"How long will it take? Do you need me to contact the bookstore for you?"

Ye Chenjing took another bite of food with his chopsticks and said, "No, we need to compile it into a book, proofread it a few times, and find professionals to help. It will take at least a month."

Ye Qing calculated the time and realized that after compiling this book, there would still be more than half a year before the exam.

If you have enough time, you should be able to make a small profit.

Build up a reputation this year and officially start selling next year.

Ye Chenjing and his colleagues wanted to publish the book as soon as possible, which required printing and shipping to major bookstores, all of which took time.

If there are problems with the books, they still have time to revise them.

After Ye Chenjing finished his meal, he washed up and went to bed.

The next morning, after breakfast, Zhou went to see Old Madam Jiang.

"Madam, how is your health recently?" Zhou asked first.

"It's fine. Doctor Lin came to check on me yesterday and there's no big problem." Old Madam Jiang was sitting under a tree in the yard, talking to Zhou.

"I asked you to come here this time because I have found some clues about the matter you asked me to find out last time."

Zhou's voice was a little excited. "Whose girl is she? As long as she doesn't despise us, what else can we say?"

Madam Jiang asked someone to serve tea to Zhou. "This girl is the granddaughter of my eldest brother from my mother's family. My mother's family's surname is Zhao, and it is also a scholarly family. My nephews are also scholars."

When Zhou heard that the girl's family was so well-off, she felt a little scared.

She had never doubted the girl's character. Just by looking at Old Madam Jiang, she could tell that the Zhao family had a good tradition.

Zhou thought about it and asked.

"How old is the girl?"

Old Madam Jiang felt a little pity when she thought of Zhao Ke.

"He's sixteen this year, but he hasn't arranged a marriage yet because he said before that the family has married the daughter of the Shangfeng family."

Zhou felt a little distressed when she heard about the girl's experience.

A girl's blooming period is only a few years. If she delays, she will face the risk of being arranged a marriage by the government.

Zhou thought of the Ye family's financial situation and said, "Madam, we are all farmers. Will Miss Zhao be unable to adapt?"

Madam Jiang looked at Zhou and agreed somewhat. "How can I not adapt? Our family is not a wealthy one. We have a farm and several scholars at home. We have to be frugal in life."

Zhou's expression relaxed a little. They would rather find someone who is well-matched so that the couple can be together for a long time.

Zhou was not sure which child in the family Mrs. Jiang had taken a fancy to, as the three sisters-in-law went together.

Old Madam Jiang was in a dilemma, as the Ye family's children were all very outstanding and were now scholars.

Old Madam Jiang thought of her brother's letter. They were worried that there would be trouble in the marriage and wanted to get married as soon as possible.

Zhou was very tactful and mentioned several children of appropriate age in the family. Ye Chenyi was 19 years old, Ye Chenze and Ye Chenjing were 17 years old, all of them were suitable candidates.

Old Madam Jiang pondered for a moment. Ye Chenjing was editing a book at home and had no time to visit her home recently.

Ye Chenze and Ye Chenyi are more suitable, as they are both in the provincial capital, and the Zhao family is also in the provincial capital.

At first, the Zhao family didn't like the Ye family. They were farmers and didn't want their daughters to suffer.

But after hearing Master Jiang talk about the character of the Ye family’s children and that the Ye family is very ambitious, I felt a little moved.

Now I will accompany my brother-in-law to suffer for a few years, and then I will enjoy the good life with him in the future.

"My eldest brother and his family are all in the city. Let the two children in the city come to our house and have a look. My eldest brother has always wanted to meet these children. He likes young men who read books the most."

Zhou understood, and the Zhao family also needed to see if it was appropriate before continuing the discussion.

Although I felt a little regretful that Goro was not selected and I felt a little disappointed, I could accept it after thinking about it. After all, my son is still two years old and I can talk about it slowly.

When Zhou returned home, she first told Old Man Ye and Mrs. Li about the matter and asked for their opinions.

Old Man Ye was very knowledgeable. He knew that marrying a virtuous wife would bring prosperity to three generations. They also wanted to go to the provincial capital to inquire about the Zhao family.

“Go and visit them first. More connections mean more paths. Even if it doesn’t work out, we can still be friends.” Old Man Ye agreed in his heart.

Boss Ye didn't have any objection, so Zhou went to find Shen and Wei.

The two sisters-in-law were very excited after hearing this, and they pulled Ye Lao Er and Ye Lao San aside to discuss it.

"No matter which child the Zhao family chooses, we will have one less worry." Shen said frankly.

Wei also agreed. They had watched all the children in the family grow up, and they would be happy if any child was favored by the Zhao family.

Several of the children have achieved academic success, so it is easy to find a marriage partner. They just want to choose a girl from a scholarly family.

The Ye family takes this matter very seriously. This matter was proposed by Old Madam Jiang, and for Old Madam Jiang's sake, they all have to go.

In order to show their importance, Boss Ye not only let his two younger brothers go together, but also invited the elders of the clan to go as well.

After knowing this, Old Madam Jiang was somewhat happy that the Ye family was sensible and also valued the Zhao family.

But she still stopped him and first wrote a letter to ask the two children to come to her house on behalf of Master Jiang to have a look. After both sides had some ideas, she could go to the elders.

Wu'an City is quite some distance away from the provincial capital, so there is no need to run back and forth.

Ye Chenjing helped to write a letter to Ye Chenyi and Ye Chenze, asking them to visit the Zhao family and also wrote that they should pay more attention and behave better.

Ye Chenyi and Ye Chenze had no doubts at all. Since they knew that Old Madam Jiang's home was in the provincial capital, they would send a visiting card to pay her a visit.

The two took it very seriously, bought several gifts, and sent the visiting card a day in advance.

The Zhao family also received the news from Old Lady Jiang. Looking at the actions of the two children, they felt a little satisfied.

They are all sensible children, and the handwriting on the visiting card is also good.

Ye Chenyi and Ye Chenze arrived at Zhao's house early the next morning. They had a day off and did not have to go to class.

The servant took the two of them to Mr. Zhao's study. He walked so fast that he almost fell.

Ye Chenyi and Ye Chenze have both practiced before, and they did not waste their time after coming to Bailu Academy. They got up half an hour earlier every day to exercise.

The two men, one on the left and one on the right, supported the servant in a lightning-fast manner.

The servant was so scared that he broke out in a sweat. He quickly thanked the two men and walked very carefully on the road ahead.

Ye Chenyi and Ye Chenze didn't take it seriously. The boy was only eight or nine years old, and was at the age of being a naughty boy in the village.

When they arrived at the door of the study, a servant was waiting for them and took them into the study.

The two men bowed as they entered the room, "Hello, Master Zhao. We brothers didn't know you were in the city. We are late to visit you. Please forgive us."

Mr. Zhao looked at the two young men in front of him. They were both very tall and had been exercising regularly, so they were in good health. They looked both elegant like scholars and strong like men.

Mr. Zhao nodded secretly, "It's okay, it's okay. We just found out about it too. We should have invited you to our house earlier."

After exchanging pleasantries for a while, Mr. Zhao began to test their knowledge.

The two were not afraid of the stage. They studied hard and read a lot of books. They could always join in the conversation of whatever Mr. Zhao talked about.
