Chapter 110 Comeback
"My dear warrior, may I ask how to get to Taoyuan Village in Qinghe Town?"
Two officers driving horses politely stopped the carriage.
What the officer said successfully attracted the attention of Jiang Yue and the other two.
Their Taoyuan Village hasn't done anything wrong recently, right? How come they have alarmed the county officials?
"Taoyuan Village?" What a coincidence? Seeing that they were officials, Mu Heng bowed to them and replied:
"At the fork in the road ahead, turn right and go straight. After another ten miles, you will reach Qinghe Town. If you want to go to Taoyuan Village, please ask again after you get to Qinghe Town."
"Thank you." The chief officer thanked him and was about to turn his horse around when Mu Heng habitually asked one more question.
"Sir, why are you going to Taoyuan Village?"
"We are going to announce the good news. The first place winner of our Huai'an County case is in Taoyuan Village." The official was in a hurry to get on the road and had no intention of explaining further.
"The first case? Good news?" Mu Heng grasped the key words. He looked at Jiang Yue and Zhao Tiancheng in the carriage in disbelief.
Then, disbelief.
Zhao Tiancheng was dumbfounded. Because he was too self-aware, his eyes fell directly on Jiang Yue, "Could it be..."
Jiang Yue: "Maybe..."
"Sir, we are from Taoyuan Village." Mu Heng jumped off the carriage and stood horizontally in front of the officer's horse.
"The top candidate you are talking about might be in our carriage." You know, in the entire Taoyuan Village, only Jiang Yue, Zhao Tiancheng and Jiang Yue took the provincial examination.
"Hmm?" The two officers looked inside the car through the curtains. Due to their physical condition, they looked at Jiang Yue.
"Jiang Yue, young, short, and good-looking?"
Jiang Yue was stunned. The county champion didn't give her the first place, but she didn't expect that the prefectural champion would turn the tables?
If you're not excited, it's fake.
She suppressed her joy, got off the carriage, clasped her fists and said, "It is the student."
"It's true." At this moment, Mu Heng had only simple admiration for Jiang Yue.
Zhao Tiancheng... this is too amazing. He didn’t dare to think about it, and even more so didn’t dare to look at the list.
"Jiang Yue, you made it so hard for us to find you." The first officer asked when he saw Jiang Yue:
"The list was released today, but you're not checking your rank on the list, but are just here leisurely on your way?"
He said this with a hint of complaint, but at the same time, he was also amazed.
"Sorry, my home is far away." Jiang Yue never thought that she would directly get the first place in the county case this time? She would personally wait for the officials under the list.
"Officer, do you know the other rankings?" Zhao Tiancheng asked cautiously.
"I really don't know about that." The leading officer replied casually. Because he was anxious to report the good news, he said no more and asked Jiang Yue to follow him and return together.
"Hurry up, it's better to announce the good news sooner rather than later."
After hearing this, Zhao Tiancheng waved his hand towards Jiang Yue.
"Go."
"That's the only way." Mu Heng was really happy for Jiang Yue. He couldn't care less about Zhao Tiancheng, whom he disliked.
He just said, "Wait, I'll send Xiaoliu back first."
Then, he carried Jiang Yue directly into the carriage.
Poor Zhao Tiancheng had no choice but to wait where he was. Only he knew how anxious he was at the moment.
Mu Heng rode the horse and led the way, while Jiang Yue sat beside him.
The two messengers behind him followed on horseback...
…When officials came to the village, some villagers passing by the village entrance were surprised and they all ran to watch the fun.
When they saw the red silk on the official, they were a little overwhelmed for a moment.
Why is it arranged like this?
The carriage that Mu Heng and Jiang Yue were in also walked in the front and led the way, which caused a lot of discussion among the villagers passing by.
Thinking of Jiang Yue's recent examination for the status of a student, they suddenly realized.
With the intention of watching the fun, everyone followed behind.
Soon, the village chief Zhao Zhu heard the news and rushed over. He walked towards the chief officer and bowed, saying:
"Sir, is this Xiaoliu, no, Jiang Yue, a high school student?"
"Exactly!"
The chief officer made a statement, and the whole village was envious. They secretly wanted to send their own sons to school. But when they thought about the annual tuition fee, as well as the need for writing brushes, ink, paper and inkstone, they could only envy him.
After hearing this, the village chief laughed.
"The Jiang family's kid has made great progress!"
Not to mention Jiang Yue, even Mu Heng at the front of the car looked high-spirited.
Liu looked around, but only saw Jiang Yue, not her own son. Her heart began to beat wildly.
Zhang watched from afar, wondering why her son just wouldn't understand.
When the village chief led the two messengers to the Jiang family, the neighbor Li hurried out of the yard.
Seeing this scene, I hope that my own Xiaocang will be able to succeed one day.
At this moment, Liu Chunfeng and Yang were kneading dough together in the kitchen.
Jiang Sini and Jiang Wuni also had their hands full of noodles as they were stretching them in the yard.
When the two little girls saw the person coming, they stared at him in surprise.
At another glance, they saw Jiang Yue and Mu Heng, and the village chief also came?
"Mr. Officer? Grandma, there are guests at home!" With just one sentence, Jiang Sini successfully got Liu Chunfeng and Yang Cui to leave the house.
"Xiao Liu, Brother Mu, why are you back again?" Jiang Wuni was really surprised.
Without waiting for Jiang Yue to explain, Zhao Zhu said:
"Sister Liu, congratulations! Your grandson has made great progress. This is a great honor for our village chief!"
People who came to watch the fun had already swarmed in.
Liu Chunfeng probably understood what was going on. Seeing the official entering the courtyard, she did not dare to delay for a moment. She quickly calmed her hands and stepped forward to greet him.
As soon as he bent down, the leading officer supported him with both hands.
"Your family..." He wanted to ask, where is the man in your family?
But thinking that grandma was old enough, he said directly:
"Madam, we are here under the order of the county governor to report the good news to the first family of the county case. Congratulations, madam."
"What?" Yang Cui was stunned and didn't know what to say. "What do you mean by first place in the case?"
The little grandson of the Jiang family really opened her eyes today.
"Jiang Yue got the first place in our Huai'an in this provincial examination!" After the leading official explained, he handed over the good news book with both hands.
After Liu Chunfeng took it, she finally came back to her senses as if in a dream, and her eyes became moist.
She had no time to sigh, and hurriedly ordered Jiang Sini and Jiang Wuni, who were still in a daze, to serve tea and water to the official.
Seeing this scene, Mu Heng curled the corners of his lips and headed back towards Huai'an.
"Sir, please stay at home for dinner today." Jiang Yue, the person involved, just interrupted.
"Grandpa Village Chief, please stay and have dinner with us."
The two officers were not polite. It was a rare occasion for the village chief to encounter such a happy event, so there was no reason for him to refuse.
Look, stools have been brought for the two officers, and they are sitting together talking.
After all, they are officials' family members. As the village chief, Zhao Zhu deals with them quite a lot and knows some etiquette.
Immediately, Liu Chunfeng, together with Yang Cui, Jiang Sini and Jiang Wuni, bustled around in the kitchen.
Jiang Yue accompanied the official and talked with the village chief.
At the same time, the news that Jiang Yue won the first place in the county case spread throughout Taoyuan Village. Everyone was talking about it, and smoke was coming out of the Jiang family's ancestral tomb.
They were also talking about the two daughters-in-law of the Jiang family.
Zhang: "What do you think? When Yuan and Chen find out that the Jiang family is no longer what it used to be, will they shamelessly come back to live here?"
Mrs. Li clicked her tongue. "What kind of person is Sister Liu? She looks soft on the outside but is actually tough on the inside! She won't want me even if I come back."
"Too……"
"..."
