Traveling through time and space to become a child, supporting the family by catching fish and shrim

After returning to the Sheng Mansion, Sheng Chuliang inquired about the examination process in detail and nodded, saying, "Okay, go back and study hard to prepare for the upcoming provincial examination."

The butler immediately said, "Congratulations, Mr. Chen."

Sheng Chuliang said angrily: "What are you congratulating me for? It's just a county exam. If you can't pass it, you can just hang yourself."

The butler looked embarrassed and stepped aside.

Madam Sheng glared at Sheng Chuliang and said, "Can't you, old man, say something nice?"

"Although it was a county exam, Xiao Chen only spent about ten days studying for the textbooks. It was quite an achievement to pass. Of course, he deserves congratulations."

"Xiao Chen, you should stay in the city for the next few days and go back after the results are announced."

Chen Lang said, "Master's Wife, I think my wife and daughter can't stay here any longer."

"You can bring them to the county town. Master's wife hasn't met your wife and daughter yet." Mrs. Sheng said.

Chen Lang said, "Next time the results are announced, I'll bring them to visit the teacher and his wife."

Madam Sheng said, "That's fine. Then go back and be careful."

"Thank you for your concern, Master's wife. I will." Chen Lang bowed and was about to leave when Sheng Chuliang stopped him.

"Chen Lang, since you've decided to study, don't get involved in business."

Chen Lang said: "Now the family business is managed by my brother-in-law."

Sheng Chuliang said, "It's not that you can't do business, but your foundation is shallow right now, and the teacher can't give you much help. If someone makes a fuss about this, it will be very difficult to handle."

Chen Lang nodded: "Student understands."

Sheng Chuliang said: "Go ahead."

"Teacher, Madam, I'm leaving now." Chen Lang bowed, left Sheng Mansion, and rushed home.

The cow seemed to sense Chen Lang's urgency and started running wildly.

The official road was covered in dust, but it could not hide Chen Lang's desire to return home.

……

Hezhong Village, Chen Lang's home.

Three little girls, Guoguo, Cuicui and Lanlan, were writing on the sand.

Little Huihui was lying nearby, seemingly nonchalant, but would immediately become alert at any sign of trouble.

This little guy has become Guoguo's most loyal guard!

"Ouch! Ouch!"

Suddenly, Xiao Huihui stood up and shouted loudly towards the front. Before everyone could react to what was happening, they saw Xiao Huihui rushing out like a gray lightning.

Guoguo was very anxious and shouted, "Xiao Huihui, come back quickly!"

Li Xiaohu was puzzled: "Is this dog crazy? It was fine this morning."

Zhao Chunhua slapped her thigh and said, "I know, it must be my brother-in-law who has returned."

When Guoguo heard this, he ran out immediately.

Cuicui and Lanlan followed closely behind.

Li Xiaohu turned to Li Xiuzhi and said, "Sister, my brother-in-law is back. Let's go pick him up."

Li Xiuzhi stood up and took two steps, but then slowly stepped back, lowering her head and saying, "You guys go ahead, I'll go boil some hot water. He's been so tired from the journey, he needs a bath."

Li Xiaohu was puzzled and said, "There's no rush to boil water. It's the same thing if I come back and boil it..."

Before he could finish his words, Zhao Chunhua pulled him aside, tapped his forehead, and said, "You are such a blockhead, can't you see what your sister is thinking?"

Li Xiaohu was completely bewildered. "What's on your mind?"

Zhao Chunhua waved her hand and said, "Forget it if you don't understand. Hurry up and pack your things. Let's go home today and come back tomorrow."

Li Xiaohu was getting more and more confused. "Why? My brother-in-law is back from his college entrance exams. We should celebrate. Why would we go home?"

Zhao Chunhua was so angry that she laughed, "Brother-in-law and sister haven't seen each other for a few days. They must have a lot of things to do. Why don't we stay here and serve as oil lamps?"

Li Xiaohu suddenly understood and said, "If you had said that earlier, I would have understood it earlier. Okay, then I'll go pack my things."

Because he only needed to go back for one night, Li Xiaohu didn't pack anything, just a small bag.

Li Xiuzhi saw him coming out of the house carrying a bundle and asked in confusion, "Xiao Hu, what are you doing?"

Li Xiaohu was an honest child. He said, "When your brother-in-law comes back, you two will definitely kiss..."

Zhao Chunhua was embarrassed. She rushed over to cover her man's mouth and whispered, "Why are you saying anything?"

Li Xiuzhi's face also turned red, and she said, "Xiao Hu, what nonsense are you talking about?"

Now that the topic was open, Zhao Chunhua didn't hide it anymore and said, "Sister, as the saying goes, a short absence is better than a new marriage. My brother-in-law has been gone for a few days, and you must have a lot to talk about. If we stay, we will disturb you."

"So Xiaohu and I will go back first and come back tomorrow morning."

Li Xiuzhi was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into. She said, "Chunhua, why are you like this?"

"What happened to Chunhua?"

Chen Lang carried Guoguo on his back, held the hands of two little girls, Lanlan and Cuicui, and walked into the yard with a little gray cat circling around his feet.

Guoguo, who was riding on Chen Lang's neck, was so happy that her face blossomed with joy. She kept shouting, "Daddy is back, Daddy is back!"

Zhao Chunhua smiled and said, "Brother-in-law, how did you do on the exam?"

Chen Lang said, "It's not a big problem. I may not get a good ranking, but I'm almost certain to be on the list."

"Congratulations, brother-in-law." Zhao Chunhua said.

Chen Lang said, "Don't congratulate me yet. This is just a county exam. If you want to become a scholar, you still have two more levels to pass."

At this moment, Chen Lang noticed the bag in Li Xiaohu's hand and asked in confusion, "What? Are you going out?"

Before Li Xiaohu could speak, Zhao Chunhua replied, "The elderly at home miss their child. We're going to go back and see him. We'll come back tomorrow."

Chen Lang is not a simple man like Li Xiaohu, and he immediately understood the hidden subtext of Zhao Chunhua's words.

This is to create some space for myself and Li Xiuzhi to be alone.

Although Zhao Chunhua is a country woman, she is very thoughtful.

Li Xiaohu, the son-in-law, does not feel wronged at all.

"It's not too late to leave after dinner." Chen Lang put Guoguo down: "We have an ox cart at home, so it will be convenient to go back."

Li Xiuzhi quickly said, "Yes, yes, even if we have to go back, we can still have a meal."

Zhao Chunhua thought for a moment and said, "Okay, let's eat first and then leave."

Afterwards, Li Xiuzhi and Zhao Chunhua went to the kitchen to prepare dinner, while Chen Lang chatted with Li Xiaohu in the yard and gave some guidance to the three girls on their homework.

After the meal was cooked, Sun Yuwei and Chen Tao were called to eat together.

However, what was unexpected was that Li Xiaohu was too happy and got drunk, and no matter how much people called him, he couldn't be woken up.

So Zhao Chunhua had to give up the idea of returning to Shanghe Village.

Since I can't go back, I have to do something to help my brother-in-law and sister.

For example, he would hold Guoguo, who kept insisting on sleeping with his parents, and let him sleep next to him.
