After hearing this, the old lady's anger subsided considerably, and she reached out and patted Zou Wanqing's head.
“Wanqing, your grandmother knows you are doing this for the good of the Marquis’s family, but you can’t do that next time. Your father is an official of the imperial court. If you get older and someone finds something to use against you, your father’s position will be in jeopardy.”
"Do you know?"
Although Zou Wanqing was dissatisfied, she still nodded and obeyed.
She is still young and needs someone to protect her.
The Zhenbei Marquis's family is the best choice.
At least, they are the biological parents of this body.
The Marquis of Zhenbei felt very uncomfortable, but considering that Zou Wanqing possessed advanced ideas dating back thousands of years, he dared not blame her anymore.
"Grandmother, what should we do now? The Marquis's mansion has no money, and we will starve to death."
"Father, why don't we sell the land? It's pretty useless anyway."
"To die with money, or to live without money, are both of the most foolish things humans can do."
Zou Wanqing's words undoubtedly accelerated the wavering of the Marquis of Zhenbei's heart.
He never dared to take it out because he was afraid that if the collateral branches found out, they would come to settle accounts.
Now that Zou Wanqing has said that, he feels it's time to bring it out.
Anyway, once Shixuan passes the imperial examination, he can redeem him again; it's the same principle.
"Wanqing, you're right. The problem we need to solve to survive is our livelihood."
"Once Father is feeling better, he will sell the land. For now, you will have to make do."
Upon hearing this, Zou Shuang'er burst into tears of joy.
As long as she doesn't suffer, it's fine; the old man still cares for his daughter after all.
Soon, the results were released.
That day, Ye Lanyin and her family washed up early, ready to check the list of successful candidates.
"Big brother, hurry up."
Lin Chang'an impatiently pulled Lin Rui'an along, afraid that they wouldn't be able to squeeze in if there were too many people.
Lin Rui'an smiled faintly and walked forward at a leisurely pace.
Ye Lanyin followed behind, carrying Lin Wanwan in her arms.
"Chang'an, look how anxious you are. Anyone who didn't know better would think you were on an imperial examination."
Lin Chang'an chuckled sheepishly, "Mother, your son is neither good at literature nor martial arts, how can he compare to my elder brother?"
"Hurry up, hurry up."
He pushed Lin Rui'an toward the door.
Seeing this, Ye Lanyin smiled and shook her head.
Although I dare not have too many expectations for my son, for fear of hurting him.
But which mother doesn't hope her son will become a dragon and have a bright future?
She has seen her eldest son's hard work these days.
Even after passing the imperial examination, Lin Rui'an did not slack off and continued to study non-stop.
A few days ago, ever since the Regent brought the Grand Tutor's study materials, he has been studying diligently by lamplight every day.
"The Regent?"
As Lin Chang'an stepped out the door, he exclaimed in surprise, "Father~ Regent, what are you doing here?"
The Regent stood by the carriage with a faint smile, waving to the group.
"I'm free today, and I was just thinking of checking the list of candidates for the imperial examinations. How about we go together?"
Ye Lanyin stood not far away, feeling somewhat embarrassed.
What if people gossip about this?
The Regent said, "With Rui'an and Chang'an here, who dares to speak nonsense? I will skin them alive."
Since Ye Lanyin's divorce, he has won over many ordinary people.
The people are now eagerly anticipating their marriage.
He wouldn't tell Ye Lanyin this.
"mother."
Lin Rui'an saw through her thoughts, "If you don't go, your son won't go either."
After hearing this, the Regent glared at Mo Feng.
Mo Feng trotted over to Ye Lanyin.
"Madam Ye, I think I just saw your official. He took his carriage and went somewhere, saying the wheel was broken."
Um?
Ye Lanyin glanced at Mo Feng, then at the Regent.
What a coincidence that it happened to be bad?
"We're all neighbors, please give me some face, otherwise I won't have lunch today." Seeing that Ye Lanyin was still unwilling, Mo Feng directly started to play the victim.
“I’ve been feeling weak these past few days, and the doctor said I shouldn’t go too hungry…”
“Okay, I’ll go.” Ye Lanyin interrupted him awkwardly.
In any case, the regent's two subordinates helped her a lot.
How could she bear to let them go hungry?
The Regent secretly smiled slightly.
The group boarded the Regent's carriage one after another, and Lin Wanwan was extremely excited.
I leaned against the carriage window and sighed all the way.
Ah, this is the perspective from the prince's carriage.
[Good view, spacious location.]
[I've managed to latch onto a powerful figure.]
They soon arrived at the entrance of the examination hall, which was already packed with people.
Ye Lanyin led the children off the carriage and walked towards the east wall of the examination hall.
Hua Mei got off the carriage early and went to check the list first.
Although Lin Rui'an said he didn't care much, once he arrived here, he was influenced by all the different voices and a sense of excitement slowly welled up inside him.
"He passed the exam! He passed the exam! Thank God, my son passed the exam!"
"I passed the exam too! I passed the exam too! Waaah... Mom and Dad, I've made it! May you rest in peace in heaven."
"Ah, why isn't my name on it? I was so serious..."
"Young Master passed the exam! He passed the exam!"
"Good news! Good news!"
The various whispers reached Lin Shixuan's ears, making him extremely nervous.
What happened? Why didn't he see his own name?
He clearly finished answering all the questions.
Zou Shuang'er stood beside him and muttered, "Shixuan, how come your name isn't on the list? Are you sure you're serious?"
"Mother, your son has finished writing very carefully."
