Lu Shao saw his young wife's eyes sparkling.

I knew she was trying to trick his father's family again.

As for how to trick her, he roughly guessed it from her question.

She wanted to start with his father's habit of taking things away from his hometown.

He thought for a moment and said, "Marry me now, and I will try my best to give you a good life."

"Do whatever you want, and I'll be your support."

He would work hard on scientific studies and make money so that his young wife could live a good life.

Qiao Ye found that this young husband was quite responsible.

She smiled and said, "Okay, I believe you!"

"But I will fight alongside you, and we will work together to live a good life."

Lu Shao's heart was moved again. No one had ever said such words to him before.

Fighting side by side and working hard together, this feeling of companionship is more beautiful than love words.

He smiled and said, "Okay, I believe you too!"

Qiao Ye thought for a while and asked, "Since we are husband and wife, we still have to work together from now on."

"Then tell me about your respective plans for the future?"

"Let me start by saying that I plan to find a way to make money and improve my food and accommodation first."

Although it is said that the Lu family is one of the best families in the village.

But the courtyards we live in are all adobe houses. If it rains, the courtyards will turn into mud if you step on them.

The toilet is outside and it's not very clean.

There is no separate place to take a shower.

She lives in a modern villa with someone to clean and cook for her.

It is really hard to bear this kind of accommodation conditions.

Moreover, the food at the Lu family’s home was also very poor, after all, all the good food had been moved away.

She needs to take good care of her body.

The Lu family was indeed well off in the village, but their money and belongings were taken advantage of and sent to the county town to be used by the scumbag father-in-law and his family to live a good life.

She only had this set of clothes on her body. She came directly from her mother's home to the Lu family and brought nothing with her.

I was too lazy to go back to my parents' house to get the other two sets of clothes that were even more tattered.

Since you said you want to cut off ties with your mother's family, naturally you should have no contact with them starting today.

If she doesn't go back to get even a single needle or thread, the Qiao family won't be able to take advantage of her in the slightest.

So the first thing that comes to mind is the issue of food, clothing and housing.

Before Lu Shao died in his previous life, he had good food and accommodation, and was even served by servants.

I feel a little uncomfortable with the living and eating environment after coming back suddenly.

He also wanted to improve this first.

"I plan to write a storybook to make some money to improve our lives."

"I will continue to take part in the Tongsheng exam next February."

"After passing the exam to become a scholar, I plan to continue taking exams."

He has always loved reading, and taking the imperial examination and becoming an official was a regret and obsession in his previous life.

So later, no matter whether he was in trouble or lived a comfortable life, he never threw away his books.

I have been reading books on scientific examinations and studying questions.

If there is something I don’t understand, I will ask others for help.

Therefore, he was still very confident in his scientific expedition this time.

Seeing Lu Shao's great confidence, Qiao Ye asked, "You are very confident about passing the examination for Tongsheng and Xiucai this time, right?"

Lu Shao nodded, "If nothing unexpected happens, I will definitely pass the exam and become a scholar this time."

Qiao Ye thought for a moment and asked, "I heard that you took the Tongsheng exam twice, but you fell ill and gave up the exam each time."

"Is there something wrong?"

He looked at his husband's health and found that he was not so weak that he would fall ill from time to time.

It took more than two hours to walk from the village to the county town, but he was still full of energy.

So in the previous exam, it was most likely the stepmother-in-law and others who did something bad.

Otherwise it would not be such a coincidence that I would fall ill every time I went to take the examination.

Lu Shao found that his young wife was very smart and she thought of this right away.

He said without hiding anything: "During the two previous examinations, I lived in the county town, and my sister would specially make chicken soup for me."

"My grades have always been better than Lu Zhoujin's. I know all the answers to those questions."

"If I hadn't had a stomachache and couldn't continue the exam, I would have passed the Tongsheng exam."

Because he was on guard against his stepmother, he paid close attention to the food at home.

He would only pick up dishes that Lu Zhoujin had picked up, and would not eat or drink alone the food sent by his stepmother.

But on both occasions, his sister made chicken soup for him out of concern.

It was the night before the exam.

In his previous life, he was not on guard and was somewhat happy about his sister's concern.

Who would have thought that her elder sister's concern might have ulterior motives.

Qiao Ye was speechless, "Your sister is really hard to describe."

"If it happened just once, it could be considered a coincidence, but if it happened twice, it's not certain."

Without evidence, we cannot draw a complete conclusion.

But she felt that there was most likely something wrong with the chicken soup that Lu Mei gave to Lu Shao.

She added, "I think she will give you chicken soup for your exam this time."

"Take it and inspect it carefully when the time comes."

"If there really is something inside, let's make it public and let everyone know."

Looking at Lu Mei's condition today, she knew there was no way she would be willing to break off relations with her brother.

It will definitely come back later.

After all, she is Lu Shao’s biological sister. If she keeps being humble, people outside will definitely talk about her.

But if the fact of adding ingredients is exposed, no matter what Lu Shao does, no one will talk about it anymore.

After all, who would dare to want a sister who would ruin her younger brother's future?

If a married woman did such a thing, she would be despised and shunned, not to mention in ancient times, even in modern times.

Lu Shao nodded in agreement, "I thought so too."

In my previous life, I drank chicken soup and had a stomachache during an exam, which made me unable to continue.

He didn't think of suspecting his closest relatives, so he didn't check whether there was any problem with the chicken soup.

There is no evidence to prove that the chicken soup was adulterated.

So this time, he also wanted to know the answer.

If his sister attacked again, he would not be soft-hearted and let her go.

Qiao Ye complained: "If you pass the exam to become a scholar, or even a juren or jinshi, wouldn't it be very beneficial to her?"

"When the time comes, you can support her, and her husband's family won't dare to bully her!"

"If she really planted the seeds, what did she want? To get the favor of the stepmother?"

Lu Shao said: "Compared to my brother having a promising future, she would rather her husband pass the imperial examination and become a scholar."

"The stepmother and my father can help her husband, so it's not a difficult choice for her."

His stepmother didn't want to see him succeed and wished he would stay in the village forever. His father was almost the same, so in order to please the two of them, his sister naturally gave up on her biological brother.

This is what he saw through later.

Every time his sister made a choice, she treated him as a sacrifice, or even as a stepping stone to please the other side.

Qiao Ye found that Lu Shao was quite miserable.

His biological father doesn't love him, his stepmother, stepbrothers and stepsisters are vicious, and even his biological sister wants to harm him.

She comforted him: "It's okay, it's hard before it's sweet, your good days are still ahead."

Judging from Lu Shao's expression, he didn't seem sad or upset. He probably had accepted this heartbreaking fact.

Lu Shao chuckled and said, "Well, we all suffer first and then enjoy the sweetness."

He looked at Qiao Ye and said, "I still have a little money left. I'll take you to buy two sets of clothes tomorrow."

The clothes the young wife wore had many patches on them and were washed so much that they looked shabby and worn.

I guess the clothes left at the Qiao family are all similar.

Bought it again.
