"Yes, yes!" Zhao Ping 'er replied excitedly.
Such a good thing should be publicized in the village.
In the past, her ugly appearance had been laughed at by the girls in the village. Now that she was out with this face, it was a slap to the faces of those who had laughed at her.
With her current appearance, she could definitely crush a large number of girls in the village.
At Old Zhao's house, the commotion was still ongoing.
It was no wonder that the villagers were so concerned about Zhao Tianlong. It was simply too rare for Zhao Tianlong to come in third place in the imperial examinations.
Since Shui Lan Village had produced such a talent, the villagers naturally wanted to join in the fun and understand the situation. At the same time, they wanted to build a good relationship with Old Zhao's family. When they went out later, they could even brag about it and gain some face.
After Zhao Yun 'er finished preparing the dishes, she began to entertain the officials who had delivered the news.
There was no doubt about her culinary skills. This meal was very sumptuous, and everyone was very satisfied.
When the officials were about to leave, Zhao Wentao reminded Zhao Baoshan and Zhao Wenshi.
"Father, Second Brother, they came all the way to our house to deliver the news. We can't just entertain them with a meal. We have to give them some red packets."
Previously, when people from other villages passed the imperial examinations, the officials who delivered the news had to give them five taels of silver. This time, Zhao Tianlong came in third place. Old Zhao's family couldn't be too shabby. Not only would it embarrass Old Zhao's family, it would also embarrass Zhao Tianlong.
Zhao Baoshan nodded, "Yes, Fourth Brother is right. We should give them some red packets.
Eldest Brother, take out whatever money you have! "
Zhao Wenshi couldn't bear to part with his money, so he said with a bitter face, "Father, where do I have any money? Tianhu basically spent all his money when he got married. Also, he split up, so he doesn't have much left … "
Zhao Wenshi didn't really have any money. He just didn't want to take it out.
He knew that even if he didn't pay, it would be the entire Old Zhao family's honor for Zhao Tianlong to come in third place. Zhao Baoshan would find a way to raise the money.
At that time, how much money did his little sister bring from Young Master Meng? She could casually take out more money than he could. Why would she touch his little treasury?
After Zhao Baoshan heard this, he frowned and thought for a moment. Just as he was about to ask Huo Chunhua to take out some money, Shen Pan 'er walked over and said to Zhao Wenshi and Zhao Baoshan, "Dad, Grandpa, let me take the money. You don't have to make things difficult for me! I don't have any dowry from my maiden family! "
When Zhao Wenshi heard this, he immediately gave Shen Pan 'er a look, telling her not to take it.
Shen Pan 'er was a member of the main branch, so Zhao Wenshi's heart ached when she took out the money.
Shen Pan'er ignored the look in Zhao Wenshi's eyes.
She was a little annoyed by the pettiness of the country people.
Wasn't it just some money? What was the big deal?
Now that Zhao Tianlong came in third place, he was going to be a high-ranking official in the future. How could he worry about not having enough money to spend?
Giving more money to the officials who delivered the news was to give Zhao Tianlong some face. She couldn't let others think that Zhao Tianlong's family was too shabby and make a joke out of it.
As Zhao Tianlong's wife, Shen Pan 'er took this into consideration and took out the money.
