Shengping County

Shen Jingwen was pacing around the room, while Mr. Shen didn't stop smoking on the kang bed.

Mrs. Shen was being choked by the smoke!

"Old man, can you smoke less?" She was almost choked to death!

Mr. Shen didn't speak, he didn't want to smoke either, but not smoking would leave him restless!

For this imperial examination, Yuzhu had married Mr. Tan's younger brother, who is twelve years her senior. He's so old he could be her father!

If he had any other choice back then, he wouldn't have…

Ah! He must get passed this time!

"They're here! The bearers of the good news have reached the village!" Shen Chengguang excitedly ran in.

"Dad, quick, let's all go to the front door to greet them!" Shen Chengguang signaled nonstop to the others who were still dazedly sitting on the kang bed!

Haven't they been waiting for the news since early in the morning? Why aren't they reacting now that the messengers have come!
