I just want to die of old age

Chapter 164 Ancient Peasant Girls Are Not Cannon Fodder 21

His men haven't arrived yet, so everything must be done with caution.

Yuwen Hao subtly tested Su Yuqing and learned about Su Yuzhu's identity through words.

Although Su Yuqing did not understand political intrigue, she was a woman with a delicate mind and she noticed that her beloved was finding a way to ask Su Yuzhu about it.

You can imagine how disappointed she felt, so she kept changing the subject, and they never got to the point.

In the end, Yu Wenhao only knew that Su Yuzhu was a real member of the Su family and had never left the village, and at most went to the county town.

Yuwen Hao finally breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that the killer was not sent by other princes. He let down his guard a little.

If I hadn't fallen into their trap this time, I wouldn't have ended up in this godforsaken place.

After seeing Su Yuqing's beautiful face, Yu Wenhao felt more favorable towards her.

But Su Yuqing is still a good person and is deeply in love with him.

After returning to the capital, I can take Su Yuqing as my concubine.

As for Su Yuqing's dream of becoming the principal wife, that was impossible. She, an ordinary commoner girl, could just be a concubine.

Su Yuqing naturally didn't know what Yu Wenhao was thinking, but their friendship was obvious when their eyes met.

The next day, Su Yuzhu's rabbit-raising method was known to every household, and the villagers expressed their gratitude continuously.

The wind direction in the village suddenly changed, and the favorable impression towards Su Yuzhu's family doubled, forming a one-sided trend.

With the help of the villagers, Su Yuzhu and her family quickly moved into their new home.

There were fewer sour comments in the village about the Su family building a house. Of course, there were still a few bad apples who grumbled about it, but they were quickly brought back to their senses after a few words from others.

Most villagers know how to be grateful in their hearts, but the pressure of poor life makes their hearts full of negative emotions.

Of course, they were also driven by interests and chose the side with the advantage.

As Su Yuzhu's family's reputation gradually improved, Grandpa Su's family became even more miserable.

However, they did not dare to go too far. After all, the Su family still had two scholars, who might become rich and powerful one day.

But without the scenery in the original book, Grandpa Su had a lot of white hair and finally felt the pressure of life.

Time flies, and soon it is February.

During this period, Su Yuzhu's family developed rapidly and basically settled in the county town.

The small restaurant run by Su's father and mother was doing a booming business. Gradually, they had a stable customer base, and Su's mother's cooking skills became more and more sophisticated.

They are so busy every day that they have no time to rest.

It was only after Su Yuzhu insisted that two waiters were hired as waiters and a cook to help, and the situation improved a lot.

The shiitake mushrooms that Su Yuzhu had previously grown gradually grew and became the restaurant's signature dish, attracting many customers.

As for the brothers Su Boqiu and Su Boshen, they also entered Qingsong College to study.

Just like a mouse in a rice jar, it absorbed the teacher's knowledge like crazy and made rapid progress.

Su Yuzhu finally lived the life of a lady with everything she wanted, including eating, drinking, and having fun.

However, she became interested in reading medical books and brought home the most famous medical books and pharmacopoeias from ancient times.

Tomorrow is a crucial day for their family, as it is the county examination for the imperial examination.

In ancient times, the people did not fight against officials, and scholars had a better status. Otherwise, no matter how much money they earned, it would be a favor to others.

The Tongsheng exam is the entrance exam to obtain the qualification of a student (scholar), that is, the entrance exam.

If you can't even pass this, then don't waste your time.

The Tongsheng examination generally consists of three stages: county examination, prefectural examination and academy examination, and is held twice every three years.

She walked forward to the front of the academy with her head held high. A strong cultural atmosphere filled her face. The walls were covered with poems and famous quotes.

Su Yuzhu stood at the bottom of the stairs with a lunch box. Her elder and second brothers had been staying there almost all these days and had not returned home.

The gate of the academy stood above, and one had to walk up a long flight of stairs. Su Yuzhu had no urge to climb up, so she just waited patiently below.

There were people coming and going sparsely, and at this time a puzzled male voice was heard.

"Yuzhu, why are you here?"

Su Yuzhu turned around and looked in the direction of the voice.

A middle-aged man in fine clothes, steady and mature, his face looked inexplicably familiar.

Standing next to him was a beautifully dressed lady and a little boy about 10 years old.

Suddenly, a picture flashed through Su Yuzhu's mind, and the face of a stubborn man arguing with Grandpa Su appeared.

In comparison, she is 8% similar to this man, but with the passage of time, she has become more mature and stable.

Su Yuzhu said tentatively: "You are... Fourth Uncle."

Su Zhixiong smiled and greeted warmly: "It's been a long time since we last met. I thought you had forgotten me."

When he resolutely turned around and left home, he never thought of going back. He just asked his servants to secretly give him some money to help him.

Su Yuzhu smiled awkwardly, she had indeed forgotten it just now.

Su Zhixiong noticed that Su Yuzhu's dressing had improved a lot, and he felt very relieved.

When he was at home, he had the best relationship with Su Zhiwu, as they had similar personalities.

Su Zhixiong asked with some guesswork: "Is your brother studying in the academy?"

"Yes, my elder and second brothers have been studying in the academy for a while."

After hearing this, Fourth Aunt's expression relaxed a lot, and a friendly smile naturally appeared on her face.

Su Zhixiong introduced Su Yuzhu to his fourth aunt and their young son Boshu.

They exchanged their recent news with each other.

Speaking of it, Fourth Uncle is the ancient version of the Phoenix Man. He has crossed the class and lived a wealthy life.

His father-in-law had died of illness after a long period of suffering. For the sake of his wife and daughter, he thought about finding a live-in son-in-law.

He took a liking to Su Zhixiong at first sight. Although he came from a poor family, he had great ambitions.

He is also loyal, has his own ideas, and has a good talent for business.

So they went to find Su Zhixiong, who happened to have a mediocre status in the family.

It is said that people usually love their youngest child, but in the eyes of old man Su, only the eldest child is the most important, and everything else is just clouds.

Su Zhixiong is a smart man. He will definitely not waste his time being a workhorse. He is unwilling to do so.

It just so happens that I have such a good opportunity. As for being a son-in-law, what does it matter? As long as I live a good life, it’s no problem.

In the Su family, although he is the legitimate son, his life is extremely awkward and he has always been a stepping stone for his elder brother.

While my father-in-law was ill, I studied business knowledge seriously, took care of him until his death, and now I have taken over all the business.

A gentle and lovely wife, and two well-behaved and obedient children, this is the dream life.
