After giving up being the wife of a powerful official, Ling Yunlu became a concubine
Chapter 68: The Number One and the Number Two
She wanted to shout at that time, you are the one with water in your brain, your whole family is the one with water in their brains!
What she didn't know was that Cao Meng had a sweetheart, the sister of his comrade-in-arms.
When Shen Yunjin told Wang Zhaozhao the news she had found out, she almost exploded with anger.
What on earth was the aunt-in-law thinking by introducing such a person to her?
Fortunately, she met Han Yang, otherwise, who knows what kind of miserable life she would have lived.
"Do you need my help Han Yang?" Shen Yunjin asked, looking at her best friend's depressed expression.
Han Yang is marrying above his station, and their family certainly cannot afford much of a dowry.
"No, he said that he would earn an imperial decree in the future as compensation for me."
Wang Zhaozhao's face was flushed red, and even the air was filled with pink bubbles.
"Tsk tsk tsk..." Shen Yunjin couldn't stand it anymore. The dog food filled her mouth.
"What do you want to make up for me? If it's not good, I don't want it!" Wang Zhaozhao quickly changed the subject.
"Alas, I am poor, so I just picked up a stone from the roadside, thinking that it can be used as a defense for you in the future."
Shen Yunjin winked and said this, and Wang Zhaozhao raised her fist and punched her best friend.
"Oh, how fickle people are. I'm being rejected." Shen Yunjin covered his chest and acted heartbroken.
Wang Zhaozhao gave Shen Yunjin a blank look and opened the box that Shen Yunjin brought.
In the box lay a large pure gold bracelet, shining brightly!
Wang Zhaozhao rubbed his eyes in disbelief.
"How about it? Do you want to dodge? If you throw this at a dog, it will hit a big bump."
Shen Yunjin took out the bracelet, which weighed heavy on his hand.
Wang Zhaozhao hugged Shen Yunjin fiercely, her eyes wet.
She knew that best friends were the most caring.
She is the youngest in the family with two older brothers, so her parents cannot give her too much money.
Most of the gifts given by relatives are gold and silver jewelry and other ornaments for women.
Coincidentally, what the Han Yang family lacks most is money.
The bracelet given by Shen Yunjin has no marks or patterns on it, so it can be cut into pieces and exchanged for cash.
Also, before, Shen Yunjin persuaded her to open a restaurant together, and she received several hundred taels of dividends every month.
Even my husband, Han Yang, was introduced to me through my best friend.
How could she deserve such a good best friend?
"Bride, don't shed tears." Shen Yunjin touched Wang Zhaozhao's hair.
"Who's crying? I just have sand in my eyes." Wang Zhaozhao raised his head and suppressed the tears in his eyes.
Shen Yunjin couldn't help laughing when she saw her best friend's arrogant look.
It’s great that my bestie will never have to go through the same old routine again.
Considering that Han Yang remained single for the sake of his beloved in his previous life, he will definitely treat Wang Zhaozhao well.
In the blink of an eye, the wedding day arrived, and Wang Zhaozhao was pulled out of bed by the matchmaker early in the morning.
When Shen Yunjin arrived, Wang Zhaozhao had just finished dressing up.
While handing the pastries made by Yuzhi to Wang Zhaozhao, she listened to her best friend's complaints.
"The groom is here to pick up the bride!" the maid outside ran around to tell everyone.
Shen Yunjin took the red veil from the matchmaker and put it on Wang Zhaozhao, then helped her out with the maid.
Shen Yunjin stood outside the hall and watched Wang Zhaozhao bid farewell to her parents and relatives, and was carried on the bridal sedan by her brother.
Sitting on the tall horse next to him was the high-spirited Han Yang.
"The auspicious time has arrived, let's move the sedan!" The sound of firecrackers rang out, Han Yang bowed to everyone, and left with the bride.
"What a perfect couple!" Jinzhi couldn't help but sigh as she supported Shen Yunjin.
Shen Yunjin couldn't help but laugh.
She remembered that on her wedding day, she entered the bridal sedan holding a big rooster.
Seeing her best friend happy, she felt as if her daughter had married off and a worry was put to rest.
Three days later, it was Wang Zhaozhao's return home day, and also the day when the autumn examination results were announced.
Shen Yunjin asked someone to wait at the yamen early in the morning so that she would know the results as soon as the list was posted.
"Concubine, Young Master Han has passed the high school entrance exam! Young Master Han has topped the high school entrance exam list!"
Shortly after the Gengshi hour, the servant brought back a message, and Yuzhi happily told Shen Yunjin the news.
"Oh? Who else is on the list?" Shen Yunjin was a little curious about Zhao Jingyan's ranking in this life.
"Oh, this is the top ten list copied by the servant." Yuzhi handed the paper in her hand to Shen Yunjin.
The top scorer was Han Yang, the second place winner was an unfamiliar name, Liu Zongyuan, and the second place winner was Zhao Jingyan.
As expected of the No. 1 scholar in the previous life, Zhao Jingyan still ranked second. It must be said that he is indeed talented.
However, this time, the best friend was very proud and slapped the faces of her relatives who had looked down on Han Yang in the past.
The families of high-ranking families in Beijing who had daughters waiting to be married all stamped their feet in regret.
This Wang Shiqing is so cunning that he actually snatched the top scholar away first.
When the family was poor, she did not despise her son-in-law's background and married her younger daughter to a man of lower status.
Now that Han Yang has been admitted to high school, he is absolutely grateful to the Wang family.
Those who had previously disdained Han Yang suddenly began to fawn over him.
After the autumn examination, round after round of thank-you banquets for teachers began in Beijing.
"Zhenxiulou" has previously promised a 20% discount on all dishes for the top ten students on the list.
Therefore, the reserved tables at "Zhenxiulou" were fully booked for the next half month.
The large restaurant “Jiuweifang” also benefited from this and booked teacher appreciation banquets for several days.
Shen Yunchu was still a little disappointed that Zhao Jingyan did not pass the imperial examination and become the top scorer. After all, he was the top scorer in the autumn examination in his previous life.
She thought it was the butterfly effect brought about by her rebirth.
She cheered herself up and prepared a farewell banquet for Zhao Jingyan.
Zhao Jingyan thought that since he was hosting the banquet at his own "Jiuweifang" restaurant, he invited everyone in his family to join the banquet.
Jia Mingzhu didn't want to be with her mother-in-law and sisters-in-law, so she left home on the pretext of having something to do.
Zhao Jingyan was waiting for the guests at the door of the "Jiuweifang" restaurant.
Suddenly, an acquaintance came over from the "Zhenxiulou" opposite.
"Isn't this Brother Jingyan? Why are you standing there? Come quickly, my brother and I are having dinner upstairs today."
The fourth prince came over, put his arm around Zhao Jingyan’s shoulder, and dragged him into the restaurant opposite.
This scene happened to be seen by Jia Mingzhu who was walking over.
She walked to the door of "Zhenxiulou" and was a little confused. Why was the name of the restaurant different from what her second uncle had mentioned?
However, she saw Zhao Jingyan and his friends walk in with her own eyes, so it might not be that she remembered it wrongly?
"Hello, sir. Are you looking for someone or ordering food?" the waiter asked.
"Oh, I'm looking for the student who just entered. His name is Zhao Jingyan."
"Oh, you mean Mr. Zhao, the runner-up? All right, I'll take you up there."
At this time, another large group of people came, "Hey, where is our reserved table?"
The guy was in a bit of a dilemma. It was very busy today and almost everyone was jogging to serve.
"Just tell me which room he is in and I can go up there myself," said Jia Mingzhu.
"Mr. Zhao is in the Tianzihao Pavilion. Please just go up from here." The waiter said and hurried to get busy.
As Jia Mingzhu and her maid walked to the door, they heard a woman speaking in a delicate voice inside.
"Congratulations to Mr. Zhao for being the runner-up in the imperial examination!"
