Chapter 197 Not Exiled?

Wang Dahong's body was still taken away. According to the words of the yamen servant, some evidence should be collected before it decomposes, and it will be returned for burial when it is finished.

For the rest of the matter, Chang Xi didn't come forward to participate in the presence of the village head. She, her elder brother and younger brother quietly retreated to the side.

The yamen servants and others left, and the matter of the old house came to an end.

Chang Sanshi and Wen Furong had been on an empty stomach for several days, their faces were haggard and their strength was exhausted.

The four brothers and sisters took him home and cooked rice porridge by themselves.

After all, I coaxed them to drink half a bowl, which was regarded as a continuation of life.

Until Wang Dahong was officially buried and erected a stele, there was still no news of Qin's mother and son, and the person who could not even be found in the yamen, I really don't know where he went.

Now everyone in the village is talking about it.

As for Chang Sanshi's family, their status in the village has also risen.

This is not entirely because their family is well-off now, but another reason is that their family does things well and is able to ignore previous suspicions against Wang Dahong.

Being kind to such people, everyone also thinks that they can do better in the future.

Seeing Village Chief Chang's successive incidents in the village made him physically and mentally exhausted.

Some people are saying in private that the village head Chang is getting old and is starting to discuss the next village head candidate.

Chang Xi's family is still not clear about all this.

After calming down for a few days, Chang Sanshi also gradually calmed down under Chang Xi's warmth, and he walked out of the childhood pain.

Now their family is low-key handling Changping's marriage.

Youwen and Yuan's family acted as the middleman, and Chang Ping and Miss Yuan Xiaoye exchanged birthday invitations and engagement tokens with each other.

The two parties had discussed this matter, but they didn't deliberately announce it, and they didn't even hold a banquet.

When giving the betrothal gift, all the money will be paid. As for jewelry, clothing materials, and quilts, they will be given before they get married.

Wen Furong felt that the Yuan family was reasonable and had a good impression of their family.

Time flies and it's winter.

This day was the first snowfall that Taihang Village ushered in.

Snowflakes are falling from the sky profusely, and the petals are crystal clear, and they melt naturally when they fall on the ground. The climate this year is surprisingly cold.

Chang's Secondary Courtyard was built a few years ago, and now work is over.

At this moment, the furniture is just waiting for it to be polished. It is impossible to move this year. The four brothers and sisters are practicing calligraphy in the small study.

I thought that the days would be passed in a dull manner, and the results of Qiu Wei's imperial examination were finally sent from Liaocheng to Stone Town.

Village head Chang had inquired specifically that among the students of Shigu Academy, only Huang He passed the examination as a scholar, but no one mentioned Chang Jingui's name.

Originally full of ambition, he loves to call himself Chang Jingui's brother, the person who used to fight for him, now he can't shake anymore.

To say that in Taihang Village, the one who still cares about Chang Jingui is Village Chief Chang.After all, a village can produce a scholar, that is definitely a living sign.

What's more, the Chang clan, whose incense has continued to this day, is still a family of mud legs. As long as one person obtains fame, members of the Chang clan can also follow the chickens and dogs to ascend to heaven.

When walking outside, one can also say that one has a lintel at home.

There are definitely countless good things that fame can bring.

Chang Xi can see her cousin every day, as if he has lost his mind, running to the town over and over again.

No matter how many times he runs, the result will not change.

Chang Xi wouldn't meddle in others' business to try to persuade her, she glanced lightly, then looked away, and continued to do her own thing.

At first, it was my cousin who ran by himself, but later she found out that other members of the Chang clan also liked to go to Stone Town, which she didn't understand.

"Could it be that people are being transmitted from person to person?"

Not to mention Chang Jingui's selfish and unfeeling personality, even if he is a talkative person, if he really wins a scholar, he will definitely move his family and go to Stone Town to live a good life, right?

Scholars can enjoy the salary of the imperial court every year, and a few taels of silver is not much money, so Chang Xi feels that these relatives are not worthy of honor.

Chang Le, who was concentrating on copying the copybook, asked curiously: "Sister San, what are you talking about? Why can't I understand."

"Oh, it's okay, it's okay if you don't understand, write quickly."

When studying essays, Chang Xi always closely supervised Chang Le.

When practicing martial arts, it was Chang An's turn, and the family got used to it.

After several days, she still didn't see her. The second uncle who failed in the exam came back, which was suspicious.

If you fail the exam, you can fight again, but it doesn't mean you won't go home.

Not only was the second uncle not at home, but the Chang family's old house suddenly went their separate ways as if they broke up overnight.

Occasionally, when everyone mentions it, the tone is full of embarrassment.

Wen Furong also sighed a little, thinking behind Chang Xi's back.

However, Chang Xiquan noticed that my mother lost her mind by chance, but she just didn't say anything.

On this day, the children gather around the brazier to keep warm.

The charcoal fire was burning vigorously, and by the way, sweet potatoes were roasted for snacks. When Wen Furong closed the stall and returned home, she opened her mouth in the tone of gossip.

"Oh, it's terrible, you don't know, there is another big news in the town."

Chang Xi wasn't very interested in outside affairs, but her mother was happy to say that she wouldn't disappoint, so she asked, "What news?"

Wen Furong said in disbelief, "Chang Xiuzhu was originally sentenced to exile, right?"

"At this moment, she should be on the road of exile, but guess what happened?"

Chang Xi looked at her mother with burning eyes, waiting for the next sentence.

Wen Furong didn't let everyone down either: "I saw her in the city, she just came back from outside the city, she was working as a personal servant girl by the side of Zhou Ji's coffin shop son."

"Young Master Zhou is very playful, he probably has a crush on Xiuzhu."

Chang Le was extremely dissatisfied and said: "Then what about her exile? She still has to be punished, so she is so cheap?"

Wen Furong is also worthless for Mrs. Cao and the wife of the village chief.

"Who said it wasn't? I really don't know what kind of shit luck she had, she was charged with treason, and there are still people who dare to want her."

"Although she is a personal servant girl, I think it will be a matter of time before she is accepted as a roommate because of her stickiness."

"Hey, so everyone has their own creation!"

Wen Furong sighed, and picked a sweet potato from the brazier to eat.

In Chang Xi's heart, however, he has not crossed this threshold.

Back then, Chang Xiuzhu, the cousin, went crazy and targeted herself because of Cao Jingxiu.

Now that she doesn't have to be exiled, she is bought to be a maid, and she has no chance to decide her own marriage, so will she still target herself?

No one can answer this question.

Chang Xi couldn't understand, what else would Chang Xiuzhu do?
I hope she is the best, she already knows she was wrong, and she can be a good person again.

Then would she still be the cousin I knew?
Seeing the poison in her eyes, as if she wanted to swallow her alive to be at ease, Chang Xi couldn't help but get goosebumps all over her body.

When the second snow fell in Taihang Village.

Cao Jingxiu, who went to Liaocheng to rush for the exam, is back.

He brought something for everyone, and Steward Cao came here to inform them that the brothers and sisters should go and get them.
