After picking up the daughter of the lucky star, the whole village prospered

Chen Bokang ran all the way outside the village, squatted in a deserted place and started crying.

If my father hadn't tried his best to stop me, saying that people were selected to go to the battlefield to die, and he couldn't go, I would have applied for the exam together with the Jiang family children, and maybe I would have passed the exam, and would go to the capital with them to become officials in the future.

Even the latecomer Wei Zhan passed the exam, and the 12-year-old Xiaoyao also passed the exam. There was no reason why he couldn't do it.

Well, now that I missed the opportunity, I would not only have to dig in the soil for the rest of my life, but I might even have to salute the little demon when I see him in the future.

The more Chen Bokang thought about it, the sadder he became and the louder he cried.

Chen Jiazhen finally found her son and regretted seeing her son like this.

"Bo Kang, stop crying. Why don't dad go talk to Xiaoyao and ask him to take you with him when he goes to the capital."

"I don't want it!" Chen Bokang roared angrily, got up and ran away again.

This time he simply ran down the south slope towards the old village.

Chen Jiazhen knew that she could not catch up with her son, so she had no choice but to look back.

He suddenly remembered Chen Changping, the second son of Chen Laoshuan's family.

His predecessor, Chen Changping, told him that he wanted to take some children who were good at martial arts to Chengzhou to become retainers of the county king.

Prince Cheng is the cousin of the late emperor. He can become the kind of retainer of a royal family member whose ancestral graves are filled with smoke.

Chen Jiazhen slapped her thigh and turned to look for Chen Changping.

A few days later, Mr. Wu took Xiaotong, Jiang Jie, Jiang Wu and others to the county seat, and then went with them to Jiankang City.

Ying Bao prepared a lot of pills for them to take, and secretly sent a carriage out for Mr. Wu and Jiang Jie to ride.

This carriage is spacious. Two people can sit in it and stretch out their legs. They can also lie down and take a nap when they are tired. It is much better than the one at home.

After watching the group of people riding horses and riding far away, Ying Bao turned back to the village.

Passing by Chen Zhao's snack stall, I found that she didn't set up a stall.

Yingbao didn't care. She went to the textile workshop and went to talk to Sister Wen.

Wen Shu was about to give birth and was walking around the yard with a big belly. She was very happy to see Ying Bao coming and whispered: "My mother is feeling sad when my little brother leaves."

Wen Hengyin also took the exam for Traditional Chinese Medicine, and this time he was taken to Jiankang in the capital with Wei Zhan and others.

Although Jiankang is only more than a thousand miles away from here, she doesn't know when she will be able to come back, so Xiao Zhenniang is very worried.

Ying Bao blinked: "Master, if you are really worried, you might as well go to the capital when your child is born and grows up. Anyway, my brother-in-law is going to take the National Examination next year, and you and your wife can meet there."

Wen Shu shook his head and whispered: "No, my mother-in-law is still here, how can I leave her alone."

"You can take her with you. If my brother-in-law wins, you can buy a house in the capital and live there." With Mrs. Wen's family's financial resources, buying a house in the capital is not a problem.

Wen Shu smiled: "What you said makes sense, I didn't expect it."

The two talked for a while, then Yingbao said goodbye and left.

When passing by the school, I saw that the martial arts school was crowded with children.

Because Li Xu went to take the exam, there was no one teaching in the advanced school. Many children either learned on their own or went to practice boxing, kicking, and horseback shooting with Zhang Meng.

The horses in the martial arts school were provided by Jiang Sanlang. There were two horses in total, which were temporarily used for children to practice riding and shooting.

"Sakura Treasure!"

Suddenly someone called her from behind. She turned around and saw that it was Chen Wan.

"What's the matter?" Yingbao asked.

Chen Wan grabbed her and said, "Have you seen Ah Zhao and Xu Bao today?"

"No." Ying Bao has been busy preparing luggage for her brothers today, but she didn't notice Xu Bao and Chen Zhao.

Chen Wan burst into tears: "A Zhao and Xu Bao are gone, you...can you help me look for them?" Ying Bao frowned: "Didn't you ask your grandparents?"

"I asked, but they ignored me." Chen Wan covered her face and cried. "It's all my fault, I shouldn't have abandoned them..."

Yingbao: "What about your father? He's not at home?"

Chen Wan paused and cried louder: "I...I didn't see dad. Yingbao, help me look for them. After all...after all, they are also your sister and brother."

Hearing this, Ying Bao suddenly took a few steps back and looked at Chen Wan coldly: "Don't involve me in your family's affairs, Chen Wan, and don't get involved with relatives. Your Chen family has nothing to do with me."

"But you are obviously..." Chen Wan wiped away her tears: "Yingbao, no, you should be called Chen Ying..."

"Shut up." Ying Bao scolded rudely: "Where did you know that I am your sister? Just based on your dream? Chen Wan, are you out of your mind?"

Chen Wan looked at the girl in front of her in shock: "You... you obviously acquiesced and gave me 60 taels, why did you go back on your word?"

"Acquiescence? You are so funny." Ying Bao said: "I spent 60 taels just to know what you dreamed about. If you want to blackmail me with this, you'd better save it."

"Also, your brother and sister are missing, and they have nothing to do with me. If you want to find someone, go find someone yourself, and don't bother me."

After Ying Bao finished speaking, she looked Chen Wan up and down, then turned and left.

"Don't leave." Chen Wan hurriedly tried to hold Ying Bao, but she ducked out of the way.

Ying Bao frowned and looked at Chen Wan: "What? Do you have to find me?"

Chen Wan nodded hurriedly: "I...I beg you, whether you are my sister or not, for Xu Bao's sake, please...please follow me to find her."

Ying Bao thought for a while and suddenly smiled: "Okay, you go and wait outside the village. I will come back and change my clothes."

Chen Wan nodded repeatedly: "Okay, I...I'll wait for you outside the village. You must come!"

Ying Bao was speechless, turned around and went home, telling her parents that Chen Wan wanted to go with her to find Chen Zhao.

Chun Niang immediately became angry: "This Chen Wan is so unreasonable, Bao'er, please ignore her."

Jiang Sanlang frowned and asked in a low voice: "Bao'er, she keeps pestering you to find Chen Zhao. Is there something fishy about it?"

Ying Bao nodded: "I think so too, Dad, instead of letting them make moves secretly, it's better to use the trick."

She wanted to see what Chen Wan wanted to do.

Chun Niang grabbed her daughter worriedly: "Bao'er, what are you talking about?"

Yingbao patted her mother and said, "It's okay. Mom, please stay home and don't go out. Dad and I are going out."

Chun Niang looked confused and asked quickly: "Is that Chen Wan trying to harm you? Bao'er, mother is with you."

"Not necessarily. Mom, you should stay at home while dad and I find a few people to go over."

Ying Bao comforted her mother and went out with her father.

In order not to alert others, Ying Bao decided to join up with Chen Wan and asked her father to lead a few people to follow them secretly.

It was noon now, and villagers were returning home from the fields to have their midday meal.

Ying Bao came outside the village wearing a short jacket and saw Chen Wan looking anxious.

"Let's go." Ying Bao said to her: "Where to find it? Do you know?"

When Chen Wan saw that Ying Bao had indeed come alone, she was extremely excited. She pulled her and said, "A Zhao always goes to a place to dig wild vegetables. I want to go there to see if she is there."

"Okay." Ying Bao followed Chen Wan and walked out of the market.

Nowadays, there are many residents on the south slope. Most of them build houses around Dongchen Village, forming a circle of community.

But there are still many wild bamboo forests outside the residential area. Even if one part is cut down, the other part is still luxuriant.

Chen Wan took Ying Bao to the wild bamboo forest, looking around from time to time.
