Spoilers for The Red Mansion, Daiyu’s mentality is broken

Chapter 56 Annunciation

The boy who came to Wang's house looked up from the bottom of the list.

He expected that Brother Huan would not win. He didn't pass the first game. How could he suddenly win in the end?

However, after looking at a few names, the boy who came to Wang's house always felt that something was wrong.

Yes, the names on the list this time seem to be quite different from last time.

He remembered that the names of the people last time seemed unusual. Almost all of them were named after numbers.

For example, Huang Shisan, Xuanjiu, Hong Qi and so on.

But now this list looks much more normal.

It seems that something went wrong.

Well, the boy who came to Wang's house didn't know that the rankings for the first game of the county examination were based on seat numbers.

The ranking of county examination examination rooms is based on thousand-character texts plus numbers.

For example, the first row is ranked by day, from day one to day twenty.

The next row will be sorted starting from the ground, and so on.

Of course the names he saw at that time were all named after numbers.

But today, the boy who came to Wang's house found that there was no one named after numbers on the list.

This discovery made the kid who came to Wang's house break out in white hair because he was scared.

What, what's going on here?
Could it be that he was wrong last time?
But it shouldn’t be, it’s right here, right here, and the list is almost the same.

The boy who came to Wang's house was puzzled and couldn't think about it at this time. He nervously looked up from the bottom of the list.

Now, he is looking forward to Brother Huan failing the exam. As long as Brother Huan fails the exam, everything will be easy.

If Brother Huan passes the exam, he will be really unlucky.

No, not this, not yet...

Seeing that there are not many left on the list, Brother Huan's name is still missing.

The boy who came to Wang's house couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Not long after, he saw the last name.

Because he looked at it from the bottom up, the last ranking was the top.

The boys who came to Wang's house didn't believe that Brother Huan could top the list in high school.

However, the last name actually has the word Jia Huan written on it.

This discovery made the boy who came to Wang's house feel cold.

At this time, he still had the last bit of luck in his heart.

He hoped that this Jia Huan just had the same name and was not the brother Huan in Jia's family.

However, when he saw the name "Jia Family" on the back of his hometown, the boy who came to the Wang family couldn't help but his eyes darkened, and he almost fell down.

Done!Done!
The first time he looked at the list, for some unknown reason, he didn't see Brother Huan's name.

Without asking anyone, he directly reported to his wife that Brother Huan had missed the shot.

The family has been laughing at Brother Huan for more than ten days, and he is one of the most mocking people.

But it just so happens that Brother Huan is in high school this time!And it’s still at the top of the list!

This top spot is like a slap in the face of all those who laugh at Brother Huan.

But all this was caused intentionally or unintentionally by the wife, so naturally this slap hit the wife's face.

The first reciter, but it was he who read the list who gave the wife false news...

His wife was slapped in the face, can he still be okay?

This warm meal will definitely be indispensable, and there will be countless little shoes for him to wear in the future.

Thinking of this, the boy who came to Wang's house couldn't help but tremble with fear. He almost couldn't help but want to flee.But I finally endured it.

Next, he ran towards Jia's mansion.

He wanted to send the news back quickly, hoping to get ahead of the person who brought the good news, so that he might be spared a few blows.

By the way, did Brother Huan win the first time?If he wins, why doesn't anyone go to the house to announce the good news?
……

In Jia's house, Jia's mother's room is still very lively. Everyone is still waiting for the boy who came to Wang's house to come back and report whether brother Huan has been selected.

Although everyone knew that Brother Huan would definitely not win, this was the good news they were waiting for.

Jia Huan, on the other hand, was endorsing books in the study.

Entering the fourth test of the county examination, in fact, it is basically passed, the only difference is the ranking.

Therefore, Jia Huan simply didn't look at the list.

As long as you win, you don't have to look for yourself, there will be people around to announce the good news.

If you have time to read the list, you might as well memorize an extra book at home and write two more words.

Outside, when Aunt Zhao saw that Jia Huan had not even looked at the results on the day when the results were released, she couldn't help but feel sad for a moment.

Xiao Jixiang and Ruyi were also very depressed.

It seems that the third master really failed the exam in the first test. If not, why didn't the third master look at the results today?
In vain, they had been lucky these past few days, hoping that the third master would go to high school today and then slap that little screwdriver in the face.

Now it seems that it is impossible.

But at this moment, they faintly heard the sound of gongs and drums coming from outside the house.

Aunt Zhao's ears couldn't help but prick up.

She quickly asked: "Xiao Jixiang, go and see what the noise is outside?"

Xiao Jixiang clasped his fists and said, "It's your order!"

After speaking, he ran out in a hurry.

The sound of gongs and drums gradually became clearer, and the sound seemed to come from the house.

This discovery made Aunt Zhao's heart beat violently.

At this time, everyone in Jia Mu's house also heard the sound of gongs and drums outside.

Jia Mu asked in confusion: "Whose family is having a happy event outside? Is it so lively?"

This whole street is called Rongning Street, and there are only two government palaces, Rongguo Mansion and Ningguo Mansion. When Jia Mu and others go to those houses, they all go there by sedan or car.

Logically speaking, most people would not go through this door when they have a happy event.

Now the sound of gongs and drums is coming from outside. How can Mother Jia not be surprised?

Wang Xifeng immediately stood up and said: "Ancestor, let me go out and ask, which company do you see doing what?"

At this time, outside Jia's Mansion, twelve people in red clothes came towards Jia's Mansion, beating gongs and drums.

These people are the ones who specialize in announcing good news.

Announcement of good news has become a profession, and the people who bring good news are all young people on the street. Only those with good legs, good eyesight, good words and certain connections can be the people who bring good news.

They know all the places in the imperial city, no matter where the candidates pass the exam, they can accurately find the place.

And the people who bring the good news are also divided into three, six or nine levels, such as high or low ranking, rich or poor of the host family, etc.

However, this is often not possible at the same time. Some people with high rankings may not necessarily have rich families, and those with wealthy families may not have high rankings.

It is really rare to encounter someone like today who is the first in the list and whose family is wealthy.

These twelve people who brought the good news were not one group, but three groups of people who brought the good news.

These are the top groups in the team of messengers, and no one can bear to part with the bounty from a big family like the Jia family, so these three groups simply separated themselves slightly and everyone came together.
