As soon as Lin Changqing finished speaking, everyone could hear the sound of blowing and beating.

Lin Yiwei immediately reacted and shouted at Lin Mingliang,” Liang ‘Er, quick, get the firecrackers. We’ll rush to the village entrance now!

According to the rules, when the High Scholar returned home from his first High Scholar Entrance Examination, the village had to set off firecrackers to welcome him.

Lin Mingliang picked up a big firecracker and headed to the door.

When he reached the village entrance, he saw Lin Changfeng, who was already waiting there with firecrackers.

When Lin Mingliang saw this, he touched the back of his head and asked with a smile, “Village chief, so you’ve already prepared firecrackers!”

Lin Changfeng glared at him and said,” Lin Mingqing passed the imperial examinations and became the High Scholar. It’s a great honour for the village and brings glory to our Lin Family Village. Of course, the village has to prepare firecrackers to celebrate!”

After Lin Yiwei stepped down from his position as the village chief, most of the villagers did not know what to do for a while, later, someone thought of Lin Changfeng.

Lin Changfeng was a decent person and had a good relationship with the villagers. Most importantly, he had a good relationship with Taoyuan Village.

Therefore, everyone elected Lin Changfeng as the chief.

Then, he said to the county magistrate,” Greetings, county magistrate!”

After Lin Changfeng finished speaking, some people behind him followed up and said,” Congratulations to the High Scholar. Greetings, Lord Magistrate!”

Lin Mingqing smiled and said,” Thank you, fellow villagers!’

The county magistrate also waved his hand and said,” Everyone, please rise!”

After Lin Changfeng got up, he made a gesture of ‘please’ and said,”

Magistrate, High Scholar, please!”

The group followed Lin Changfeng and Lin Mingliang into the Lin Family Village.

They first went to the Lin Family Village’s ancestral hall to pay their respects to their ancestors. Lin Yiwei and some elders were already waiting there.

After that, they returned to Lin Yiwei’s house.

When the county magistrate arrived at the Lin family’s courtyard and saw the things on the table, he was very surprised and immediately understood.

He looked around again but did not see the person he wanted to see.. Then, he looked at Lin Yiwei and secretly asked,” High Scholar Old Master, will the Princess come?”
