In the evening, the Tong family had dinner together. After the meal, Tong Xuewen escorted Tong Cheng'er back to her courtyard. On the way, Tong Xuewen said very seriously, "Thanks to my little sister for the instant noodles for this imperial examination. Otherwise, it would have been hard to say what the passing score would have been."

Tong Cheng'er shook her head, she dared not take credit for this: "Second brother's studies are solid, and his title of top scholar is well-deserved. It has little to do with me. Second brother, please don't put any 'labels' on me, or I won't stand for it."

Upon hearing this, Tong Xuewen smiled and said, "Alright, since you don't want to take credit, then thank you for all the trouble you've gone to for me."

Tong Cheng'er: "Second brother, you don't need to be so polite. Mother said that it would be too formal for family members to say thank you."

Tong Xuewen said helplessly, "Alright, I won't say thank you. I'm planning to invite Princess Guarjia out in a couple of days. You can come along and pick out some jewelry too."

Tong Cheng'er doesn't like going out, even if she has jewelry. However, thinking of her future sister-in-law, if she doesn't agree, her second brother and future sister-in-law are not yet married, so they probably won't be able to go out together.

"Okay, just let me know when you've set a time."

After Tong Cheng'er finished speaking, she said something and returned to her own courtyard. Tong Xuewen looked at his little sister's back and showed a doting smile.

Who could resist spoiling such a little sister? Although she seems a bit lazy, she understands everything perfectly. She's insightful and pampered by her whole family. She's delicate but not spoiled, and it always makes people's hearts soften.

She was extremely reluctant to go out before, but now that she has agreed, Tong Xuewen can guess what she's thinking. Ultimately, she wants to give him more opportunities to spend time with Princess Guarjia, so that their marriage will be happier in the future.

Actually, this seemingly silly and lazy little sister is very sensible and always thinks about what's best for the family. Who wouldn't treat such a lovely little sister well?

Anyway, Tong Xuewen couldn't refuse his younger sister and wanted to spoil her.

Leaving aside what will happen in a few days, just looking at the present, Tong Xuewen received many invitations to various gatherings on the second day after the results were released.

Tong Xuewen had a reputation before, but as a member of a Manchu family, his fame was limited to the capital. Moreover, due to his family background, he was not well-regarded and people thought his reputation was mostly just boasting. Now that the results of the imperial examination have been released, people have begun to pay attention to this member of a Manchu family.

You can't ignore it, because it's a real prize.
