The time arrangement is very simple.
"Xiaoyu, did your father tell us to go with the teacher this time? There is still a long time before the exam, wouldn't it be better if there is someone to teach them on the way?"
"We'll go together, but only the master will go with us. His family won't go with us because they're afraid of causing trouble for us."
Song sighed, "Come to think of it, they haven't been home for several years."
"Yes, mother. I heard from father that the teacher will leave our house after he comes back from accompanying them to the exam." Dad no longer has a teacher, so he may have to find someone else to come when he goes to the provincial capital this time.
Song was shocked, "Why? Why didn't your father tell me?"
"Maybe you didn't ask, but you know how busy and hardworking he has been recently. It was only because I asked that he mentioned it."
Indeed, it seems that I will snore as soon as I lie down when I am tired.
"What will we do without the Master?"
"Find another one. He plans to take the imperial examination next year, so he has to go to the academy to study. There isn't much time left."
"Is that so? Do we still need to continue the exam?"
Zhao Xiaoyu actually really hopes that the teacher will continue to take the exam. If he really passes, his father and Xiao Lei, as his students, will have an extra bargaining chip. When the time comes, they can ask him for advice, which will increase their chances of success.
"Of course. He studied hard for so many years. He was poor before, but now he has enough money. Naturally, he wants to try harder."
If you put your efforts into it, you can turn an ox cart into a horse carriage, which is a great deal.
"Xiao Yu, do you think your father and his friends can win? Your sister-in-law Zheng told me that everyone in the village is talking about them now, and they are all waiting to see what happens. There are also some who want to see us make a fool of ourselves."
"Everyone should leave it to fate. Everyone is talked about behind their backs. It's fine if we don't hear a word.
But if Xiao Lei fails this time, the Xiao clan will not continue to keep a close eye on him."
The Song family was also angry at those shameless people.
"They want to be beautiful, and everyone can pick up ready-made things. Lei Zi is not stupid."
"It's not normal. If Dad had been Grandpa's son-in-law, and Grandpa was even more powerful than Chief Xiao, how many people would have been able to bring honor to the family? It took more than ten generations for our village to produce a scholar like Grandpa. Look at who in the village didn't respect him. If they mess up and let others take advantage of them, wouldn't they be laughed at for several lifetimes?"
"You're right. Fortunately, Lei Zi is not a soft-hearted person. He has his own opinions."
Zhao Xiaoyu smiled. He had done nothing in the past and watched Xiao Yu bully him while pretending to be deaf and dumb. These were all the consequences of his actions.
However, the Zhao clan got a great bargain, and the clan leader got a great bargain. Compared with Clan Leader Xiao, he is not as good as Clan Leader Xiao.
The next morning.
It was still pitch dark when Li pulled Zhao Zhaodi up from the kang and asked her to put on makeup. She cried until most of the night and now only a slit remained of her eyes, which were swollen like walnuts.
Li felt sorry for her and applied cold water to reduce the swelling. "Tell me, what will your in-laws think of you after you cried like this?"
"Applying it on the skin should help, right?"
Zhaodi didn't know what she looked like now, but her eyes were stinging and she couldn't open them.
