Chapter 363: Special Agent 358 has turned into a commoner (4) at the third update

He asked a few casual questions, and suddenly saw a middle-aged man reading an Eight-Legged Essay at the corner. His eyes narrowed slightly.

"Why is there an extra person?"

"Replying to the Butler, that is the tutor Aunt Mei found for the Fourth Young Master. The Fourth Young Master says he wants to take the Imperial Examination," Liuliu answered demurely with lowered eyes.

Upon hearing Liuliu’s words, the Butler’s smile seemed both amused and mocking, "Is that so? Then let the Fourth Master not disappoint Aunt Mei’s good intentions."

However, before leaving, the Butler took a look at the state of the manor, somewhat surprised.

He was aware of this manor; it was long since dilapidated, and lacking a land deed from the Ye Family, it had become an abandoned mansion.

How come it appeared somewhat new today?

Especially the dog that Liuliu fed.

The Butler always felt it looked familiar.

The curly-coated dog that had been a tribute from Persia a few days ago was said to cost a few thousand taels of silver. The Young Lady had always wanted to keep one but was unable to. Mainly because the Ye Family wouldn’t spend thousands of taels to buy a dog.

Thinking of this, the Butler withdrew his gaze; it probably wasn’t the tribute curly-coated dog.

How could the Fourth Young Master afford such an expensive dog when they were even struggling to eat?

What the Butler did not know was, after his departure.

Liuliu, who was originally very afraid of him, lifted her head, showing not the slightest trace of fear on her face.

"Old Wang, come here," Liuliu picked up Old Wang, "come on, sister will take you to find Aunt Mei."

Meanwhile, the Butler had returned to the Ye Residence.

"How did it go?" Lady Ye waved away the servants beside her and asked the Butler.

The Butler replied respectfully, "I didn’t see the Fourth Young Master; he went out with friends for a drink. However, Aunt Mei has found a scholar to teach the Fourth Young Master, preparing him for the Imperial Examination. But clearly, the Fourth Master does not like it; he doesn’t study seriously at all."

"That Aunt Mei still doesn’t give up," Lady Ye wasn’t annoyed, instead, she almost laughed, "Her son taking the Imperial Examination? What a daydream under the broad daylight."

Lady Ye was aware of Ye Shaohua’s character.

So, hearing that Aunt Mei found a tutor for Ye Shaohua didn’t concern her at all.

After listening to a few words, she dismissed the Butler.

Now, all her heart was set on her son.

Two years passed.

The triennial Rural Examination finally began.

"What? You’re really going to participate in the Rural Examination?" Aunt Mei, holding Old Wang, was shocked upon seeing Ye Shaohua and Liuliu, prepared to take part in the examination.

Over the past three years, Aunt Mei had watched Ye Shaohua leave the scholar hanging at the villa and go out alone, barely ever seeing her read anything.

However, Aunt Mei also knew that her daughter truly had abilities.

At first, she was worried about Ye Shaohua.

Yet knowing that time, Ye Shaohua casually jumped down from the roof and handed her a banknote for two hundred taels of silver, Aunt Mei knew Ye Shaohua had secrets she was unaware of.

Aunt Mei had light sleep these years.

Occasionally waking up at night, she would see several mysterious figures coming to meet Ye Shaohua.

She pretended not to notice.

But now, hearing that Ye Shaohua was indeed going to take the Rural Examination, she hesitated before speaking.

Ye Shaohua let Liuliu put the backpack on, and upon hearing Aunt Mei’s words, patted Aunt Mei’s shoulder. Although she was only fourteen years old, Aunt Mei was petite, and Ye Shaohua was already much taller than her.

"Aunt Mei, I’m off."

Aunt Mei looked at Ye Shaohua’s fair and jade-like face, and even though she was dressed in men’s clothes, she couldn’t hide her elegance.

She was already feeling regretful; if not for her, her daughter would be of marriageable age now.

"Mm, mother will wait for you," Aunt Mei patted her head and accompanied her to the street corner ahead.

The location of the Rural Examination was not far; less than an hour’s ride by horse-drawn carriage, lasting only three days.

Liuliu waited in the carriage, seeing the other examinees come out looking haggard and exhausted, she prepared a woolen cloak, ready to drape it over her young master when he came out.

However, when Ye Shaohua came out, Liuliu noticed that she didn’t look disheveled like the other examinees.

This puzzled Liuliu, but she still draped the woolen cloak over Ye Shaohua.

"Let’s not go back to see mother right away," Ye Shaohua peeked out from the inside, "let’s head to Changchun Building first."

Liuliu knew Changchun Building, the number one restaurant in the Imperial City, and it was said to have chain stores as well.

Even Liuliu knew the origin of this restaurant, which showed its reputation.

Seeing Ye Shaohua wanting to go there, Liuliu assumed she was just craving for it.

When they arrived at the entrance of the Changchun Building, Ye Shaohua didn’t get down, which made Liuliu curious.

"Fourth Young Master." The restaurant owner of Changchun Building was already waiting on the side. When Ye Shaohua arrived, he handed him a wooden box.

Ye Shaohua gestured to Liuliu with a nod of his chin to take it.

Liuliu took the box with full of doubts.

**

Half a month later, the results of the Rural Examination were finally announced.

Ye Shaoming, four years older than Ye Shaohua, was now eighteen. If it weren’t for his focus on studying for the exams, he would have been married by now.

Ye Qingweng in the Dali Temple sped up his handling of official duties.

Thinking that today was the day the results were released, he wanted to hurry back to see if Ye Shaoming had made the grade.

But as soon as he stepped out of the gate of Dali Temple.

He saw Official Li, who usually paid him little attention, approaching with a smile, "Lord Ye is indeed blessed, to have fathered such an extraordinarily talented son."

Official Li’s rank was higher than his own and he wasn’t part of his own faction.

But he was the Chief Examiner of this examination...

And now, he was taking the initiative to greet him, even complimenting him on having a talented son.

Instantly, Ye Qingweng thought of Ye Shaoming, especially since today were the exam results. Could it be that Shaoming had made it to the top three ranks?
