"Yes, yes, yes, please sit down and have some tea first." The old lady hurriedly poured them tea.
Su Yichen shook his head happily: "It's okay, I have my sister's Qi-boosting pills, I'm not tired at all."
Su Yaohui took a sip of water and nodded in agreement: "Yes, this time is much easier than before. In the past, when I came out of the examination room, I was almost paralyzed, but this time, I came out, still very energetic."
He even suspected that he didn't perform well because he was in poor health and too tired.
"That's great. Not only do we have students, we also have scholars." Su Huaian sighed naively.
"Yes, that's great." Mrs. Liu also looked happy.
Erni was also very happy: "Uncle and brother are so great, brother, you have to work hard too."
Su Yihe blushed and scratched his head awkwardly: "How can I compare with my uncle and my brother?"
"I'll just learn a few words and arithmetic, and then I'll take care of our shop and not let Qiao'er get too tired."
Su Qiao patted him on the shoulder and encouraged him, "Brother, don't feel pressured. Just go for the exam with confidence. If you fail, we can do business in the future."
"Actually, there's nothing wrong with doing business. Maybe I can become an imperial merchant in the future."
With Feng Han around, and with her various business plans, becoming a royal merchant should not be a problem.
Su Yihe nodded vigorously: "Well, second brother will listen to you."
He didn't dare to think about becoming an imperial merchant, but he could still consider opening a few more shops to make his family live a better life.
"That's fine." There are already two promising children in the family, and the old man's wish in this life has been fulfilled, so he won't force it anymore.
Su Qiao reminded the crowd who were still happy and didn't know what to do: "Are you going to announce the good news?"
Su Yaohui reacted and said quickly: "Yes, someone will come to announce the good news soon, so we need to prepare some reward money."
As soon as he finished speaking, firecrackers were heard outside. Everyone got up and started to get busy.
Erni quickly ran back to the house and took out two small purses. The old lady took out four taels of silver, stuffed two taels into one of the purses, and then took out a large bag of candy and stuffed it into the eldest daughter-in-law's hand.
"Give the villagers some candy later. Don't be stingy. This time you have to fight for your husband and son."
At this time, Zhou Lihua was still immersed in the excitement of becoming an official's wife, so why would she care about this little candy
"Don't worry, mom. I will be generous this time."
As she spoke, she grinned foolishly again.
Su Qiao found it funny looking at her silly look.
When the Su family went out, not only did the government office come to announce the good news, but people from the village also gathered around.
"Congratulations!"
"Two high school students in one course, what a great joy!"
"Congratulations." Su Yaohui hurried over and politely received the two yamen runners who came to announce the good news.
The old man also walked over cheerfully: "Thank you for the trip, please come in and have a cup of tea and a simple meal."
The yamen runner waved his hands quickly: "No, no, old man, we still have to go to Shahe Village. There is another person over there who wants to report the news. He is also from the same class and two high schools."
"What a coincidence?" The old man was stunned and looked at his son.
Su Yaohui nodded: "It should be."
Although they didn't meet anyone from the Zhou family there, it was normal not to meet anyone given so many people for reference.
Su Qiao's heart moved: "Could it be the old Zhou family at the east end of the village?"
I actually forgot that my fourth uncle and third cousin were also attending private school and might have taken the exam as well.
Su Qiao was a little annoyed. How could he forget such a big thing
I was so busy during this period that I only remembered to bring them paper, pen and ink, and I actually forgot about such a big thing.
