Jia Huan's words were just polite remarks. He said this to several candidates in the lobby on the first floor.
However, after hearing what Jia Huan said, Mei Shiming was surprised and said, "Is that true? I thought I was the only one who saw Brother Jia like this. I never thought that Brother Jia was just like me. It shows that we are really destined. No. I just want to treat Jia Huiyuan to a few drinks before leaving."
Jia Huan couldn't resist, so he had to go into Mei Shiming's private room and drink a few glasses of wine before he could escape.
The three of them entered the private room on the third floor. Jia Huan couldn't help but ask: "Is this Mei Yayuan so familiar? I just said a polite word and he took it seriously?"
Xu Shichang smiled and said, "Brother Jia, doesn't he know his family?"
Jia Huan said blankly: "Should I know his home?"
Xu Shichang smiled and said: "His family is somewhat related to yours. Mei Shiming's father was a Hanlin scholar in the early years. Although he is noble and noble, his family is extremely poor."
"His family didn't make much money, so they all relied on Mei Hanlin's salary. But one year, food prices soared, and his family couldn't survive."
"Thanks to the money given to them by the second master of the Xue family, the Mei family was able to survive the famine years. Mei Hanlin was grateful for the kindness of the second master of the Xue family, so he married the second master of the Xue family."
"Isn't the Xue family also living in your house now? That's why I said that the Mei family and your family are somewhat related."
Hearing this, Jia Huan couldn't help but suddenly realized.
It turns out that Mei Shiming is the son of Mei Hanlin.
And Mei Hanlin was married to the second wife of the Xue family. In other words, Xue Baoqin of the Xue family was engaged to this Mei Shiming.
Jia Huan's first impression of Mr. Mei was not very good. If the face is too feminine, the mind must be gloomy, which is not a good match.
But this was the Xue family's business, and Jia Huan didn't bother to care about it.
Not to mention Jia Huan, Liu Changqing and Xu Shichang were drinking in Zhuangyuan Tower.
…
Let's talk about the boy in Jia's house who was sent by Jia's mother to look at the list. He kept in mind the lesson of the boy from the Wang family.
Yesterday, I went to the place where the results were released before dark, fearing that I would miss the time and not be able to squeeze in. If I returned later than the person announcing the good news, I was afraid that I would follow in the footsteps of the boy from the Wang family.
For more than a year, the boy who came to Wang's house had a really bad life, and he was often sent to do the worst errands.
He would never do that.
This boy left very early, but he was not alone. There were actually boys from several other houses keeping him company.
After waiting all night, the boy saw Jia Huan's name as soon as the list was released on the second day.
He saw it clearly again and again, so he squeezed out of the crowd and ran away.
Of course, there was a carriage waiting outside the crowd.
He rushed all the way to the carriage and shouted: "Hurry, rush out and go back home! The faster, the better!"
The young man got out of the car in front of Jia's mansion, and then ran in quickly without stopping all the way.
After running all the way outside the courtyard of Rongqing Hall, the boy didn't wait for the woman at the door to come forward. He mustered up all his strength and shouted loudly: "Old ancestor, great joy, great joy! The third master got the first place in the exam again and won the high school diploma." ! Congratulations to our ancestors, congratulations to our ancestors!"
As soon as this wailing voice came out, the woman at the door was so frightened that she sat down on the ground.
But in the room, the room full of people actually listened to it for real.
Jia Mu said happily: "Brother Huan won! He is first again! Hurry, reward! reward! reward!"
Yuanyang said happily: "Yes, ancestor!"
After that, Yuanyang personally held a large ingot worth fifty taels in his hands, walked to the gate of the courtyard, and gave it to the boy with his own hands.
The boy took the big ingot with a smile and kowtowed on the ground to express his gratitude.
After Yuanyang returned, the woman angrily yelled that the boy was nothing. She was so frightened that she didn't say anything, and even robbed her of her winnings and her reward.
The boy didn't say anything back, he just laughed and apologized, hugged the big ingot tightly and said nothing to the woman.
Then the woman didn't pay attention and disappeared in a flash.
At this time, everyone in the room was already ecstatic.
Needless to say, Jia Mu was the most happy person.
Jia Huan had already won four times in a row before, but the four times added together, his joy was not even one-tenth as good as today.
For the Jia family, even if it is a candidate, it is just the icing on the cake, and there is not much substantial change.
However, a Jinshi is completely different, especially a fourteen-year-old Jinshi!
The one who can support the entire Jia family in the future must be Jia Huan!
This allowed Jia Mu to give an explanation to the old Duke Rong, even a hundred years later.
In the room, Jia Zheng, a serious person who was usually serious, showed his true feelings at this time. He burst into tears and was so excited that he could not speak.
Aunt Zhao was originally standing behind Jia Mu. Jia Mu didn't ask her to come the previous few times, so she could save face for Mrs. Wang.
This time, Jia Mu called her.
At this moment, Yuanyang even moved a piece of cake for her to sit on.
The house full of ladies from the Jia family, as well as the mother-in-law and maids, were all smiling and proud.
Only Mrs. Wang had a fake smile on her face, but she was clenching her teeth tightly, and her gums soon began to bleed, leaving her mouth full of fishy smell.
But there was not even a fake smile on Jia Baoyu's face.
He only felt noisy and did not feel any joy at all.
At this moment, Jia Zheng finally wiped away his tears and was so excited that he couldn't control himself.
Jia Mu said to him: "Zheng'er, this time as the leader of Huan Ge'er High School, we will have a big banquet and invite relatives and friends to have fun together."
Jia Zheng said quickly: "Mother, this is how it should be. However, after the results of the general examination are released, the palace examination is not far away, and it will start in a few days."
"My son actually thinks it's better to just wait until after the palace examination before inviting him to the banquet. Otherwise, if the palace examination is in high school, we can't invite him again, right?"
"If I get the top prize in high school in the Huan'er Palace Examination, I will win six prizes in a row. This is my only honor since the founding of Daxia!"
"This kind of nobility can only be found in Rongguo Mansion. This time, Huan'er has fulfilled his child's dream of becoming a pediatrician. Even if the child dies now, there will be no regrets!"
As he said this, Jia Zheng was already moved to tears again.
Mother Jia cried with her and said, "Zheng'er, today is a happy day, but you hook me and cry with you."
Jia Zheng quickly put away his tears and coaxed Jia Mu to come.
At this moment, the relatives and friends of Jia's family, including some old relatives, all sent people to congratulate him.
This was never so lively and grand in the last Jia Huan election.
It can be seen that in the eyes of each school, the importance attached to the examination and examination is also different.
The Jia family was full of joy and not only rewarded their servants.
There was even a grand banquet, and the whole house was full of people celebrating.
At noon, Jia Huan's banquet was over, and he returned to Jia's house drunk.
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the house, he was picked up by someone sent by Jia Mu.
