After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Fang Nanzhi ran to look for her brother, but found that he had gone to do his homework, so she had no choice but to turn around and look for Aunt Qian.

Qin Yan held the book, listened to his sister's chattering in the yard, and shook his head helplessly.

When he returned to the academy, he would go to the dean and talk to him about Zhizhi. She must have too little schoolwork, which was why she was so happy every day.

Qian Fengping was called into the yard. Seeing the two "things" piled up in the snow, she was also stunned for a moment: "What is this..."

Fang Tong reminded: "It's the lion at the city gate."

She was also shocked.

Of course she knew what stone lions looked like, but these two... she really didn't recognize them.

After pondering for a while, she finally spoke: "I think they are all good. Second brother's look is very imposing, and he really has the majesty of a beast king."

"This one, Zhizhi... is also very good. Even the details of the claws are well-made..."

She picked out the strengths of both of them and praised them, without mentioning the weird thing at all, which made Fang Tong stunned.

Fang Nanzhi was so happy to hear that, she rushed to her and said, "Haha, Aunt is really good. My dad is not so good. I'm afraid he can't even remember what a lion looks like, and can't even tell the difference!"

Qian Fengping suppressed her laughter, cupped her little face with her hands and rubbed it: "Very good, winter is coming, let's do it for good luck, go back to the house and warm up, auntie will go heat up some milk..."

The family was having a great time when suddenly they heard the sound of gongs and drums outside, and it sounded like there were quite a few people there.

They looked at each other, and Fang Tong was just about to go out to see what was going on when Cheng Dafu happened to pass by their house.

"Hey, what are you doing? Let's go take a look together!"

"What's wrong?"

"The results of the provincial examination are out!" Cheng Dafu was a little surprised. "You didn't know? Your elder brother, no, your cousin, passed the examination and became a Tongsheng! The yamen runners are beating gongs and drums as they go to the Fang family to deliver the news!"

This really shocked the whole family. Even Qin Yan came out of the room pushing a wheelchair with a look of surprise on his face.

Fang Tong was stunned: My goodness, is God so blind?

No, you can’t scold the gods. They have helped the two children in the family a lot!

This is really... a blind cat catches a dead mouse!

Fang Nanzhi was curious and chased to the door: "How many names does your cousin have?"

"Bottom of the list!" Cheng Dafu said this and ran out, looking anxious to watch the fun.

The yamen runners came to the village to deliver good news. This is something that only happens once in many years!

Qin Yan frowned slightly. What he cared more about was why Qin Shucai was not mentioned.

Could it be that my cousin didn’t win?

The family members looked at each other, but none of them wanted to watch the fun. The fun at the Fang family was not something to watch. They all agreed that the time had come and it was time to eat.

The sky is big and the earth is big, and eating is the biggest thing.

As Fang Tong brought the food into the house, he was still thinking that he couldn't go even if he didn't want to eat. He could already imagine the smug faces of that family. What was he going for? To show his support for them?

To outsiders, the family seemed calm enough at this moment, especially because of the relationship between them. It would not be surprising if Fang Tong stood at the door and cursed a few words.

But the family was calm.

At most, when eating, Fang Tong couldn't help but picked up a piece of food for Qin Yan and another piece of food for his daughter.

"You two should study hard. Brother Yan will take part in the next imperial examination, and so will you, my daughter. You can do whatever you want in the future. Become a shopkeeper and make a lot of money!"

Qin Yan: “…”

How come he remembered what I told him before, that he would become a shopkeeper after studying?

It seemed different from what was agreed, which made him feel a bit burdened.

This family just feels a little subtly uncomfortable, which is human nature.

What was even more uncomfortable was the Qin clan leader's family.

Little He sat beside Qin Shucai's bed. When she heard the news, she couldn't believe it at first, but then she kept crying.

"You've been sick since you came out of the examination hall, and now you've failed..."

She can't be a Tongsheng mother anymore!

The more expectations she had before, the more disappointed she is now. She simply cannot bear the gap and has been crying until now.

Qin Shucai, lying on the bed, looked slightly pale. Indeed, he had seen a doctor and taken medicine in the past few days, but his health did not improve.

Now seeing his mother crying like this, he still had to hold up his body to comfort her.

"Mom, I'm still young, I can't force it."

Patriarch Qin stood at the entrance with his hands behind his back and sighed.

"Don't cry, let Shucai have a good rest. Shucai, don't be too sad. You are young and you can take the exam again next time. Failing once is nothing."

Qin Shucai nodded. No matter how big the conflict between him and his grandfather was before, he really didn't have the energy to think more about it now.

At least his current attitude made him feel much better than his mother's. He had ranked low in the county examination and had always felt that his hope of passing the prefectural examination was slim.

The most important thing is that he was already sick during the last session of the provincial examination and he was forced to finish it.

He was calm, but the Qin family was upset.

Patriarch Qin was just holding back and thinking deeply, but his father didn't have that kind of personality.

Qin Gaofei had been drinking alone in the yard.

He was just bragging a few days ago, how can he face people now?

My son is not doing well!

Some are happy while others are sad. The Fang family is really happy today, even a little silly with joy.

Fang Qingtian borrowed a gong from the village and ran around the village beating it. The two brothers were extremely happy.

They are the sons of Tongsheng!

Old Master Fang smiled so hard that his teeth were showing. He stuffed the silver and money in his purse into the yamen runners. This was the first time in his life that he was so generous, except for his eldest son.

What's a little money? His son can continue to take the imperial examinations in the future. Not to mention this, he knows that the money he spent on his son over the years will be returned one day.

He is always right!

The Fang family finally got their reward after all the suffering!

For the villagers, today's events were both unexpected and non-unexpected, but they were definitely a good thing. Only when people with achievements emerge from the village will it benefit the entire village.

Many people in the village came to congratulate him, regardless of whether their feelings were sincere or not, because this was a big event in the village.

Fang Qingya changed into her best clothes and followed Fang Jin, watching the villagers keep entering the Fang family.

She really didn't expect this situation.

Her cheap adoptive father was actually quite useful.

However, the title of "Tongsheng" is still a bit low. It would be best if everything goes so smoothly in the future. At least I can pass the exam and become a Juren or Xiucai.

When the time comes, when she returns to the Earl's Mansion, it can be considered that she is returning from a farming and scholarly family, so it won't sound too bad.

Thinking of this, the smile on her face could no longer be maintained.

It had been so long, what on earth were the Bo family waiting for? Why hadn't they come to pick her up yet? It would be a lie to say she wasn't suspicious at all.

If the Bo Mansion was just delayed by something, she wouldn't be anxious, but there should at least be a written or verbal message.

You shouldn't just ignore it like this.
