Chapter 467 He's like a star walking on the red carpet
After two days and one night of travel, Sun Shan and his party finally arrived in Huangyang County in the evening.
Sun Shan was stunned. Why did he feel that the city gate of Huangyang County had become different? Although it was still very shabby, it was very clean. Moreover, the words "Huangyang" had obviously been repainted. It should have been repaired not long ago.
The boy pointed at a banner outside the city gate and shouted anxiously, "Uncle Shan, look, that's your name."
Sun Shan followed the direction pointed by the boy's finger in confusion and saw a large vertical banner with the words "Sun Shan" written on it.
Sun Shan Mantou was puzzled, what happened? Why was his name on the flag?
Gui Ge'er slowed down his pace and then saw many flags erected on both sides of the city gate. On them were not only the words "Sun Shan" but also "Juren", "Congratulations" and so on.
The corners of Sun Shan's mouth twitched. This was a large-scale "social death" scene.
Apparently, Huangyang County made the "Sun Shan success in the imperial examination" incident into a trademark for a major internal publicity campaign.
He Shuyu held his stomach and laughed loudly: "Shanzi, you are so impressive as a juren. Your name is known throughout the county. Hahaha, you are more impressive than my elder brother. When my elder brother passed the jinshi exam, he just posted a congratulatory notice in Hejia Village. You are...hahaha."
When He Shuyu saw that Sun Shan’s face turned dark, he laughed even more wildly.
Sun Shan wanted to wear a veil like the women. He thought it would be better for him not to be seen in the light.
In contrast to Sun Shan was Sun Bomin, whose eyes were red at this moment, and he shouted excitedly: "Great, my Shanzi has made it, the whole county knows Shanzi. Great, I am so happy."
Gui Ge'er felt the same as Sun Bomin and said excitedly, "Brother Shan, the whole county knows that you have passed the imperial examination. Brother Shan, you are amazing."
Among the five people, only Xiaozai was the most normal. He looked around at every tree and blade of grass, and found everything new.
Little kids love to wander around and are very excited when they come to new places.
The group walked into the city gate with different thoughts and entered the city for inspection.
Zhu Biaotou shouted directly: "Mr. Sun Shan has returned home."
The officer who was supposed to check the goods didn't even bother checking them. Instead, he ran over and looked at Sun Shan like a monkey.
Sun Shan was so upset that he wanted to pull down the curtain of the carriage, but he knew he couldn't do that.
So he got off the carriage in a graceful manner, greeted the villagers one by one, with a professional smile on his face. Wearing a juren's hat and a big hat, he greeted passers-by while walking forward.
Sun Shan thought it would be better if there was a red carpet in front of him, so that he would be like a star walking on the red carpet.
The people of Huangyang County looked at Sun Shan's clothes and hat with curiosity.
Some people were bold and curious and asked, "Mr. Sun, you are back? I heard that you are the only juren in Zhangzhou Prefecture, is that right?"
This question is very difficult, Sun Shan should not give a straight answer.
He showed his eight teeth and smiled like a flight attendant, saying, "I am a humble man, but I am lucky to have passed the exam. Thank you for your concern."
When the man saw that Sun Shan was actually trying to talk to him, he shouted, "Mr. Sun, talk to me! Mr. Sun, talk to me!"
Sun Shan was sweating all over. What was going on? You got so excited when I talked to you, but you said I was impolite when I didn't talk to you.
Sun Shan felt that being a juren was very difficult.
After chatting with the elders and folks of Huangyang County for a few words, Sun Shan immediately got on the carriage, bowed and said, "Everyone, let's talk again when we have time."
After saying that, he immediately closed the door curtain.
Oh, I’m not used to being a juren for the first time. The folks are so enthusiastic that I have to pretend.
Sun Bomin saw the door curtain was drawn and said in dissatisfaction: "Shanzi, why are you drawing the door curtain? This is so rude. Others are still here."
Sun Boming was excited when he saw so many people talking around Sun Shan just now.
Surrounding Sun Shan is equivalent to surrounding him.
Sun Bomin wished that Sun Shan would stay a little longer so that he could talk to the fellow villagers.
Sun Shan knew Sun Bomin's little thoughts, but there was no way he could help him.
Sun Shan is not a social celebrity, he is a fat otaku and it is better for him to stay at home.
Gui Ge'er was driving the carriage in front and they soon arrived at the escort agency.
Sun Shan is now a celebrity and does not want to get off the carriage. He wants his second cousin He Shuyu to do the handover.
But after Zhu Biaotou announced his arrival, Zeng Dadongjia and Zeng Jiajun hurried out of their homes. Sun Shan had no choice but to get off the car and meet his relatives and friends one by one.
I originally planned to go back first and then make an appointment to meet, but now I am forced to "find a job" in advance.
Sun Shan greeted Zeng Dadongjia and Zeng Jiajun. Zeng Dadongjia patted Sun Shan on the shoulder and said "yes, yes, yes".
Then I went to chat with Sun Boming.
Sun Shan asked curiously, "Ah Jun, where are my fourth sister and Xia Tou?"
Zeng Jiajun looked at Sun Shan excitedly, looking left and right, up and down, front and back, making Sun Shan feel scared.
Zeng Jiajun suddenly said loudly: "Ashan, you are amazing. I have never met such an amazing person. Ashan, did you pass the imperial examination because you ate the magic grass?
Do you think it’s too late for me to eat the herbal jelly now?
If you're late, can your nephew eat the shrimp heads?
I went to the medical clinic in Huangyang County to ask, and the herbal remedies there were small and expensive. I didn't want to buy them when I saw them, and I felt they had no effect.
I plan to go to Guangzhou Prefecture to buy it when I have time.
Ah Shan, nephews are like their uncles. My requirements are not high. I just want you to pass the imperial examination like you did and come back to me."
Zeng Jiajun was very silly and naive, and his face was beaming as he spoke, as if the person who had passed the imperial examination in front of him was not Sun Shan, but Sun Shan's nephew Xia Tou, Zeng Jiajun's son.
Sun Shan looked at the sky. Although it was evening, it was still bright. It was not night yet. Why was Zeng Jiajun dreaming?
I don’t want to eat turnips for lunch anymore, and I’m having big head dreams.
Sun Shan took out his pretentious paper fan and slapped Zeng Jiajun on the head, saying bluntly: "Jun, even if you eat dragon meat, let alone the magical grass, you still have no hope of passing the imperial examination. As for my nephew, don't waste my shrimp head and give him random food."
I don’t know why Zeng Jiajun thinks that he passed the imperial examination by eating magic herbs?
There is still a small shrimp head. Now it is eating grass jelly. It is too much to supplement it, which is a sin.
Sun Shan secretly thought that after seeing his fourth sister Hanlu, he must remind her not to let Xiatou take supplements indiscriminately, otherwise Xiatou would be harmed by his father.
Zeng Jiajun was slapped down by Sun Shan with a paper fan. He felt aggrieved and wanted to say something in rebuttal.
But when he saw Sun Shan's "vicious" eyes, as sharp as a mountain, his body couldn't help but tremble.
So impressive! Could this be the difference between a scholar and a juren?
Zeng Jiajun shrank his head and dared not speak nonsense.
Sun Bomin and Zeng Dadongjia were chatting happily. When someone passed by, Zeng Dadongjia pulled Sun Shan and said, "This is the only Sun Juren in Huangyang County, the uncle of my grandson."
The eyes of the people passing by immediately sparkled, and they shouted excitedly: "This is the scholar from our Huangyang County. Oh, what an honor, what an honor."
The tool man Sun Shan immediately came online, transformed into a handsome gentleman who was "as handsome as jade and unparalleled in the world". He greeted passers-by with a smile and a nod.
In the end, it was Xiaozai who saved Sun Shan.
The children were getting impatient standing there and were clamoring to go home.
Sun Shan quickly found an excuse to go back to "Sun's House" first.
Zeng Dadong hurriedly shouted, "Shanzi, come over for dinner later. It's already been arranged. Xiatou, his mother, and his grandmother have gone to buy groceries. You will be able to meet them later."
Sun Shan quickly agreed, and Zeng Jiajun followed Sun Boming and his group back to "Sun's House", carrying large and small bags.
