An hour passed quickly. Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong did not wait long at the entrance of the temple. Xuezheng Xu Zhengqing and several other classmates from Hangzhou Academy also gradually came out. Everyone returned to the boat together and set off for Hangzhou.

The river level in winter is slow, with no storms or heavy rain, so the journey back is as smooth as when you came, and it is safe and sound.

After spending three boring days and nights on the boat, the boat finally returned to the territory of Hangzhou Prefecture.

I don’t know who spread the news. When the boat docked at the dock, there were many people coming to greet the shore. Most of the students from Hangzhou Academy came.

They all looked at Xu Xian and others with anticipation. As soon as they got ashore, someone couldn't wait to ask: "What is the result of this Jiangnan Talented Literature Association?"

For scholars, perhaps the literary achievements of talented men in Jiangnan are not as important as those in the imperial examination. Because the first priority of scholars in the Dali Dynasty is to become officials and serve the court, and the rest are secondary.

But for the prefectures and academies, the Jiangnan Talented Literature Association is much more important than the imperial examination.

The imperial examination only represents individuals, but the talented literary association can represent the honor of the academy, and even the honor of the entire Hangzhou Prefecture.

This time, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong finally appeared in Hangzhou Prefecture, two geniuses, were looking forward to a breakthrough in the Jiangnan Cultural Association.

Fortunately, they lived up to expectations. Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong not only won the title of Jiangnan Talent, but also became a Confucian scholar, becoming a rare Confucian scholar in the entire Dali Dynasty!

When Xu Zhengqing smiled and announced the results, the crowds who came to greet him were all excited and excited. Hangzhou Academy occupied two of the three talented men in Jiangnan, and they were the best two, which had never been there in many years!

Now the news of the Jiangnan Talented People's Cultural Association has not been conveyed yet. After a while, the major newspapers will definitely announce the results of the Cultural Association.

By then, the limelight of Hangzhou Academy may be overshadowed by Jinling Academy!

Of course, Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong, who won the name of Jiangnan's talent, will naturally spread throughout the Dali Dynasty and become representative figures of Jiangnan students after Li Pan.

Therefore, the academy decided to hold a celebration banquet for Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong tonight!

Hangzhou Academy has a unique feeling of being the first time in Jiangnan. It is naturally necessary to celebrate it.

Xu Xian and Fang Zhongyong got off the boat together, accepted everyone's congratulations and congratulations, and responded politely one by one.

But Fang Zhongyong, who had always been focused on doing things and looked at them in a stern manner, seemed a little careless at this time, and his attention was obviously attracted by other things. Xu Xian just looked at him, shook his head and understood.

A boy who is trapped in love!

Among the onlookers, there was a girl with a round face and very cute and clever face, looking at Fang Zhongyong with a smile; and Fang Zhongyong was absent-minded about others, because most of her energy was devoted to Mudan.

I haven't seen each other for many days, so I miss you very much.

However, now there are so many people watching, and they will attend the celebration banquet later. Even if the two of them are close, they cannot whisper immediately. To relieve the pain of longing, they will have to wait until the evening.

"What a happy thing!" Xu Xian still thought with some envy in his heart.

Fang Zhongyong will be able to relieve his longing at night, but he will at least have to wait until next Qingming Festival.

Fortunately, it is already the 18th day of the twelfth lunar month, and there are still ten days left to New Year's Eve, and this year is about to pass.

The end of the year has passed, will the next Qingming Festival be far away?

...

...

After the celebration banquet, it was time for Hangzhou Academy to have a holiday.

The Dali Dynasty had few college holidays, and there was no so-called holidays. Only when students had something to do, they could ask the college teacher for leave.

The only holiday every year is New Year's Eve. The holiday starts from the end of the twelfth lunar month, until the Lantern Festival on the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, which will take nearly one month.

The students of the academy left one after another. After Xu Xian and He Liang arranged many matters at Yuewei Bookstore, they also returned to Qiantang County together.

Xu Jiaorong thought two days ago that Xu Xian should be coming back, so while preparing for the goods for many years, he also bought two old hens for Xu Xian, preparing to make chicken soup for Xu Xian to drink after Xu Xian came back to replenish his body.

Regardless of whether she gets married or not, no matter how old Xu Xian is, and how promising she is, in Xu Jiaorong's heart, Xu Xian's position will never change, and she is still the object of her sister's care.

Xu Jiaorong did not ask much about his experience in Jinling City. After knowing that Xu Xian had won the title of Jiangnan's talent, he went to work and cook with a smile. After her younger brother became aware of his studies, he became more and more powerful. Even if he became the world's number one talent in the future, she would take it for granted, let alone Jiangnan's number one talent?

However, Li Gongfu and Xu Xian were drinking tea and chatting about a lot of experiences in Jinling City.

A big man always has a heart around and always has curiosity about the outside world. As the most prosperous city in Jiangnan, Li Gongfu was also very curious about the ancient capital of the Six Dynasties.

"Now my brother-in-law is a little envious of you scholars. It's great to read thousands of books and travel thousands of miles!" Li Gongfu sighed. After saying that, he looked at Xu Jiaorong who was busy, shook his head again, and said with a happy look: "But after I marry your sister, my heart is almost filled! Although the outside world is wonderful, it is not very attractive to me."

Seeing this, Xu Xian smiled slightly.

This should be the best way to live, right? I only envy the mandarin ducks but not the immortals.

After meeting my wife, I won’t have such thoughts?

Just when Xu Xian was a little immersed, Li Gongfu suddenly turned his head and whispered in a secret way: "By the way, Chinese, I want to tell you something, you have to be a little mentally prepared."

Xu Xian was stunned and asked, "What's the matter?"

"Your sister is starting to introduce you to a partner, and she intends to get married and get married." Li Gongfu said with a chuckling, with a bit of gloating in her words.

Xu Xian was shocked and said in surprise: "Didn't my sister tell me that she will wait for two years to discuss this issue?"

Li Gongfu shrugged and smiled and said, "Your sister did think so. But you can't stand the Chinese and you are so famous that you have become the most ideal person for unmarried girls in Qiantang County and even Hangzhou Prefecture. Every day, someone comes to your sister to match you."

"But my sister said she won't be moved!"

"On ordinary vulgar fans, your sister will naturally not be moved. But this time, the girl has good conditions in all aspects. Your sister can't help but be moved. She has made up her mind to match you."

Xu Xian suddenly felt a headache.

It seemed that things were not simple. He knew very well that once his sister Xu Jiaorong decided on something, it would not be so easy to change.

I'm too busy during the day and I really don't have time to write, so I can only stay up late at night. Try to code two more chapters today... try to...
