"We met at breakfast." Xiao Zhen said quickly, she didn't want any misunderstanding to arise.
Han Ziran glanced at her.
Mrs. Liu smiled, then saw that there were a lot less buns in the pot, and asked curiously: "Third brother, did you take so many buns?"
When Xiao Zhen wanted to say that he had eaten, Han Ziran said: "I was a little hungry, so I took some more and put them in my bag."
Mrs. Liu nodded: "Third brother, mother asked you to go to the yard and talk to the people in the village before going to the school."
"I know." Han Ziran picked up the bag and left the kitchen.
"Sister-in-law, is there anything you need me to do?" Xiao Zhen also stood up. My sister-in-law in the previous life, Mrs. Liu, was pretty good to her, or rather, she was good to everyone. On the surface, Mrs. Liu looked gentle and virtuous, but in fact she was quite temperamental.
weak.
"I don't know either. Mom will come and tell you. You should have breakfast first." Mrs. Liu said and started doing housework.
She had already eaten, so Xiao Zhen simply left the kitchen. She had to think carefully about how to spend these days.
Seeing Xiao Zhen leaving, Mrs. Liu murmured while wiping the table: "The third brother is admitted as a scholar, and the third brother and sister will be the scholar's wife. Even if my mother doesn't like the third brother and sister, she is already married. Oh, I really didn't expect the third brother.
If I marry such a family, how should I get along with my three younger siblings in the future?"
This room was thinking about the word scholar lady. Over there, Xiao Zhen was about to enter his room when he heard a familiar voice shouting through the air: "Hey, isn't this our scholar lady?"
Xiao Zhen twitched the corner of his mouth and turned his head mechanically. He saw her parents, who were smiling so hard that their whole faces were wrinkled, walking towards her. At the same time, with such a rough voice, she successfully ignored the villagers who came to congratulate them.
His eyes were drawn to her.
Xiao Zhen had the urge to cry, why should he be so eye-catching: "Dad, mother, why are you here?"
"Can you not come to such a big happy event? Look at you, you are so excited that you almost cry." Aunt Xiao smiled without even opening her eyes. She looked at her daughter from side to side. The more she looked at her, the more she felt that her daughter looked like a scholar.
Isn't she excited, okay? Xiao Zhen said quickly: "Mom and dad, you go back first."
"I'm not busy at home." Aunt Xiao said, rolling her eyes, she said loudly: "Let me tell you, our family is really lucky to help husbands. Not long after we got married, our son-in-law has been admitted as a scholar."
He looked at Mother Han who was smiling stiffly in the yard, intentionally or unintentionally.
It was so quiet in the yard. After a while, someone suddenly appeared.
"Yeah yeah."
"That's right, this wife just got married, and then she became a scholar. Isn't she just helping her husband's luck?"
"Mom..." The eldest brother and the second brother of the Han family saw their mother's hands clenched into fists and trembling all the time. They looked at each other, and there was nothing they could do for a moment.
Seeing that the Han family was silent, Aunt Xiao walked up to Han Ziran, who was looking at Xiao Zhen: "Oh, this child is getting more and more beautiful. Son-in-law, tell me, does my Xiao Zhen have the luck to help her husband?"
Before Han Ziran could say anything, Mother Han said: "Ziran will be admitted as a scholar because he studied hard and was cultivated by our Han family."
In other words, it has nothing to do with Xiao Zhen.
Aunt Xiao was stunned for a moment, and then said with a smile: "That's natural, but then again, if Ziran hadn't married Xiao Zhen, maybe he wouldn't have been a scholar this time. Haha, no one knows about this kind of thing.
right?"
Xiao Zhen closed his eyes, and when he opened them, he took his parents' hands and walked out.
"Azhen, what are you doing?" Aunt Xiao shouted, "I haven't finished speaking yet."
Of course, I can't give my aunt another chance to talk. If she continues, her life in the Han family will only become more difficult. Xiao Zhen pulled the two of them out hard, and she didn't let go until they were a little far away from the Han family.
The sky was clear, and although it was bone-chilling, it was a rare good weather. In the distance, villagers were working in the fields.
After walking such a long way, Xiao Zhen was no longer cold at all. He just looked at his parents helplessly: "Mom, Dad, I don't want you to get too close to the Han family."
"What are you talking about?" Aunt Xiao stared at her daughter: "They are our in-laws."
"The Han family does not regard us as in-laws. They don't like me, and they don't like you either."
"We're already married. You have to accept it even if you don't like it." Aunt Xiao muttered, "Besides, what's wrong with my Ah Zhen."
Uncle Xiao sighed beside him.
There are some things that I really can't talk to my mother about. In my mother's mind, as long as she can marry her into the Han family, that's her ability and the honor of the Xiao family. There is no concept of 'reasoning' or 'right or wrong'.
, Mom, as long as she, Xiao Zhen, has enough food and clothing for the rest of her life, everything else is not important.
Xiao Zhen is not going to waste any more words on this aspect. In the minds of the older generation, this is the case, and it is just nonsense to say more. In any case, you have to live a good life by yourself. With this thought, from the arms of
He took out 25 taels of silver and put it in his aunt's hand.
"Where did you get so much silver?" Aunt Xiao asked in surprise.
Xiao Zhen smiled: "I also hunted some and sold it myself before. I was worried that if I gave it to my aunt, it would all be used as my dowry, so I kept it."
"Oh, since you're staying here, you can use it for your own money." Aunt Xiao hurriedly stuffed it back into Xiao Zhen's hand: "I have money in my own hands, and I have the confidence to speak to my husband's family, so they won't look down on you."
"For these 25 taels of silver, I asked my aunt to help me go to the county to see if there is a suitable shop that I can rent. If it is not enough, let's talk about it."
"County? Didn't you mean the town?" Uncle Xiao asked in confusion.
Xiao Zhen smiled and said nothing. Her goal was the capital city. She didn't want to be limited to a small place in her life. Not only did she want to broaden her horizons, but she also wanted to broaden her uncle's and aunt's horizons. Once their horizons were broadened, her parents'
Thoughts will change.
She didn't want to quarrel with her parents over this kind of thing, but she could slowly change their minds, couldn't she? But even if she told her parents about these things now, they didn't understand, so she said, "I've been thinking about it these past few days.
The town is a little smaller.”
"Okay, I'll go check out the neighboring villages in the next few days to see if there are any bullock carts coming to the city. If I find out, I'll go check it out right away."
"No need to ask, I still have five taels of silver here." As he said that, Xiao Zhen took out another small bag from his arms and stuffed it into Uncle Xiao's hand.
Seeing the two elders looking at her in confusion, Xiao Zhen said: "Father, mother, our village and the two nearby villages are big villages, but in these three villages there is only one ox cart that can enter the city, and it does not go into the city often, so
"These five taels of silver are for dad to buy a cow. If it's not enough, mom, you can put some more in."
"Buying a cow to go to the city? That doesn't make sense," Aunt Xiao's eyes lit up mid-sentence: "You mean our family can use this cow to earn travel expenses in the future?"
Xiao Zhen was a little surprised at how transparent her mother was. She guessed it before she even said anything: "Mom is so smart."
Being able to make money made Aunt Xiao's eyes light up.
I heard Xiao Zhen say: "Our three villages are all big villages. There are people who go to the city and return to their hometowns every day, but they basically walk. This walk takes a day. If there is a special ox cart to go to the city, come
