On the wedding day, I was broken off, so I remarried his uncle
Chapter 181 Another idea
Yang Ji and his group strode past them and went straight to the place where the list was hung.
The person following him walked to the front of the crowded crowd, stepped forward and pushed away the students who were looking up at the list, with a very arrogant attitude.
All the students' attention was focused on the list, and suddenly someone pushed them hard. If there was no one to support them, they would probably fall to the ground.
The students turned around and glared at the person who came over angrily. They were about to scold him, but when they saw how arrogant and domineering he was, they swallowed the rebuke back.
The crowded crowd was pushed aside by Yang Ji's men. Yang Ji walked to the list with a gloomy face and saw that his ranking was indeed very low, actually ranked outside the top 100.
This made him very unhappy.
Although I have passed the provincial examination, it would be difficult to pass the college examination with such results!
To take the Academy Examination, one not only has to compete with those who have taken the Tongsheng Examination this year, but also with those who have passed the Prefectural Examination in previous years but have not taken the Academy Examination!
Yang Ji's face became increasingly gloomy. He stared at the rankings on the list, wishing he could stare a hole in the names on the list.
When the students around saw Yang Ji's distorted face, they all remained silent tacitly. They didn't want to offend Yang Ji and get themselves into trouble at this time.
As a result, the atmosphere on the scene remained strangely deadlocked until Yang Ji turned around and left angrily with a dark face. Only then did the students who had gathered together breathe a sigh of relief and began to talk.
"Who was that person just now? He looked so arrogant!"
Among them, a student from Nanyang County warned him, "Shh, keep your voice down. Be careful not to let him hear you. His father is the magistrate of Nanyang County and has some power."
One of them sneered, "Humph, I thought you were some big shot, but you're just the son of a small county magistrate, and you dare to act so recklessly and tyrannically? Don't you see where you are now? This is the capital city!"
"Yes, yes. Look at his behavior. Even if the prefect came, he wouldn't make such a big scene as this!"
“…”
Song Xile didn't care about such discussions. As Yang Ji didn't hit the target with one strike, Song Xile didn't want to confront him head-on.
They stood outside the crowd, waiting for the group to leave, then moved to the list. Qian Feng's eyes instantly locked on his own name, and his heart, which had been hanging in the air, finally settled down.
After confirming the rankings with their own eyes, the group left. As it was still early for dinner, Qian Feng suggested taking a walk around the city.
They walked through the bustling market, passed by one quaint shop after another, and passed by several cloth shops. Song Xile even specially selected some fabrics for his parents, preparing for his second brother to take back when he returned.
They walked and stopped along the way, and when they arrived at Shiwei Building, it was time for dinner!
As soon as the group entered the restaurant, the waiter came up to greet them with great tact and asked with a smile on his face, "Dear guests, please come in. What would you like to eat?"
Qian Feng glanced at the noisy hall and frowned: "Do you have any quieter boxes here?"
The waiter nodded quickly and said enthusiastically: "Yes, yes, please follow me!" After that, he led the group to the private room on the second floor.
After everyone was seated, he respectfully asked, "What would you like to eat?"
"Besides braised lion's head and steamed fish, what new dishes have you come up with recently?"
Upon hearing this, the waiter immediately introduced the dishes in detail, "Let me tell you, young master, our restaurant has recently launched steamed spareribs, roasted lamb, braised pork with pickled mustard greens..."
"Why are there only meat dishes? Aren't there any seasonal vegetables?"
The waiter said with some embarrassment: "Young Master, you know that now is the lean season, and coupled with the drought, seasonal vegetables are a little harder to come by!"
"Sir, would you like to try our new Jade Tofu Soup or Glutinous Rice and Tremella Soup? These two dishes are also very relieving."
Chen Yunyou thought about it and nodded, then asked a few people for their opinions, and then ordered the waiter to bring up all the dishes that had been ordered.
The waiter bowed and replied. After a while, he brought up another pot of tea. After pouring the tea, he said, "Dear guests, please have some tea and wait for a while. The food will be served soon!"
Qian Feng waved his hand nonchalantly, motioning him to leave. After taking a sip of tea, he asked expectantly, "Yun You, are you going to stay here and continue preparing for the exam, or are you going to go back first?"
Chen Yunyou could sense his friend's expectation. He smiled and said, "I was just about to tell you how much the rent for the house you rented is. How about we split the cost?"
"Xi Le and I plan to stay here for now, and we will have to bother you for a while!"
Qian Feng was very happy to hear that Chen Yunyou wanted to stay, but he was adamant about not agreeing to his suggestion to share the rent.
"You live here, and I benefit a lot from studying with you. Now you're talking about sharing the rent, you're just slapping me in the face!"
Seeing Qian Feng's firm attitude and even a little displeased, Chen Yunyou looked at his wife for her opinion.
Song Xile thought for a moment and said, "How about this, we will be responsible for the food at home from now on."
"How does this work..."
Song Xile insisted, "This is as it should be. We still have to live here for nearly two months. It won't be three or five days. If we eat and live here for free for a long time, Yun You and I will feel uneasy!"
"If Master Qian insists on doing this, Yun You and I will have no choice but to find another place to stay!"
Qian Feng hurriedly said, "No, no, then just do as my sister-in-law says!"
Just as they finished the conversation, there was a knock on the door, and then the waiter came in with food.
As the food was brought in, the aroma of the food instantly filled the entire box.
Everyone was a little hungry at this time, and when they saw the golden, crispy and tender roasted lamb on the table, everyone's eyes couldn't help but be attracted to it.
As the host, Qian Feng immediately picked up the chopsticks and asked everyone to eat.
Song Xile also took a bite and found the meat to be tender and juicy with an excellent taste.
The only drawback was that she always felt something was missing. After tasting it carefully, she found that although the mutton was delicious, its taste was rather monotonous.
It would be nice if there were some spices. How can roast lamb be without spices!
Suddenly, an idea came to her mind. If the prefect really agreed to hold the dragon boat race, she would let her second brother set up a stall to sell grilled lamb skewers, and maybe he could make some money.
She looked at her second brother and couldn't help but think about the possibility of this matter.
