"What kind of meat is this? Why is it still boned?"
Han Zeyu quickly responded with a clever answer: "It's duck neck!"
Su Shien nodded: "Then this duck is quite fat."
Han Zeyu blinked, his eyes full of hints: "I just wanted to give you some nourishment~ After all, I have a tough battle to fight tonight!"
Su Shien paused while drinking his porridge and suggested, "Can we play again tomorrow night? Let me adjust my condition."
Han Zeyu said in disbelief: "The tough battle I was talking about was going back to put on a show in front of the Madam. What are you thinking? I really misjudged you, bah! You stinky scoundrel!"
Su Shien coaxed in a gentle voice: "Okay, okay, I stink, I'll take a shower when I get home."
Han Zeyu immediately stopped him, saying, "No, this sharp look can't be wasted. You should go and pay your respects to the Madam first. You can put the bathing thing off for now. Anyway, there's nothing much to do tonight."
Su Shien was speechless and called him a filthy bastard. He was so wronged!
Mrs. Su Wang was eagerly waiting in the main courtyard, but she didn't expect that the first person to come and pay her respects was Su Shien, even the housekeeper was one step behind him.
The messy hair, the dazed eyes, the wrinkled coat, and the overwhelming smell...
Mrs. Su Wang wanted to take out a handkerchief to cover her mouth and nose, but that would seem inappropriate, so she had to force a smile and pretend to care.
The tone he used when asking the butler to send the eldest young master back inevitably revealed a bit of impatience.
Madam Su finally understood why Yunsong didn't come to pay his respects. That boy paid great attention to his appearance, unlike Su Shien, who had become more and more unruly since he fell in love with that country boy.
After eating, drinking and washing himself clean, Su Shien regained his favor. Han Zeyu lay on her husband's chest, moving her nose like a puppy, and sighed: "You smell so good~ I really want to eat you up in one bite."
As he said that, he really bit Su Shien's neck. Seeing that Su Shien was in pain, he switched to the other side and sucked hard.
He lowered his head to admire his masterpiece. The teeth mark on the left matched the kiss mark on the right perfectly, echoing each other. Anyone who saw it would sigh that a short separation is better than a new marriage, and they are in harmony and sweet as honey.
Alas, it’s not good for a couple to live too harmoniously, as it will easily arouse jealousy.
The candidates adjusted their states at home, and the county examiners marked the papers overnight, and the results were announced the next day.
As expected, Su Yunsong achieved the first place in the county examination. That is to say, no matter what his results were in the prefectural examination, he could directly participate in the selection for the academy examination.
Su Shien's results were in the middle. After all, he had taken the exam once, so his results couldn't be too bad.
Han Zecang's ranking was also in the middle, only slightly lower than Su Shien.
Han Zecang was ecstatic. With this result, as long as there were no problems in the provincial examination, his status as a student would be secure.
The provincial examination is the second round of the imperial examination, and it is also used to screen out better candidates and give them the opportunity to enter the final round of the examination.
When the news reached the Su Mansion, the eldest lady was ecstatic and ignored Su Shien's results. In her opinion, with such a result in his second attempt at the Autumn Examination, this person basically had no chance of becoming a scholar.
Her son Yunsong is very promising, which is worth her years of careful training and teaching.
When she thought about her son passing the imperial examination before he was fifteen, Mrs. Su Wang's eyes immediately turned red with excitement. It was really the blessing of her ancestors!
The title of scholar had not yet been obtained, and before everything was settled, Su Wangshi could not be too ostentatious, but she could not suppress the ever-increasing corners of her mouth.
It’s a pity that the master is not here at this time. His business trip seems to be taking longer than usual.
No matter how Su Shien performed in the exam, they had to do some face-saving work. Mrs. Su Wang held a family dinner in the flower hall to congratulate the two candidates on passing the county exam.
During the meal, Mrs. Su Wang kept glancing at Su Shien's collar, intentionally or unintentionally.
Although it was already late autumn, the temperature at noon was still quite high. Everyone was wearing round-necked clothes, but Young Master Su was the only one who stood out and wore a stand-up collar.
After the hot dishes were served and a little wine was drunk, Su Shien couldn't help but pull at his collar. This time, Su Wangshi finally saw it clearly and was speechless.
This couple doesn't know how to be more careful. If the teeth marks were a little higher, they would almost bite the chin.
Su Yunzhu, who was sitting on the other side, also saw the conspicuous kiss mark on the man's neck. She was almost seventeen years old and had heard some stories about matters between men and women, but this was the first time she had seen someone so bold. She blushed and lowered her head to concentrate on eating.
Su Shien turned a blind eye to the two's strange choices. What could he say? If he said he was too tired yesterday and did nothing, and just slept soundly with Yu Ge'er in his arms, would anyone believe him?
It would be more practical to eat more food, because I really have a tough battle to fight tonight...
The provincial examination had to be taken in the provincial capital, and Han Zeyu decided to go with the candidate as a family member.
Mrs. Su Wang glanced at the new mark on Su Shien's neck, closed her eyes tiredly, and waved her hand to show her agreement.
Go, go, as long as you are here, it would be a miracle for him to pass the imperial examination and become a scholar.
Han Zeyu thanked the eldest lady and happily returned to the yard to pack his bags. This was his first time traveling far away from home in this alien world, and his map was finally going to be updated.
To be honest, Su Shien has never left Qingshan County. This time, not only can he visit the state capital, but he can also go to the provincial capital to broaden his horizons when taking the college entrance examination.
The geographical records mentioned that there is a particularly famous Biyun Peak in the provincial capital. We can go hiking with Yu Ge'er there. He will definitely like it.
The couple was full of joy and didn't worry at all about failing the exam.
Han Zecang was also going to the provincial capital to take the exam, but he was traveling with his classmates from the academy. He had been a book boy for four years and had become familiar with everyone in the academy. He didn't want to stay around his eldest brother and eat dog food, which was simply insane.
Mrs. Su Wang sent them out of the house and told the coachman and servants to serve them well and to protect the young master's safety.
This sentence refers to "young master" instead of "young masters". Those who understand the art of language will understand it.
Han Zeyu pulled out a purse from his bosom and stuffed it into Su Shien's pocket, saying gratefully, "Hurry and keep it. Your purse was stolen. The eldest lady reimbursed us for half of it. I forgot to tell you before. Don't be so anxious and angry. It will affect your mood for the exam."
Su Yunsong felt a little guilty when he heard this. He wished he had stopped the car and taken a look that day.
The eldest lady was furious. She looked at the marks on Su Shien's neck. Was she anxious and angry? I think he was anxious to vent his anger!
Mrs. Su Wang clutched the handkerchief tightly and put it back into her sleeve. She took out a purse from it and handed it to Su Shien, and gently reminded him: "Poor at home, rich on the road. Take more money with you and don't let yourself suffer any loss."
After a pause, Su Wangshi reluctantly added, "And your husband."
Han Zeyu smiled and thanked the Madam, praising her sincerely, "Madam, you are such a kind person!"
