Li Li was also squeezed into the crowd, standing on tiptoe, but he still couldn't see the words on the list because there were too many people.
"My husband passed the exam! He passed the exam..."
"Young Master, you've passed too! Here you are, seventeenth place!"
"What about me? Why isn't there a me? Ah..."
Various sounds mingled together, some joyful, some sorrowful, each with its own distinct flavor.
Li Li struggled to squeeze to the front, but the first place wasn't his master, nor the second, nor the third...
Jiang Shuyun, Xinyuan County, Xinyuan Town...
Li Li confirmed repeatedly that the information belonged to his father, who was ninth.
The master passed the exam and was excited, but he didn't forget about his eldest master and his uncle.
Following the flow of people, I continued looking down the list until I saw the name of my uncle, Mu Ziwen, at the very end. His eldest brother had failed to make the list.
Li Li squeezed through the crowd and ran towards the teahouse.
"How did it go, sir? Did you pass the exam?"
"I got it! I got it! Ninth place!"
Upon hearing this, Butler Li was delighted and hurried back, as the messengers would be arriving soon. He also needed to find the celebratory money his wife had asked him to prepare.
"Go and tell the master the good news. I'll go back and prepare the congratulatory money. Tell the master to go back soon, the messenger should be here soon."
"I understand, Father."
Li Li entered the teahouse, where congratulations were everywhere. Many servants and young men had seen the list and were reporting the good news to their masters.
"Master, you passed the exam. You came in ninth place, while your uncle came in last."
Jiang Shuyun breathed a sigh of relief upon hearing this; it was good that she had passed.
How could someone who started learning later in life compare to those students who received early education? Although the original owner worked very hard, his conditions and talent were limited, so these results were truly impressive.
Jiang Shuheng was both happy and disappointed. His younger brother had passed the imperial examination, which was something to celebrate, but he himself had failed. Although he was mentally prepared, he was still somewhat saddened.
"Brother-in-law, congratulations on ninth place!"
"Congratulations to you too, cousin!"
Mu Ziwen was also surprised, thinking there was no hope, but he actually passed the exam, although he came in last place.
After chatting for a while, they waited for the crowd in front of the list to disperse, then they went to take a look themselves. Seeing their names on the big red list, they were still very excited!
Jiang Shuyun was in a hurry to go back, as he would have to receive the messenger who came with good news soon.
The autumn examinations are over, and the metropolitan examinations next spring are not far away.
