The oath Xu Daguo made back then caused a wave of waves in the village.
Later, he, Li Yuan, Li Fang and others went to the county for the scientific examination. Except for Li Fang, who passed the examination, all the others came back disappointed. So far, Xu Daguo has never taken the scientific examination again. He himself is also very low-key, so everyone has forgotten this.
Things.
Now that the oath was repeated by Qingshan Niang again, Xu Daguo blushed with shame, but Geng felt particularly ironic after hearing this.
Finally, Li Nan said "Ah——" and everyone looked at him.
"Guozi, during the scientific examination, you and Li Yuan lived in the same house, and Li Yuan had diarrhea at night. Does this have anything to do with you?"
"What?"
"Are you sure?"
"Li Nan can't talk nonsense? Is it true? When?"
"..."
Once an old story was exposed, everyone was talking about their speculations. Seeing that a big drama was about to unfold, Cheng Xue stood outside the crowd and listened quietly.
It's not that she has a villain's heart and judges a gentleman's heart. Xu Daguo treated his wife like this. Then for the sake of ranking, he may not have been able to do what Yu Cheng did to Zhou Fei.
Just when everyone was talking more and more fiercely——
"Li Nan, you are so shameless! If you hadn't taken out walnuts for everyone to eat that day, and your brother had brought herbal tea for everyone to drink, how could Brother Li Yuan have diarrhea? I, Xu Daguo, have been studying for many years and I cannot do such despicable things. If I really participated, would Brother Li Yuan sell me a share of his property deed? Back then, Li Fang was so poor in knowledge, and I was obviously better than him, so why did he pass the scholar examination and we all failed?"
"Ha - if my brother is bad at studying, aren't you bad at it? It's not you who is sleeping in the school while studying?"
"Even if I sleep, I can study better than your brother. During the scientific examination, your brother and Li Yuan were next to each other, and Li Yuan went to the court room several times."
"What do you want to say?" Li Nan looked at him jokingly, "Xu Daguo, are you going to say that the yamen in the Gongyuan got through to my brother and exchanged his and Li Yuan's papers. Are you sure? If you are sure, let's go.
Report to the official, go now."
Faced with Li Nan's aggressive approach, how could Xu Daguo dare to say "sure"?
Cheng Xue wanted to watch for a while, but suddenly someone grabbed her neck from behind and took a few steps backward. Without asking, she knew it was Li Hui. This kid is getting bolder and bolder now.
After adjusting her walking posture, Cheng Xue looked back at the crowd that had not dispersed and asked in a low voice:
"Do you think what Li Nan said is credible?"
"What do you think?" Li Hui chuckled and asked, "If Li Fang doesn't break off his hand, he won't be able to bribe the officials. I know that there are special people in the Gongyuan who go to the Gongfang to watch, so it is impossible for him to change the test papers."
p>
Okay, that means she is overthinking.
On the way home, the three of them saw Jiang Jianye coming here in a hurry. Li Hui shook his head sympathetically, while Jiang Jianye patted his shoulder with tears in his eyes and sighed.
There are a lot of quarrels like this in the village every year, but this year there are a lot more. Not only are there quarrels, but families are also separated. Now in the next year, he has stepped in to help separate not one but two families. It is really costing his life.
After returning home, Cheng Xue took a knife and went to the backyard to cut leeks. Looking at the big ox that screamed "Moo...", she walked over and gave it a tank of water. This year's spring plowing depends on it.
When picking leeks, Yan Yixin moved a bench to help. Li Yue and Li Heng also came out, and the four of them worked very quickly.
Outside the hospital, the sound of bustling footsteps could be heard. It took a little longer to calm down the conflict this time, and it seems that it will become more and more difficult in the future.
When Xu Geng returned home, he stood on a stool, scratched the courtyard wall, and said:
"Tiedan Niang, the leeks are ready!"
"Yes, Auntie, are you going to eat the leek box later?"
"No, I made the steamed dumplings stuffed with shepherd's purse when I got up early. I'll heat them up just enough. You didn't notice, but there was a huge fire just now that I calmed down. Tsk, tsk, tsk... It's really getting more and more alive!
”
Mr. Geng was chatting more energetically and enthusiastically than usual. Just when Cheng Xue felt that something was going wrong and there must be a monster, the sound of Xu Daguo slamming the door was heard.
Come on, the relationship between this old couple is probably going to last forever.
After the first pot of leeks was cooked, Cheng Xue picked out six of them on a plate and asked Li Heng to deliver them to Zhou Fei.
"Don't run away on the road, be careful, and come back as soon as you finish delivering. The family is ready for dinner."
"Don't worry, mother, I'm not a child."
After Li Heng finished speaking, he took the plate and ran away. Because Liaohuang was trapped in the house for a day and it really suffocated him to death.
Cheng Xue continued to bake the leek box, looked at Li Yue who was doing the work next to her, and suddenly remembered:
"By the way, Tangtang, your Aunt Zhou can play the piano, do you want to learn?"
When I went to deliver steamed buns that day, Lian took the initiative to bring it up. She was kind-hearted and felt that Li Hui would have a bright future in the future. As his daughter, she was not only proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, but she still had to know a few things.
Cheng Xue didn't care about it, but if the child liked it, that would be a different matter. Looking at the little girl's shining eyes, she smiled.
"Okay, you can study if you like. When your Uncle Xiao comes home, ask him to help bring a piano back from the county. Practice on weekdays and save yourself time."
"No...thank you, mother, I will study hard."
"Silly. Tell your brother to stop writing. Let's get ready for dinner."
Li Yue said "OK" and went out, and came to the next door to see Yan Yixin sitting there with empty eyes and motionless.
"Brother, what's wrong with you?"
Yan Yixin didn't move after seeing the person clearly, and it took a while before he spoke:
"Tangtang, if my uncle asked you to forgive Li Wanshan's mother and let you learn female sex with her, would you be willing?"
"Who? Li Wanshan's mother?"
Seeing him nod, Li Yue hurriedly waved his hand.
"Don't make trouble, bro. She's a pretty good actress, but she's nowhere near as good as my mother. Why should I learn from her?"
"No, I mean... forget it, just pretend I didn't say it. Do you want to eat? Let's go and set the table."
The topic changed very abruptly, and Li Yue couldn't keep up with the speed for a while. But he didn't care, since it was definitely impossible to follow the Qin family to become a female celebrity.
When the last pot of leeks came out of the box, Yu Zhao also came back from work. While washing his hands, he said that the forest farm would be in charge of dinner starting tomorrow.
"...There are too few people and not much work, so we will end work at 3:00 tomorrow."
"So late? Can you see me?" Cheng Xue pursed her lips tightly.
Yu Zhao shrugged upon hearing this, wiped his face helplessly, and said:
"Light a lantern when you can't see. Now Brother Dong Cheng and the others are overloaded with work. They will have to farm sooner or later in the future. I'm afraid they won't be able to bear it."
Not to mention the laborers at the forest farm, even he himself is worried about whether his body can bear the burden. Now he not only has to keep accounts, but also has to cut trees with him. Even the big shopkeeper and the second shopkeeper are doing the same. They are so overloaded with work that they are always tired.
I feel unsure.
Cheng Xue glanced at Li Hui, who nodded in understanding and said:
"I will go to the forest farm to look for him after school tomorrow and give him a heads up."
As long as nothing happens, everything will be fine. Once someone dies, it’s no joke. Yu Zhao was really hungry and ate four boxes in a row before slowing down...
