Wen Yuan said, "It's rare for my sister to be so lively. Brother Xu, do you think my sister is pretty?"

Xu Wenwu looked at Wen Die, who was flying around the orchard like a butterfly with her skirt lifted, and said, "Miss Wen is naturally elegant and refined."

Wen Yuan smiled and said, "Well, Brother Xu has good taste."

Everyone picked a whole basket of various fruits. Since there were many people in the family, they could finish them all.

Wendie's hands were stained with mud, but she didn't mind at all. Instead, she liked the feeling very much.

"Brother Wen, the lobster pond in front is my family's, and the fish pond is next to it." Xiao Wu said.

Wen Yuan asked in confusion, "What is a lobster?"

Xiao Wu said proudly, "It's just crayfish. It's especially fragrant and delicious when made into spicy flavor!"

Wen Yuan said, "Then I'd like to try it."

"No problem, my family will make it at noon, and you can eat then."

"Brother Xu, why does that white house look so strange?" Wen Yuan asked curiously, pointing at the vegetables in the greenhouse.

"Hahaha! That's a greenhouse. But if you say it's a house, that's correct. It's just a house for vegetables."

Along the way, he met many villagers who would smile and call out "Master Juren!" when they saw Xu Wenwu.

Even though Xu Wenwu was always self-possessed and steady, he felt a little embarrassed when being called "Juren Master" so many times.

Wen Die burst out laughing. She had never seen Brother Xu like this before. He was really cute!

Hearing Wendie's laughter, the brothers also laughed out loud without any hesitation, making Xu Wenwu helplessly shake his head.

When everyone returned to Xu's house, they found the atmosphere a little weird, and they saw that there was one more person.

"Brother Su, you're back?"

Su Chenyu said, "Well, I didn't expect that my home would be so lively after I just went to the mountains. Wenwu, congratulations! I'm rooting for you!"

"Thank you, Brother Su!"

At this time, Prefect Wen looked a little nervous.

Wen Yuan noticed something was wrong and asked, "Dad, what's wrong with you?"

Wen Zhifu said: "No... Dad is fine." How could he reveal the identity of the master next to him! Just now, Su Chenyu looked at him with a hint of warning, obviously not wanting him to reveal his identity.

"Mom, look, sister Qibao took us to pick a lot of fruits. I have never seen them before!" Wendie said with a smile.

Mrs. Wen looked at the basket of fruit and said in surprise, "Don't say you haven't seen it before. This is the first time I've seen such beautiful fruit."

Wang said without a word: "Chunlan, go wash these fruits and bring them over."

"Yes, madam." Chunlan said.

"Wenwu, what are your plans next?" asked the prefect Wen.

"Uncle Wen, Wenwu plans to wait until March next year to go to Beijing on time to take part in the palace examination!" Xu Wenwu said.

The dean sighed and said, "Wenwu, the academy can no longer teach you anything. You don't have to go to school every day. Just prepare well at home."

Xu Wenwu said, "I understand."

"Civil and military, this examination is extremely important. Only those who rank high can participate in the Palace Examination. The Palace Examination is held directly in the Imperial Palace. All your answers will be personally reviewed by the Emperor, who will personally decide the top three candidates."

The old man said, "Wouldn't that mean I could see the emperor?"

Prefect Wen said, "The top three will be brought to the court to meet the emperor, who will assign them official positions. If they receive the emperor's approval, it would be normal for them to stay in the capital to serve."

The old man said, "So that's how it is."

Su Chenyu said: "Wenwu, when you go to the capital next year, you can come to me with the token and I will make all the arrangements for you."

Xu Wenwu said, "Thank you, Brother Su."

"Hey! Why should we be polite? We are brothers! You are so handsome. Maybe you will catch the eye of some young lady. Wouldn't that mean you are lucky in love?" Su Chenyu joked with a smile.

“Bang!”

A crisp sound was heard.

Everyone looked over and saw Wendie frantically trying to bend down to pick up the broken pieces of the teacup on the ground, muttering, "I'm sorry, Grandma Xu, I didn't mean to."

Wang immediately grabbed Wendie and said, "Be careful not to scratch your hand. It's just a broken cup. It's okay. I'll ask the servants to clean it up."

Wen Die nodded, wondering why she was so impatient and clumsy, but when she thought that Brother Xu's future wife was another woman, her heart ached.

Seeing Wendie standing there uncomfortably, like a child waiting to be scolded for doing something wrong, Xu Wenwu said without hesitation, "It's okay, don't blame yourself. As long as you're not hurt, that's all."

Hearing Xu Wenwu's words of comfort, Wendie felt a little happy and said, "Thank you for your concern, Brother Xu!"

Some people noticed something in this scene.

Wang smiled and said, "Madam Wen, I think Miss Wen is of marriageable age now. I wonder if she has any engagement yet?"

Madam Wen said, "Not yet. She will be coming of age this year."

Wang nodded and said, "Miss Wen is a good girl. We should find a good match for her."

Mrs. Wen smiled and said half-jokingly, "I think Wenwu and my Die'er are a good match. I'm quite satisfied!"

Zhang smiled and said, "I think Die'er likes it too. I'm just worried that my Wenwu isn't good enough for Die'er!"

Wen Die's face flushed. With so many people listening here, she glanced at Xu Wenwu secretly, then lowered her head with a flushed face.

At noon, when it was time for lunch, men and women worked separately because there were guests.

"Brother Wen, this is crayfish! Try it!" Xiao Wu enthusiastically picked up a bright red lobster and put it into Wen Yuan's bowl.
