He didn't dare to brag anymore, he didn't think he could pass the exam.
Zhao Dawen's family was in despair. He really wanted to go to the provincial capital and take the exam to become a scholar.
"Dashu, we know you have the best future. You have only studied for four years, and Xiao Lei has only studied for a little over three years. You have both achieved such good results. If you two had been allowed to study earlier, wouldn't you have become high-ranking officials in the capital now?"
Heizi's words were the most pleasant to the ears and Zhao Dashu said he enjoyed listening to them.
"Hehe, it's not as amazing as you say."
"Why not? You are the most powerful in our village in recent years."
"That's right. Don't underestimate yourself. If you had studied earlier, you would have been a successful candidate by now."
"You just suffered because you were enlightened late. People used to say you were smart, but you are so thieving and daring to do bad things one after another..."
"Stop, go home, go home!"
Zhao Dawen's family had already boarded the mule cart and couldn't stand listening any longer. Was it necessary to step on him to elevate Zhao Dashu?
Everyone knows that he is the most promising and the most talented student in Laomuzhu Village.
"Boss, don't listen to their nonsense. He is just a blind cat that has caught a dead mouse. That's all he can do."
"Yes, Dad, Uncle San is no match for you no matter what."
"Don't take these people's words to heart. They are jealous, jealous."
"They are just jealous. Don't bother with them."
Being comforted by his family, Zhao Lao Da felt relieved. "I don't worry about it. It's just a small matter. Son, I'm very pleased that you passed the exam today. Don't be influenced by your uncle. We should take things step by step. There's no rush to pass the exam, okay?"
"My son."
Even if his father asked him to take the exam now, he wouldn't dare to do so because he doesn't have the ability.
When they arrived at the village, thanks to the tireless publicity by the village chief Liu Shunzi and others, everyone knew that Zhao Dashu and Xiao Lei not only passed the exam to become the top student, but were also the top students.
"I never thought that even if I passed the imperial examination, I would still have to rank."
"That's right. Why haven't I heard Boss Zhao mention his ranking before?"
"It's definitely not good. I heard that his son also passed the exam, but his ranking was not even close to Dashu and the others."
"Really? Maybe the ranking is really not good, otherwise according to Old Sun's temper, the news would have spread all over the village."
"Dashu is really promising, but it's a pity that he started too late at his age. I'm afraid it will be difficult for him to continue his studies."
"Yes, our Sow Village could have produced an official in the future, but it was blocked by Old Man Zhao."
"No, Boss Zhao blocked my way. I used to think he was so powerful and talented, but now it seems that he is just so-so."
"Yeah, it's just ordinary. The tree is powerful, and the son-in-law it found is even more powerful."
"Is Xiao Yi regretting this?"
"You did it yourself. Even if you marry Yang, you can't do this to your own son, right?"
"He deserves it. He has done nothing wrong. Look, retribution is yet to come!"
"Yang Shi is the same. Why can't she tolerate a child? I heard that her two sons still haven't found wives."
"They have high standards. They don't like the inferior ones. Who would want to marry a good one? Some would even hesitate!"
"Yes, she never admits defeat, but everyone's fate is predetermined. I'm afraid she is not feeling well right now, right?"
"They deserve it. Xiao Lei has finally made it. It was his creation that he got married into the Dashu family."
"What's behind? Didn't you hear that he got first place in the exam? It's said to be amazing."
“Big trees have vision.”
"That's right. Otherwise, how can they make a lot of money? It's because they have good vision."
"That's what you said."
