Chapter 406: Even a ghost cannot be spared

Xiaomin's hometown is in the countryside. During the Qingming Festival last year, her uncles and brothers who worked in various places went to the countryside to sweep the graves of their ancestors.

When she was burning paper money for her great-grandparents, she discovered that her uncle was burning books for his father.

She thought that her ancestors had never produced any educated people, so she leaned over to take a look and found that it was a new version of the civil service examination materials.

She asked her uncle why he was still burning this.

Her cousin said somewhat sadly that he had burned the documents once last year, but he didn't know whether his father passed the exam. Now there is a new version of the information this year, so he decided to burn another copy, just in case it might be useful.

If my father works hard and passes the exam down there, I can live out my parents' income with peace of mind.

Pang Xiaomin asked him, "Can the questions above and below be the same?" Her uncle said, "Just do your best and leave the rest to fate." If she really fails the exam, she can only blame her father for not working hard enough.

Then he burned a paper IPAD, saying that he was going to use it for his old father to take online classes in a training course.

Pang Xiaomin pinched her thigh hard to prevent herself from laughing out loud while visiting the grave.

She took out her cell phone and wanted to take a video, but her cousin sternly forbade her to do so, saying that if she posted it online and everyone knew about it, they would all learn how to pass the information down there, and then there would be a lot of curls down there, which would be very tiring for his father.

To be honest, her cousin is really filial.

We all felt that taking the civil service exam was something that no one could escape in Hedong Province.

Later, I was chatting with Xiao Shiqiu and told him this story as a joke. He said to me seriously, "When I die, you don't need to burn my civil service exam documents for me. Just burn my business license. I will go make money first and wait for you to spend it."

I was so moved that I said to him affectionately, "You don't have to work so hard. I'll just burn a truckload of paper money for you. It's enough for us to spend for several lifetimes!"

"No," he said seriously. "Issuing currency recklessly will cause severe inflation and disrupt the underworld's financial system. It's more reliable for us to earn the local currency ourselves."

I:"……"

With his sense of social responsibility, he could probably become a National People's Congress representative if he went down to the countryside.

Just after having dinner with Xiao Shiqiu in the evening, Wen Qi called.

"Ms. Xia, the study tour guide you requested has been prepared. For a group of eight, our club can arrange a round-trip charter flight, provide a vehicle to pick you up after landing, and arrange a local tour guide.

The hotel will be ready for booking once you confirm your departure date. The plan has been sent to your email. Is there anything else you need?"

It was so thoughtful. At that moment, I deeply realized the benefits of being a rich person. After spending money, I only needed to make a phone call and someone would help me get things done quickly and well.

"No need, thank you~" I hung up the phone with a smile on my face.

"You've become smarter now and can let others help you with things." Xiao Shiqiu looked at me with a little more approval in his eyes.

"When it comes to being lazy, I'm always good at it." I felt a little proud.

"Yes, that's how you should do it in the future. You can't do everything yourself. You should learn to let others do things and never do it yourself." He highly praised my lazy behavior.

This goes against the education I received since childhood. My mother has always instilled in me that if I can do something myself, I should never bother others.

After being with Xiao Shiqiu, I felt like I was going through a process of re-education. I suspected that he wanted to ruin me, but this kind of life was so happy.

Just like now, I was lazily lying on the sofa like Ge You, and I was acting like a spoiled child to him: "Lao Xiao, can we take a helicopter to the court tomorrow?"

"Okay~" Before he finished speaking, his cell phone rang. He glanced at the caller and answered it. "Hello, Ayi, what's up?"
