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

late at night.

Li Xiaohu woke up from his drunken stupor and felt extremely thirsty. When he was about to get out of bed to get some water, he suddenly heard some strange sounds.

Li Xiaohu, who already has two children, naturally knows what this is.

He was already extremely thirsty, and these sounds made his thirst even worse, and a fire ignited in his heart.

Out of instinct, Li Xiaohu touched his wife who was sleeping next to him.

As soon as I touched a certain place, I felt Zhao Chunhua tremble.

Li Xiaohu quickly turned his head and saw Zhao Chunhua staring at him with loving eyes.

The two haven't been intimate for a long time since their injuries, and now with "off-field help", it's becoming a little unbearable for both young men.

However, just when the two were about to hug each other and express their affection, the second child who was sleeping in the innermost position suddenly started crying.

Erwa's crying was like a bucket of cold water, extinguishing the fire in the hearts of the young couple.

Zhao Chunhua picked up the baby and coaxed him, but the baby kept scratching at her chest with his hands, looking for food.

Zhao Chunhua undressed and breastfed the baby. Li Xiaohu glanced at her and quickly turned his eyes away.

This is really something that will make you explode if you look at it for a second longer.

Erwa stopped crying and there was no movement next door.

It should be done.

Li Xiaohu got out of bed and walked to the kitchen on crutches. He had to drink some cold water.

Although my brother-in-law has finished the job, the fire in my heart has not been extinguished yet.

Li Xiaohu had just drunk a bellyful of cold water and returned to his room, thinking he could take a nap, when the voice rang out again.

"Brother-in-law, is it really okay for a scholar like you to be so aggressive?" Li Xiaohu wanted to cry, but he couldn't. He turned his head to look at Zhao Chunhua who was still breastfeeding in the bed, and then looked at the two little girls Guoguo and Cuicui who were sleeping in a mess at the end of the bed. He said sadly and angrily, "I must go home and stay for two days tomorrow!"

Zhao Chunhua almost laughed out loud.

……

The next day.

After helping to make the tofu, Li Xiaohu took Zhao Chunhua and the two children back to Shanghe Village.

Li Xiuzhi tried to persuade him to stay, but Li Xiaohu was firm in his attitude.

Chen Lang walked over and said, "Let Xiaohu go back. The elderly at home haven't seen the child for a few days, and they must miss him very much."

Li Xiaohu nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes."

"Brother-in-law, can you lend me the ox cart?"

Chen Lang said, "You can use it as you like, but I have to go to the county town to check the rankings in three days, so you have to return the car."

Li Xiaohu said: "Three days? That's enough."

After sending the two out the door, Chen Lang pulled Li Xiaohu and whispered, "You're still injured, take it easy."

Li Xiaohu looked a little embarrassed and said, "Okay brother-in-law, I will pay attention."

"Also, the Zhao family father and son will most likely come to you to apologize. Even if you don't forgive them, don't push them too hard."

"After all, they are the patriarchs of the Zhao family. Even if you don't consider yourself, you have to consider your son and daughter." Chen Lang reminded.

Li Xiaohu said, "Brother-in-law, I know what's going on."

"Go." Chen Lang patted Li Xiaohu's shoulder and watched the family of four go away.

After Li Xiaohu left, Li Xiuzhi hit Chen Lang's shoulder hard: "It must be because you were too loud last night that they felt embarrassed to stay."

Chen Lang hugged his wife in his arms and said with a chuckle, "Then let's keep the noise down tonight?"

Over the next two days, Chen Lang gradually became anxious from his initial calmness.

Although the county magistrate, the instructor and the teacher had all said that there would be no problem for him to be on the list, it was just like making money. If the money was not in his pocket, everything he said was meaningless.

If you fail this time, you will have to perform labor service, or pay one hundred taels to be exempted from labor service.

Chen Lang really didn't want to give it to Qian Chuanzi and the old witch in the Qian Palace.

The night before the results were announced, Chen Lang was awakened by a nightmare.

He put on a coat, walked into the yard, and stared at the moon in the sky in a daze.

After an unknown amount of time, Li Xiuzhi came to his side, put her arm around his, and said, "Erlang, don't put too much pressure on yourself. Even if you don't pass the exam, it's okay. Lend me some money to exempt yourself from the corvée service. We can take the exam again next year."

Chen Lang turned around and said with a wry smile, "Was I so obvious?"

"I am your wife. How can you hide your thoughts from me?" Li Xiuzhi said.

Chen Lang said, "I just had a dream. I dreamed that my paper was switched with someone else's. Someone took the provincial examination under my name."

"I went to seek justice, but was killed by the killer hired by the other party. And then they also took you and Guoguo..."

Li Xiuzhi covered Chen Lang's mouth: "Dreams are the opposite of reality, my dear Erlang."

Chen Lang held Li Xiuzhi's hand and said, "Even if this dream is the opposite of what happened, the fact that I did the business is true."

"Teacher has many enemies in the court, and perhaps there are several in Guangling Prefecture."

"If you want to take the exam to become a scholar, you will eventually have to go to Guangling Prefecture. If I run into my teacher's enemies there, I won't even have the chance to take the exam."

"I know it's unfair to the teacher to think this way, because he had no intention of accepting me. I was the one who begged and pleaded to be his student. But thinking is something that I can't control just because I want to."

Li Xiuzhi held Chen Lang's face with both hands and said seriously, "Erlang, I understand your feelings, but you are wrong to think so."

"Didn't you tell me that when Mr. Sheng accepted you as his disciple, he gave you eight words?"

"Look up to the heavens and look down to the earth."

"Everything you do is worthy of heaven and earth, and worthy of your conscience. Why should you be afraid of villains getting in the way?"

Chen Lang was stunned for a moment, then excitedly picked up Li Xiuzhi and spun around several times.

"Xiuzhi, Xiuzhi, how many good deeds did I do in my previous life to be able to marry you in this life?"

"You're right, everything I do is just to survive."

"I have not let down the heaven and earth, nor have I let down the saints!"

"No one should use this to attack me!"

Chen Lang, who had let go of his worries, felt like he had endless energy. He looked at the main house, but Guoguo had not come out.

So he carried Li Xiuzhi directly to the room where Li Xiaohu and his wife slept before.

Li Xiuzhi blushed and said no, but after entering the room, she took the initiative to close the door.

After all, that thing is really interesting.

The day of result announcement.

Chen Lang brought his wife and children to the county town in a ox cart.

He had promised his mistress that he would bring his family to visit them when the results were announced.

After entering the county town, the streets were full of horse-drawn carriages, ox-drawn carts, sedan chairs, and even a band dressed in red and green.

These bands were all invited by merchants. If their own children made it to the list, even if they were last in the list, they would play music and sing and celebrate along the streets.

At such times, the ruffians and beggars in the county town are the happiest, because merchants will give red envelopes to both sides from time to time.

Although a red envelope may only have two or three cents, but even a small amount is still meat!

Chen Lang drove the ox cart and slowly followed the large group towards the county school.

The journey that was supposed to take only a quarter of an hour took almost an hour to complete.

When I arrived at the county school, the first thing I heard was not excited shouts, but painful wails.

"Don't force me to do forced labor... I can still take the exam... I can still take the exam..."

"Sir, wait a minute, my name must be on it, it must be there, they just forgot to write it. I don't want to do corvée labor, I can't do corvée labor, I'm a scholar!"
