Pet wife Imperial Examination Road

The stalls in the town were almost sold out, and the shop had just opened, so Cheng Mu took Yun Yun to the cloth shop first.

"Both, do you want to buy cloth or make clothes?" Xiaoer asked enthusiastically.

"Buy a pair of canvas shoes for my wife."

Xiao Er led the two of them to the side, and there were colorful women's cloth shoes on the shelves. Yun Yun saw the mandarin ducks and lotus embroidered on them, and quickly shrank back. He didn't want to wear such shoes.

Cheng Mu knew what Yun Yun meant, so he directly took a plain gray shoe with only one or two bamboo shoes on it, and turned around to ask Yun Yun's opinion.

Yun Yun felt relaxed when he saw these shoes. The shoes were simple in style and suitable for both men and women, so he nodded immediately.

Seeing that these two people are so forthright, Xiaoer quickly went to measure the size of Yun Yun's feet.

"Bacun, guest officer, you don't look tall, your feet are not small, why don't you take men's shoes, these shoes also have men's styles."

After hearing this, Cheng Mu frowned and asked Yun Yun's opinion. It's a little ugly for a woman to wear men's shoes.

Yun Yun couldn't be happier, she bought shoes that still look like bamboo, and Yun Yun wrapped them up before putting them in the basket at ease. This was the first thing Cheng Mu bought for him.

Going forward is a jewelry store. Yun Yun married without a dowry. Her hair is always tied with cloth, and normal women use silver hairpins.Cheng Mu wanted to go in and buy, but Yun Yun dragged him away.Fortunately, Cheng Mu thought that Yun Yun would not be willing to spend money, so he thought that when he had money, he would secretly buy one for Yun Yun.

In the end, I also bought potato and radish seeds, all of which were bought by Yun Yun. I also bought five chicks. The chicks are raised now and can be eaten after the Chinese New Year.

Good things to buy The sun is already in the west, and lunch in town is expensive, and they plan to wait until they get home.

The road out of the town is different from the road when I came here. The road is paved with blue bricks, and it is not tiring to walk.Walking forward, there are fewer shops and so on, but more green trees.

Not far away, I heard the sound of many people studying. I have walked this journey many times. This is the only school in the whole town——Nanlin School. The sound of reading just now came from here.

"Heaven's mandate is called nature, self-willedness is called Dao, and cultivating Dao is called teaching. Dao is one that cannot be separated even for a moment; if you can leave it, it is not Dao."

When the uniform voice came, Yun Yun couldn't help but stop.

When he was young, his father was a rare scholar in the town, but he failed the exam and taught in the school. He grew up in the school when he was a child, and he could memorize the four books and five classics by heart.Now hearing these familiar sentences again, I can't help but sigh that things are right and people are wrong.

"Let's go."

Yun Yun nodded, and walked forward with Cheng Mu's arm. Now he is no longer the talented and intelligent son of Yun Xiucai back then, but an ordinary farm boy.

Walking to the gate of Nanlin Academy, just as the students were leaving school, a group of rich children in silk and satin came out.Yun Yun also saw the figure of her cousin Yun Wu.

This year needs 20 taels of silver, which is enough to cover the expenses of a family for two years. Unless you are really rich, you can't afford it.

Yun Wu naturally saw the figure of his cousin, but now that Yun Yun has nothing to do with him, he doesn't want his classmates to know that he has a brother who is married to a man.

Back home, before it was dark, Yun Yun and Cheng Mu hurriedly planted radishes and potatoes. The two of them dug a hole to bury it, and the other carried water to water it.After everything was done, it was already dark, so I cleaned up a little and went to bed after eating.

The nights are always so long, after being together for a month, Cheng Mu is fully used to having someone by his side, and the loneliness gradually disappears.Yun Yun has become a part of his life, at least he has someone to listen to.

Early the next morning, Yun Yun was still asleep, and when he heard someone shouting outside, he hurried in and out to see, and Li was leading a group of people talking at the door.

"Our rivers in the south of the Yangtze River are being treated. It's said above that each family can send out a strong man to be exempted from this year's tax. You can choose whether to go or not."

Yun Yun stood at the door, listening to Cheng Mu talking to them.

"This river is the big river on the west side of the town. Didn't the floods flood a lot of farmland a few years ago? It started to be repaired this year. If you go now, you can come back before farming. It's just that it's not easy to repair the river. "

"Are you going to take care of the meal?" Cheng Mu asked.

"This meal is full of food, but there is no wages. Cheng Mu, you are newly married. If you don't want to go, you don't have to go." It's mandatory.

"I'll go, you write my name on it."

Hearing the news, Yun Yun went back to the house and sat on the bed. It took a lot of energy to build the river, and if he accidentally fell into the river and drowned, no one would make a decision. He was a little worried about Cheng Mu.

Seeing that his name was written on it, Cheng Mu sent Lizheng away and went back to the house. He noticed that Yun Yun was angry. After all, he did not discuss this matter with Yun Yun on his own initiative.

"Ayun, you were angry just now, and I want to tell you why I'm going."

Cheng Mu began to speak solemnly, "First, you can be exempted from taxes for one year, so that we can have more money, and if you have children in the future, we can take good care of them." It seems a little inappropriate to say this, He has always regarded Ah Yun as a person who will accompany him all his life, not as a tool to bear children. Whether he has children or not, those are not important. "Even if we don't have kids, I think if we save more money, it will come in handy later."

"Second, the river over there has always been flooded in recent years, which is not good for the villagers. If I don't go, others have to go. This is a major event for the country and the family. Third, there is not enough food at home. , I thought I could save a little grain by going there, so that I could eat it until winter."

One line is very clear, Yun Yun thinks all three are reasonable, but what if the river floods to build the river, he can't imagine what he would do without Cheng Mu.

"Ayun, I will take good care of myself. It's just that I'm going to build a river, and I won't be at home for half a month, so I need you to take care of me at home. Don't worry, I will come back well."

Yun Yun believes that Cheng Mu will come back in good health. After all, Cheng Mu is capable, he can do everything, and building river channels will definitely not be a problem for him.

Li Zheng told them to gather at the small shop at the head of the village at dawn the next morning. One-third of the men in the village went to repair the river, and most of them wanted to reduce their family's taxes.

The night before leaving, Yun Yun used all the white flour at home, made a lot of scones, and wrapped them in cloth for Cheng Mu to take with him to eat. They were talking about big projects like building rivers It takes a lot of effort, so bring it now, just in case.

When everything was ready, Yun Yun got up early the next day and wanted to see Cheng Mu off. The two were newlyweds, and he still felt worried that they would not see each other for half a month.

There were already many people standing at the head of the village, Cheng Mu saw that Shi Chen was about to leave, Yun Yun stood on tiptoe and quickly kissed him on the cheek.

During this kiss, Cheng Mu directly embraced him, and kissed Yun Yun's forehead with his thick lips, "A Yun, don't go out indiscriminately when I come back."

Yun Yun looked up at the man with soft eyes and nodded.
