Zhang Wenyuan happily accepted the poem.

Song Youming, who also passed the imperial examination, looked at him with envy.

Unexpectedly, Su Yu actually composed such an excellent poem of gratitude.

After the academy examination was over, all the newly promoted scholars sat at the banquet together.

The prefect and academic administrators were sitting on top.

Others composed verses haphazardly put together for the sake of rhyme.

And Zhang Wenyuan took out such a simple but profound poem.

Isn't this amazing?

When he thought of this, Song Youming looked at Su Yu with hesitation.

He also passed the government examination this time.

Before taking the exam, my husband said that he had a high probability of passing this time.

And it is estimated that he can compete in the college examination.

Strictly speaking, the relationship between him and Su Yu is still recent.

After all, they are from the same school and the same teacher.

Why don't he ask Su Yu to make a song in private later?

When he was thinking about this, he completely forgot that he had just questioned whether Su Yu could do it.

I just thought that I should prepare in advance and not fall behind.

Zhang Wenyuan over there had already happily folded the dry paper and said, "Thank you, Brother Su, for the poem."

"We all have the friendship of classmates to protect each other."

"If you have any difficulties in the future, just come to me."

After finishing speaking, he whispered a few words to the book boy behind him.

The book boy understood and quickly sent out a purse.

"Brother Su must have worked hard to write such good poetry."

"This small fee for polishing the pen is a token of my gratitude to Brother Su for his kind words."

This is very wise.

Scholars do not discuss these yellow and white things, so they receive what others give them.

Su Yu smiled sincerely and took the purse.

"It would be best if I could help Brother Wen Yuan."

He squeezed the purse without leaving any trace.

Well, a piece of silver is not small when pinched.

It is estimated that there are about five taels.

Sure enough, knowledge is wealth.

Relying on his charming ancestors, Su Yu could borrow a lot of such poems.

If he had set up a stall near Gongyuan to do this on the day when the examination results were released, the business would probably have been even better.

But it's a pity.

He failed the government examination this time and will not be qualified to take the college examination in Fucheng next time.

In ancient times, when traveling far away, it was very troublesome for a person without fame to go to the Yamen to find someone to guide him.

So I basically won’t be able to come to the next college examination.

Now I can exchange this poem for a brushstroke fee, which is pretty much it.

It also saved me the effort of setting up a stall in a busy market as I had originally thought.

Su Yu put the money away.

Zhang Wenyuan was very happy and directly waved his hand and invited everyone to lunch.

The four treasures of the study were put away, and a lot of good wine and food were served.

We are going back tomorrow, so we don’t want to drink much.

Just a few drinks.

Zhang Wenyuan toasted Su Yu enthusiastically and said, "I just forgot to tell you something."

"The college examination will only be held in July, and we are all preparing to go back tomorrow."

"You Ming and I will rent a carriage to go back separately. Then it will be more spacious for us to travel together."

"You just have to pay the same amount as the bullock cart."

Zhang Wenyuan's family conditions are very good.

In fact, it doesn't matter that he paid for it all himself.

But we are all scholars, and we all have a lot of backbone.

That's why he suggested this.

Five people, plus Zhang Wenyuan's book boy, were sitting outside, which was a bit crowded, but in fact, a carriage could also fit in.

However, Zhang Wenyuan and Song Youming have both passed the government examination. In order to celebrate, there is no need to worry about the money.

By renting two carriages they could sit more comfortably.

After Zhang Wenyuan finished speaking, Su Yu waved his hand and rejected their kindness.

He won't have to squeeze into a carriage with these grown men tomorrow.

"You go first tomorrow."

"I won't be with you."

"I must rent a carriage alone and take my wife home with me."

"Ah? Your wife?"

After hearing this, several classmates' jaws, which had almost dropped to the floor because of Su Yu's poem, were once again wide open in surprise.

"You, when did you get married?"

Su Yu said truthfully: "Just after the government examination results are released."

"It just so happens that the place where the results are released is right at the government office, and you can walk a few steps to the place where the marriage certificate is issued."

"So after I found out that I was unsuccessful, I simply walked a few steps, got a marriage certificate, and got married."

Just after failing the exam, you turn around and get married?

Is this speed... too fast?

The classmates, listening to Su Yu's understatement, were once again shocked and unable to recover.

After arriving in Fucheng, everyone basically walked around the inn.

During this period of time, I haven't seen Su Yu get particularly close to any young lady!

Song Youming, who went to the same school as Su Yu, suddenly said, "I heard that Su Yu, when your parents were still alive, arranged a baby wedding for you."

"Could it be that the young lady who received the marriage certificate from you is that young lady?"

Su Yu also remembered that he had indeed ordered a baby to kiss him before.

However, after his parents died and he failed repeatedly, the family no longer wanted to acknowledge the engagement.

That family member had spoken before setting off to Fucheng to take the imperial examination this time.

If Su Yu can't pass the Tongsheng Examination this time, their daughter can't wait for Su Yu anymore.

The implication is.

This time Tong Sheng failed the test and the engagement was broken off.

Now that it is confirmed that he will fail the ranking again, there is no need to think about it anymore.

Su Yu said: "No."

"The previous engagement has long since ceased to count."

"My wife, her home is in Fucheng, not from our side."

"People from Fucheng..."

Su Yu's previous date was just a girl from the countryside.

People like this still despised Su Yu's family background and repeated attempts to fail.

But he didn't expect that a girl from Fucheng would actually fall in love with him?

Is that girl missing arms or legs, or looking very ugly, or hiding something unspeakable?

That's why he found Su Yu, a farmer, to get married in a hurry.

The eyes of several people looking at Su Yu couldn't help but turn from admiration to sympathy.

Even if you fail the exam for the fifth time, you may still be defrauded into marriage.

But thinking about the poem Su Yu just wrote, maybe the girl took a fancy to Su Yu's talent?

Seeing Su Yu's happy look, the others didn't say anything.

He just handed over his hand and congratulated Su Yu.

Su Yu was frustrated in the examination room but happy in love.

Although he is still a bit unfamiliar with the wife who just received the marriage certificate, the problem of being single has been solved as soon as he traveled to this world.

So Su Yu was in a pretty good mood.

After exchanging some pleasantries, Su Yu finished his meal and prepared to pack up and go to the car dealership to rent the carriage.

Horses are precious things.

Even if it is a wealthy family, not everyone has it.

Therefore, the price of renting a carriage is very expensive.

Fortunately, he just got the money, otherwise he would have to take his new wife with other men on his return trip.

"Huh? Brother Youming, are you going to rent a car too?"

Marquis Youming of Song Dynasty was outside. When he saw Su Yu going out, he directly said hello and said that he was also going to the car dealership to rent a car, and the two of them went to the car dealership together.

Walking in silence, Song Youming suddenly spoke and said quietly: "Su Yu, I also passed the imperial examination this time."

"Our husband said that we have a good chance of taking the college exam."

"I wonder if you could also waste some time and help me think of a good thank-you poem?"

"Although my family background is not as good as Zhang Wenyuan's, I won't miss you in retouching fees!"

"Brother Youming also wants to thank you for your poems?" Su Yu raised his eyebrows: "Of course."

Of course you have to earn the money delivered to your door.

"But I need inspiration to write poetry. I have to wait until I get back to think about it."

Song Youming immediately beamed: "Okay, then it's settled!"
