Enter the red building

When Xue Qiu returned to Xue's house again, he felt dazed.Xue Qiu carefully looked at the plaque on the door of Xue's house, fascinated.Seeing Xue Qiu staring blankly at the door but not going in, Butler Xue felt strange, and stepped forward and asked, "What's wrong, sir?"

Xue Qiu came back to his senses, shook his head, said "It's okay!", and walked into the door.

Xue Qiu told Steward Xue who was beside him: "Those from the Lin family, you can arrange it first. You don't need to assign some work for now. I plan to take them to the capital in the future."

Steward Xue nodded in response, and said: "Madam is already waiting for uncle in the main hall."

Xue Qiu nodded and went straight to the main hall.As soon as he arrived at the main hall, he saw his mother standing under the eaves looking around, Xue Qiu hurriedly ran over, bowed and said, "My son has seen his mother!"

Mrs. Xue hurriedly helped Xue Qiu up, and looked up and down carefully to see if Xue Qiu was all right.Looking at Xue Qiu's thin face, Mrs. Xue said with pity: "Qiu'er, are you exhausted these days?"

Xue Qiu shook his head and said, "Mom, let's go in and talk!"

Xue Baoqin stood aside and said, "Yes! Mother, let's go in and talk."

After hearing what happened to Xue Qiu these days, Mrs. Xue couldn't help but let out a long sigh, and said with a sad expression: "Poor Master Lin died like this."

Xue Qiu lowered his head and remained silent.

Xue Baoqin saw that her brother was sad, and hurriedly said: "Brother, why didn't Master Lin's only daughter Lin Daiyu go back to Jinling with you and come to our house?"

Mrs. Xue also said: "Yes! Your adoptive father actually left you so much property, you have to take good care of your adoptive sister."

Xue Qiu shook his head and said, "Sister Daiyu, after all, she has nothing to do with our family, so she can only go back to her grandmother's house."

Xue Baoqin thought that Xue Qiu would take part in the township examination soon, and then the examination, and said with a smile: "Brother, I must be able to go to the capital soon, and I will go too. Let's see what kind of beauty Sister Lin is. Such a compliment."

Mrs. Xue smiled and said, "You should go to the capital, after all, the Mei family has already returned to Beijing for a review."

Xue Qiu asked, "When did it happen? Did they say anything?"

Mrs. Xue shook her head, said nothing, and said, "Qiu'er, in a few days you will be taking part in the provincial examination, so you have to prepare well."

Xue Qiu nodded, looked at Xue Baoqin and sighed.

In the next few days, apart from learning martial arts with his master Shi Tie every day, Xue Qiu spent the rest of his time reading books. After all, he hadn't read a book for almost a month, and Xue Qiu didn't want to wait another three years.

The Jinling Township Examination was still held at the place where the college examination was held. After Xue Qiu experienced it once, he didn't feel much excitement, and some just hoped that it would end quickly.The content of the township examination is generally the same as before, and it is still stereotyped selection.Xue Qiu had already memorized the Four Books and Five Classics before, and after reviewing them again, he was naturally confident, and he quickly finished his answers with a swipe of his pen.Just to be on the safe side, Xue Qiu did not rush to hand in the paper, but checked repeatedly.When it was time to hand in the papers, some families were happy and others were sad.Some were crying, while others were smiling.

Xue Qiu ran into Xue Qi again this time, but this time Xue Qi turned around and left.Xue Qi didn't dare to provoke Xue Qiu anymore, because the literati in Jinling now knew that Xue Qiu was the one who gave those eternal absolutes, and they admired Xue Qiu very much in their hearts, it could be said that they worshiped him.Regarding this township examination, several bets were specially set up, and the bet was whether Xue Qiu could pass Jieyuan.After Xue Qiu found out, he could only smile helplessly.

Xue Qiu met Liu Sheng, and the two just looked at each other and smiled without saying anything.

On the apricot list posted a few days later, Xue Qiu was indeed ranked first, commonly known as Jie Yuan. No.2 is still Liu Sheng, who is only called Juren.

Xue Qiu smiled. After all, his memory is very good, some of his insights are very unique, and the difficulty of the rural examination is not that great compared with the difficulty of the college examination, and he only quotes classics.Presumably those examiners know that they are the ones who are beyond the ages, and they will also give themselves a solution.

Mrs. Xue was naturally very happy, and set up a few tables of wine for some elders of the Xue family and some relatives and friends.Xue Qiu had to go out to deal with it. In fact, Xue Qiu really didn't like drinking, but his mother tried hard to persuade him, Xue Qiu had to give in and could only go out to socialize.

But to Mrs. Xue's surprise, Xue Qiu became drunk as soon as he got drunk.He collapsed after just one sip, which made everyone else laugh, but they didn't feel ashamed in their hearts.Xue Qiu can be said to be the number one talented person in Jinling now, and no one wants to offend a person who will be very successful in the officialdom in the future.

Xue Baoqin saw that Xue Qiu was still dazed, and couldn't help smiling, "Brother, your drinking capacity is really good. Uncle is scared by your drinking capacity."

As soon as Xue Qiu heard it, he knew that his sister was teasing him, but he was not angry, he just smiled and said, "It seems that I can't remember the score last time, what should I do, sister."

Upon hearing this, Xue Baoqin hurriedly asked: "What's going on? How could you forget?"

Xue Qiu shook his head and sighed, "I'm really not good at drinking, I don't remember after drinking a little."

Only then did Xue Baoqin realize that her brother was teasing her, so she pouted and said, "Brother is really narrow-minded, he doesn't look like a gentleman at all. I don't know what those people outside who came to talk about marriage are interested in my brother."

Xue Qiu's face darkened, feeling very uncomfortable in his heart.These days, there are not ten matchmakers, but nine matchmakers who come to their door to say goodbye.Mother also seems to have taken a fancy to some girls.Xue Qiu sighed, feeling inexplicably melancholy.

Looking at Xue Qiu's unnatural expression, Xue Baoqin also understood a little bit, and regretted that her slip of the tongue made her brother feel uncomfortable.But then he thought about it and asked, "Brother, do you have someone in your heart?"

Xue Qiu's face was flustered, and he scolded: "What are you talking about? Say this carefully, and be careful, I will tell my mother."

Xue Baoqin understood a little bit more in her heart, but she was just wondering who made her brother fall in love. It seemed that her brother didn't know many women.Turning around, he accidentally saw the unfinished letter on the desk, and was startled, could it be——

##########################

Since Lin Daiyu brought out the 5 taels of silver in Jia's mansion in the capital, no one dared to gossip anymore, and the newly brought maid by Lin Daiyu's side, Qian Que, couldn't be underestimated. What tricks are playing in front of her.Since Xue Qiu's careful exhortation to Wang Momo, everything around Lin Dai has taken care of her.Xueyan didn't mess around anymore, and was only thinking of Lin Daiyu.

Lin Daiyu was also very happy when she saw the performance of Qian Que and the others, and she was even more grateful to Xue Qiu.It's just that Zicuckoo feels very uncomfortable and bored.

Wearing a blue shirt, Xueyan walked in with a letter, and said with a smile, "Miss, Mr. Xue Qiu has another letter. This time there is another letter from Miss Xue's family."

Lin Daiyu got up quickly when she heard this, and said with a smile on her face, "Give it to me quickly!"

Xueyan smiled and handed the letter to Lin Daiyu, and said, "Miss, Mr. Xue really cares about you."

Lin Daiyu stared, "I want you to talk more!"

Xueyan chuckled and didn't care.

Lin Daiyu opened the letter, read it carefully, and said with a smile: "It's so good, my brother is already Jieyuan." Then he said: "My brother said that he will come to the capital soon after the Chinese New Year."

The snow geese and the shallow sparrow on the side all smiled happily when they heard it.Qian Que smiled and said: "Master, you are really amazing!" Xue Yan also said the same.

Lin Daiyu put Xue Qiu's letter away, and then opened Xue Baoqin's letter to her. Looking at it, Lin Daiyu suddenly smiled.

Qianque asked, "What's the matter, Miss?"

"I don't know why my brother got drunk after drinking a glass of wine!" Lin Daiyu said with a smile.

Just at this time, a voice came from outside the door, "Sister, what are you happy about?" The person who came was Jia Baoyu, the second master of Bao in Jia's mansion.

Lin Daiyu didn't hear Jia Baoyu's words, holding the letter in her hand, she didn't know how she felt, and murmured: "Brother is about to discuss marriage!"
