Chapter 114 Is there some conspiracy?
Xie Jingci glanced at Xuan Qi coldly: "Too much nonsense."
Xuan Qi felt wronged.
Isn't he afraid of being disliked by his master again?
Lu Wanyin took her own portion, swallowed it in one gulp, and squinted her eyes happily: "Sister-in-law, I won't be able to eat your cooking skills in the future, and I will miss it."
Being liked by others, Shitou’s wife was happy: “If you like it, please eat more. There is more in the pot.”
Lu Wanyin nodded: "Okay!"
The Shuigen brothers ate voraciously and finished their meal in no time.
They wanted to eat more, but their mother said that the leftovers were for the guests, so they hurriedly said they were full and diligently cleared the dishes.
Lu Wanyin saw it and sighed in her heart.
In comparison, Xie Zichuan has been well-fed and well-clothed since childhood, but he is no match for these two children.
At this time, the two children who had cleaned up the dishes came out of the kitchen and walked towards Lu Wanyin mysteriously.
Shui Gen timidly extended his hand in front of Lu Wanyin: "Big sister, this is for you."
Lu Wanyin put down the bowl in surprise, took the thing in his hand and looked at it carefully.
This thing is made of hay, and judging from its shape, it looks like a sword.
Shui Gen saw her looking back and forth several times and became a little nervous: "I heard from Grandpa that Big Sister and Big Brother are both heroes. Now that they are in trouble, the big sword can drive away the bad guys."
Lu Wanyin felt warm in her heart.
Children may not understand that much, but their thoughts are surprisingly touching.
Lu Wanyin touched Shuigen's head and said, "That's a great story. Do you want to become a hero in the future?"
"think!"
Shui Gen raised his head high and said, "I want to be like General Xie, guarding Dasheng and protecting the people."
Lu Wanyin smiled: "Okay, okay. Shuigen should study hard, get the top scorer in the imperial examination, defend the country, and help the people, okay?"
Shui Gen answered loudly: "Okay!"
Shitou's wife looked relieved, but there was an unshakable sadness in her eyes.
Lu Wanyin patted Shuigen's head and said, "Then go study quickly. Don't study too late. Night lights are bad for your eyes."
The two little guys responded happily and ran away quickly.
Lu Wanyin then looked at Shitou's wife: "Sister-in-law, are you worried about anything?"
Shitou's wife sighed and said, "To be honest, we can no longer let Shuigen continue his studies."
Lu Wanyin was surprised: "Why?"
She surveyed her surroundings.
After all, this is the village chief's home, and he lives in a brick house.
Although we can't have meat every meal, life should be good.
It shouldn't be expensive for children in Dasheng to go to school, especially in private schools in small places.
Shitou's wife sighed and said, "You don't know that there are no private schools in the dozen or so villages nearby. There is only one in Ning County."
Ordinary people, who doesn't know that studying is the only way out?
They also want their children to go to private schools.
But ever since the Ning County Magistrate took office, he has been trying every possible way to make money.
When there was nothing to gain elsewhere, he turned his attention to private schools.
Originally, there was a private school in every few villages in Ning County.
One after another, they were all brought down.
Either the private school was burned down, or the teacher was taken away due to an accident.
Gradually, in the entire Ning County, there was only one academy in the county town.
The county magistrate has the final say on which children can enter the academy and which children cannot.
At the beginning, some people protested, but nothing came of it, and their children's education was delayed.
In the end, they could only offer some benefits and send their children to school.
The village chief's family was quite wealthy, and they sent their two children to study in academy.
But in the past two years, the county magistrate's appetite has grown bigger and bigger, and he has asked for more and more things.
Even they can't afford it.
The Shuigen brothers were driven out.
I have been staying at home for more than two months now.
The more Lu Wanyin listened, the angrier she became.
It seems that letting the Ning County Magistrate die today was too easy.
She really wanted to retrieve the body, chop it a few times, and stomp on it a few times.
Not only did he bring harm to the people, he even messed up the affairs of the academy.
Moreover, even if you study in such an academy, what good can it teach?
This is the future of Dasheng!
Lu Wanyin doesn't want to take over a mess after rebelling in the future!
She tried to suppress her anger. "Sister-in-law, what a coincidence! I forgot to tell you that the Ning County Magistrate has learned his lesson. These things won't happen again. You can rest assured and send the two children to the academy to study hard."
Shitou's wife hesitated: "Forget it, it's just the right time to help out when the housework is busy."
It’s not that she doesn’t believe Lu Wanyin’s words.
Having lived in Ning County for half her life, she knew too well what kind of person the Ning County magistrate was.
Even if what Lu Wanyin said now is possible, what about after she leaves?
"Sister-in-law, this matter is——"
Lu Wanyin glanced around and saw Hou Yuanji, who was still shivering from the cold in a coma.
Her and Xie Jingci's current identities are inconvenient, but they can borrow this guy's name.
She pointed over there and winked at Xuan Yi: "This is the order of Lord Hou himself. He is the eldest son of the Marquis family in the capital. How dare a mere county magistrate disobey him?"
Fortunately, Hou Yuanji's reputation did not spread so far.
Shitou's wife only knew that the Hou family was powerful, but she didn't know what kind of person Hou Yuanji was in the capital.
Hearing this, he believed it a lot: "Really?"
Lu Wanyin said confidently, "Don't worry, Lord Hou has specially left people to watch over us. Even if we leave, the county magistrate won't dare to act rashly."
By the wall, Xuan Qi slapped Hou Yuanji on the face several times: "Wake up, Lord Hou, wake up."
Perhaps because he had hit him too hard just now, Hou Yuanji curled up and did not wake up.
Xuan Qi yelled, "It's time to eat."
Hou Yuanji suddenly got up and said: "Where's the food? Where's the food? Where's the food?"
Before I even opened my eyes, my hands and feet subconsciously moved in the direction of the fragrance.
When he opened his eyes, he was already beside Lu Wanyin.
He looked at the small half bowl of wontons left on the table with shining eyes, his eyes turned green, and he reached out to take it.
Before my hand could touch it, the bowl disappeared.
When I turned around, I saw Lu Wanyin gulping down soup.
Hou Yuanji's eyes almost popped out: "You you you..."
In the blink of an eye, half a bowl of wontons was gone.
Lu Wanyin put the empty bowl back on the table and demurely wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief.
Sorry, when we first entered the apocalypse, we scrambled for food and competed to see who could eat faster.
She later became very successful and her basic skills were naturally maxed out.
Xuan Qi received Xie Jingci's gaze and cleared his throat: "Ahem, Lord Hou, don't worry, I'll go get you another bowl."
He muttered to himself.
You are so ungrateful, you dare to snatch the wontons that the lady has eaten.
If you dare to rob today, the general will chop you into pieces and make wontons tomorrow.
Hou Yuanji took the wontons from Xuan Qi, his eyes moist.
This was the first time in such a long time that he got food from Lu Wanyin so easily.
I'm afraid there's some conspiracy.
