Chapter 190 Scholar
After Song Ruize left, Qin Huiyin closed the courtyard door.
As I turned around, I saw a dark shadow standing at the door of the bedroom in front of me.
She was startled, patted her chest, and said helplessly: "Mom, you scared me."
"That kid is injured again?" Li Taohua leaned against the door and said lazily.
"A little injury."
"What's the matter with his return this time?"
"He said he forgot something at home."
Li Taohua's gaze stayed on Qin Huiyin.
Qin Huiyin was still wearing the cloak, which was the same style as the one Song Ruize had just worn, just in a different color.
This kid...
Like raising a younger sister?
I never noticed he had such a habit before.
If we had discovered it earlier, we would have been better off for him.
Her daughter is so cute, who can not like her?
As long as the person loves her daughter, she doesn't care about any disaster or evil spirit or coffin.
Seeing that Li Taohua asked so many questions, Qin Huiyin thought that she was going to persuade her not to associate with him as she did before, but she said nothing. She just asked a few questions and went back to her room.
Before daybreak, Song Ruize drove away in his carriage. However, just as the carriage reached the gate of the Tang family's house, the gate opened and Qin Huiyin stood there holding a homemade lantern.
"I guess you will leave the village at this time." Qin Huiyin said, "Breakfast is ready, come in and eat before you leave."
Song Ruize got off the carriage and tied it up.
This time when he stepped into the Tang family's house again, he didn't even show any shyness. He stepped into the Tang family's territory with confidence and even helped Qin Huiyin.
It was still early, and Qin Huiyin wanted to have breakfast later since she wasn't going into town today. Song Ruize was eating the wontons she had made while she dozed off beside him.
The lantern was placed on the table, illuminating her face.
Song Ruize was eating wontons when he looked up and saw her round and cute little face.
Her eyelashes are very long, and when they flutter, they look like beautiful little butterflies.
Qin Huiyin suddenly woke up, opened her eyes and looked at him, meeting his gaze.
Song Ruize took a bite and suddenly choked and started coughing violently.
Qin Huiyin stood up, patted his back, and said, "Why are you in such a hurry to eat? Even if you have to hurry, there is no need to rush now."
Song Ruize coughed up the water he had choked on and buried his head in eating the wontons. His movements became faster and faster. After he finished quickly, he put down the spoon in his hand and said, "I'm leaving first."
"Wait a minute..." Qin Huiyin took out a large bag of things from the kitchen. "Take these with you. You were just injured and need to replenish your energy. Oh, and take this medicine with you too."
Song Ruize took it and said, "Go back to sleep!"
"Then go slowly." Qin Huiyin yawned, "I'm going to take a nap."
Busy days always pass quickly. Qin Huiyin calculated the time and on the day of the announcement of the results, she stopped her business for the day and took her whole family to the city to see the results.
In fact, after Tang Yichen finished his exam, his entire family went to the examination center to pick him up. Qin Huiyin had originally wanted him to stay home for a few days, but Tang Yichen felt that if he went back before the results were out, the villagers would probably bother him constantly. Rather than going back to the village and being disturbed, he decided it would be better to stay at the academy and continue studying. After the results were out, he would go back and celebrate with his family.
The day of the announcement was always particularly lively. Not only did the students from various academies come that day, but also their families. However, Qin Huiyin had already made arrangements and took them directly to the other side.
Across from the teahouse was a part of the Xia family's business. Qin Huiyin had already spotted the location and told Xia Ruwan that they would go to the teahouse's side room to see the results.
Li Taohua and his wife stood at the window with their four children, looking at the bulletin board opposite.
"It's still early, everyone can have some tea and snacks first. When the list comes out, you can listen to the noise outside and see the results. You can stand by the window and see the results."
Xia Ruwan's voice came over.
Qin Huiyin turned around and saw Xia Ruwan appear. She greeted her with a smile: "Sister Xia."
Xia Ruwan smiled and said, "Our shop is ready, just waiting for the tables and chairs to be delivered. Carpenter Zhang said it will be finished in five days. So should we start selecting our employees?"
"I want to personally select the guys and train them as employees. Do you have any requirements, sister?"
"We agreed that I would only be responsible for the money, and you would be responsible for the recipes and personnel management. Since that's the case, I'll leave it all to you. I'll just check the accounts once a month."
There was a noisy sound coming from outside, and when they heard it, they knew that the list had been announced.
Qin Huiyin strode over and stood in front of the window looking outside.
Tang Yichen pulled her over and let her stand in the front.
Qin Huiyin, Tang Luwu, and Tang Yixiao were the shortest, standing at the front. Tang Yichen and the Tang Dafu couple stood in the back row. Several pairs of eyes eagerly looked towards the list.
Although they were very confident in Tang Yichen, they were still worried until they saw the results.
The officers came out with a huge list, tied it to two tall wooden poles, and hung them up.
People who were looking at the list rushed forward.
"Brother, you are the first." Tang Yi smiled and pointed at the list opposite and shouted excitedly.
Tang Yichen let out a light breath.
"It's just a college entrance exam. The questions aren't difficult, so passing it won't be a big deal."
"Mr. Tang is too modest. You must not let those who failed the exam hear what you said, otherwise they might not be able to leave my teahouse in one piece." Xia Ruwan said, "Besides, Mr. Tang was the first to pass the exam. There were so many people who passed, but only one person took first place. This means that your ability is superior to theirs."
"Ms. Xia, you are too kind." Tang Yichen said politely.
"Today is a big day. As a friend of Miss Huiyin, I also want to share in the scholar's joy. I will treat you all to a simple meal at the restaurant. How about it?"
"Thank you, Sister Xia. However, there's no reason for you to spend the money. Today, our whole family will go to Sister Xia's restaurant for dinner. Sister Xia can just give us a discount."
"You don't want me to be affected by the scholar's happiness?"
"We're having dinner at Sister Xia's restaurant to bring her happiness. Besides, look at all those excited people outside. I'm afraid Sister Xia won't be able to contain her happiness."
"Okay, then I'll prepare my best signature dish for you. Is that okay?"
As the Tang family members left the teahouse, Tang Yichen stopped and said to Qin Huiyin, "Little sister, I saw my mentor. Can we invite him to dinner today?"
"Brother, since you want to invite, just invite the teachers from the private school and the academy! You got the first place in the exam, so you should hold a thank-you banquet for the teachers." Qin Huiyin said.
"It's just..." Tang Yichen hesitated, "Today we are all together as a family, so we should celebrate with our own family first."
"The teachers are all here checking the rankings. Now is the best time to invite them to dinner. We'll have to invite them one by one another some other time, and they may not be available. In order not to interrupt your conversation, we'll be in the next room. Once you and the teachers have had enough to drink, we can pick you up." Qin Huiyin said, "It's settled. Let's set up the thank-you banquet today."
