The daily life of a farm girl raising a family

On the horses galloping towards Sha Tin Village were two men wearing official uniforms.

The gongs and drums being beaten are also tied with red ribbons.

Zhao Yunxi looked at the two people galloping and suddenly thought of something.

He woke up Zhao Yuntong who was on the side, and then jumped down from the banyan tree.

"It seems like the messenger is here. Go to the fields and inform Aweng and the others."

Zhao Yuntong, who was still confused in the tree, saw his sister running away.

He reacted instantly, jumped off the tree, and ran towards the fields.

Zhao Yang, who happened to be delivering water to the fields, saw his running out of breath cousin and immediately shouted: "Wu Yu, you are running so fast, what's the matter?"

Hearing the shouts, Zhao Yuntong immediately looked back.

Seeing that it was the eldest cousin, Zhao Yuntong immediately held his thigh and panted: "Cousin, go and inform my father and Aweng.

Xiaojiu said that the person who announced the good news was here. "

Zhao Yang was stunned for a moment when he heard it, then turned around and ran into the ground the next second.

Looking at Old Zhao Tou who was harvesting rice in the field, Zhao Yang was already running and couldn't lift his legs.

Immediately shouted loudly: "Grandpa Third, Grandpa Third, come home quickly, the government official who announced the good news has arrived."

When Old Zhaotou in the field heard the news, his rickety back straightened instantly.

The sickle in his hand fell to the ground along his thigh.

After Zhao Youliang came to his senses, looking at his father's dull look, he quickly stepped forward and shouted softly.

The next moment, I saw Lao Zhao walking home with his head up and his feet up.

The people who were helping harvest rice in the fields saw all the Zhao family leaving.

In an instant, there was a roar like muffled thunder.

"Did you hear that? The person who announced the good news is here, right? The last time a government official came, the two children of the Zhao family were admitted as boys. So this time, they won't be admitted as scholars!"

"The designation is that only their children are taking the scientific examination. Come on, let's follow them and have a look. This can be said to be the first scholar in our Shatin Village."

"Did you hear that? The government official came to announce the good news. Their child has been admitted as a scholar. God, this is such a great joy!"

The two people who were riding towards the village entrance saw a little girl standing at the village entrance.

After getting closer, Zhao Yunxi looked at each other with the officer on the horse.

Oh, we are still acquaintances.

The black and sturdy yamen grinned and said, "Aren't you a child of the Zhao family? Why are you standing here?

By the way, go and inform your adults, we are here to announce the good news. "

Before Zhao Yunxi could ask any questions, the officer just said everything in one breath.

After hearing the words of preparation, Zhao Yunxi turned around and ran home.

Just halfway through, I met a family returning from the fields.

"Dad Aweng, I asked because he came to our house to announce the good news. Let's go home quickly and get ready!"

After hearing what his little granddaughter said, Lao Zhaotou, who was still able to control himself, suddenly felt a little weak in his feet.

He quickly asked his boss to help him walk home. The group of people following home instantly became noisy.

Zhao Yunxi was startled when he saw his grandfather's appearance.

Thinking of Fan Jin's story of passing the imperial examination, he quickly handed the water bag he had to his father and asked him to feed Lao Zhaotou a sip of water.

After drinking the water, Old Zhaotou slowly came back to his senses.

He immediately greeted: "Let's go home quickly. Change your clothes and tidy up the house."

The group of people rushed home quickly.

Zhou, who was turning rice in the yard, looked at the crowd of people behind Lao Zhaotou.

He said anxiously: "Old man, why are you all back? What happened?"

Looking sideways at his wife, Zhao Guangming showed a joyful smile on his wrinkled face.

He said with a smile: "Old lady, hurry up and go back to the house to change clothes. Our child has been admitted as a scholar."

Hearing the old man's words, Zhou's blood surged, her eyes darkened, and she took two steps back uncontrollably.

"Ah Rong."

"Grandma."

"mother."

There was chaos and chaos for a while, and Zhao Youcai helped his mother sit on the stool.

Zhao Yunxi stepped forward, fed water into Zhou's mouth, and took a sip of water.

Mrs. Zhou sat on the stool for a while before she regained her composure.

He looked at his wife with tears in his eyes and said, "Have you really passed the exam?"

When Old Zhaotou heard this, he looked at his little granddaughter, and Zhao Yunxi said with a smile: "Aunt, grandma, it's true. I met the government official who came to our house last time to announce the good news.

Let's change clothes quickly! The official who announced the good news was already on his way over. "

"Yeah"

After a group of people helped the old lady back to her room.

Then he quickly ran back to his room, quickly changed his clothes and washed his face.

A group of people stood neatly at the gate, and the villagers who followed were standing next to the steps.

Everyone looked towards the intersection with their eyes.

Old Zhaotou straightened his clothes and asked, "Old lady, are you ready for the red seal?"

Mrs. Zhou trimmed her hair and said with a smile: "Everything is ready, don't worry!"

After waiting for a long time, he saw the figure of the Yamen in the Zhao family's eager eyes.

"I'm coming."

The villagers were more excited than the Zhao family.

Zhao Youcai pointed forward excitedly and said: "Dad, here we come, here we come."

Looking in the direction of the intersection, the anxious Zhao family finally had a smile on their faces.

The villagers on the side kept saying congratulations.

Old Zhaotou said with a smile: "Everyone is happy and happy together."

In front of the Yamen, Zhao Youde ran over first.

"Third uncle, are you ready?"

Seeing Lao Zhao nodding his head, the two walked towards the Yamen.

The two cadres got off their horses and walked towards them with smiles on their faces.

Heizhuang's yamen officer said: "Brother Zhou, this is the old man who heads the Zhao family in Shatian Village."

The yamen in the middle showed a smile and walked towards Lao Zhaotou.

"Congratulations, old man. Mr. Zhao Yunzheng ranked tenth on the high school examination list."

The quiet people around suddenly burst into loud congratulations.

Listening to the announcer's words, Old Zhaotou's heart was beating happily.

After a long while, he said with tears in his eyes: "Thank you Mr. Cha, I share the joy."

Then he took out two red envelopes from his sleeves and handed them over.

Choking with sobs, he said, "Thank you for your hard work, sir. I have some tea at home. Please come home and have a drink to relieve your fatigue."

The officer in the middle pinched the red seal, and the smile on his face became more genuine.

"The old man and the old lady are so lucky. The child in the family will be admitted as a scholar, and the family will be completely changed in the next day."

Old Zhaotou said with a smile: "Then take advantage of Mr. Cha's good advice. If the child in the family has such a day, he will definitely come to thank Mr. Cha with generous gifts."

The group of people enthusiastically invited the Yamen in.

The villagers outside the house laughed and kept saying congratulations to the Zhao family.

Especially around Yang, many people planned to get married to Yang.

Her mother waved her hands and said, "The child has big ideas, everything depends on his own will."

Mrs. Zhou looked at the people in the village and said with a smile on her face: "Everyone is happy, but there is no time to prepare at home today. I will invite everyone to drink and have tea tomorrow."

"Okay, okay, Aunt Zhou, you are really becoming an old lady like this."

"Yes, yes. The children and daughter-in-law at home are filial, and the grandchildren are smart.

Grandma Zhou, will you ask Brother Yunzheng to help us more in the future? "

The others all agreed.

Mrs. Zhou then said: "Don't worry, we also live in Shatin Village.

As long as you have something serious to do, we will do our best to help you.

I won’t keep you all here today, I have to go in quickly to prepare food. Don't mind. "

"Auntie, you are busy. If there are not enough vegetables in the garden, go to my garden and pick them."

"Yes, yes, Auntie, I also have one in my garden."

Ms. Zhou nodded frequently and said, "Okay, we appreciate everyone's kindness. Thank you everyone."

Zhou's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law turned around and entered the house, and Zhao Yunxi was ready to follow.

I glanced at the intersection unintentionally, and the next second I shouted in surprise towards the yard.
