But no matter how long I waited, there was no sign of anyone.
It’s okay for other people, but the elderly and children are the ones who can’t stand hunger the most.
In the end, I had no choice but to eat something at home and continue waiting.
And then I waited until now.
Finally seeing the eldest brother and his family of three coming back, Mrs. Ye’s first reaction was that she was lucky she had eaten before, otherwise she would not have been able to hold on until now.
As soon as Mrs. Ye entered the room, before the adults could say anything, Ye Changnian couldn't wait to ask, "Auntie, what place did you get in the exam?"
He thought that Mrs. Ye went to the palace just like a teacher in a private school tested everyone's knowledge!
But no one in the family laughed at his statement. Instead, they all stared at Mrs. Ye, waiting for her answer.
Qingtian hurried over and couldn't wait to announce on behalf of Mrs. Ye: "My mother is third!"
The room instantly became lively.
"Third place, it's actually third place!" Old Mrs. Ye clasped her hands together and kept muttering to herself, thanking the Bodhisattva for the blessings, thanking the ancestors for the blessings, and thanking Old Man Ye for the blessings.

Old Mrs. Ye held Mrs. Ye's hand and rubbed it constantly, but she could not say anything except the word "good".
"Boss, go book a restaurant quickly and notify the Qingshan family. We have to celebrate with your wife tonight."
"Mom, don't worry about this." Sister Ye quickly stopped her, "Mr. Cen has already agreed with Chef Dong to book Qionghualou.
"Tonight he's not only inviting our family but also his old friends to announce the news of my father's return.
“I should have treated you to a meal and told you about my father’s return.
“Originally, I had planned to bring my father back to the village to visit you after the cooking competition!
“Who knew that before we could even go back, everyone had already come into the city.
