Zhou Muzhi was so heartbroken that his heart was about to bleed.
"Did that bitch Zhao Taohua really say that?" Zhou Muzhi asked gritting his teeth.
"Could it be fake? Everyone heard it, wuwuwu..." Ye Xiyan cried as if she was going to faint.
"I killed that bitch."
Zhou Muzhi seemed to have suffered the greatest humiliation. He roared, turned around and tried to run out, his eyes red with anger.
"Don't worry."
Unexpectedly, Ye Xiyan, who was crying out of breath, held Zhou Muzhi tightly. She was not crying to make Zhou Muzhi take revenge on her impulsively.
Just to let him know how much injustice I have suffered for him.
He was able to fight for his own life, and that was enough.
"Xi Yan, as a man, how can I swallow this? How can I watch you suffer injustice? I, Zhou Muzhi, married you to treat you well," Zhou Muzhi said sadly.
Ye Xiyan shook her head, then nodded, and said, "I understand, but the Zhao family are all bandits. What if you get hurt by them? I would be heartbroken. Muzhi, you are a scholar, you are Mingyu. How can Mingyu go against Shitou? For your future, we will accept you. When you pass the imperial examination and become an official, they will not dare to bully us anymore."
Although she was clearly speaking up for her, Ye Xiyan spoke as if she was thinking about Zhou Muzhi.
Perhaps this is the art of speaking.
Zhou Muzhi was deeply moved when he heard this. He never thought Xiyan would love and protect him so much. Having Xiyan in this life is enough.
"Okay, I will study hard and become an official in the future. No one will dare to bully you. When the time comes, I will give you whatever you want."
The couple each painted a big picture for the other.
However, only Zhou Muzhi felt a little uneasy, because after studying hard for a period of time, he had gradually woken up from the arrogance of passing the imperial examination.
His talent is at best average. If he wants to improve, he needs to go to a larger province to study.
Even with first-class teachers, one still has to study hard for at least two or three years to have a chance of passing the imperial examination.
Therefore, he knew better than anyone else that the big pie he promised at this moment would be difficult to realize, but he didn't want Ye Xiyan to be sad and disappointed.
Ye Xiyan only needs to put pressure on him. She believes in her own judgment. Zhou Muzhi is definitely not an ordinary person. She will definitely be able to make a fortune.
This is an indescribable trust.
"Muzhi, there is no time to lose. Let's pack up and go to the county tomorrow. There are better teachers and colleagues there. You can also visit the scholars and study together. There is a wide world outside. Why should we lock ourselves up in the countryside? It's like being in a toilet. Everywhere we look is filth. I really don't want to face it," said Ye Xiyan.
Zhou Muzhi also thought it made sense.
But she had her reasons for not leaving. She hadn't been able to tell Ye Xiyan before, so now she hesitated and said, "We'll be leaving in ten days. I have other important things to do in these ten days."
"What's the big deal?"
Zhou Muzhi showed a bit of hesitation and said, "There's an elder in my family who's going to be celebrating his 60th birthday in a few days. These few days won't make a difference..."
"I'm afraid it's not because of this?"
Ye Xiyan's face turned cold. She could tell that Zhou Muzhi was lying.
Seeing that he couldn't deceive Ye Xiyan, Zhou Muzhi sighed and had to tell the truth: "I'm afraid you won't believe me. I've had a dream since I was a child. In the dream, I fell into a cave. There was a spirit ball there. If I eat the spirit ball, I will have an epiphany and fly into the sky..."
