Rise From the Humble

"Congratulations to Zhu Ping'an from Anqing Prefecture for winning the first place in Enke High School's examination!"

When Xu Laosan was reading the good news in Duke Wei's mansion, the curious people around him craned their necks to come over to see the good news. Although there was speculation that Huiyuan might not be Fatty Zhou but someone else who would try Enke this time. But after seeing the facts written in black and red on the good news, I couldn't help but read it out loud in surprise.

Zhu Pingan!

If Fatty Zhou just said "Fifth brother-in-law, your good news" with a constipated face and a mournful expression, it was like a drum sound, making people just suspicious;

So at this moment, looking at the good news and reading out loud, "Congratulations to Zhu Ping'an of Anqing Prefecture for winning the first place in the exam of Enke High School" read out loud, it was like a thunder that exploded in people's hearts. The news that Enke Huiyuan is Zhu Pingan is an ironclad fact.

Enke Huiyuan, Zhu Pingan!

The news was too sudden for people to accept.

Even if Huiyuan is Fatty Zhou, people can still accept it, but Huiyuan is Zhu Ping'an, but people can't accept it for a while.

Who is Zhu Pingan?

He is the fifth uncle of the Marquis of Linhuai Mansion who is about to break off the engagement. He is a country bumpkin. He is a freeloader. He is mediocre and incompetent. He and he have no less than fifty unsightly versions of stories in the Marquis of Linhuai Mansion. These fifty stories version of the story, even if only one version falls on me, I can't help but feel ashamed and commit suicide!

But the fact is that this person fell to Enke Huiyuan for this examination.

He sat up in shock while dying of illness. Who is more beautiful, me or Mr. Xu? People's mood at this time was almost the same as when they heard this sentence. They were dumbfounded and could not recover for a long time.

People were stunned and turned their attention once again to the young man they had despised just now.

The young man looks very ordinary. To use the word mediocre to describe him is not an exaggeration at all. He even looks a bit honest.

Too ordinary! Throwing it into the crowd is like a drop of water falling into the sea, inconspicuous. He doesn't have any sense of talent at all, let alone the charm that Huiyuan should have. Many people here are more Huiyuan than him. For example, Xu Laosan from Wei Guogong's mansion can definitely beat him by several blocks. .

Compared with people's surprise, the people who reacted more strongly were the immediate stakeholders of this meeting.

For example, the real protagonist of this banquet is the old lady of the Linhuai Marquis Mansion who is celebrating her sixtieth birthday. Just now, she was full of energy, shouting "big reward" with excitement and trembling, and standing to direct the stewards to set off firecrackers. She looked like an old lady who was more than ten years younger. But now her eyes darkened and she almost fainted on the spot. Fortunately, she was next to her. The big girl Zicuckoo who was close to her helped the old lady in time and pinched the old lady's mouth. She just managed to keep from fainting. However, her whole body seemed to have exhausted all her energy. She fell softly on the seat with a look on her face. haze.

For example, at another table, the Marquis of Linhuai, Li Tingzhu, heard people reading the words on the good news loudly. The wine glass he was holding was trembling with excitement. It seemed to be red-hot at this moment. Marquis of Linhuai Li Tingzhu's hand seemed to have been burned. With a bang, the wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, breaking into pieces.

But not everyone was so stunned and surprised, for example, some people cheered.

"I got it, I got it, my uncle got it. Miss, Miss, my uncle got it~~~First place, Huiyuan~~~"

After hearing the news that Zhu Ping'an had passed the exam, Hua'er, the little maid of Baozi, hugged Li Shu's arm excitedly and jumped up and down. To describe it, it seemed that every cell in her body was beating with joy, and she couldn't help but hug her young lady's arm and jump up and down.

Li Shu let her bunny maid hold her arms and have fun, her watery eyes looked at the boy holding the teacup affectionately, the corners of her mouth slightly curved up.

Did you see that, that is my husband-in-law, Li Shu!

There seemed to be a sweet and refreshing wind passing through Li Shu's heart!

The cheers of Baozi's little maid awakened the surrounding ladies of the Hou Mansion.

The young ladies who had come out of the room excitedly, with blushing faces, seemed to have suffered a great blow at this moment. Although there was a smile on their faces, the smiles were full of reluctance.

Especially when Xu Penghui from Wei Guogong's mansion came here just now, the fifth lady of Hou's mansion, who was still full of enthusiasm, deer bumping, high-spirited, and looked down on Li Shu, now her face was even more terribly pale, and the handkerchiefs in her hands were all clenched into a ball.

At this moment, she finally understood why the fifth sister was so calm and calm while sipping tea when Xu Penghui won the 38th place!

At this moment, she finally understood that when Xu Penghui was ranked thirty-eight just now, she thought how envious and jealous Fifth Sister was, and how ridiculous it was for her to want to see Fifth Sister envy and hate! The husband she has yet to decide on is only the thirty-eighth one, but the husband the fifth sister has decided on is the first Huiyuan!

The sixth lady of the Hou Mansion had a pale face and looked at the country bumpkin fifth brother-in-law who was the focus of everyone's attention in the crowd:

The fifth brother-in-law of the country bumpkin looks ordinary, like a drop of water dripping in the ocean. He looks simple and honest, but on this simple and honest face, there is a pair of black and bright eyes, which are always radiant, as if Seems to be able to see everything.

The fifth brother-in-law, a country bumpkin, had a faint smile on his face at the moment. He raised his hands and smiled in front of everyone. He was neither humble nor arrogant, neither arrogant nor arrogant. He was as calm as when he first entered the Marquis Mansion and was laughed at by himself. The words he said that day seemed to still be in his ears: Like you. , a good-looking boy with a nice voice, pure and refined, handsome and smart, a good boy who floats like catkins in the wind and is curious. To be honest, one country bumpkin like me can beat ten.

What most surprised the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion was that the bumpkin fifth brother-in-law was only fourteen or fifteen years old this year. Oh, yes, he was the same age as the fifth sister and herself, but he was only fourteen years old. Thinking of this, the sixth lady of the Hou Mansion trembled. The fifth brother-in-law won the Huiyuan at the age of fourteen! He is more than four years younger than Xu Penghui! Fourteen-year-old Huiyuan felt frightened just thinking about it!

The sixth lady of the Hou Mansion turned her eyes from the bumpkin fifth brother-in-law to the fifth sister Li Shu. At this moment, the fifth sister was curling her lips.

Finally, the sixth lady of the Hou family finally understood why the beautiful fifth sister would be betrothed to such a country bumpkin fifth brother-in-law, and finally understood why the fifth sister was dismissive when she heard everyone in the Hou family slandering the country bumpkin fifth brother-in-law.

That's right, disdain, fifth sister disdain!

There are many people like the Sixth Miss of the Hou Mansion who want to see it this way at the birthday banquet of the Hou Mansion. However, there are exceptions. For example, this morning, she had a sunken look and blocked the door of the small courtyard of Zhu Pingan's guest room for half a day. She kindly tried to persuade Zhu Pingan to be quiet. Don't lose the face of the Marquis Mansion and Li Shu by staying in the corner. This is not the case for Young Master Zheng.

After Mr. Zheng listened to people looking at the good news and reading out the sentence on the good news: "Good news for the exam, congratulations to Zhu Ping'an of Anqing Prefecture for winning the first place in Enke High School in the exam", he felt as if he had been greatly stimulated. Crossing the crowd, muttering "It's a mistake, it's a mistake", he came to the side of Xu Laosan in the Duke of Wei's mansion, holding the good news of the general trial in his hand.

I must have made a mistake. That country bumpkin is not as good at writing poetry as I am, and I even instruct him in Eight-part Questioning.

Mr. Zheng couldn't believe in his heart that Zhu Ping'an, who was not as good as him in poetry, inferior to himself in stereotyped writing, or inferior to him in everything else, would win the Huiyuan Prize.

Then, the persistent general read the good news about the trial over and over again, but the three words Zhu Ping'an on the good news couldn't be clearer, like a roaring slap, falling heavily on his face.

I don't want to talk, I want to be quiet.
