Seeing Wei Hanzhou's reaction, Liu Tangxi felt much more relaxed.

It seems that she was right. Wei Hanzhou is definitely not the kind of person who would silently endure a punch from someone else.

As long as it's not, that's fine.

So, next, Liu Tangxi expressed her thoughts: "Husband, don't you think what happened that day was too strange?"

Wei Hanzhou restrained his emotions, looked at Liu Tangxi who had something to say, narrowed his eyes slightly, and asked: "What are you doubting?"

Liu Tangxi knew that Wei Hanzhou was a smart man, so she didn't beat around the bush and directly told Wei Hanzhou what Li had said to her that day.

Finally, he expressed his thoughts: "It's too coincidental that they appear, isn't it?"

Wei Hanzhou pursed his lips and said nothing, as if he was thinking about something.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou like this, Liu Tangxi felt a little uneasy, not sure what he was thinking.

After a long silence, Liu Tangxi asked again: "Husband, don't you feel it?"

Wei Hanzhou was not stupid. On the contrary, he was very smart. He looked at Liu Tangxi's expectant eyes and asked, "Do you want me to help you get revenge?"

After saying that, he glanced at the made bed beside him, then looked at Liu Tangxi in front of him.

So, she made his bed and stayed close to him just for this, right?

What a cunning little cat.

Seeing Wei Hanzhou's understanding eyes, Liu Tangxi panicked, faked a few times, and said excitedly: "How...how is it possible? I'm not that kind of person."

After saying this, fearing that Wei Hanzhou would not help her, Liu Tangxi quickly said, "I am thinking about you! If it is really related to their family, then they are plotting against you, my husband. They are plotting against you not only for the money you spent on the imperial examinations, but also for you as a person."

The more Liu Tangxi talked, the more she felt that it made sense. It didn't matter if Wei Hanzhou didn't help her, but this matter also involved their family affairs and himself, so she didn't believe that he would not react.

Thinking of this, Liu Tangxi added: "It's okay to scheme against people, but that money is life-saving, this cannot be tolerated."

The look in Wei Hanzhou's eyes finally changed, and he stared at his wife who was looking at him expectantly.

It's enough to just scheme against others...

Oh.

Seeing this look, Liu Tangxi felt a little scared for no reason. He swallowed and asked uncertainly, "You... don't you think... what I said makes sense?"

Wei Hanzhou looked into Liu Tangxi's eyes seriously for a long time, said nothing, then turned over and went to sleep.

Liu Tangxi was a little confused when he saw Wei Hanzhou's attitude.

So, did he feel that she was taking advantage of him and was upset, or was it because he thought that Mr. Li's family was unhappy with him?

Besides, will he help or not?

After thinking for a moment, Liu Tangxi still didn't understand what Wei Hanzhou meant.

Oh, forget it. It’s better to rely on yourself than on others. She should think of a solution herself.

After thinking all this over, Liu Tangxi covered himself with the quilt and went to sleep.

Liu Tangxi fell asleep quickly, but Wei Hanzhou was too angry to fall asleep. Listening to the steady breathing in his ears, Wei Hanzhou felt even more depressed.

Early the next morning, Liu Tangxi discovered something belatedly.

That is, Wei Hanzhou is really angry this time!

No matter how she annoyed him before, he always seemed to be indifferent, but this time was different.

Because his emotions were somewhat exposed, and he was almost telling everyone that he was angry.

Although he always had a deadpan expression and didn't pay much attention to her, she could still read his displeasure from his expressionless face.

After dinner, she was about to teach Bosheng a few words, but Wei Hanzhou called Bosheng to the study for the first time.

Later, when she was teaching Fu Yao and Shu Lan how to read, she heard Wei Hanzhou's voice criticizing Bo Sheng in the study.

"Have you not studied well these days?" Wei Hanzhou asked with a cold face.

Bosheng was trembling with fear.

"Um?"

Bosheng lowered his head and nodded silently.

"You will be going to school in town in a few days. If you still have this attitude, I think you don't need to go."

After a while, Bosheng came back, and the moment he saw Liu Tangxi, tears fell from his eyes.

This made Liu Tangxi very sad.

Wei Hanzhou is really a piece of shit. He just scolds her when he is angry with her. Why is he scolding a child? Bosheng is so cute, with a chubby little face, big eyes, and a confused look.

She is well-behaved and obedient on weekdays, helping to take care of her younger sister at home. She is more sensible than many children she knew in her previous life.

How could he have the heart to criticize?

Liu Tangxi wiped away the tears from Bosheng's face distressedly and comforted him: "Stop crying, stop crying, it's all your uncle's fault. Your uncle was in a bad mood and took his anger out on you."

Wei Hanzhou, who was in the study, felt even angrier after hearing this.

He took a few deep breaths and closed his eyes.

"Brother, I'll give you all the candy, don't cry." Shu Lan said while holding Bosheng's little hand.

Fu Yao also said, "I won't scare you with bugs next time."

Hearing the voices of his two sisters, Bosheng cried for a while and then stopped. As a brother, how could he cry in front of his sisters? It was not manly at all.

"I...I...I didn't cry." Bosheng turned around and said with a red face.

Liu Tangxi glanced at Fu Yao and Shu Lan, then at the shy Bo Sheng, and said with a smile: "Well, your brother didn't cry, it's just that the strong wind blinded him."

"Ah?" Shu Lan looked puzzled.

Fu Yao also looked at Liu Tangxi with a puzzled look.

"Okay, you two should quickly read the few sentences that Auntie San just taught you."

"oh."

Liu Tangxi took a handkerchief to wipe Bosheng's tears, and then went to fetch water for him to wash.

After washing, Bosheng glanced in the direction of the study and said, "Third uncle is right. I haven't studied hard these days. I just wanted to play. I will study hard in the future, so that grandpa, parents and grandma won't have to work so hard."

Hearing him say this, Liu Tangxi felt even more distressed. However, she also knew that in this era, if you want to stand out, you have to study. Even if you have an uncle who is the top scholar, he will not have a good future if he does not study.

So, although he felt distressed, Liu Tangxi still held back and said, "Well, it's good that you can figure it out. Your uncle also wants you to be successful. Bosheng is the most obedient. You study hard and your aunt will make delicious food for you."

"Thank you, Auntie."

"You're welcome." Liu Tangxi pinched Bosheng's chubby face.

Bosheng smiled naively.

Seeing his nephew recovering, Wei Hanzhou sighed deeply. Then he looked at Liu Tangxi standing next to his nephew, and after taking a look, he turned his head away.

He felt that the more he looked at her, the angrier he would get.

That afternoon, Bosheng no longer sat by and watched them embroider. Instead, he took a book and sat by and recited it.

Liu Tangxi felt both relieved and distressed.

Seeing her son like this, Zhang's face was filled with smiles and she felt more and more energetic.

"I heard from my third brother that he has found a teacher for him and will send him over tomorrow."

Liu Tangxi came back to his senses, smiled and nodded.

Wei Hanzhou has always been a reliable person. If he says he will find a good husband for his nephew, he will definitely find a good one.

"Well, I don't ask him to get the top score like his third uncle. As long as he can pass the examination and become a scholar, like Mr. Li, he can take care of a few students at home. Then he won't have to worry about food and clothing in the future." Zhang said.

Zhang's ideas are actually simple and honest.

The benefits of Li Xiucai passing the examination were tangible: he had more money to bring with him as a student, received a lot of tuition fees, and his family was rich in gold and silver.

"Bosheng will definitely be better than Li Xiucai in the future." Liu Tangxi said affirmatively.

She had taught Bosheng, and although Bosheng was not a particularly smart child, he was definitely not stupid. However, Fuyao was too smart, which made him look a little stupid. With his qualifications, it should not be difficult for him to pass the examination to become a scholar.

Moreover, with the atmosphere of the Third Brother Wei's family here, it would be difficult for him to learn bad things.

Later, Wei Hanzhou passed the imperial examination and became the top scholar, and his family's financial situation improved. Bosheng was able to study in the capital, where the most educational resources were concentrated in the country, and his future was limitless.

Hearing Liu Tangxi say this, Zhang asked excitedly, "Really?"

Liu Tangxi nodded: "Of course it's true."

"But his uncle often criticizes him, and I heard that he is not as good as Fu Yao in learning." Zhang said uncertainly, "Third brother's wife, are you trying to comfort me?"

"Of course not. There are not many people as smart as his third uncle. Maybe in his eyes, there are no smart people." Liu Tangxi told the truth.

After saying that, he looked at Fuyao who was playing with Shulan in the yard and said, "Besides, Fuyao is probably like her uncle, she is also smart. But Bosheng is definitely not stupid."

Parents like others to praise their children. Liu Tangxi can embroider and read, and Zhang has unknowingly trusted her.

So, after hearing her say this, Zhang smiled even more.

During the meal, although Liu Tangxi was sitting next to Wei Hanzhou, Wei Hanzhou didn't even look at her.

There were several times when she wanted to talk to him and try to smooth things over, but he had no intention of talking to her.

Since that was the case, Liu Tangxi didn't want to bother with him anymore. Who knew why he was angry? He didn't say it. In the end, he was the one who was angry, not her. Let him sulk and see if he can't hold it back to death!

It would be more reliable for her to think carefully about Mr. Li's family affairs.

Li Xiucai's family was slandering her and ruining her reputation. She couldn't just do nothing, could she? Moreover, if it was proven that their family was in collusion with the fortune teller, then the nature of this matter would be different.

But Wei Hanzhou made it clear that he didn't want to get involved in this matter, so she had to rely on herself.

This matter involves three parties: the fortune teller, Li Xiucai's family, and Wei Laosan's family.

If we want to find evidence, we have to start with the fortune teller and Li Xiucai's family. The fortune teller is said to be locked up. Of course, some people also say that he was taken away somewhere else, which means he is not here anymore. Then there is only Li Xiucai's family. How can we make them admit their mistakes?

Liu Tangxi spent the rest of the day thinking about this.

Early the next morning, Wei Hanzhou and Wei Daniu took Bosheng to the town.

However, in the afternoon, only Wei Daniu and Bo Sheng came back.

"Hey? Where's the third brother? Why didn't he come back with you?" Li asked with concern.

Wei Daniu explained: "Third brother said he had something to do and would be back later."

When Li heard this, she responded and asked no more questions. Instead, she asked about Bo Sheng.

"Well, what does the Master say?"

Zhang also looked at Wei Daniu nervously.

Wei Daniu smiled and said, "The Master said that our uncle is very talented. He should follow his uncle. I will take him to the town tomorrow morning."

Li and Zhang both breathed a sigh of relief.

"That's good, that's good, let's make some more delicious food later."

Several children jumped for joy when they heard this.

Seeing them so happy, Liu Tangxi also felt very happy.

About half an hour later, Wei Hanzhou came back.

After coming back, Wei Hanzhou glanced at Liu Tangxi.

As a result, he found that Liu Tangxi was thinking about something and did not come over to "ask about his well-being" as usual, as if he did not see him.

Wei Hanzhou felt a little uncomfortable. He pursed his lips and went to the study.

As it was getting dark, an unexpected guest came to Wei Laosan's house.

Zhao family.

Li Xiucai's daughter-in-law and Li Yunxu's mother.

Li and others didn't like Zhao in the first place, and they wanted to cause trouble at his house a few days ago. Now that they saw him in person, their attitude was naturally not very good.

"Oh, who was I at that time? It turned out to be the second aunt of Mr. Li. What wind is blowing that brings you here?" Zhou said sarcastically.

Zhao's face was not looking good to begin with, and she became even more embarrassed when she heard Zhou's voice.

Li heard the noise and came out of the main room. With a gloomy face, she scolded Zhao: "What are you doing here? You are shameless enough to talk about my family's affairs outside. How dare you come to my house again?"

Li and Zhao were of the same generation, and Li's maiden family was from Lijia Village. Therefore, she was familiar with Zhao and could say these words.

Zhao's face looked even uglier, as red as a cooked shrimp.

Her father-in-law is a scholar and is respected by everyone.

She was respected in the surrounding villages and her family was well-off, so she had never been ridiculed like this.

After hearing what Li and Zhou said, her first reaction was to curse back. Even if she didn't curse back, she wanted to turn around and leave. However, thinking of what her father-in-law said before coming here, Zhao didn't dare to do so.

"Well, what are you talking about, elder sister? We are all from the same village. Even if we break bones, we still have tendons."

"Bah! You still know that I am from Lijia Village? If you knew that, why did you slander my daughter-in-law's reputation and slander me, saying that I found a prostitute for my son?"

Li usually has a good temper, but at this moment, when it comes to herself and family matters, she can't help it.

Zhao was so embarrassed that her face turned red.

After being mocked by Li and Zhou for a few more sentences, Zhao endured the embarrassment and asked, "Well, where is the scholar's wife?"

"Why are you looking for my daughter-in-law? Do you want to talk about her to her face?" Li said angrily.

Li thought that her daughter-in-law was good in every way except that she had a bad temper. She was okay with her family members but easily bullied by outsiders. So, even though Zhao had been here for a while, Li did not call her.

"No, no." Zhao waved her hands quickly, "I'm here to apologize."

"Come to apologize?" Zhou asked in surprise.

As he said this, he exchanged glances with Li.

Liu Tangxi was cooking with Zhang at the stove. Bosheng was going to the town to study tomorrow, and she promised to cook him something delicious. At first, she was cooking, and the noise was a bit loud, so she couldn't hear what was said outside.

The food was stewing in the pot at this moment, and Liu Tangxi also heard the quarrel outside.

As Zhang was making a fire, Liu Tangxi said something to her and went out to take a look.

Zhao was being scolded by Li when she suddenly saw Liu Tangxi.

As soon as she saw the real owner coming out, Zhao hurriedly walked towards her, grabbed her hand, and kept apologizing to her.

"I'm sorry, it's all my fault. I didn't understand what was going on before, so I doubted your identity and said bad things about you. Auntie knows I was wrong, and I hope you can forgive me. This is a pair of silver earrings I just bought a few days ago. Although they are not worth much, I hope you can accept them."

Liu Tangxi was startled by Zhao's enthusiasm.

She had been thinking about how to make Zhao apologize to her these past two days, but before she could come up with a solution, she never expected that the other party would come to apologize to her first.

It's like when you are fighting a boss and you haven't decided which weapon to use, but the boss suddenly puts down his weapon, hands over his property, kowtows and admits his mistake.

This feeling really...

Well... although I don’t quite understand why this is happening, it’s still pretty cool.

As for why Zhao was like this, Liu Tangxi didn't believe that she had come to her senses on her own, but someone must have done something.

And she really couldn't think of anyone else except Wei Hanzhou.

Thinking of this, Liu Tangxi looked up at Wei Hanzhou who was standing silently at the door of the study.

Zhao noticed her gaze and turned to look over. When she saw Wei Hanzhou's eyes, she immediately shuddered.

There is nothing Liu Tangxi doesn't understand about this. It must have been Wei Hanzhou who did it.

"I don't want your silver earrings. If you want me to forgive you, then you can go to a crowded place and clarify this matter starting from tomorrow. As long as you can talk about it for three days, then I will forgive you."

Zhao's face suddenly froze.

For someone like her who cares about her reputation, it would be more painful for her to admit her mistake in public than to have her money taken away.

"Why? You don't want to?" Liu Tangxi raised his eyebrows and asked, "Didn't you ruin my reputation in front of many people? Since you did that, you have to clarify it to me in the same way now."

Hearing this, Wei Hanzhou smiled in his heart, but he had the same idea as Li.

My wife is still too kind.

"cough."

While Zhao was thinking, Wei Hanzhou coughed lightly.

Thinking of what Wei Hanzhou had just said at home, Zhao endured the humiliation in her heart and agreed.

After a while, Zhao left, and when Liu Tangxi looked at Wei Hanzhou, a smile returned to his face.

Unexpectedly, although Wei Hanzhou ignored her on the surface, he still helped him in private.

This man is really good.

She had misunderstood him.

She was just about to walk over to express her gratitude, but Wei Hanzhou ignored her, turned around and went to the study and closed the door.

At the same time, Zhang's voice came from behind: "Third sister-in-law, the food in the pot is almost cooked."

Liu Tangxi glanced at the closed study door again and went to work at the stove with a happy look on his face.

After a while, the meal was ready.

I made four dishes and a soup tonight, it was very rich.

Wei Daniu and Wei Erhu would go to the town to work during the day, which consumed their energy, so they would usually cook some hard dishes when they came home at night. In addition, they made a lot of money from selling apples during this period, and Wei Lao San no longer needed to take medicine, so the family saved some money and ate much better than before.

After living together for so long, Liu Tangxi more or less knows Wei Hanzhou's preferences.

So, tonight, I deliberately put the eggplant stew that Wei Hanzhou liked in front of him. Moreover, I even gave him a piece of meat with my chopsticks, which was unprecedented.

"Husband, eat meat."

Zhang and Li would occasionally give their children some flesh, so Liu Tangxi's action was not too abrupt.

However, this was the first time she did this, and at the dinner table, everyone still looked at the couple.

Wei Hanzhou glanced at the piece of meat that suddenly appeared in the bowl, and then looked at Liu Tangxi.

He saw Liu Tangxi looking at him with a smile, and that smile was much more sincere than usual.

After looking at her, Wei Hanzhou said nothing, lowered his head, and put the meat into his mouth.

Seeing that Wei Hanzhou gave him face, Liu Tangxi picked up another dish for him.

During this meal, Liu Tangxi was very attentive, but Wei Hanzhou hardly reached out to take any food.

Mrs. Li looked at her youngest son and daughter-in-law with a smile.

However, as I looked at it, I looked at my daughter-in-law's belly again.

My daughter-in-law has been married for several months, and I don't know when she will get pregnant. Seeing how affectionate they are, maybe they will get pregnant soon. ,,
