It was only at this time that the prefects and county magistrates realized that the imperial envoy had not left.
By the time they wanted to find someone to plead for mercy, the imperial envoy had already left.
All the people in the north were very happy when they learned about the high-yield grain varieties.

In the past, they envied those places that could grow high-yield rice, but they didn’t expect that they could now also grow high-yield wheat and corn.
After the imperial envoy returned to the capital, he went into the palace and handed the list to Xuan Feiran: "All the emperor's lists are here."
Xuan Feiran looked at the name on the list with a slightly cold look in his eyes: "Very good, you've worked hard, go back and rest first."
"I am not tired."
Xuan Feiran wrote a letter to Su Yu.
Su Yu frowned slightly after receiving the letter. She took advantage of Wang Jingyu and the others being at home to call them over and said, "Su Yu, do you have something to talk to us about?"
"Yes, there is something. My brother sent me a message to tell you that if you pass the palace examination this year, you will be sent directly to the north. There are several prefects and some county magistrates there who are ungrateful and he plans to replace them. The people selected in this palace examination are the best choices. You may be directly appointed as prefects, and you will be the ones to distribute the grain."
Wang Jingyu and the others looked at Su Yu in surprise. They didn't expect that things had come to this point.
"We know."
"Make good preparations. You will be leaving for the capital next month. If you and Qin Lang want to get married before taking office, I will ask my brother to give you some time. But if you have this idea, it's best to start choosing a date now."
Qin Lang frowned. He knew very well that once he went to the north, he and Susan would not be able to see each other for a long time, and he didn't know how long it would take for him to come back.
Of course it would be best if you could get married first and then leave.
"Okay, I'll discuss this with my parents when I get back."
"Um."
Wang Jingyu had a similar idea to Qin Lang. He also hoped to take his wife with him to take up the post after getting married, rather than being alone and unable to come back for a long time.
"Okay then, tell me when you decide, especially Qin Lang. I will tell my uncle after you make your decision."
"good."
After Qin Lang returned, he discussed the matter with his family. After listening to him, Qin Lang's parents immediately decided to go to the capital with their son. They would make the decision while the child would go to take the exam.
Qin Lang came to tell Su Yu and Su Xi about this the next day. Su Xi nodded in agreement: "In that case, I will go back to the capital."
"Grandpa, I'll have someone take you back."
"good."
Qin Lang had made his decision, and Wang Jingyu had also made his decision to get married before he went to Beijing for the exam.
When Yu Qingfeng and his wife went to tell Wen Sitong's parents about this, they were somewhat reluctant, after all, they still wanted to keep their daughter for two years.
But after hearing that Wang Jingyu would go directly to the north to take up a post if he passed the exam this year, which was a foregone conclusion, he didn't care about keeping the child for two more years and discussed the wedding date with Yu Qingfeng.
Since the two children got engaged, they have made all the necessary preparations and are not worried about being too late.
It is now August 17th. After discussion, the two families decided to get married on September 8th, which leaves more than half a month to prepare.
After deciding the date, Yu Qingfeng and his family came the next day to deliver the betrothal gifts.
Although it is not as good as what Su Yu gave to Wang Jinhe, it is also the best in the entire Fu'an County.
The gift money alone was 99,900 taels of silver.
This gift money shocked all the people who came to watch. The daughter's family was extremely jealous of the Wen family, and some even wanted to accept the betrothal gift on behalf of the Wen family.

Although Wen Sitong's parents were not greedy for money, they were naturally happy to see their in-laws giving them face in this way.
He welcomed the person in with a smile.
Wang Jinhe and Su Yu brought a few children to join in the fun and see how the Wen family was doing.
Wen Sitong has an older brother and a younger brother. The older brother is married, and the younger brother is still studying in the academy and is thirteen years old this year.
I admire Wang Jingyu very much.
Before dinner, Wang Jinhe saw that the children were making a lot of noise, so he took them to play in the small garden.
"Sister, don't be so foolish as to let your parents-in-law give all the money to your sister-in-law. You have 100,000 taels of silver."
"That's the betrothal gift for Tongtong. It's okay to give it to her."
"Why are you so stupid? Leave this money at home so that you and your brother-in-law can make better plans. You can also help the family a little bit when the time comes."
How could Wen Sitong's sister-in-law not understand what was going on after hearing this
This is because he saw that his sister-in-law's betrothal gift was too much and he wanted to take it for himself.
Sister Wen sneered and said, "How shameless of you to scheme against your own relatives."
"How can you talk like that? Don't forget that you are a member of our family."
"They told me at that time that a daughter who is married off is like water spilled. Do you want me to talk about the dowry they gave me back then? I have paid back all the money I should have paid back over the years, and I will not give anything that I shouldn't have given." After saying that, she left.
Wang Jinhe raised her eyebrows slightly. She thought her future sister-in-law would agree, but unexpectedly she gave her an unexpected surprise.
It seems that the Wen family is also very good.
After dinner, Wen Dasao’s sister’s eyes lit up when she saw the bracelets on the two children’s hands, and she kept moving closer to the two children after dinner.
"They are so cute, can I hug them?"
"No." Wang Jinhe said expressionlessly when the other party was expecting.
The other party's face froze: "Why

"From just now on, your eyes have been on my son and daughter's hands. When you said they were cute and wanted to hug them, your eyes were still on their hands. I wonder why?" Wang Jinhe looked at the other person and smiled gently.
How could Sister Wen not know her sister's character? She was just like her mother, with a shallow mind.
"I'm sorry, County Lady. This is because my stepsister is not very smart. Please don't be offended."
"Then Sister Wen, when you go back to your parents' home, you must tell your father and stepmother. Since you are sick, don't let him out. It will be bad if it offends others, don't you think?" Wang Jinhe smiled gently but spoke with a sharp tone.
She heard that her sister-in-law had a bad relationship with her natal family, so she was naturally happy that her stepmother and stepsister were embarrassed in front of the county lord.
"Don't worry, I will tell them later, but you should not let anyone take the two children."
Wang Jinhe saw that Sister Wen was very interested in her, and she never thought of letting her stepsister hold her: "It's natural."
Sister Wen dragged and pushed the man away. When they reached a corner, Sister Wen's sister raised her hand and tried to hit Sister Wen, but Sister Wen grabbed her backhand and said, "You want to take the bracelet of someone else's child for yourself? They are the children of the county lady. Are you looking for death?"
