Chapter 391 Various happy events

"So valuable?" Jiang Ning was a little surprised.

Xu Xu didn't say much and just asked someone to bring the set of December flower hostas for her to see.

The hosta is shiny all over, with clear texture and exquisite and elegant patterns. At first glance, it looks like it could catch the eye of a noble lady. Such a set of hostas cannot cost 1,800 taels each.

Jiang Ning breathed a sigh of relief, turned his eyes slightly, and said, "If Zhenniang in your workshop can spare some time, she can help her make some more jade bracelets, hairpins, and seals. The Huang family will have to arrange a few seals. There are also King Xiaoyao, Prime Minister Sun, and others who are close to us."

Xi promised to send someone to make arrangements immediately.

When she returned to the house, she heard a loud snore coming from the house as soon as she reached the door.

Jade bracelet whispered beside her: "Second young madam, the second young master seems to be exhausted! Just now, the servant asked Rui Rui for inquiries. He said that the second young master did well in the exam, and he might be able to pass! If he passes, the second young master will be a candidate for the exam. Yes! You are the lady who lifts people!

According to the laws of our State of Qi, you can become an official by raising a person. Even if you are not a high official like the capital, you can still be a county magistrate. You can also be the county magistrate's wife in the future. "

Jade bracelet had a longing look on her face. In her opinion, the county magistrate was a high official. At least most ordinary people only knew about the county magistrate, and not even the prefect.

Xu Nuoyan touched his belly and glanced at him funny, "This is the Yang family of Guangenhou Mansion. I don't want the second young lady of Guangenhou Mansion to become the county magistrate? What are you thinking!"

Jade bracelet was silly and cheerful, "Second Young Madam, I'm thinking that in the future, the eldest house in the Marquis Mansion will be the successor. If the second young master has an official position, our second ward will not be far behind the eldest house."

She was chosen by Xu Nuoyan from Ren Yazi. The life she lived before was not a human life at all. Now her life is excellent. She is full of gratitude to Xu Nuoyan and naturally hopes that Xu Nuoyan will be better and better. Only her master is good. Yes, she is better qualified as a maid.

Xu Nuoyan shook his head, "Even if the second young master doesn't have an official position, our second wife's life will not be worse than that of the first wife. Things like titles are just superficial glory and have no real power. You need to be capable to be serious."

Speaking, she walked into the house.

Yang Erdan slept until noon of the next day. When he woke up, he felt refreshed and couldn't rest at all, so he ran to the brick kiln in the east of the city again.

When I got there, I found that Yang Fugui was already working.

He walked over, squatted down, and asked, "Do you still want to continue the exam?"

Yang Fugui nodded heavily, "Second cousin, I have thought carefully about what the aunt said. I already have the reputation of being a scholar. This was something I never dared to think about before, but I really did it. Three years later , I will definitely win Qiu Wei and become a candidate. Now I just want to work hard and make money. Can I work here during the day and go to Liang’s house to study with Uncle Liang at night?”

He has not made any money for several months, and he has been living and dining in Dongli Villa. Although no one said anything or even thought about it, he cannot take it for granted. He has not made any money and will send it back to the village this year. Dad can't even take out his money, so that's not okay.

Yang Erdan knew that he had a strong self-esteem, so he nodded immediately and grinned according to his wishes, "In this way, you can come here earlier and leave after eating here at the moment. You can also buy more time to practice calligraphy and earn money. It’s the same as before, if you do a good job, you’ll get your share!”

“Thank you, second cousin!” Yang Fugui smiled and narrowed his eyes.

Looking at his happy look, Yang Erdan burst into laughter.

He checked the brick kiln and found that everything was in order and he didn't need to worry about it at all. In this way, he could really rest assured and leave it to Yang Fugui and the others.

On the day when the results will be released in autumn.

Jiang Ning and Mrs. Mingsan got together at dawn. They kept talking about not being nervous, but in fact they were more nervous than anyone else.

Xu Nuo promised to wait for the news together. Seeing the two of them looking anxious, he realized that something was wrong with his stomach. But everyone was staring at the door, and no one noticed her at all.

Xu Nuoyan gritted his teeth and said, "Mom, I... I think I'm about to give birth!"

Jiang Ning was so shocked that he jumped up on the spot. He was stunned for a moment, came back to his senses and shouted quickly, "Po Wen, look for Po Wen! Send the second young lady back to the backyard quickly!"

After a series of orders, she almost couldn't breathe. She said to the third lady Ming apologetically: "Third madam, I will go to the backyard to take a look first. You just sit down."

“I understand! Mr. Hou, just go over.”

Jiang Ning almost ran to catch up to Xu Nuoyan's yard.

When Po Wen came over, Xu Nuoyan was screaming in pain. Fortunately, this was her second birth and she had experience, so she wasn’t as panicked as her first child.

With the help of Po Wen, Xu Nuoyan had given birth to a son safely before the boy who went to see the birth certificate came back.

Po Wen was overjoyed and came out with the child in her arms, "Congratulations to the Marquis, congratulations to the Marquis, the second young lady has given birth to a son, mother and son are safe!"

“Let’s take a look at the flower branches!” Jiang Ning stepped forward happily and carefully took the newborn baby. He liked it no matter how he looked at it.

Xu Nuoyan in the room immediately relaxed when he heard that he had given birth to a son.

Jade bracelet was even happier than she was, "Second Young Madam, she is a young master, she is a young master!"

Just as Xu Nuoyan was about to speak, Zhu San's voice came from outside, "Madam, Madam, the second young master and the third young master all got hit, got hit!"

Jade bracelet was so excited that her hands were shaking, "Second Young Madam, did you hear this? The Second Young Master and the Third Young Master have all passed the exam! We have two successful candidates in our family!"

Xu Nuoyan nodded solemnly and said with a smile: "Go and bring the child in. My mother must be busy."

With two sons passing the imperial examination, within half a day, the threshold of their Dongli Villa will definitely be breached.

Jiang Ning also knew about this situation, so he quickly gave the child to the jade bracelet and asked Butler Zhu to go down and prepare.

Yang Erdan immediately went to the Liang family with a thank-you gift. This time Liang Shaoqian also passed the exam, and the Liang family must have been very lively.

Yang Santie first solemnly thanked Mrs. Mingsan at home, and then took the things to Quzhou Academy. After that, they had to go to the government office to meet the prefect Ji Wuya. They probably had to run out all day.

In Quzhou Academy.

Zhong Bohan's courtyard was crowded with famous local literati in Quzhou, including a number of Ming Dynasty gentlemen. Everyone was asking about the students who were on the list this autumn.

Mr. Ming was a little surprised when he learned that Yang was on the list of three irons. Zhong Bohan mused: "I remember that the two brothers were more knowledgeable in Sizhuang back then. I didn't expect that Sizhuang failed to make the list last autumn, and three irons this year. Qiu Wei is on the list."

Zhong Bohan's face was radiant and he smiled happily, "Mr. Ming! What you are talking about is from the old calendar a few years ago. The knowledge of Sizhuang is solid, but the three irons are not bad. At least he is a master in the field of Shushu business. Talent, he went out to do business last year, didn’t you know?”

"I really don't know about this!" Mr. Ming's eyes widened a bit. "His cousin is also at Mapo Academy. He only said that Santie went out to do business, but he never mentioned that he left customs. If this trip goes well. You should be able to earn a lot of money.”
