I became the villain's deceased wife

As the weather warms up, the chili cooperative jointly founded by Song Tian and Zuixianlou has a bumper harvest.

Spicy delicacies have already opened up the market in Beijing, and the chili peppers in Fenglin County are in short supply.

The farmers who joined the chili cooperative in the first season made a lot of money, which made the surrounding villages and towns jealous.

But in the second half of the year, there will be threshold requirements for joining the company.

Not only has the price of seeds and land doubled, but 20% of the revenue has to be given to the organizer.

That is Song Tian and Zuixianlou.

Even so, it can't stop everyone's enthusiasm for growing peppers.

Song Tian thought that in order to prevent a sudden overcapacity, the threshold for joining the company would have to continue to be raised next year!

then.

While selling peppers, he also creates new dishes.

While selling seeds and collecting rent.

In addition, under Xie Bosheng's management, the Xie family's business quickly turned from loss to profit.

Song Tian quickly made a fortune and became a real rich woman.

Uncle Tieshan suggested that she expand the restaurant, or open a restaurant to expand the business.

Song Tian shook her head:

“Seeing that my husband is about to go to the capital to take the imperial examination, I will follow him to the capital.

I'll leave this small shop to Uncle Tieshan and Brother Suozhu to run. If we do too much, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it!"

Both father and son are honest and decent people.

It's okay to look at a small shop.

If they were really asked to run a restaurant like Manager Yang, they would probably make mistakes.

Uncle Tieshan also knew his own worth, and he scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this:

"Hehe, Miss Tian is really thoughtful.

Suozhu and I are definitely not that cut out for each other!"

Wang Suozhu, with a red face, handed Song Tian an iron statue of Guan Gong.

“The shopkeeper…is going to the capital.

I...I don't have anything to show for it.

I made this Guan Erye myself, and I can guarantee... guarantee the shopkeeper's safety!"

Song Tian thanked him with a smile.

"Brother Suozhu is not young anymore, he should get married and have a big fat boy as soon as possible, so that Uncle Tieshan can be happy!"

This really touched Wang Tieshan's heart.

He took some time out of his busy schedule to show Wang Suozhu a few girls, but Wang Suozhu didn't like any of them.

Wang Tieshan understood it.

This kid is still thinking about Song Tian in his heart.

But he doesn't even look at his own character and whether he is worthy of Song Tian?

Now that Miss Tian is speaking, this boy might be able to take it to heart.

“Don’t worry, shopkeeper.

I...I will."

Although Wang Suozhu agreed, he looked unhappy.

Xie Yunzhe passed two tests in a row and is now a juren.

After autumn, it’s time to set off to Beijing for the exam!

Song Tian looked up at the sky.

It’s so fast!

In the blink of an eye, it is October again.

Song Tian has been here for one year and eight months.

When she received the dividends from the second crop of chili cooperative this year, Xie Yunzhe was about to set off for Beijing to take the imperial examination.

His classmates Chen Ming, Xu Lei and others did not perform well in the college examination. Although they became scholars, they were not very confident of passing the imperial examination.

Therefore, I did not dare to take part in the provincial examination this time, and planned to wait for three years before making any decision.

Zhou Zijian was a scholar from the previous session. Because he had been secretly competing with Xie Yunzhe, he got the first place in Zhuolin Prefecture in this provincial examination, which is also known as the champion.

Xie Yunzhe passed three levels of examinations in a row and took third place in the provincial examination.

Because of this, Qingshan Academy became famous again and also became well-known in the entire Zhuolin Prefecture.

Unexpectedly, Kang Wenyong, who was in the outer courtyard and was not favored by everyone, actually passed the college entrance examination by a narrow margin, and advanced to the last place, and became a juren!

Kang Wenyong didn't want to go with Xie Yunzhe when he went to Beijing this time.

I feel that with my level, it would be a waste of time to go to Beijing.

But Aunt Wen disagreed.

She said she had finally waited for the opportunity to go to the capital, and she couldn't just not go because he said so.

Whether it succeeds or not, you have to give it a try to feel at ease.

Moreover, he was able to pass two tests in such a short time, which was a miracle, and it was all thanks to Xie Yunzhe's help with his tutoring.

This time we went to Beijing together, and Xie Yunzhe was there to give lectures along the way.

Maybe I can pass the exam!

Kang Wenyong couldn't persuade his mother, so he had to agree.

"A Tian, ​​mother should have gone with us, but Shuang Shuang is about to give birth, and there is no one at Yipin Pavilion to take care of her..."

Liu said with a guilty look on her face as she helped to pack up.

Song Tian heard the conversation between the mother and son in the room.

When Liu thought about returning to the capital, she couldn't help but worry about being reminded of the past and she cried several times.

Furthermore, Song Tian felt that this time after entering the capital, the relationship between her and Xie Yunzhe might change.

She has accomplished her mission and is about to retire, and perhaps part ways with the Xie family.

Without Liu, she felt less entangled.

"Mom, just stay here without worry. You and Shuangshuang have worked so hard for so long to create Yipin Pavilion.

Besides, Shuangshuang is constrained by the He family, so you have to help her make the decision."

Last year, the He family was in crisis and asked Shuangshuang for money to help them through the difficult times.

But now that the storm has passed, Jiang begins to feel that it is losing face as a mother-in-law to be nice to her daughter-in-law all day long, and starts to make trouble again!

Fortunately, He Wenyu was clear-headed this time and always defended his pregnant wife in front of his mother.

Liu held Song Tian's hand gratefully and ashamedly:

"It's going to be hard work again, Tian!"

Seeing that she was about to feel sad again, Song Tian quickly held her hand back.

"Mom, it's been so long, why are you still so polite to me!

Besides, I have something to ask of you.

He had previously promised Chen Ming that he would help him pass the imperial examination.

Now that I'm leaving, Uncle Tieshan may not take this matter to heart. Mom, help me remember to send him money regularly, so that people don't say that we are untrustworthy!

But we can't just give money and do nothing. We invest in him in the hope of getting a return.

How well you study needs to be tested regularly.

If he slacks off, the money will no longer be given.”

She also hoped that Chen Ming would come to Beijing as soon as possible to serve as a ceremonial figure for her business.

"Although Uncle Tieshan and his son run a good shop, they haven't received much education and don't understand many things.

If you encounter a problem that you can't solve, Mom will help you out with some advice!"

Liu came from a prominent family and was quite capable in dealing with people and doing things, but he was too soft-hearted and easily underestimated himself.

Song Tian needs to give her more tasks to boost her confidence.

“Oh, okay.

Mother has remembered it all..."

Liu put away her other emotions and went over Song Tian's arrangements in her mind, thinking about making a list of rules later so that she wouldn't forget them someday.

On the sixth day of October, the day to set off finally arrived.

Originally, we should have taken the water route to Beijing, but it is said that there has been drought in the south of the Yangtze River for two consecutive years, and the water level of the canal has dropped, so only one cargo ship can pass through.

This time also coincided with the annual time when all provinces and prefectures paid tribute to the imperial court. An order was issued for the grain transport that only tribute ships could be transported within two months, and private ships were not allowed to leave.

If we wait another two months, we might miss the scientific examination.

So, they had no choice but to take the land route.

Song Tian invested money and bought a carriage.

Aunt Wen sent someone to take on the task of coachman.

Kang Wenyong and Xie Yunzhe, sitting in the stable carriage, were still studying hard.

It took Song Tian a lot of effort to leave the city.

When they heard that she was leaving, all the familiar customers and shop owners came to see her off.

Yang Shucai and Liu Shouren were also reluctant to leave.

Captain Zhang and Magistrate Xu also came to see him off in person.

After exchanging greetings for more than an hour, they finally left Fenglin County and successfully embarked on the journey to Beijing!
