Chapter 2032 Head of Case

"What do you want to bet on?" the fat boy asked.

Song Yan said: "Just bet on whether I will be a boy. If I win, you lose five taels of silver to me. If I lose, I will give you five taels of silver!"

"this?"

The fat boy couldn't help but show hesitation. Five taels of silver was not a small amount for him.

"Don't you dare to gamble? Forget it!" Song Yan smiled and shook his head.

The fat boy frowned and said, "Who said I don't dare to gamble anymore? I'm just worried that a poor guy like you won't be able to come up with five taels of silver!"

"Snapped!"

Song Yan directly put a few pieces of broken silver on the table: "No more, no less, exactly five taels."

Suddenly, the obese boy became unable to dismount.

"What about you?" Song Yan asked, "You are making fun of me for being poor. I have already given out five taels of silver. You can't give it out, right?"

Hearing this, everyone looked at the obese boy strangely, while the other person's face was full of embarrassment. Save five taels of silver, which is enough for a family of three to live for half a year. Although the obese boy has a small amount of money, he can't carry it with him. Five taels of silver.

"I just forgot to bring my purse!"

Although he couldn't bring out five taels of silver, the fat boy still refused to admit defeat.

"Brother Huang, since you didn't bring your money bag, I'll lend you five taels first." Xiao Yu took out an ingot of silver weighing five taels and put it on the table.

"Thank you, Brother Xiao!" Huang Xian said gratefully.

"It's nothing but a trivial matter, I just don't want to see some people being too arrogant!" Xiao Yu glanced at Song Yan as if demonstrating, and then said: "What's your name, lest you take it for granted!"

"Haha, I don't change my name when I'm sitting, I don't change my surname when I stand, my name is Song Yan!"

Half an hour passed leisurely.

Another red list was posted, and thirty children were also admitted.

Chen Chong was about to look at the list, but Song Yan said: "Brother, please be patient and don't rush there!"

at this time.

A young boy ran up to the teahouse, and then said to the obese young man: "Master, Master, you won, fifty-nine!"

"Ha ha!"

Hearing this, the obese young man couldn't help but laugh, looking very proud. Immediately, all the students in the teahouse opened their eyes and congratulated him.

Immediately afterwards, several more boys came to the teahouse one after another, but several more students became children. For a while, the teahouse became very lively.

"Go and see if there is anyone named Song Yan on the list!"

Huang Xian ordered the young man.

Less than half a quarter of an hour later, the boy came back: "Master, there is no Song Yan!"

"Boy, just wait to lose five taels of silver!" Hearing this, Huang Xian breathed a sigh of relief and looked at Song Yan with disdain.

"Isn't there another list?"

Song Yan said calmly.

Huang Xian sneered and said: "You even want to be at the top of the list, you don't overestimate your capabilities!"

"We'll know in time when the red list is posted!" Song Yan picked up the tea cup and took a sip.

Time passed slowly.

Finally, the last red list was posted.

"Brother, come down here and take a look!" Song Yan ordered.

"good!"

Chen Chong exited the teahouse excitedly, then squeezed into the crowd and looked at the red list. He started looking at the last one.

"No!"

"No!"

"still none!"

Yi Nian looked at more than a dozen names but didn't see Song Yan's name. Chen Chong couldn't help but panic, and he continued to look down.

Fifteen.

Fourteen.

Thirteen.

…………

When he saw that the third place didn't have Song Yan's name.

The second place is Xiao Yu, a student from Hongyu Township.

"That kid actually won second place!"

Chen Chong felt vaguely that there was something wrong, that boy could actually get the second place.

With luck, his eyes fell on the first criminal. When he saw the criminal's name, his breathing suddenly tightened. It turned out to be...

Inside the teahouse.

Song Yan was drinking tea in An Ran. With his eyesight, he had already seen that he was on the list, and he was...

Huang Xian on the side sneered secretly.

at this time.

A boy rushed up to the teahouse and shouted excitedly: "Master, you won, you won second place!"

Hearing this, Xiao Yu was not only unhappy, but also showed a bit of gloom on his face. He considered himself to be the best among the younger generation in Huangshan County, and the head of the case was also in his pocket, but someone actually took it away from him. The head of the case.

"Who! Who robbed me of the crime?" Xiao Yu shouted in his heart, and then he asked with a cold face: "Who is the crime leader?"

"It seems to be called Song Yan."

The boy said.

Suddenly, Xiao Yu, Huang Xian, and a group of students all stared at Song Yan, who had a calm expression.

After a brief silence, a group of students came forward to congratulate Song Yan.

At this moment, Chen Chong's voice came: "Xiao Lang, you are hit, you are the head of the case!"

Song Yan smiled, but he was not at all proud. To him, the case was nothing. Then he stood up and walked to the table where Xiao Yu and Huang Xian were sitting. He put away the ingot of silver with his hand and said, "Today It’s really a double happiness. I won five taels of silver after winning the case. Mr. Huang, thank you so much. You are a good person. By the way, Mr. Xiao also thanks you. If you hadn’t lent the silver to Mr. Huang, he wouldn’t have been with him. I bet!"

After saying this, Song Yan turned around and left, regardless of what Xiao Yu and Huang Xian's faces would look like.

The so-called head of the case is not as simple as the first name.

Because according to the rules, as long as the head of the case is in the examination of the children, then as long as the test answers are not too bad, the scholar will usually be a scholar. Therefore, the name of the head of the case will be so resounding.

"Xiao Lang, I didn't expect you to be the head of the case. Hey, your Song family is considered a proud ancestor!"

"Brother, you've said this ten times. Aren't you just the head of the case? I will also get the first place in the scholar examination!" Song Yan said without any politeness.

After knowing that he had won.

Song Yan and Chen Chong left the county town and headed for Songjia Village.

On the way, Chen Chong still hadn't come to his senses, his face was full of excitement.

It's like two o'clock in the afternoon.

Song Yan and Chen Chong returned to Chenjiacun together.

Chen Youniang was standing at the door looking up, as if waiting for Song Yan's return.

"Xiao Lang, did you win?"

As soon as she saw Song Yan, Chen Youniang asked with concern.

Before Song Yan could say anything, Chen Chong rushed to say: "If you are successful, you are still the head of the case. From now on, a scholar will not be able to escape from his fame!"

"Is it true? My young man is so awesome!"

Chen Youniang said with admiration on her face.

Song Yan turned to Chen Chong and said, "Brother, you go back and tell your father-in-law the news first. I'll freshen up a little and then go visit my father-in-law!"

"Okay, I'll go back and tell Dad the news!"

Chen Chong nodded and then sped towards the neighboring village.

When Chen Chong returned to Chen's house, his father-in-law Chen Dacheng was chopping firewood with his bare arms.

"Why are you kid back?"

Chen Dacheng said with some surprise.

"I asked the catcher to take a few days off!" Chen Chong said.

Suddenly, Chen Dacheng's eyes widened: "You bastard, I spent so much money to get you into the Yamen, and this time you actually skipped work for me for a few days!"

"No, Dad, I'm back with good news for you."

"Pick up the money!"

Chen Chong smiled and said: "It's better than picking up silver, Xiao Lang passed the Tongsheng test!"

"What?" Chen Dacheng was stunned: "That kid can also pass the Tongsheng test."

"Not only did he pass the exam, he was also the first in the case!" Chen Chong was even more proud.

Chen Dacheng laughed: "The head of the case! Haha! I am indeed wise. I knew this boy was promising, otherwise I would not marry my daughter to him!"

"By the way, Dad, Xiao Lang said that he will bring his young mother to visit you later!" Chen Chong said again.

Chen Dacheng glared at Chen Chong: "You bastard, why didn't you tell me earlier and ask your wife to clean up the house quickly? I'm a scholar. By the way, I'll clean it up too. I'm covered in sweat so I won't be inhaled. My good son-in-law, by the way, go and inform the people in the village that my son-in-law, Chen Dacheng, has passed the examination and is going to have a big banquet!"

Half an hour later.

Song Yan and Chen Youniang came to his father-in-law's house, but he did not expect that his father-in-law's house was full of people. He was confused for a moment as to why there were so many people.

Chen Dacheng, dressed in a rather festive red robe, came up to him: "Good son-in-law, you are here!"

"My son-in-law has met his father-in-law."

Song Yan quickly saluted, but there was no hint of hypocrisy.

"father!"

Chen Youniang also shouted.

"Haha, get up, get up, you are the head of the case, how can you salute me like a pig butcher!"

Chen Dacheng quickly helped Song Yan up.

"So what about the head of the case? He's not my father-in-law's son-in-law." Song Yan stood up and said with a smile.

Hearing Song Yan's words, Chen Dacheng was greatly relieved.

Immediately, he took him and introduced these people to him.

Everyone present was smiling, and everyone had to praise Song Yan a few words, but they kept the same words over and over again.

But Song Yan was not impatient and returned the favor one by one.

That night.

Chen Dacheng set up more than thirty tables at home and invited everyone in the village to have a feast.

That night.

Song Yan stayed at Chen Dacheng's house.

Before going to bed, he called up the system and looked at the luck column. He was surprised. Unexpectedly, passing a case in the exam directly increased his luck by eight points, making his luck reach It's thirteen o'clock.

The second day.

When Song Yan left, Chen Dacheng gave him ten taels of silver and two pieces of fat meat. Poor people like to eat fat meat because fat meat is rich in oil and water.

Song Yan didn't show any pretense and accepted it directly.

Unexpectedly, as soon as I returned home, someone came to visit me.

They were all from the village, and they all brought gifts to the door, but the news about Chen Dacheng's big banquet last night had spread to the village, and everyone knew that Song Yan had passed the Tongsheng examination and was the head of the case.

At first, some people didn't know what the head of the case represented. When the village chief told everyone that if they got the head of the case, the chance of being admitted as a scholar would be more than 90%, and everyone was shocked.

When almost everyone in the village came to visit Song Yan, the village chief came, and he brought a six or seven-year-old kid with him, who was his grandson Shitou.

The village chief not only gave gifts, but also gave Song Yan three taels of silver.

night.

Song Yan had dinner and walked to the yard. With a thought, he communicated with the system and asked him to suck a pile of sand into the system and turn it into glass.

It was just as he expected.

The sand and gravel sucked into the system turned to glass.

Since it can be turned into glass, then there is no problem in turning these glasses into glass crafts.

With his order, all the glass was transformed into glass handicrafts.

"very good!"

Looking at these more than ten glass handicrafts, Song Yan grinned. He didn't have to worry about money in the future.
