After listening to Han Yiyi's words, Da Niu's movements obviously became faster.

After leaving the two little ones at Aunt Zhang's house, Han Yiyi went to the village entrance. Usually, Old Man Wei would wait at the village entrance for people going to the town. When Han Yiyi arrived, there were already two women on the ox cart, each holding a basket in their hands, carefully. It seemed that the baskets were filled with eggs, probably to be taken to the town to sell.

"Old man Wei, let's go quickly. It's already late. I don't think you've gone to town yet. If you're any later, I won't be able to sell these eggs."

As soon as Han Yiyi got on the ox cart, he heard one of the women urging Old Man Wei. When Old Man Wei heard the woman's urging, he looked towards the village anxiously and muttered.

"We agreed to go to town today, why is there no one here at this time..."

They waited for another two cups of tea. The woman was obviously getting impatient. Just as she was about to speak again to urge them, she heard Old Man Wei speak.

"Here it comes..."

As soon as Old Man Wei finished speaking, he saw a man in a long gown supporting a round-faced woman walking towards him from a distance. Han Yiyi looked up and cursed inwardly that it was bad luck. Who else could it be but Fan Ting and his new wife Ye Cuihua from the town?

When Ye Cuihua saw Han Yiyi on the ox cart, she was stunned for a moment, then turned away with disgust. When Fan Ting saw Han Yiyi in new clothes, he frowned slightly, then turned away with disgust.

When Han Yiyi saw the looks of the two, he thought to himself, they are really a pair of dogs, even their expressions are the same. If Han Yiyi didn't have something important to do today, he would probably kick these two shameless guys off the ox cart one by one.

In order to stay away from the two of them, Han Yiyi deliberately changed the seat of the woman who got on the ox cart first, and then he spat outside the ox cart and said.

"What bad luck..."

"Brother Ting, look at her..."

Fan Ting naturally noticed Han Yiyi's actions, but he didn't expect that the person who used to be as indifferent to him as a mouse seeing a cat would now do such a thing. Just as he was about to curse him, he heard old man Wei ask.

"Mr. Fan, are you going back to the academy?..."

Hearing the name "Mr. Fan", Fan Ting seemed to suddenly realize that his status was different now. Talking to someone like Han Yiyi would lower his status. So he glanced at Han Yiyi with disdain, then looked at Old Man Wei and spoke with the same disdain.

"Now that I am a scholar, I don't need to go to the academy anymore. Moreover, with my knowledge, I can pass the imperial examination and become a juren as long as I wait to take part in the autumn examination..." When he said this, his eyes were full of pride and arrogance, as if he was no longer a scholar, but had already become the top scorer in the imperial examination.

Han Yiyi looked at Fan Ting and was really puzzled. Wasn't it said that it was very difficult to pass the examination to become a scholar in ancient times? How could someone like Fan Ting pass the examination to become a scholar? He was really lucky.

When Old Man Wei heard Fan Ting's words, he quickly smiled and agreed.

"Yes, if our village produces a top scholar in the future, people will look up to us if we tell others about it. If Mr. Fan becomes successful in the future, he must not forget us villagers..."

Fan Ting was so flattered by Old Man Wei's words that he had long forgotten the unpleasantness he had with Han Yiyi just now. When he saw the two of them getting off the car, Old Man Wei called Han Yiyi and spoke to him in a serious tone.

"Girl from the Han family, when you live under someone's roof, you have to bow your head. Now you are alone with two children and have no one to rely on. The boy from the Fan family has passed the imperial examination and become a scholar. We can't afford to offend him. You'd better control your temper when you meet in the future..."

Han Yiyi knew that Old Man Wei was doing this for her own good, so she quickly agreed with a smile. However, when Han Yiyi turned around to leave, she heard Old Man Wei's muttering again.

"Oh, this world is so unfair. The good people are always bullied..."

Han Yiyi went to the small stall where he sold pork last time. The stall owner's surname was Li, a middle-aged fat man. When he saw Han Yiyi, he greeted her with a smile.

"Big sister, here you are again. How much pork do you want to buy today..."

"I'm not buying pork today, I want these...", he said, pointing to several pairs of pig intestines placed aside.

When Butcher Li heard that Han Yiyi didn't want meat today but wanted large intestines, the smile on his face became even bigger.

Han Yiyi was charged a total of eight cents for several sets of large intestines, and Han Yiyi also made an agreement with Li the butcher that all the large intestines would be kept for her in the future. Looking at Han Yiyi's back as she left, and then looking at the large intestines on the table that had been taken away by her, Li the butcher kept raising his mouth. These large intestines were things that no one would even want as gifts in the past, but he didn't expect that they could be sold for money now.

Han Yiyi bought another wooden barrel and went to the drugstore to buy some star anise, bay leaves and the like. In fact, Han Yiyi still used the marinade package in the system to make braised large intestines. The reason he bought these things was just to cover up his tracks.

On the way back, Han Yiyi did not see Fan Ting and his wife. When she got closer, she vaguely heard Old Man Wei talking to the people on the ox cart. It turned out that the two of them went to Ye Cuihua's house together to discuss their marriage.

After Old Man Wei finished speaking, he turned around and saw Han Yiyi. A hint of worry flashed in his eyes. Seeing that she looked normal, he breathed a sigh of relief.

After returning home, I went to Aunt Zhang's house to pick up the two little ones, and then went back to process the large intestine. Because I was worried that braising it in the evening would affect the taste the next day, I washed it first and marinated it with salt.

The next morning, Han Yiyi got up at the beginning of the Yin hour and worked for more than an hour before he finally got everything done.

In order to make the food more flavorful, Han Yiyi added some marinade to the wood. Just as she put the large intestine into the barrel, she heard the voice of Daniu outside the kitchen.

"Sister Yiyi, my mother asked me to come over and see if you need any help..."

Seeing Da Niu carrying his wooden bucket and walking briskly towards the village entrance, Han Yiyi hurriedly picked up the things he needed and the bamboo sticks he had prepared and followed him.

Today, there were only Han Yiyi and Daniu in Old Man Wei's ox cart, along with Han Yiyi's large intestine and Daniu's dozen or so bamboo pillows.

Because there were fewer people, the ox cart moved quickly and arrived at the town in just one hour.

Han Yiyi had chosen a location for the stall the day before. It was right at the street corner, with people coming and going. There was a stone table on the ground, but it was very dirty. Han Yiyi took out the patched clothes he had used before and wiped it clean. Then he put the wooden barrel on it and started selling...

"Braised large intestine, braised large intestine with delicious soup, try it before you buy, if it doesn't taste good, you don't have to pay..."

Da Niu was still tidying up his bamboo pillow when he was startled by Han Yiyi's hawking voice. He looked at Han Yiyi in disbelief.
