The Petite Wife of the First Family

  Chapter 43 The Sad Scholar

   As the days went by, Xu Zhizhi taught the people in the village how to grow bean sprouts. The bean sprouts that everyone planted were not as delicious as those from the Xu family because there was no room for spring water.

   However, most of the villagers have not eaten the bean sprouts from the Xu family.

   Zuixianxiang Lou keeps coming up with new dishes, and the customers who order the boiled fish series are unstable, so I buy mung bean and raw bean sprouts.

  The bean sprouts produced by the villagers can only be eaten by themselves, and everyone believes that Xu Zhizhi is right. If they cannot be sold, they will be broken, and then they will lose money.

   But everyone's sweet potatoes are growing well. Xu Zhizhi taught everyone how to pick red leaves to make porridge and fry them.

  When she was teaching the aunts and sisters-in-law in the village, she picked them from her own fields.

   Xu Zhizhi's barren mountain is full of green, and everyone who envies regrets why his family didn't think to buy that barren mountain...

   But they also didn't think about it, that barren hills have been growing for decades.

  The foundation of Xu Zhizhi's house has been laid, and the house is being built in full swing. The master was invited from the town.

  The house is built according to the style designed by Xu Zhizhi.

   She originally thought that the construction would take place after the autumn harvest, but how could she know that the villagers were working so fast.

   Faster than a modern excavator, hehe! Mainly because there are many people who come to work.

   It is only the beginning of August, and there are still more than 20 days before the autumn harvest. During this period, the house can be built.

   She has been busy recently, looking at materials and buying materials, asking the master to prepare a series of preparations, and has no time to pay attention to other things.

   On the tenth day of the eighth lunar month, it is a good day for Qiu Dixian, and it is advisable to break ground.

  The construction of their house started. Father Xu could walk around with a cane. After Qiu Dixian worshipped the sky, he set off a firecracker.

   Father Xu moved the first hoe, and everyone started to work.

   Everyone performs their duties, because the Xu family has a good life, high wages, and everyone is very motivated.

   The first day of work is to invite relatives and friends to dinner.

   Now that Xu Zhizhi’s family has money, he invites the whole village to eat, and a few people in the village who usually have a good relationship with Xu’s mother come to help.

  Xu Zhizhi has nothing to do today, what should be prepared is already ready.

   She leisurely watched a few cousins ​​and those aunties wash vegetables, cut meat, and gossip.

  Xu Honghua, as always, waits for dinner to come to eat, and every meal will not be missed.

   After chatting, she let her eat a really big melon.

  The incident happened a few days ago. Jin Zijun was going to participate in the autumn festival. Because he had no money, he went to the Wang family to find Wang Shishi.

  But Wang Shishi went back to Los Angeles a few days ago. Jin Zijun had been studying in the academy during the exam preparation period and didn't know about it. How could he bear it when he learned that the fairy he admired had sneaked away.

   He was desperate because he didn't have the money to take the exam, and what was even more desperate was that the woman he loved abandoned him and left.

   That kind of despair is the best in the world…

   In the end, it was the village chief and the clan elders in the village, who asked the villagers to piece together 12 taels of silver for him to take the test.

  The object of their gossip, Jin Zijun is now crowding with beggars~

   Jin Zijun went to take the exam with ten taels of silver in his pocket. First, he took an ox cart to the county seat, and then began to take a horse carriage from the county seat to Hengzhou Prefecture. He had to eat all the way, and he needed money everywhere. Later, he could only buy a bag of buns and go all the way.

   At this moment, Jin Zijun was in a dilapidated temple that was only able to shelter from the wind and rain. He was reading with a book in one hand, and a dry bun in the other hand that he didn't know how many days it had been in.

   From time to time, I put it into my mouth to take a bite, and when it was difficult to swallow, I picked up another bowl with a missing mouth and drank the water in it.

The water is cold, accompanied by the cold dry buns, choked him to keep coughing. He also reads books from time to time. The exam is about to be taken. The more books you read, the more you learn. This time he must be in the middle. .

   After winning the juren, you can receive the silver taels and rice oil that the yamen fixed, so that his mother and son will not starve!

  The top three scholars also have collars, but he ranks in the top ten...

   Outside there were beggars who came back from begging, holding meat and steamed buns from begging, and saw Jin Zijun reading a book in a corner of the ruined temple.

   A beggar said strangely: "Is this a beggar or a scholar? Look at this look like a scholar, how can it eat worse than us?"

   Another beggar said: "Who knows! We can't control ourselves, how can we control others."

   After a few beggars were full, they went out to beg and returned to the temple very late.

The next morning, Jin Zijun left the ruined temple and entered Hengzhou Mansion with a bookcase and two changes of clothes on his back. He came early, and there were still five days before the exam, but the inn was too expensive, so he looked for it again. A ruined temple, to deal with a few days.

   The exam is going to start tomorrow, he has to find an inn to get a good night's sleep, wash up, and then go to the exam.

   looked for one house after another, either too expensive or full, and finally found a relatively remote inn, asking for twenty copper coins, Jin Zijun asked if there was anything cheaper.

   The shopkeeper saw that this man was dressed in dirty clothes, but he was still neat, but he was handsome, and twenty copper coins were too expensive! How poor is this student's family!

   In the end, the shopkeeper said that the 18 copper plates could not be lower, so he stayed and finally asked for some hot water from the kitchen.

   But he was lying on the bed tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep, all Wang Shishi was in his mind.

   took him to the gate of the town academy and gave him money, and said to him tenderly:

   [Brother Zijun concentrates on his studies, this money will replenish your body, buy whatever you want to eat, and I will prepare the money for you to go to the state capital to take the exam. 】

  Otherwise, he wouldn't be generous enough to invite his classmates to dinner in the end without spending a penny left.

   And in the bamboo forest, the sweetness of the lips, the softness of the embrace...

   He liked her so much, but she cruelly left without saying goodbye.

   He also thought of Xu Zhizhi, although he was vulgar, but since he got engaged to him, he obeyed every word, and his eyes always followed him.

   watched him smirk with fascination and admiration, served him and his mother without any regrets, and gave willingly.

   But after retiring, he didn't even look him in the eye!

  People in the village said that she was touched by the gods.

   With the help of the gods, people have changed a lot.

   Was it really the fairy who inspired her? Now the family not only bought mountains, but also planted a lot of delicious red signs, and also built a house!

   [That's not really the credit of the gods, the gods are also very busy, who can't care about the sufferings of the world, but the core has been replaced by another person. 】

  Wang Shishi is so beautiful, like a fairy in the sky descending to earth, and Xu Zhizhi is a vulgar village girl, what's wrong with him choosing Wang Shishi~~

   [The brain circuit of the scumbag is different, and it is others who are wrong! 】

   But he hated Wang Shishi very much at this moment. If she hadn't seduced him and gave him hope, he wouldn't have resigned from Xu Zhizhi so quickly.

   Then he wouldn't have crowded the temple with beggars because he had no money a few days ago...

   Jin Zijun tossed and turned, unable to sleep for a while.

   There are many things in my heart, and my heart has thousands of knots, and I can't solve it.

   and Wang Shishi, who was hated by him, can be said to be proud of the spring breeze now.
