Chapter 55

Although Ye Xiaoman wasn't sure what he said, but he was right. Zhao Jingzhe arrived at Qin's house, and after confirming the situation from Qin Yao himself, before he could open his mouth, Qin Yao took the initiative to speak.

"Although Taoyuan Town is a small town, but because there have been two champions here, and the place is relatively prosperous and prosperous, there is a government school here, and many students from other places come here to take classes. Do you want to go? I can ask my brother-in-law to You write letters of recommendation."

"Actually, I came here today. Apart from thanking the Qin family for their rescue that day, I also wanted to find out about this matter. Now that I don't say much, thank you." Zhao Jingzhe probably knows a little about Qin Yao's personality. This person talks and does things. They are very straightforward. Such a person probably doesn't like being treated to Tai Chi by others, so he can simply thank them directly.

"It's a trivial matter, no need to thank you."

Today I was going to come to the town with Xiaoman, but they all left. Father Ye arrived at home. He had to go to the village to help today. He was worried that Auntie Xiaoman would be alone at home. Zhao Jingzhe had to let Xiaoman stay and take care of her Damn.

When they went to town today, apart from going to Qin's house, they had to buy winter cotton clothes for themselves and A Niang.Zhao Jingzhe couldn't tell the size of the ancient times at all, and now he didn't know how to tell the store. He could only choose the finished products according to the figure of Xiaoman's parents, hoping that they would fit them well.

After buying clothes, Zhao Jingzhe went to the vegetable market to buy a lot of vegetables, most of which were meat, the weather was getting colder and colder, and the kitchen at home was full of oil and water, so maybe he could still feel warmer.

When Zhao Jingzhe came home, he didn't stop at the door of the house, but drove directly to Ye's house. Anyway, most of the things in his car were bought for his parents. When the time came, he picked up Xiaoman and went home.

"Hey, Jing Zhe, why didn't you bring Xiao Man to the town today?" When these two got married, there were not many people in the village who were optimistic about it, and not many people went to drink wedding wine, and they were all people with good relations with the Zhao family and Ye family.But what the whole village didn't expect was that when the two got married, their relationship was so strong that they went in and out together every day, even Zhao Jingzhe would bring Ye Xiaoman with him every time he went to town.

People in this village, as long as they get married, the man has to be the master of the house. On weekdays, the man goes to the town, and the woman or the younger brother has to clean up at home or work in the field. Go to the street to buy something.

"Auntie, Auntie is not feeling well today. I'll let Xiaoman take care of her at home. I'm going to pick him up now."

"Ah, the two elders of the Ye family are really blessed." He glanced at the things in Zhao Jingzhe's car, because he couldn't see anything through the curtain, but the aunt felt that there must be a lot of good things inside.

Ye Xiaoman looked at the sky, thinking that Zhao Jingzhe should be back, and Father should be back too, so he can start cooking.

"Aniang, are you going to repair the embankment this year?"

"I don't know. Your father went to see the village head and the others today. If the river is not damaged much this year, it should be repaired. The villagers can go together and repair it in a few days." There is a wide river, although this river is convenient for their life, but the occasional flood year will make the crops along the river fail.For the sake of this village, the river embankment has been built since that year. The high and firm embankment can block most of the river water in flood days, and the crops on the river bank can also be preserved.

"It doesn't seem like there was any big flood today, so it should be fine. Mommy, daddy and the others should be back too, so I cooked the rice." Ye Xiaoman stewed the soup with a piece of bacon left at home, ready to Stir-fry cooked bacon and dried mushrooms in a dish, wait until the rice is cooked and start preparing the stir-fry, and everything will be out of the pan after a while.

Zhao Jingzhe was still going home a little ahead of Apa Ye, and when he opened the courtyard door, he could smell a scent, so he quickly tied up the horses and carts and got ready to unload food for dinner.

"Jing Zhe, you're back, you can eat right away, and we'll have dinner when Dad comes back." As he spoke, Xiao Man hurried to help with the order.He knew that Zhao Jingzhe wanted to buy winter clothes for his family, but he didn't expect Zhao Jingzhe to buy so many things.

"Brother Zhao, there are a lot of quilts at home, why did you buy several more beds?" Zhao Jingzhe is getting used to the extravagant spending of money, and Ye Xiaoman is gradually getting used to it. After all, almost all the money in the family is earned by Zhao Jingzhe, so he can't say What.He knew that Zhao Jingzhe always went home to buy food, but why did he remember to buy a quilt today.

"It's cold~ the weather is getting colder and colder. This is a quilt made of new cotton. It's warm when you cover it. I bought three beds. My father and the others are getting older and I will give them two beds. We have two beds and one bed is enough." gone."

"Yeah." Thinking of Aniang's health getting worse this year, Ye Xiaoman didn't want Aniang to suffer any more in winter, and didn't say anything more, just followed Zhao Jingzhe to quickly take things into the house.

Zhao Jingzhe also bought some stewed vegetables today, and after asking Xiaoman to cut them up and put them in bowls, he waited for Dad to come back and start cooking.

When Father Ye came back, it happened that Zhao Jingzhe was there with the padded jackets he bought for the two of them.All the clothes Papa Ye has worn over the years have been sewn by his wife stitch by stitch. He is naturally happy to have ready-made clothes, but they are so expensive.

"Jing Zhe, why are you so lavish on money, kid? Why are you wasting money like this? I still have winter clothes, and your mother made them for me."

"Father, you've been wearing that padded jacket for several years. I don't think it's warm. It should be very cold this winter. When will it be? I can't bear the wind blowing on my body." Originally, last year, Ah Mother is about to make clothes for Dad, but Dad probably won't let me, so I have to add a new dress this year anyway.

"Nonsense! Didn't you do it during the Chinese New Year?"

"But... Jingzhe has already bought it anyway, and I can't return it. It's a pity if you don't wear it." Ye Xiaoman forgot that during the Chinese New Year, they will definitely add new clothes, but the Chinese New Year is the Chinese New Year. My dad hasn't made clothes for a long time.

"Okay, I've already bought things. It's useless to earn more. Let's eat first. I'm really hungry. I went to town today and I was busy with errands, so I didn't buy anything to eat."

"Then let's serve dinner quickly, Xiaoman, go and put it on the table." Today's Ye family's dinner is very sumptuous, with two meat dishes. Ye Xiaoman knows that Zhao Jingzhe likes to eat mushrooms, but he also knows that Zhao Jingzhe doesn't like to eat mushrooms. He likes others to serve him food, so when serving the food, he directly put the sautéed bacon and mushrooms that he made in front of Zhao Jingzhe.

When the family was eating, Zhao Jingzhe also told about going to Qin's house today, knowing that Zhao Jingzhe might be going to the academy to study soon, Ye Xiaoman didn't know why, but he panicked.

"For such a big matter, why don't you discuss it with your family first!" Ye Xiaoman just felt a little flustered, but he didn't feel that something was wrong. After thinking about it, he was still happy for Zhao Jingzhe. It could be heard that she was very angry about this matter, they didn't understand, how could Aniang Ye be so angry?

"Jing Zhe, you have lived a leisurely and innocent life since you were a child. You don't know that people's hearts are sinister, and the officialdom is even worse. It's a place that eats people and doesn't spit out their bones! Can't you and Xiaoman live your little life with peace of mind? Besides, even if you are You have studied, you have passed the exam, but what if you fail the exam? Isn’t this a waste of time? If you pass the exam, do you know how much trouble you will have in the future? Do you have to deal with many personnel matters? If you are not careful, you may become a stepping stone for others. Let alone being an official, even the ordinary people will not be able to live well. The children will be slaves, slaves, slaves, exiled soldiers, and the whole family will be affected.... Have you ever thought about this? ?"

"Aniang...it's not that serious, is it?" Seeing that her eyes were red, Ye Xiaoman was really shocked. What Aniang said is so scary, she must have thought too far ?

"Aniang, it's my fault. I didn't make it clear to you. In fact, I want to go to the academy to study and take the exam. In order not to become an official in the future, I just want to live a freer and safer life.

What happened that day, I feel scared when I think about it, what will happen if we don't know the Qin family?Could it be that I was beaten to death in the prison, Xiaoman was bullied, and everything in the house would be confiscated in the end?

A Niang, I don't have any big ambitions, and I know how much I have. I just want to do my best to fight for an identity that can protect our family.Don't worry, Aniang, don't say what I can pass the exam in the future, even if I do pass the exam, I won't be an official.

I heard from Qin Yao that there is a master Juren in our town who has a leisurely income at home. His family has a source of income sufficient for his living expenses. He occasionally goes back to the academy to teach students on weekdays. He has no official position , but the people here respect him very much. "Zhao Jingzhe thinks that person's life is like the life of a university professor, how nice it is to be respected and live freely.

"Hey, you are talking about Mr. Gao, but how many Mr. Gao are there in this world? Mr. Gao is a well-known child prodigy here. Then he will be able to write poems. And he has been going smoothly since he took the entrance examination for junior students. If he hadn’t been interested in the officialdom and married at the age of 19, and he hadn’t taken the examination, he would have no problem even taking the exam.” Aniang Ye had heard it before At that time, she admired Mr. Gao's name, but it was a pity that her family was too far away from Taohua Town. Later... when she arrived in Taohua Town, she had no chance to see him again.

"Okay, what are you talking about now, since Jing Zhe has already made up his mind, let him try."

"we can only do this"

Parents agreed, and Xiaoman naturally had no objection, so when he went back, Jingzhe still looked puzzled, Xiaoman was puzzled, what was Jingzhe still worried about.
