The Peasant Girl’s Splendid Manor

Chapter 700: The father who cheated his daughter got a son-in-law (1)

The two officers really came to bring good news. After dismounting from their horses, they took the lead in saluting Mo Yan, the county prince. Then they bowed their hands to Mo Qingze, said "Mo Juren", and then took out the good news and handed it to Mo Qingze respectfully. Qingze.

Mo Qingze opened the good news with a calm expression. After seeing the ranking above, a hint of ambiguity flashed in his eyes.

Mo Yan didn't notice anything strange about his father, so he quickly came over to take a look. He saw his father's name at the top of his head, and then he saw the ranking of the successful candidate at the bottom - Zhili 101!

At the Autumn Palace held every three years, the first 200 candidates are usually admitted among the thousands of talents who participate in the Autumn Palace in the capital city. The one hundred and one is in the middle of the two hundred, not good or bad, but according to this term, it will not have an advantage in the coming spring.

You must know that the Chunwei Examination is for the whole Chu State. There are fifteen state capitals in Da Chu, and each state capital admits more than 200 people. Who can pass the examination and be a stupid person?

Except for the few who are not sure and want to wait another three years to participate in the Spring Festival, there will still be 2,500 Juren competing at the same time for the 103 Jinshi places. The competition is not insignificant.

 Mo Yan doesn’t know the level of other students, so he has no way to judge whether his father’s performance in achieving this ranking was normal or abnormal. However, it is already very good to be able to get the top two hundred among the three thousand talents in one try, and it has fulfilled my father's wish.

As for Chunwei, even if you fail next year, you can still continue in three years, so it’s not that important.

Mo Yan politely invited the two officers inside to rest and have some refreshments before leaving. The two police officers were frightened and refused because they had to go to other people's homes to announce the good news. Mo Yan didn't force himself and gave each of the two guards a red envelope.

The two officers happily accepted it, and when they touched a heavy lump in their purses, the smiles on their faces became even wider.

When they reached the halfway point, they saw no one around. The two of them carefully opened their purses and found that there were five taels of silver ingots inside. They were so happy that they couldn't see their eyes. They secretly thought that the newly appointed commander was really generous, even if he went to a few houses below. If you don't ask for money to announce the good news, you won't be deprived of the job of running away.

Next, the Mo family was bustling with people, and there was an endless stream of villagers who came to express their congratulations. Some families who planned to tighten their belts and send their children to school even brought their own children over, just to enjoy the joy of the newly released Juren. The child can become smarter, and in the future he will be able to take the exam to become a scholar or something, and he will be able to honor his ancestors.

 It was not until dusk that the Mo family, which had been busy all afternoon, gradually became quiet. Mo Yan decided to have a good celebration as a family in the evening, so she cooked a few special dishes with her own hands.

 When the dishes were ready, Mo Yan left the task of steaming the rice to Li Xiu, while he took off his apron and went to the study to mention the banquet to Mo Qingze.

Mo Qingze listened to his eldest daughter's suggestion and agreed without hesitation. He smiled lightly and said, "You were named a county prince earlier. Dad originally wanted to hold a banquet to celebrate when the limelight was over, but you were worried that you would act too ostentatiously. It will cause trouble, so we won’t do it! Now if we do these two happy events together, it won’t be ostentatious, and we won’t save the folks from paying for two gifts.”

Mo Qingze didn't know that his daughter didn't want to celebrate in a big way. It was simply that this county prince was obtained after being calculated. It would be great if she didn't force the title back because she was so embarrassed. How could she have the thought to hold a banquet!

This time, Mo Yan did not refuse, nodded and said very proudly: "Well, just listen to dad, let's celebrate the two happy events together! When the time comes, it will be a flowing banquet, and whoever in the village wants to come to the wedding banquet can come to eat. Our family doesn’t lack that kind of thing now!”
