When Xu Wenwu received the notice, he felt very calm.
Xiaowu shouted excitedly: "My elder brother passed the exam! Haha."
The brothers hugged each other happily at this time, proud of their eldest brother.
Some of the other teachers and students in the academy were happy for him, while others were jealous.
"Wenwu, hurry home and get back before the officers and soldiers who report the good news! The carriage has been arranged." Master Sun said.
Xu Wenwu nodded and followed Master Sun out.
Xiao Wu shouted, "Master, can I take a day off? I want to go back too."
Master Sun was happy and agreed, saying, "Let's have a day off today!"
Xiaowu jumped up happily. His brothers quickly packed their school bags and followed Master Sun out of the academy gate, only to find that the dean was also sitting in the carriage.
The dean had calmed down by now.
"Hello, Dean!"
The dean nodded happily: "Great, great! Wenwu, I'm here to congratulate you! You are the most outstanding student I have ever met."
Xu Wenwu said, "Dean, I am where I am today because of the careful teaching of the dean and the teacher. They have taken good care of me. I am deeply grateful."
The dean nodded and said, "Okay, okay! Wenwu, you are a good child. I'm afraid the academy won't be able to teach you anything in the future. Your horizons should not be limited to a small place like Huamen Town."
Xu Wenwu said: "Students understand that no matter where Wenwu goes, he will never forget the academy's cultivation of Wenwu."
The dean said, "Wenwu, no matter what happens in the future, you must stick to your original intention. It is better to live in poverty with integrity than to be swayed by fame, wealth or money."
Xu Wenwu bowed again and said, "Dean taught me, and I will remember it in my heart."
"Xuedong! No matter how you perform this time, don't be discouraged. Your knowledge is still very excellent and you still have a chance," said the dean.
Qian Xuedong said, "Don't worry, Dean. Even if I don't pass this time, I will work harder and strive to get good results next time."
The dean nodded in satisfaction and said, "I'm glad you think so."
Everyone rode their horses all the way towards Xujia Village.
When the old man saw his grandchildren, the dean, and Master Sun, he asked in confusion, "Dean, Master Sun, why are you here? Please come in!"
The dean laughed and said, "It seems that you haven't received the news yet, old man!"
"What's the news?" the old man asked. Then, seeing the village chief's smiling face, his mind suddenly flashed, and he excitedly said, "Could it be that Wenwu passed the exam?"
The dean touched Hu Dianzi's head and said, "You have a good grandson!"
"Gah!" After hearing the confirmation, the old man fell straight back.
"grandfather!"
"grandfather!"
Xu Wenwu and his brothers were startled and rushed forward to help.
"What's going on?"
The people in the house heard the noise! All the Xu family members came out.
Uncle Xu and his brothers were startled and didn't care why the dean and Master Sun came. They hurried to help support the old man.
The old man recovered after a long time and shouted, "Our Wenwu passed the exam!"
"What!" The Xu family was all stunned.
Xiao Wu said, "Grandma, Mom and Dad, Uncle, Aunt, Third Uncle and Third Aunt, my eldest brother has passed the imperial examination and even got third place in the imperial examination. The officials will be coming to our house soon to announce the good news!"
The old man was so excited that his hands were shaking as he shouted, "Boss, get the firecrackers! Old lady, hurry up and wrap some red envelopes, and remember to wrap plenty!"
Wang agreed repeatedly: "Yes! Yes! I'll go right away!" She ran very fast! She didn't look like an elderly person at all.
"Haha! My son passed the imperial examination and became a juren! Hahaha!" Uncle Xu laughed foolishly.
"Sister-in-law, congratulations! You passed the civil and military exams!" Li and Lin were also very happy and surrounded Zhang to congratulate her.
"Good job, nephew!" Uncle Xu patted Xu Wenwu on the shoulder and said happily.
"Young Master, you passed the exam! That's great!" Uncle Fu clapped his hands happily.
At this time, Zhang's head was buzzing and tears were falling. She was very happy.
"Don't just stand there like idiots. Get ready. We'll be welcoming the people who are here to share the good news soon," the old man said excitedly.
"Yes! Dad!"
The Xu family was busy for a while. The old man placed firecrackers at the entrance of the village and started setting them off as soon as he saw the officials.
The villagers were also alarmed and asked hurriedly, "Uncle Xu, what's going on? Why are they suddenly setting off firecrackers?"
The old man bared his teeth and said, "My family has passed the civil and military examinations. The officials will be here soon to announce the good news!"
"What! Uncle, is this true?"
“It’s true!”
As soon as the old man finished speaking, this man was even more excited than the old man. He ran all the way and shouted: "Everyone! Wenwu passed the exam!"
Suddenly the whole village was in an uproar. Even Master He in the academy heard the noise. When he heard that Xu Wenwu had passed the imperial examination, he hurriedly brought the children in the academy out to see.
Even Old Man Lin and Madam Sun were so happy when they heard the news that their hands were shaking with joy. They said, "Wenwu is a promising child. My brother-in-law must be very happy. Old woman, let's go and share in his joy!"
Sun said, "We're leaving, but there are still people in this winery!"
Old Man Lin said, "Call everyone. This is a good thing for Xujia Village. Let's welcome the officers and soldiers who are here to bring us good news."
Sun said, "Okay, I'll go talk to everyone right away."
"Here they come, here they come!" At this time, the entrance of Xujia Village was full of people. Someone saw it with sharp eyes and shouted.
"Boss, set off the firecrackers!" The old man waved his hand and shouted in a very arrogant manner.
