84 House Exam(2/2)
Even if Gu Yan has a smelly face all day long, she can still feel Gu Yan’s need for her.
She stayed in the villa and asked Gu Yan to go to the capital. Gu Yan would not do it, but Jinyu could leave very easily. She seemed to yearn for the prosperity of the capital and the lively bustle of the Hou Mansion.
This is not to say that Jinyu doesn’t love her mother, but that Jinyu’s world is not the only one.
Without her, Jin Yu can live a good life.
She thought, this might be a good thing.
After all, if Gu Yan is gone one day, she doesn't want to live anymore.
At least she doesn't have to worry about Jin Yu.
On the way back, Gu Jiao asked the second head of the house about the Hou Mansion.
"What aspect do you mean?" asked the second boss.
"Madam Hou." Gu Jiao said.
It is not surprising to ask Mrs. Hou. After all, the masters of the Hot Spring Villa had already met three, and only the lady was left without a mask.
The second boss didn't realize that Gu Jiao had any purpose. He thought for a while and said, "The Marquis's surname is Yao, and there are some stories to tell. She is the second wife of Ding'an Hou. Her family is in a dilemma. Her father had a free job in the Ministry of Revenue. It is said that he offended someone and was not even able to do it in the end. She had a handkerchief with the former Marquis. Before her ex-Marquis passed away, she visited her several times. There were rumors in the capital that she had hooked up with Ding'an Hou while her ex-Marquis was seriously ill."
Gu Jiao's eyebrows were slightly frowned. She didn't look like this.
The second boss continued: "The truth is that she has never seen him even in the Marquis' Mansion and Marquis Ding'an."
"How do you know?" Gu Jiao asked.
The second boss smiled faintly: "We Huichuntang still has some reputation in the capital. The imperial doctor who treated the former wife of the Marquis had some contact with my family, but the former wife of the Marquis did ask Yao to take care of his children."
Gu Jiao asked, "The former Madam Hou has children?"
The second Dong family said: "Yes, there are three sons, and the two behind are twins. The former Marquis's wife had the idea of asking Yao to give An Hou to re-string, but unfortunately Yao himself disagreed. Yao's personal rejection, and the imperial doctor heard all the medicine boiled in the back.
"But after a while, Ding'an Hou finally met Yao's family and fell in love with her at first sight. Ding'an Hou directly proposed marriage to the Yao family, and the Yao family agreed without saying a word. You should be able to think of the subsequent events, and the capital began to slander Yao's family.
"Mrs. Hou has been in the hot spring villa for many years, one to accompany Gu Yan to recuperate, and the other is because she is not comfortable in the capital.
"Mr. Ding'an actually has little love for his original wife. On the contrary, he loves Yao very much. With Yao's background, it was not enough to make him a successor. He insisted on marrying Yao. But the more he loved Yao, the more people felt that Yao was a fox."
In fact, the second boss once met Yao. He was a woman without scheming, with her eyes as clean as the lake water.
If she was charming, there would be no one in the world.

But it was said that ten days after the government examination was over, the government office released the list.
The candidates went to the government office early in the morning to see if they had passed the exam.
The number of people admitted to the government examination is very limited. Hundreds of candidates only admitted 50 people, divided into two grades A and B, ten first grades, and the rest belong to Class B.
Feng Lin was woken up by Du Ruohan, and Du Ruohan slipped out of the prefect's mansion before dawn: "Feng Lin Feng Lin! Get up quickly! You're losing money!"
Du Ruohan unilaterally made a bet with Feng Lin, and he bet that Xiao Liulang failed the exam and bet ten taels of silver.
Feng Lin yawned and opened the door: "...I haven't had breakfast yet."
Du Ruohan immediately stuffed a big meat bun into his mouth, pulled him downstairs.
Feng Lin took the bun: "Liulang hasn't eaten yet..."
Du Ruohan said, "Okay, okay! He has hands and feet, will he starve to death!"
Du Ruohan pulled Feng Lin to the government office without saying a word.
There were many candidates standing there, and the notice railing was blocked. Du Ruohan worked hard to pull Feng Lin to the inside.
In Du Ruohan's opinion, the chance of passing the exam like Xiao Liulang is really not high.
"Hehehe, wait and give me the money, Feng Xiaodun!"
"I'm not Feng Xiaodun! I...I didn't have any with you..." Halfway through the words, Feng Lin's eyes fell on the name that was so eye-catching that no one could ignore. He suddenly choked and pointed to the list and said, "You, look!"
Du Ruohan looked in the direction of his finger.
I saw a name in a very conspicuous location - the head of the Mansion Test Case, Xiao Liulang!
Du Ruohan's chin was shocked: "No, right? That guy actually passed the exam? Or the head of the case? How is it possible?"
Where is the promised little daigua?
The guy who can’t finish memorizing the Three Character Classic actually became the head of the house trial?
The case heads of the prefecture test are much more difficult than those of the county test, and they are not of the same magnitude at all.
What's more, the test questions this time were given by his perverted uncle, so it makes people even more incomprehensible.
Feng Lin stretched out his hand.
Du Ruohan: "What are you doing?"
Feng Lin: "I am willing to accept the loss."
No, didn’t you bet with me?
You were ruined by that kid!
Feng Lin happily took all of Du Ruohan's belongings to the inn. He gave half of the money to Xiao Liulang, and he didn't need to tell him about the results. The person who reported the good news had already arrived at the inn to congratulate him.
