The Husband I Snagged Halfway Is Off

With both parents deceased, Yu Tingwan lived under others' roofs, diligently working from dawn till dusk. Her maternal aunt was cruel, intending to sell her to a lecherous gentryman well past s...

120. Chapter 120: Dirty at a Glance

Chapter 120 It's dirty just by looking at it .

I don't know where she learned these nonsense words from.

Yu Tingwan's eyes were indifferent.

Zhao's daughter looked up at her: "Sister Wan."

She walked over, touched the little girl's head, and took out a handful of fried pumpkin seeds made by Hui Niang from her arms and gave it to her.

This pit didn't cause any trouble, so she simply ignored it, picked up the stone bench and put it somewhere else.

The Zhao family was just in front, and the two houses were close to each other, with only a small path for one person to walk in the middle.

Worried about her daughter, Madam Zhao sat at the door with her shoes in her hands. She looked at the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with a smile.

"Are you going out?"

Yu Tingwan smiled back: "Yes, I just wanted to ask my sister-in-law to recommend where to buy suitable clothes in our county."

Madam Zhao knew this matter best.

"Then you've asked the right person."

"The Xiantai Cloth Shop on Dongyuan Street has good materials and a complete range. I bought them all there."

"If you need to wear them in a hurry, you have to buy ready-made clothes. Go to the Li's Clothing Shop on Dongguan Street. The clothes there are finely made and affordable."

Yu Tingwan: "Li's?"

She tried to think: "Is it opened by a mother-in-law and daughter-in-law?"

Zhao Niang was surprised: "How do you know? The mother-in-law has poor eyesight, but she is very good at making clothes. She can sew with her eyes closed. If she looks back and finds that the size of the clothes she ordered is not right, she can even change it for you on the spot."

"It's not far from Dongyuan Street. If you are free, you can go to both houses to have a look."

Yu Tingwan wrote them down one by one.

Hui Niang was carrying a backpack and heard people talking in the next room, so she asked casually.

"Are there guests at home?"

Zhao Niang's smile faded a little.

"A teacher came. He was a classmate of my husband in the early years." They

even took the imperial examination together.

But Master Zhao was devoted to studying and never liked Master Chu, who was too cunning.

The two families have not had a deep relationship over the years, and they seldom visit each other during festivals. It was only these few days when they helped at the post station that they got in touch.

Thinking of this, Madam Zhao felt particularly troubled: "I heard someone want my man to accept a student under his name."

Master Zhao refused without

a second thought. But Master Chu kept a low profile and was unwilling to leave. After all, it was someone else's business, and Hui Niang didn't feel embarrassed to ask again.

Yu Tingwan didn't say anything, but frowned after leaving the alley.

Judging from Madam Zhao's expression just now, she seemed to be not very welcome to the teacher who came to her door.

After getting along with each other for these days, the Zhao couple are both good people.

If Madam Zhao doesn't like him, I'm afraid that the teacher is not a good person.

If you accept a student, you have to take him with you and teach him personally. If there is one more person in the Zhao family, it's okay if they get along well, but I'm afraid there will be a lot of troubles in the future.

It was only half an incense stick after the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law left. Master Zhao sent Master Chu out of the door.

Master Chu bowed to him and said, "Brother Zhao, please stop. You don't have to send him off."

He smiled and said, "Then it's settled. I'll bring Yaozu here for you to see."

Master Zhao said calmly, "If he doesn't have the talent, I won't accept him even if you praise him to the sky."

"Of course, of course."

Master Chu said, "This kid's character and hard work are impeccable. If he wasn't good, I wouldn't send him to you."

Master Zhao didn't say anything else. After the people left, his face darkened and he sighed in annoyance.

"What's the matter? Did you agree?"

Madam Zhao put down the shoes in her hand.

"He kept asking for it and mentioned the friendship between his late mentor and classmates. I can't keep refutating him."

Master Zhao sighed.

"I heard that he is a very easy-going and motivated student, who can understand things very quickly. I'll meet him first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

He looked at his wife and said, "You know, we haven't had any Jinshi in the past few years, and even Juren are very rare."

After saying that, Master Zhao felt a little disappointed when he thought of Master Chu's words and deeds.

Just now in the room, Master Chu saw the poem he wrote.

It was the one that Wei Zhao said was bad.

Master Chu was amazed when he got it in his hand, and he kept sighing at his literary talent.

He praised him to the sky.

There was a real amazing element in it, but also a deliberate plot.

In the past, Master Zhao felt that it should be so.

He does write well.

But since being instructed by Wei Zhao, he has looked down on Master Chu.

It's okay that he can't write to this level, but he can't even tell whether it's good or bad. No wonder he has to teach in the town school for his whole life.

Master Zhao couldn't help feeling uncomfortable when he thought of this.

He glanced at the next door: "I haven't seen Brother Wei for a long time, I'll go over to see him."

Wei Zhao was resting with his eyes closed in the room at this moment.

He was half sitting on the couch, playing with a peace charm in his hand.

"Brother Wei, are you in the room?"

He heard Master Zhao's voice at the door.

Wei Zhao said listlessly: "No."

Master Zhao: "Then I'll come in."

Wei Zhao:...

So annoying.

It's okay for Yu Tingwan to be like this, Wei Zhao admitted his defeat, why are the people next door so unreserved.

Rong Di didn't find this yard well!

With a creaking sound, Master Zhao pushed the door open and entered.

"You look good today."

Wei Zhao ignored him.

Master Zhao took out a piece of rice paper from his arms.

"This is the poem I rewrote. Can you help me take another look at it?"

Wei Zhao glanced at it.

Master Zhao: "How is it? Have you improved compared to last time?"

Wei Zhao: "Snort."

Okay, Master Zhao knew the answer.

He was not angry. He

was even very comfortable at this moment, because the goose bumps that Master Chu had appeared on his skin had disappeared.

He came here just to make trouble.

People should be humble and ask for advice, and know their own shortcomings. Don't be flattered for too long and become ignorant of the depths of the world.

There are so many people who are better than him.

Master Zhao: "I may accept a student."

"When he comes here in the future, I will definitely bring him to visit you, and you can give me some advice later."

How could Wei Zhao have so much time?

Previously in the Imperial College, many young masters came to ask for advice, and Wei Zhao had to see how he felt.

Of course, he was particularly arrogant at that time, and nine out of ten times he said he was in a bad mood.

Recalling something, Master Zhao quickly added: "What a coincidence, that person is from the same village as you. I came here to ask you something."

After all, Master Chu always said yes to everything.

He always wanted to find out.

When you take a student, you must look at his qualifications, but more importantly, his character.

Otherwise, no matter how capable he is, if he is not upright, it will be a disaster for the people if he passes the exam and becomes an official in the future.

Isn't the recent incident at the post station a lesson?

"That person is called Hu Yaozu."

"The person who introduced him said that this boy is patient, likes children, and will definitely get along well with Nannan."

Wei Zhao narrowed his eyes and looked over slowly: "That's unfortunate."

"His family only likes sons."

Master Zhao: ? ? ?

"Don't bring him to my house."

"Why...what's wrong?"

"It's dirty when I look at it."

Master Zhao: !!!

Wei Zhao frowned: "I have to take a look..."

"What to look at?"

"Look to find a new house."

Master Zhao: !!!
