After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

The boss looked at the cute little girl and smiled: "How much do you think is appropriate?"

Fang Nanzhi blinked and imitated her father's usual way of bargaining.

"Boss, if I say it's too low, I'm afraid you'll be unhappy. Well, how about this? I'll name a price and you can bargain later. But please don't be unhappy. After all, I'm just a kid and I don't have much money."

It was the first time that the boss heard the child call herself a "little kid". Her little adult look made the boss laugh.

"Okay, if you say I bargain again, I will definitely not be angry."

"Two taels then!"

The boss rarely sees girls bargaining so hard, but he is not unhappy at all. He thinks the girl is very capable at such a young age.

"Two taels is not worth it to me. How about this, I'll give you two thousand six hundred wen, which is the lowest price."

The little girl thought about it, then suddenly stood on tiptoe and weighed the small bamboo basket on her back: "Two thousand four hundred coins, I can give you the money now."

Fang Yin also nodded behind him.

The boss slapped his thigh and said, "Okay, then two thousand four."

Seeing that the boss was so happy and smiling, Fang Nanzhi was a little worried that she might have cut too little.

In fact, the boss just thought she was so funny that he couldn't suppress his smile.

She turned around and took out the backpack. Fang Yin also started to take out his purse, and the two began to count copper coins in front of the boss.

Two thousand four hundred coins was enough for Fang Nanzhi and Fang Yin to count for a while. The boss watched them slowly count and couldn't help asking, "Don't you think it's heavy with so many copper coins?"

Fang Nanzhi just laughed and said nothing. She spent a lot of money, which was basically New Year's money, and even some from the two gentlemen. Second uncle spent less, but also got New Year's money, and most of it was pocket money given to him by Fang Tong.

This book box almost emptied the uncle and nephew's money.

After saying goodbye to the grocery store owner, the two of them happily took their baskets and went back. They didn't buy any food on the way. They couldn't afford meat buns or osmanthus candy. They just lowered their heads and rushed past when passing by.

When they arrived at the door of their house, they both tiptoed, afraid that they would be discovered by Qin Yan. Fang Yin held the exam basket, and Fang Nanzhi went in carefully, only to find that her brother had already returned, the window was open, and he was still reciting his lessons.

She quickly retracted her foot and waved softly to Fang Yin outside the door, motioning him to come in, pointing to her brother's room.

Fang Yin hid the exam basket behind him, and the two of them quietly walked to the door of Qin Yan's room and knocked.

Qin Yan had just seen Fang Nanzhi through the window, but he didn't notice Fang Yin who was deliberately hiding on the other side.

He let the two in, but before he could ask what was the matter, Fang Yin lifted the examination basket behind him and held it in front of him!

Fang Nanzhi said in a crisp voice: "I hope my brother will succeed in the county exam!"

The next sentence was continued by Fang Yin, with full energy: "Successful in the imperial examination!"

Qin Yan was slightly stunned before taking the exam basket from Fang Yin. As soon as he touched it, he knew that it must be not cheap and was much better than the ones he saw many of his classmates had.

Fang Nanzhi leaned over with a smile: "Brother, this is what my second uncle and I bought for you with our New Year's money and pocket money. Do you like it?"

"I like it." He stroked it twice more, reached out to touch his sister's head, and couldn't help asking, "Why did you think of giving me this?"

Fang Nanzhi blinked her big eyes. "I saw Dad give Mom a gift before, and Mom was very happy. I also wanted to make my brother happy, so I discussed with Second Uncle about giving you something. In the end, we decided that this exam basket would be the most practical. You can take it with you when you take the exam."

"Don't you have to stay there alone for several days for the exam? We can't go in with you to take the exam. Just think of this as us being with you all the time. Don't miss me too much when the time comes!"

The purest childish words actually made Qin Yan's eyes slightly sore and his heart very warm.

He thought that, like his mother, he was also lucky to have such a good family. Because of this, he must succeed and protect them.

On the second day, the academy notified all the students in Class A that they would start their holiday, because the county examination would begin in two days, March 8th. The academy gave them time to go home and adjust and prepare. They were also advised to study hard while not neglecting their health and to be energized enough to take part in the county examination.

Qian Fengping no longer went to Juxianglou. Now Liu Cui and Chen were able to take care of themselves. When they heard her say that something happened at home, they urged her to go back so that she could have a few days' rest. She always forgot to rest when she was working, which was not good for her health!

She was busy at home, as she had to prepare food for her son to take with him during those days, including bread, meat sauce, and flatbread.

The bread is sweet, and the meat sauce and flatbread are savory.

Her son usually doesn't like sweets, but sometimes when he reads too much, he will come out and get a piece of cake. Although she doesn't quite understand why, it's always a good idea to prepare some, so that her son won't want to have a bite of it, and then miss it if he can't have it, which will affect his mood.

The meat sauce is filled with minced meat and plenty of oil, and it is delicious when eaten with pancakes. In addition, there are pickled vegetables and dried meat that are usually available at home.

Fang Nanzhi watched her mother busying herself in the kitchen, and sometimes helped to light the fire.

"Mom, when you prepare water, in addition to water and milk, please also prepare some salt and sugar water for my brother. Drinking it will give him strength."

My daughter knows more about these things, so she listened to what Qian Fengping said and prepared everything for her son anyway.

From time to time, the mother and daughter thought about what else they needed to bring. Fang Nanzhi asked a lot about these things and reminded her mother to bring clean cloth for her brother, as he would definitely need to use it to wipe things and the stools and tables would probably not be clean.

In addition to these, Fang Nanzhi also prepared the medicine kits her brother needed and carried them with her.

One is for mosquito repellent, just carry it with you to avoid mosquitoes.

Of course, it also comes with medicine for applying on the body. If you get bitten accidentally, it can stop the itching immediately to avoid annoying the owner.

In addition to this, there are also deodorizing medicine bags. She had heard before that there are stinky rooms in the examination room, which are the so-called examination rooms that are very close to the toilets.

Some people are unlucky and live close to it. As it gets warmer today, there will be a strong smell in the next five days, which is so stinky that it will make people feel annoyed.

She made a very large deodorizing bag, which can be very useful as long as it is placed in the examination room.

Of course, she hoped that her brother would have better luck and not encounter such an examination room. Carrying this medicine bag on his body could also remove some other smells, and at the same time calm his mind and allow him to concentrate.
