Master Li thought that it was a pity that Gu Yao's name and her body were not what she wanted this time.

If she ranked higher, she would definitely be able to get a place in the imperial examination next year.

She was lucky to pass the exam, and she was ranked last, so Master Li thought it was reasonable to wait another three years.

Wang Yang said regretfully after hearing this: "I was thinking of going to the Spring Examination with you, but you can go too, and you can gain experience, just like we said at the beginning."

Gu Yao shook her head: "Forget it. My health is in a bad state now. I still need to go back and take good care of myself. Besides, if the weather is bad for the spring exam next year, I'm afraid something might happen to me. I'd better wait three years. But you three sisters will definitely pass the exam next year. Then I'll take the exam again after three years. If I pass, maybe I can still rely on you."

Gu Yao had already made plans for the future, and decided to earn more money for the family in the next three years.

Although my family has some money, I suffered a lot this time and spent a lot on health care.

As the number of people in her family increased, she thought it would be okay to take a break for three years before taking the exam again.

Time quickly came to the Lu Ming Banquet, where they wore the attire of Juren and went together to the banquet hosted by the prefect.

These successful candidates were all praised by the prefect, and were even rewarded with writing brushes, ink, paper, inkstones, and silver.

They visited the Confucius Temple together, sang the Deer Singing Song, and then began to chat, eat and drink together.

Although Wang Yang and the other three were all juren, their rankings were not high, so they did not attract much attention from others.

The most prominent one was Jie Yuan, a famous talented woman in the provincial capital. She could recite the Three Character Classic at the age of three and read the Four Books and Five Classics at the age of four. She could be said to be a child prodigy.

The candidate who passed the exam this time was really young and promising. Gu Yao was amazed at the tall, fair-skinned and beautiful candidate in front of her.

This is a pure ancient prodigy. It turns out that even if she traveled through time, she could not compare to the ancient people.

But she was also quite contented. After all, she had become a juren now and was still a favored child in the county.

Not many people cared about them, and Gu Yao was quite happy. After all, most of these people were daughters of wealthy families, and as common people, it was better for them not to seek attention.

Moreover, the food at this banquet was very delicious, and there was even some wine that she had never drunk before. She tasted it and found it a bit spicy. It turned out that she was not used to drinking.

But these foods were delicious, and she ate so much that her stomach was full.

Wang Yang saw her like this and smiled, “Ayao, you still like delicious food.”

Gu Yao wiped her mouth and said embarrassedly: "The food here is really delicious, Sister Wang, please try it. We finally get to attend the Luming Feast, so don't waste this opportunity."

After attending the Lu Ming Banquet, Gu Yao became more familiar with the women in the provincial capital. She thought that it seemed right for her not to attend next year. The women in the provincial capital were full of hidden talents, so wouldn't it be even more so in the capital?

She didn't want to be a cannon fodder, lest she would suffer physically and mentally, which would be a waste of time.

county seat.

The Gu family was very worried that day. Father Gu said, "Head of the family, I don't know if A Yao can pass the imperial examination. In fact, it doesn't matter whether she can pass or not. I just hope she can come back safely."

Moreover, Gu Yao went to the provincial capital, and as a father, of course I hope she can come back safely.

In Gu's father's mind, his daughter is already a scholar, so there is no need for her to work too hard. A scholar can also bring honor to the family.

So he was not in a hurry, he just wanted his daughter to come home.

Mother Gu said, "Ayao will definitely pass the exam. Let's wait a little longer. Maybe we will get the good news soon."

Lin Wulang and Lin Liulang were holding the child and playing with him, chatting with Gu's father and others.

Especially seeing that Father Gu looked worried, they tried to persuade him again and asked him to look after the two children.

Father Gu looked at his granddaughter and grandson with great joy, and held Gu Ping in his arms and teased him, "Little Gu Ping, your mother will be back soon, are you happy? When your mother comes back, I will ask her to buy you lots of delicious food, okay?"

Lin Liulang watched Gu's father teasing Gu Ping, and felt a little uncomfortable that his own Gu Ning was ignored.

In fact, he knew that his father-in-law disliked that he had given birth to a boy, but as long as his wife cared about it, it would be fine.

Gu Yun heard a voice coming from outside and cheered, "Mom, there seems to be someone outside to announce good news. Did my sister pass the imperial examination?"

Since Gu Yun and her friends moved to the county town with their family, they found an embroidery workshop in the county town to learn.

What's more, they are both smart. After studying in the county for a period of time, their skills are still solid. Moreover, there is also the Su family in the county. They just moved to another place.

After arriving in the county town, the two became even more elegant, and one could tell at first glance that they were men from scholarly families.

They can even recognize words in the embroidery room, so they are both considered to have some talent and are no longer the uneducated men in Gujia Village.

And as Gu Yao became a scholar, their interests also rose and they both wanted to introduce good families to them.

Mother Gu knew that if her daughter A Yao passed the imperial examination, her two sons would marry better.

So I didn't respond to the matchmakers' plans.

Gu Yun and the others also knew that they had a good status in the county because of their sister. So when they heard some crackling sounds outside, they knew that their sister had passed the imperial examination.

As the horns became louder and louder, Gu's mother and father hurried out and watched the people from the yamen walking towards them with gongs and drums, while more and more people around them were congratulating them.

"Madam Gu, congratulations, your eldest wife passed the imperial examination, and these adults are here to congratulate you."

Mother Gu still pinched her palms hard. She didn't expect that her daughter really became a juren.

Although she knew that her daughter was very capable, she was a juren.

Lin Wulang laughed excitedly and said, "Mom, we still have to give these adults wedding money."

When they were scholars, they also gave rewards to the yamen and the people around them.

After hearing what Lin Wulang said, Gu's mother quickly took out the purse from her sleeve and handed it to the yamen runners.

The yamen runners were happy to see the reward money. They didn't expect that these seemingly insignificant people could actually give it. It seems that the families who can pass the imperial examination are also wealthy.

Although their house is a little small, it is still good and not shabby.

Father Gu had already asked his servants to bring a basket of copper coins outside and throw the coins to the people who were watching.
