Good guy! The porter of Jia Mansion called him "good guy".
This group of messengers hadn't finished the Jia Mansion's bounty yet, and actually planned to eat both sides.
However, the boy did not hide anything. He told the truth: "Now the Third Master has settled in Zhao's Mansion on East Street. You can go there to find him."
"Haha, thank you brother for telling me."
Then, this group of messengers got up and headed towards East Street.
Not long after, they arrived in front of the Zhao Mansion and started beating gongs and drums to announce the good news.
After Mrs. Zhao learned the news, she couldn't help being surprised and happy.
Of course, Jia Huan, who took the provincial examination from high school, was happy. She was surprised that the person bringing the good news came, but she didn't have much money to reward the person bringing the good news.
The couple were originally frugal and did not have much savings.
Ever since Mr. Zhao was arrested and she herself fell ill, if it weren't for Jia Huan's help, their life in the house would have been unsustainable.
Nowadays, Jia Huan is maintaining the food and clothing in the house.
But she really didn't have much money on hand.
Mrs. Zhao gritted her teeth and couldn't help but call her mother-in-law and ask her to go to the pawn shop to pawn a piece of her jewelry to reward the person who brought the good news.
The mother-in-law returned quickly: "Madam, no need. Miss Qingwen has already prepared the reward. Now the reward has been properly rewarded and the messenger has been sent away."
Mrs. Zhao breathed a sigh of relief and said, "That's good, that's good."
Not to mention that the messenger was in the Zhao Mansion and received another reward. The rewards you get here are not much less than those in Jia Mansion.
After all, Qingwen is also a girl from the Jia family. She knows some of the rules of the Jia family...
Let's say that Jia Huan, Liu Changqing, and Xu Shichang came to the restaurant. The three of them were in high spirits, talking loudly, cooking wine and talking about heroes, and they felt very uncomfortable.
Unfortunately, it didn't take long before all three of them were drunk.
The three of them all had about the same amount of alcohol, and the main thing was that one of them couldn't drink.
This was the first time in this life that Jia Huan got drunk.
As a result, after getting drunk, Liu Changqing recited the Book of Songs loudly, and Xu Shichang danced gracefully, but the dance was a bit eye-catching.
And Jia Huan stood on the table and sang the national anthem!
Well, there is no national anthem in Daxia in this world, so naturally what Jia Huan sang was, "Get up, people who don't want to be slaves!"
The three of them made a fuss for a while, and then the restaurant sent someone to send them back.
Back at Zhao Mansion, Jia Huan was already fast asleep.
It was Qingwen and the two wives from the Zhao family who finally carried Jia Huan back.
After putting him on the bed, Qingwen patiently wiped Jia Huan's face with a wet towel.
Then he looked at Jia Huan and couldn't help but chuckle.
It wasn't until the evening that Jia Huan woke up, still feeling uncomfortable in his stomach.
After waking up, Jia Huan remembered what he had done when he was drunk.
I didn’t expect that I would be able to stand on the table and sing the national anthem. Ahem, it’s so embarrassing!
Drinking is not only harmful to the body, but also embarrassing. I can't drink so much in the future.
After Jia Huan got up, Qingwen and Xiao Jixiang came to congratulate him.
The two girls seemed to have rehearsed and said in unison: "Congratulations to the Third Master on winning the first prize!"
Jia Huan chuckled, raised his hand and slapped everyone on the head and said, "It's terrible to be uneducated. Your Third Master won the Jieyuan Prize, not the Number One Scholar!"
Qingwen and Xiao Jixiang couldn't help but cover their heads and pouted.
Qingwen said: "Third Master, this person has never read and is illiterate. He is originally stupid. But Third Master can't hit him on the head anymore! He is already stupid. If he hits him again, won't he become even more stupid?"
Jia Huan chuckled and said, "If you don't want to hit the head, how about spanking the butt instead?"
Hearing this, Qingwen couldn't help but blush, lowered her head and spat: "The third master is not a good person."
Jia Huan laughed and said, "You two, do you want to read and write? If you want, I will teach you two how to read. If you don't want to, forget it."
Qingwen asked in surprise: "Third Master, is this true? Can you really teach us how to read? It's just that Third Master still has to study hard, and I'm afraid that it will delay Third Master's study."
Xiao Jixiang couldn't help but said: "Sister Qingwen, what's so good about reading? You'll have a headache when the time comes. Don't you see that big-faced girl who looks like you're going to die when you hear about reading?"
Qingwen and Xiao Jixiang have been following Jia Huan for a long time, and have also learned some wisecracks from later generations.
Qingwen sneered and said: "How many people are there in this world who are like trash with a big face? Reading will make you smart. After I read, I will become smarter. If you don't study, you will always be stupid. In the end, you will be stupid to death." .”
Jia Huan smiled and said: "It's irrelevant. I'll teach you a few words in one day, and you just have to write slowly by yourself. If you want to learn, I'll teach you. If you don't want to learn, that's it. You won't study either, so there's no need to take it seriously. Let's do it."
Qingwen said quickly: "Third Master, I am willing to learn."
Xiao Jixiang hesitated for a long time before saying: "Third Master, me, me too."
Jia Huan couldn't help laughing.
Qingwen said: "Third Master, Jixiang and I will be hosts tomorrow and set up a banquet for apprenticeship. I hope Third Master will show his respect."
Jia Huan said: "I won't be able to do it tomorrow. I have to go to the Luming Banquet tomorrow. Let's wait until the day after tomorrow. There is no need for an apprenticeship banquet. You can just serve me tea, haha."
The Deer Ming Banquet is a banquet stipulated in the imperial examination system. On the day after the provincial examination results are released, new imperial examination candidates and internal and external officials are invited to a banquet to sing the "Deer Ming" chapter in the "Book of Songs", so it is called it.
On the second day, Jia Huan got up early, washed and had breakfast, then hired a carriage and went straight to Shuntian Mansion.
When Jia Huan arrived, many people had already arrived outside Shuntian Mansion.
This time the Deer Ming Banquet was really lively.
Those who participated in the Luming Banquet included the chief examiner, fellow examiners, deacons, and village tributes.
There are more than 300 tributes admitted.
At the Luming Banquet, the seats were all arranged according to rankings.
They were admitted in the same examination room and have a natural friendship called the same year.
When we meet in the future, they usually discuss their rankings in that year's exams.
It can be said that in this deer-crowing banquet, everything is really determined by ranking.
And candidates ranked lower will not move closer to candidates ranked higher.
In the crowd, Jia Huan saw Liu Changqing and Xu Shichang.
After greeting the two, Jia Huan was pushed out by the two.
These two people, both of whom were one hundred people apart, could not sit together at the banquet, and they did not want to humiliate themselves.
In desperation, Jia Huan had no choice but to walk to the front of the crowd.
Not long after, he came to the C position.
And the person standing behind him was Lin Mubai, who had been beaten twice by him.
These two people are the kind of people who hate each other. When they met, they snorted at each other and turned away.
The third person was Anonymous. They greeted each other as if they had met each other.
The fourth place shocked Jia Huan.
He remembered that the fourth place in the provincial examination was Li Ling'er, but what he saw here was clearly Princess Anle.
He couldn't help but ask: "Princess Anle, you, why are you here?"
