The only thing to say is that the Yao Family's youngest son was unexpectedly calm and composed. In some ways, Yao Zibao's confidence in his own talents could match Yao Ye's narcissism about his appearance.
That said, the Yao Family certainly wouldn't interfere with the exam procedures, but they definitely cared about their children and grandchildren's results. Grandma Yao often told her old man that maybe Yao Zibao would achieve something greater than Yao Ye. Grandma Yao said this not to belittle the eldest grandson and support the younger one, but as a subtle hint to her old man that the one Yao Zibao would marry should be considered more important than with Yao Ye.
For a man with career ambitions, whether his wife is suitable is not something to be taken lightly. The Yao Family may not be picky about many things, but the character of a Yao Family daughter-in-law and her loyalty to her husband are unbreakable iron rules highly valued by the Yao Family.
