When Xiao Lei entered the room, Zhao Xiaoyu had already woken up, but was still a little sleepy.
Seeing Xiao Lei, "You're here!"
Xiao Lei took two steps to the bedside and held the person in his arms. "You are finally here. What took you so long?"
"There are so many people, we have to wait until everyone is done. Dad also made a donation to the county magistrate, so it's been delayed for a few days."
"A lot of people?"
"Yeah, didn't you see it just now? Grandpa and the others are here, as well as Uncle Shunzi's family and Uncle Huzi's family. Are they still sleeping?"
"I don't know. I didn't notice. When I saw so many carriages, I knew you were coming. I was only thinking about seeing you and didn't pay attention to anything else."
"They should be awake by now. Let's go out and take a look."
Anyway, it was almost time for dinner and she woke up.
"Okay, is everything going well for the Xi family?"
"That's great! We made a lot of river gourd sauce this year, so we can make a lot of money."
"You've worked hard, so you should take a good rest for a few days. Since grandpa and the others are coming this time, they shouldn't be busy during the New Year, right?"
"I'll probably be spending the New Year at home. It'll snow heavily soon, and the roads won't be easy to travel on."
"That's right. Their legs and feet hurt when it's cold, so it's better to wait until spring to go out. Grandpa Qian is the same. He often stays indoors when it gets cold. He was really frozen in the early years."
Yes, before, we didn’t even have a piece of thick clothing at home, and we had to carry everything by ourselves.
"They all have cold legs. They really suffer when it's cold, and they also suffer when it rains."
She suspected that Xiao Lei had it too, because he used to wear very thin clothes.
Fortunately, I am young, and if I take good care of myself in my old age, there shouldn’t be any problems.
"You guys finally came out. Xiao Lei was so anxious just now that he didn't even notice us in front of him."
"That's right, Xiaoyu, your Lei Zi only has you in his heart and eyes."
Zhao Xiaoyu blushed. Why were these people so blunt in their words?
"Grandpa, Grandma!" Xiao Lei was also a little embarrassed. Why were they standing in front of him just now? They should have been on the other side of the yard, but were blocked by the carriage.
"I'm sorry I didn't see you guys just now. Did it have a hard time on the way here?"
"Not tired. How's studying? Is there a lot of homework at the academy?"
"It's okay, I can handle it."
Liu Shunzi and Hu Zi looked at Xiao Lei, then at the few annoying things in their own home.
"You all should learn from Lei Zi. Didn't you listen to what your aunt said? He gets up before dawn to recite his lessons and still studies at night."
Several children turned their heads and pretended not to hear. If they had this much perseverance, they would have passed the examination and become students.
Studying and memorizing is really boring. They don’t like it, they really don’t like it. They would rather catch frogs in the fields and roast them for food.
Zhao Xiaoyu knew very well that she should not let others compare with Xiao Lei, especially the poor students who hated their parents comparing them with the top students. Whoever wanted to read the book could read it.
"Mom, is the meal ready? I'm hungry."
"Alright, alright, let's go, it's so cold outside, don't stay out all the time. It's been snowing lightly these past two days, so I'll take you out for some fun after the weather clears up in a couple of days."
Liu Shunzi pursed his lips. In fact, he wanted to let the children study with Qian Youfu from now on. It was better than having a crazy family all over the yard.
Let’s talk about it later. We have to tell them whether they like it or not. Let them do whatever they want.
They didn't know what was going on with their families, but none of their children were outstanding, and none of them could compare to Qian Lai Fu and Xiao Lei.
At the beginning, everyone was very enthusiastic about studying and vowed to pass the imperial examination or something. But later on, the more they studied, the worse they became and the more they disliked studying.
I don’t know if they are stupid or the teacher invited the wrong person.
His wife said that because of him, he didn't like studying and it affected the children, so Dashu could accompany Xiao Lei to study together.
But fortunately, even if they didn’t like it, they didn’t give up and forced themselves to read it again.
That’s great, maybe Bibi can become a successful person.
There were three tables for people of all ages in the family, one for men, one for women, and one for children.
Wow, their house is really lively.
"Xiao Lei, congratulations."
Qian Youfu leaned closer and congratulated him in a low voice.
"What good news?" My daughter-in-law is coming home? It's really a great joy.
