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

Chapter 148 A Happy Event for the Whole Village

None of them expected that Li Sanlang would have such a good future, or that Fang Qingqing would have such good luck.

If other people in the village were just talking about it, the one who shocked No.60 the most was Lao Fang's family.

In the past, many people praised the old Fang's family. Although there are four sons in the family, the one who loves the most is the daughter.

Didn't it seem that someone gave birth to four uneasy babies, and finally got a little padded jacket?

But since the old Fang's family had an accident, and Fang Qingqing was sent by her mother to the sick and talented scholar Lang Chongxi of Lao Li's family with a gift money of eight taels of silver, the tone of many people in the village changed again.

Do you love your little girl?
Not really, at that time there were quite a few wives who disdained her, didn't they just sell their own daughter for a few taels of silver?

This is Fang Qingqing's good luck, and she is also lucky to have a prosperous husband, otherwise she will be a widow after she gets married, and her life will be difficult in the future.

Some people were envious and jealous, some felt aggrieved and some just wanted to watch the fun, so they ran to old Fang's house and told the good news to old man Fang who was drying herbs at home.

This year, by going to the county town to sell tofu and collect herbs to sell herbs, Lao Fang’s family earned a total of 18 taels of silver in half a year. After deducting some extra expenses and saving some money for the elderly and children in the family, they can pay off all the debts by the end of the year. Debt paid off.

Old man Fang breathed a sigh of relief, his back could straighten up, and he even fantasized about using the cloth brought back by his daughter to make new clothes for a trip to the county town during the Chinese New Year.

Have a good drink or two with your in-laws, and ask them to be more responsible.

After all, Yaomei is young, and she is still ignorant in many places. If there is something wrong with her husband's family, she can only ask for their understanding.

At the beginning, he married Yaomei like that, but he could only lie paralyzed on the bed and couldn't do anything. Until now, old man Fang couldn't get over the hurdle in his heart.

"Congratulations bro."

"What can I say, what joy can I have?"

"You don't know yet? Li Sanlang has passed the exam. It is said that he is the No.1, and he is the only one in our entire county." The visitor looked at Old Man Fang and said with a smile on his face: "Brother, come here!" In two days, people from the old Li family will come back to serve wine, you have to take the little brother to have a drink or two."

The kid from his family happened to go to the county to exchange eggs for something, but he heard the lively beating of gongs and drums in the alley next to him, so he ran to see it.

In the end, he found out about this matter, and was stuffed with a lot of wedding candy by that stingy old woman of the Li family. The grandchildren at home were very happy when they brought it back.

That kid happened to watch the audience at that time, and of course he had to tell the villagers all the truth when he came back.

He also brought back the first-hand information, old man Li said that after Sanlang came home from that banquet, he would come to the village to hold wine.

If he passed the exam, he was still No. 1, and he was the only one who passed the exam in the entire county?
No, old man Fang felt a little dizzy, why did he feel that his legs were not working anymore?

With a loud bang, old man Fang fell to the ground directly, and it took him a long time to realize that the man was talking about his son-in-law, Li Sanlang, who was married by Yaomei Chongxi?

At that time, he was lying on the bed and couldn't move. The old woman decided to marry Yaomei. At first, Yaomei was reluctant to die.

Old man Fang was also upset, he didn't want to be poked at the back and scolded in the future, he thought about just letting go of the marriage.

But the old woman refused, saying that the fourth child still needed money to get married, and the falling out at this time was due to the feud of the old Li's family.

Furthermore, no matter what, Li Sanlang was selected as a scholar, and the two also combined their horoscopes.

Maybe Qingqing is really lucky to marry Li Sanlang. If he is a successful student in the future, wouldn't he be blessed with his daughter?
Old man Fang didn't believe this, but under the circumstances at that time, he could only use those words to comfort himself.

They even thought that if there was a bad result, they would be sorry for Yaomei.

He also has four sons, each of whom is helping out. Yaomei will not be bullied too much in her husband's house, right?

I didn't expect... I didn't expect...

Their youngest sister is really a lucky one, he has a very lucky girl!

Hahaha, old man Fang looked up to the sky and laughed three times, rejoicing that he would also have a son-in-law of a master in the future.

Not to mention that because of the son-in-law's great event, the people in the old Fang's family are in the middle of a bustling, old man Li and Shi's are discussing the important matter of running the wine.

Saburo has already returned from the provincial capital, and he should go back to his hometown to hold a banquet in a few days. Naturally, he has to arrange and discuss everything.

Now that I have made up my mind to go back to hold a banquet, I am afraid that people in the whole village will go to eat, but I don't know how many tables to set up.

In fact, old man Li's relatives are a bit weak. In recent years, because his family has raised a sick scholar, many relatives, no matter how far or near, have not been in touch with them.

This time is different, I am afraid that those who have passed eight lifetimes will find a name to come and drink.

There are also three daughters-in-law's natal families, Shi's eldest daughter who is already married, must also be invited.

In the end, when I returned to the village, I realized that all the things I thought before didn't count. The village chief said that he wanted to set up a running water mat at the head of the village.

Everyone in the village has to help, and there is no need to ask the old Li's family to pay for it. This is a great joy for them in Hongqiao Village.

Naturally, the village collected money from door to door.

Even though the running water banquet is indeed a big expense, the old Li's family can't afford the money now, after all, many things can be produced in their own fields and vegetable gardens in their own banquets.

One sentence from the village chief dispelled all old man Li's worries:

"It's a great joy for the whole village that Li Jiasanlang is elected. Is it possible that he will forget the villagers when he gets rich?"

And he also emphatically emphasized that it was voluntary by the villagers, and it was a heartfelt effort from the top and bottom of the village.

Old man Li couldn't help but accept it, he could only accept it with a smile.

And there is Li's sister-in-law, Li's second sister-in-law, who has cleaned up the house one day in advance, cleaned the inside and outside of the house, and took out the beds, bedding and quilts of each house to dry.

The old man Li came back to live with his family. The old house, which he had left for several months, was as clean and tidy as ever.

And Li Xiuping's study room was cleaned and tidied up by Li Xiaomei herself, and some old books in it were still neatly placed on the bookshelves.

When Li Xiuping brought Fang Qingqing in to check by chance, he felt a lot of emotion in his heart.

When I was young, I was in poor health and could only study in the house. I also dreamed that one day I could get ahead by reading.

Only when he has really reached this point can he understand how much hardship there is and how much he has paid for it.

Early in the morning of the second day, the people of Lao Li's family got up and got busy, after all, they were the main family.

Although the village chief said that the villagers would be responsible for this matter, at least the people from Lao Li's family would help.

Not only that, old man Liu and his four sons and daughters-in-law all came to help early in the morning.

Coupled with the fact that there are half-aged children in the family, it is a huge scene.
