Chapter 636: Solemn Warning
He no longer cared about Shao Yunduan's bad attitude, and just thought that he was in a bad mood and could be forgiven.
Shao Liulang did not doubt the truth of this statement at all. After all, Shao Yunduan had been kicked out of Minghua Academy. Without the guidance of a teacher, and unable to exchange ideas with others, he was completely in the dark like a headless fly.
Under such circumstances, what qualifications does he have to take part in the Autumn Examination?
Even if you go, you'll just be there to make up the numbers and there's no chance you'll pass.
It's a waste of money, why?
Although Shao Liulang left with satisfaction, Shao Yunduan still didn't dare to take it lightly. He still had to explain what needed to be explained and keep what needed to be kept secret.
He said solemnly to Uncle Shao, "Dad, you must not mention the fact that I am going to the provincial capital to participate in the Autumn Examination to anyone in the Second and Third Houses. Many people in the academy are jealous of me. If they knew that I was going to participate in the Autumn Examination, there is no guarantee that they would not cause trouble. I have never asked Dad for anything, just this once, please don't tell anyone!"
Uncle Shao was a little disapproving. "Now that you've said that, I certainly won't tell anyone else about this, but do I have to keep it a secret from my family too? Just tell them not to tell anyone else. My family won't harm you!"
"Dad," Shao Yunduan knew his father would be like this, his voice was cold: "I'm not kidding you, if more people know about it, the secret is no longer a secret! Dad, do you want to harm me, or do you want to harm our family?"
Uncle Shao looked grim: "You - is it that serious?"
"Yes. It can be even worse than this. You don't understand these things!"
Mrs. Qiao is a vicious woman who relies on her position as a local official. Who would she take seriously in Heshan County?
Fang became annoyed, "What's wrong with you? Why would Duan'er say that if it's not a serious matter? I don't understand why, but I believe Duan'er if he says it! You don't believe it? How dare your son do something reckless? If you don't tell them about this, what will be the impact on them? What harm will it do? Duan'er is about to take part in the autumn examination, and you still want to go against your son at this time? I tell you, if anything really happens because of your talking too much, we'll divorce! I won't live with you! Anyway, the children are grown up, so we might as well separate early and let me live alone!"
Anyway, her sons won't ignore her.
Uncle Shao was a little embarrassed by her retort, "Alright, alright, just don't say it, it's really that serious."
Uncle Shao left angrily.
Fang said to Shao Yunduan, "Don't pay attention to him. Don't worry, I will keep an eye on him and will never let him say anything nonsense."
Shao Yunduan nodded: "Thank you for your hard work!"
The Shao family's main house is very big, and Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan have their own yard. They rarely show up in front of the villagers on a daily basis. The two left quietly and no one noticed.
The news that Shao Yunduan would not take part in the autumn examination quickly spread throughout the village.
There were those who gloated over Shao Yunduan's misfortune, those who laughed at him, those who made all kinds of absurd guesses, those who were certain that Shao Yunduan would not pass and that was why he did not take the exam, and there were also those who expressed genuine concern and regret.
Some people even came to visit and inquire about this matter, expressing their great curiosity.
This was not a glorious matter, and Fang's face was not looking very good, and she did not seem to want to answer. Therefore, most of the people who came to ask her would just say a few words, such as "Think positively!", "You can still take the exam later if you are ready!", "It's a pity!", and so on, and then leave.
