Chapter 328 Not Comforted at All
After this incident, Yin Qianxue and Chen Huan really stayed in Ping'an Town.
However, they did not stay in the inn anymore. Upon hearing the news, County Magistrate Fang warmly invited the two into his house and treated them as distinguished guests.
Yin Qianxue still had the habit of going to the breakfast shop on Nanjiao Street every day to chat with He Chunxiu about family matters. Chen Huan would go to Fang's house to disturb County Magistrate Fang and drag him to play chess together.
County Magistrate Fang was actually very bad at chess and didn't like playing chess, but since Chen Huan was his superior, he could only endure it and just try to please County Magistrate Chen.
After two days of this, Qi Mo gave the students of Yucai Academy a holiday because Yun Chengfu and others were about to take the academy exam.
The students of Qiuzhi Hall will take two days off to adjust, and then they will face the college entrance examination in two days.
The children in Baoya and the other Enlightenment Hall had a full six days of rest, because the students in the Knowledge Seeking Hall went to the capital of Cangchen State to take part in the college entrance examination, which took a total of four days.
As soon as Mr. Xiao Qi announced the news, the children in the Enlightenment Hall were overjoyed.
As soon as he stepped out of the Enlightenment Hall, the children in the room began to pack up their book baskets quickly, and the written mulberry paper was thrown all over the place.
Baoya and Yunyue were the quickest. After they finished packing, they picked up their book baskets, held hands, and ran next door.
Seeing the two of them rush out like a whirlwind, Jing Zhen curled the corners of his lips helplessly and continued to pack his things in an orderly manner.
"Brother, hurry up!" Yun Yue stood at the door of Qiuzhi Hall and stomped her feet.
Baoya also stood on tiptoe and looked inside: "School ends early today, let's go pick up Third Sister later."
"Okay," Yun Chengfu said with a smile, "I haven't seen her for a while."
Unlike Baoya and Yunyue, he had a lot of things to pack, not to mention pens, ink, paper, and inkstone, but the most important thing was books.
After so many years at Yucai Academy, he has so many books that they can no longer fit on his desk, and there are still quite a few in his dormitory.
Finally, everything was packed up. Yun Chengfu's book basket was full, and he also carried two cloth bags, which were also full of books.
Yunyue stood at the door, her eyes fixed on the books, and asked, "Brother, have you read all these books?"
Yun Chengfu nodded with some pride: "Not only have I read it, I also remember all its contents."
"You, you... memorized them all?" Yun Yue pointed at the two large bags of books. "So many?"
"Well, there should be two big bags like this in the dormitory." Yun Chengfu said unconcernedly, "If I want to take the imperial examination, these few books are nothing. I still have a lot to learn. Let's go and pick up Hua Ya."
Yunyue: ...
Baoya found her dazed look funny.
She stretched out her little hand, patted her shoulder and said, "Fourth sister, let's go."
Yun Chengfu had already gone out first, and Baoya pulled Yunyue to follow quickly.
The two of them struggled with their short legs and finally caught up with Yun Chengfu.
"Oh." Yunyue suddenly sighed.
"Fourth sister, what's wrong with you?" Baoya asked curiously.
Yunyue said sadly, "Baoya, I suddenly realized that I seem to be quite useless."
"Huh?" Baoya was surprised.
Yun Yue said, "Look, my eldest brother is very good at studying, my second brother is very good at martial arts, and my third sister is now learning embroidery. She will definitely be an excellent embroidery worker in the future. And you are good at cooking and you are also very good at wielding a whip."
"I'm the only one left out of five children in my family. I can't do anything."
She pursed her lips, looking frustrated.
Baoya stood on tiptoe and touched the little tuft of hair on her head, trying to comfort her: "No, it's not that, Fourth Sister, you actually...actually..."
She thought about it for a long time but couldn't figure it out, and Yunyue became even more depressed.
"Never mind. I know my own worth."
"Actually, Fourth Sister, aren't you pretty good at growing herbs? I remember you taught Brother Rong before."
Baoya finally figured it out and said quickly.
Yun Yue shook her head: "That's nothing. If you and Third Sister were to come, you would definitely be able to do it too."
After all, it was Baoya who taught her father how to grow vegetables in greenhouses.
Seeing that she was serious, Baoya scratched her cheeks in distress. How should she comfort her fourth sister?
Today is a good day off, and it’s a good day to go home. I can’t make my fourth sister unhappy.
As they walked and talked, they looked up and saw Yun Chengfu and Jingzhen already standing at the entrance of the academy waiting for them, carrying their own book baskets.
The street outside was bustling with people coming and going. A woman was holding a babbling baby and snuggling up to her husband, smiling happily.
Baoya looked at the little baby and her eyes suddenly lit up.
She thought of it!
"Actually, there's no need to be sad, Fourth Sister," Baoya said, "You forgot, my mother and Second Aunt are both pregnant with little brothers!"
"Yes." Yunyue wondered, "So what?"
"So, when the younger brothers are born, there will be seven children in our family! This way, you, the fourth sister, won't be the one who doesn't know anything!"
"When the time comes, you can also teach them how to speak, dress, read and write. You'll be a great sister!"
Yunyue: ...
Oh no, she wasn't comforted at all.
As they were talking, the two of them had already reached the entrance of the academy. Yun Chengfu smiled and said, "What are you two chattering about?"
"We said we should go home quickly." Baoya blinked, "Brother Xiaojing, big brother, let's go!"
"Okay." Yun Chengfu responded.
Jing Zhen refused: "You guys go back first, I have to go to Hongdouxuan."
"Aren't you coming with us?" Baoya was a little disappointed.
"There are still some things in the shop that need my attention, so I'll be back later." Jing Zhen said.
In fact, on the one hand, there was something going on, and on the other hand, the whole Yun family was leaving together, and it was a bit abrupt for him, an outsider, to be inserted in between.
"Okay then." Baoya didn't force it. "By the way, can second brother come home today?"
"Do you want him to go home?" Jing Zhen asked back.
"I do!" Baoya nodded vigorously.
Jing Zhen reached out and pinched the small hair on her head, then said with a smirk, "Then when I return to Tiger Tooth Mountain, I'll ask Master to let him come back."
"Okay!" Baoya was happy again instantly.
After saying goodbye to Jingzhen, Yun Chengfu took his two younger sisters and went straight to Grandma Yu's house on Nanjiao Street, picked up Yunhua, and went back to the breakfast shop together.
The four children finally got together and chattered endlessly along the way.
It was still far away, but when Baoya saw the big tree in front of her breakfast shop, she rushed over happily.
As soon as I stepped into the door, I found Yin Qianxue and Xia He were there too.
"Baoya, class is over." Yin Qianxue greeted her with a smile.
Baoya nodded and was thinking about how to answer when Yun Chengfu arrived with Yunyue and Yunhua.
Yin Qianxue had never met Yun Chengfu and Yun Hua before, so she was a little surprised to see so many children rushing into the shop.
"Wow, so many children."
"That's more," He Chunxiu smiled, pointing at Yun Chengfu and said, "There's also a second child at home, a boy like Chengfu, and they're both from my eldest sister-in-law's family."
Then he pointed at Yunyue and Yunhua and said, "These two little girls are from my second sister-in-law's family."
"So your family only has one child." Yin Qianxue chuckled and joked.
Baoya came close to the two of them, gently touched He Chunxiu's already bulging belly with her small hand, and said with a smile: "There will be another one soon!"
