Team Leader Song to inform the government and academic officials that I will attend the banquet in advance on the day of the banquet."

After saying that, he took out a red envelope and handed it to Team Leader Song: "Boss Leader Song and you guys have worked hard. Please accept it for your kindness."

Captain Song was not polite and accepted Gu Jinan's red envelope, and then he was invited into the house for a dinner by Mr. Xu.

Mr. Xu had long expected that Gu Jinan would be a scholar, so he went to Gaosheng Tower in advance to book a few tables to entertain the crowd who came to congratulate him.

Not long after, people from Qingzhu Lane came to congratulate him one after another, and they were all invited in for a banquet.

As the head of the hospital, Gu Jinan didn't stay long. He only drank a few glasses of wine with Team Leader Song and the others. After thanking the people in Qingzhu Lane, he made excuses and left.

Therefore, when Young Master Tong San brought his people to Xu's house, what he heard was that Gu Jin'an was not here, but that his family was worshiping their ancestors in Fucheng House.

Young Master Tong San was confused: "What do you keep talking about? Brother Gu is gone? Doesn't his family have a house in Linhe Mansion? Why would he go back to the house to worship his ancestors?"

Mr. Xu said: "There is a house, but our families are old friends, and he is a good friend of my grandson, so he lives in my house and studies together."

Third Young Master Tong frowned and asked again: "I see, then please tell me where Brother Gu's house is so we can go and congratulate him."

Mr. Xu is an old fox and very oily. When he heard this, he said: "His house is a bit far away from here. By the time you arrive, he will probably have returned from paying homage to his ancestors. You might as well not go."
