"No, eating too much will make you get irritated." Li Mengyue sternly refused.

[No, I'm the system. Don't worry about me getting angry.] Unable to refuse outright, Li Mengyue could only turn a blind eye.

After Li came to her senses, she no longer stopped her daughter from going up the mountain.

Li Mengyue sometimes goes to the mountains on a whim, and usually goes to Xinghua Village for a walk whenever she has time. She leads a leisurely life every day.

Just half a month later, Li Mengyue came down from the mountain and saw a few more people at home.

One of them was a man in a long robe, sitting on a chair in a pretentious manner, with his legs crossed, holding a book in his hand, and pretending to read.

The moment Li Mengyue stepped into the yard, the man's eyes were not honest at all, and he looked at Li Mengyue intentionally or unintentionally.

He thought he was being very subtle, but he didn't know that even though Li Mengyue had changed her body, her senses were very sharp. She noticed the man's look the first time she saw her.

Without figuring out the other party's identity or knowing what the other party's purpose was, Li Mengyue remained calm. As usual, she handed the backpack to Li, told her what dishes she wanted to eat, and went back to her room to rest.

Old Lady Li stood beside him, holding a cup of water and asking if he was thirsty or wanted some water. She fanned him with a fan, and after a few strokes she asked, "Son, is the force of my fanning okay? Are you still hot?"

The man watched Li Mengyue enter the room, and reluctantly withdrew his gaze. He touched his chin with his hand, and his eyes, as big as green beans, rolled around. Anyone with a discerning eye could tell that he had some bad intentions.

He was immersed in his own thoughts when Old Lady Li spoke into his ear.

He closed the book and said impatiently, "Mom, it's not easy for me to come back. Can you give me some peace and quiet? Besides, reading requires quiet time. I can't concentrate if you keep asking me questions. Forget it, I'd better go back to my room to study."

When Mrs. Li heard her son's complaint, she didn't get angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Yes, yes, it's my fault. I'm leaving now, I'm leaving now."

The man ignored Mrs. Li. After seeing Li Mengyue, he touched his chin and laughed evilly, not knowing what he was thinking about.

After Old Lady Li walked away from her son, she saw Li and shouted, "When the third son comes back, make some more meat dishes tomorrow and steam an egg for my precious grandson and granddaughter."

Li saw her mother-in-law's face darken, and before she could object, she habitually agreed, "Yes."

After all, ever since she entered the Li family, she would give Li Jian the first bite of any food at home.

If Li Jian doesn't like to eat it, it will fall into the mouths of Old Man Li and Old Lady Li.

In addition, because Li Jian was studying, most of the family's money was spent on Li Jian. The biggest role of the first and second wives was to earn money to support Li Jian's studies.

My mother-in-law often said that when the third son passed the imperial examination and became a high-ranking official, you can just wait and enjoy the good life.

The father-in-law also conceded that the third son would pass the exam, and felt that the efforts of the eldest brother and husband were justified. After all, the third son became an official, and they, as the older brothers, would definitely benefit from it.

Now their efforts are equivalent to advance investment. With the third child's qualifications, it is only a matter of time before he passes the exam.

The two families didn't know when the third child would pass the exam, but it was true that they hadn't had a single day of peace since the third child went to study in a private school.

Because for a family like theirs, it is very difficult to support one person's education. Not to mention how much the tuition fee is, the cost of pens, ink, paper and inkstone is also a huge expense.

Their family can afford to send the third child to school. My husband said that in the first seven or eight years, money was not that tight.

But as the third child read more and more, the books he bought became more and more expensive, and the family's money was spent completely. Eighty acres of the one hundred acres of land were sold, and the harvest from the land was also sold to pay for the third child's tuition and buy pens, ink, paper and inkstone.

But even so, the third child is already 30 years old and still hasn't passed the exam. I don't know when he will be able to pass it.
