When they arrived at the place, there were too many people, so Yuanman didn't go down, and the two teenagers went to see it together.

Seeing that He Keye looked calm and her brother was in high spirits, she knew that everything was safe.

Sure enough, He Keye came first and her brother came third.

They all did well in the exam, so they asked the servant to go back and inform their family first, and they had lunch in the restaurant before going back.

The three of them happily went to the restaurant to have dinner.

After the meal, He Ke went to pay the bill. Guo Youyi and Yuan Man were waiting for him outside.

Yuanman saw a gorgeously dressed man hugging a beautiful woman.

The woman seemed somewhat familiar. Yuan Man looked at her a few more times but couldn't remember where he had seen her.

The woman also saw her. For a moment, the woman's eyes showed many things, like surprise and jealousy. When she was about to take a closer look, He Ke also came back.

After just one glance, when she went to look for the woman again, she couldn't find her.

Yuanman couldn't figure it out, so he stopped thinking about it.

They went back in a carriage.

After returning to the mansion, because the palace examination would be held in a few days, the two families had dinner together.

He Ke never came to see her again afterwards, but occasionally he would have people send things to her.

Yuanman knew that they were in the final sprint.

She played until late at night and occasionally passed by her eldest brother's room, where he was always reading.

Soon it was March 7th, the day of the palace examination.

Yuanman got up early and saw the two off, then washed up and had breakfast.

She was in no mood to play and could only sit nervously with her elders, and then had lunch.

Yuanman felt a little tired at one o'clock in the afternoon, so he went back to rest.

Suddenly there was a lot of noise outside and she was half asleep and half awake.

Changchun suddenly rushed in and called her, "Miss! Our young master is the third place in the imperial examination! Young Master He next door is the first place in the imperial examination!"

Yuan Man flipped over and said, "Hurry up, help me wash and dress up."

When Yuanman arrived at the hall, her house was full of people coming to congratulate her, and the house next door was even more lively.

Even the area between the two families was crowded with people, ready to get to know the third and first place winners.

Yuanman rubbed his temple and went back.

Anyway, if she doesn't go to the mountain, the mountain will naturally come to her.

Sure enough, not long after she finished dinner in her own small yard, the boy came.

He seemed to have changed his clothes and walked towards her in high spirits.

Yuan Man had cakes and fruits served, and said with a smile, "The number one scholar has arrived. What a rare guest."

He Ke also laughed, sat down and ate a cake, then said, "Youyou, do you want to get engaged in May or June? Both are good dates, and then we can get married next year."

Yuan Man didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "It's all fine, but there's no need to be so anxious, right?"

She also wants to spend more time with her mother.

He Ke didn't comment for a long time before he said, "I just want to be with Youyou as soon as possible. If we become husband and wife, we can be together all the time."

"I'm too young."

"…We have our own mansion. You can do whatever you want. No one will care if you get up at noon. You are the real master of the mansion. Even I have to listen to Youyou."

"...I can't convince you." Although Yuan Man was very moved, she only believed a little bit of what the man said.

The little girl's attitude softened, and He Ke felt relieved. From now on, he could openly pester Youyou day and night.

The two chatted for a few more words, and then He Ke went home excitedly to prepare for his engagement with his parents.

As March approached April, the weather gradually became warmer and Yuanman changed into spring clothes.

She was lying in the rocking chair, covered with a blanket, drowsy, and her mother came in and sat next to her.

Yuan Man tried his best to wake up and asked, "Why is mother here?"

She was patted on the head, "Our Youyou is already a grown-up girl."

Yuan Man leaned into Mrs. Guo's arms and acted coquettishly, "Well, I will always be my mother's precious daughter."

Mrs. Guo touched her lovingly and said, "Yes."

After saying that, Mrs. Guo sat down at the round table next to her. She had something important to tell her. Yuan Man understood what she meant and stood up and sat down next to the round table.

"The Duke's wife is here today."

When Yuanman heard the name, he felt unfamiliar, as if he had never seen this lady before.

"What's wrong? Mother."

"The Duke's wife is here to propose marriage to you, your brother Katsuya."

Yuanman lowered his head and smiled.

Mrs. Guo tapped her forehead with her finger and said, "You are really blessed. Your brother Katsuya is ready to move out so that you can live a comfortable life after marrying him."

Yuan Man held Mrs. Guo's hand and acted coquettishly, "I don't want to marry him. I want to stay with mother for a few more years."

Mrs. Guo clapped her hands and said, "Yes, we plan to get you married after the Chinese New Year."

Looking at his daughter's beautiful face, "Ke also said that he will make good preparations to marry you during this period. He only knew how to practice martial arts before, but now he has taken care of everything for you. He is really thoughtful."

Yuan Man leaned against Mrs. Guo and snorted, "That's how it should be."

"Okay, okay, our Jiaojiao should be pampered and loved."

They chatted about some daily life, and it was late at night, so Mrs. Guo went back first.

Yuanman finished washing up and went to bed to rest when the system suddenly popped up.

"Host, now your marriage with the hero is almost certain. There is a small world over there that is about to collapse. I have to find a girl to stabilize the hero. From now on, you and the hero are considered to be in love with each other. I hope you can be happy."

"Wait a minute, 01, I want to ask how Yuyu is doing? Is she okay?"

"You don't have permission."

"Please, 01, Yuyu is my only family."

01After a long silence, he said, "She will be as happy as you."

After saying that, 01 left without waiting for Yuanman to react. When she came to her senses, there was no trace of 01 in her mind.

She turned over and lay down, smiled, and then said goodbye silently in her heart, "Goodbye, 01, thank you."

A few days later, the He family sent a large amount of betrothal gifts to the Guo family.

The yard was piled high with things, and Mrs. Guo and her maid were ordering them with smiles on their faces.

At night, Yuan Man sat alone thinking. It didn't make sense that He Ke hadn't come to see her for such a long time.

Then Mrs. Guo came to her yard, with a servant behind her holding two books.

Mrs. Guo sat down and took a sip of tea, then had two books placed in front of her. "This one is the dowry we prepared for you, and the other one is the betrothal gift from the He family."

"Now, take it and look at it to get familiar with it. Don't confuse your own things."

Yuan Man nodded, "I understand, mother.

She is the boss of a chain of clothing stores, so it is easy for her to buy these things.

Mrs. Guo nodded in satisfaction again, "The He family gave you quite a lot. I guess they brought all the good things from the mansion to you."
