Chapter 72
Zhao Lan looked at the family in front of her with emotion.
She felt that she was really lucky to be able to marry into such a kind and simple family.
The second brother smiled and said, "Mom has agreed. You can just focus on studying with your sister. We are waiting for you and your sister to pass the college entrance examination and bring honor to our Li family."
Zhao Lan smiled brightly, not forgetting to tease her husband: "How do you know I can pass the exam? What if I don't?"
The second brother didn't care at all: "Don't worry, even if you don't pass the exam, you still have your younger sister. She will definitely pass."
Zhao Lan: “…”
Li Ningyun: "..."
She quickly kicked her second brother.
The second brother was still a little confused: "Sister, why did you kick me?"
Mother Li: "...You're such a jerk! You can't even talk! Go back to the house! I get a headache just seeing you."
Starting from the next day, Li Ningyun and her second sister-in-law worked during the day and sat together to review at night.
Everyone is waiting for news about the resumption of the college entrance examination.
October 21, 1977.
On this day, the state announced the resumption of the college entrance examination.
Li Ningyun and her second sister-in-law sold their jobs at the factory and devoted themselves to preparing for the college entrance examination.
When Zheng Boyuan knew that Li Ningyun wanted to sell her job, he came to see her specially.
I learned that she wanted to take part in the college entrance examination this time.
Only then did Zheng Boyuan give up the idea of persuading her.
But he still assured her that as long as she failed the exam, she could still go back to work in the factory and that their radio factory still wanted her.
Li Ningyun: "..."
To be honest, she should be touched, but she felt indescribably awkward.
With this college entrance exam, I can pass it with my eyes closed, okay?!
Humph! You actually look down on me! Really~
On the day of the college entrance examination, Li Ningyun and her second sister-in-law each had a fried dough stick and two eggs, and then were sent out of the house by Li's mother.
Zhao Lan had just given birth to a girl over a month ago.
I took the exam just a few days after leaving the confinement period, the timing was just right.
The two of them were treated very well at home before the college entrance examination.
Let me put it this way, the biggest things in the house were the three old hens in the backyard that laid eggs all year round.
Later, the oldest one was my second sister-in-law who was pregnant and studying for the exam, and the second one was Li Ningyun.
After the exam, their status at home plummeted.
Well...it's not just two people, only Li Ningyun's status has plummeted.
Second sister-in-law Zhao Lan had just given birth and was anxious to review for the exam, so she was taken care of as soon as she finished the exam. Mother Li said that she would take good care of Zhao Lan no matter what.
As the best cook in the family, Li Ningyun naturally became the chef of the family.
Li Ningyun: "..."
Okay~ The original owner said that he hopes his family will be safe and harmonious.
How could she, such a big boss, care about such a small matter? Right?
The little Loli looked at the big man who was saying self-comforting words while his hands were moving without slowing down at all, and who was also smiling.
Covering mouth and laughing: The boss is still very cute, right?
The college entrance examination results are out.
Li Ningyun was admitted to the National University of Defense Technology with the highest score in the province.
My second sister-in-law Zhao Lan was admitted to the Normal College in Kyoto.
The day the results came out, the whole village was bustling with activity.
When they first started, they were secretly saying sour things behind each other's backs.
I feel that Mrs. Li and her family are really troublesome.
He just gave up this good, stable job.
If you don't get into a certain university, it will be embarrassing.
He also asked his daughter-in-law to take the exam.
The educated youth in the village have been feeling depressed since they heard the news.
Whether married or not.
The married educated youth even had a lot of quarrels.
There are also people who abandon their husbands and children to apply to this university.
I have never seen an old lady who supports her daughter-in-law in taking college entrance exams as much as Mrs. Li.
To be honest, they all thought that Mrs. Li was crazy.
If the second daughter-in-law passes the exam and wants to divorce the second son, will Mrs. Li still be so supportive?
But since they knew that Li Ningyun had won the top spot in the imperial examination, they stopped spreading sour words outside.
This is the golden phoenix that flew out of their village.
They will all feel proud if they tell others about it!
The Li family doesn't have time to care about the gossip outside.
At this moment, after discussing, the family decided to let Li's mother go to Beijing with the two of them.
I rented a house near Zhao Lan's school and took care of the children at home.
Four years later, Zhao Lan graduated from university and returned directly to the city to become a middle school teacher.
The second brother also listened to his second sister-in-law and started a small business.
My eldest brother and his wife are content with their current situation at the radio factory.
The couple didn't have any big ambitions.
They are already satisfied as long as they can support their families and live a comfortable life.
Li Ningyun also respected the decision of his elder brother and sister-in-law.
And Li's mother also lives in the city now.
Taking care of two children, Li Goudan and Li Mahua.
Li Mahua is the daughter of my second sister-in-law.
After graduation, Li Ningyun directly entered the country's key projects to engage in scientific research.
He left without a trace for ten years.
If Li Ningyun had not come back to see Li's mother before leaving and told her that he had a project that would take him several years to work on.
The specific return date has not been determined, so tell her not to worry.
Li's mother was about to call the police.
In this life, Li Ningyun lived to be forty years old.
After returning home to attend Li's mother's 68th birthday funeral, he decisively fled.
Li's mother's body was severely depleted when she was young.
Although Li Ningyun gave her some tonic.
But it just makes her body look healthy.
The losses incurred in my youth have not been made up.
But although Li's mother passed away early, she did not suffer much.
It can be considered a happy funeral.
Li Ningyun also died the next day after he had dealt with the aftermath.
It's because I'm too tired.
Li Ningyun hasn't had much rest for ten consecutive years.
The boss has a little mood~
"Congratulations, sir. Mission completed. Mission satisfaction rating is five stars. Mission reward is 100 points, totaling 2200 points. Friendly reminder: Mission points can be exchanged for real money. The exchange rate is 1:10,000."
"Continue the mission."
Li Goudan Extra
I have an aunt.
A very powerful aunt.
My mother said that she had never seen anyone more powerful than my aunt.
My aunt is the pride of our whole family.
When I was a child, I always followed my aunt and she would take me up the mountain.
Every time, my aunt would use stones to kill pheasants and rabbits and bring them back to stew.
She always treats me like a child.
She refused to admit that she was the one who hit him.
He insisted that the rabbit had hit a tree and fainted.
Even though I saw the small stone my aunt picked up stuck on the rabbit's head, she refused to admit it.
snort!
Just gonna lie to the kids!
But I still admire her and like her very much.
My aunt would tell me many stories.
Will watch ants moving with me.
She would also secretly make delicious food for me.
Later, my aunt was admitted to university.
She went to study.
I rarely saw my aunt after that.
But grandma said my aunt was doing something great.
She is protecting a lot of people.
I don't know what kind of person would let my aunt protect him for so long.
I can't even go home.
It wasn't until I was in high school that I saw my aunt's name on TV and heard the exciting news.
Then I realized that my aunt was protecting me and thousands of people like me.
From then on, I took my aunt as my role model.
I studied day and night, and finally became the same person as my aunt.
I'm proud of her.
I believe she would be proud of me too.
………………
"Your Majesty, can you please not attend the morning court today?"
When Li Ningyun woke up, she felt a furry head nodding against her chest.
She pushed the head away from her chest.
"What are you doing for fun?"
Lu Bingyan was caught off guard and staggered when Li Ningyun pushed her.
She raised her head in disbelief: "Your Majesty~"
Li Ningyun: "...Speak nicely, I'm getting goosebumps."
Lu Bingyan pursed her lips: "What is the emperor doing?"
Li Ningyun rolled her eyes: "Nothing, I just suddenly feel annoyed when I see you, so you will be staying in the cold palace from today on."
The main point is that the person is unreasonable and willful.
Lu Bingyan looked at Li Ningyun in disbelief: "Your Majesty, what did I do wrong? Why are you punishing me like this?"
Li Ningyun rolled her eyes. "You didn't understand what I said, did you?! I said, seeing you makes me upset, so can you just disappear from my sight?"
"Someone, take Concubine Lu away and send her to the cold palace farthest away from me. I never want to see her again!"
Li Ningyun gave the order without waiting for Lu Bingyan to speak.
The guards came in and took Lu Bingyan away.
Li Ningyun then rubbed his brows and said, "Prepare hot water. I want to take a bath."
The original owner was Li Yun, the monarch of Hongxin Kingdom.
I ascended the throne three years ago, and I wanted to show my talents and be a wise ruler who serves the country and the people.
But the good times did not last long. Half a year ago, the prime minister sent in a beautiful woman.
The heroine, Lü Bingyan, is a soul from another world bound to the system of a demon concubine who brings disaster to the country.
After being bound by the system, come here to complete tasks.
As long as you conquer the original owner and absorb the national fortune of Hongxin Country, you can become stronger and more beautiful.
So Lu Bingyan began to seduce the original owner with all her might. At the beginning, the original owner could still resist the temptation.
As Lu Bingyan conquered more and more people, the system became more and more powerful. The original owner was eventually unable to resist and was controlled by the system.
Then he began to become cruel and tyrannical, lost his ambition, and brought disaster to the people.
As a result, the Kingdom of Hongxin was destroyed by its neighboring country.
Lu Bingyan successfully completed the system task and gained beauty and wealth.
The story of how they finally became united with the emperor of the enemy country and ruled the world together.
The time point when Li Ningyun traveled through was when the original owner had just been controlled by the system.
So her coming to court did not cause much surprise.
When the prime minister saw the emperor coming to court, his eyes flashed.
He stepped forward and said, "Your Majesty, I have something to report."
Li Ningyun pretended to be impatient: "Play, play, play, I want to see who you want to play today."
The Prime Minister ignored Li Ningyun's attitude, which could be described as bad.
He was very confident that what he was going to report would please the emperor.
So he said slowly: "Your Majesty, I feel that the position of empress has been vacant for so long, which is really inappropriate. I believe that Concubine Lu is virtuous, dignified and generous, and is truly a model of a mother of a country. I earnestly request Your Majesty to make Concubine Lu the empress."
Upon hearing this, several officials followed the Prime Minister and knelt down: "Your Majesty, I implore you to make Consort Lu your empress."
Li Ningyun narrowed his eyes.
Wow~ This Lu Bingyan is pretty good.
The Prime Minister is already 39 this year, right? He can even braid his beard into a pigtail.
She really can eat it.
I really tried my best to complete the mission.
Humph~ Isn’t he just a tyrant?
Who is not a grumpy little princess~
Thinking of this, Li Ningyun directly drew out the long sword of the sword-wielding guard beside him.
Without saying a word, he stepped forward and slashed the old prime minister's neck with a sword.
All the officials were stunned.
No? What's going on? Although the emperor was irritable before, he never went to the extent of killing people in the palace over a disagreement!
This... God is going to destroy our Hongxin Kingdom!
The sentimental old minister hid aside and wiped away his tears.
Li Ningyun held the long sword in his hand and looked around: "Who just said that we should come after him?"
The ministers hurriedly stood up, looked at each other, and said nothing.
Only then did Li Ningyun nodded in satisfaction.
"Prime Minister Wang Shengrui has joined forces with the evil concubine Lü Bingyan to wreak havoc in the harem and disrupt state affairs. They deserve death. Do you, my dear ministers, have a different opinion?"
A minister stood up angrily and said, "Your Majesty, you cannot distinguish right from wrong and have killed loyal ministers unjustly! You are so cruel and tyrannical! Sooner or later, the Kingdom of Hongxin will be destroyed by you."
Li Ningyun raised his eyebrows and looked towards the source of the sound.
Wow~ The Prime Minister’s eldest son, Wang Bo, is Lu Bingyan’s second lover.
This father and son really know how to have fun~
Li Ningyun didn't waste any words.
Just walk forward and strike with a sword.
All the ministers were stunned.
This, this, this... Is it too late to resign now?
A minister stepped out tremblingly: "Your Majesty, I am old and unable to do my job. I beg Your Majesty to allow me to retire and return home."
Li Ningyun looked at it coldly.
Yes, it was also from the Prime Minister's side: "Okay."
Afterwards, several more people came out and wanted to retire and return home.
Li Ningyun sneered: "You think that without you, my Hongxin Kingdom will not thrive, right? You want to resign? Sure! I'll approve it!"
So it was Li Ningyun's first day in court.
Two ministers died.
Six ministers retired and returned home.
Li Ningyun directly ordered the imperial guards to search and confiscate the Prime Minister's mansion.
A total of gold and silver jewelry, antique calligraphy and paintings, and jade treasures were confiscated, with a total value of more than 140 million taels.
Li Ningyun directly asked people to write this incident into big-character posters and hang them on various city walls.
Ask someone to recite it twice every day.
Strive to make everyone know the prime minister's crimes.
Not only the prime minister, but also those officials who resigned.
Li Ningyun agreed to their resignation.
Soon they were found to be in collusion with the prime minister.
They formed cliques for personal gain, bullied the people, robbed women, and plundered the people.
Li Ningyun once again issued an angry decree: confiscation of property, beheading, and exile!
The palace's treasury was once again filled.
Then these crimes were once again posted on the city walls.
Someone recites it every day.
The people were delighted.
Officials are all in danger.
Every day before attending the morning court, I would say goodbye to my family with tears, as if it were the last time I would see them.
When I get home from court, I will hug my family and cry bitterly to celebrate that I have escaped another disaster today.
