After nine days of exams, Yun Tingqing dragged his tired body out of the examination room, as if all the strength in his body had been drained away, and staggered towards the inn.

As soon as he returned to his room, he didn't even bother to wash up before falling headfirst into bed and falling into a deep sleep. He didn't wake up until noon the next day. Meanwhile, Fang Jingyan's situation wasn't much better, but he still got up a little earlier than Fang Jingyan. When Yun Tingqing came downstairs, he had already started eating.

Seeing Yun Tingqing coming down, Fang Jingyan immediately ordered the waiter to add two more dishes and a set of bowls and chopsticks. Yun Tingqing sat down without hesitation, and the two of them silently enjoyed this unusually quiet meal.

Only after they had eaten and drunk their fill did they truly feel like they were alive again.

Fang Jingyan put down his chopsticks and said to Yun Tingqing with gratitude, "Tingqing, thank you so much this time! The food you gave me was a lifesaver! I saw many people being carried out after four days of taking the exam. If it weren't for the food you gave me, I'm afraid I wouldn't have been able to hold on until the last moment."

"Brother Fang, you're welcome. You've taken great care of me along the way." Yun Tingqing knew full well that Fang Jingyan had given more than anything else. Furthermore, almost all of their travel expenses had been covered by Fang Jingyan. Therefore, if he didn't give Fang Jingyan more, he would feel deeply guilty and uneasy.

"Tingqing, do you have any more of this? This little green water is amazing!" Fang Jingyan took out an empty little green water bottle and asked Yun Tingqing curiously. However, Yun Tingqing was not sure about the answer to this question. So, he answered honestly: "I'm not sure either. I'll ask for you when I get home."

"This thing is amazing! Whenever I feel sleepy, I just put it under my nose and smell it gently, and I will feel refreshed instantly. Thanks to this little green water, otherwise I would not be able to complete my exam. By the way, Tingqing, how did you do in this exam?" Fang Jingyan asked Yun Tingqing with great interest.

Yun Tingqing smiled faintly and replied, "I performed normally." In fact, he knew deep down that the little green water did have magical effects. Besides the food preparation, the little green water might be one of the key factors in his success in this exam.

When Fang Jingyan heard Yun Tingqing say this, he knew that he was basically sure to pass the exam. After all, Yun Tingqing was the dean's most valued disciple.

"Brother Fang, when are we going to go home?" Yun Tingqing treated Fang Jingyan a bit like his little niece, so he asked.

"I plan to buy some things for my parents and go back after I'm done. Will you come with me?" Fang Jingyan asked Yun Tingqing.

Yun Tingqing thought about it and realized that he still had some money given by his mother and wanted to buy some small gifts for his family, so he nodded to Fang Jingyan, and the two of them went to the market in the county together.

He looked at all these things and felt that they were too expensive. Finally, he picked and chose and only bought a pair of exquisite headbands for his little niece. Seeing these beautiful headdresses, Yun Tingqing could imagine that Tiantian must look very cute wearing them. However, he did not have that much money. When he had money in the future, he would definitely buy Tiantian a lot of things.

Fang Jingyan saw Yun Tingqing pick out something and knew it was for the little girl. Suddenly, she remembered that he mentioned her little niece, so when she was shopping, she also bought some things for the little girl. When she went to Yun Tingqing's house, she would give it to her little niece.

After they bought their things, they just returned to the inn and saw that the coachman had harnessed the carriage and the servant had put all the luggage on the carriage. Then the two of them got in the carriage and started heading home.

I feel anxious when I leave home, but happy when I return home.

On the way home, Yun Tingqing and Fang Jingyan talked about their future plans. Fang Jingyan said, "He doesn't want to continue taking the imperial examinations. He doesn't want to be an official."

Yun Tingqing strongly supports Fang Jingyan's choice. Not everyone is like him, who insists on taking the imperial examination. Fang Jingyan's family is rich, so he has room for choice, but he doesn't. He can only continue to take the imperial examination. This way, he will not disappoint his family's expectations of him, nor his own ambitions.

The two of them chatted happily, and a few days passed quickly. Before they knew it, the carriage had arrived in town. The servant asked, "Master, are you going home directly?"

Fang Jingyan was still thinking about visiting Yun Tingqing's house, so he said to the servant, "Go home first and report your safety, then come to Yunjia Village to find me."

The servant jumped off the carriage and walked towards Fang's house, while the coachman drove the carriage to Yunjia Village. Yun Tingqing asked the coachman to go around and park the carriage directly at the door of the backyard.

Yun Tingqing brought Fang Jingyan back to the Yun family from the backyard, but there was no one in the backyard. Yun Tingqing estimated that everyone was working in the fields at this time, so he took Fang Jingyan to his room and rested for a while.

Yun Tingqing opened the door when he heard voices in the yard. As soon as he opened the door, he saw Tiantian and Pippi holding hands and looking at the chicks, muttering something.

Yun Tingqing and Fang Jingyan approached quietly and heard the two little kids discussing how to eat this little chicken. Fang Jingyan was really embarrassed and Yun Tingqing looked at Fang Jingyan embarrassedly.

But Fang Jingyan ignored Yun Tingqing. His eyes were full of the cute little ball squatting on the ground. He really wanted to steal it home!

Tiantian turned around and suddenly saw a strange brother and her third uncle. She immediately smiled cutely, and you could vaguely see her dimples: "Third uncle, you're back."

Yun Tingqing opened his arms and hugged Tiantian tightly, while Tiantian obediently leaned her little head in the warm embrace of her uncle.

"Tiantian, do you miss your uncle?" Yun Tingqing asked softly, his eyes full of pampering.

"Yes!" she replied sweetly and crisply. To show how much she missed him, she kissed Yun Tingqing on the cheek, causing a wet puddle of saliva to flow. However, Yun Tingqing didn't care at all. His face was still filled with a happy smile as he gazed tenderly at the adorable little creature in his arms.

"Tiantian, this guy is your Third Uncle's good friend. You can call him Uncle Fang." Fang Jingyan, standing nearby, smiled and introduced himself to Tiantian. Originally, Fang Jingyan had intended for Tiantian to call him Brother Fang, but considering the generational difference between him and Yun Tingqing, he ultimately decided to have Tiantian call him Uncle Fang.

Tiantian blinked her eyes and looked Fang Jingyan up and down curiously. This handsome young man exuded the aura of a wealthy family, which made Tiantian sigh that there was no shortage of rich people in this small town! She smiled innocently and said to Fang Jingyan in a childish voice, "Hello, Uncle Fang!"

When Fang Jingyan heard Tiantian's name, a warm feeling welled up in his heart. He felt that Tiantian was just like the sister of his dreams. Her lovely appearance and sweet voice almost melted his heart. He quickly took out the carefully prepared gift from his pocket and handed it to Tiantian, saying affectionately, "Tiantian, this is a gift from your uncle. I hope you like it."

Seeing that it was a beautiful ornament, Tiantian didn't refuse it. She took it in her hand and said thank you to Fang Jingyan. Although she preferred food as a gift, she was very happy to receive a gift. However, she still felt a little regretful. It would be even better if she could receive a delicious gift. After all, her brother didn't have any!

Yun Tingqing, watching this scene from the side, felt somewhat displeased. He felt Fang Jingyan's behavior was extremely suspicious. How could he have known that Tiantian liked such jewelry? Moreover, he had actually prepared the gift before him, which made Yun Tingqing very unhappy. He couldn't help but doubt Fang Jingyan's intentions. Could he have some intention towards Tiantian? Thinking of this, Yun Tingqing became even more wary of Fang Jingyan.

Unexpectedly, Fang Jingyan left Yun Tingqing's house in the evening and set off on the road home. Yun Tingqing looked at his departing back, muttering something in his heart, but then he changed his mind and decided to give the gift to Tiantian first.

"Tiantian, this is what your uncle bought for you." Yun Tingqing took out an exquisite box and handed it to Tiantian.

Tiantian took the box, opened it, and saw a pair of very delicate pink hair flowers inside. She jumped for joy and said quickly, "Wow, so beautiful! Thank you, Uncle San!"

Yun Tingqing smiled and said, "You're welcome. This is specially picked for you by your uncle. I hope you like it."

Tiantian excitedly picked up the hairpin, looked left and right, and then said to Yun Tingqing, "Uncle San, help Tiantian put it on."

Seeing Tiantian's reaction, Yun Tingqing was also very satisfied. He was a little worried that Tiantian would not like this gift, but now it seems that his worries were completely unnecessary.

"Okay, Third Uncle will help our Tiantian put it on." Seeing that Tiantian was no longer wearing the hairpin and looked unhappy, Yun Tingqing felt relieved and gently put the hairpin on Tiantian.

"Does it look good?" Tiantian couldn't see herself, but she still asked conceitedly.

"Beautiful." Yun Tingqing looked at the little ball of milk in front of him. His own Tiantian was the most beautiful child in the world.

Seeing the flower on her sister's head, Pipi also put her head under Yun Tingqing's hand and said, "Uncle, wear it."

Tiantian handed the hair accessory Uncle Fang had just given her to her Third Uncle, saying, "Uncle, wear it."

"Okay, Uncle San will help Pippi wear it too."

The brother and sister showed off in front of everyone in the Yun family and received a lot of praise before happily returning to their room to sleep.
