Chapter 669: People are just keeping a low profile
Anyway, she has no shortage of money and can earn it again in the future, so there is no need to be reluctant to give it up.
Seeing Qiao Xuan's brilliant smile, Shao Yunduan felt extremely happy, even happier than the moment he learned that he had won the first place in the imperial examination!
Shao Yunduan nodded, a smile on his lips: "I am, from now on you are the wife of the top scholar!"
Qiao Xuan's face felt slightly hot, and she suddenly felt a little embarrassed. She nodded lightly and said "hmm", but her eyes were surprisingly bright, and the corners of her lips were raised high and could not be suppressed.
Le Zhengxiao looked at this, then looked at that, and held his forehead with his hand. That bad feeling that he seemed redundant came back.
"Ahem, Brother Shao, Sister-in-law, shouldn't you guys get ready? The person who will announce the good news will be here soon, and I'm afraid there will be a lot of people coming to congratulate you today."
"Yes, yes! It's time to get ready!"
Qiao Xuan suddenly came back to her senses, asked Shao Yunduan and Le Zhengxiao to stay, and hurried away with Lixia and Liqiu.
The officials who brought the good news and the entire ceremonial team would be rewarded with silver, and the students and neighbors who came to congratulate them should prepare tea, candies, snacks, melon seeds and other snacks.
There were not many candies and melon seeds left at home, so she hurriedly sent Lixia to buy some, and asked Liqiu to go to the kitchen to boil water. Qiao Xuan prepared tea leaves and teacups.
Sure enough, in less than half an hour, the official guard of honor arrived with the good news.
At this time, the news that Shao Yunduan had passed the imperial examination had spread to all the neighbors. Naturally, Lu Min and others also knew about it, and a group of scholars came over. The yard suddenly became very lively.
Fortunately, Le Zhengxiao brought a dozen servants and maids from his house to help, so there was not much chaos.
Lu Min and Gu Zhiyou also passed the imperial examination. Gu Zhiyou was at the last place and Lu Min was in the middle, but as long as they passed, they were both very satisfied, and their congratulations to Shao Yunduan were sincere from the bottom of their hearts.
After all, they are still young, and this alone makes them luckier than many people.
Being young, there are countless possibilities in the future.
If you have the energy and time to work hard, maybe you can become a Jinshi?
The two of them had been guests at Shao Yunduan's home before, so it was okay.
The other scholars were here for the first time. When they learned that this was Shao Yunduan's own house, they were all surprised and shocked.
Some people were originally not convinced, or thought that they came from wealthy families and looked down on Shao Yunduan for being poor - after all, Shao Yunduan's several gatherings with them did not cost much and his clothes were very ordinary. Now they have lost their arrogance.
Could it be that someone who could buy such a big house in the provincial capital and have such a good relationship with the son of the Lezheng family is from an ordinary family with ordinary financial resources?
He is just low-key and doesn't like to show off.
Think about yourself, then look at others, why do you suddenly feel ashamed? ?
Among them, the most surprised were the scholars who came from Heshan County to take part in the autumn examination.
They knew something about Shao Yunduan, and were shocked to see this. They simply couldn't believe it!
When did the Shao family become so rich?
Yes, I forgot to mention that Shao Yunduan is the son-in-law of the county magistrate of Heshan County, and his wife is the daughter of Mr. Qiao, so it seems reasonable that he has money.
So it seems that the relationship between Shao Yunduan and Mr. Qiao, the father-in-law and son-in-law, is not as rumored.
Shao Yunduan and Qiao Xuan didn't like hearing this.
