Chapter 793 Good news has arrived

 For ordinary people, both families have children studying, and everyone has fame and fame, so there is no need to compete secretly.

I didn’t expect that the Song Wang family could be so wealthy. With her in the Song family, she will definitely be in good hands in the future.

Sure enough, just as Wenyou said, one morning seven days later, the good news sent to the county government from Kyoto was delivered to Liushuwan.

 For a time, the whole village exploded, and everyone in the village couldn't help but come to watch the excitement. They knew that Xiao Wu was good at reading, but they didn't expect that Xiao Wu really won the top prize.

“Thank you for your kindness, Mrs. Bai. However, if our brother can stay for a long time, we have to go back to resume his life. When the number one scholar returns to his hometown in glory, we brother will come back to ask for a glass of wine.”

 When the officials left, everyone looked at the Bai family with envy and fear in their eyes. They gave compliments free of charge.

Bai Yunxi curled up the corners of his mouth, but did not object and waved directly.

In addition to the villagers watching the fun, there were also people from the Bai clan, big and small, old and young, all came.

Even if it was just a pretense, she didn't have the energy to do it, so she simply stopped it in advance to prevent them from having unlimited imagination.

As soon as these words came out, everyone looked at him subconsciously. Even Bai Yunxi followed everyone's gaze and found out that he was an uncle from a branch of the clan. He didn't have much specific impression.

 This is also the reason why she does not object. Of course, if you are promoting someone, you must have good academic talent and be able to pass the exam.

"Haha... I have long said that Xiaowu's child is not an ordinary person. He has inherited Yun Hui's talent for reading. It is indeed true. They say that a tiger father has no son. Yunxi girl, you will be the mother of the number one scholar in the future."

As soon as Baiyun Xi said this, everyone fell silent. Living frugally is a habit deep in their bones. They just thought about running water mats and made noise. I don't dare to make the decision as to what exactly it will be.

“There is a champion in our clan. In addition to worshiping our ancestors, do we also have to set up a running water mat for everyone to have fun together?”

The old patriarch laughed and clicked his pipe. When he heard the news, he thought he was hallucinating. How could Xiaowu win the first prize at such a young age?

Until he saw the official standing in the yard with the good news, he was so shocked that he almost couldn't hold the pipe and pot.

Baiyunxi was noncommittal about this. Appropriate assistance to the clan members was nothing more than donating a few more clan fields so that more clan members could have the opportunity to study. But Xiaowu will be an official outside the country in the future, no matter how many clan members there are, if he can't pass the exam, it will all be in vain.

"Although our mountain villages are far away, if it is too extravagant and wasteful, people will not say it is frivolous. Moreover, Xiaowu's mentor is from the Hanlin Academy in Kyoto. He is a great scholar. How can Xiaowu surpass his teacher and stand out? ?”

"This is true. Xiao Wu's shining light on the lintel is the glory of the entire Bai family."

 The yamen servant took the heavy bag and looked at each other.

"Being able to deliver good news to the No. 1 Scholar is a good thing that our brothers can only dream of. Even under the scorching sun, we are willing to be happy and seek good luck."

The tribesmen looked at each other and didn't insist. They got up and left one after another. As for the people watching the excitement outside the yard, Baiyun Xi ignored them and went straight back to the house and lay on the Arhat bed. There were so many people and it was so noisy that it made his head hurt.

 Everyone: “…”

The man came into contact with everyone's gaze, his expression was stunned, and he spoke loudly,

“I also saw that the landlord in the town held a running banquet for three days on his 60th birthday, and even invited a theater troupe. Winning the first prize is such a big deal, isn’t it more appropriate?”

"Mom, do you have a headache?" Bai Anjing came over with a glass of water and said worriedly.

 Two hundred five. Two hundred and thirty four. One hundred and forty six. Seventy-one

When someone interrupted me, the atmosphere suddenly became a little solid and a little awkward. Bai Yuntang looked at his cousin's calm eyes and naturally knew what she was thinking, and he didn't force it.

The old clan leader and several clan elders sitting in the courtyard looked at each other and had no objection. The situation was stronger than others, and they were no longer qualified to ask for anything except suggestions.

 “It’s a big thank you for the two of you, and I’d like to treat you to some tea.”

If you are lucky, pulling one or two tribesmen to come forward will also help yourself. As the saying goes, brothers fight, and father and son fight together. When going out to be an official, being from the same clan is no different from being a blood brother.

"As for how to celebrate, we have to wait until Xiao Wu comes back to decide. It's too early to say anything now. But I'm sure Xiao Wu won't agree with having a big banquet. Scholars advocate frugality and oppose extravagance and waste. I heard that the trend of frugality originated from the imperial palace. When the news came out, the officials took the lead in frugality, and both officials and localities rushed to follow suit."

Seeing them insisting on leaving, Baiyunxi couldn't hold on and asked his second son to personally deliver them to the official road.

“Third uncle, cousin, don’t worry. When Xiao Wu comes back, he will definitely let him go to worship his ancestors in person, and he will definitely protect his clan members in the future.”

“My cousin is right. We will wait until our champion returns to his hometown in glory. Let’s all disperse now and wait for the return of the champion together.”

 She would not object to donating a few acres of school land to the clan. But if she was asked to lead a whole village of people to eat and drink, she wouldn't have that much patience.

Looking at the crowd of spectators gathered at the door, Bai Yunxi asked Xiao Si to carry a tray full of peanut candies and prepared copper coins. He said auspicious words and scattered lucky coins to let everyone have fun. .

These words are indeed not polite, but good things will happen. The yamen servants are all rushing to get errands. As for those unlucky ones, naturally no one wants to get involved.

Now I don’t even dare to speak carelessly.

“We, the Bai family, have lived in Willow Bay for generations, and this is definitely a geomantic treasure.”

“Then please take a break, and let me join the friendship of the landlords. I will have a simple meal, and please don’t despise me.”

After Baiyunxi exchanged pleasantries with the yamen servants, he prepared a large purse for the person.

Bai Laosan said, stroking his beard and raising his head and laughing. He never thought that he would encounter such a beautiful thing in his lifetime. He has no regrets in this life.

Bai Yunxi nodded in agreement, but did not object. She already fully understood the importance of a person to the tribe. When traveling abroad, the ancestral home is the root. Whether the clan members can climb up depends on whether Xiao Wu, the leader, can help.

After being excited, Baiyuntang laughed and said,

“Cousin, now you can finally feel proud. Being the number one scholar in the fifth middle school is not only the glory of your family, but also the glory of the entire Bai family. I am afraid that our Bai family will have to reach a higher level in the future.”

 “It’s okay, just take a rest and you’ll be fine.”

Bai Yunxi pinched the center of his eyebrows, took the cup and took a sip, "I'm used to being quiet, and suddenly there was a commotion, and my forehead was buzzing."
