Yang Ruqing and Sun Shi were both secretly and actively preparing for Dayan's birthday in two days.

Because Dā'ān had finished celebrating his birthday, he was about to set off for Bái Lù Academy in Qìng'ān County to continue his studies.

Bai Lu Academy is the best academy in all of Qing'an County.

Those who could attend the Keian Academy for study, were divided into two categories. One category was like Da'an, exceptionally talented and outstanding students.

There is also another category, which are the young masters from aristocratic families who go through the green channel.

And Da'an, who came from a peasant family, relied entirely on his own ability. He was noticed by the magistrate of Qingshan County and arranged to go to Bailu Academy.

It is obvious that Dain has gained the favor of the county magistrate and will be cultivated as a key person.

At first, Mu Zi Chuan didn't have this kind of treatment.

After returning home, Datian told Yang Ruqing, Luofeng Tang, and Yang Huazhong and Sun Shi about this matter, seeking their opinions.

Yang Ruqing thought it was feasible, and moreover, this opportunity was rare.

Even with connections like Prince Chen and Zhang University Scholar on his side, Da An will need to leverage the network of people Yang Ruoqing has if he wants to succeed in the officialdom.

He, too, needs to expand his own network of contacts.

Only a well-connected network of relationships can give him the strength to keep going.

So by the time I return from studying at Bai Lu Academy in Qing'an County, it should be winter break for the academy.

I reckon it will be almost two months before I can go home after the 15th day of the 12th lunar month.

From a young age, I only did it briefly for my first birthday and haven't done it again.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

So this fifteenth birthday, Sun Shi and Yang Ruqing planned to celebrate it well.

At the height of Sun and Yang Ruoqing's preparations, when Ah Hao brought back his uncle, Lao Jue Shu, Yang Huazhong and Luo Tiejiang warmly received him. ——

Little Hua was also secretly preparing.

After pulling three or five all-nighters, Xiaohua finally finished her wish.

Here is the translation of the content within the tags, excluding the HTML tags themselves:>

Tomorrow is Da An's birthday. Please let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

Tonight, Xiaohua, like always, after dinner, followed Dangan's regular schedule and went to the kitchen for a bowl of soothing soup that helped with sleep. She then knocked on Dangan's door.

"The door isn't locked, come on in."

Before he even knocked twice, a warm and gentle voice came from inside the room.

XiaoHua then pushed open the door and entered the room, turning back to gently close it behind her.

"Big Brother Da'an, Third Sister-in-law told you to drink this calming tea and rest early." Xiaohua brought the tea to the desk and said softly.

She had to be quiet and still because she had heard that studying was the most tiring thing for your brain.

Unlike them, who do heavy manual labor, it's simple and doesn't require much thinking.

Dayan's gaze remained fixed on the page in his hand. Upon hearing this, there was no change in his expression.

He merely let out a light "hmm," but didn't immediately put down his book.

Xiaohua didn't dare to urge a second time. She held the soup and took two steps back, standing quietly on the side, holding her breath.

Night, very quiet.

>

Occasionally, one could hear a few barks from dogs in the distant villages.

Perhaps there were still a few snores from Yang Huazhong coming from the opposite house.

But in this room, apart from the rustling sound of turning pages, there was nothing else.

Xiao Hua dared not even breathe loudly.

From her perspective, she saw Dān'ān sitting there.

After a bath, his half-dry ink hair was scattered behind him.

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

The white house robe looked great on him.

Xiaohua stared blankly at Dangan who was sitting upright and reading a book with utmost concentration. She couldn't help but think to herself,

This God, really isn't fair.

To give a person such a complete family, brothers and sisters,

He was given a brain that was countless times smarter than an ordinary person's.

He was given luck, opportunity, and an ambitious heart.

Even, he was given a face that was impeccably handsome, without a single flaw!

These five senses, this appearance, are truly handsome to the point that even a girl like Xiaohua would be jealous!

From the first day I came to this house, the moment I saw him, I was amazed.

Over the past few years, I've watched him grow from a young boy into a charming young man.

Xiaohua had a kind of indescribable sense of pride.

Over there, Dayan didn't know when he put down his books.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like translated!

He leaned back against the chair behind him, and in the same motion, he lightly patted his slightly aching shoulders.

>

Suddenly, he realized something and turned his head to look this way.

In the shadows where candlelight did not reach, a girl stood quietly, a tray still in her hand.

She was so still... as if she were about to merge with the shadows. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like translated!

But in the darkness, Da'an could clearly feel a burning gaze fixed upon him.

Here is the translation:

"You little brat, I thought you had left. Why don't you say anything just standing there?"

During the reign of Emperor Danding, the shadowy figure on this side smiled faintly and inquired gently.

Xiao Hua came to her senses, slightly lowering her eyebrows and whispering, “I saw that Big An brother was concentrating on reading, so I didn’t dare to disturb you.”

"Hmm." Dā'ān nodded lightly.

This girl, she's sensible.

He stood up. At fifteen, he inherited the tall and slender build that was characteristic of all the men in Lao Yang's family. Please note that without context, it's impossible to know what the original meaning of "<<<<< >>>>>" was. I've simply removed the content within those tags and left the HTML structure intact as you requested.

Because she was relatively slender, she appeared even more graceful.

An ordinary white cotton robe hung on him, exuding an indescribable air of elegance and grace.

He said to Xiaohua, "Come here."

Please note that the original content was empty. I have only translated the tags.

Xiaohua was startled, her heart beating faster for no reason.

She lightly bit her lip, holding a tray and walking out from the shadows. She came to the desk and stood before An.

Although he was only three years older than her, in his presence she felt like a little bird, while he seemed like a towering tree.

Her head sank even lower.

Da An did not look at her lowered head, nor the cheeks that had turned red and were hidden by the stray strands of hair.

His attention was on the bowl of soothing soup on the tray.

This An Shen Tang was bought back by my elder sister at a high price.

Sister felt sorry for his hard study, he often stayed up late at night, so those best tonic things, sister herself couldn't bear to eat, but she would spare no expense to give them to him.

He wouldn't let down his sister's good intentions.

So, even though he didn't usually drink soup at night, he would still obediently drink a bowl before going to sleep.

That way, when elder sister and mother asked the next day, they would be happy.

He likes to make them happy.

Long, slender fingers gently lifted the soup bowl from the tray and brought it to the lips, which curved in a perfect arc. A delicate sip was taken...

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Xiaohua suddenly thought of something and abruptly raised her head.

"Big An, isn't the calming soup cold?" she asked anxiously.

"San Shu and Qing'er jie especially reminded me that the soothing tea can't be drunk after it cools down, or you'll get a stomachache. I'm going to heat some up for you..."

Xiaohua spoke, reaching out to take the bowl of soup from Dayan's hand.

"Tai'an chuckled and shook his head, raising his hand slightly so Xiao Hua couldn't reach the bowl anymore."

His overwhelming height, so awkward, Xiaohua had a head full of black lines.
