Of course, his calmness was only superficial.
There are still many ripples in his heart.
It was like a gust of wind blew across the surface of the lake, creating ripples.
In order to take part in the imperial examination in the capital, he rented a house to live in.
Recently, his house has been visited by many visitors!
Many wealthy and powerful people and prominent families came to visit him and tried to build relationships with him.
Although he was only fifteen years old, he had read quite a few books over the years, especially the "Art of War" that his father used to read frequently, which gave him great inspiration.
My father said that the book was bought by my grandmother.
Later, it was passed on to him.
He's fine, just take a look.
I learned a lot from it.
Now, faced with so many people trying to establish connections with him, he used the inspiration he gained from them to deal with them one by one without offending anyone.
This is critical.
In the capital, if you offend any wealthy and powerful noble, you will get into big trouble.
Especially someone like him who hasn't established himself yet.
Therefore, he would not offend anyone if he could avoid it.
Moreover, the scale is well controlled!
After coming into contact with him, many people found it hard to imagine that this boy was only fifteen years old.
Because he knows too well how to deal with people.
He is completely different in front of his family and in front of outsiders.
In front of his family, he is more like a good kid, very obedient, and seems easy to control.
However, in front of outsiders, he showed a completely different face. He suppressed all his emotions so that others could not see what he was thinking.
This day.
There was a knock on the door of his house.
He thought that it was another visit from those wealthy, noble, and prominent families.
As a result, when he opened the door and saw the person coming in, it was a woman with a graceful figure and gorgeous clothes. He couldn't help but open his eyes wide and was surprised: "Mom?"
Lu Qingyan smiled slightly, looking at her son whom she hadn't seen for a long time, her eyes shimmering with excitement. She said, "I've been doing business in Beijing recently, and when I heard you lived here, I came to see you."
As I said this, I wanted to hug my son, but suddenly I realized that my son had grown into a little adult, and it would be a bit inappropriate to hug him.
So, she suppressed some of her impulses and said with joy, "Yang'er, congratulations! You are now the top scholar in Daxu. That's amazing. I am proud of you."
As she spoke, tears rolled down her eyes...
Perhaps, the thing she is most proud of in her life is Yang'er.
Unfortunately, it was not her who accompanied Yang'er in his growth.
This is also what she regrets most.
Seeing his mother, Yang'er was surprised and excited. He hurriedly invited her into the house, made tea for her, and said, "Mom, I never thought I would see you in the capital. Yang'er is very happy!"
In fact, Lu Qingyan had come to Beijing a long time ago, but in order not to affect her son's exams, she never came to see him.
Now that the palace examination is over and the list is out, she no longer has to worry about the impact.
She took the tea her son had brewed for her, took a sip, sighed, and said, "Yang'er, I never thought you could achieve what you have today."
Countless memories of Yang'er's childhood flashed through her mind. "I used to think that we would be confined to a remote corner of the mountains for the rest of our lives, just like the people around us, never able to leave the confines of Jingliu County. At best, our lives would be only slightly better than theirs..."
More than ten years ago, she really couldn't imagine what was happening now.
However, now, all of this is so real.
It's right there in front of you, within reach.
"Fortunately, you're not with me."
She sighed and said, "If you had followed me all along, perhaps you wouldn't have achieved what you have today. Your father did a great job. Looking back now, perhaps the best thing I did was hand you over to him."
This is also what she admires and recognizes most about Cai Junze now...
Well, he finally acts like a father.
And I...
But not like a mother...
It's never like...
