009 Alas, this face is a bit too embarrassing
The ox cart squeaked forward.
Soon, I arrived at the Dong family.
The Dong family house is built next to the road at the entrance of the village, and is the leading wealthy family in Jinzhu Township.
The yard door is tall and spacious, with two big stone lions squatting on the left and right sides of the door.
To show festiveness, a lion's neck was wrapped around red silk today.
It flutters with the wind, which looks very beautiful.
On the plaque hanging high above the courtyard gate, the word "Dong Zhai" with a black background is written with red silk.
The door of the fir courtyard with red paint was wide open. The Dong family's chief worker A Shui and several relatives of the Dong family were smiling and welcoming the villagers who came to congratulate him.
There were also many villagers watching the fun on both sides of the courtyard gate. They smiled and said that Dong Chengwen, the eldest son of the Dong family, is a good literary talent. He is now the top scholar and will definitely be a top scholar in the future.
Mr. Dong laughed out loud.
The relatives of the Dong family also looked bright and happy.
There was a stage set up in the open space opposite Dong's house, and two or three actors who were dressed up were trying to walk on the stage.
One or twenty kids, singing and dancing around the stage, hehehehe.
Anyway, it's very lively.
Lin Xiuyue came all the way in a ox cart and found that the Dong family's house was the most grand.
She was even more happy when she fantasized about the good days she would live in the future.
Lin Erzhu parked the ox cart on the side of the stage, and greeted his wife and daughter with two bottles of good wine. The family of three walked towards the gate of Dong's house.
"In-laws, congratulations, congratulations." Lin Erzhu shouted loudly and rang from afar, for fear that others would not know, and their family and the Dong family would become in-laws.
Mr. Dong was also very optimistic about Lin Erzhu's in-laws. He immediately clasped his fists and smiled, "Oh, it's time for the person to come. What else can I bring? Sitting in the house, sitting in the house, A Shui, please ask Mr. Lin's family to sit in the house."
A Shui took the wine from Lin Erzhu and thought to himself, it would be better to change the kiss. Where can the Lin family have the money to buy wine?
Other relatives of the Dong family also greeted Lin Erzhu with politeness.
Lin Xiuyue walked to Mr. Dong and shouted sweetly, "Hello Uncle Dong."
Mr. Dong nodded happily, "Okay, Chengwen is here to entertain guests at home. Go in quickly, you guys talk."
Lin Xiuyue was so embarrassed that she hurriedly covered her face with an umbrella and trotted into the house.
It made everyone laugh together.
At this moment, a gong sounded from the road ahead.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang bang-
I saw two yamen runners riding horses coming here, one beats the gong, the other holding a scroll in his hand, chanting the name loudly.
This is the yamen in the county government office, and the list of scholars was announced.
Walk along the village and recite the road.
"Ah, the one who sang the wedding list is here, go and watch it, the scholars' wedding list!"
"Ao, ao, look at the happy list, look at the happy list--"
The children stopped watching the stage and rushed to the yamen riding horses happily.
Mr. Dong was talking to Lin Erzhu and his wife, and immediately smiled, "The in-laws are here just right, let's go and have a look together?"
"Go and have a look, go."
The guy walked over with a smile.
The other villagers who watched the fun also surrounded him, talking and laughing to flatter Mr. Dong.
As soon as Lin Xiuyue walked into the door of the Dong family, she saw Dong Chengwen wearing a long blue cloth gown and a Confucian scholar hat on her head. She walked out of the main house with several tables of banquets.
Although Dong Chengwen is a young man in the countryside, he is as handsome as a jade-like face, with a graceful figure, and every move, he has a bit of noble character like a young man in the city, and has a completely different spirit from the farmers and men in the village.
Every time Lin Xiuyue saw him, her heart kept beating.
It's great. Now, he is her fiancé, he has won a scholar, and she is the scholar's wife.
Lin Xiuyue walked up and said sweetly, "Brother Chengwen, I just heard the sound of gongs outside. Some people said that the yamen who read the wedding list has come. Let's go and see together."
Dong Chengwen has long been very good at Lin Xiuyue, who has changed her marriage and has won the scholar, which makes him even more happy.
"Sister Xiuyue, you are so beautiful today."
Lin Xiuyue's face turned red and she turned her head, "Where is it?"
"Really, I won't lie to you." Dong Chengwen smiled.
"You... ignore you." Lin Xiuyue's face turned redder and she turned around and walked out.
Dong Chengwen smiled and walked towards the yard gate.
The two of them arrived at the gate of the yard, one in front and one behind.
There were many people outside the door, chatting and laughing.
A sudden ox cart, carrying a few buckets of manure, came from the road ahead and was about to pass by the door of the Dong family.
When the wind blew, the strange smell rushed into Dong Chengwen's nose, making his face darker, "Lu Ziyi? I'm having a wedding ceremony at home, you actually drove the feces and water truck here? Did you do it?"
"Is this road yours owned?" Lu Ziyi glanced lightly.
Dong Chengwen choked: "..."
Lin Xiuyue rolled her eyes at Lu Ziyi and pulled Dong Chengwen's sleeves, "Brother Chengwen, don't pay attention to this farmer, you've approached him, and you won't be covered in smell. Let's go and see the list."
After Lin Xiuyue finished speaking, she raised her chin proudly.
Dong Chengwen flicked his sleeves, snorted lightly, and walked to look at the list.
Instead of continuing to drive the car, Lu Ziyi parked the ox cart on the side of Dong's door, stood beside the cart, grabbed a straw hat and slapped the cool breeze to rest.
As for his eyes, Wubo Wulan looked at the two yamen servants in the crowd.
"There is no Chinese scholar named Dong, don't ask. We have been memorizing all the way, and we are almost memorizing it." A yamen said impatiently.
"Impossible. My parent worker clearly said that my son was a scholar, how could he not be on the list? Could it be the first place, and he didn't write a name but only the seat number?" Mr. Dong heard the yamen say that his son's name was not on the list at all, and his face turned pale because of his fright.
If his son fails to become a scholar, wouldn’t he be embarrassed?
All the stages were set up and all the guests were invited!
Another yamen officer was even more impatient, "That seat number is No. 68, and Tong Congwen from Dongjia Village was not his surname was Dong."
boom--
The onlookers were excited, "Oh, why aren't it the Dong family's Dalang?"
"No wonder the old man Tong's family in this village also had a banquet, saying that his son was a scholar. It turns out that the first place was his family."
People looked at the Dong family's father and son with strange eyes.
Lin Erzhu's family was also very scared.
"I don't believe it!" Dong Chengwen, who had just walked up to him, was so shocked that his fingers trembled when he heard the words of the Yamamaster. "I want to see it myself."
"If you don't believe it, you can ask... Ah, Master Diao is here, Master Diao, someone here says he doesn't believe that he has failed the exam." A yamen officer shouted.
The person who came in a mule cart was Mr. Diao from the county and Old Man Liu from Lujia Village where Linyuan that night.
When Old Man Liu saw the Dong family ramming around, he slapped his thigh and said hurriedly, "Didn't I send the letter to Lin Dazhu's eldest daughter last evening? I asked her to deliver it to the Dong family that night, why did I still..."
Dong Chengwen and Lin Xiuyue all turned pale, Lin Yuan?
Chapter completed!
