The fragrance of medicine is alluring, the farm elder sister is cool and cool

Wen Laosan's family heard that Wen Liang had donated money to the county school. In order to count the school-age children in Yueya Village, children from extremely poor families could go to school for free. With such good conditions, his family would definitely let Baolong go as well.

Wen Lao San and his wife went to Wen Qingcheng's house early in the morning with a basket of fruits. When they knocked on the door, they found Ye Xiuying and Wen Qingcheng were also there. They were too embarrassed to speak to them.

Wen Laosan had been chatting with Wen Liang about some irrelevant things. Ye Xiuying and Wen Qingcheng ignored him. The couple seemed to be hesitant to talk. Wen Liang was anxious to leave, so he asked him straight to the point.

"Third brother, just say whatever you want to say." Wen Liang looked at Wen Third Brother. He knew that his younger brother was addicted to gambling. If someone came for money, he would directly drive them away. No matter how big the family business is, once it is involved in gambling, it will be a bottomless pit.

Zhao Chunhua nudged Wen Laosan imperceptibly, and Wen Laosan rubbed his hands, his dark face reddening a little. "Um... Second brother, I heard from our third uncle that you donated money to the county school, so all the children in our village can go to school, right?"

Wen Liang breathed a sigh of relief. It was because of this matter. Baolong was seven years old this year and it was indeed time for him to go to school. This child had been like a little bully since he was young and was lawless at home. It was time for him to go to school and be disciplined.

Wen Liang must have agreed to Baolong going, after all, he was his nephew. Even if there were some grudges between the adults, it was the adults' business and had nothing to do with the next generation. "Yes, you can go to Third Uncle to sign up."

Old Third Wen wanted to ask if Baolong could be given a poverty quota so that he could go to school for free, but he couldn't say the words. He had sold Wen Qingcheng before and didn't testify for Wen Qingcheng. When Wen Liang returned home, his attitude towards him was so cold, so how could he open his mouth now?

Seeing her husband being so cowardly, Zhao Chunhua couldn't help but say, "Second brother, let's not beat around the bush. This time I came here to ask, does Baolong still need to pay tuition for school?"

Wen Qingcheng sneered and said, "Of course we have to pay it back. Baolong's parents are not both dead."

Zhao Chunhua's smile froze on her face for a moment. She glared at Wen Qingcheng viciously, then put on a smile and looked at Wen Liang expectantly.

Wen Liang said calmly: "Just like other children in the village, just pay 20% of the fees."

Wen Lao San said hesitantly: "Second brother, Baolong is your nephew, does he still need to pay money?"

Ye Xiuying couldn't sit still after hearing this and couldn't help but interrupt, "Nephew? Is Qingcheng your niece? You watched her die without helping her. Who told the officials that we were separated and had nothing to do with us? Now she's your nephew again."

Wen Qingcheng snorted coldly, her voice full of anger: "If it were me, I would not have the face to come again! Back then, when my mother and I were forced to separate, you were unwilling to give us even an acre of thin land, waiting to see us laugh. It's a pity that you were disappointed. We are living well now. You also said that my father was not a blood relative of the Wen family. Now that times have passed, you suddenly say that Baolong is our nephew. It's ridiculous."

Old Third Wen looked at Wen Qingcheng's little mouth talking "blah blah" like frying beans, which made him speechless. He hated her so much that he wanted to poison her to make her mute.

Wen Lao San said with an unpleasant expression: "It's meaningless if you keep bringing up the past. I didn't give you land at the beginning because I knew you couldn't live on your own without food. It was to keep you and not let you split up. After you left, mother regretted it so much."

After saying this, she winked at Zhao Chunhua, who immediately understood: "Yes, mother also said that she didn't expect Second Sister-in-law to be so generous. If she had known this, she would have given you the land."

Everyone could tell that what he said was not true. Wen Liang knew exactly what kind of people this family was, but he couldn't really turn his face against them and chase them away.

Wen Qingcheng was extremely annoyed with the people in the old house. How could they have the nerve to ask for benefits? She was not like Wen Liang, who showed no mercy to them.

"Go away, you are not welcome here. If you want your child to go to school, go to Third Uncle's house to register. He will report the list of the Wen family to the head of the village. If you don't leave and continue to disturb us here, I promise that he won't even be able to go to school!"

Wen Lao San and Zhao Chunhua glared at Wen Qingcheng fiercely, their teeth clenched, but they had to keep a smile on their faces. No matter what Wen Qingcheng said, as long as Wen Liang agreed, it would be fine. Who knew that when they looked at Wen Liang, Wen Liang turned his face away, with an indifferent expression, and did not refute Wen Qingcheng's words.

This meant that Wen Qingcheng said something that Wen Liang was not convenient to say, and Wen Laosan and his wife hit a snag here. They had no choice but to leave in disappointment.

Before leaving, Zhao Chunhua was still mumbling, "Let's go, Third Brother. He is successful now and doesn't look down on us poor relatives. You treat him as a brother, but he may not look down on you."

As he said that, he took away the basket of fruit that he had brought from the table. Ye Xiuying sneered, "Who cares about their fruit? Do you really think that others are fools and will be grateful if you give them some benefits?"

Wen Qingcheng said coldly: "The people in the old house will not do anything without profit. Even if we help them, they may not remember our kindness."

Ye Xiuying nodded in agreement: "I have seen through them a long time ago. When we separated, they were sure that I would not be able to live well with the child. Now that we are living such a good life, they must be feeling unbalanced. Everyone in the world can live better than them, except us."

Wen Liang knew that Ye Xiuying had separated from the family with her two children, and Wen Qingcheng was not very old, so it was not easy for two women to support a family. Human nature is to bully the weak and fear the strong. Just imagine what kind of bullying a widow would endure. Even his daughter, who had always been weak, had become so strong now. It was obvious what their previous life had forced them into.

The more Wen Liang thought about it, the more he felt sorry for the mother and daughter. He looked at Ye Xiuying apologetically. "Xiuying, you've suffered during the time I was away."

Ye Xiuying sighed and said, "No matter how hard it was, we have come through it. The days ahead will get better and better. Just take care of yourself and don't worry about the three of us."

"Aying..."

Wen Liang knew that Ye Xiuying must blame him, but he would not ignore them. Ye Xiuying was his first wife and had accompanied him through so many difficult years. Qingcheng and Zicheng would always be his children, and he would not let his children stay in this small mountain village forever.

Even if Zicheng studied hard, the county's educational resources were limited, and it was too difficult to get ahead through the imperial examination. He was an example. He studied hard since childhood, but failed the exam every year. The Marquis found a famous teacher in Kyoto to teach him, corrected his thinking, and easily passed the exam.

Even if he could not allow Zicheng to enter the Marquis' Mansion, his son must have the best educational resources.

Wen Qingcheng saw that the atmosphere between the couple had become a little tense, and Wen Liang still wanted to explain, so she came out to smooth things over. "Dad, don't worry and go back. I'll take care of Mom. Since you're remarrying, just live your life well. Don't bother taking us to Kyoto. We will get better and better in the future, and we will make it to Kyoto through our own efforts."

Wen Qingcheng didn't have much love or hatred for Wen Liang. The reason why she was so touched when she saw him was probably because of the original owner's emotions. In fact, she didn't care whether Wen Liang left or not. It was fine to just treat him as if he was dead.
