Chapter 261 Ma Tongsheng takes the exam

and......

As she got closer, she discovered that Jiang Zhuzi was quite good-looking.

Maybe because he seldom does farm work, he is not very dark.

His skin is not as rough as that of a farmer's.

If he put on a set of clothes made of fine fabric, people would probably think he grew up in the city.

The two chatted for more than a quarter of an hour.

Wang called him back.

At this time, Widow Liu looked very unhappy. As soon as her son came back, she took him and said goodbye.

Just walked out of Sun's house.

Jiang Zhuzi hurriedly asked, "Mom, when can we find a matchmaker to come and propose marriage?"

"Propose a marriage? What marriage? When did mother promise you to marry her? You really don't know, son. The Sun family is not easy to deal with. They actually asked for a five-liang betrothal gift, and they also want to give her four younger brothers a hundred-wen gift money each. I have never heard of giving money to the younger brothers of the wife's family when marrying her. It is really unheard of.

You are so greedy, you are trying every possible way to empty our family. No, you can't marry her. Son, listen to me for once, okay? I promise to find you a girl who is as pretty as her. There are many Wang Xiaotao and Li Xiaotao in the world. We don't want her, okay? We really can't afford to marry her. If we really marry her, what will we eat and drink?"

Widow Liu's lips were deeply pursed, and she tried her best to suppress the urge to get angry.

I saw that my son looked very bad.

She gave in again and pretended to be pitiful.

"Mom, I just want to marry her. Please, I promise that after we get married, I will work hard on the farm. All the farm work will be handed over to me, and there will be bamboo banks, which will also be long-term income. Our family can obviously afford it, so why don't you let me marry her? Aren't you making money for me? What's the point of you wanting money?"

Jiang Zhuzi, who was so angry, didn't want to listen to this nonsense at all.

He only wants to marry Sun Xiaotao.

He doesn't want Wang Xiaotao or Li Xiaotao, even if they are a hundred times better than Sun Xiaotao.

The mother and son quarreled all the way to Jiangjia Village and finally parted on bad terms.

Jiang Zhuzi ran off to look for his bad friends.

Widow Liu also lay on the table in the main room, wiping her tears.

"Mother, since my brother wants to marry, let him marry. I will be married in a few days. If you push my brother too hard and he doesn't come back, who will you rely on?"

Jiang Yadan's eyes were swollen like walnuts.

The wedding day is getting closer.

She couldn't sleep every night and her pillow was wet with tears.

But I never told my mother that I didn't want to get married.

Widow Liu was not blind, so she could naturally see that her daughter's eyes were swollen from crying.

But she pretended not to see it.

Just know how to complain.

At this time, on the other side of the town.

Jiang Fubao, who was bored of playing in the backyard, came to the front of the shop. She sat on the doorstep and chatted with the customers in line, but her eyes kept looking towards the street.

The person who was supposed to monitor his home didn't come today.

"Little Fubao, can you come home with uncle? Uncle's house is very big, and there are all kinds of delicious food and fun things. You can be uncle's granddaughter."

This is the eighteenth weird uncle who wants to take me home.

Jiang Fubao wanted to roll his eyes, but he held it back.

"If uncle likes me, please come to the shop more often to see me. As for uncle's house, I won't go there. Grandma will miss me if she can't see me for a while. I can't let grandma be sad. I'm sorry, uncle."

"Hahaha, look how clever the child is. Okay, okay, uncle will come often in the future, not for food, but just to see our Fubao!"

As soon as Jiang Fubao said this, the people queuing at the door burst into laughter.

The man who spoke also stroked his beard and promised her that he would come to the shop often.

Easily resolve questions raised by adults.

Jiang Fubao stood up, patted his little butt and prepared to go back.

As she turned around.

A carriage passed by the door.

In less than a minute, another carriage followed.

"Husband, I miss you so much~"

Zhou Yuanyuan leaned on Ma Wuxing's shoulder, her voice was coquettish, and the address changed from Xinglang to husband.

The two of them looked so intimate, as if they were a newly married couple.

At least that's what the driver in front thought.

"Is my son well behaved? If he feels uncomfortable, please tell me and I will ask the driver to drive slower so as not to bump my precious son."

Ma Wuxing touched Zhou Yuanyuan's belly.

There is anticipation in his eyes.

The one inside is his eldest son.

"I'm fine. Our son knows that his father is going to take the exam, so he is very well behaved. My husband, if you can pass the exam and become a scholar or even a great man, you..."

Zhou Yuanyuan paused in the middle of her speech.

Tears suddenly welled up in her eyes.

She bit her lower lip and sniffed, looking extremely pitiful.

It makes people want to cherish her.

"I know what you want to say. Don't worry, I won't let you be my concubine. My eldest son cannot be born out of wedlock. As long as I pass the imperial examination, I will immediately divorce Wangshu and marry you."

It is said that a poor scholar is a rich man.

I have never seen a man who couldn’t take money out of his pocket.

Even if you fail to pass the imperial examination in the future, you can still seek a small official position.

The reason why I married Wangshu was because her family was rich.

For no other reason.

But now his father-in-law has been squeezing out money all day and can no longer make any money, so why should he keep Wangshu around?

When I think of the ugly face of the tigress at home.

Ma Wuxing felt like vomiting.

The disgust in his heart gradually faded away until he saw Zhou Yuanyuan beside him.

"Husband, you are bad~"

The sound of the two people playing reached the driver's ears through the curtain.

He swallowed.

Pretend not to hear.

After arriving at the city gate and being checked by the guards and allowed to pass, the carriage turned around and continued on its way.

What the three didn't know was.

A hundred meters away, there was another carriage following them.

"Don't get too close, and don't get too far away. Just keep this distance. Remember, don't lose me."

Chang Ying said to the coachman.

"Yes, sir, don't worry, I promise to follow closely and I will definitely not lose you. I have been driving for more than ten years, and everyone praises me for my stable driving."

The groom has a cheerful personality.

You can chat with anyone.

But Chang Yu was just a servant and had a mission to accomplish.

I don't want to talk to the groom at all.

After giving the instructions, he returned to the carriage and sat down.

I didn't respond to the groom.

Feeling ignored, the groom curled his lips, said nothing more, and continued on his way.

The sun climbed higher and higher.

Until it stopped on the treetop.

At this time, it was already noon.

Jiang Tongmu and Meng Bujiu had just arrived at Kong Ming's house.

They found that Wan Xian had already prepared a table of food and was waiting for them.

"Hello, Auntie. Sorry to bother you. Mingxue said you like to eat sweet soup dumplings, so my grandmother asked me to bring some."

Jiang Tongmu opened the lunch box and found exactly five servings of sweet soup inside.

The watermelon was cut into large pieces, and taro balls were also added.

The quantity is much larger than what is sold in the shop.
