The old lady of the Lin family in Honglou

Early in the morning, Lin Sui was drinking morning tea leisurely in the private room of the restaurant.

"The young master is not in a hurry at all." Lin Yilin was circling around, really wanting to go out to inquire about the news. Today the rankings are released, and I don't know how many places my young master got in the exam.They are very confident in their young master, it is impossible not to make the list.

"What are you in a hurry for? Sit down and have a sip of tea with the young master. The rankings haven't been released so early. Besides, you can squeeze Lin Wu and the others when you go out."

Lin Yi thought that every time the list was released, Lin Wu and the others could squeeze in and squeeze out, and they followed suit one time, but the result was really embarrassing to be stepped on. The situation is terrible, it's better to accompany the young master and wait for the news.

After waiting for a quarter of an hour, Lin Yi couldn't sit down anymore, so she ran to the bottom of the lobby to inquire about the news, and when she heard that the rankings had been released, she ran upstairs, "Master, the rankings have already been released, Lin Wu will be back soon" and ran to the window Looking anxiously at the street below.

When Lin Yi couldn't wait, and was about to complain about why it took so long, she saw Lin Wu running over from a distance, and immediately walked up to the young master, and said excitedly, "You're back, young master Lin Wu is back." Then he ran down to meet the young master. Lin Wu.

Lin Wu was panting and was brought in by Lin Yi, "Lin Wu, hurry up, is the young master at the top of the list?" Lin You asked anxiously.

Lin Sui patted Lin You angrily, and said leisurely, "Is there such a question? There are many scholars in Beijing, and one out of ten with outstanding ability, as long as they are among the best." In fact, Lin Sui is also very Care about how the exam is.

Lin You touched his head and said with a smile, "Lin Wu, hurry up."

Lin Wu panted, "You have to drink some tea first." Lin Wu was also very upset, and wanted to play tricks on Lin Yilin'er.

Lin Yi was more impatient, "Grandpa, just hurry up and I will feed you personally later."

Lin Wu glanced at Lin Yi, laughed a few times, and said seriously, "Master, you are in second place."

Lin Sui is quite normal about such a result. The second place, that is to say, there is another one who is more powerful. I don't know which family name it is.

"Who's at the top of the list?"

"It's a man named Zhu Xiao. I heard that he was the number one in the two lakes last year. There is also Tanhua Kong Xuan, who is the number one in Shandong." Lin Wu immediately remembered the top three, and remembered everyone's discussions when he came back. .

After the list was released, the top one from Zhejiang was very dissatisfied, and he felt that he was no different from the two in the same class. How could he be ranked fourth? Who the hell is Lin Sui who suddenly appeared.

Before going to Beijing, the top three in the rankings in various places would inquire about the top rankings in other places. Whether it is understanding or competing, they may be students of the same emperor, but where did this Lin Su come from?Only those who have been inquiring for a long time will know, but there are so many people who don't know. As soon as the list is released, many people are talking about who is this Lin Sui?

Lin Sui stood up, "Let's go home, the announcer has almost arrived."

Fortunately, Lin Sui didn't walk very far. As soon as the front foot entered the house, the annunciation arrived on the back foot.

The Lin family was filled with joy.Jia's atmosphere is not so harmonious.

Mother Jia stared at Mrs. Wang in displeasure, "Didn't I tell you to come to the Lin's house early in the morning to pick up Lin Sui, why hasn't he arrived yet?"

Did Mrs. Wang say it was intentional?He didn't want Lin Sui to come to Jia's mansion to save face for him. Yesterday he just asked people to pick Lin Sui up this morning, but he didn't say how long ago.

"My daughter-in-law didn't expect that my nephew would go out so early." Mrs. Wang honestly pleaded guilty to Mrs. Jia.

"Hey, I just want to bring my nephew over to have fun. Why didn't you ask someone to look for it?" Jia's mother stared at Wang with hatred. This name has been around for many years, how could this Wang still understand her own identity? The intention is really a rotten wood head.

Yesterday, Wang Xifeng was reminded by her mother-in-law not to go to the room so early today. Although she didn't understand, she also knew that her mother-in-law would not treat her badly, so she deliberately delayed the time today. Unexpectedly, there was news from outside that it was Lin Sui. The brother won the second place, so he walked all the way to Jiamu's room with a smile.

Jia's mother was in a bad mood, and when she heard the laughter outside, she knew that the grandson's daughter-in-law was coming, so she stopped looking at Wang.

"Why are you so happy today? If you don't tell me something, I won't obey you." Jia Mu laughed.

"Oh, good old ancestor, I really have a happy event today. As soon as I went out today, I saw magpies singing happily on the branches. I was thinking about what a happy event, when it came out that cousin Lin won the second place. Mr. Ancestor, do you think this is a great joy, if I don't reward you today, I won't accept it." Wang Xifeng teased.

Mother Jia laughed loudly, "You little monkey, what is your favorite thing about your ancestors?"

"The old ancestor said so, but the grandson's daughter-in-law will not obey. I came here to ask for a reward."

Although Mrs. Wang was upset, why didn't the higher-ups open their eyes, let that person get the second place in the list, so she stepped forward and said with a smile, "Since it's a happy event, why don't you invite your nephew to celebrate, our side is more lively."

Mother Jia looked up at Mrs. Wang.

"Why don't you let Lian'er come and invite her, Lian'er is fine on weekdays." Wang looked at Wang Xifeng and said.

Although I don't know what happened just now, but seeing the look in the eyes of the girl handing over, I know that it is unpleasant. Why is my aunt so kind to come ahead of her husband today.He laughed and said, "It's really a coincidence that my husband is on a business trip today, and he mentioned this to me yesterday, otherwise I would have had a good reunion with cousin Lin."

You did it on purpose, no one knows that Jia Lian is very free on weekdays, so how could he ever be on a job, but today he is on a job.Wang thought displeased.

"Yesterday he sent a message from Shangfeng, saying that he is a bit busy today, so he asked my husband to go out for inspection. Since Shangfeng has already spoken, my husband left early in the morning." Wang Xifeng explained.

"It's right to wait for orders. It's fine to send other people there, not necessarily Lian'er." Mother Jia looked at Wang Shi unhappy.

Today, after eating twice, Wang blamed Lin Sui for her unhappiness, and was also very dissatisfied with Wang Xifeng's performance, so she thought in her heart how to get back together.

After Lin Suzheng distributed the wedding money, Jia Amnesty arrived with Jia Lian.Fortunately, there is a lot of preparation. The Lin family is generally middle-class, and they don't pay much attention. When they heard that their neighbors were on the list, many of them came to congratulate them, and many children came to ask for money. Fortunately, Lin San was prepared. There are two full baskets of copper coins, otherwise it is really not enough.

Jia She has not been to Lin's house for many years, but he is still very familiar with Lin's house.When Lin Xuan knew that his uncle was coming, he hurried out to greet him.

"Uncle is here, why don't people tell you, so nephew can come out and wait." Lin Sui stepped forward and said.

"Hehe, you are the busiest today. Uncle just stopped by to congratulate you after hearing the good news." Jia She still likes this eldest nephew very much, so he came here specially to have a look.

"That's great, my nephew should have come to the door." Lin Sui said modestly.

"Master, the General's Mansion knows that the young master has won the list and invites the young master to celebrate." Lin Wu came over and said.

Lin Sui frowned slightly, thinking about it.

"Is your nephew inconvenient?" Jia She noticed the change in Lin Sui.

"The palace exam is coming up soon, and my nephew still wants to study with peace of mind. It's best to wait until the palace exam is out before celebrating." Lin Sui said honestly.

"Nephew is right to think, don't worry, uncle will tell you about this." Jia Amnesty patted Lin Sui on the shoulder.

"Then thank you uncle."

After Lin Sui sent Jia Amnesty away, he announced that he would start to study in closed doors.In fact, Lin Sui still has things to do, it's just that it is more convenient to reject some people.

When Jia Amnesty returned home, he went to Jia's mother to tell Lin Sui what he wanted, but Jia's mother had no choice but to stop mentioning it.

The Lin family has a house in Beijing, unlike other students who have to rent a room to live in a hotel, because this will reduce the communication with their peers, which is not a good thing.There is still more than a month before the palace exam, and everything that needs to be prepared is ready. Lin Sui is very relaxed about himself, and often goes outside to participate in a student's seminar.

Because of the second place in the list this time, everyone knew Lin Sui. When they knew it was Lin Sui, everyone was very excited. In addition, Lin Sui's knowledge and conversation were not bad at all, and he quickly won a good reputation among the crowd. reputation.Lin Sui also made some good friends.

Mrs. Wang found out later, and then she wanted to say something in front of Jia's mother.I heard from Wang Xifeng that if you don't study hard like that, who knows what will happen to the palace exam.Thinking about it, it's better to ridicule him after the palace test comes out.Just waiting to see Lin Sui's joke.

Wang's eyes flickered, he's going to take advantage of him first, but he will definitely come over next time, in that case, it's better to arrange it again, so that he will be ashamed when the time comes.

It is not an exaggeration to describe ten years of studying hard in the cold window, and once thousands of troops squeezed a single tree.There is also a re-examination in modern times, but there is no such thing as re-examination here.Even if you pass the exam, the future is not certain.

More than 100 tributes were nervously swaying an important examination paper for this person in the hall.However, there are always some people who are confident. Compared with other people who are sweating, these people can always attract more attention.Lin Xuan was naturally one of them.The people the emperor paid attention to, naturally someone handed their life information to the emperor's desk soon.

There are still three days before the list is released. Lin Sui will go out every morning, but Wang is so angry that he will die.I don't know whether it was intentional or unintentional, so Jia's mother handed over the matter of inviting Lin Sui to Wang's family, but Wang's family couldn't find the right owner.

Three days passed in a blink of an eye, Lin Sui dressed neatly early in the morning, and waited outside the palace gate with all the tributes.Soon a servant came out and ordered more than 20 people including Lin Sui to have an audience.

Lin Sui waited with everyone for the final announcement.

Lin Sui was appointed Tanhua by the court, and Lin Sui had already thought about such a result.The emperor is also a willing maker of all kinds of good talks.A double exploration of flowers is also a propaganda to the court and among the common people.

Lin Sui and the No. [-] Scholar were arranged to parade in the streets to show their gratitude after the second place in the ranking. In the evening, there was a special palace banquet held by the emperor. Today is not an ordinary busy day.

Jia's house received the news, and the whole house celebrated, and Jia's mother even asked people to go out to set off firecrackers to celebrate.Wang Shi even went up to laugh with him, vomiting blood angrily.I think it's all Jia Min's fault, and I have to fight with myself for everything.Now her Zhu'er is not here, but Jia Min's son is in high school.Angrily thinking about how to get Jia Min, he kept thinking about who was available.

"Old lady, for such a big happy event, we have to send people south to congratulate the Lin family." Mrs. Wang congratulated.

Mother Jia looked at Mrs. Wang happily, and Mrs. Wang finally had the brains to know what to do, and said happily, "This is what should be done, and I will leave it to you. Yuanyang, hurry up and see what you can give away." Good morning." Mother Jia ordered.

When Wang got something to say, he went out without mentioning it.
