"Has the Young Master Xie's family received this news yet?" Ye Muyu had also received the New Year's gift sent by the Xie family, and she exchanged letters with Madam Xie, who rarely mentioned anything about Xie Yu's official position. However, from the very little that Madam Xie mentioned, Ye Muyu could tell that the other party didn't mind Xie Yu only holding an external position.
For most non-official wealthy families, becoming an official of the capital was something unattainable, unless one became the top scholar or the like.
Xie Yu passing the imperial examination was already very satisfying for the Xie family.
"They know; he has already discussed it with the elders in his family," Chu Heng nodded.
Ye Muyu patted her head: "No wonder, this year's New Year's gift from the Xie family was exceptionally generous. I was even thinking that the return gift wasn't enough and wanted Mother and the others to add something more from back home."
