Chapter 742: Everything has its own destiny
Su Laowu bowed and said, "Su, I will borrow Zhou and Zhou Jieyuan's auspicious words!"
Su Laowu paused and changed Zhou Juren to Zhou Jieyuan.
When Mr. Zhou heard someone call him Jieyuan again, he almost burst into tears.
As he became more and more unlucky over the years, no one called him Jieyuan anymore except himself!
Because the previous top scorer in the Jieyuan exam was said to be unlucky and his fate was tainted by the word Jieyuan.
As a result, among all the top scorers in Qingzhou Prefecture in recent years, none of them made it into the top three when they took part in the spring examination!
As a result, no one in the entire Qingzhou Prefecture called him Zhou Jieyuan anymore.
Those who give him face call him Mr. Zhou, and those who don’t give him face call him Zhou Dame!
"Don't worry, little brother. When I become rich in the future, I will definitely take care of you!" Mr. Zhou said confidently.
Su Laowu smiled slightly and said, "Zhou Jieyuan, please sign the contract first."
Mr. Zhou's eyes fell on the word "ten years" on the contract, and he finally realized that his words were too exaggerated.
I'm afraid that others have already risen to prominence while I'm still teaching.
Mr. Zhou repeatedly praised Su Laowu's good handwriting, which naturally attracted the attention of the Empress Dowager and others.
The Empress Dowager came from a prominent family, so she could naturally judge the quality of calligraphy.
Now after reading Su Laowu's calligraphy, he couldn't help but nod secretly.
Good looks, good character, and good handwriting!
Even if he has poor academic knowledge, with his beautiful handwriting, I can help him pass the imperial examination!
The Empress Dowager decided that even if Su Laowu's knowledge was a mess, she would use the back door to help Su Laowu get a good ranking!
As for the previous idea of hanging the tail of the car, it has now become hanging the front of the car!
After all, I have the confidence of my good handwriting!
In this way, she can act in a justifiable manner!
Madam Xia had no idea what the Empress Dowager was thinking. She attached great importance to the fact that Su Laowu had won the first place in the case.
After all, Su Laowu has his eyes on Her Royal Highness the Princess.
If you can get the first place in a case, your status will also rise, right?
"Master, may I ask if my nephew can win the first place in the case this time?" Mrs. Xia looked at Master Zhiku and asked.
When Madam Xia asked this, everyone looked at Master Zhiku.
Tang Bao also looked at Master Zhi Ku with eager eyes.
Although she felt that her fifth brother was well-educated, the imperial examinations were not only about academic knowledge, but also about luck.
After listening to what Madam Xia said, Master Zhiku looked at Su Laowu carefully for a moment.
Then, he put his hands together and chanted the Buddha's name.
"The Buddha said: It cannot be said...it cannot be said..."
Everyone: “…”
They looked at each other, feeling a little disappointed.
No one is a fool.
As soon as Master Zhiku saw the Queen Mother, he took the initiative to tell her that this time the Queen Mother would get what she wished for.
He also made no secret of Mr. Zhou's bad luck.
Only when it comes to Su Laowu, he becomes mysterious and profound.
What this means is anyone's guess.
Su Laowu was very calm.
There is always someone better than you, and there are plenty of people who are more talented than him!
"Then, can I get into high school?" Mrs. Xia was a little anxious.
Although, she should ask how her son is doing, but now, she is more worried about Su Laowu.
If Su Laowu can't even pass the imperial examination, then his relationship with the princess will be ruined.
The royal princess is so precious, she can't marry a scholar no matter what, right?
Master Zhiku clasped his hands together again and said the same words.
"The Buddha said: It cannot be said...it cannot be said..."
Madam Xia: “…”
I feel a chill in my heart!
Mrs. Xia was originally very confident that Su Laowu would pass the high school entrance examination.
If it weren't for the incident involving Princess Huaning, she wouldn't have asked Master Zhiku.
Now, what I wanted to feel at ease has turned into anxiety.
The Empress Dowager became more and more convinced that Su Laowu was only good at handwriting and his knowledge was not that good at all.
After all, I’m afraid I can’t even pass the imperial examination!
Xia Siya couldn't help but said, "Master, please stop being so mysterious. If you've figured it out, just tell me! My fifth brother is a brilliant scholar, and with my sister Fuya's blessing, he's incredibly lucky too. There's no way he'll fail the exam, unless something unexpected happens!"
Xia Siya's words expressed Mrs. Xia's thoughts.
Master Zhiku said, "Don't worry, benefactor. I'm not being mysterious. Although there are uncertainties, everything has its own destiny. Just be at ease."
Xia Siya: “…”
It would be strange if she could feel at ease!
Xia Siya looked at Tang Bao.
"Sister Fuya?"
"Don't worry, Sister Siya, Fifth Brother will definitely be admitted to high school!" Tang Bao said with certainty: "From now on, I will say this a hundred or eighty times a day!"
I don’t believe that God can’t hear me!
"Yes, yes, I'll say it with you!" Xia Siya nodded repeatedly.
Seeing this, Su Laowu felt both heartwarming and amused.
Princess Huaning opened her mouth, blushing, and mustered up the courage to say, "I'll say it with you too!"
Although she was shy, her tone was firm.
After saying that, he glanced quickly at Su Laowu.
Tang Bao and Xia Siya looked at Princess Huaning together.
"Okay!" they said in unison.
Su Laowu's eyes flashed, and he finally looked at Princess Huaning.
Since you are here to burn incense, you naturally have to donate some money.
The Empress Dowager waved her hand and generously donated two thousand taels of silver.
Mrs. Xia also donated two hundred taels of silver.
Tang Bao thought about it and donated twenty taels of silver according to his generation, removing one zero.
Several people donated so much money, and naturally they got a sumptuous vegetarian meal in return.
Tang Bao looked at the table full of chicken, duck, fish and meat cooked with tofu, and couldn't help but think of the fake vegetarian food she had eaten.
Sure enough, there is a difference between true and false.
No matter how similar the fake ones are, you can tell them apart immediately by comparing them.
Tang Bao doesn’t know it yet, but when she eats the vegetarian food from Tianlong Temple in Beijing, she will find that if the fake food reaches a certain level, it can be mistaken for the real thing!
After the meal, Tang Bao took advantage of the opportunity and whispered to Princess Huaning, "Sister Ning, I heard there's a sweet osmanthus forest in the back mountain. I'm going to go find my fifth brother and ask him to go with me to the forest to seek a good omen."
After saying that, he winked at Princess Huaning.
Princess Huaning: “…”
Naturally, I understand what Tangbao means.
I couldn't help but blush.
He nodded almost imperceptibly.
Tang Bao went to find Su Laowu with a smile.
Su Laowu, Lin Enyi and others had just finished their meal.
"Fifth brother, I heard from a young monk that there is a patch of sweet-scented osmanthus trees growing very well on the back mountain. Every autumn when the imperial examination comes, it attracts many students to go and pick the trees in order to pray for a good omen. Let's go and take a look." Tang Bao said with a smile.
After all, everyone wants to win the first prize!
As for what Master Zhiku said, Tang Bao thought it was just a matter of listening to it.
She just didn't believe it. Could the variables be changed beyond the control of God?
After hearing what Tang Bao said, Su Laowu smiled and said, "It's not easy for those osmanthus trees to have survived all these years!"
"Indeed!" Tang Bao nodded in agreement, feeling very sympathetic towards the osmanthus trees.
The brother and sister talked as they walked towards the back mountain.
