Wang Youheng brought materials for exam preparation, including past exam papers and booklets of the current Lord Magistrate of Jinyang County, the topics he had proposed in the past, his poetry and essays collection, and even some "insider predictions" regarding potential exam topics.
Wu Yugui and Wu Jiaxing, the father and son, also used their connections at the County Yamen to help gather a lot of information.
Not only did Wang Youheng and Wu Lang carefully go through these materials, but Mr. Loo also reviewed them, and later provided an in-depth analysis for the two students.
Lian Manman sat in the outer room, listening intently, deeply impressed by Mr. Loo's profound and experienced insights.
The three households all invited Wu Lang to stay, but Wu Lang declined each one. He had already agreed with three classmates to travel together to rent accommodation in the county town for the exam.
