Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

Liang Kangsheng passed the exam, and when he returned home, there must be many people from ten miles and eight villages who came to give gifts. After receiving the gifts, they had to prepare a thank-you banquet. These things had to be properly arranged by Zhuang and Quyi.

Father Liang's side will also not be idle, and those who have business dealings with the Liang family will naturally not be absent after they know the news, and these people have to entertain Father Liang.

As for Liang Kangsheng, he will be the busiest one in the next few days. He is the new talent of this year.

In fact, Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi did not expect that, the Liang family welcomed guests on the day they came back, and the series of firecrackers from the Liang family just now reminded the nearest family that Mr. Xiucai is back!

The next day, people from the nearby villages also came after hearing the news. The relatives of the Qu family and the big house of the Meng family from Quyi’s side basically came from the entire village. Some of them really knew the Liang family and came to congratulate them. Some are unwilling to let go of this opportunity and come to build relationships.

Among these people, those whose family conditions are more affluent will bring a chicken, a basket of eggs or a piece of meat, and those whose families are not so affluent or stingy, will also bring radishes, cabbage, sweet potatoes, potatoes, etc. The outer courtyard has cleared up several rooms for these things, and they will be used as ingredients for the thank you banquet.

This is a gift from the folks. The business firms that came to see Liang’s father were much more generous. Some gave the four treasures of the study, and some gave money directly. Some people also offered to propose it when they learned that Liang Kangsheng bought two dilapidated shops in a remote corner of the county. Help, say it's a free refurbishment of the shop.

Refurbishment is just a rhetoric. In fact, as far as the condition of the two shops is concerned, they can only be used again if they are torn down and rebuilt.

Liang Kangsheng had discussed with Liang's father a long time ago that they did not plan to clean up the two shops for the time being, so Liang's father declined the man's proposal, saying that the family has a lot of things to do now, and they will talk about it when they are free.

Speaking of which, the people in the commercial firm gave gifts to the Liang family, not because they were mere talents, but because everyone took a fancy to Liang Kangsheng who passed the exam at a young age, and bet on his future future.

Now, taking advantage of the fact that they are only scholars, they are running the relationship. If Liang Kangsheng wins the Juren examination, they will make money. After all, Juren can be an official, and Zhima officials are also officials. They are businessmen who need to curry favor. It is also good to make friends with a scholar, anyway, the Liang family is not bad at all.

After working all day, Liang's family members were all sore and their throats were so dry from talking too much. After dinner, they went back to their respective houses, washed and rested.

Lying on the bed, Zhuang Shi didn't feel sleepy at all, she tossed and turned like a pancake, she kept thinking about the last government exam and this hospital exam that Qu Yi accompanied her son to, and she passed the exam in one go, The more she thought about it, the more excited she became, and finally she just sat up.

Father Liang was very tired now, looking at his wife's bright eyes at night, he couldn't laugh or cry: "Qingrong, there will be people coming from home today and tomorrow, if you don't sleep well, tomorrow people will say that you are a scholar. My mother is not energetic, go to sleep."

Mrs. Zhuang gulped down her saliva to moisten her throat, and said in a low voice, "Master, the more I think about it, the more I feel that our brother Yi is prosperous, our Kang Sheng, think about it, now Kang Sheng's health is very good, and he passed the exam in less than two years." Xiucai, you said that if Brother Yi continues to accompany Kang Sheng in the Juren and Jinshi exams... Hey, I can't think about it, stop it!"

In the past, Mrs. Zhuang thought about her son's sickness, and only wanted his son to be healthy. He could live as happily as he wanted, and didn't dare to think about anything else. Today, she heard a lot of compliments from others, and she felt that she might be a little bit Floating away, I can't help but think about how my son will continue to take the entrance exam in the future.

To be honest, Mrs. Zhuang has no special expectations of being an old official lady. She is simply happy for her son's future. She has never experienced this kind of happiness in the past ten years, because in the past every year when her son got sick, she would not have time to worry about it. , I have no intention of thinking about anything else.

After hearing Mrs. Zhuang's words, Father Liang patted her hand and said seriously, "Come on, I know you're happy, but you can just talk to me about these things in private. Don't tell them in front of the children, just give them more money." pressure."

In Father Liang's heart, he is no less happy than Zhuang's, so he can fully understand her mood, but he is a man, his emotions are restrained, and he can't show it easily, especially when facing outsiders, he must be calm and not let people I think Xiucaigong's father is frivolous.

Happy is indeed happy, now that their son is in good health, they can think about the future in private, but Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi must not let Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi know about these thoughts.

A scholar is selected among scholars, and a scholar is selected among many scholars. If his son knows these words and fails to pass the provincial examination, wouldn't it be a big burden on his heart, so what should he do if he is depressed? .

It's the same with Erfulang, it doesn't matter whether the son is prosperous or not, the husband and wife say a few words in private, because if the son fails to win the exam in a day, does it mean that Erfulang is not prosperous? There will be no lumps, and will their relationship as husband and wife be affected.

Mrs. Zhuang fully understands Father Liang's worries. She was in a good mood at first, but she immediately frowned when she was said to be upset: "I know, I just wanted to talk to you, making it seem like I've said it outside with great fanfare. , Am I such a careless person?"

Seeing that he made people angry, Liang's father quickly stopped: "My lady is the most sensible. Now it's us husband and wife talking privately. If you have anything to say, my wife will listen attentively and don't say too much."

Mrs. Zhuang was not really angry at all. Seeing that Father Liang stopped saying spoiling things, she happily continued to say what she had thought about during the day but was hard to say. Anyway, she was happy in private and did not accept objections.

Father Liang couldn't help it. He restrained his drowsiness and sat up and listened patiently. From time to time, he answered a few words with um, ah, ah, but he was thinking about other things——Until now, Zhuang Qingze hadn't come, which surprised Father Liang. , think about it carefully, the other party is probably guilty, or panicked.

Zhuang Qingze took the money and went out after the Chinese New Year this year. He came back at the end of April. It is said that he earned a lot outside, invited people to eat, showed off, and bought a lot of things for Zhao Hongmei's natal family. Take it to Zhao's house.

When the scenery outside was enough, Zhuang Qingze brought Zhao Hongmei and his two sons to the Liang family. Once he changed his attitude outside the Liang family, he found Zhuang and complained that it was not easy for him to be outside. Lu spends a lot of money and buys things at a high price without understanding the market. All in all, it means that he only earns hard work expenses when he goes out, and he can't pay back the Liang family's money for the time being.

Mrs. Zhuang didn't know what Zhuang Qingze was doing outside, and after hearing what Zhuang Qingze said, she felt very distressed. She kept saying that there was no rush to pay back the money, and even made a big package for them to take away, which made Liang's father sneer again and again.

Father Liang took the initiative to ask Zhuang Qingze what he did before he came to the door. He said that he did not make any money on this trip, so he was obviously coaxing ghosts. Things cost at least ten taels of silver. He was deceiving the Zhuang family who loved him and Liang's father who "believed" him as fools.

As far as Liang's father knew, Zhuang Qingze said that he was very tired from going out this trip, and that he wanted to rest at home for a while. In fact, he made a lot of money this time and wanted to show off at home for a few more days.

So Zhuang Qingze hasn't left the house yet, and news of Liang Kangsheng's passing the examination as a scholar has already spread throughout the county. Commercial firms and restaurants have sent people to Liang's house to express their congratulations. It makes no sense that Zhuang Qingze doesn't know. , if he doesn't go out, someone will come to tell him the news.

Yesterday, he had a happy day, and today, Mrs. Zhuang, who has been busy all day, has not thought of her younger brother yet. Seeing her beaming and talking, Father Liang thought that there will be fewer people coming to the house tomorrow. How should I say it.

Father Liang had a private discussion with Liang Kangsheng last night. What Liang Kangsheng meant was that since he had passed the examination as a scholar, there was no need for them to argue with Zhuang Qingze as before, and it was better to make their attitude more obvious on purpose.

The reason why he did this was that Liang Kangsheng was worried that if Zhuang Qingze changed his mind, he would not plot against the Liang family's property, but would use his own power to do something, which would be more troublesome than if he set his sights on the Liang family. , who knows what tricks he will do.

Here Mrs. Zhuang and Father Liang were not asleep, one was talking about happy things, the other was thinking about unhappy things, and Liang Kangsheng and Qu Yi were not asleep either.

To be precise, since the release of the rankings in the college examination, Qu Yi felt uneasy every day before going to bed, because he would always think of the words Liang Kangsheng said before going out that day.

Before returning to Yang'an County, he was on his way. Qu Yi thought that nothing would happen, so he fell asleep a little faster. When he got home yesterday, his spirit became more and more tense, both nervous and expectant.

But who knew that Liang Kangsheng seemed to have forgotten about that incident last night. He lay down and said a few words before going to sleep, which made Qu Yi feel unspeakably disappointed. He was too embarrassed to bring it up, thinking about it In the end, I didn't do anything, and when the sleepiness hit, I slowly fell asleep.

Qu Yi's mood changes were quite obvious, and Liang Kangsheng, who was the person next to the pillow, naturally knew it clearly. He didn't mention it because he felt sorry for the little husband who was tired. After all, Qu Yi had a lot of things to do in the past two days. He hoped that when he recalled this moment in the future, Qu Yi would only feel happy and satisfied.

In their previous life, they neither really worshiped nor became husband and wife. In this life, Liang Kangsheng did not intend to let regrets remain. He told Liang Duodao to prepare some things as soon as he came back yesterday, but now the things are not ready, so it is not the right time.

After washing and lying down, Liang Kangsheng silently rolled his eyes when he saw Qu Yi's hesitant to speak, and maliciously pretended not to notice, and told Qu Yi what he said when he met Wei Yang during the day.
