Disguised as a man: Watch me create a new dynasty

The old year is coming to an end amid the sound of firecrackers. The main residence of the Yan family is decorated with lights and colorful decorations, and the strong festive atmosphere is everywhere.

All members of the Yan family, including relatives from other branches, gathered together to welcome the New Year.

In the courtyard, children wearing brand new cotton-padded clothes were laughing and playing, waving colorful fireworks sticks in their hands, which reflected their rosy faces, just like flowers blooming in spring.

The adults sat together, some making dumplings, some preparing ingredients for the New Year's Eve dinner, and laughter echoed in the air.

Inside the main room, the old man of the Yan family was sitting on the warm kang, drinking hot tea, with a pleased smile on his face.

"Back then, our Yan family also went through a lot of hardships and lived a very tight life."

“It’s not easy to have such a situation now!” Everyone nodded, their eyes filled with memories of the past when they didn’t have enough food to eat.

Master Yan Wu and his companions also rushed back from the provincial capital yesterday. They were now sitting on the kang with Master Yan, leisurely drinking hot tea.

Listening to Mr. Yan's sigh, he nodded and said, "Yes, this is all thanks to our Yan family's little lucky star. He brought hope to our Yan family as soon as he was born."

Yan Nansheng suddenly remembered the first pot of gold he made when he first came here, and immediately got goosebumps.

No, I can’t reminisce anymore. I won’t be able to eat dumplings soon.

Everyone burst into laughter when they saw Yan Nansheng's reaction. In order to save his face, they quickly changed the subject, but the corners of his mouth were curled up, revealing the smile in his heart.

The New Year's Eve dinner has begun, and the aroma of delicious food fills the table. Everyone sits together, wishes each other well, and the clinking of glasses is a beautiful expectation for the future.

The children couldn't wait to pick up their favorite dishes, and the adults toasted each other to celebrate this year's harvest.

Outside the window, fireworks bloomed brilliantly, lighting up the entire night sky.

The laughter and voices of the Yan family members intertwined together, forming a warm and beautiful picture.

This New Year is the most comfortable one they have had in recent years.

So many things happened this year that it makes people feel that those days of poverty and helplessness seemed to have happened in the previous life.

Yan Nansheng sat on the couch with his face in his hands, looking at his family who were still drinking and chatting, feeling peaceful in his heart.

so good!

Time flies by like a white horse, passing by quickly and quietly without you noticing, catching you off guard.

It weaves the picture of life, and before you have time to savor it, it has already turned to a new chapter.

In this vast land of the North, the poverty and desolation of the past are long gone.

Today, the lives of the people here have undergone earth-shaking changes, just like a magnificent picture of prosperity slowly unfolding.

The dilapidated and crumbling thatched houses of the past have been replaced by rows of brand new and stylish brick houses.

They stand in an orderly manner on both sides of the street, and the once rugged and bumpy roads have been repaired and become smooth and wide.

The streets are lined with shops and the vendors on the main street are shoulder to shoulder. The constant shouting of hawkers and the lively and cheerful bargaining together weave a vibrant melody of life.

People's faces are filled with happy smiles. When they go out to meet others, they no longer rush around with their heads down, but stop to chat. The rhythm of life is warm and satisfying.

The days when we worried about food and clothing are gone forever.

Qingshui County is the fastest growing county in Jiuyou Prefecture, because there is a family here that is well-known in the North.

The Yan family in Qinghe Village.

Five years have passed since the great war with the Tatar barbarians after the snowstorm.

Today, the legendary story of the Yan family in Qinghe Village, Qingshui County is told throughout Jiuyou Prefecture.

The weapon invented by the scholar of the Yan family played a crucial role in this war and was commended by the emperor. From then on, the name of Yan Nansheng of the Yan family spread throughout the north.

The sound of reading aloud can be heard from Yongxi Lane in Qingshui County, and people passing by the streets and alleys will unconsciously slow down their footsteps.

Because this is the Yan family school.

In recent years, the Yan family's clan school has developed very rapidly with the support of Yan Nansheng.

The younger generations in the clan also cherish this hard-earned opportunity to study, and they compete with each other.

Yan Nansheng said that such positive comparison has always been supported, as it is a manifestation of development and progress.

Most of the tribesmen have moved to the county town, and their quality of life has improved significantly.

In the past few years, many children of the Yan family have succeeded in becoming scholars, and five or six of them have passed the imperial examinations. For a time, the Yan family became famous in the north, overwhelmed many local scholarly families.

Originally, the people were discussing whether the rise of the Yan family would be suppressed by other families.

All the noble families: They can’t be suppressed at all.

The reality is that all the major families are trying their best to send their outstanding children to the Yan family school.

When the Yan family was still unknown, no one cared about their background, and no family bothered to investigate.

When the Yan family appeared in front of the public with a strong attitude, all the major families received the news.

It turns out that the Yan family of Qinghe Village is the aristocratic family with a century-old heritage in the capital, the Yan family who was once the Prince's tutor!

The North has been a place of exile since ancient times, and the people there are tough and the families of scholars exiled here often cannot endure the suffering of exile.

Either they gradually fade into obscurity, or their population dwindles and no one can find them anymore.

There are very few families like the Yan family that can make a comeback.

It just so happens that people in the north admire literati and scholars the most. The local scholarly families are just the tallest among the short ones, trying to pretend to be rich. They are far from the families in prosperous places like the capital.

There are very few students in the northern counties and cities close to the border, and even fewer who can pass the examination to become a scholar.

And there are six scholars in the Yan family of Qingshui County!

Who dares to suppress?

They all hoped that the Yan family would accept their children, and that they would be influenced by the Yan family's children, so that they could pass the imperial examination and become a scholar next year to bring honor to the family.

Who would be so blind as to offend the Yan family?

At this time, at the Yan Family School, a few ignorant students were blocking Yan Nansheng at the entrance of the school.

"Is this how you, the Yan family, treat students like us who have come from afar?"

"Find a teenager to be our teacher?!"

"Ha! This is an unprecedented trick. We came here for the reputation of the Yan family as a family of scholars, but you used a child to fool us!"

"Call your dean out! We want an explanation!"

"Yes! Let's go and ask the dean for an explanation!"

Several young students spoke indignantly.

Yan Nansheng held a few teaching plans in his hands and stood quietly among the crowd.

It was still early and the students from the clan school had not arrived yet.

These people are said to be students who just arrived in Qingshui County this morning.

They all came here for the rules of the Yan family school.
