Chapter 41: Help Li Ziyan Pass the Imperial Examination
Zhao Junning thought: In her last life, she thought it was fun to travel the world. In this life, she doesn't know martial arts, but it's not bad to have this abacus in her hand. In her last life, she didn't fulfill her dream of doing business, so it's not bad to be able to fulfill it in this life. Fuling scratched her head and walked to Zhao Junning and squatted down: "Miss, you should take a rest. We'll calculate tomorrow! I feel bad for your health if you stay up like this every day. You only ate a small bite of the meal today."
Zhao Junning said, "Just for a moment." Fuling lowered her head: "Okay."
Zhao Junning said to Fuling, "I'll be here for a while, you go to sleep." Fuling stood up and said, "Okay, Miss, you should go to bed early."
Zhao Junning nodded: "I see." After settling the bill, Zhao Junning walked to the bed and went to sleep. As usual, the candles in the room were not extinguished. When Li Ziyan returned to the room, the food was still hot and the candles were lit like the day before.
On the fifth day, Zhao Junning walked into the gambling house and threw two boxes of silver to the gambling house owner. Several experts stood behind him. Zhao Junning said to the gambling house owner: "Boss, this bag of silver means I have booked this gambling house."
The boss looked at the pile of silver and said, "Okay, okay." Then he walked to the gambling tables and said, "Everyone, the gambling house is booked today. Come back next time."
The people who were gambling walked out of the gambling house unhappily. Li Ziyan looked at the scene and said, "Who is so disappointing?" The three of them looked at the door and saw Zhao Junning and Fuling. Behind them were all the masters of the Marquis' Mansion. Zhao Junning smiled and walked over and said, "Husband, did you have enough fun? Are you going home?"
Li Ziyan said, "Zhao Junning, I told you to leave me alone, why are you here?" Zhao Junning pointed to the two boxes of silver at the entrance of the gambling house and said, "I'm here to gamble with my husband. There are two boxes of my husband's private money. If you beat me today, take the money back and I will never care about you again in the future."
Li Ziyan asked, "Do you keep your word?" Zhao Junning nodded. Xu Wenhe and Shen Congwen approached and said, "I feel a chill." The two began to gamble. The dice rolled, and Li Ziyan won all five times. Li Ziyan smiled and said, "How about it, Zhao Junning, I won."
Zhao Junning smiled and said, "My husband is amazing. I won't control him anymore. I hope he has fun."
Zhao Junning turned around and left the gambling house. Fuling followed behind her, somewhat puzzled: "Miss, aren't we here to catch the son-in-law and take him home?" Zhao Junning said, "We caught him. He will come back, and he will never come to the gambling house again."
When Zhao Junning was about to return to the room, he said to Fuling, "We'll heat up the food and bring it over like we did in the past."
Fuling said, "Miss, your son-in-law comes home so late every day and doesn't even think about you, but you still leave food for him and keep the candles lit." When she reached the door, Zhao Junning said, "He is him and I am me."
Li Ziyan walked into the house and looked at Zhao Junning with a smile. Fuling saw Li Ziyan and took a deep breath: "Son-in-law!" Li Ziyan said: "Fuling, go down. You don't need to heat up the food."
After Fuling heard the order, Zhao Junning walked into the house and said in a gentle tone: "Husband, why are you home so early today? Why don't you play for a while?" Li Ziyan said: "No, it's boring." Zhao Junning said: "Oh." Li Ziyan said: "Zhao Junning, I've been out for so long, you really don't care about me?"
Zhao Junning said, "Didn't Langjun say today that if you win, I won't let me take care of you?" Li Ziyan said, "I'm just saying it, are you really not going to take care of me?" Zhao Junning looked at Li Ziyan, "Then Langjun wants me to take care of you?"
Li Ziyan fell silent. Zhao Junning brought a few books. "The Li family has been officials for generations, both military and literary. I have asked my father-in-law. My husband is good at martial arts but doesn't like being a general. So he can be a civil official. But I have also seen your results in the provincial examination last year. They were very poor. So my husband should memorize these books. There will be another provincial examination next year. How about my husband work hard to get a good name during this period?"
Li Ziyan stood up after hearing this and said, "Zhao Junning, you are taking this opportunity to take revenge on me! You knew I had already failed the exam, but you still made me take it on purpose to embarrass me."
Zhao Junning also stood up and said, "Husband, don't you believe in yourself? Husband is only seventeen this year and will be eighteen next year. I believe in husband. Husband, don't you believe in yourself?"
Li Ziyan said: "I...of course I believe it. But Zhao Junning has so many books, do you really think I can do it?"
Zhao Junning nodded: "Yes." Li Ziyan said: "Okay, I believe in myself too."
Zhao Junning smiled and said to Li Ziyan: "Ziyan, you don't have to study tomorrow and accompany me to the door, but you have to help me." Li Ziyan put on airs: "You want me to help you?"
Zhao Junning nodded: "As long as you are willing to help me, you can ask for any conditions." Li Ziyan played with his belt: "Do you keep your word?"
Zhao Junning nodded. Li Ziyan did not dare to raise big conditions. After all, he was afraid of Zhao Junning. He rubbed his shoulders and said, "Oh, I've been so tired these days. My shoulders are a little sore."
Zhao Junning thought: If you roll the dice too much, you will get tired. Then she walked behind Li Ziyan with a smile and said, "Let me pinch it for you." Li Ziyan also stopped when he saw that he was ahead.
Li Ziyan said, "Don't worry, I will definitely help you. Tell me how I can help you." Zhao Junning pinched his shoulder and said, "Tomorrow is our family dinner. We are returning home and my uncles are back. They are all very nice, but my aunts who are not related to me are more difficult to deal with and will say some unpleasant things. Also, my aunt and great-aunt will make things difficult for me. And my two cousins who are not related to me are more like crazy girls."
After hearing this, Li Ziyan asked: "So you are worried that you will be jealous if your cousins like me?"
Zhao Junning blushed, and Li Ziyan said, "Don't worry, ma'am. Your husband is smart and will handle it. As for your cousins, don't worry. Tomorrow I will definitely not have anyone else in my eyes except you." Zhao Junning nodded.
Zhao Junning was using an abacus to calculate the accounts and looking at the account book. Li Ziyan was watching from the table beside her. Zhao Junning did not look up and asked, "My husband, have you had your meal yet?"
Li Ziyan said: "I have used it."
Zhao Junning stopped talking. At the time of Xu, Zhao Junning was still using the abacus. Li Ziyan was reading a book beside her. After reading for a while, Li Ziyan turned his head to look at Zhao Junning. Zhao Junning had fallen asleep on the table. Li Ziyan stood up, stretched his waist, walked to Zhao Junning and gently patted him: "Hey Zhao Junning, wake up and go to bed."
Zhao Junning was sleeping too soundly to be woken up, so Li Ziyan had to pick her up, walked to the bed, gently put her down, took off her shoes and covered her with a quilt. Zhao Junning frowned and then relaxed, muttering, "Li Ziyan, I'm so happy that you married me, but why don't you like me... You big bastard, I don't want to like you anymore... But I have no choice."
Li Ziyan put his ear close to Zhao Junning and heard what Zhao Junning was muttering, and then he said to himself: "She really likes me! This girl is so affectionate."
When Li Ziyan was about to leave, Zhao Junning grabbed the corner of his clothes. Li Ziyan squatted down gently, slowly pushed Zhao Junning's fingers away from the corner of his clothes, then walked to the candle and blew out the candle in the room, then went to the bed and fell asleep.
