Zhao Ruyu knew that even if she bought the beauty pills, if she wanted to attend banquets and get in touch with powerful families, she would still have to rely on the connections in the women's academy. Earning points was important, and she couldn't give up on the academy.

Seeing that she was back to normal, Zhao Jingan and Fu Shu breathed a sigh of relief.

But because of this, Zhao Ruyu's speed of earning points has slowed down a lot.

Zhao Ruyu was multitasking, but she still had Zhao Ruxi in mind.

She was counting the days and asked Zhao Jingli: "Brother, has Fifth Sister finished her exam?"

Zhao Jingli nodded: "I just finished the last exam yesterday."

"Then let's go see Fifth Sister and express our condolences to her," Zhao Ruyu said hurriedly.

Zhao Jingli looked at her suspiciously and said, "She must be very tired these days. Let's talk about it in a few days."

Zhao Ruyu had no choice but to be patient.

Two days later, Zhao Ruyu followed Zhao Jingli and Zhao Jing'an to the main room.

The three of them met Su, Zhao Jingning and Zhao Rushan at the gate.

"Third Aunt." The three of them saluted Mrs. Su.

Mrs. Su nodded: "You also come to pay your respects to grandma?"

Su knew that without Zhu's help, the matter would not have been concealed so easily. She had caused a lot of trouble for Zhu in the past, but at the critical moment, Zhu still extended a helping hand to her.

Very grateful.

Furthermore, if they, who are orphans and widowed, do not have a good relationship with the big house and cannot live dependent on the big house, someone may try to take advantage of them soon.

Therefore, after the first seven days of Zhao Yuankun's death, Mrs. Su took a pair of children to Suiping's house to pay homage to the old lady and Mr. Zhu on the pretext of paying respects to the old lady.

"Yes. By the way, I want to visit my fifth sister. It was very hard for her to take the provincial examination." Zhao Jingli said.

"That's not true..." Su Shi said.

The two people went to the old lady's house together to pay her respects.

The old lady was usually impatient to deal with them. After saying a few words, she served tea to see the guests off. Mrs. Su took her children to Mr. Zhu's place, while the second room and three others went to Mr. Zhao Ruxi's place.

"Fifth sister, how did you do in the exam?" Zhao Jingan asked as soon as he entered.

After receiving the report from the maid, Zhao Ruxi knew that the three of them and Mrs. Su had come to pay their respects to the old lady, so she had already changed her clothes and waited for them.

As soon as she heard that Zhao Ruyu was here, she knew what Zhao Ruyu was here for.

Zhao Ruyu has always been impatient. If she hadn't been taking the provincial examination in the past few days, Zhao Ruyu would have come here to inquire about the system.

She put down the newspaper she was holding, made a "please sit down" gesture to the three of them, stood there and said with a smile: "I don't know yet, I'm waiting for the results to be released."

Saying this, she is quite confident about the provincial examination.

The intensive training given by the gentlemen of the Imperial College some time ago was not in vain. She felt that her articles had made great progress, whether in terms of diction or other aspects.

She also read the top ten articles in the provincial examination over the years, and she believed that her own articles were no worse than theirs. But where she ranked in the end depended on luck and the preferences of the marking officer.

"Can you pass?" Zhao Jingli asked.

The ancients liked to be modest, and the flag could not be set randomly. So Zhao Ruxi said vaguely: "I hope so."

Zhao Jingan asked about the questions in the provincial examination. When he heard that some questions were mixed with arithmetic and legal knowledge, he immediately grimaced: "This is too difficult."

They were chatting about the imperial examination questions, and Zhao Ruyu stood nearby and couldn't get in the conversation. She asked the system in her mind: "System, does Zhao Ruxi have a system?"

She didn't know that the system could pry for information. Not to mention Zhao Ruyu, even her system didn't expect that she could earn points like this.

That's Zhao Ruxi. Faced with a system that wants to earn points from her all day long, she doesn't suffer at all and always wants to squeeze it back, so she developed this function.

System problems are a minefield, and Zhao Ruyu’s system naturally answers her questions. It simply ignores her.

Zhao Ruyu didn't get the answer, but she didn't care. She just asked casually.

She just felt that she and Zhao Ruxi were sitting face to face. If Zhao Ruxi had a system, then the two systems would be in such close contact, just like meeting relatives, and there must be some reaction. So she asked.

Seeing that the system was silent, she guessed that Zhao Ruxi had no system.

When she saw the newspaper placed in front of Zhao Ruxi, she rolled her eyes, stood up, pointed at the newspaper and asked Zhao Ruxi: "Fifth sister, can I read it?"

Zhao Ruxi was discussing with Zhao Jingan how to write a provincial examination question. When Zhao Ruyu asked about the newspaper, he nodded.

Zhao Ruyu took the newspaper and read it for a while. During a break in the discussion between Zhao Jing'an and Zhao Ruxi, two words suddenly came out of his mouth: "System."

Her voice was neither loud nor soft, but her words were very clear. She stared at the newspaper, as if she was talking to herself or reading the contents of the newspaper, but she glanced at Zhao Ruxi from the corner of her eye.

Zhao Ruxi was well prepared and seemed to be talking to Zhao Jing'an, but in fact, his attention was always on Zhao Ruyu.

When she heard Zhao Ruyu's words, she looked over subconsciously, her eyes full of confusion, as if she was asking what Zhao Ruyu was talking about?

The same is true for Zhao Jingli.

Only Zhao Jingan was thinking about the topic Zhao Ruxi said and did not hear Zhao Ruyu's words.

Zhao Ruyu seemed to feel the gazes of the two people. She put down the newspaper and smiled sheepishly: "I was obsessed with reading the newspaper, so I'm disturbing you."

Zhao Ruxi waved her hand indifferently, turned around and asked Zhao Jing'an: "How is it? How to solve this problem?"

Seeing Zhao Jing'an scratching his head and scratching his head, with a depressed look on his face, Zhao Jingli said: "Second brother, you are still not familiar enough with the Four Books and Five Classics. If you can't even think of the source and can't solve the problem, you won't be able to write the article at all, and you will have to hand in a blank paper.

.So I have to work harder when I go back."

"Yes, I understand." Zhao Jingan said with his head down.

After failing the Tongsheng test, he has been working hard. He thought that he had studied hard in the past six months and had a good grasp of the Four Books and Five Classics. But now he can't even solve the problems, which makes him very frustrated.

Seeing Zhao Ruxi's reaction, Zhao Ruyu guessed that Zhao Ruxi had no system. Otherwise, she would never have this reaction when she heard the word "system".

Thinking of this, she felt secretly happy.

She doesn't know what a golden finger is, but that doesn't stop her from hoping that she is the only one with a golden finger. In this way, she can be better than others and be more likely to succeed.

Zhao Jingli knew that participating in the provincial examination was very tiring and physically demanding. When he saw Zhao Jing'an wilting, he knew the effect was achieved and was unwilling to disturb Zhao Ruxi any more.

He stood up and said goodbye.

Zhao Ruyu followed her two brothers and turned around, slowly going down the steps, hoping that Zhao Ruxi would stop her and ask about the system.

If Zhao Ruxi had a system, she would definitely ask. After all, she had already started it, so Zhao Ruxi naturally had to ask her if she also had a system.
