Nongmen ruffian concubine: ploughing the fields, planting buns

Chapter 672 Gaining Time

"And because his concubine and the main wife blamed each other for not taking good care of him, they have been non-stop recently, and the concubine's body flashed..."

"I see." Ding Shitou nodded.

No wonder I have no time to come out and dance. It turned out that I was too proud to accept the test results, and the backyard of my house caught fire again. It is strange that I am not sick.

"It's strange that a farm scholar dares to take a concubine if he wants to study." Jiang Lusheng couldn't help shaking his head beside him.

I've never heard of anyone in the Xia family taking concubines before. After all, the two villages are not far away, so such news will definitely spread far.

But he has never heard of running a grocery store, obviously he was hired recently.

It is not difficult to understand that the township examination is coming and there is still the desire to take a concubine.

Everyone smiled and said nothing more tacitly.

After Liu Xuegui left, Ding Shitou whispered something.

"Last year, the old scholar had a big birthday, but there was a big banquet, and even I was invited there temporarily. Now our village chief's grandfather is celebrating his birthday, but they don't come. They are really scholars."

Ding Shitou muttered in a low voice, as if he was afraid of being heard, but there was a woman from Nancheng Village sitting at a table nearby, listening to the conversation with his ears open.

"That's right, a year ago...a year and a half ago, wasn't Old Master Xia celebrating his birthday? I remember that our village head went to have a birthday feast."

So soon, the table began to discuss.

Women never lack gossip at gatherings, and as soon as the yelling started, so many people in Jiangxia Village sitting in the yard naturally remembered what happened a year ago.

And Ding Shi, as the master of Jiujiu School, heard that Xiaoxia Xiucai's servants drove a carriage to force him to pick him up, and he didn't even let him go to class. They all heard about it later.

Also because of this incident, everyone's memories of that day naturally came to mind. The old village head of Nancheng Village was at the banquet at that time, how could he forget?

Since the head of Nancheng Village went to Mrs. Xia's birthday banquet, why didn't the head of Nancheng Village see Xia Xiucai's family for his birthday party?

No wonder Ding Shi from Jiujiu School said with emotion: You are really a scholar.

It's a loss of face for a scholar, such a disrespectful behavior is also thanks to a scholar's family.

So the people in Jiangxia Village also felt ashamed, and kept silent in embarrassment, without arguing for the scholar's family.

Ding Shitou smiled, without saying a word.

She did it on purpose just now, and the purpose was to let the gossiping women at the table hear, so naturally she doesn't need to participate in the future, even if Xia Jiaxiu questioned her afterwards, she could refute.

You don't come to be a guest to repay favors, and you blame others for talking?
Of course, Ding Shitou dared to be so blatantly provocative, because he knew that the Xia family's third scholar had failed the provincial examination, so he deliberately stepped on it.

Who made them so arrogant in the past, that they thought they were great and arrogant after only taking the exam for a scholar.

Jiujiu School has produced so many children at once, if the Xia family has no pressure, it must be a fake.

It was as if a lot of little tigers had been born overnight, and now they looked harmless, but they would soon grow into a very threatening big tiger.

Before that, the monopoly of Jiangxia Village School had already been broken by Jiujiu School in Nancheng Village.

Ding Shi and Zhao Chen's couple have become the true scholarly models with complete morality and integrity in the minds of countless peasants.

Everyone was discussing and comparing the two schools, but no one knew what was really happy in Ding Shitou's heart.

No one in the Xia family passed the exam, and it will be three years before the next township exam.

That is to say, in the past three years, the Xia family has no room for improvement, but the Jiujiu School has two chances for the hospital examination.

The failure of the Xia family also gave Jiujiu School a chance. Maybe when there are really talented people here, the Xia family will still be a talented person.

Hahaha... This is the happiest place in Ding Shitou's heart.

At that time, let's see how arrogant Xia's father and son will be.
