It was the eighth day of the eighth month in the Capital City. Crowds of scholars rushed to the examination grounds, creating an extraordinarily bustling scene. A carriage slowly came to a halt in an alley outside the examination venue.
"You enter the examination grounds today. I packed some pastries and clothes in here, so keep them safe. It has been raining a lot lately, and the night winds are cold. You must take good care of yourself while you are in there alone." Ye Chutang handed over the prepared box, instructing him carefully.
Ye Jingyan accepted it with both hands, unable to hold back a chuckle. "It is rare to hear you nag about such things, Chutang. I am not a child anymore. You do not need to worry about me so much."
