Chapter 51 Chapter 51 (4/5)



"Oh, your corn is ripe." Chen Yanan nodded.

Qin Zhao asked, "It's still early, why are you going to the private school so early?"

"I have a few questions for you, sir. If I don't go early, I might miss them before class." Chen Yan'an sighed. "My sister-in-law said you're not fully recovered yet, so she doesn't want me to disturb your rest."

Qin Zhao: "..."

No wonder Chen Yanan hadn't come to see him for these days. It turned out that he was stopped.

That little fish has also learned to bully people.

Because of his life-saving grace, Qin Zhao had always been kind to Chen Yan'an. He said gently, "I'm feeling well now. If you have any questions, come find me on your day off."

Chen Yanan's eyes lit up: "Really?"

He suddenly thought of something and shook his head: "I'm afraid this day off won't work."

Qin Zhao: "What?"

"The holiday in three days is Mid-Autumn Festival. The scholars in town are holding a Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival, and all the students in our private school have to go." Chen Yan'an said with a bitter face, "But I can't write poetry at all..."

Qin Zhao understood.

Mid-Autumn Festival poetry gatherings were a tradition among scholars. Although he had never participated, he had heard of them. As for Chen Yan'an's poetry skills, Qin Zhao had helped him with his studies several times, but the results... naturally, were hard to describe.

Apart from anything else, this person has almost no talent for poetry.

Qin Zhao didn't comment, but Chen Yan'an suddenly grabbed his arm and said, "Brother Qin, you can write poetry, right?"

Chen Yanan's eyes lit up: "Do you want to go with me?"

Qin Zhao: "..."

Chen Yanan continued to persuade him, "Almost all the scholars in the town will attend the Mid-Autumn Poetry Festival. Most of them are preparing to take the Tongsheng Examination next year. The Tongsheng Examination has a limited number of admissions. Knowing yourself and your enemy will ensure victory in every battle!"

Qin Zhao shook her head: "I have to stay at home with my husband."

It was his first Mid-Autumn Festival with Xiaoyu, and he didn't want to leave her alone at home.

Moreover, the little guy is so attached to him now, he must be reluctant to be separated from him.

"You can bring your family to the poetry gathering!" Chen Yan'an said. "Besides, the poetry gathering is on the afternoon of Mid-Autumn Festival, so it's just in time for the temple fair in the evening. There will be lantern displays and riddles. Isn't that better than spending Mid-Autumn Festival in the village?"

Qin Zhao was vaguely moved.

Indeed, Xiaoyu often complained that there was nothing fun to do in the village. If only he could be taken to the temple fair...

"Okay."

Chen Yanan's eyes just lit up when he heard Qin Zhao say again: "I'll go home and ask him if he's willing."

Chen Yanan: “…………”

Isn't it the head of the family who makes the final decision on matters like this? Why does this person have to ask her husband for everything?

Chen Yanan felt somewhat helpless, but he didn't know what to say, so he said, "Okay, tell me when you have a plan. I have to hurry to town, otherwise it will be too late."

The two said goodbye and Qin Zhao went straight home.

There was no one in the yard. In the pond, a bright red koi fish flashed under the water.

The little koi raised its head, a red light appeared in the yard, and it turned back into a young boy.

Jing Li climbed the edge of the pool with his two bare arms, most of his body was still hidden under the water, and below the waist he had no legs, but a bright red fish tail.

He transformed from a fish back into a human without wearing any clothes, and was embarrassed to show his full body in front of Qin Zhao.

Jing Li's slender fish tail gently slapped the water surface and whispered, "You're back."

Seeing the scene clearly, Qin Zhao paused for a moment and nodded naturally, "Yes, we sold four carts of straw."
