Most of the conversation at the dining table was about guessing the exam questions.

Xie Yu did not talk much throughout the whole process and was eating seriously.

Du Heng was the same as him. However, Du Heng would always be called by Dean Zhang to ask about the topic, so every time he ate, he would eat very little. He was afraid that when the dean asked him about it, he would have food in his mouth, which would be very embarrassing.

Chu Zhiwen and Chu Yonghua could not interrupt. After all, the others were a group of literate scholars.

Chu Yonghua felt helpless. He was also increasingly aware of the importance of studying.

As for Chu Zhiwen, this was the first time he felt these scholars being polite to him. It was all because of his son. His mood had been great. He ate the entire time. It was rare for him to not drink, afraid that he would lose his composure and lose face.

Seeing this, Chu Yonghua did not dare to drink too much.

However, he was always a little depressed, especially when he thought of his eldest son, Chu An, who had studied when he was young but eventually stopped studying because he did not pass the exam.

If the eldest son was a student today, he would be qualified to sit inside.

Although Chu An had taken the initiative to help entertain the male guests, once saw how the other students spoke with confidence, the bitterness, unwillingness, and self-doubt in Chu Yonghua’s heart grew stronger.

The meal was a feast for both the host and the guest.

After the meal, Dean Zhang was the first to leave. He had always been a strict person. The reason he was willing to come to the banquet today was because Chu Heng was a student that he valued. In the past, he would only attend banquets with the Xie family or the county magistrate’s family. He would never show up at other banquets.

Xie Yu and Du Heng did not leave immediately.

It was rare for Xie Yu to come out for a breather. These days, he had been studying at home every day. He also had some doubts and happened to look for Chu Heng to discuss them. Later, he would go to school with him.
