To support exiled officials, start by worshipping the God of Wealth

Chapter 143 Why did you get full marks in math? You definitely cheated!

Mrs. Lu couldn't stay at home. She had a small quarrel every day and a big quarrel every five days.

After the first and second wives quarreled, the couple quarreled again. She had a headache and lost hope in this family. She still remembered the harm caused to her by her eldest son.

And the warmth that Ah Su gave her.

When she reached Jiu's house, she happened to run into the grandparents and grandchildren who were going to Yuan's house for dinner. She asked politely, "Can I come in and sit down?"

Aunt Yuan nodded, "Come on."

I fried two dishes today and the staple food was white steamed buns.

Being with these old ladies, Mrs. Lu regained her appetite. She understood the cause and effect of the matter and sighed, "Su'er is a good child."

It’s just that I don’t have a good mother’s family or a good husband’s family.

Jiumu's hands trembled slightly, and she spoke a few words with difficulty: "Can I let my poor grandson come to eat with me? Didn't Jiusu give you silver?"

Aunt Yuan's face darkened.

Putting down the chopsticks in her hand, she said in a bad tone: "Don't even think about it. Jiusu asked you to take care of you, Qian Junjie asked you to take care of your granddaughter, your grandson is naughty and makes trouble, your son and daughter-in-law are greedy and lazy, and they have squandered all the money you and your husband left behind. Why do you still care about them?"

Mrs. Lu also advised, "We are all old, don't worry about them. I have lived with Su'er for a long time. She is kind-hearted and knows right from wrong. As long as you break off your relationship with the Jiu family, she will definitely accept you."

Jiu Mu shook her head and choked with sobs.

"I'm different from you. If you go with Jiusu, your family won't be in turmoil. You have a son who is a general, so you won't have to worry about anything in your life. If I leave, what will happen to Jiugui? They will starve to death."

Aunt Yuan sneered and asked directly: "What effect can your presence or absence have?"

Jiu Mu looked lonely. She put down her chopsticks, picked up Zhi Shu, and was about to leave.

"From now on, we won't come here to eat. This is our fate."

-

There are still two days left before the clothing holiday ends. Many students have returned to school early. There is no atmosphere for studying at home. A two-day sprint will definitely meet the teacher's requirements.

Fang Yu and Qian Yuanming came to meet Jiang Jing.

Jiusu prepared snacks for the three of them, and Jiang Jing also brought warm clothes. He put the dark black cloak in the closet and was reluctant to take it out.

In the dormitory, he must have been murdered.

She said, "Study hard."

"Okay, wait until I pass the imperial examination." Jiang Jing smiled at her. He picked up his package and took the Fang family's carriage to go to the academy.

Fang Yu touched his shoulder and asked, "Oh, oh, oh, what's the point of taking the imperial examination?"

Jiang Jing chuckled, not being fooled by him, and slowly uttered two words.

"Be an official."

But he is still a convict and is not eligible to take the imperial examinations, let alone become an official. Now he can only hope that the emperor will show leniency so that he can climb out of the quagmire.

When enemies meet, there is murderous intent all around.

Xiang Ke looked at Jiang Jing who got off the carriage and mocked him intentionally or unintentionally: "In this world, even fugitives can ride in carriages. It's true that pretty boys are different."

Zhu Qian paused. How come he could meet him even though he came to the academy two days in advance?

He said lightly, "Just like you, your face is darker than the bottom of a pot."

Dean Lan stood at the entrance of the academy.

No one dared to speak rudely anymore. Everyone held their anger, greeted the dean politely, went into the dormitory, and studied hard.

Master Yan smiled and said, "What a lively guy! Who will be the first in the exam this year?"

Dean Lan guessed.

"It's either Jiang Jing or Xiang Honglang."

Xiang Honglang is the student with the best grades in all subjects in the academy. He is only fifteen years old, but he studies hard. He has become a scholar at a young age. Next year, he can take part in the imperial examination and may get first place.

He is also a genius that the academy only sees once in ten years.

Master Yan stroked his beard and said, "Jiang Jing was just one step away from the palace examination. Unfortunately, his family encountered an unexpected change. Otherwise, he should have been the top scholar two years ago, right?"

Dean Lan smiled and said, "Everything is fate."

As students entered the college one after another, Jiusu was notified to work overtime at the college to answer questions that students did not understand. Her gentle and delicate way of solving problems moved many students.

A student asked: "Master Jiu, do you have someone you like?

"Got it." Jiusu looked outside and saw a man standing in the crowd. Hey! A Jing is so handsome and has a good figure.

The student seemed a little disappointed.

It was not until dark that the students gradually dispersed.

Jiang Jing carried a long plate and waited until everyone had left before he went in and placed the food on the table. He said, "I brought the food from the cafeteria. I wonder if it suits your taste. If you don't like it, I'll go to the restaurant with you and take you home later."

Jiusu doesn't mind the food.

She bit her steamed bun and asked, "Can you come and go in the academy as you please? Jiang, why don't you come and ask me questions today?"

Jiang Jing said: "Yes."

Jiusu raised his eyebrows. Is this the top student?

After Jiang Jing sent Jiusu home, he immediately returned to the academy. As soon as he pushed the door open, he saw Xiang Ke's vicious eyes. He ignored them and wanted to laugh.

Where did Xiang Ke get the confidence to bet with him?

Two days later, the exam officially began.

There were two teachers invigilating each session. Teacher Yan sat in the front reading ancient Chinese texts, while Jiusu hid in the back reading novels. They finally got through a day and a half of invigilation.

In the afternoon, Jiusu looked at the test paper quickly.

Because arithmetic problems have standard answers, they are quicker to read, unlike ancient Chinese where grades are given according to reason.

The students of the academy also had an afternoon off, but they didn’t dare to play. Perhaps they were really studying, or perhaps they were making up for the inexplicable guilt after the exam.

No matter whether he was studying sincerely or not, Jiusu was extremely sleepy.

I went to the Master's resting place and had a good sleep.

The next day, Jiusu just woke up and heard the discussion outside. He randomly asked a student, and found out that the list was out.

She asked, "Dean, who among them did well in the exam?"

Dean Lan was holding a teacup and moved his chin forward, motioning her to look ahead. "They're almost fighting. You can tell who did well by looking at their faces."

The two walked over one after the other.

The entire academy knew about this bet, so as soon as the list was released, both students and teachers came out to watch the fun.

Xiang Ke's face darkened: "Jiang Jing, how come you got full marks in math? You must have cheated!"

Jiang Jing glanced at the results on the list indifferently.

"It seems that there are only four or five people who didn't get full marks? You are one of them."

The questions Ah Su asked were very simple. One-third of them involved shuffled calculations of the multiplication table, the other half involved multiplication of several digits, and the rest were some simple questions and answers and calculation problems.

Xiang Ke gritted his teeth, he didn't know how to refute this fact. He didn't want to leave the academy, so he could only argue with reason.

"You actually got second place in Master Yan's class. How is that possible? Master Yan must have given you a backdoor!"

Master Yan took the ruler and slapped him on the back: "Do you believe that I can beat you into a door? I am upright. Besides, Xiang Honglang is the first one. His insights are unique. Jiang Jing only needs one more palace examination to compete for the top spot. He was ranked second, which was considered a poor performance."
