…
Achoo!
The last day of the college entrance examination.
At noon, Mu Achen and Amo had just come out of Shengtang Company when Achen couldn't help but sneeze again.
"Achen, what's wrong with you? You've been like this since last night."
Amo turned around and touched Achen's forehead. "It's not hot, and your temperature is normal. It doesn't seem like a cold."
Ah Chen rubbed his slightly itchy nose. "I guess someone is talking badly about me."
Bad things?
As Amo's contact lenses swirled, she used the power of the Spirit Butterfly to sense the Spirit Butterfly within Achen's body.
Sure enough, the next second---
Amo knew what was going on, and she couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Amo, what are you laughing at?"
"Some people have been talking about Miao children since last night! In other words, they're pressuring us to have children!"
Miao children?
To induce childbirth?
Mu Achen's lips twitched. He really wanted to yell: "Are you sick? Whether we have children or not is our own business. Why are you worrying about this?"
But he was worried that his mother-in-law would pressure him to have a baby, so he held back.
After that, the two walked around the street, looking at things, and finally went into a snack shop.
"By the way, Amo, this year's Drumming Festival is being celebrated by other branches, and we're too busy to handle it here. But there's something you should be prepared for."
"What's wrong?"
"Keep it a secret! Just don't bite me when the time comes."
"Very mysterious."
Because the young couple were dressed in simple Miao clothing, the other diners in the restaurant naturally wouldn't associate them with the future Miao king and the current holy maiden.
After all, there have been quite a few more Miao men and young Miao women in the county town these past two days!
Just then, Amo brought over the cold chicken blood and rice noodle rolls that Achen had ordered, and she heard the other diners talking about it.
"Have you heard? Miao Family Middle School is completely tuition-free!"
"That goes without saying. We heard about it before the New Year. Shengtang Company covered all the expenses! And this Shengtang belongs to their future Miao King and the current Holy Maiden."
"Tch, you think you're the only one who knows? We've also heard that there's a high chance that this year's top scorer in the county's college entrance exam will be one of the 130-plus students from the Miao family."
"It's hard to say! The Miao people have never cared about academics as much as they have this year. It seems that what the elders said is true."
"What did you say?"
The topic of the Miao people drew the attention of the men and women eating at the nearby tables, and even Ah Chen and Ah Mo exchanged glances and perked up their ears.
Meanwhile, among the group of people chatting animatedly, the woman who seemed to know everything spoke up first:
"The Holy Maiden appears, the Miao King emerges."
"What do you mean?"
“Aren’t you locals? Don’t you know that the Holy Maiden of our Miao region in eastern Guizhou only appears once every few hundred years, and the Miao King only appears once every thousand years?”
The woman was proud to be a local, and even the man next to her said arrogantly:
"That's right, absolutely right!"
“In our eastern and southern Guizhou, there are at least 600,000 to 700,000 genuine Miao people. If we add the fake Miao people, there are at least a million.”
"The current Holy Maiden is a favored daughter of heaven, holding supreme power over the Miao region! And the future Miao King is an exceptionally talented individual, a star among Miao people, appearing a thousand years ago and leading his people out of Guizhou Province."
"A thousand years later, the Miao King has reappeared. Although times have changed, look at Miao territory now. In just one year, the changes have been tremendous. It's no exaggeration to say that it has been turned upside down."
"Yes, in just one year, the future Miao King and the current Holy Maiden have made Miao territory so powerful. If this continues for another ten years, won't our eastern and southern regions be flying high?"
The group chatted animatedly, focusing solely on this one topic. However, one of the women suddenly asked, "By the way, the Holy Maiden and the future Miao King have been engaged for almost a year now, right? Has anyone heard when the Holy Maiden's baby will be born?"
"It should be soon. I saw the saintess the other day, and she was already showing."
Where did you see it?
"It's at the hotel entrance! It's where all the Miao children who took the college entrance exam this year are staying."
"Then it must be true! If the Holy Maiden is showing signs of pregnancy, then she's at least four or five months along."
cough cough---
This caused Amo, who was eating nearby, to choke!
While drinking rice wine, Ah Chen smiled and looked at Ah Mo, his eyes constantly glancing at Ah Mo's lower abdomen. Finally, he lowered his voice and asked, "Sister Ah Mo, when did you get a Miao dress that makes you look pregnant? I've never seen it before."
"Stop joking, don't you know whether I'm pregnant or not?"
These past few days, when Amo and Achen went out to play, they would often encounter people talking about similar things, and they were used to it.
but---
After chatting for a while, the group of people next to them actually came over to Mu Achen and Amo.
"Young master, may we sit here?"
The one asking the questions seemed to be the same young woman who had said "we know everything" earlier.
Ah Chen glanced at Ah Mo and gestured for them to do as they pleased.
The few people who sat down actually asked Ah Chen.
"Young master, judging from your Miao attire, you must be from the Black Miao branch, which has the strongest fighting force, right?"
The strongest fighter?
Ah Chen laughed and said, "Brother, if the Qingmiao branch hears you say that, we'll definitely have a fight. So, just say what you mean and don't offer any more inflammatory remarks."
Forehead--
This young Miao boy is quite clever! He doesn't fall for flattery at all.
cough cough--
The man who had spoken earlier coughed a few times before asking, "Young Master, we all know that your future Miao King also comes from your Black Miao branch, so we'd like to ask you something, is that alright?"
