The person who brought the good news quickly came to the door of Jia's house. The first person to bring the good news loudly shouted: "Congratulations to the third master of Jia's house, Bahuan, who is ranked first in the high school. This autumn, he passed the high school examination and won the first place in the high school next year. He won the first place in the Jinluan Hall." , three yuan and the third place in the exam!"
Later, Jieyuan, Huiyuan, and Zhuangyuan are all ready-made auspicious words to seek good luck.
This group of messengers gathered around, waiting for the reward from the Jia family.
The Jia family is a lineage of nobles from the founding of the country, with four princes and eight princes, twelve princes, and a family with two princes. It is extremely noble.
Although the Jia family is now in decline, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse, and the family is really bright on the outside, so the reward will definitely be large.
However, they only saw the boys in front of Jia's house looking at each other, and no one paid them any reward.
There was even a boy who asked: "Are you here to announce the good news? Do you think our third master is ranked first in the high school? Is there something wrong, the name is mixed up? Our third master obviously did not pass the exam."
The person who brought the good news was also stunned when he was told, and asked quickly: "Excuse me, this is a Jia family with two princes. Is there a third master in the family who is secretive? But he went to take the county examination?"
The boy nodded and said: "Yes, this is a Jia family with two kingdoms. We do have a Huan Sanye in our family, and he also took the county examination. It's just that he failed the first test. How could he be ranked first in high school?" ?”
The messenger was shocked at first, and then thought that this Third Master Huan was probably not a concubine, right?
If he were a concubine, that would be no problem. In the imperial city, this family was not the only one to have a bastard. There were many more ridiculous things than this. He just felt sorry for his reward and didn't know if he still had it.
The person who brought the good news quickly said: "Perhaps your house made a mistake. Now the list has been posted, and the top one is the third master of the house. How can this be faked?"
"It's a blessing for the young people to be able to report good news to the top master. The young people want to ask for a reward from the elders, not just for the money, but mainly because they want to be happy with the top master and go home to reward them. To the children, they will be able to go to high school in the future."
Seeing that Jia's family had no intention of rewarding him with money, the person who brought the good news simply decided to ask for it.
There is no reason for the person who brought the good news to leave. Even if the Jia family is in trouble, they always want to save face, right? You can't give it nothing, right?
Of course, it is impossible not to give it. The key is that the Jia Mansion is not prepared at all. There is no reward at all in advance. How can there be money to reward people at this time?
A boy immediately said: "This is natural. You don't need to tell me, there will be rewards. Please sit here for a while, have a sip of tea and rest, I will go inside and report."
After saying that, the boy hurriedly ran to Jia Mu Rongqing Hall.
Naturally, he couldn't get inside, so he could only report to a woman at the door.
Then the mother-in-law personally ran into Jia Mu's room to announce the good news.
"Ancestor, I am so happy, so happy!"
Jia Mu asked repeatedly: "Tell me quickly, where does happiness come from?"
The mother-in-law said: "Old ancestor, Brother Huan has won the first place. The people who announced the good news have come to our house to report the good news. They are still waiting for the reward outside!"
"It can be seen that Brother Huan is blessed. This is all due to the training of his ancestors. Otherwise, how could he be the first in high school as a little person?"
This news immediately silenced the entire room.
Here, Mrs. Wang sent someone to look at the list.
As a result, the person who was looking at the list hadn't come back yet, but the person who announced the good news had arrived first.
They laughed at Brother Huan for more than ten days, but they never expected that Brother Huan would win and be ranked first!
The atmosphere at the scene was slightly embarrassing.
However, there was no difference between the girls. Lin Daiyu pursed her lips and smiled. She had known that Brother Huan would be the winner, but she didn't expect that he would be ranked first.
Yingchun and Xichun were both happy for Jia Huan, and Tanchun had a look of surprise on his face.
Xue Baochai's expression remained calm, but her heart was not so calm at the moment.
Only Jia Baoyu opened his mouth wide, showing a look of disbelief, and his expression was as depressed as a bereaved concubine!
Huan Laosan is really not a thing! How come you passed the exam? Didn’t you say before that you never passed the test? Now that he has passed the exam, he is afraid that he will be even more miserable in the future.
Mother Jia couldn't help but ask: "Didn't you say that Brother Huan failed in the first test? In the following exams, you also said that Brother Huan was pretending to be bluffing. How come he got it now?" But let’s be honest, don’t you have the same name?”
The mother-in-law said repeatedly: "Old ancestors, the boy outside has asked again and again, Brother Huan in our house is definitely unmistakable."
At this time, Mrs. Wang said with shame and shame: "Mother, when the list was released, I sent a boy from the Wang family to look at the list. I guess some slave missed that Brother Huan's name was also there."
At this time, Mrs. Wang wished that she would have someone beat to death some incompetent little beast from the Lai Wang family, causing her such great humiliation.
But what she hated the most was Jia Huan. Why did this bastard pass the exam? This made her treasure become even more unbearable. Although a county examination is not worth much now, if you succeed a few more times in the future, you will probably surpass Baoyu.
Jia Mu smiled and said: "It's not worth anything. Girl Feng, didn't you prepare the reward for a long time? Go and distribute it outside quickly, don't let people say that our family is stingy. And the maids and women in the house, everyone Give them a month's worth of money so that they can also feel happy."
The maids and women in the house were very happy when they heard that Jia Mu said that she would be rewarded with a month's worth of money. I uttered countless compliments, which made Jia Mu even happier.
Jia Huan ranked first in high school. Jia's mother was really happy. On the left and right were her grandsons, all descendants of the Jia family. The only fly in the ointment is that the one who passed the test was not Baoyu. It would have been better if it had been her Baoyu who had passed the test.
Wang Xifeng stood up and said with a smile: "Yes, ancestor, I will give the order right now. But when ancestor talked about rewards, I can't pretend that I didn't hear it. If ancestor is short of me, I will definitely not rely on him, I will rely on him." I won’t go back to my ancestors.”
Jia Mu laughed and said, "You're the only girl who dares to be rude in front of me. Stop being so verbose. I'll definitely have you when I come back. I'll give you a couple of dollars, just like a mandarin duck. Now you're satisfied." ?”
The whole room laughed.
Wang Xifeng then left with a smile.
Where did she prepare any reward in advance? She also thought that Brother Huan would miss the first try, but now she had to prepare quickly.
Inside the house, Jia Mu said to Yuanyang, "Yuanyang, go and see if Brother Huan is there. If he is, call him."
"Yes, ancestor."
Not long after, Yuanyang came to Jia Huan's study and saw Jia Huan reading seriously in the study.
Seeing this situation, Yuanyang couldn't help but feel moved.
No wonder Brother Huan is ranked first in high school. Today is the day when the results are released. Brother Huan can actually calm down and read seriously. He doesn't know how to study on weekdays.
