They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 94 Who said our Mingxuan didn't win?

The more Xu Zhichun looked, the more her heart sank. Liang Mingxiang was clearly above, but Mingxuan was not there, really not there.

Xu Zhichun told herself: It's okay, the child has tried very hard, I should comfort him, at worst he can take the test again.
Just then, a voice from the side drifted into my ears, "Wu Tong, Yang Zishan, and Liang Mingxuan have won first place! They're really amazing!"

Xu Zhichun's mind, which had been filled with all sorts of random thoughts, vanished instantly, leaving his mind blank for a moment: What?
She didn't mishear, did she?

Xu Zhichun suddenly turned to look at the man: "Brother, who did you say won first place? Liang, Liang Mingxuan, is that the name? Where is he?"

The man was startled by her intense and eager gaze. He uttered a sound of surprise and instinctively pointed to another large red paper next to him. "It's...it's Liang Mingxuan, right here?"

Xu Zhichun quickly looked over!

The three large characters “Liang Mingxuan” are clearly visible.

Not first place, but third.

But it's obvious that he must be the youngest one.

Achieving this score is extremely rare and would shock many people!

"No wonder! No wonder!"

No wonder Liang Mingxuan's name wasn't on that list; it turns out the top three were on another list.

The names of the top three are much bigger than those on the other list, and they look very impressive and majestic!
Great, great, that's wonderful!
Xu Zhichun felt like she was smiling like a flower at this moment, and said to the person with great radiance, "Liang Mingxuan is my brother-in-law, and my brother-in-law also passed the exam!"

"Wow, congratulations!"

"awesome."

"Really? I'm so envious."

Xu Zhichun smiled broadly: "Thank you all, and I wish you all the best!"

"Haha, thank you so much!"

"Thank you for your kind words!"

Xu Zhichun walked out with a beaming smile and light steps.

Afraid they would worry, Xu Zhichun greeted them with a big smile and waved from afar, even before she arrived.

Upon seeing Zhang Shi and Liang Dabo, Xu Zhichun's strange competitive spirit suddenly surged and instantly reached its peak, making him extremely happy!
Because she's sure to win.

Serves you right! Who told you to be so cocky just now? Who told you to do that on purpose?

Zhang muttered to herself, "Ha, she can still laugh? She must have lost her mind."

Uncle Liang frowned, quite puzzled: Mingxiang said there was no Mingxuan's name, and he even made him look at it again, so he certainly wouldn't be mistaken.

So, has Mrs. Xu really lost her mind?
Zeng Xiaoyan and her husband were delighted.

"Mingxuan, Mingxuan, you definitely won, haha!"

"Yes, yes, I knew it! How could a child prodigy not pass?"

Congratulations, Mingxuan!

"congratulations!"

When Liang Mingxuan saw his sister-in-law's smile, he was completely relieved.

He was overjoyed; he had passed the exam!
He finally lived up to his sister-in-law's expectations.

He's now a student of the Imperial Examination, so from now on, when people talk about his sister-in-law, they'll say she's the sister-in-law of a student of the Imperial Examination. This status will at least offer her some protection.

He will continue to work hard so that his sister-in-law will become known as "the sister-in-law of a scholar", "the sister-in-law of a successful candidate in the imperial examinations", and "the sister-in-law of a high-ranking official".

He also wants to help his sister-in-law obtain an imperial title!
Zhang couldn't stand Xu Zhichun's attitude. Before Xu Zhichun could even speak, Zhang couldn't wait to laugh: "How is it? Mingxuan didn't pass the exam, right? That's right. There's no need to look so sad if you didn't pass. We're all from the Liang family. If Mingxiang had passed, you would all be proud too, haha. You should be happy! It's okay, it's okay, we'll talk about it later, haha."

Zeng Xiaoyan and Liang Mingliang both looked at Xu Zhichun.

What should I do if my heart, which had just been at ease, is now on edge again? What should I do if I'm nervous again?
"Who said my Mingxuan didn't pass?" Xu Zhichun said proudly, "My Mingxuan passed the exam! Hehe!"

"Wow, that's great!"

"Hehe, I knew it!"

Liang Mingxuan smiled, his dark eyes looking at his sister-in-law. "Thank you, sister-in-law. You've worked so hard." Without his sister-in-law, he probably wouldn't even have enough to eat, let alone take the exam.

Zeng Xiaoyan and Lian Mingliang praised him, saying: "He truly deserves to be called a child prodigy. He is smart, sensible, and filial."

To be honest, Liang Mingxiang hadn't even passed the exam yet, but he already acted all high and mighty and looked down on people. He had kindly driven them to the city, but when he saw the results, he didn't even bother to say hello.

"Impossible!" Uncle Liang sneered. "Ms. Xu, can you even read? Mingxiang looked at it several times, and Mingxuan's name isn't on it."

Zhang: "Exactly! Don't make a fool of yourself by misreading it, that would be too embarrassing."

"Humph."

"Uncle, Aunt, don't worry," Xu Zhichun said, her voice rising with pride as they spoke. She casually dropped a bombshell: "It's true that Mingxuan's name isn't on the same list as Mingxiang's. Mingxuan came in third place, and his name was posted on a separate list with the first and second place winners, so it's normal that Mingxiang didn't see his name."

"."

A moment of silence.

"Wow!"

"This little prodigy truly lives up to his reputation as a little prodigy, haha!"

"Third! Third!"

"Father would be overjoyed if he knew!"

Liang Mingxuan was stunned, his eyes widening in disbelief.

Xu Zhichun patted his shoulder lightly with a cheerful smile: "Let's go buy some meat, and while we're at it, let's buy a fat duck. We'll have a delicious meal tonight."

Liang Mingxuan felt a warmth in his heart, smiled, and nodded vigorously: "Yes!"

Zhang screamed in disbelief, "Impossible!"

The people around her were startled and all turned to look at her.

Many people looked on with sympathy, shaking their heads and sighing softly.

"It must be because their child didn't pass the exam. Parents always worry about their children."

"Who can argue with that? Sigh."

Upon hearing this, Uncle Liang's face turned ashen as he glared at them fiercely, "My son passed! He passed the exam!"

Everyone shook their heads and sighed, but did not stop. Those who were going to leave continued to leave, unwilling to provoke him, and no one would argue with him.

I understand, he's gone mad.

There are quite a few people like this every time the children's examination or the county examination are held.

Poor thing, so pitiful.

Uncle Liang felt like he'd punched cotton; he was frustrated.

Zhang didn't have time to think about those things; her attention was entirely on Xu Zhichun's words. She stared straight at Xu Zhichun with her eyes: "You must have seen wrong. How old is Mingxuan? How could he possibly be third in the exam? You can't brag like that."

Xu Zhichun: "I wasn't bragging. If Aunt doesn't believe me, why don't you let Mingxiang go and take a look again?"

"Hmph, just wait!"

Zhang ran away in a fit of rage.

By now, those who wanted to see the rankings had already done so, and most of the crowd had dispersed.

Zhang found Liang Mingxiang not long after.

Two students from Liang Mingxiang's school passed the exam this year; one was him, and the other was already twenty-five years old.

At this moment, Liang Mingxiang was enjoying the praise from his teacher and the envious congratulations from his classmates, surrounded by admirers. His heart swelled rapidly, and he felt elated.

He knows it!

Zhang rushed over at that moment, shouting, "Mingxiang, Mingxiang! Go and check the official list again. Xu said that Mingxuan came in third place. Go and see if it's true."
