Chapter 227: Promise



Everything was discussed, and everyone went out to look for people immediately while the excitement was still going on.

After Song and the others walked out of the yard, Sanlang looked at Shen Yu'an with shining eyes and asked, "Sister, have you contacted Brother Che since he left?"

Shen Yuan looked at Sanlang who had moved to squat in front of him and asked with a smile, "What's wrong?"

Sanlang said with a sad face: "Sister, Brother Che promised that if I pass the exam, he would let me work for him, and you also agreed. You can't go back on your word!"

Sanlang had an accusing look on his face, as if he had lost all hope in life because Chen Yu'an was lying and said he didn't remember the incident.

Shen Yu'an really wanted to cheat. After all, Fei Yanche's situation in the capital was not very good. If Sanlang was allowed to go to the capital alone, not only would Second Aunt and the others be worried, even she would be worried.

But he had to do what he promised. Shen Yuan thought for a while before saying, "Ache's situation in Beijing is not very good now. Although I can't let you go to Beijing to follow him, I can make the decision to let you work with Feixi first."

"You have to remember, if you follow Feixi, you have to follow his instructions. You can't be careless just because of your relationship with Ache. If you don't pay attention to what you do, you will lose your life."

"If you can't even pass Feixi's test, then don't even think about working with Ache. After all, it's extremely dangerous to work with him."

Sanlang doesn't care who he follows first, as long as his family agrees.

He nodded happily to show his willingness.

Shen Yuan looked at his excitement and reminded him, "You haven't discussed it with your second uncle, second aunt, grandpa and grandma yet."

Except for Song and a few others who went out to find help, everyone else was still sitting in the yard.

Hearing this, Sanlang quickly turned his head to Old Lady Shen, Old Man Shen, and his own father.

Without him saying anything, the three of them could see what was in Sanlang's eyes: Promise me now, promise me!

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. The old man understood that he couldn’t force the child to study even if he didn’t want to. Besides, since Anan had said so, there shouldn’t be any problem, so he agreed.

"Oh~ Thank you, sister, thank you, grandfather..."

Sanlang was showing off and thanked everyone, then ran behind Shen Yuan and massaged his shoulders and back.

Don't mention it, the force was just right, Shen Yu'an used it easily, "A little to the left, a little to the right, yes, yes, that's the spot, you haven't eaten yet, use some strength!"

Sanlang was ordered around without a single complaint and served Shen Yu'an wholeheartedly.

All matters were settled. Old Lady Shen stood up with her hands behind her back and said, "Well, let's do what we need to do. Dalang, Erlang, Silang, and Wendong, you must not slack off in your studies, because you will have the provincial examination next autumn."

The four of them stood up and said seriously: "Grandson will remember Grandpa's teachings and will definitely study hard."

"Yeah, okay!"

The old man was happy, and called Grandpa Zhang and Grandpa Shen Xingwang to go out and find someone to chat with.

Chen Yun also pulled his sweet and soft little girl from Chen Yu'an into his arms, so that Chen Yu'an, who had just returned and had not yet washed up, could tidy her up.

When she was taken away, the little girl was still reluctantly grabbing one of Shen Yu'an's fingers and refused to let go.

Chen Yun held her in his arms and slapped her butt twice in a bluffing manner, complaining: "You conscienceless little girl, have you forgotten who feeds you and clothes you all day long?"

The little girl thought Shen Yun was teasing her, and finally drew her attention away from Shen Yu’an and started to giggle.

Although it is summer now, you cannot use water just drawn from the well to take a bath.

Sanlang took the initiative to go to the kitchen to help Chen Yuan boil water and carry buckets.

Looking at Sanlang running around, Shen Yu'an felt that it was time to hire a few servants for the family. After hiring servants, the family would no longer have to deal with small matters like this, and they would have more time to do other things.

But now Sanlang still needs to work.

Shen Yu'an stood up and realized that there was one person missing from his home. Why didn't he see Ji Xun when he came back this time?

"Where's Ji Xun?"

"He went to town that day and never came back, but he sent someone to bring a message back saying he was going to pick someone up or something."

"oh."

Shen Yu'an didn't care too much. After all, Ji Xun was such a grown-up, he wouldn't get lost.

After Sanlang brought the boiled hot water into the house, Shen Yu'an lay in the bathtub and soaked comfortably for a while to relieve his fatigue.

As it was planned to hold a celebration banquet the day after tomorrow, Shen Yu'an and others went to the town to buy things the next day. The little stock at home was not enough for the whole village.

They went to the town and caught up with four ox carts. After Shen Dalang and his friends passed the imperial examination and became scholars, it was no longer suitable for them to attend classes in the town's school.

The teacher in the town's school is only at the level of a scholar.

The few of them didn't have time to find a suitable school, so they naturally had free time.

Seeing that they were going to the town to buy things, a few people simply interrupted Shen Ming and his friends' work and drove the ox cart to the town with Shen Yu'an.

The main purpose of their trip was to buy vegetables and meat.

They went there early, and when they arrived in the town, the roadside vendors had just put out their goods.

As long as the dish looked good, Shen Yu'an would order it with a wave of her hand. The vendors who had just set up their stalls or had not yet set up their stalls looked at Shen Yu'an and others with gratitude.

Big customer!

With Shen Yu'an's purchase, they no longer have to guard the stall here all day.

After buying the vegetables, Shen Yu'an took them to the butcher shop to buy pork.

They didn't see anyone selling fish in the town, so they had to wait until they got back to catch them in the river.

They went around the town and bought everything they needed for tomorrow. The empty ox cart was now filled up and they headed back home.

After returning home, they unloaded the vegetables and meat into the yard, and then went to the river behind the village to catch fish.

Fortunately, people don't often fish in this river, and the fish are not very alert. In just one afternoon, Shen Dalang and his friends caught enough fish for tomorrow.

When they were carrying the baskets of fish back home, there were already many women busy tidying up the yard behind the Shen family's house.

These are the helpers hired by the Song family. They have to pack up their things starting today, otherwise it will be too late tomorrow.
