Chapter 2128 Excited
Sure enough, as Widow Liu said, someone from the county government came two days later.
Beat gongs and drums to deliver the good news to the town.
On the one hand, the security chief of Qingshui Town was busy receiving the news, and on the other hand, he quickly sent someone to Yang Huazhong's home in Changping Village to report the news.
This year's rural examination, among all the candidates taking the provincial examination in Wanghai County, it is said that two of them will be honored.
Only five people passed the exam.
Da'an is one of them, and the other four are said to be young men from wealthy gentry families in the county.
Otherwise, they are the descendants of a scholar's family, and all of them have been exposed to it since childhood.
I went to the best school in the county and had a dedicated teacher at home to tutor me.
Only Da'an came up from the countryside and went to a pretty good school in Qingshui Town.
Now, among the five candidates who passed the examination, Da'an suddenly became the object of everyone's attention, almost causing a sensation in the entire Wanghai County.
In addition to the legendary achievements of Muzichuan, Changping Village in Qingshui Town has become almost the most famous place in Wanghai County.
"Qing'er, Tangyazi, what should we do next? Your father and I don't know what to do?"
Mrs. Sun ran over to Yang Ruoqing and Luo Fengtang in a panic. The woman was shocked and happy, and she didn't know what to say.
Yang Ruoqing was chatting with Luo Fengtang in the garden. On the ground nearby, Luo Baobao was squatting there and drawing circles attentively.
Hearing Sun's words, Yang Ruoqing became excited.
"That's great, great, the good news is here, so what, don't panic, Mom, don't panic even when I call you daddy!" she said.
Sun said: "This is the first time that such a thing has happened. All the people from the Yamen have arrived in Qingshui Town, and the family still doesn't know how to receive it!"
"Unexpectedly, Da'an came back with a message. He and Dajie invited a few classmates together, saying they were going to play outside for a few days and then come back..."
Yang Ruoqing interrupted Sun's words: "It's okay, isn't it just the county government that sent someone down to announce the good news?"
"Even if the county magistrate comes, we can still receive him."
"Mom, don't panic, Tang Yazi and I have discussed the reception in the past two days. I will ask Tang Yazi to go over there and talk to my father first."
"I'll send the baby to her grandma, and then I'll go there with you!" she said.
Mrs. Sun nodded repeatedly, so everyone acted together and hurried to Yang Huazhong's yard next door.
When Yang Ruoqing and Sun came to the yard next door together, Luo Fengtang was already there explaining in detail to Yang Huazhong the reception and entertainment matters for the meeting.
Seeing Yang Ruoqing and Sun coming, Luo Fengtang walked over.
"I have already sent Xiaohua to the old house to invite you and the others to come over, as well as Uncle Chang Geng, Uncle Daniu, and my predecessor Li Zheng and the others," he said.
Yang Ruoqing nodded: "Okay, I'll leave the front yard reception to you men."
"Leave it to me for the backyard meals, and we can divide the work and work together," she said.
Luo Fengtang smiled and nodded, then went their separate ways.
At midnight, someone from the county government came.
The gongs and drums were noisy, firecrackers were blasting, and the entire Changping Village came to Yang Huazhong's house to watch the fun.
Even Yujia Village, Lijia Village, and Zhengjia Village next door were alarmed.
Pairs of envious and awed eyes shrouded the courtyard gate of Yang Huazhong's house.
What does it mean to shine brightly on the lintel? This is it.
The front yard was very lively, the men were receiving people from the Yamen, and the women were busy in the back yard for the noon banquet.
A sumptuous meal was served to everyone. After the lunch banquet, when the officials left, Yang Huazhong took out the red envelopes he had prepared in advance and gave them to them.
The officials have left, but the relatives and friends who came to have a banquet, as well as people who have friendships in the village, have not left yet.
Everyone was chatting in the main room of Yang Huazhong's house, and a cheerful atmosphere enveloped the entire courtyard.
So much so that at night, Mrs. Sun and other women prepared several tables of meals to entertain everyone.
After being busy until night, the excitement of the day finally came to an end.
At this point, the reception ended successfully.
From then on, Changping Village had two successful candidates, and the old Yang family finally ended the fate of being farmers for so many years.
"This is the happiest day in my entire life, old man!"
Old Yangtou sat at the table, smoking a few puffs of dry cigarettes from time to time, drinking a few sips of good tea, and then talking to his children and grandchildren in front of him.
"Our old Yang family finally has an official, hahaha!"
"If the ancestors of our old Yang family knew this, they would laugh out loud, hahaha..."
As Old Yangtou spoke, he couldn't help but laugh.
This is the first time Yang Ruoqing has heard Old Yangtou smile so heartily since she came to this world.
On the table, there are candles lit. Under the candlelight, Old Yang's head is glowing red, and his whole person seems to be several years younger!
"Dad, keep a low profile and keep a low profile. You just won the exam. It's just a false name. You can't tell what will happen next..." Yang Huazhong said.
Old Yangtou said: "Hey, you can't say that. If you win the election, you can be appointed to be an official somewhere else!"
"I used to work in the county town when I was young, and the county magistrate at that time was a civil servant."
"Then the county magistrate was changed, and I heard that he was also a juren."
"I also heard that the imperial court has regulations. When a person is released to serve as a county magistrate or magistrate, he cannot do so in his own country, but must go to an outside county."
"Hahaha, it seems that our Da'an will soon go to another county to serve as an official. By then, our whole family will all be the family members of the imperial officials."
What does it mean when one person attains enlightenment and chickens and dogs ascend to heaven?
Lao Yangtou explained everything with these words and laughter.
Yang Ruoqing also spoke up. She said to Old Yang, "Sir, Da'an is still young, and it is not suitable for him to be sent out to be an official."
"What we mean is to let him continue his studies and seek fame."
"There is no limit to learning. It is always good for the future to study more while you are still young," she said.
Hearing this, Yang Huazhong quickly nodded in agreement.
"Yes, that's what we think. Going out to be an official or something like that, the interpersonal relationships are too complicated."
"Our Da'an is still so young. In the eyes of others, we are still a half-grown child. This is in other people's place."
"Others know the truth and the forces are intertwined. We can't suppress the situation if we can get there safely," he said.
Everyone nodded and said what Yang Huazhong said made sense.
Old Yangtou was also full of emotion and said: "It does make sense, then let's continue studying. I think Da'an is a material for studying. I may not be able to get a Jinshi in the future. If I can get the top prize or something,
,It would be great!"
