Officials in the capital will be notified in advance on the day when the list is released.
The ones who were notified were all the top three, and they were expected to win the first prize in the imperial examination and the second best.
"Grandmother, I'm sure my elder brother." Ye Jin took two steps forward and held the old lady's arm, "Ms. Jin will congratulate grandma and mother first."
"Rewards, there are many rewards!" Mrs. Ye also said happily, while asking people to open the door to welcome the official messenger who announced the good news, and at the same time asking people to prepare rewards.
The Ye family was so busy that no one cared about Aunt Mei.
Some were busy setting up the incense table, and some were busy congratulating Ye Shaoming.
Ye Jin passed by Aunt Mei and took a look at her, then went up to help the old lady again without stopping.
The officer announcing the good news wore an official robe and held a red silk gong in his hand, "Congratulations, old lady, the fourth son of the Ling family won the first place in the examination again, congratulations!"
Ye's smile froze instantly.
Ye Shaoming stayed where he was with his mouth open.
The old lady was also taken aback, but although it wasn't Ye Shaoming, it was also a descendant of the Ye family. She clasped her hands together excitedly, "Okay! The Ye family is promising in this generation, housekeeper, reward me! My lord, stay here Shall we have a wedding feast?"
Although the housekeeper respected him, he still handed the prepared bag full of money to the official who announced the good news.
The officer probably knew the number in the purse as soon as he weighed it, he smiled: "Thank you, old lady, but I still have the next family to leave."
If you get the first place in the general examination, no matter how bad you are in the palace examination, you will not be worse than one grade.
Basically, it is no different from the final ranking in the palace examination.
Therefore, the rankings of these official palace examinations and general examinations will be reported to each other.
"Wait a minute, my lord." Seeing that the official had finished talking about Ye Shaohua, Mrs. Ye stopped mentioning Ye Shaoming and was about to leave, so she couldn't help asking anxiously, "Is there anyone else? Have you forgotten?" what"
The officer was stunned for a moment, "Ma'am, is there someone here..."
"It's okay, my daughter-in-law is just happy and silly." The old lady took a look, and then said to the official: "My lord, you can go to the next house."
The officer almost nodded, and left with his hands clasped.
Ye Shi still looked at him unwillingly, and when he was about to leave in the end, the official didn't say anything.
The sisters-in-law around were all congratulating, and Yeh's face was pretending to be happy, but in fact his heart was twisted into a ball.
The old lady who had been serving her for many years could see that something was wrong on Ye Shi's face at a glance, and immediately supported her to help her breathe in her chest.
Seeing her like this, the people in the second room of the Ye family couldn't help but sneered.
She has long been unhappy with the people in the big house. When the family was separated, the Ye family was so indifferent. Later, Ye Shaoming was accepted as a disciple by Master Tanhua.
see now? A child from a concubine can do better than that "Wenquxing" in the exam!
Although the second room hated the eldest room, seeing Aunt Mei's son making Ye so angry made her feel relieved.
The old lady also frowned and glanced at Mrs. Ye, she also looked okay on weekdays, why is it abnormal now
"Aunt Mei, you really gave birth to a good son," she looked away, and then held Aunt Mei's hand condescendingly, with a chrysanthemum blooming on her face, "Hurry up, send someone to invite me." Master is back, this is the top priority today."
Aunt Mei was still being pushed and ridiculed just now.
Now when they heard that Ye Shaohua had won the top honor in Huiyuan, the faces of those sisters-in-law and those from the sidelines who had just been criticizing all of them suddenly changed their expressions.
One by one, they wished they could take out their hearts and flatter them.
Over the past few days, Aunt Mei has gotten used to the sneering attitudes of the people around her, especially her sister-in-law. It is not uncommon for the world to be cold and cold.
She just curled her lips at this sudden flattery.
But she didn't expect her daughter to be admitted to Huiyuan again
To be honest, she was really happy to get the first place in the exam again, but... Aunt Mei is even more fortunate that her daughter is not a man at all. What should I do if I give you a marriage
Aunt Mei was worried.
Ye Jin, who was still standing in the hall, was at a loss.
Chun'er pursed her lips, "Third Miss, Fourth Young Master won the first place..."
This is not Jieyuan from last time, but Huiyuan. The gap between the examination and the palace examination will not be very big, and the fourth young master is still so young. After the palace examination, the top three are almost a sure thing.
The third miss is very likely to be the champion sister.
If it is the younger sister of the number one scholar, there is almost no difference in terms of points from the eldest daughter who is born in the first place.
Chun'er could think of this, how could Ye Jin not think of it
Ye Jin's nails dug hard into her palms. Last time she had a chance to reconcile with Aunt Mei, but Ye Jin resented Aunt Mei for being timid and cowardly from the very beginning.
What she hated the most when she was a child was Ye Shaohua and Aunt Mei, they were exactly the same timid and cowardly people, and they knew suffering when they encountered anything.
Especially Ye Shaohua, what is wrong with a man to study female precepts with Aunt Mei
That's why Ye Jin was determined to stay away from these two people.
But who would have thought that... this fourth brother whom she was not optimistic about would come back? Not only did it come back, but it even won the top spot!
"Miss San, you have to think about it," Chun'er went out and inquired about the news outside, "This is related to your future life, and what you said to Aunt Mei... I know if Aunt Mei will see you..."
Chun'er originally tried to persuade Ye Jin, but at the end she sighed.
Not to mention whether the third lady will figure it out, what Ye Jin said to Aunt Mei over and over again before, the mother and daughter must have separated long ago.
Ye Jin sat in the room and thought for a while, before finally deciding, "Chun'er, take my new glass cup and go to see Aunt Mei."
Ye Jin always thought that Aunt Mei and Ye Shaohua were the most unbearable existences in the mansion just like before, but when they arrived in Liyuan, they were completely stunned.
