Quickly wear and change the fate of the little cannon fodder

Chapter 232: The Cannon Fodder Ex-wife in the Ancient Time Travel Novel 39

In early February after the Spring Festival, the Spring Examination began, and Xia Xiaoxiao sent her three sons to the examination room. In March, the results of the Spring Examination came out, and the three brothers' scores were very good, all in the top ten!

In Wu'an Marquis Mansion, firecrackers were set off and copper coins were scattered everywhere to congratulate the three brothers for becoming Jinshi (a successful candidate in the imperial examination). They are now just waiting for the palace examination in April!

In mid-March, the hero and heroine, with everything ready, packed their bags, took seven golden flowers, said goodbye to the Wen family, and set off for Kyoto!

In April, the palace examination began. The three brothers performed exceptionally well and won the first, third and fifth place, which caused a sensation in the capital! The three brothers of Wu'an Marquis Mansion once again became the talk of the town!

When the top scholar paraded through the streets, Xia Xiaoxiao had booked a room in a restaurant with the best view long before! She prepared a lot of flower petals, and when the three top scholars passed by, the flower petals fell from the sky, which was simply beautiful.

The three brothers looked up at the same time and saw their mother, who was scattering flower petals at them like a flower fairy, smiling from ear to ear.

It was just hard for the runner-up. He looked a lot duller between the two handsome brothers. Unfortunately, he was allergic to pollen, and the petals falling from the sky also drenched him. He didn't want to sneeze and ruin the atmosphere at the most glorious moment of his life, so he could only hold it back, and his nose turned red.

Of course, Xia Xiaoxiao also saw that her sons were looking at her. She picked out a few of the most beautiful flowers and threw them directly to her sons, with great force and accuracy.

The three brothers were all martial artists, and when they saw their mother throwing the flowers over, they reached out to take them. This action made the ladies around them explode.

"The champion received the flowers. Did you see that? Whose flowers did they receive?"

"Why didn't he take my flowers? It's all my fault that I'm not strong enough."

"Ah... my handkerchief fell before it reached the number one scholar. I should have wrapped a piece of cake in it."

"Ah, the top scholar is so handsome, I wonder if my father will snatch him back?"

"Tanhua is not bad either. I like Tanhua, especially that smile just now. It almost charmed me to death."

"Come on, just give up. Do you think you can get the top scholar to marry you? He definitely won't like your arrogant and domineering personality."

"You...you've gone too far! I'm going to tear your mouth apart..."

……

Cheering, screaming, making noise, throwing flowers, throwing handkerchiefs...it was so lively.

The Marquis of Wu'an's mansion held a three-day banquet! At this time, the mansion was full of flowers and the banquet halls were full of guests. There were wine glasses, acrobatics, operas, poems, and couplets.

The atmosphere, which was already very good, reached its peak after receiving the imperial edict from the current emperor granting marriages to all three brothers and that the eldest son would officially inherit the title.

Now the Wu'an Marquis Mansion is officially up and running! Xia Xiaoxiao entertained guests in the mansion with a smile on her face, but she was crying out in her heart.

"No way? No way? She is only 30 years old this year. What did you just hear? Everyone calls her old lady. How is she old? How can those people call her old lady just by looking at her beautiful face?"

Ever since her son received the imperial edict and became a marquis, she was immediately promoted! Everyone was congratulating the old lady, congratulating the old lady, and she was shocked when she heard this title, and she thought that the old lady Leng had appeared! Finally, she realized that these people were congratulating her. Could she refuse these congratulations?

Her mother Wang saw her expression and guessed what it meant. When she first heard someone call her daughter "old lady", she also laughed so hard when she saw her daughter's expression as if she was struck by lightning! But then she couldn't laugh anymore.

"My dear ancestor, you are the most lucky. Your children are all successful. You must be enjoying a peaceful life now, right?" A white-haired old lady from the Leng family greeted Wang!

Wang's smile froze on her face instantly, and she thought to herself, I used to think I had a good life, but now when I hear your name, I suddenly feel bad.

Now she has the same idea as her daughter. Old sister, do you want to listen to what you just said? How can she be called an ancestor? Isn't ancestor a term for people who are about to be buried? She is only in her fifties, how can she be called an ancestor?

The hero and heroine also stepped into the gate of the capital on the day of the parade of the top scholar. As soon as they entered the gate, they felt that the atmosphere of the whole capital was very good, and everyone was in a happy mood.

He quickly grabbed a passerby and asked what happy event was today. The passerby rolled his eyes at him and said, "You are from another place, right? Even if you are from another place, you should know that today is the day for the top scholar to be paraded through the streets." After saying that, he left, as he wanted to watch the fun.

Yes, this year is the first imperial examination since His Majesty ascended the throne, no wonder it is so lively! It's just that they have been traveling so much, and the closer they get to the capital, the more they feel homesick, and they don't have the mind to pay attention to other things!

The whole family decided to find an inn to get a room and get a little organized. However, they were very unlucky. The inns were much more expensive that day, and the expenses in the capital were much higher than those in small places.

They could only go to the cheapest inn and book three rooms. After everything was sorted out, they would go and ask someone about the affairs of Wu'an Marquis Mansion!

When he learned that the Marquis of Wu'an Mansion was holding a banquet to entertain guests today, just to celebrate the fact that the Marquis, the second son and the third son of the mansion had all passed the imperial examination and became Jinshi! And the third son was the top scholar and the second son was the third scholar, he was completely numb.

When the man saw them asking about Wu'an Marquis Mansion, he thought they were poor relatives of Wu'an Marquis Mansion, and his whole face was full of contempt. He thought to himself, what kind of people are they? They didn't come when they were so hard, but now that they are rich, they come to curry favor with them and make relatives! Isn't this bullying the orphans and widows in Wu'an Marquis Mansion? Although he couldn't stop anything, he could still despise such people.

Leng Mufeng felt that what he had heard was not the Wu'an Marquis Mansion that he was familiar with. All the news he heard made him feel so strange. His biological mother only gave birth to a son and a sister. How could there be a second son or a third son who could become the top scholar?

Was he dreaming? He continued to ask around. After asking around a few people, he was able to piece together the facts.

It turned out that the old lady of Wu'an Marquis's Mansion had passed away several years ago, and the old lady in charge now was the wife he married back then! The young man who passed the first place in the imperial examination, the second place in the imperial examination, and the imperial examination was a posthumous child, and it was triplets.

So, those three children were his? His wife gave birth to three children for him without his knowledge, and raised them so well.

What about him? What did he do all these years? A young woman who had to take care of her husband and mother-in-law shortly after getting married, and also had to give birth to and raise three children by herself, and nurture these three children into talents.

But he was a man of seven feet tall, but he had wasted years and achieved nothing. He and his new wife couldn't even support a family, and they lived like this, and even sold their body in the end... It really made him feel ashamed.

That day he locked himself in the inn room, refusing to eat or drink, and thinking about his mistakes behind closed doors without saying a word! But even so, he still did not give up the idea of recognizing his relatives.

After thinking about it for a long time, he convinced himself, and even felt a little proud. These children were so outstanding because of his excellent bloodline! Otherwise, how could his son pass the exam when so many powerful people in the capital did not pass it?

The next day, he tidied up his appearance, let the children rest in the inn first, and he took his wife to the marquis' mansion!

Because it was a three-day banquet, the Marquis's Mansion was still bustling today! He even asked the servants to set up a stall at the door, so that passers-by could enjoy the festive mood and eat steamed buns for free, so there was a long line at the door.

Leng Mufeng and his wife headed straight for the gate, but were stopped by the gatekeeper. "Hey, hey, hey, ladies, I'm talking to you! Line up over there to get the steamed buns. You can't go through the back door, and you can't cut in line!"

"That's right, so many of us are watching! Come and line up at the back. Can't you see we are all queuing here?" The people in the queue were also making a fuss. They, who have worked so hard to line up, hate people who cut in line the most.

Wen Qingyue couldn't help it. She had been attracted by this grand courtyard before. She was so happy to think that she would be one of the masters here in the future. But she didn't expect to be stopped at the gate.

"What are you talking about? We are not here to get steamed buns. Open your eyes and see clearly. This is the Marquis, the Marquis Wu'an. He is the real master of this mansion." The good days are just around the corner, how could we be stopped at the gate?

"Haha, hahaha!"

"Haha, hahaha!"

"Haha, hahaha!"

Everyone in the queue burst into laughter.

"There are rare things every year, but this year there are more. From yesterday to today, I have seen many poor relatives come to seek kinship and to claim kinship, and now there is even someone who says he is a marquis."

"That's right, this is too outrageous, it's really funny. If a lady says she is the Marquis, even if she wants to recognize her relatives, she should give a better reason. Why doesn't she say she is the Marquis's wife?"

"You two, I suggest you have some steamed buns. That's more reliable. Why are you daydreaming in broad daylight?"

"Look at what you said. If you don't daydream during the day, do you do it at night?"

Everyone burst into laughter again, and the hero and heroine were embarrassed by their laughter.

The servant guarding the gate was also a little amused, "Stop joking here, go get the steamed buns. Everyone is happy today, and the steamed buns are made of white flour. As for the Marquis you mentioned, the old Marquis died more than ten years ago, and the current Marquis is entertaining guests in the mansion! So the Marquis in the mansion is not missing, and pretending to be the Marquis will not work."

After he finished speaking, everyone burst into laughter again and urged them to line up quickly, otherwise the steamed buns would be gone.
