Chapter 279: Parade of the Top Scholar



Feeling that the time was almost up, Han Xiao handed the already asleep Chaochao to the wet nurse and asked her to stay at home with Chaochao.

It was estimated that Han Mingyuan should have left the palace by now. Han Mingyuan, the top scorer in the imperial examination, was paraded through the streets by the emperor, which would surely have caused a sensation in the capital.

As the son of the top scholar, Han Xiao would definitely not be absent.

He wanted to take the young master to the street early to wait for Han Mingyuan.

But now he has to go find Han's mother first. Based on Han Xiao's understanding of his mother, she must still be struggling with whether to go or not.

Sure enough, when they found Han's mother, she was sitting in the main hall in a daze, with her facial expression changing constantly.

Han Xiao took the young master to Han's mother and said, "Mom, we should go, otherwise Dad will be back soon."

"Then I won't go..." Han's mother said in embarrassment.

She still felt that she couldn't go and embarrass Han Mingyuan.

Han Xiao frowned: "Mom, why do you think so? Dad will definitely be very happy to see you at this time. You will definitely regret it if you miss it."

After hearing this, Han's mother clenched the handkerchief tightly in her fingers. Since her son said so, she couldn't back down. At least... at least she had to let others know that she, the legal wife, was still around!

Having made up her mind, Mother Han took a deep breath and stood up: "Okay, let's go now."

"Mom, wait a minute, we can't go like this!" The young master hurriedly grabbed Han's mother, walked around her and said.

"Well, husband, go get the clothes I gave to mother before. This one is too ordinary and doesn't reflect your aura." The young master winked at Han's mother mischievously.

Han Xiao took a look and thought it seemed to be the case, so he directly ordered the maid to get it. The young master took Han's mother's hand and went to the inner room to change her clothes and do her hairstyle.

Han Xiao was left alone in the living room waiting, so bored that he was almost counting flies.

When the young master brought Han's mother out, Han Xiao's eyes widened.

Han's mother is not bad looking. She has been in a good mood in recent years. Her husband and son both spoil her, which has changed her whole spirit.

Her temperament has improved more than a little bit, and with today's gorgeous attire, no one would doubt that she is a wealthy lady.

Han's mother said a little uncomfortably, "Is it okay for me to dress like this? Isn't it too conspicuous?"

The young master adjusted the jewelry on Han's mother's body and said in a sweet voice: "That's too flashy. Mother, you were too low-key before. This is how we should dress."

On weekdays, Han's mother's dressing style is mainly based on comfort and convenience. Even during the Chinese New Year, she never dresses so formally.

The young master sent this dress to Han's mother a long time ago, but Han's mother thought it was too gorgeous, so she kept it in the bottom of the box.

"Yes, mother, this is good." Han Xiao agreed.

He had never seen his mother like this before. It seemed that all the members of the Han family had the same problem, which was that they didn't care about dressing up.

Han Xiao was fine. Ever since he married the young master, all his clothes had been bought by the young master himself.

Han's mother and Han Mingyuan just wore whatever they wanted and didn't care.

After hearing what her son and daughter-in-law said, Han's mother responded: "Okay, then let's go quickly, otherwise we will be late."

Seeing Han's mother's anxious look, the young master secretly made an expression towards Han Xiao, you see, mom still wants to go see dad.

Han Xiao nodded, followed behind Han's mother, and diligently acted as a "bodyguard".

Today, he is not only the son of the top scholar, but also his mother's bodyguard. He wants to see if there is any blind little devil who wants to get close to his father.

The group did not take a carriage. Han Mingyuan would have to pass by here anyway during his parade, so they simply went to Zhuque Avenue in the city.

Many people were rushing there along the way, and from time to time they were talking about the new top scorer, the third place, and the second place.

Han Xiao had never heard of the names of the third and second place winners, because he never cared about such matters.

The young master seemed to be listening to the passersby with great interest, even poking his little head out to get closer to hear the gossip.

When they soon arrived at Zhuque Avenue, it was packed with people. The place was so crowded that even Han Xiao, a 1.85-meter-tall man, found it difficult to squeeze in.

After trying several times without success, Han Xiao decided to use his "money power". Anyone who stood in front of him would be handed a silver note by Han Xiao.

Seeing this, Han's mother was distressed and wanted to stop Han Xiao, but Han Xiao just said nonchalantly: "Don't worry, Mom, we don't have much, but we have a lot of money."

The man who had just received a silver note from Han Xiao turned around immediately after hearing what Han Xiao said, and then looked at the silver note in his hand and thought hatefully: Damn rich people, damn capitalists.

Han Xiao used his "money power" to quickly squeeze to the front with Han's mother and the young master.

At this time, Han Mingyuan and the others had not arrived yet. Han Xiao looked around and found that the second floors of the shops on both sides of the street were crowded with people.

And they were all young ladies and gentlemen. Han Xiao immediately understood what these unmarried ladies and gentlemen were thinking.

They just want to try their luck. What if the top three scorers take a fancy to them?

Han Xiao chuckled softly and pulled the young master into his arms to prevent anyone from crowding him.

The young master was watching happily when he was suddenly startled by Han Xiao's action.

Hiding in Han Xiao's arms, she patted her chest and said, "Oh, my husband, you scared me to death. I thought you were a bad guy."

The young master wrinkled his nose and glared at Han Xiao coquettishly.

Han Xiao's heart skipped a beat when he was stared at. He wanted to scold the young master, but his Adam's apple moved and he whispered in the young master's ear: "Really?

When the warm breath sprayed on the young master's sensitive nipples, his ears turned red.

The young master was startled by Han Xiao's deliberately lowered voice. When he came to his senses, his face turned red. He looked around and luckily no one noticed them.

The young master stretched out his little hand and pressed against Han Xiao's chest and whispered, "Husband...Husband, please let me go. These are all human beings. It would be bad if others saw us."

After saying this, he glanced at Han's mother cautiously.

Han's mother was now concentrating on looking in the direction Han Mingyuan was coming from and didn't pay any attention to them at all.

Han Xiao chuckled and stopped teasing the young master, instead putting his arm around his waist.

The young master breathed a sigh of relief, and his spirits began to cheer up again. He took out several handkerchiefs from his arms and handed them to Han's mother: "Mom, when Dad comes over later, you can throw the handkerchiefs to him."

The young master read all these from the storybooks, and he noticed that the ladies on the second floor also prepared handkerchiefs and flowers.
