What a sin! The most handsome lazy man in the village married a crazy woman.

This morning it was foggy and cool.

Everyone had breakfast at Xiao Tiechui's house, which was egg dumpling soup.

Ye Tang looked very enjoyable while eating; the food cooked in the big pot over wood fire was so delicious.

After dinner, Xiao Tiechui and his family went to the county town as usual to sell tofu, sour plum soup, and cold noodles. They also inquired about the affairs of the county government, wanting to know how Tao Quan dealt with County Magistrate Zhu and Feng Tianbao. This time they went there in a big buffalo cart.

Ye Tang took a basket of vegetables and tofu, and supported Xiao Jingxuan, whose legs had recovered, back to the old house.

As the sky gradually brightened, Wang Chenggong and his team came to work.

Ye Tang put down his things, prepared some tea for Wang Chenggong and his group, and then took Xiao Jingxuan to farm.

Xiao Jingxuan complained bitterly.

"It's over, I'm going to get tanned!"

"Ah, it's so hot, my lady, can we go roll in the water?"

"Ouch, the sole of my foot was hit by a stone."

"I can't even pull out this damn weed."

"Ah! There's dirt under my flawless nails!"

Xiao Jingxuan’s ghostly cries continued to be heard in the ground.

The villagers in other fields were amazed when they saw Xiao Jingxuan working in the fields.

“I’m not seeing things, that’s Jamel Xiao, he’s actually here to farm!”

"He wouldn't dig up all the vegetables that Ye Tang worked so hard to grow, would he?"

"It's so strange that Jamel Xiao, who finds drinking water tiring, actually has a time to farm!"

"It's obvious that Ye Tang forced him to come here."

A young woman came up to the granddaughter of the Xiao clan leader and said, "Your Xiao clan's Sixth Master is being treated like a cow by Ye Tang. You should be very angry, right?"

Chief Xiao has three granddaughters. The one in front of her is Chief Xiao's second granddaughter, Xiao Yongyu, born to the second wife. Hearing what the young lady said, she looked at the young lady in confusion: "Why should I be angry? Sixth Grandpa is lazy by nature. Our whole family is looking forward to Sixth Grandpa becoming a hardworking man. Now we finally see Sixth Grandpa working in the fields. We are so happy. How could we blame Sixth Grandma? Sixth Grandma is so capable. She is actually Sixth Grandpa's savior and the pride of our Xiao family. I wish Sixth Grandma would continue to discipline Sixth Grandpa strictly!"

The whole family is looking forward to the Sixth Master's success. Now that there is finally someone to take care of him, how could they be angry?

The young lady Liu Sanya didn't expect Xiao Yongyu to react like this, and was very puzzled: "But your Sixth Master is a man, and men are the heads of the family. Ye Tang orders him around everywhere, isn't that..."

Xiao Yongyu's face darkened before she could finish. "Liu Sanya, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. You just can't stand seeing my Sixth Grandmother living a good life. You and my Sixth Grandmother are from the same village. You've always loved to cause trouble for my Sixth Grandmother since you were a child, and she's punished you several times. Last time when my Sixth Grandmother divorced and returned home, your mother spread gossip about her everywhere. Wasn't it you who spread it? You're so evil!"

"Get out of my way. Don't get in my way. I don't want to hear you talk." Xiao Yongyu directly drove Liu Sanya away.

Liu Sanya is the youngest daughter of Aunt Li. Aunt Li said that the gossip about Ye Tang had already spread to Qingquan Village, so that the people of the Xiao clan disliked Liu Sanya.

"Xiao Yongyu, what's so good about Ye Tang that you protect her so much?" Liu Sanya was very unwilling. Why could Ye Tang still live so well after divorce and remarriage?

"Because she is the great grandmother of our Xiao clan." Xiao Yongyu didn't even glance at Liu Sanya: "Don't let me hear you say bad things about the Sixth Great Grandmother again, or I won't forgive you."

Grandpa said that the Xiao clan can have internal conflicts, but they must be united when facing outsiders.

Liu Sanya was so angry at Xiao Yongyu's attitude that she stamped her feet and went back to her own field.

When her mother-in-law saw her coming back, she glanced at her and said, "Instead of wasting your time on making trouble for yourself, you might as well clean up this piece of land."

After Liu Sanya left, Xiao Yongyu stared at Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan for a long time.

To be honest, she was very happy to have a Sixth Grandmother to take care of Sixth Grandfather, but Ziyan Mountain was taken back by Fifth Grandfather and returned to Sixth Grandfather. The people of the Xiao clan could no longer go to that mountain to dig wild vegetables, chop firewood, or look for game. They had to go further to other mountains to look for them, and they still had some complaints in their hearts.

At noon, Ye Tang went home on time to make lunch. Xiao Jingxuan, who was liberated, was as happy as a wild monkey.

"Go home, eat, la la la la la la..."

Others were quite puzzled.

"It's not even dark yet, why are they leaving?"

"Said he was going back for lunch."

"What's lunch? Don't they have three meals a day?"

"seems like it."

"..."

The villagers work from sunrise to sunset, dig wells for drinking, farm for food, and eat two meals a day.

Ye Tang and Xiao Jingxuan, on the other hand, had to eat three meals a day before it got dark and the crops were grown.

Everyone sighed: "Ye Tang was not like this before. In the end, he was influenced by Xiao Jingxuan, the lazy guy."

After lunch, Ye Tang dragged Xiao Jingxuan to the field to work again. Xiao Jingxuan was so depressed that he swung the hoe and accidentally dug up a small pile of sweet potato seedlings next to him.

Jamel Xiao was horrified: "......"

Ye Tang kicked: "I told you to dig the soil, but you dug the seedlings, you are blind!"

Jamel Xiao was kicked and fell into the ditch.

Jamel Xiao lay in the ditch and didn't want to climb out, letting the scorching sun burn him to see if the scorching sun could dry up the water in the ditch and his wet clothes.

"Look quickly, is that person Xiao Wenye?"

"It's true!"

Suddenly, some discussions were heard all around.

Ye Tang looked down the hillside and saw Xiao Wenye, wearing a green gown, walking out from the corner carrying a box on his back.

"It's really Wen Ye, he's back!" Ye Tang threw away the hoe and went to fish Xiao Jingxuan out of the ditch: "The prefectural examination is over, Wen Ye is back, let's go, let's go to Fifth Brother's house."

I don’t know whether Xiao Wenye passed the examination and became a scholar.

Jamel Xiao was still dripping with water: “I haven’t been dried yet!”

Ye Tang didn't care about that. He carried him on his shoulders, picked up the hoe and sickle, and hurried towards Master Xiao Wu's house.

"It's so embarrassing, put me down, it's over, it's over, I have lost face."

"Have you ever had a face?"

"..."

The news of Xiao Wenye's return home excited everyone in the fields. Many of them greeted Xiao Wenye loudly, wanting to know whether he had passed the examination to become a scholar.

Although there were four students in their village, only two of them, Xiao Yi and Xiao Wenye, went to take part in the provincial examination this year.

Xiao Wenye simply greeted his fellow villagers and did not mention anything about the provincial examination.

I'll have to hold it in until I get home.

Xiao Zhong's family was also in the field. They were more excited than anyone else to see Xiao Wenye coming back.

"Xiao Wenye is back, and Ayi must be back too. Let's go, let's go home quickly." Zhang ran home carrying a hoe.

Upon hearing this, Xiao Zhong and Xiao Erzhu, who were working, lost their temper and caught up with Zhang with their farm tools.

Only Wang Chunxue was left alone in the field, weeding in the sweat.

"Azhong's wife, don't you want to go home and visit?" asked the aunt in the dry land nearby.

Wang Chunxue lowered her head: "No."

Whether Xiao Yi passed the exam or not had nothing to do with her.

She has no status in Xiao Zhong's family.
