Huang Dong stood at the school gate, looking at the people around her who were taking the exam like her.

This exam is a social exam, not an entrance exam, so there are candidates of all ages, and most of them seem to be adults.

There was a group of people who looked like students nearby. Huang Dong observed and found that they were probably students studying this major in a vocational school.

Looking at their youthful and reckless confidence, Huang Dong couldn't help but think of his own few student years.

God knows, although she only graduated from junior high school, she is a good student. She walks ten miles to school before six o'clock in the day, eats flatbread and boiled water for lunch, and walks home again at night. It is basically impossible for her to do her homework, as her mother always needs her help with a lot of work.

Feeding pigs, cleaning, washing, cooking, looking after her younger brother and younger sister, when it comes to doing homework, her mother complains that she doesn't do it early, "You work so hard, why are you pretending to be diligent? Save some electricity money!"

Just like that, after graduating from junior high school, Huang Dong naturally stopped studying and was taken out by his sister-in-law from the neighboring village to work, and he did this for more than ten years.

I wonder if my mother thinks my brother is wasting electricity by studying at night? I don't think so. My sister and I together send more than 10,000 yuan home every month.

The bell for entering the venue rang. Huang Dong came to her senses and turned to look at Fu Dahai, who was smiling and waving at her.

Huang Dong calmed himself down, held his head high and walked into the examination room with determination.

Lu Qing is going to attend the engagement party of a child of a family friend with Ming Sicun today. Fu Dahai is not there, so Lu Qing will ride in Ming Sicun's Bentley.

"My mother and I are having an engagement dinner outside at noon. Do you have any plans for the morning?" Lu Qing asked Fu Yanheng.

"I'm not going to do anything or go anywhere today. I'm exhausted this week and I'm going to sleep until the end of time."

"Ask about Dad's schedule later. If not, you can play golf with him or practice Tai Chi. Also, a health doctor is coming to do gas-relieving exercises for Lening today. You can go over and take a look. Don't let it seem like we're neglecting our child."

"Okay, Mr. Lin, don't worry. I promise to complete the task! You are the kind of person who is born to be an official. You have to arrange work for me before you leave!"

"Nonsense, in our family, except for Dad who can arrange work for you, aren't the rest of us begging you for help? See if you can give me some face?"

"Oh, oh, oh, you don't even believe that. I'm a general manager, so why can't I be overbearing in front of you?"

"Don't think about it. Such a profound question will burn your CPU. I'm leaving!"

Fu Yanheng didn't even raise his head, but just stretched out a hand from under the summer quilt and waved goodbye to Lu Qing.

Lu Qing got ready early and waited in front of the main building for her mother-in-law to go out together. After waiting for a long time, Ming Sicun finally arrived.

"Mom, I've never seen the clothes you're wearing today. They're so special."

"Does it look good?" Ming Sicun turned 360 degrees.

What she wore today was a Chinese-style Beijing-style cheongsam with wide sleeves and a pattern of Wang Xizhi's Lanting Preface.

Lu Qing knew that Mingsi loved to flaunt her scholarly family background when she was out in public, so this kind of dressing was more in line with her personality.

"It looks good, and it's very cultured and full of temperament. Mom is really good at choosing clothes!"

Ming Sicun was very happy to be praised, "Hey! I just picked it randomly. If you like it, I will ask the master to make one for you so that we can wear the same one."

Lu Qing couldn't bear to think about how beautiful the two of them would look wearing 'mother-daughter outfits'. "Mom, this kind of cultural heritage is not something that ordinary people can wear. I don't think I can carry it off. Do you have any other patterns?"

"Yes, yes. There's also the Qingming Shanghe Tu. You'll look good in that, too!"

"Ah, Along the River During the Qingming Festival? Okay, I'll go check it out some other day. Is it the one on Oasis Road?"

"Yes, just go find Master Li. He will do a good job knowing that she is my daughter-in-law."

The car drove over and the two got in. Ming Sicun saw that Lu Qing was dressed neatly and didn't look like a mother of a child at all.

Lu Qing was wearing a royal blue linen shirt and white trousers, and the only decoration was a diamond bracelet.

"Lu Qing, why don't you wear all those nice jewels? The diamonds on your outfit today are not bad, but there are too few of them and they are not noticeable."

Lu Qing deliberately didn't want to steal the limelight from Ming Sicun and the host family. Today, her mother-in-law was dressed up carefully.

Her hair was tied up with pearl accessories on her temples; the base color of her cheongsam was white, and she was wearing a jade necklace; earrings of the same color should be a set; on her left hand she wore a custom-made diamond watch, on her right hand she wore a gold and jade bracelet, she wore her wedding ring every day, and on her left ring finger she wore an emerald; when Lu Qing took a closer look, she discovered that all of her handbags were custom-made and were adorned with hand-inlaid gems.

"The most beautiful woman in the world is you, mom. Oh, it's so beautiful. I just noticed that it's all designed and matched. It's amazing! It's beautiful, grand and beautiful!"

Ming Sicun smiled and stroked his necklace with his hand, "Luqing, since you gave birth to Le Ning, I found that you have become more mature and your aesthetic taste has improved a lot. After all, you are a mother now."

Lu Qing quickly thanked her mother-in-law for the compliment.

"My father specifically asked me to attend the engagement party with you today, but I haven't heard that our family has any dealings with the Jiang family before."

Ming Sicun was in a good mood and began to introduce Lu Qing, "The Jiang family used to be headed by the old man. The old man lived a long life and passed away last year. I think it was around Christmas. He was 90 years old when he passed away."

"That's a really long life. Is your body capable of running the family business at such an old age?"

"When he was young, this old man played basketball, volleyball, and table tennis. He was in good health. If he hadn't married a concubine and made his family angry, he might have lived to be a hundred."

Lu Qing's eyes widened. "Marrying a concubine at the age of ninety? Why bother?"

"Who knows? Men! Some men think about that all day long, they think about young girls. It's not uncommon. Didn't a famous painter marry a woman in her forties a few days ago? Hey, do you still have his paintings?"

"Mom, you have a really good memory. They gave me this. It wasn't a painting, it was words. How ironic! I remember it was Su Dongpo's Jiang Cheng Zi."

"Ten years of separation between life and death? How many men can live without looking for another wife ten years after her death? Even Su Dongpo had a new wife at that time."

Lu Qing also sighed, "Since ancient times, there have been many widows who have remained faithful to their husbands, and few widowers who have not remarried. Mom, go on, what happened next?"

"Isn't it? The old man wants to marry a young woman in her thirties. His son and daughter-in-law are almost mad to death. This so-called stepmother is much younger than them. Isn't it that the whole family comes to work every day, and they don't agree. The old man is old, and he had a cerebral hemorrhage in anger."

Ming Sicun leaned close to Lu Qing's ear and whispered, "People said it was a cerebral hemorrhage, but in fact it was just a stroke."
