Xiao Chenrui wears a golden flower black gauze hat and a red robe, holding a hand-picked holy edict, feet straddling a golden saddle and a red-maned horse, calling forward and embracing back, leading the way, with extraordinary style.

Followed by the hand-picked second place and Tanhua, they went from the Golden Palace to the palace gate, passing through Taihe Gate, Meridian Gate, Duanmen, Chengtian Gate, and finally arrived at the gate of the palace.

There were crowds of people watching the fun along the way, and there were crowds of people everywhere. The teahouses and restaurants on both sides, good locations were reserved by the dignitaries and nobles of the various prefectures. Lang style.

Xiao Chenrui won the champion at a young age, and for a while became the best candidate for the noble daughters of the capital to choose their husbands.

After the young ladies of each family saw the champion of the first prize, some noble ladies covered their mouths and screamed, some had a heart like a deer, some blushed, and some were dumbfounded. , all kinds of purses and fragrant flowers were thrown at Xiao Chenrui.

The second place in the list is a middle-aged uncle in his thirties. This is the third time he has participated in the conference. He finally got his wish, and the third man behind it is Zhou Zheng, who is not too old. Many purses and fragrant flowers fell on him.

After walking around the street, when Xiao Chenrui returned to Xiao Mansion, there were still people and neighbors gathered in front of the Xiao Mansion, and then there was another compliment.

The old lady of the Ji family next door smiled and looked at the old lady Xiao, who was standing at the gate of the mansion to welcome her grandson: "Before, I learned about Yuan, you said that Chen Rui is going to prepare for the palace exam, and he is not going to hold a banquet for the time being. This time, he is the champion of high school, so he can't pay it back. Is there a reason?"

Mrs. Xiao heard this: "How can you, Xiao's house will start a three-day running water banquet tomorrow, and the neighbors are welcome to come and have a fun."

Yun Yi discussed this matter with the Xiao family before. Even if he can't reach the rank of jinshi, as long as he is a jinshi or a jinshi, it is a matter of honoring the lintel of Xiao's family, and he should be thankful for God's grace, so old man Xiao What people say is quite plausible.

Xiao Chenrui and Daoxi's people chatted for a while before entering the mansion.

The wedding candy and copper plates were prepared before. As for the cakes added later, Mrs. Xiao asked the mansion to prepare it in the morning, and it came in handy at this time.

Soon Steward Zhao ordered the servants in the house to get busy, informing Zhuangzi to deliver enough ingredients to the house tomorrow morning, and to send people out to purchase the missing items in advance.

Now that there is no shortage of money in the house, and Mrs. Xiao is still obsessed with being decent, this is the most glamorous thing the Xiao family has done in a hundred years.

Juxiangyuan's cook, on the day of the Flowing Water Banquet, arrived at Xiao's house before dawn to start preparations.

The Xiao mansion was full of joy. The dignitaries and noble families in the capital sent people to extend their olive branches. Coupled with the existence of the general mansion, it can be said that on the first day of the Flowing Water Banquet, there was a lot of traffic and people in front of the gate of Xiao mansion.

Fortunately, Xiao Chenrui sent servants to maintain order. While congratulating, many people revealed that they wanted to marry.

Mrs. Xiao almost floated away after being complimented, but fortunately there was Yunyi's euphemistic greeting, so she didn't get dizzy.

The female family members were received by the old lady of the Xiao family and Yun Yi, and the male guests were received by Jing Rui and Xiao Chenrui. After this day, their faces would freeze with laughter.

When the guests were finally sent away, several people took the gift account sorted out by the housekeeper and looked at it.

Yun Yi smiled after seeing it: "This is really a good way to make money. If you want to be rich, you should be promoted to a banquet and receive gifts."

Looking at the little woman's expression, Jing Rui couldn't help laughing. The congratulatory gifts sent by the people who came to congratulate today were indeed unusual. The treasury of Xiao's mansion suddenly filled up, which was better than that of Xiao's mansion before exile.

In the next two days, the identities of those who came to congratulate were not as valuable as the first day. Most of them were from wealthy families, officials of low rank, and only the running water seats at the street corner were left in three days, and they were all people from slums. and beggars everywhere.

After the three-day running water banquet, the Xiao mansion returned to calm, and Mrs. Xiao once again brought up the matter of moving the grave for Xiao Huaiyuan.

Xiao Chenrui first reported to the Hanlin Academy, and then explained the situation to the Academy and asked for leave.
