Chapter 154: Double Happiness
The old Su family was bustling with activity when the sound of gongs and drums came from afar.
Soon, the sound of gongs and drums reached the gate of the Su family.
Su Laoer was wearing a yamen runner's uniform and a big red flower on his chest. He walked towards his yard laughing.
"Hahahaha... good news... good news... make way..."
In fact, even without him shouting, people would have automatically made way for him.
After all, when a group of officials came with music and drums, who would dare not give way?
"Good news? What good news?"
"What's the happy event in the Su family?"
"Such a big event, I'm afraid it must be a big happy event..."
After people made way, they began to talk.
"Could it be... the fifth son of the Su family?" Someone suddenly remembered something and said.
One sentence reminded a group of people.
"Could it be that the fifth son of the Su family passed the imperial examination?"
"Has our village produced a scholar?"
Everyone's eyes lit up.
As soon as Su Laoer entered the yard, their guess was confirmed.
"Dad, Lao Wu passed the exam! Lao Wu passed the exam and became a scholar!" Su Lao Er shouted happily.
"I won?! Really won?!" Old man Su was so excited that he almost cried like a goose.
The Su family's yard immediately exploded!
"Old Five really passed the imperial examination!"
"Our Daliushu Village has produced a scholar!"
"The Su family is really soaring!"
"The Su family is truly remarkable! They just produced a village chief, and now they have a scholar..."
"Oh my! Oh my God! There's smoke coming out of the Su family's ancestral grave..."
"The Su family is blessed with good fortune..."
Su Laoer laughed heartily and raised the big red registration booklet in his hand.
Then, he cleared his throat and began to sing.
"...Su Wuhu from Daliushu Village, Fengwei Town...a first-class student..."
After Su Erhu finished his greeting, Old Man Su took the big red victory letter with trembling hands, his eyes filled with tears of excitement.
"Mr. Su, congratulations! Your fifth child has made it big!" said Mr. Wang with a laugh.
The village chief was also very excited.
After all, the scholar is from their Daliushu Village.
"Brother Su, congratulations, not only has your family produced a golden phoenix, but you will also have a top scholar in the future!" The village chief also laughed.
"Brother Su, congratulations, your family has a double blessing!"
"Yes, yes! Double happiness!"
…
People were shouting their congratulations. Old Man Su came back to his senses from his excitement and his feet began to feel dizzy.
"Haha... congratulations... haha..." Old man Su's face was flushed and he was laughing so hard that his teeth were showing.
Old Lady Su quickly asked her eldest son to invite several yamen runners who were reporting to the court to have tea.
He also prepared several hundred large coins as wedding gifts to give to those who registered.
"Dad, where's Lao Wu?" Su Lao Er asked, "He's become a scholar, why doesn't he come out to see people?"
"Yes, where is the scholar?" someone in the crowd asked.
"Old Five, go..."
"Master Scholar is back!
"Quickly make way for the scholar!"
Before Old Man Su could finish his words, there was a commotion at the gate of the courtyard.
Then, Su Lao Si and Su Lao Wu strode into the yard.
"father!"
"father!"
Su Laosi and Su Laowu shouted in unison.
"Fifth brother, you passed the imperial examination!" Su Xiaoliu shouted immediately.
"Old Five, good job!" Old Man Su patted his son's shoulder, "You didn't let me down!"
"Dad!" Su Laowu's eyes were bright, and his slightly gentle face was filled with the youthful vigor that is unique to young people.
Boss Su came over, patted Su Laowu on the shoulder, and said with emotion and excitement: "Laowu, not bad!"
Su Lao Er also came over, patted Su Lao Wu on the shoulder, and said proudly: "Yes! He is from our Su family!"
As an older brother, he must be so proud to be able to tell his younger brother the good news!
The yamen runners who were traveling with him must have envied him so much!
This younger brother really brings honor to me!
Seeing this, Su Xiaoliu also followed his brothers' example and reached out to pat his fifth brother's shoulder.
"Fifth brother, that's right... No, I get it!"
Su Xiaoliu suddenly screamed.
"Fifth brother, you must have passed the exam because you held your sister in your arms all day, right?"
Following Su Xiaoliu's words, everyone's attention shifted to Xiao Tangbao.
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
Can't you just let me keep a low profile for a while?
"Sixth brother is wrong. Fifth brother was able to pass the exam because he is well educated."
Xiao Tangbao immediately spoke up for his fifth brother.
"Xiaoliu, don't talk nonsense! Your sister is right. Your fifth brother was able to pass the exam because he is very capable." Old man Su immediately scolded Su Xiaoliu.
Su Xiaoliu touched his head and said, "...Oh."
I still think it’s because my fifth brother held my sister in his arms all day.
Moreover, his father didn’t say that at the time. He insisted that the fifth brother hold his sister.
On the day fifth brother came back, dad didn't let anyone else hold my sister. It was always fifth brother who held her.
Da Pan and Er Pan secretly tugged at Su Xiaoliu's sleeves.
"Uncle, you can't tell me. You can't let anyone know." Da Pan said in a low voice.
Er Pan nodded in agreement, "If people knew that if you hold the little aunt, you can win the title of scholar, what would you do if they all came to steal the little aunt?"
Su Xiaoliu, “…”
Yes, he actually forgot.
Su Laosi slapped Su Xiaoliu calmly.
This younger brother is a little stupid and is not as good as his two nephews.
At this time, people congratulated the new scholar Su Wuhu.
It seemed as if being able to speak a word to the scholar was an honor.
Su Lao Er looked at the people in the yard and asked curiously, "Dad, why are there so many people at our house today?"
Could it be that he knew the news in advance and knew that Lao Wu won, so he came to congratulate him?
When Er Pan heard this, he immediately said with a look of pride: "Dad, you don't know yet? My aunt is the village chief!"
"What? My sister is the village chief?!" Su Laoer's eyes lit up immediately, "Sister, come on! Give me a hug!"
Su Laoer’s first reaction was to hug his sister.
As for why his sister suddenly became the village chief, he was not curious at all.
Anyway, no matter what good things happen to my sister, it's all natural.
Qian Yuemei said with a smile on her face: "Dad, I have already held it for you. You have already received the blessing of my aunt."
Su Erhu, "..."
I don't quite understand what it means.
He simply wanted to hug his sister.
So, little Tangbao was taken away by his second brother again.
"Sister, do you miss your second brother?" Su Laoer asked.
"I miss my second brother." Little Tangbao said sweetly.
This time it's the truth.
Su Erhu has been working in the government office these days and has not come back. Xiao Tangbao still misses his second brother very much.
"Hehe, second brother misses you too." Su Erhu said happily.
See, he knew that his sister would definitely miss him.
After saying that, he suddenly remembered that he had forgotten to bring back many of the little gadgets he had bought for his sister.
"Sister, your second brother bought you a lot of fun things. I came back in a hurry this time and didn't bring any back. Next time your second brother comes back, I will definitely bring them back for you!" Su Erhu said hurriedly.
Er Pan asked expectantly, "Dad, where's mine?"
"No! How can a kid like you compare to your aunt?" Su Erhu said as a matter of course: "Wait until your aunt gets tired of playing, then you and your brother can play with it."
"Yeah!" Er Pan nodded happily, "Aunt, when you don't like it anymore, my brother and I will play again."
Little Sugar Baby, "..."
How on earth did she manage to stay healthy in such an environment?
