The beloved baby has a space

Chapter 493 Go to Fucheng

Changfu was shocked. Did this family actually want to arrange a marriage between them and the registrar?

Don't underestimate the clerk. Nowadays, imperial power doesn't extend to the countryside. In the local area, the county magistrate is like a local patriarch, and that title is even more useful than that of the emperor.

The chief clerk was in charge of all documents, and those who had previously worked as stewards dealt with the chief clerk the most.

Don't underestimate him just because he's only a ninth-rank official; the scope of his jurisdiction is vast. Every document, contract, and receipt must pass through his eyes.

It seems his family is not simple either.

He had never heard of a farmer marrying an official before.

"Uncle Fu, do you think there's anything wrong with this?" Wang Dalang explained their process and then asked Changfu.

Changfu then came to his senses and quickly said, "There's nothing wrong with that. If possible, adding a set of writing materials and a painting of magpies on branches would be even better."

Wang Dalang then took this question to ask Old Mrs. Wang.

Grandma Wang said, "Changfu will stay at home and be at your service in the future. You can listen to his advice, but you must not let him control you. Remember, you are the master."

After listening to what he had said, Wang Dalang nodded repeatedly and then took the things that Changfu had told him to go and find Feng Shi.

After discussing it for a while, the mother and son went to see Old Mrs. Wang again to ask for money to buy things.

Grandma Wang handed Feng a key and said, "After the children pass their exams, I will take Ayu to the prefectural city. I will entrust you with the household expenses for now. This is the key to the storeroom. There is another set in town, which I will give to you later. Whether you keep it for yourself or give it to your daughter-in-law is up to you."

Madam Feng was startled: "Mother, are you leaving?"

When her mother-in-law suddenly relinquished power, Madam Feng felt no joy whatsoever.

With an elderly woman taking care of things at home, they only need to follow along and don't need to think much about it.

Now that the old lady is leaving, Feng feels a sense of emptiness. Before, when the old lady was in town, she didn't care much about the village, but that had a different meaning and a different feeling.

I feel like I've been abandoned.

"Don't put on that act, I'm not dead yet!" Old Mrs. Wang tapped Feng's forehead with her index finger. "You're going to be a mother-in-law soon. If your daughter-in-law sees you being dominated by your mother-in-law, how will you establish your authority in the future?"

Grandma Wang didn't want to see her grandchildren bullying her sons in the future.

If this continues, the house will inevitably fall into chaos.

Therefore, the most important thing is to train everyone in the family to respect elders and juniors, and to let them think and act independently.

Feng left in a daze with the key, while little Ayu sat on Old Mrs. Wang's bed, swinging her little feet back and forth.

"Grandma, are we going to go outside from now on? But didn't you say we shouldn't go out before my birthday?" Little Ayu still remembered what Grandma Wang had said.

Grandma Wang said, "After your brothers finish the preliminary examination, Grandma will take you to the prefectural city. It's more lively there, with more fun things to do, delicious food, and beautiful clothes."

"What if my brothers don't pass the exam? Will we still go? Will I have to go to school in the prefectural city?" Little Ayu thought about this possibility and found it a little funny. "My brothers have been studying very hard lately. The other day, I asked them to come with me to sell silkworms, and they both said they wanted to study at home!"

Grandma Wang snorted: "If they can't pass the exam, they can keep trying. I'll take you with me. You don't need to go to a regular school. I'll hire a tutor for you to come to our house. You won't have to learn those useless things."

If you're going to learn something, learn it thoroughly. There's no need to make Ayu learn alongside that bunch of good-for-nothings who just coast along.

If we're talking about the whole family, the only one who truly doesn't resist studying is Ayu.

Ayu hasn't encountered any learning difficulties yet; she learns everything quickly, which is praised by everyone, so naturally she's very interested.

After teasing little Ayu, Grandma Wang patted her and said, "Go out and play first, and call your second aunt over."
