Chapter 1427: It's really hard to accept
Ma and Uncle Shao said something each...which made Zhao Shu dumbfounded!
Zhao Shu almost doubted whether they were Shao Xiaozhi's biological parents. The Shao family was not so poor that they had no choice but to give their own daughter to someone as a concubine. What were they thinking?
Besides, Shao Xiaozhi is Shao Yunduan’s cousin. Doesn’t she care about her dignity at all?
Zhao Shu was full of contempt in his heart, and then he silenced them with one sentence: "It seems that your son is going to take the imperial examination, become an official, right? If he becomes an official, and has a sister who is a concubine of a merchant family, aren't you afraid that it will have a bad impact on his reputation? I can't afford to marry a sister of a Jinshi official as a concubine to serve my wife!"
"Don't mention this matter again!"
Ma and Uncle Shao were stunned. They were annoyed by Zhao Shu's last words, but secretly proud of their son's achievements, as if their son had already become a high-ranking official!
However, the couple finally gave up the idea.
Ma also advised Shao Xiaozhi: "…When your brother passes the imperial examination and becomes an official, you can marry into any good family. Why do you have to marry this Mr. Zhao? By then, you can even be an official's wife! I don't think this Mr. Zhao is any good. He is a businessman and looks down on people!"
Shao Xiaozhi cried. Although she still loved Zhao Shu in her heart, she also took Ma's words to heart.
Because she thought of Taotao. Taotao must marry an official in the future, right? Then it would be nice for her to marry an official too. Maybe her husband would be more capable than Taotao's husband, and Taotao would have to bow to her in the future!
Thinking of this, Shao Xiaozhi finally felt a little relieved.
But, it's still hard to accept.
Whenever she met Zhao Shu, she would look at him with a dark, gloomy, accusing look, which made Zhao Shu feel his scalp tingling from a distance, and then he would run away, avoiding her in various ways.
Isn't this a lunatic?
baffling!
This caused Taotao to misunderstand and she was cold to him for two days. He had to explain it to her with great difficulty to calm her down.
After that, Zhao Shu left Shaoding Village.
After he left, Shao Xiaozhi felt lost. Thinking that she might never see him again, she was really sad for two days.
Taotao was even more worried. She missed him, but she didn't know what her fifth brother and his wife would think... She felt that she liked Mr. Zhao very much, but she also had to listen to her fifth brother and his wife.
After all, she didn't understand anything. She only knew that the choice made by her fifth brother and his wife must be the best for her.
It would be great if we could have the best of both worlds...
In the capital, half of February has passed in the blink of an eye.
When the sun is out, the weather is already very warm. From afar, the grass is covered with shadowy tips of green. Many flowers and trees are full of buds, waiting for the spring breeze to bloom overnight...
Although it is still chilly in spring, farmers have already started to get busy.
After a winter, the wheat has grown taller and taller, green as clouds, and the land in the vegetable garden has begun to be prepared for planting various vegetables and other crops.
Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan went to the farm and asked Song Shi to arrange the farm work.
It is not yet the time to plant potatoes. Although Qiao Xuan has the wood-related ability and can plant them, there are many to be planted in the imperial farm this year, so they have to wait for them to do so.
After the imperial farm has started planting, we can start planting on our own farm.
So as to avoid attracting attention.
