You know, he studied hard for ten years for this one test, and he has already achieved the best score. It's a bit abnormal that he's so calm. He shouldn't be as happy as Fan Jin when he passed the imperial examination!
Xiao Yang rolled his eyes, a rare occurrence for him.
"Sister, isn't it only right that I became the top scholar? It was destined to be so, why get so excited!"
Song Yan'er...
That confidence is unmatched!
But honestly, it seems like I've hardly ever seen Xiao Yang read any books. It's really enviable that he managed to get into high school!
Having a sharp mind is a real advantage!
I can't compare to them in this respect. After all, I get a headache just looking at those classical Chinese texts, while they have to memorize so much!
"You're the top scholar, so you're right! Top scholar Xiao, put me down! We're going home! Your whole family is waiting for you, especially your father-in-law, he's so excited he hasn't slept all night!"
Song Yan'er could really understand Song Dahai. Since his ancestors were all farmers, he felt incredibly lucky to have a son-in-law who was a top scholar. He even specially brought back a Buddha statue from a nearby temple and worshipped it every day!
Last night I casually said, "Mr. Song, you'll soon be the father-in-law of the top scholar. What are your thoughts on that?"
Song Dahai looked at Song Yan'er excitedly: "Xiao Yang said, are you confident?"
Song Yan'er smiled proudly:
"Absolutely! Otherwise, how could I face the fact that I rescued him from the mountainside? I have such good judgment!"
Whether Song Dahai listened to what she said afterward or not, Song Yan'er didn't know. She only knew that Song Dahai remembered the first half of her sentence: that Xiao Yang was confident of becoming the top scholar!
So in the morning, Song's mother told her that Song Dahai was so happy that he didn't sleep all night and got up early to see her off to the exam. If Song Yan'er hadn't stopped him, he probably would have taken her all the way to the palace gate!
When Xiao Yang heard Song Yan'er talk about her father-in-law, he found it very endearing, since she had been so kind to him from the very beginning when she heard that he was a scholar!
"Well, thankfully, I'm still sharp-witted and haven't let you down! Yan'er, I'm so lucky to know you and your family!"
Song Dahai and his wife truly treated him like their own son, and Xiao Yang could feel it!
The maternal love that Bai Yang didn't feel was fully experienced in Song's mother!
Song Yan'er...
I know, I don't want to discourage you, but really, do you have to say it every day?
"Alright, I know. I like you a lot too, and I'm very lucky to have met you. Let's go!"
Xiao Yang looked at Song Yan'er with a doting expression!
Oh well, she lives such a good life, how could she possibly understand my feelings!
Although the Emperor later told General Xiao the truth about how he was abandoned in Peach Blossom Village, how could anyone else understand how he felt back then!
It's fair to say that without Song Yan'er, Xiao Yang would probably be a corpse by now!
When Song Yan'er and Xiao Yang arrived home, the yard was filled with people, all there to congratulate Xiao Yang on his high school graduation! Xiao Yang was momentarily stunned by the scene.
When did my family become so close to the neighbors? Last time there were only a few people.
Song Yan'er was also a little stunned, as she wasn't good at dealing with her neighbors!
Song Yan'er and Xiao Yang exchanged a glance, and Song Yan'er pulled Xiao Yang back outside the door:
"Brother, should we move aside? There will probably be even more people later!"
Song Yan'er gave Xiao Yang a meaningful look!
Xiao Yang's spirits lifted, and he finally understood what it meant for a monarch to stop holding court in the mornings!
Xiao Yang: "Does my sister miss me?"
Song Yan'er replied matter-of-factly, "Of course, you haven't done what you owe me yet!"
Xiao Yang...
"What I owe you" is a verb, but something seems off!
However, Xiao Yang just loved Song Yan'er's infatuated and affectionate side when she was in love with him!
"Alright, shall we go?"
Before Xiao Yang could finish speaking, he heard the door open!
"Where are you going? We're all here to celebrate with you, you're not going to run away on your own, are you?"
Shen Meng was very good at dealing with these people, but her eyes were always on the door. She watched as the two of them appeared at the door for a moment and then retreated!
Shen Meng knew exactly what Song Yan'er was planning!
After all, as her business partner, she knew her very well! And Xiao Yang always put Song Yan'er first! So the two of them definitely didn't want to deal with these people and were planning to run away!
However, such an important event should be celebrated with some excitement; it would feel too lonely if no one was home.
Therefore, Shenmeng couldn't let the two of them be so willful, so she quickly came out to catch them!
I never expected her to be so lucky, catching them every time! She had just come out when she heard the two of them were about to leave!
Upon hearing Chen Meng's voice, Song Yan'er exchanged a glance with Xiao Yang:
It's over, we can't leave now!
I should have known better than to ask Xiao Yang for his opinion; I should have just gone into the space and said so!
Seeing Song Yan'er's annoyed expression, Shen Meng couldn't help but find it amusing:
"Hey, Mrs. Zhuangyuan, don't say you won't attend any of the future gatherings! Now that Xiao Yang has embarked on his official career, there will be no shortage of banquets!"
Song Yan'er understood that before, Xiao Yang didn't have any official rank, so she could be free. But now that Xiao Yang had official rank, social interactions were unavoidable! As the wife of a top scholar and the daughter-in-law of General Xiao, she was even more unable to avoid it!
In fact, if Xiao Yang's mother were reliable, she should have taken Song Yan'er to participate in various events when she first arrived in the capital. However, Bai Yang didn't take a liking to her, and she was lazy, so these things were delayed!
Xiao Yang knew Song Yan'er very well, and seeing her looking like a wilted eggplant, he felt a pang of heartache.
"Sister, don't worry. If you encounter something that interests you, then participate. If you're not interested, then ignore it. After all, our status determines everything. Don't forget, besides being the top scholar, I'm also the emperor's nephew and General Xiao's son!"
Indeed, aside from the princes and princesses, no one can match Xiao Yang's status! Add to that Song Yan'er's terrifying martial arts skills! It's safe to say that Song Yan'er can practically do whatever she wants in the Western Shu Kingdom!
Shen Meng looked at the two people before her, who seemed to have mutual affection:
Well, that makes sense. I was just overthinking it!
Song Yan'er was very happy to hear Xiao Yang's words, and she really wanted to kiss him on the spot! She really couldn't hold back for even a second!
How can he be so good!
"Chenmeng, turn around, your sister is about to do something inappropriate for children!"
Before the two could react to Song Yan'er's words, Song Yan'er stood on tiptoe and gave Xiao Yang a passionate French kiss!
Deep in Dreams...
Damn it, Song Yan'er!
Looking at the two people in front of her, Shen Meng had no doubt that if she hadn't been standing there, the two of them would probably have already consummated their marriage on the spot!
