I am a woman, I am a man, I want to marry a wife so that I can farm

When it comes to the announcement of the results, the most excited people are the candidates. As soon as the list is posted, the candidates immediately crowd around.

When Shen Wenren arrived, the front was already blocked by a huge crowd of people. Hearing the people who had squeezed out in front of him sighing and crying, or laughing happily and saying "I passed, I passed", Shen Wenren couldn't help but feel anxious, wondering how he had done in the exam.

"Brother Shen!"

When Shen Wenren was looking forward anxiously, someone suddenly patted him on the back. He turned around and saw Wen Wan's bright smiling face facing him.

Looking more closely, the girl was actually dressed as a man today, with her long black hair half tied up and half loose, wearing a moon-white robe, a beige belt around her waist with a sachet and jade pendant hanging on the belt, and a folding fan in her hand, looking like a handsome young man.

"Brother Wen."

Shen Wenren bowed in return, his face full of surprise.

Wen Wan was amused by Shen Wenren's words. She raised her chin proudly, opened the folding fan in her hand with a 'swish', and shook it gently a few times. There was a cunning light flashing in her eyes, which was playful and cute.

"Brother Shen, how is it?" Wen Wan stood up straight and gently waved the folding fan in her hand.

Shen Wenren was almost stunned for a moment, "Brother Wen's outfit today is really eye-catching."

Wen Wan smiled even more brightly after hearing this. She then put away her folding fan and asked, "Brother Shen, are you here to see the list?"

"That's right, but..." Looking at the crowded crowd in front of him, Shen Wenren couldn't help but show an embarrassment on his face. He shook his head and smiled, "I'm afraid I can't watch it now."

"What's so difficult about this?"

Wen Wan waved and gave a few instructions to the servant following behind her, and the servant immediately squeezed into the crowd.

"Okay, someone is here to help you check the list. Let's go to the teahouse over there and have a cup of tea."

Shen Wenren: "In that case, I will respectfully obey your command. Brother Wen, please."

Shen Wenren's words made Wen Wan laugh again.

After about two cups of tea, the servant ran to the teahouse that Wen Wan had mentioned before, sweating profusely. "Young Master, Young Master,"

"Here!" Wen Wan waved at him.

When he came close to the two men, the servant wiped the sweat from his forehead and said happily, "Sir, Mr. Shen has won!"

"Win? Which place?" Wen Wan asked with eyes wide open in surprise. She really hadn't made a mistake in judging him. Shen Wenren was indeed a capable man!

"Well, I didn't see..." The servant scratched his head. The young lady just told him to see whether Mr. Shen passed the exam, but didn't tell him to see what place he got.

"Oh, yes, there is one more thing,"

"Anything else? Can you finish your words at once?" Wen Wan asked anxiously.

Servants: "All successful candidates on the imperial list will have to take part in the palace examination in ten days, when the emperor will personally set the questions for the test!"

Hearing this, Shen Wenren couldn't help but feel nervous and excited. Not to mention the iron-blooded measures taken by the founding emperor of Qian Kingdom to rectify the atmosphere in the court, establish the Chamber of Commerce to regulate merchants, and distribute land to households and other wise policies, the fact that this special examination treated every student fairly and justly was enough to make him respect the current emperor very much.

How could Shen Wenren not be excited and nervous when he thought that he would be able to see the current emperor in person during the palace examination in ten days?

"That means there is still a chance! Brother Shen, you must study hard in the next ten days. Then you will definitely make the emperor look at you differently!" Wen Wan encouraged.

"Well, thanks to Brother Wen's good words, I will go back now." Shen Wenren clenched his fists, looking determined to win, and was about to leave with a bow.

Wen Wan stopped him again, "Don't go back to your place. There are too many people there. How can you concentrate on studying? Why don't you go to my house? I will send someone to pick up your family later."

"In that case, I'll trouble you, Brother Wen." Shen Wenren agreed immediately.

How could he not know what Wen Wan felt for him? And seeing that the Wen family didn't seem to object, Shen Wenren didn't dare to think too much about it before. But now that he had passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, even if he ranked last in the palace examination in ten days, he could be sent to serve as an official in another place, and then be promoted step by step after making achievements.

Now Shen Wenren has the confidence to accept Wen Wan, and he no longer has any psychological burden to live in the Wen family. Even if the news spreads, they will only say that the Wen family is lucky to have found a good son-in-law like him. As for Zhao Tao, if she doesn't want to be divorced, she can only be a concubine.

The Wen family is a wealthy and powerful family, and they will definitely not accept their eldest daughter as a concubine!

Shen Wenren made up his mind and took a carriage back to the Wen Mansion with Wen Wan.

When Master Wen heard that Shen Wenren had passed the imperial examination and would be preparing for the palace examination ten days later, he immediately ordered his servants to help him clean up a secluded courtyard for him to review his studies, and assigned a servant from the mansion to serve him personally.

It is not an exaggeration to say that a 19-year-old Jinshi is a child of destiny. Such a person must be won over and made one's own talent. Besides, how could he, as a father, not see his daughter's thoughts? If Mr. Shen also likes Wan'er, then he must help them!

Shen Wenren calmly accepted Master Wen's arrangement. Before noon, the servants in the mansion brought his cousin who worked as a handyman in the restaurant to the mansion.

The restaurant table was filled with delicious food and wine to celebrate Shen Wenren's success.

Shen Wenren and his cousin were treated as guests of honor at the Wen family, and both hosts and guests enjoyed the lunch very much.

Over at the rental house in the south of the city, Zhao Tao was still foolishly waiting for Shen Wenren to come back, looking out the door from time to time, and even for lunch she only had a few bites of dry steamed buns.

She hoped that Shen Wenren would be on the list, so that she could buy whatever she wanted in the future. Thinking of this, Zhao Tao's mouth couldn't help but rise a little, and she couldn't stop her joy. Even the dry bun in her mouth didn't seem so hard to swallow.

Wen Ren should be back soon, right? After lunch, Zhao Tao went outside to look around again.

Unexpectedly, she waited for so long but Shen Wenren didn't come, but Wenwan's carriage came.

Zhao Tao watched the carriage approaching curiously. The coachman put the bench in place, and the maid who served Wen Wan personally got off the carriage first, then helped Wen Wan down.

Wen Wan walked straight towards Zhao Tao, "Mrs. Shen, what are you doing outside?"

When Zhao Tao saw Wen Wan's face clearly, her face turned pale. "You, why are you here again?"

Wen Wan: "I came here to see you. I have something to say to you. Why don't we go inside and talk?"

Zhao Tao took two steps back unconsciously, feeling that Wen Wan had no good intentions in coming to see her. "No need, what can I say to you?"

"You don't have to go into the house. However, the words still need to be said. You must hold on until you finish listening!" Wen Wan nodded, and said with concern with a smile.

Zhao Tao frowned, a bad premonition arose from the bottom of her heart. She stared at Wen Wan defensively, "What are you going to say?"

"Today, Shen Lang has promised my father that he will marry me. As for you...if you are content to stay in the south of the city and don't disturb us, then I will let Shen Lang keep you as a concubine. How about that?" Wen Wan said with a proud smile: "If not, I will have to let Shen Lang divorce you and send you back to your parents' home!"
