Chapter 32
People in Taohua Village no longer say Ah Li is a burden, they all say that she is the treasure of the Lin family. Since she came, the life of the Lin family has become better and better.

During the Chinese New Year period, people would come to Lin's house to visit every day, and they would praise Ah Li when they saw him.

Ah Li had no choice but to hide in Lu's house.

"Brother Ling, why do you think people change so much?"

Lu Qingling wiped the pastry crumbs from the corner of her mouth for her.

"what happened?"

"Those adults in the village used to ignore me when they saw me, but now they go to my house every day and hold me back."

"That's because they know how good the carp is."

"Brother Ling, do you think I'm okay?"

"of course."

"Then can you accompany me to watch the Lantern Festival Lantern Festival? I heard from my father that the city is very lively during the Lantern Festival."

"Li Li, go and play! Have fun, and I won't go."

Ah Li thought he didn't like the excitement, so he didn't ask any more questions, and went home after staying for a while.

Tomorrow is the Lantern Festival, Ah Li and his family are going to go shopping in the city for a day, and stay in the city for a night to watch the lantern festival.

She thought that Lu Qingling would be bored staying at home every day, so she planned to go with him.

After A Li left, Lu Yun asked Lu Qingling: "Why didn't the young master tell Miss A Li clearly? Although she is young, she is very smart. She should be able to understand."

"Forget it, anyway, I can only resist this matter by myself. If I don't resist this time, you give her all the things I prepared for Ah Li."

"Young master, don't say that, you will be fine."

Lu Qingling was born clear and bright at a young age, but at this moment her face was completely dead.

Early the next morning, Ah Li and his family packed up and were ready to go.

As soon as they walked outside the courtyard, the Lu family's coachman drove the carriage to the door.

"Master Lin, my young master asked me to take you to the county."

Lin Changlu quickly waved his hand, "No, no, it's too troublesome. We have a lot of people, so we can just take a bullock cart. Please go back and thank your young master for us."

"Master Lin, you can get in the car! The young master has specially ordered that you must be sent and picked up again. It is still cold, and he is afraid that Miss Ah Li will freeze. When I go back, the young master will be angry."

"This... that's fine! Thank you, brother."

Ah Li knew that her elder brother Ling was thinking of her in everything, so she was happily led into the carriage by Mrs. Pei.

When we arrived in the county, the lantern stage on the main street was all set up, just waiting for the night to fall.

The Lin family first went to an inn to settle down for the family to watch the lanterns at night with peace of mind.

At noon, I ordered some food at the inn, and went out for a walk in the street.

Lin Sanrong and Silang wanted to go to the book shop, so A Li took them to the book shop where they met Lan Qinxue before and planned to buy some books with his lucky money.

The adults in the family didn't care about them. The family used to be poor, and they wanted to spend a penny in half. Except for a few pennies for the new year, the four men never gave a penny at other times.

So Zhang and Yan didn't take back the big red envelope that Lu Qingling gave them this year, and let them distribute it themselves, because they knew that their children would not spend money recklessly.

As soon as they chose the books they wanted to buy, they met Lin Dabao and Lin Erbao who came out from the other side of the bookshelf, and they were accompanied by a few teenagers of similar age.

Lin Dabao looked at the names on the two books in Lin Sanrong's hand and said with a sneer, "Uncle, you don't really want to take part in this year's children's test, do you? Besides, do you have any money to buy the books? They won't be stolen from somewhere." Go! Haha."

Lin Dabao and the others ran to their aunt's house in the county to pay New Year's greetings and never returned to the village, so they didn't know anything about what happened in the village.

In their perception, Lin Sanrong and the others are poor ghosts, and they don't even have the money to send him to the county academy.

Lin Sanrong took a look at him and didn't say anything to him, so he took Ah Li and prepared to pay the bill.

Four Lang followed closely behind.

How could Lin Dabao miss the opportunity to humiliate them.

He stretched out a hand to stop Lin Sanrong.

Although the two of them are a generation behind, they are about the same age, both 14 years old.

"Lin Dabao, don't push yourself too hard, anyway, I'm also your uncle."

"What's the matter, uncle, as a junior, I just care about you, so don't overestimate your capabilities. You have only been in the village for a few years and you want to take the entrance examination for children's students. If you don't pass the examination, it will make people laugh."

The young masters who were traveling with Lin Dabao also made fun of Lin Sanrong from behind.

"If this boy can pass the exam after studying casually for a few years, wouldn't he be full of talents everywhere?"

"That's right, Brother Weikang is right, you should be down-to-earth."

Ah Li saw these people bullying her third brother, and said angrily: "My third brother will definitely pass the exam, and he will be No.1."

"Hahahaha"

"Hahaha……"

The people beside the bookshelf couldn't help laughing.

"You little girl is so innocent and cute. How can you say that you can pass the entrance examination as a child? Some people are five or sixty years old and take the entrance examination for a lifetime, let alone the first name."

The sneer on Lin Dabao's face became even more obvious, "Uncle, don't be fooled by this little girl's sweet talk, you have to recognize the reality!"

Lin Sanrong couldn't help holding Ah Li's hand tightly. He really wanted to beat Lin Dabao up, but reason overcame him. If he beats someone up and enters the yamen, he will be disqualified from the exam.

"Lin Dabao, you don't have to provoke me, and you won't be fooled. There is also an exam that I will definitely take. My Lili said that I can pass the exam, and I will definitely pass the exam."

"Since uncle is so confident, why don't we make a bet."

"What are you gambling?"

"If you can be admitted to Tongsheng, I will kneel down and kowtow three times for you."

"Heh, even if you don't bet, you should still kowtow to me, who made me your elder, change to someone more practical."

"Then if you can pass the Tongsheng exam, I will give you 50 taels of silver. If you fail the exam, how about giving me 50 taels of silver?"

"can."

"Then let's find a witness."

Ah Li pulled Lin Sanrong's hand and said, "Look for the shopkeeper uncle."

Lin Dabao glanced at Ah Li, "Smelly girl, this shop is run by people from Lanfu, how could the shopkeeper take care of poor people like you, forget it, I'd better find our master!"

At this time, the shopkeeper came out from the counter, smiled at Ah Li and said, "I won't get involved in other people's affairs, but since it's Miss Ah Li's matter, of course I have a duty to do so. You told us to take good care of you when we met you."

Ah Li looked at the storekeeper with a smile, "Thank you, Uncle Shopkeeper."

The shopkeeper of the bookstore went to bring paper, pen and ink with a smile on his face.

Lin Dabao and the others were all stunned, they never thought that the shopkeeper of the book shop was so familiar with this little girl.
