The billionaire girl: Daddy and Mommy, love me again

The two of them hurried and finally arrived back to Yinzhou at the moment the results were announced.

The entrance to the Imperial Examination Hall was completely blocked.

Cheng Zeli and Han Yu were forced to tie the carriage under a big tree on the roadside and prepare to walk home.

They didn't dare to squeeze into the Dragon and Tiger Wall for fear of being squeezed into a meat patty.

As the saying goes, if you plant flowers intentionally, they will not bloom, but if you plant willows unintentionally, they will create shade.

The two of them were still trying to squeeze in among the crowd, with no intention of looking at the list at all.

But I heard my own name.

"The top one is Cheng Zeli. Who is Cheng Zeli?"

"I know, I know! Cheng Zeli is from Kongwu Academy. He is the most popular candidate for the top prize in this autumn exam."

"Ah! I'm rich! I bet a hundred taels on him to be the first in the imperial examination. I'm making a killing!"

"Damn it, I beat someone else and lost everything. If I had known I would have beaten him!"

.......

"Who is Han Yu, the second on the list? Does anyone know him?"

"I've never heard of him. This person is unknown, but he suddenly emerged and took away the Asian dollar. He can be said to be the biggest dark horse this year."

Cheng Zeli and Han Yu looked at each other, then lowered their heads and squeezed towards home at the same time.

"Damn it, are you blind? Can't you see there's no space? Why are you squeezing in?"

A scholar tried to squeeze in for a long time but failed, and he was very angry.

I don't know who pushed me, but my anger suddenly exploded.

He turned his head and roared behind him.

Just at this moment Cheng Zeli was behind him.

Their eyes met, and the man's eyes widened instantly.

“You…you you you, Cheng…Brother Cheng!”

He was so excited that he couldn't help stuttering.

"Everyone, look! The top of the list is here!"

As soon as these words were spoken, it was like stirring up a hornet's nest, and countless people swarmed over.

Some people do it out of pure curiosity.

Some people want to bask in his literary influence so that they can be on the list.

There are also people who simply failed the exam and are jealous of the top-ranked person. They want to take advantage of the crowd to secretly step on him to vent their anger.

Naturally, there were also some wealthy people who wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to catch a son-in-law from the list and their entire family would go out.

......

Crowds of people rushed towards Cheng Zeli like a tide.

He was squeezed in the middle and couldn't move, just like the glutinous rice cake in the stone mortar, which changed into various shapes with repeated squeezing.

Han Yu stood beside him, using his thin body to try his best to help him block the crowd.

"Don't push it, it could kill people."

Someone in the crowd shouted.

People, however, were like crazy, squeezing into the middle regardless of anything.

Suddenly, two masked men flew down from the roof nearby.

He stepped on everyone's heads and headed straight for Cheng Zeli who was in the middle.

When Cheng Zeli and Han Yu were squeezed to the point that their faces were flushed and red and they were about to suffocate, he carried them away from the encirclement.

The man in black picked up the two people and sent them back home in a few jumps.

“Huff, huff, huff… Thank you so much for saving my life, both of you warriors. Oh, I can’t hold on any longer. Let me take a breath first.”

Cheng Zeli was gasping for breath in his chest as if a bellows was being pulled.

While mumbling his thanks to the two masked men.

"Mr. Cheng, are you okay? We need to ask a doctor to come and see you."

The man in black took off his veil, revealing two familiar faces.

"Xue Yi, Xue Shi, it's you!"

"My master was also at the scene today. Seeing you were trapped, he ordered us to come and rescue you."

"Please thank your parents for me first. I will visit you another day."

At this time, the voices of Old Zhang and Mrs. Zhang were heard outside the door.

Xue Shi and Xue Yi covered their faces again and said, "Goodbye!"

Then, the two of them flew onto the roof and disappeared.

"Old lady, good news, good news. Our young master has won the first place, and Young Master Han is second."

"really?"

"It's absolutely true. I slept under the Dragon-Tiger Wall last night. When the officials posted the notice today, I was the first to see our young master's name hanging high at the top.

You didn't go, so you don't know how popular the scene was. I almost didn't come out. Look, one of the new shoes you just made for me was stepped on.

Luckily, someone shouted something and half of the people moved over there, so I was able to squeeze out.”

"Hey, one pair of shoes is nothing, I'll just make you a new pair today.

Let's move those two boxes of copper coins out quickly, there will definitely be a lot of people coming to congratulate us later."

"Hey, here I am. Luckily I had the foresight to exchange copper coins in advance, otherwise I wouldn't have been able to make it in time in such a hurry today.

I wonder if our Master and Master Han were held up by something and didn't even make it back for such an important matter."

"Oh, stop talking nonsense. This box is too heavy. Save your energy and move it."

"Oh, no, no, it's too heavy. I have to think of another way. Be careful not to hurt my waist."

Mrs. Zhang and Old Man Zhang tried their best but failed to lift the big box full of copper coins.

"Uncle Zhang, Aunt Zhang, leave it there, we will move it."

The man's gentle voice sounded behind him.

The two old men looked back in surprise.

"Sir, you're back!"

There was a knock on the door, and Old Zhang went to open it at Cheng Zeli's signal.

The door opened and the outside was already crowded with people who came to congratulate.

The one at the front is Xue Da.

"Mr. Cheng, congratulations! My master ordered me to bring people to help."

"Thank you, Steward Xue. I, Cheng, will shamelessly trouble you today."

"Mr. Cheng, you are too kind. It is our blessing to be able to serve Mr. Jie Yuan."

Xue Da was a shrewd man. He called out "Mr. Cheng" in front and then turned around and called out "Mr. Cheng".

Cheng Zeli stuffed a bunch of red envelopes that he had prepared long ago into Xue Da's hands and asked him to distribute them to the people who came to help.

Xue Da thanked him without hesitation and after taking the red envelope, he directed people to carry the gifts inside.

He stood at the gate with a smile on his face, welcoming and seeing off guests as if he were familiar with the place.

"Congratulations, Master Cheng, for topping the high school list!"

"Congratulations, Mr. Cheng, for winning the crown!"

"Congratulations......."

.......

The alley outside the gate was crowded with people who came to congratulate them.

It’s not that they were truly happy for him winning the first place, most of them came for the bonus.

Usually after candidates pass the exam, they will give congratulatory money to share their joy.

With the sound of loud gongs and drums and the blast of firecrackers, the good news team was escorted to the Cheng family.

"Good news! Good news! Your master, Cheng Zeli, has passed the Yinzhou provincial examination and has been listed in the top two in the Beijing newspaper."

"Thank you very much, you have worked hard, come inside and have a cup of tea!"

Xue Da quietly stuffed a few red envelopes into the hands of the officials who came to announce the good news, and stepped aside to invite them into the house.

The officer pinched the light red envelope in his hand, his face expressionless but with a hint of smile in his eyes.

"Congratulations to Mr. Cheng for passing the imperial examination. I am busy today. The other candidates behind me are waiting for me to deliver the good news. Please come back another day to have a cup of tea."

After the officers left, Zhang Da and others hid aside, while the people waiting at the door rushed forward and smashed the doors and windows to pieces.

This is called "changing the door and the courtyard", the carp jumps into the farmer's gate, bidding farewell to the old and welcoming the new.

Zhang Da and his men erected a large flagpole at the door to demonstrate the unique style of this scholarly family.

Then they started throwing wedding money, wedding candies and wedding cakes.

One after another, local gentry and officials came to congratulate with gifts.

There were thunderous cheers and blaring drums and music in Wutong Alley.

Amid the noise, a team announcing good news appeared at the end of the alley.
