The maids didn't drink alcohol and were enjoying their meals. Jiang Yuan was sitting on the roof outside the yard, holding a jar of wine.

Qu Ying was beside her, holding a glass of wine and looking at the crescent moon in the sky. "What on earth did you do today?"

"Gambling house."

Jiang Yuan told Qu Ying about her scheme against Jiang Hao. When she heard that Jiang Hao owed an IOU of more than one thousand taels and that Jiang Yuan had clearly tricked him, Qu Ying clapped her hands and looked at Jiang Yuan with admiration.

"Do you know how to roll the dice? How could you let him lose so much?"

Jiang Yuan pulled a hair from his head and twisted it around his fingers to form a strange pattern, "Roll the dice, feel it with your hands, feel it with your ears.

Ear sense is very simple, it is to be able to hear the different sounds on each side of the dice, so that you know what the number is without looking.

The feel is a bit more complicated. One is the shaking feel, and the other is this.

The dice is on the table, and the first thing you need to know is what number it is. Next, you can use your hair to control its flipping forward, backward, left, and right.

If you want big, we have big; if you want small, we have small; even if you want several, we have them all.”

Qu Ying felt like she was listening to a myth. How could it be possible, using just a strand of hair?

Jiang Yuan let go, and the hair disappeared into the night with the wind. "If you want to compare the size, you can just shake it, you don't need the hair, you can just shake it out to get the number you want.

But this kind of shake first and guess later requires the help of hair, and may need to be changed at any time. "

"How do you know all this?" Qu Ying simply wanted to know. After all, this skill was really amazing.

Jiang Yuan said casually, "I was bored, so I played by myself. The days are long, so I have to find something to pass the time."

Qu Ying poured a glass of wine for Jiang Yuan, held the glass with her, and praised, "Great, great, I'm convinced. If I run out of money in the future, I can still count on your craftsmanship to make some money, hahahaha."

"Oh, by the way, it's just over a thousand taels, not a lot. Why don't you let him lose tens of thousands of taels?" After a moment of silence, Qu Ying lay on the roof, looking at the sky happily, suddenly sat up and asked.

Jiang Yuan shrugged, somewhat helplessly, "I can make him lose, but I can't control how much he borrows. He is timid and doesn't dare to borrow more. Otherwise, I would want to cheat him out of his pants."

Qu Ying felt that it was not enough to relieve his anger. He snorted, "He got away with it. He almost caused Brother Jiang to be unable to take the exam. Now he only lost more than a thousand taels. It's really not enough."

"Don't worry, I can't let him off so easily. If you want my brother to break his hand, then I'll let him break his hand first."

Qu Ying's eyes lit up, "What plan? Take me with you. Don't go alone. I want to go too."

Jiang Yuan took the wine glass, glanced at Qu Ying, raised his head and drank it all in one gulp, "Do you really want to go?"

Qu Ying smiled at the nodding head like a chicken pecking at rice, "Okay, then you move in and live here for a few days, and we'll wait for the opportunity."

Jiang Huai will come out after the exam on the evening of the third day. Jiang Yuan waited until the last day but still didn't get the chance.

Qu Ying didn't care. She happily spent every day in Jiang Yuan's small garden, tinkering with the device that imitated a river.

Regarding the management of river silt, Jiang Huai and his team have come up with a plan and have conducted experiments for a period of time. The results have also been submitted to the emperor.

This imitation device is no longer needed, but it is still turned on. Qu Ying thought it was fun, so she folded paper boats with a few maids and played with them in the wooden river channel.

Xie Yunxiao and Zhou Qian'an arrived at Jiang's house early in the morning. Jiang Yuan had already gotten up, prepared a menu, and was instructing Chunzhi and Zhishu.

Luzhu and Mohua were cleaning the house with Qu Ying's two maids. Brother Liu cleaned the carriage from inside to outside. During the three days of waiting for the exam, the horses were brushed twice. The whole Jiang residence was filled with joy.

"Wow, it's so lively. Are we starting to prepare for the banquet to celebrate now?" Xie Yunxiao's hearty voice came before anyone else arrived.

Jiang Yuan specially changed into new clothes today. She wore a white petticoat with flowing forged color and a peach pink outer skirt embroidered with a spring garden in gold and silver thread.

Qu Ying and Jiang Yuan are a pair. Hers is sky blue, but the embroidery patterns are the same. The two sets of clothes were specially ordered by the princess to be made in a hurry.

When he walked out of the house, the two young masters who had just entered were very surprised to see him.

Zhou Qian smiled and bowed, "You two girls are so beautiful, this girl should only exist in heaven."

After everything was packed up, two carriages set off from the Jiang residence at the same time. Xie Yunxiao's injury had not yet healed, so he sat in the carriage of the Marquis' Mansion with Zhou Qian'an. Jiang Yuan and Qu Ying took Fu Yun and Lu Zhu to sit in Brother Liu's carriage.

The entrance to the examination room was already crowded with people, all waiting for the candidates to come out.

Looking around, there were quite a few officials and their families in the capital. Qu Ying looked out of the window, pointed at the carriages in the crowd and introduced them, saying which official this one belonged to, which marquis's mansion that one belonged to, and so on.

Jiang Yuan listened in a daze and didn't remember a single word.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, the door of the examination room slowly opened and the candidates walked out one by one. Some were chatting and laughing, some were dejected, and there were all kinds of expressions.

Liu Chengshan supported Jiang Huai and walked out of the gate. When he looked up, he saw Jiang Yuan and Qu Ying standing on the carriage frame.

"Haha, these two girls are really not fussy about trivial matters." Liu Chengshan said with a smile, and Jiang Huai also laughed.

At this time, Jiang Yuan jumped directly from the frame to the ground, turned around and picked up Qu Ying, and spun smoothly in the air. Qu Ying landed steadily, and the two held hands and squeezed into the crowd with smiles.

When the two young masters who were waiting by the other carriage saw this, they smiled lovingly and felt more and more that this lively and cheerful girl was much more lovely than those who acted like ladies from wealthy families.

At least, looking at a girl like this makes me really happy, and my smile is unconscious, like the warm sun.

"Brother." Jiang Yuan jumped three feet high and rushed to Jiang Huai's side. Brother Liu happily took the exam basket that Jiang Huai was carrying, "Brother Huai, you have worked hard."

"A Yuan, you must be getting impatient."

Jiang Yuan bowed slightly to Liu Chengshan, "Thank you, Brother Chengshan."

Liu Chengshan paused and hid behind Jiang Huai. "I say, second sister, I just came out of the examination room, don't scare me. I've been taking the exam for three days and I'm dizzy. You can't scare me at this time."

Jiang Yuan glared at Liu Chengshan in a reproachful manner, took Jiang Huai's arm, and complained, "Brother, your friend is not humorous at all."

"You are always making fun of me."

As he said this, he walked to the carriage. Jiang Huai was a little surprised to see Xie Yunxiao coming as well. "Brother Xie, your injury hasn't healed yet. You should rest well. Why are you here too?"

Xie Yunxiao patted Jiang Huai on the shoulder and said, "You have to come. Second sister has prepared a big meal. If I don't come to pick you up, how can you go and eat for free?"

"Yes, yes, I've prepared a big meal to nourish you two. You've become so skinny in the past three days." Jiang Yuan urged them to get on the carriage quickly.

Jiang Huai didn't know whether to laugh or cry. After three days of exams, he was just skin and bones. He must have been too hungry. Besides, he hadn't suffered any injustice and had eaten so well.
