My husband is born again

Chapter 137
Liu Caiyun's eyes fluttered, and she waddled away.

Ruan Ling looked at her back, narrowing her eyes slightly.

……

In the evening, Pei Shu came back with his prey, and there was a little white fox, who was only three or four months old, like a puppy, with black eyes, really cute.

Ruan Ling held it in her arms, reluctant to let go.

Pei Shu said: "Raise it and make a fox fur scarf for grandma in winter."

The little fox trembled, and burrowed into Ruan Ling's arms.

Ruan Ling glared at Pei Shu: "Don't kill it!"

"I can do whatever I want with my prey," Pei Shu said.

"Mother!" Ruan Ling immediately went to Yun Pei to complain, "I want to raise it, is that okay?"

"Okay." Yun Pei was busy in the kitchen, she didn't take it seriously, and responded casually.

"But Pei Shu wants to kill it to make a scarf!"

"Haha..." Yun Pei laughed, "Don't pay attention to him, he deliberately angered you. You told him to kill him, how dare he. Isn't it?"

Yes, Pei Shu said dizzily.

Ruan Ling hugged the little fox and told Pei Shu a lie.

"Suggestion." Pei Shu mocked her.

"You go and sue!"

"I'm not as naive as you!" Pei Shu went to the kitchen to greet Yun Pei, "Mother, I had dinner with Ziyun on the mountain, and I'm going to study in the wooden house tonight."

"Isn't it okay to rest at home for a few days when you're injured? You just can't be idle." Yupei shook her head, "You won't take the exam until next spring, so what's the rush now."

"Sir, you can't slacken off reading for a day. Mom, I'm going." Pei Shu went back to the house to get a few books, and carried them out.

Ruan Ling hugged the little fox and asked Yun Pei: "Mother, where does Pei Shu study?"

"He, he studied in the village school in the village before, but he has already passed the entrance examination, so there is no need to go again, just study at home and wait for Chunwei." Yun Pei laughed.

"Students? Is it a student from the county?"

"Yes, a student in the county school." Yun Pei smiled.

Ruan Ling understood a bit: "Is it the kind where the imperial court enshrines rice grains and silver coins?"

"Yes." Yun Pei said.

No wonder.

There are also several types of students. The best grades are called granary students. The imperial court provides subsidies such as money and food, and they are also exempted from corvee. Ordinary local officials cannot punish them at will.

It can be said that the status is much higher than that of ordinary people.

Before, Ruan Ling wondered why the life of the Pei family was better than that of other families.

It turned out to be Pei Shu's credit.

"Pei Shu is pretty good." Ruan Ling boasted.

He wasn't here anyway.

Yun Pei said with a smile: "He, sometimes he is very lazy. He just took the exam because he can be exempted from corvee and don't have to kneel down to the officials."

"This is enough to make people envious." Ruan Ling said.

Zhu Ziyun was a child student, and if he hadn't passed the entrance examination, he would not have these benefits at all.

This is the only way for ordinary people from poor families to stand up.

Mrs. Pei came back from a walk with a cane, "Pei, is the meal ready? I'm hungry."

"Mother, you wash your hands and sit down, it will be fine soon." Yun Pei replied.

Ruan Ling put the little fox on the ground, and went to support Mrs. Pei, "Grandma, you are tired from walking, I will support you."

"Not tired, not tired." Mrs. Pei said with a smile, "Walking is so good, it's better than sitting all day. Where did this puppy come from?"

The little fox raised his head.

Ruan Ling smiled and said, "This is the little fox, brought back by Pei Shu."

"Oh, let's keep it, it's still young." Mrs. Pei walked slowly to the main room and said to her, "I just heard that Ziyun is going to marry the eldest girl of Widow Fan's family."
