Chapter 44

Seeing Aunt Zhang's hesitation, Yuan Qiu said again: "Auntie, you also know that we are not short of money now, this is nothing, Yuan Hao and I will go to the mountains to dig wild vegetables and sell them, and we can make money."

Aunt Zhang saw that Yuan Qiu wanted to give it wholeheartedly, so she didn't refuse any more, she readily accepted it, and said with a smile: "In this case, then you two's bodies will be wrapped around me, and I will definitely raise you up for nothing. "

Yuan Qiu hurriedly waved his hands: "Don't, I don't want to become a fat man who walks like a duck."

Everyone laughed happily. Aunt Zhang wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes with a smile. She looked at Yuan Qiu and said, "You child, after only a few days, why did your face become so white? But you put powder on it?" said Then he pinched Yuan Qiu's cheek with his hand.

Yuan Qiu said with a smile: "Auntie, I have always been very white. I used to wipe the ash from the bottom of the pot to make it look black."

Aunt Zhang gave her a white look: "You silly girl, this white and tender look is so pretty, why do you want to wipe the bottom of the pot?"

"If this is not the case, how can we see people's hearts for a long time?" Yuan Qiu pointed out, with a wry smile on his face, trying to express all the expressions that were shown in place.

Aunt Zhang sighed and shook her head, with a weird smile on her face: "Then Liu Wenxuan's betrayal of you is because he has no vision, so you don't have to take it too seriously, he thought he lost sesame seeds and picked up watermelon, hmph—he will suffer in the future day."

Yuan Qiu was puzzled: "How do you say that? Then Jiang Chunyan is the daughter of the village head, and she went to school, and she is literate. How could she give him a hard time?"

Aunt Zhang snorted again, rolled her eyes looking in the direction of Liu Wenxuan's house outside the window, and said with a sneer, "What's the use of knowing how to read and write? We are here in Xipo Village, and the people in Xipo Village are all Whose girls don’t have to work in the fields for a living? Just recite a poem at home and get it right? Jiang Chunyan has never been in the field, and she doesn’t plan to do such rough and heavy work in the future. I'm afraid I can't even cook, and I really have raised a girl who was ordered by me to become a young lady, and I will suffer in the future."

"But Liu Wenxuan has already been selected as a scholar. When he wins Juren in the future, he can be an official. Then Jiang Chunyan is the wife of an official, so why do these things?" Yuan Qiu said.

Aunt Zhang shook her head again: "You, you are so naive. Is this Juren so good? Others don't know the details of Liu Wenxuan, but I know it very well. I was working in the town, and when I said that Liu Wenxuan from our village was selected as a scholar, he immediately curled his lips, saying that Liu Wenxuan was not selected in the first place, but he was named after some dredging. Think about it, Lian Xiucai It all needs some dredging to make it happen, so it’s his turn to get a job? Take another ten thousand steps and say, even if he wins a job, he may not be able to get an official job. In this town and county, there are so many people who go back to their hometowns to run private schools Yes, it’s not that there is no back door to go, and there is no large amount of gold and silver to clear it, so they are reduced to return to their hometowns, and there are many such things.”

Aunt Zhang swallowed a sip of tea, and continued: "That's why Liu Wenxuan married the village chief's daughter, because he knew that it was very likely that he would have to stay in Xipo Village in the future. It's easier, but he never thought that someone like Jiang Chunyan will only bring him a burden and will never help his life in any way."
