Hardly.
Previously, the Liu Family only knew how to make money and eat their meals, but now, it seems as if auspicious smoke is rising from their ancestral tomb. The two brothers have both passed the examinations with honors. Are they truly that remarkable? You must know that there are countless talented scholars in this world, like Scholar Wu, who has studied diligently for over a decade, yet also failed to achieve recognition like Sun Shan.
Moreover, the year before last at the autumn provincial exams, the time Liu Zixian passed...
It was shortly after Lu Qian was arrested.
Outside, Wang Chunchi was still basking in the compliments of "The eldest son becomes an official, so does the younger," while Lu Tong was lost in thought until the sound of Yin Zheng putting down her chopsticks interrupted her reverie.
Only when she saw Yin Zheng put down her bowl did Lu Tong say, "If you're done eating, you can go."
