Mrs. Yipin's Farmer's Wife

Chapter 286: Moving (3)
Arriving at Yun's house with the washed apples, seeing the three of them chatting and laughing at Yan Yan, he was also happy, "Ah Yu, let's eat an apple first, it was given by my aunt in the village, and it was picked from the tree two days ago , very fresh."

"Yeah!" Xiao Yu was also polite.

Seeing his appearance, Liu Qiao guessed that he had a pretty good life these days, maybe their previous worries were overstated, Xiao Yu was not old, and Xiao Rong sincerely made up for it, and now there is no Mrs. Xiao, mother and son to stimulate her , he may be able to get out of the haze, "By the way, Ah Yu, I heard that you also took part in the county exam, have you passed?"

Although Fucheng is directly under the management of the state capital, students with household registration in Fucheng also have to take the county examination, just like other subordinate counties.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "No."

Liu Qiao was not surprised, "It's okay, you're still young, and it's your first time taking the exam."

"That's right." Yi Zhiyun also comforted, "I also passed the exam four times!"

"I know!" Xiao Yu said with a smile, "Master also said that I might not pass the exam this time, and I only went to the exam to gain experience, but I will definitely pass the exam next time!"

"It will definitely!" Yi Zhiyun didn't think it was impossible, Xiao Yu had a special teacher and professor, which was naturally much better than him in the school.

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Brother Yi will also come to congratulate me then?"

"Naturally!" Yi Zhiyun replied.

Xiao Yu took a bite of the apple, and then said: "By the way, Brother Yi, I have a few questions for this time I want to ask you!"

"Okay!" Yi Zhiyun replied.

Yun stood up with a smile, "You guys talk first, I'll go prepare dinner."

"Mother, it's still early." Yi Zhiyun said.

Yun said with a smile: "It's okay, it's rare for Ah Yu to come, so I'll prepare more dishes."

"Mother, let me help you." Liu Qiao said.

"Need not."

"Mother, just let me help. I'm so bored listening to the two scholars talking about studying!" Liu Qiao laughed.

Yun could only nod his head.

The congratulatory gifts sent by the villagers yesterday included meat and vegetables. Yun’s meat was marinated with soy sauce and preserved with salt. Come in handy.

Liu Qiao didn't tell Yun about setting up the banquet right away. First, he didn't want to pour cold water on her when she was happy. Second, since Yi Zhiyun was in charge of this matter, let him talk about it.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spent an hour cooking a sumptuous dinner, and found a jug of wine from among the gifts. Although it was not as good as last time, it still added to the fun.

After drinking and eating, Yi Zhiyun and Xiao Yu went to his house, and Liu Qiao and Yun Shi cleaned up. Not long after, Yi Zhiyun came to call her.

"what's up?"

Yi Zhiyun didn't say, "You come first." After saying that, he took her by the hand and went to his room.

Xiao Yu sat in front of the square table, and stood up when she saw her coming, with a slightly embarrassed expression.

"What's wrong?" Liu Qiao wondered.

Yi Zhiyun looked at her, and then at Xiao Yu, "Let's talk."

Xiao Yu walked up to Liu Qiao, then raised her hand and handed Liu Qiao a red paper bag in her hand, said awkwardly: "Sister-in-law, this is a congratulatory gift that my father asked me to give Brother Yi."

Liu Qiao glanced at the red envelope in his hand, yes, it was the red envelope during the Chinese New Year, but the one in front of her was much bigger than the one Liu Qiao received, and it seemed to have been opened, she didn't take it immediately, but looked at it. Xiang Yi Zhiyun, "This..."

"Your sister-in-law is in charge of all the family money." Yi Zhiyun looked at Xiao Yu, "She decides whether to take it or not."

Liu Qiao was a little surprised.

Yi Zhiyun turned his gaze to look at her, with a somewhat tangled expression, "Master Xiao's congratulatory gift is 500 taels of silver."

This time Liu Qiao's complexion became tangled, 500 taels?Another 500 taels?
Yi Zhiyun nodded slightly.

"Brother Yi... sister-in-law... are you still because of the previous incident..." Xiao Yu's expression darkened, "Don't worry, this money will never cause you any trouble! Brother Yi, this is ours A heart... If... If you are worried, forget it..."

"Ah Yu, I'm not..." Yi Zhiyun didn't know what to say, and it wasn't that he was bitten by a snake for ten years and was afraid of grass ropes, but this is not a small amount after all, and they are not important enough to make Xiao Rong spend so much money!

Liu Qiao looked at him, then at Xiao Yu, thought for a while, and said with a smile: "Since it's Lord Xiao's wish, of course we can't refuse."

Xiao Yu was pleasantly surprised.

Yi Zhiyun was also surprised, he thought she would refuse.

Liu Qiao took the red envelope from Xiao Yu's hand with a smile, and said with a smile: "The money came just in time, we are short of money!"

"Really?" Xiao Yu asked, his eyes sparkling.

Liu Qiao nodded with a smile, "Of course it is. Brother Yi has passed the county examination. According to the village rules, there is a banquet to celebrate, but we figured it out and found that there was not enough money. We originally wanted to postpone it, but now Since you are here, we don’t have to postpone it! Ah Yu, thank you!”

"No...no need!" Xiao Yu looked excited, "Just accept it...I thought you still remembered the previous things...just accept it!"

"We'll thank your father in person when your big brother Yi goes to the state capital to take the exam in September." Liu Qiao continued: "But this time you have to stay and eat the celebratory banquet before leaving!"

"Of course!" Xiao Yu nodded with a smile.

Liu Qiao put the red envelope in his arms, "You guys talk, I'll help my mother clean it up."

Yi Zhiyun looked at her and nodded.

That night.

Xiao Yu naturally occupied Yi Zhiyun's house, and after Liu Qiao came back from the bathroom, she saw that Yi Zhiyun's bedding took up half of her kang, but no matter whether she was in Qingshan County, Liuhe's house or in the city, The inn took care of Mrs. Zhang, and they both lived in the same room, and they were used to it.

Seeing her coming in with wet hair, Yi Zhiyun frowned, "Come here."

Liu Qiao naturally knew what he wanted to do, walked up to him with a smile, and handed him the towel in his hand.

Yi Zhiyun took it, and then wiped it for him, "Although it's summer, it's not good for you to wash your hair so frequently!"

"It's uncomfortable, so I wash it." Liu Qiao said, in fact, she has washed very little, and she can't wait to wash every day, but the conditions are not good, so she has to wash it once every three days.

Yi Zhiyun didn't continue talking about her, and couldn't say anything, so he had to wipe it off for her, "Why did you accept the 500 taels?"

"You don't want me to accept it?" Liu Qiao asked.

Yi Zhiyun shook his head: "No, but I thought you wouldn't accept it."

"I didn't know the situation last time, and I was also provoked by you." Liu Qiao smiled, "This time we know the reason, we also need money, so we will accept it naturally. Besides, although Xiao Rong said it was a congratulatory gift, he said After all, it is compensation. If we don’t accept it, maybe he will think that we still hold a grudge. If we worry about us leaking the news and retaliation against him, we will be out of luck. Accepting the 500 taels will solve our immediate problems and also It can make him feel at ease, why not do it? Besides, if we really don’t accept it, Ah Yu might feel uneasy.”
