Chapter 662 Seems a bit redundant
This time, Shao Yunduan would have to stay in the examination room for nine consecutive days and nine nights. Qiao Xuan's scalp tingled just thinking about it.
If she were to say, the scholars in ancient times were definitely not in bad physical condition and were definitely not weaklings who were powerless. Otherwise, they probably wouldn't even be able to pass an exam!
Anyone who can finally pass the imperial examination must be in good health!
Qiao Xuan felt a little empty, a little nervous, but also a little excited and expectant. Although it was too early to say anything at this moment, because everything was possible, she still had some faith that Shao Yunduan was so confident and well-prepared, could he really do it?
She should have faith in her!
That morning, Madam Le Zheng sent Xiaoxi to visit her, bringing her some cakes and snacks made in the mansion as well as fresh peaches, grapes and other seasonal fruits sent by the farm.
After two days of free time, Madam Le Zheng will come over in person.
Qiao Xuan felt warm in her heart and thanked him with a smile.
It is indeed a blessing for her and Shao Yunduan to be able to know Madam Le Zheng and her family.
During the days when Shao Yunduan was in the examination hall, Qiao Xuan, except for a trip to Lezheng Mansion to visit the eldest lady, stayed indoors all the time, quietly waiting for news from Shao Yunduan.
Le Zhengxiao sent someone to Shaoding Village again, bringing back two carts of ripe watermelons, 1,100 lipsticks, and news about the eldest wife of the Shao family.
After returning, Le Zhengxiao sent someone to deliver more than 2,800 taels of silver notes and a dozen large watermelons to Qiao Xuan, telling her that the Shao family's eldest wife was safe and sound.
Qiao Xuan thanked him with a smile, feeling a little relieved.
She and Shao Yunduan will be away from home for a long time this time, so it's good that the family is stable.
Nine days passed in a flash, and Le Zhengxiao helped lead people to pick up Shao Yunduan.
Qiao Xuan also went, but the carriage stopped at the street corner some distance away from the examination hall and did not go directly there.
Can't get through either.
There are too many people and too many cars, and it’s extremely congested.
The eldest lady had already told her to wait in the car and let Le Zhengxiao bring people to pick her up. She, a woman, should not squeeze into such a crowded place.
It would be bad if something unexpected happened.
Shao Yunduan has always paid great attention to physical exercise. When he is at home, he often works in the fields and goes into the mountains, so he has always been in good health.
Even so, after staying there for nine days and nine nights, he looked haggard when he came out, with dark circles around his eyes and a very pale face.
He was still relatively good. At least when he saw Le Zhengxiao and Song Shi, he could stand steadily, greet Le Zhengxiao with a smile, and chat with him for a few words.
Many people could no longer hold on when they came out and saw their brothers, family members or servants. Their legs went weak and they almost fell down.
There were also twenty or thirty people who could not even finish the exam. They were either carried or half-supported and half-dragged out of the examination room.
"Husband!" Qiao Xuan was waiting anxiously, looking from afar. When she saw him, her eyes lit up and she waved at him and called out loudly.
Shao Yunduan raised his head and looked at her, a smile spread in his eyes, his expression became involuntarily gentle, and he waved at her.
Qiao Xuan got off the carriage and walked forward happily, "Thank God, it's finally over! Let's go home!"
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, ma'am!"
"It's not hard, it's not hard! You are the one who is working hard!"
"Well, it's okay actually. I'm not tired at all."
Le Zhengxiao touched his nose and suddenly felt as if he was a little redundant.
He coughed, cleared his throat, and smiled appropriately: "You two, there is another me here."
