The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 137 The Reader

Knowing that Li Sanlang and his wife were going to leave home as soon as possible, Zhou Jianan and his wife were also anxious.

They have been away from home for a longer time, why don't they miss the old parents and children at home?

So the two couples packed up and saluted respectively, rented a carriage and prepared to go back to their hometown.

I feel sorry for my daughter-in-law, who was in a truck to pull goods when she came, and suffered a great crime.

This time Li Sanlang was unwilling to save the money no matter what, so he must have rented a carriage to go home.

I also asked my daughter-in-law if she wanted to buy something to take back. The items in the provincial capital were more complete than those in the county, and there were more patterns.

Fang Qingqing doesn't want it.

No matter how good the things in the provincial capital are, can they compare to the things in the capital?

"Brother Sanlang, didn't you say that you will go to Beijing to take the exam in the next Spring Festival? I am looking forward to going to the capital with you to buy good things." Fang Qingqing said with a smile.

The meaning hidden in the words is very clear, when you go to the capital, I will go too!

Li Sanlang nodded, "Well, it's time to buy Qingqing the brightest clothes and the most beautiful jewelry."

Hehe, men's mouths are deceiving ghosts, and scholars are no exception!
And on the same day, at Li's Noodle Restaurant in Anshun County, Mrs. Li, who was boiling soup, accidentally overcooked a pot of soup.

Li's mother, who was cutting vegetables, almost cut her finger, and Li's second wife accidentally broke a bowl when she was clearing the table.

They are all women who have been doing housework all their lives, and they rarely make such mistakes, and several of them began to feel restless.

Because today is a special day, although a few people don't know the big things, they also know that today is the last day of Saburo's exam.

Anyway, I didn't work hard, and it happened that there were no customers in the noodle shop at the moment, so I closed the door and took a rest for half an afternoon.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were talking in the lobby.

Suddenly feeling scared in my heart, sister-in-law Li and sister-in-law Li glanced at each other, and looked at her mother-in-law together:

"Mother, it is said that Saburo should finish the exam today, I wonder if he can pass the exam?"

"how could I know?"

Shi Shi took a rag and wiped it here and there, and the tables, chairs and benches that were already in a hurry looked brighter.

It's just that my heart is still gray.

Instead, he asked the two daughters-in-law: "Sanlang is so strong, he said that the provincial examination will take nine days, can he hold it?"

"Here, it shouldn't be a problem if Qingqing is with you, right?" Sister-in-law Li said, looking a little worried.

Second Sister-in-law Li was more clever and cunning, she smiled directly at Shi Shi and said, "Mother, since Qingqing has followed, there must be no problem."

If there is a problem, it is also the third daughter-in-law's own fault!

It's okay, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law simply found a chair to sit down, and it is rare to have such a chance to rest in the busy shop.

After a while, Shi Shi started to mutter again: "Qingqing asked someone to send a letter back, saying that she will go home after the exam, and I don't know if I can come back today."

If no one speaks, all kinds of thoughts are rushing back and forth in my heart.

Sister-in-law Li also behaved this time, and said repeatedly: "Sure, they will come back after the exam, shall we make something delicious and wait for them?"

As a result, these words were immediately responded by Mrs. Shi and Mrs. Li. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law brought the meat back and prepared to cook.

It was old man Li who stopped him: "I just finished the exam today, so I'm sure I won't come back so soon, at least I have to wait until tomorrow."

Then he said, "Isn't it enough to eat beans tonight? Save the meat for tomorrow."

He also yelled at the children who were guarding on the other side: "What are you looking at, don't you go to sweep the yard? You eat so well every day and don't work. Tell your parents to teach you."

Looking at the drooling meat, the big hair, the second hair, the third hair, and the fourth hair were crying together in their hearts.

Uncles and aunts, come back quickly, grandparents don’t love us anymore, and parents don’t want us anymore!
Ever since my aunt went to the provincial capital to find her uncle, she had never seen meat in the house.

I help out in the noodle shop every day and smell the fragrance, but my grandfather insists that I can't eat it.

It is for the guests to eat, and if you want to keep it to make money, we can just go home and eat.

There is delicious food at home, anyway, white flour steamed buns are enough, plus white porridge.

Side dishes?

There are a lot, from my own vegetable garden, eggplant, bean, green cucumber and cabbage.

Will you change the way of doing it differently, fried beans, pickled beans, dried beans, sour beans, dare you say that these are not good things?

The children are bitter, they haven't seen any meat for more than half a month, and everything looks green.

They are also asked to read and write every day. In fact, grandpa himself is illiterate, so he checks their homework every day with his hands behind his back.

Ask Da Mao to say, pretending, grandpa is so fake!
Then the whisper was heard by the grandfather, and then his father beat him up severely.

It's been three days, and my ass still hurts badly!
"Hey!" Da Mao sighed.

"Hey!" Er Mao sighed.

"Hey!" Sanmao and Simao sighed in unison.

So the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who originally wanted to sigh, exchanged glances and decided to come and teach the children to do housework, and the children wanted to cry again.

Uncle and aunt, come back quickly, grandparents are going crazy——

On the second day, Shi felt that he could take another day off, so the Li's noodle shop was still closed that day.

From noon, the Li family members wandered around the yard after lunch.

Seeing the old man shaking in front of him, Shi's eyes hurt, "Didn't you say that the fields have been dry recently, why don't you go back and water them?"

When Lao San and Qing Qing came back, they must talk to her first, it would be better to send the old man away.

Thus, old man Li realized how it felt to dislike the children yesterday.

Sister-in-law Li turned Li Dalang around and asked him to go to the intersection to see if the third child and Qingqing had returned;

After a while, let him go to the stove to watch the fire. The chicken soup on the stove is specially stewed for the third child to nourish his body.

"Sister-in-law, it's not that fast. The last time I got up before dawn and set off, it was almost dark before I got home." Li Erlang said.

He has been to the provincial capital, so of course he has the most say.

It seems so, Mrs. Shi has calmed down, but the old man Li Dalang Li Erlang standing there is still very annoying.

"Go back and cut down the tree in the backyard of the old house. It will take time to polish the wood."

"Sanlang will go to Beijing after passing the exam. There is no need to buy furniture for him." Old man Li replied.

At that time, Mrs. Shi was not happy again: "Who said that you can't add something to Qingqing after building furniture for the third child? Back then, her dowry was not complete, so I can't make up for her?"

Old man Li knew that the old lady was just looking for trouble, but he didn't dare to talk back.

In case the old woman who is in a bad mood these days grabs him and scolds him again.

Anyway, a group of people are in a mess, and their moods are so up and down.

As a result, at this time, Sanmao Simao, who was playing outside the yard, ran in and started shouting from a distance:
"Grandma, my aunt is back, my uncle and aunt are back."

Uncle and aunt are back, can we eat meat now?
