Ever since his face had been ruined by the mushroom soup, the fourth Eldest Brother of the Tian Family had never stepped out of the door or stepped inside. He had lived his life like a girl from an ancient family.

This made Madame Li extremely depressed, and she nagged him all day: "Hey, the day before yesterday, Fourth Brother's classmate came to look for him, and said that there was a classmate in the town who was going to hold a poetry gathering. Fourth Bro will be taking the Elementary Scholar examination to become a government official in the future, and his classmates will be future Elementary Scholars as well. It's inevitable for him to walk around in the ordinary world. "

Old Master Tian said, "Don't just go along and ask for a heart of gold. What's the use of blindly saying it like that?" is not going to solve the real problem. "

"Yes, Mother. Look at my face." That day, I only drank a single mouthful of soup from a flower bowl, and it ended up in this state. Didn't you hear yesterday? Madame Gao pouted.

When Tian Guihua thought about what Widow Li had said to Lady Gao next door, she could not help but burst out laughing. She even said to Lady Gao with a look of disdain, "Elder Sister-in-law, look at me and Fourth Brother. We both know that the goosebumps on our faces have yet to completely disappear. "Who's like you? You still dare to run around without a mask all day long. You can't blame that widow for scolding you."

"Alright, let's not talk about it anymore. If it wasn't for this matter, Fourth Bro wouldn't be so ashamed to go to the town to attend the poetry meet by his classmates. This is such a great opportunity to make friends with each other. Sigh, what a pity. " Elder Tian filled another bag with smoke. His brows were so wrinkled that he could pinch a fly to death.

"Father, Mother, if I were to tell you this, then this matter is all the fault of those two dead children from the second branch." "You say it's alright, but what are they doing? Why are they so adamant on picking mushrooms? In the end, they didn't even get to kill people, it's still us taking advantage of them." Gao Shi said.

When Madame Li thought of the matter from before, she couldn't help but be slightly afraid.

"No, I can't let Fourth Bro always be at home. This person who isn't sick, staying in the house all day long makes him sick from holding his breath." As Madame Li spoke, she put on her shoes and walked towards the study man's house.

"Fourth Bro, open the door, I'm your mother." Madame Li knocked on the door.

There was no sound of the door opening. Instead, the impatient voice of the scholar could be heard, "Mother, what are you doing now? I'm reading a book right now. Don't come over and disturb me if you have nothing to do. "

"Mom, Fourth Brother is reading a book right now, so you don't need to cause any more trouble." Tian Guihua quickly pulled Madame Li back.

"Get up, what do you know, little girl? Your fourth brother is going to do something big in the future, so you can't let him die in the house. Didn't Doctor Lin say last time that you guys can't hide your faces, and that you have to occasionally take a breather? " After Madame Li finished, she continued to knock on the door.

The scholar helplessly opened the door, allowing Madame Li to enter the room.

"Number four, your face is pretty much fine now. Mother wouldn't be able to notice it even if she didn't look at it closely. It's just that there's a little red mark on it. Go outside and take a breather, it's not too tight." Madame Li advised.

"Mom, don't talk about it anymore. With my current appearance, how can I meet people when I'm outside?" The student was a bit depressed.

"Oh right, it's a market in Ningguo Village today, and it's not too far away from our neighboring village. Mom plans on taking you and your sister there, and on the way, I'll buy some meat for both of you to eat." Madame Li began to use sugar-coated artillery shells.

It had been a long time since he had eaten meat, and even the young man could not help but lick his lips.

When Tian Guihua heard that she wanted to buy meat, she immediately changed her stance and grabbed onto the student's arm, shaking it as she began to act coquettishly, "Brother, let's go. We're in the next village anyway, what can we do? "Let me tell you, when the time comes, we just need to bring eldest sister-in-law along …"

The man's eyes lit up and he agreed. After a simple cleaning up, he changed into a moon-white muslin gown. It could already be considered a more respectable outfit.

"Hehe, little sister, you still have an idea." The bookkeeper patted his sister's head.

"Fourth brother, let's go. Oh, right, I'll go get eldest sister-in-law." Tian Guihua hopped and left with a smile.

"Hua'er, wait a moment. If you're going to the market, why are you asking your sister-in-law? " Madame Li asked with a puzzled expression.

Tian Guihua said, "Mother, don't tell me that you want to bring Sister-in-Law along with you?"

When Madame Li heard this, her face immediately darkened. As she thought about what she had heard from the outside, her heart was in a state of panic. She didn't know how much that despicable Third Elder's wife had cheated her of for so many years.

Hearing that the flowers wanted him to go to the market made Gao Shi extremely happy. The big fork was about to reach her ears.

On their way out, they coincidentally saw the Jiang Clan carrying a basin out to feed the chickens. Madam Gao even stuck out her chest with a complacent expression, "Aiya, although my looks aren't good, I'm still quite good at it. "Unlike some people, who rely on their mother-in-law's newness to pay back the family's silver coins when they go out."

The Jiang Clan's face turned red for a moment and then white for a moment. At this moment, they were at a loss of what to say, because the news had already spread throughout the village. Who knew what kind of damned long-tongued woman was so good at blaming people.

Lady Li, Lady Gao and Tian Guihua each had a bamboo basket on their arm, while the bookkeeper leisurely followed behind them with a fan in his hand.

The day was not hot at all, and he still wanted to act like a scholar. No matter how he looked at it, it didn't seem like it was the right thing to do. However, in the eyes of Lady Li, being able to go to the market with her own student was definitely a great honor for her.

On the way, there were many nearby villages that came to catch up with the market. After all, the stronghold of Ningguo was in the vicinity and could be considered to be a relatively large and prosperous village.

Someone on the way knew Madame Li, so they greeted her with a smile. In the end, Madame Li pulled her son along and introduced him to everyone with a smile, "This is our fourth son. He rarely comes out with us, he wants to study and will be taking the Elementary Scholar exam next year."

"Oh, is that so? This is amazing, I didn't expect your family to have an Elementary Scholar, tsk tsk, this is great. "

"By the way, did your reading boy say he was happy? "Our village has a daughter who looks like Zhou Zheng." A warm-hearted woman said.

When Madame Li heard this, she immediately felt her face light up, but her head was shaking like a rattle drum.

This won't do. In the future, our fourth son will be taking the exam and going out to be a big official. I can't tell him about a country girl. No matter what, we have to find a county or a city lady." "Madame Li's face was filled with pride.
