"If Xiao Lei had made it, he might have supported other members of the Xiao family to take the top position and consolidate their position. He might even have built a school and a clan temple for us. Now we have all of that gone, all gone!"
The clan leader's wife didn't know how to persuade her husband, she felt very uncomfortable, but it was a pity that the old man who was wholeheartedly for the clan members was probably fried in oil now.
"Is Xiao Lei stupid? Who would rush to be someone's son-in-law? Old man, how can such a stubborn person achieve anything? How can studying be good for him?"
"You don't understand. I've met Xiao Lei several times. This kid is decisive and has a promising future. I've asked the teacher four or five times. He has a natural talent for studying. Dashu is already pretty good, but he's better than Dashu. The teacher said that as long as he is willing to continue taking exams in the future, he will definitely have a chance to become a juren.
Do you think he is stupid? Wouldn't his teacher know whether he can have a promising future? Dashu is not stupid either. Why is he so kind to a door-to-door customer? He must have seen that he has a promising future.
The only real idiots are our Xiao clan, and Xiao Ping is the bastard! From now on, our clan will be the laughing stock of the whole village and the whole county."
Xiao Lei, who refused to come back, would rather be a failure all his life than be laughed at by others.
"This child, how can he be so stubborn! If he likes Xiaoyu, he can just marry her. Why must he sacrifice himself?" The old woman stamped her feet in anxiety.
"I don't want to. The daughter of the Dashu family is very capable. In just a few years, she has Xiao Lei firmly in her hand."
"That family looked honest before, but now everyone seems to be very powerful. Every son-in-law from any family would try desperately to escape, except for their family..."
"They are smart and know how to win people's hearts. Suppression will only backfire." The patriarch murmured to himself. There was no trace of the mule cart at the door anymore. He felt empty inside.
What should I do?
………………
When I returned to the Zhao family, Zhao Xiaoyu was accompanying Li Xi to fly a kite outside. Li Xi had grown a lot taller, and her face had grown bigger, with a lot of baby fat on her oval face.
Xiaoyu has devoted all her energy to the research and development of new rice and wheat varieties in the past two years. She did not give them to the county magistrate because the yield was too high and it would be too great to give them to the county magistrate. She also wanted to find a way to make the seeds more ordinary and reduce the yield.
I have never heard of anyone worrying about the problem of overproduction of rice seeds. His wife is amazing.
In fact, he didn't know how Zhao Xiaoyu could make high-yield rice seeds out of her space. She couldn't tell people that only she could make such seeds, right? The court would definitely ask her for a solution, so in the past two years, she has devoted herself to being Grandpa Yuan and devoted herself to the research and development of rice and wheat seeds.
"I'm back."
"Well, why don't you ask the clan leader what I did?"
Zhao Xiaoyu pulled the kite string and handed it to Li Xi, "So what do you think Clan Leader Xiao wants you to do? Is it to help you take the exam and win glory for the clan, or does Xiao Ping miss you?"
Xiao Lei looked into her bright and clear eyes, and the depression in his heart suddenly dissipated. Why should he be angry with such an insignificant person?
He reached out to help Zhao Xiaoyu tidy up her long hair that was messed up by the wind, "They want me to break off the engagement with you, saying that the tribe will provide for me."
Oh, the black hen is fattened up and is ready to steal eggs from my nest. Chief Xiao is very calculating.
"how do you say?"
"What else can I say? He treats them as bullshit.
"Pfft!" This guy has been with his dad for a long time, and his personality doesn't seem to be as introverted as before, which is good.
"Go back, study hard and take the exam, so that all those who looked down on you in the past will be dazzled."
"I will definitely make you proud."
Xiao Lei gave her the illusion that he was in a training system. Did their genders switch?
"Li Xi, let's not let him go. I'll make you some delicious food!"
"Big sister, are you doing this for me or for Brother Lei Zi?"
