The Farm Girl's Charismatic Fortune

By Xishui River, there lived a family with the surname Ruo, whose luck was so disastrously poor that it was as if misfortune was possessed by their very souls. When other families had bountiful harvests, the Ruo Family harvested not a single grain. Their planted vegetables were devoured by insects, their chickens got chicken plague, their pigs got swine fever… Despite the household being full of strong men, they were either mad, crippled, or blind… What would have been a family of great prospects became the poorest within ten miles. The only thing that others envied about the Ruo Family was its thriving male members! The old lady of the Ruo Family had given birth to six sons, who then gave her four grandsons. She dreamt day and night of having a granddaughter. When she finally got a grandchild, to her dismay, the child was mentally disabled: at over three years old, she still couldn’t speak or walk, couldn’t even eat or relieve herself without help. Everyone thought the Ruo Family would never turn their fortunes around in this lifetime! That was until the half-old three-year-old mentally disabled child suddenly called out, “Mom…” The heavens began to change. The world began to turn mysterious. In the Ruo Family’s courtyard, the persimmons ripened overnight. The vegetables in the fields, nearly nibbled bare by insects, turned lush and green. The old hen that had never laid eggs suddenly started laying… While others faced famine, the Ruo Family’s granary was full. The eldest son was no longer mad, the second son was no longer crippled, the third son was no longer blind… The old lady of the Ruo Family, with her hands on her hips, laughed heartily to the sky, “Who says my Xuanbao is a dimwit? She’s clearly a treasure of blessings!” (This is a farming novel with a hint of fairy charm, where the female protagonist in a previous life was a just-awakened daylily that has reincarnated as a human.)

Chapter 274: Being Targeted

The days quickly passed by as Xuanbao diligently ascended the mountain daily to study, soon arriving at the day of the Imperial Examination Court exam.

Ruo Shui and Ruo Jiang had both passed the county and prefectural exams and were only participating in the court exam as Scholars.

Therefore, they needed to finish the court exam before they could attempt the provincial exam. The child student exam was held a few days before the provincial one; those who passed could proceed to the provincial exam, and after passing that, they would wait for the imperial examinations to continue their trials.

Ordinarily, the provincial and court exams did not coincide, with the provincial exam occurring once every three years at the end of autumn, whereas the court exam was held every year in April or May.

However, this year was exceptional, as the Imperial Court had scheduled an additional court exam for reasons unknown.
