The gentleman is knocking on the door

Chapter 214 Second

"Brother, you must have hit it!" Mi Congcong laughed.

"We won't know until Brother Mo comes up." Before getting the exact news, Mida dared not be too happy.

As soon as Mi Dagang finished speaking, Mo Qi pushed the door in and said with a smile, "I got hit, No.2!"

Just as the stone in Mi Da's heart fell to the ground, he just showed a happy smile when he saw Lou Chenxiao's disappointed face: "What a pity!"

Mi Congcong glanced at him angrily: "What's the pity of No.2?"

"Yeah, I'm already very satisfied with No.2." Mi Dagang said.

He was also worried that he would fail the exam, and it was a surprise to have such a good result now.

"I'm still looking forward to my brother getting a three-yuan prize." Lou Chenxiao said with a wave of his fan.

After hearing this, Mi Dagang first laughed: "In the Wuqing Dynasty, I have never heard of a Sanyuan Jidi."

There were not many in the previous dynasty, but that was already a long way off, and his brother-in-law's expectations of him were so high that he was ashamed.

"That's right, it's pretty good to be second in the exam!" Mi Congcong was as satisfied as his brother.

She had never participated in her brother's affairs in her previous life, and she will never miss any major events in her brother's life in this life!
"Uncle, the people from the government should come to Zhoujia Village to announce the good news soon. Let's go back to Zhoujia Village after eating." Mo Qi couldn't help reminding them when he saw that the people were not in a hurry.

"It's too late, Mo Qi, pack this meal. Let's go to the street to buy some melon seeds and candies first. My brother passed the No. 2 exam. There must be a lot of folks coming home to congratulate me!" Annoyed, they have to rush back to give rewards to those who announce the good news. Mother and Uncle Zhou have no money in their hands. If they can't even get the reward money, it will be embarrassing for brother.

"Grandma, the young master has already ordered us to buy sweets, pastries and food, and we have all loaded into the car." Xiuxin walked in from the outside, and the joyful Chao Mida just knelt slightly: "Congratulations, young master, high school!"

"Thank you!" Mida just smiled, but didn't make any further moves.

Mi Congcong hurriedly handed over a purse, Mi Da was stunned for a moment, then took the purse embarrassingly and handed it to Xiuxin.

"There are rewards!"

Lou Chenxiao gave his daughter-in-law a look, and Mi Congcong smiled and handed out a few purses. Not only Xiuxin Xiuzi and Mo Qi, but also the driver waiting outside and Xiao Er who was waiting in the private room also received rewards.

After packing the meals, a group of people and two carriages headed for Zhoujia Village together.

Passing by the place where the list was posted, Mida just lifted the curtain of the car to look out, and happened to see two scholars standing in front of the list, hugging their heads and crying, and sighed with sympathy.

How many people study hard in the cold window, but in the end it is all for nothing?

Just like my cousin Mi Dayuan, who failed the government test this time, was beaten badly, and threatened to drop out of school and go home to farm.

When the group arrived at Aukou outside Zhoujia Village, the sound of firecrackers was being heard in the village.

"The one who announces the good news is one step ahead of us."

Mi Congcong jumped off the carriage with a smile, and entered the village with his brother, while Mo Qi and Xiuxin stayed behind to carry things.

"Da Gang is back, Da Gang is back!" someone shouted excitedly seeing Mi Da Gang's figure.

Although Mi Dagang is not a native of Zhoujia Village, he got along very well with the people in Zhoujia Village in the past few years. In addition, he is the only person in the village who can study. The three-year-old children respect him very much. Now that he has passed the examination of scholar, the whole village feels that his face is honored.

"Hey, Mi Xiucai is back!" The two officials who announced the good news said with flattering smiles, "Congratulations Mi Xiucai."

You know, this Mi Dagang is the second in the college examination, no one can tell where he will go in the future, the smiles on the faces of the two officials are almost flattering.

Mida just rewarded the two of them: "The two big brothers have worked hard, please go to the house and have a cup of tea and rest."

"Then bother you." The two officials weighed the purses in their hands, feeling that the weight was heavy, they couldn't help but smile and rolled their eyes.

When they first saw the two shabby houses, they guessed that they could receive two bowls of tea rewards at most this trip, but considering that Mi Da just came in second in the courtyard test, they took it as a gift Shan Yuan, I didn't expect them to be so generous in closing their hands. With this amount, the reward should not be less than that of ordinary wealthy families.

The house was too small, so Mrs. Liang borrowed tables and stools from several nearby villagers' homes and put them at the gate, served tea, and took out the candies, melon seeds and pastries brought by her daughter and son-in-law and handed them out one by one.

"Liang Shi, Changchun, Dagang passed the examination as a scholar, and you are considered to have made it through." The villagers said proudly and enviously.

"Yes," a villager lamented, "Your good days have just begun after the hardships have come."

This court got the second place in the examination, it shouldn't be difficult to find a candidate in Chunwei next year, then the Liang family will be more expensive than mother and son, and Zhou Changchun will follow suit.

"Who said no?"

At first, the folks in Zhoujia Village felt that Zhou Changchun was at a loss for marrying a woman he had divorced and bringing such a big son. Now it seems that Zhou Changchun took advantage of it. Mi Dagang is a filial person. When Zhou Changchun became a high official, he also enjoyed the blessings.

As soon as the two officials who announced the good news left, the people from the Liang family also arrived.

"Da Gang, Uncle just received the good news that you got the second place in the college exam!" Liang Hanxing, the boss of the Liang family, patted his nephew on the shoulder with satisfaction: "As expected, Uncle was not disappointed!"

Hearing another person reiterate the words "Second in the college examination", Mi Dagang smiled helplessly: "Uncle, there are quite a few people who have passed the examination in Feiyu County."

"There are quite a few people who pass the examination as a scholar, but you are No.2. This is a real talent. No one dares to say that you are just trying your luck." Liang Hanxing said very concerned.

Those who are ranked in the bottom are generally lucky. It is hard to say whether there is any real information. If Da Gang's luck can be better, maybe he will win the first place this time.

Mida just smiled, and didn't argue with his uncle again: "Uncle, sit down."

Mrs. Liang moved a chair for her eldest brother, and then saw Liang Hanxing followed by a middle-aged man who looked like a housekeeper. This man was not a servant of the Liang family, and he was holding a gift box in his hand, apparently to congratulate him. After a pause, Liang asked, "Brother, who is this?"

"Hi, my wife." I am the housekeeper of the Lin Mansion. My master heard that my uncle got the second place in the college entrance examination, so he specially sent me to congratulate him. "The butler of the Lin family presented the gift box respectfully, smiling broadly.

Come to another courtyard to take the second test.

Mida just shook his head and laughed.

It seems that many people around him, like Zi Rui, were disappointed because he didn't win No.1, right?

When Mrs. Liang heard it, it turned out that it was from her daughter-in-law's family who had never been in the family, and hurriedly said: "So it's from my in-laws, my in-laws are so polite! Brother housekeeper, please sit down, please sit down!"
