Xiao Jiaojiao suffered from morning sickness and had many babies, and was pampered by Qing Leng'

Early the next morning, after Xie Yuan's morning exercises, he called Pingguo and Nanny Gui to him and told them about his plan to buy a maid and nanny.

Both of them are capable people with sharp eyes and good knowledge of people, so it is perfect for them to buy people.

"Since I have left this matter to Lao Nu and Pingguo, we will definitely get it done." Xie Yuan trusted them so much that Aunt Gui and Pingguo looked at each other happily and immediately agreed.

Xie Yuan opened the drawer, took out a sixty-tael banknote and handed it to the two of them. He also gave them a few special instructions before entering the backyard.

After a while, he finished breakfast with his wife, walked around the courtyard three times with her, and then found an excuse to go out.

In the medicine shop, Luan Yi was feeling the pulse of a patient. He was somewhat surprised to see Xie Yuan coming. Why was he back at this time?

Although there were many questions in his mind, Luan Yi did not ask immediately. He calmed down, took the patient's pulse, prescribed a prescription, and told the medicine hall clerk that he would not receive the patient for the time being. Then he asked: "When will you come back?" ?Where is your wife?"

"Just now, Mingyue was still in Kyoto and has not returned."

Luan Yi poured a cup of tea and handed it to him: "What's the matter with your sudden return?"

Xie Yuan nodded and told Luan Yi about his wife's situation.

Luan Yi didn't expect that Jiang Mingyue was pregnant with twins, and soon understood the reason for Xie Yuan's return.

"Don't think wildly. Your wife is in good health and there is an experienced grandmother taking care of her at home. She will definitely be able to give birth to the child safely."

Luan Yi paused and said, "If you still don't worry, I will go and guard your wife personally on the day she gives birth."

Xie Yuan's expression softened a lot after hearing this.

"Thank you!"

"In our relationship, there is no need to say polite words. I will grab some medicine later and you can take it back to your wife to take once a day."

Taking medicine again?

"Ming Yue hasn't finished eating the medicine you grabbed last time."

"The medicine last time was for the child, but the medicine this time is for your wife."

Xie Yuan immediately had no objection after hearing this.

Luan Yi put the medicine into Xie Yuan's hand and said, "Start taking it in the eighth month."

Xie Yuan nodded.

"How did the exam go?" Luan Yi seemed to be just asking casually.

Xie Yuan smiled and did not answer his question, but Luan also got the answer from his confident smile.

"When you come back in a while, I will personally cook a few side dishes to celebrate for you."

Xie Yuan said 'hmm' and said, "Let's go!"

Luan Yi personally sent him out of the medicine shop, looked at the people leaving, and fell into deep thought. No one knew what he was thinking at this moment.

Time passed day after day, and the sound of papers being turned over and reviewed and examiners arguing with each other could be heard in Gongyuan.

After all, they are all articles written by people, and they all have merits, and the quality lies in whether the writing is good-looking, whether the paper is neat and tidy, and the comparison of some subtle details.

Three people exchanged comments on a test paper. Whether they stayed or went, the examiners would write down the reasons. The remaining test papers were finally handed over to the examiner Jiang Shangshu, who decided the final ranking.

On August 26th, Jiang Shangshu read the first test paper. It was full of comments, which aroused his curiosity. He opened the paper and read it for a while, vaguely feeling that both the words and the atmosphere in the text seemed familiar. , either he knows the candidate, or he should know the candidate's master.

Jiang Shangshu opened the seal that concealed his name, and his eyes flashed, it turned out to be him.

…………

On August 27, Jiang Shangshu entered the palace with the official list and the top ten examination papers.

In the imperial study room, Song Ming finished grading the memorial. During the break, he picked up the first examination paper and started reading it. After grading the memorial for a day, he was a little tired. Looking at the examination paper in his hand, he became more and more energetic. , yes, no wonder Jiang Shangshu ranked him first.

After Song Ming read the first test paper and the remaining nine copies, he opened the main list. He read it carefully. When he stood up and moved, he asked: "Boss and Second, who have you been in contact with recently?"

Ryan came out of the darkness, took out a list and handed it to Song Ming.

Song Cheng and Song Min thought that their behavior of recruiting talents was very secretive, but they didn't know that everything was under Song Ming's control.

After Song Ming read it, he put the list away.

"Have these people taken refuge with the boss or the second child?"

"Is there any one I circled?"

Song Ming nodded, and after comparing the two lists, he found that the first place was not within the range of the boss and the second. He only felt a little strange, but that was all.

Song Ming handed the official list to the eunuch beside him.

"Send it to Jiang Shangshu and say that I have read it."

"Yes!"

The eunuch respectfully took the official list and left.

On August 28, in Qingshi Hutong, at the fourth watch, candlelight was already lit in every room of the Xie family, because today was the day for the examination.

Yu Gen, Zhou Bin, and Chen Rong went to guard outside the Gongyuan early. Since they went early, they squatted at the front with the boys from other houses.

Jiang Mingyue had to get up frequently at night, and because she had something on her mind, she almost stayed up all night. As soon as Xie Yuan moved, she opened her eyes and sat up.

"It's still early, you can get some sleep." Xie Yuan saw that his wife's eyes were slightly bloodshot, and he knew that she had not rested well.

Jiang Mingyue shook her head gently.

"I can't sleep!"

Xie Yuan saw that his wife had put on her clothes and stood up, so he said no more.

In the main hall of the front yard, Jiang Mingyue and his brother looked at each other and smiled at the bloodshot eyes. It seemed that they didn't sleep well yesterday, but Xie Yuan was in high spirits. This really fulfilled the old saying, "Your Majesty." Don't be in a hurry, the eunuch is in a hurry'.

However, whether Xie Yuan can go to high school this time is not only related to himself, but also to the safety of their parents. It is normal for them to be concerned.

Although Jiang Minghong knew that Xie Yuan would definitely win, the result had not yet come out, and besides, many things in this life were different from those in his previous life, so he was afraid of what might happen.

Although Jiang Mingyue believed in her husband, she still felt a little uneasy.

It was just gray and bright, and Xie Yuan, Jiang Mingyue, Jiang Minghong, and Qi Yongsi had already had breakfast.

At the beginning of the morning, Shen Yu came to Qingshi Hutong.

Jiang Mingyue sat next to Xie Yuan, drinking tea and listening to the four people chatting.

"Thank you, brother-in-law. After the results of the general examination are out, you can start preparing for the palace examination."

Shen Yu paused and then said: "My father said that the emperor usually sets the questions for the palace examination himself. The emperor is a wise king. Brother-in-law Xie can show off his talents as much as possible."

Jiang Mingyue glanced at Shen Yu when she heard this. The Shen family was specifically trying to remind their husband! Although they were just two simple sentences, they expressed the likes and dislikes of the Holy One. In the palace examination, as long as Xie Yuan can get the favor of the Holy One, his ranking will be good.

"Go back and thank your father for me. I will pay you a visit when I have time." Thanks to that person, Xie Yuan knew the Holy Emperor very well. Even if no one gave him any advice, he also knew what attitude he should take when facing the Holy Emperor during the palace examination. .
