Marriage of the Di Daughter Chapter 63 Part 2: Good News
Pah, a middle-aged man spat to the ground and said loudly: If that Jiang second miss is really at the top of the list, Ill eat that pile-up horse dung at the door!
Everyone collectively looked towards the door. In the stable, a tall horse the color of red jujube was in the middle of swinging its tail. Sensing everyones gazes, the horse doubtfully looked inside the restaurant and raised its front hooves.
You dont believe it, then go ahead and see it yourself! That person had kindly provided everyone with the list of rankings and didnt expect to be insulted in turn. He stood on a stool and spoke angrily.
Well see then! A big man carrying a knife said: Look at your stupid and illiterate self.
He just finished speaking, and another diner ran inside the restaurant through the door. He was probably also a person from the restaurant who went to see the notice. Compared to the previous person, he was more straightforward and didnt pique the crowds curiosity at all. Once he entered the door, as if he was bringing huge news, he roared: Amazing, Ming Yi Halls examination rankings have come out. At the top of the list is the Jiang familys second miss, Jiang Li. This time the Meng familys miss has to humbly offer her apology and her reputation will fall to the bottom!
With this sentence, the crowd fell into absolute silence.
The person who was doubted before jumped down from the stool he was standing at and snorted coldly: You should believe it now. He straightened his clothes and walked away in a huff, leaving behind a pile of dumbstruck onlookers.
Ye Shijie looked at the chaos in front of his eyes. Originally he should be frowning, but unknowingly, he couldnt help smiling.
.It was also quiet today inside the Jiang residence.
Inside Wang Feng Hall, Ji Shuran was in the middle of having a chat with old madam Jiang. Jiang Bing Ji was sitting on one side eating pastries, Jiang You Yao and Jiang Yue were sitting in another position while Jiang Yuyan was lowering her head to embroider a handkerchief.
In a while the person who takes note of the examination list will come back. Ji Shuran held her upper tummy and smiled: Im rather nervous.
Elder sister-in-law has nothing to be nervous about. Lu-shi immediately smiled after: Your You Yao has nothing to be worried about. Unlike our second branch, Jing You is not a study material, Jing Rui. If he didnt give me a pile of troubles, the world would be peaceful already.
Jiang Jing Rui and Jiang Jing You also participated in the Imperial Colleges examination. However, in the examination year after year, the two brothers were just like that. Jiang Jing Yous grades were mediocre, Jiang Jing Rui came last in the rankings. Lu-shi no longer carried any hope.
Jiang Yue listened to their conversation and pursed her lips into a smile. Today she followed Jiang You Yao to Wan Feng Hall together precisely to wait for the person looking at the list to say the rankings so she could get old madam Jiangs praise. Let the people in the Jiang family see her talent and intelligence.
Why didnt the second sister come together? Jiang Yue said: When I came over, I let someone call her to come together.
I heard second sister is making tea in her courtyard, saying that she is not interested in the list. Jiang You Yao laughed generously, second sister doesnt wish to come, in that case dont force her to.
In everyones ears, naturally what was ringing was the wager between Jiang Li and Meng Hong Jin. Today three out of the six results came out, the overall situation was already half decided. It could be presumed that Jiang Li would come last. If Jiang Li lost, she would have to pay a huge price. As far as Jiang Li was concerned, naturally she wasnt willing to see it with her own eyes.
Wait for the result to come out, Ill go over to tell her. Ji Shuran smiled gently.
Old madam Jiang kept quiet.
As she was speaking, Zhenzu lifted the screen and said: Old Madam, the person who went to check the results has come back.
Come in.
The person who went to see the result was the Jiang residences young male servant. He first gave courtesy to the masters before speaking: From the four misses who went to participate in the examination, third miss is in fourth place, fourth miss is in 17th place and fifth miss is in third place.
When Jiang You Yao first heard that she was in fourth place, she was still pleased. But upon hearing that Jiang Yue got third place, she lowered her head, and her heart immediately felt extremely unhappy.
Jiang Yue restrained the ecstasy in her heart and looked at the young male servant to ask: Dont know which place did my second sister get?
That young male servant took out a rolled transcript of the list of rankings from his bosom and handed it to old madam Jiang. The corners of his mouth drew back, exposing a wide smile, his mouth said.
Second misss name is first, the best in this examination. Congratulations Old Madam!
