Chapter 640: Chapter 641: The Good News Has Arrived
Ye Zi’an naturally noticed her too. Seeing her wearing the clothes he had brought back, he thought to himself that Xiaxia looked really pretty in them. If they were in goose-yellow, she would look even more stunning. Xiaxia really suited vibrant colours more.
When she saw him looking over, Yang Chuxia winked at him, making Ye Zi’an chuckle.
"Candy, candy!"
"Candy, wedding candy!"
Although Chen Sheng had carried Yang Ruoqiu out of the house, there were still a bunch of children outside. Kids are, after all, the most boisterous. They didn’t care whether you have already passed a few wedding rituals or not, all they cared about was the candy.
The ones stopping them in front were that little imp Luo Linhao, and Yang Xiayun, Yang Dongzhi, Luo Linyu, as well as a group of village children.
Upon hearing their shouts, Ye Zi’an took several handfuls of candies and red peanuts mixed together from the basket and scattered them to one side, which instantly sent all the children scrambling for them.
Chen Sheng took this opportunity to carry Yang Ruoqiu out of the house, and Yang Chuxia and others followed behind them.
Once they were out of the house, they could still hear Luo Linhao shouting from behind, "Cousin, you’re too cunning!"
Outside the door, waiting for the bride was a small sedan, which must have been rented from the town. Yang Chuxia thought that this Chen Sheng was being pretty good to Yang Ruoqiu.
All the brides in the village were transported by small donkeys, and some were even simpler, they just sprinted all the way.
After the bride got into the sedan, they circled around Yangshu village three times before being carried into the bridal room prepared by Chen Sheng.
The banquet was held back at the old house. After the newlyweds had finished their ceremony, only two people remained by Yang Ruoqiu’s side, while the rest went to the old house to wait for the feast to begin.
The two people left behind were Yang Dongzhi and Yang Chuxia.
Being with Yang Chuxia made Yang Dongzhi feel incredibly uncomfortable, hardly daring to speak. She was scared.
Actually, Yang Chuxia didn’t stay there very long before Xiu’er came calling.
"Miss, Miss, great news!"
"What’s up?" Yang Chuxia asked as soon as she came out of the bridal room.
"Miss, Young Master An has passed the examination for a cultivated talent. The people from the governor’s office came to send their congratulations. They are visiting our home right now."
Upon hearing this, Yang Chuxia’s smile widened, "Really?"
"It’s true, they are having tea at our house right now." Xiu’er replied.
With that, Yang Chuxia went inside to tell Yang Ruoqiu, preparing to go home and see for herself.
But considering that when she left, these two sisters would be alone. Afraid that the two might start fighting when she left, it would not look good on such a joyous day, so she asked Xiu’er to stay behind.
But by the time she got home, the person who came to deliver the good news had just left.
Seeing her come in, Yang Dachuan happily said, "Daughter, daughter, come look, Brother An has come first in the examination!"
It turned out that there was even a certificate, similar to the modern ones, but without any framing, just a piece of paper.
Written on it was the ranking of the examinee who passed the test for cultivated talent.
"Brother An is amazing!" Yang Chuxia, looking at the paper, was besides herself with joy.
Ms. Wang also nodded, "Isn’t it? He came first."
Yang Chuxia was speechless, this really was impressive, comparable to a state scholar.
Yang Dachuan then said, "I need to inform the chef upfront. He mustn’t leave tomorrow. My son-in-law has done such a good job, we must throw another celebration."
Saying this, Yang Dachuan went out. The town’s chef, upon hearing this, could not be more pleased.
The following day, the Yang family, along with the Yangshu Village, were buzzing again. Even Yang Qingrui and his brothers were called back to join in the festivities. Yang Dachuan’s intention was to have them learn from their brother-in-law.
