"I know, get some rest."
After Lu Xinzhu fell asleep, Li Yu tiptoed to see the baby who was curled up in a ball.
It’s hard to tell whether it will look good in the future, but you can tell.
It's a healthy baby, not as white as Yang Liu's daughter.
But it's not bad.
When Li Yu reached the door, he remembered that he had not informed Lin Jiang and Lu Siwei of the good news.
She planned to go by herself, and they had almost finished eating. When Lin Jiang saw Li Yu coming, he thought something had happened.
"Mom, why are you here? Is there something going on in Hsinchu?"
Li Yu rolled his eyes at him and said, "Stop talking nonsense. Your wife has given birth to the son you've been dreaming of, and you're not going to see him."
As soon as Li Yu finished speaking, Lin Jiang and Lu Siwei rushed out of the door.
Li Yu: ...
This must be the new father and uncle.
Lin Jiang's name was continued from Xiaobao's name, and it was Lin Yaoyuan.
Because Lin He's test results haven't come out yet, everyone is in low spirits.
Li Yu personally told Lu Xinzhu that the third-day baptism ceremony would not be a big deal, and when Lin He's full-moon ceremony came, he would also take part in the palace examination.
We’ll do it in a big way when the time comes.
It’s not that Li Yu doesn’t want to do it, it’s because there are third-day baptism ceremonies, full-month ceremonies, and Lin He has to treat guests after he passed the exam.
Their family had just arrived in Beijing, so it was not appropriate for them to be too ostentatious.
This is Lu Xinzhu and Lin Jiang's first child, and Li Yu doesn't want to leave any regrets in their hearts.
Unexpectedly, Li Yu hasn't told the couple yet.
Lu Xinzhu has already brought it up.
The next day, Li Yu went to see the baby, and Lu Xinzhu said to her.
"Mom, we can just keep Yuan'er's third-day baptism ceremony low-key and go through the motions."
This made Li Yu, who was originally looking down and teasing the child, look up. "What's wrong? Who whispered something in your ear?"
"No, mother. I was thinking that since we just arrived in the capital, it's better not to be too loud. My aunt just got married, and my brother-in-law's results are about to come out.
Needless to say, his grades must be very good, and we should hold a ceremony. Yuan'er will take advantage of his uncle's influence and hold a grand full moon ceremony."
To be honest, Li Yu didn't expect that she would take the initiative to bring it up.
"Do you really think so? Don't tell me Lin Jiang asked you to say that."
Lu Xinzhu smiled and said, "Mom, don't worry. I suggested it myself. Lin Jiang hasn't thought of this yet."
"Okay then, I'll accept your favor. Don't worry, when the baby's full moon ceremony comes, I'll definitely hold a grand ceremony and won't let the little one down."
Li Yu's words comforted Lu Xinzhu, "Then I'll thank mother on behalf of Yuan'er first."
After this matter was resolved, the family began to wait for Lin He's results.
On the day when the results were announced, Lin Jiang went to the entrance of the Imperial Examination Hall early in the morning to wait for news.
"Second brother is really something. We'll know sooner or later. Why bother making a trip?"
Lin He said he was disgusted, but he was very happy in his heart, which could be seen from the upturned corners of his mouth. Of course, he was also nervous.
Others might not be able to notice it, but Li Yu and Lin Hai, his acquaintances, could tell he was nervous at first sight.
You can tell from his clenched fists.
Today is his big day, and everyone knows it in their hearts, and they all tacitly don't say it out loud.
Lin Mei also came back today. Yu Shan sent her here in the morning and then went to work.
As it was getting closer to noon, everyone was getting a little anxious.
"Madam, Madam, the Third Master passed the imperial examination and ranked third."
Third place! Among so many candidates across the country, Lin He is third.
Li Yu was so happy that he didn't know what to say. He jumped up and said, "Lin He, son! You got third place."
Lin He breathed a sigh of relief. Seeing his mother happy, he was also happy, "Yes, Mom, I'm third."
Li Yu, Lin He, and Lin Mei were chattering non-stop in the hall.
Lin Hai acted like an older brother. Although he was happy for his younger brother, there would definitely be a lot of people coming to visit him.
Then they started giving out rewards.
Yang Liu stood up first and said to Xiao Yan, "Go tell Uncle He and the accountant that all the servants in the house will receive an extra month's salary this month."
"Thank you, grandma."
Xiaoyan left happily.
Li Yu was happy for a while, then he thought of Lin Jiang, "By the way, where is your second brother?"
"It must be because there were too many people blocking the entrance to the Imperial Examination Hall, so they sent word first, asking Xiaoyan to come back and report the news."
Lin He guessed correctly, Lin Jiang was indeed trapped at the gate of the Imperial Examination Hall.
Some are moving forward, some are moving out, and some are crying and laughing.
There were so many people there, and he couldn't get out for a while because he wanted to see Lu Siwei's results.
It was almost dinner time when he got home. "Why is it so late? Are there so many people here? By the way, how is my brother in Hsinchu?"
In fact, Li Yu had never been to the scene and really didn't know.
"There were so many people that I couldn't even move. But my eldest brother-in-law also passed the exam and ranked 76th."
