Chapter 413 Unlucky Xu Wenyuan
Chapter 413 Unlucky Xu Wenyuan
Miaomiao and Tiantian were eating candy figures in the house. Before they had finished eating, they heard the family carriage leave.
"Who's out?"
"Your brother and the others have gone back to the academy."
"Why are you here so early this time? Didn't my brother and the others come back in the afternoon? They haven't even had lunch yet."
Su He looked at the two young and beautiful girls and smiled gently.
"We don't care about the three of them, they are just nerds. Remember to rinse your mouth after eating the candy man. Tiantian, keep an eye on Miaomiao."
Miaomiao's attention was immediately diverted. "I'm old enough now, I will definitely rinse my mouth. Sister, please don't say such things in the future."
Tiantian smiled at the side, but Su He ignored her. This guy was just not honest.
"If you are as self-conscious as Tiantian, sister won't say anything anymore."
"If you can't do it, you will get 500 coins per month as pocket money from now on."
Miaomiao's eyes widened and her words broke.
"500! Sister, you are so cruel."
"If you think it's too little, just rinse your mouth. If you don't take good care of your teeth, they will become rotten and you won't be able to eat candy. Even porridge will feel hard to you."
Seeing her sister so serious, Miaomiao agreed dejectedly.
"I'll go brush my teeth after I finish eating."
"Rinse your mouth first, brush your teeth after lunch, and then take a nap."
"Oh."
Su He returned to her room satisfied, as she still had to prepare for class.
The three wooden guys here are having an argument.
"Mu Tou, are you crazy? I haven't eaten the fried chicken I ordered for lunch yet."
"That's right. I'm ready to eat spicy chicken feet again before I leave."
Mu Tou looked at the two men sideways and felt that there were four words written on their faces.
Toad! (Exclamation mark counts as one)
"What are you still eating? There are only 480 days left before the imperial examination. How dare you still eat? Go back to school quickly, you two defeated generals."
Qu Qing and the other man felt extremely heavy-hearted when they heard this number.
"I asked you to stop giving me numbers. I feel scared when I hear the numbers are getting smaller and smaller."
"That's right, I can only eat half a fried chicken."
Xu Wenyuan was very dissatisfied. He touched his stomach. He was supposed to have a fried chicken with him when he left. But now there was none.
"Haven't you heard?"
Qu Qing and the other person looked at each other. They didn't want to pay any attention to Mu Tou, but they also wanted to know what they hadn't heard.
"You can say it or not, we are preparing to recite Confucius's article on Protestantism in our hearts."
Mu Tou really stopped talking and began to recite the article with his eyes closed.
Now Qu Qing and the other person looked at each other, and finally they couldn't hold back.
"Hurry up and tell me, you stinky wood."
Mu Tou ignored him and finished reciting the article he was memorizing before slowly opening his eyes.
"In addition to the final exams in June, there will be a selection exam. The top 20 students from your academy can study at Yunkai Academy. Join us in preparing for the provincial exam."
Qu Qing and Xu Wenyuan were both shocked, "How come we haven't heard about it?"
"The headmaster told me that. The decision was made just two days ago. If you pass the exam, I can put the three of us in the same class."
Xu Wenyuan yelled, "Why didn't you tell me earlier? I shouldn't have come back yesterday. No, I have to study hard all night."
Qu Qing also had a look of regret on his face, "No, I have to stay in the academy before the exam, what about you, Wenyuan?"
"I will definitely go with you. That's a deal."
The two men discussed it and looked at Mu Tou again, "Mu Tou, what about you?"
Mu Tou was very surprised. "Me? I ranked 10th in this monthly exam. Of course I go home every month."
Xu Wenyuan was envious and jealous, "If we don't reply, won't you be lonely at night?"
"You must be joking. I put the food in your place, so don't sleep too well. I'll help you eat more fried chicken and spicy chicken feet."
This person is really hateful.
Qu Qing and Xu Wenyuan didn't even look at each other. They shouted and rushed towards Mu Tou. The three of them were fighting in the carriage and Liu Bai outside almost fell over.
"Behave yourself, or you won't get any food."
The next second the carriage was silent.
Liu Bai rushed to Yueming Academy first. Qu Qing and Xu Wenyuan were carrying their bags and spoke to Mu Tou who was walking away.
"Remember to bring our food next month, and don't eat it all by yourself!"
Mu Tou opened the window and replied, "Dream on!"
Three months later, the results of the selection exam came out. Qu Qing ranked eleventh, Xu Wenyuan ranked thirty-fifth, and Yunkai only selected the top 20. This means that from now on, Xu Wenyuan will be the only one in Yueming Academy.
Xu Wenyuan refused to believe it and insisted on checking the test paper. After the test, he compared the answers with Qu Qing. Logically, he should have ranked in the 20th place at the worst, so how come he ranked 35th?
Xu Wenyuan's request was rejected by the academy. When Su He heard about this, she asked Dean Qi to check it out. She believed that Xu Wenyuan was not lying.
Dean Qi came in person to check the papers, and Yueming Academy had no way to refuse. After all, the selected students would go to Yunkai Academy to study, and Dean Qi was the one with the most say.
When they checked the final result, something big happened. Looking at the many similar answers, Director Qi suddenly realized that someone had leaked the answers to the exam.
The final result was a re-examination, with the test questions set on the spot by the teachers of Yunkai Academy.
This time, Qu Qing ranked fifth and Xu Wenyuan ranked sixteenth.
Both of them were successfully admitted to Yunkai Academy.
"What do you mean by saying that the students stole the papers? What a lie! I'm sure these teachers are involved. They took advantage of my family being a businessman and thought I could be manipulated by them."
Xu Wenyuan was furious. After the results came out, he went back to his residence to pack his luggage and prepare to return to Su's house.
Qu Qing also felt that what Xu Wenyuan said made sense. It was obvious that this was not something that could be accomplished by just a few students.
"Sister Hehua said that it was impossible for me to be ranked in the 30s. Not only did they leak the test questions to those students, but they also deliberately wrote my score so low. They are so mean."
This was the first time Xu Wenyuan was so angry, and Qu Qing felt uncomfortable watching this.
"Fortunately, we don't have to stay here anymore. Sister Hehua said that we will live with Mu Tou in the future. When I pass the exam, your child won't have to suffer these grievances."
Xu Wenyuan felt a little comforted when he heard this.
"I swear, I will pass the exam."
Two people came out carrying a bunch of things. Passing by other people's houses, they saw those cheating candidates. Xu Wenyuan looked at them coldly and left without saying a word.
Knowing this, Liu Niang specially made a lot of dishes that Xu Wenyuan liked. Fried chicken and spicy chicken feet were of course enough to fill him up, and there were also ice jelly, cold noodles, hot and sour noodles, and various cold dishes, which were changed every day.
Within a week, Xu Wenyuan had regained his former vitality.
Su He breathed a sigh of relief when she saw the little fat boy smiling again. This child still looks good when he smiles.
"Those who cheated have been disqualified from taking the provincial examination next year. Two teachers from Yueming Academy were also involved, and they will no longer be able to teach in the academy."
Xu Wenyuan nodded seriously, "Sister Hehua, thank you. If it weren't for you, they would definitely be fine, and I would definitely not be able to go to Yunkai Academy."
Su He sighed, "Wenyuan, study hard. When you pass the exam and become an official, don't learn from them. Be an upright official. If you meet people like you in the future, help them."
"Got it, Sister Lotus."
Xu Wenyuan answered seriously.
