The seven emotions and six desires are all my nourishment

Liu Xiao'e took the copper coin and stood up happily. When she saw Hua Ganji inadvertently, she was frightened by his eyes. She subconsciously took a few steps back, holding her stomach, her heart pounding.

In the end, Hua Ganji in her dream was too much, too powerful, too cruel, and too ruthless. Now, looking at his cruel eyes, she was still subconsciously afraid.

She didn't dare to go too far and only took half of the copper coins each time.

After all, if they took all the copper coins, those people would make trouble for their family. They took half of them because Hua Ganji was still living in their house, and no one could say anything.

Besides, she is going to give birth to her second baby this year, and she needs money everywhere.

Ever since Hua Ganji's status as a scholar was stripped by the imperial court and he was pursued for debts, he was driven to live in the woodshed.

He went from being the apple of his parents' eye to becoming a scholar husband who was polite to everyone he met. His first half of life could be considered smooth sailing.

Now that I have fallen on hard times, I live in a leaky woodshed...

After meeting Yaoyao and his wife today, Hua Ganji became very silent. Liu Xiaoe was really scared and would rather not take the money and wanted to kick him out.

Boss Hua was also afraid, after all, it was he who broke his leg. What if Hua Ganji remembered it one day and got angry and set them on fire to burn them to death!

He dare not underestimate Hua Ganji!

In this way, when Li Xiucai was about to take the exam, Hua Ganji was driven to their ancestral home.

The house is about to collapse and is overgrown with weeds.

After the village head severely criticized it, Boss Hua made some repairs.

They hurriedly threw Hua Ganji and his bag out, as if he was the source of some plague.

Hua Ganji sat on a stone pier in the dilapidated courtyard, looking down at his broken fingers and deformed legs...

"Heh..." A short, cold laugh escaped from his throat.

……

This time, Li Xiucai didn't take Yaoyao with him because the journey was bumpy and they had to sleep in the open. He didn't want Yaoyao to suffer this hardship. After all, he was only away for a month and wouldn't be back until the results were announced.

Secondly, she no longer has to sell pork at home, so she sees fewer beautiful "weeds". With Old Man Zhang watching over her at home, he feels more at ease.

If he took Yaoyao with him, and she met the "weeds" in the capital and was seduced away, what would he do?

Li Xiucai packed his bag and left reluctantly.

Yaoyao was still the same, but he was distracted for two days and then started collecting firewood again, studying how to mix pig feed to grow meat.

Then he would clean the house, or follow his father to the farmers' houses to remove the piglets' testicles.

However, Old Man Zhang was a little distracted. He was worried that after Li Xiucai passed the exam, Yaoyao would become a divorced woman.

As the saying goes: Raise a son for a hundred years, and you will always worry about him when he is ninety-nine. This is exactly what Father Zhang is thinking now.

After all, after he married his daughter, his son-in-law was so outstanding that it was natural for him to say some sour words.

The more it was spread, the more people heard it, and Father Zhang became a little worried.

Look, he had just delivered his pig and was sitting under a tree with a frown on his face.

Seeing that more than a month had passed and Li Xiucai had not returned yet, Old Man Zhang felt uneasy.

Yaoyao washed his hands and splashed the water, "Dad, what's wrong? Is the piglet unhealthy?"

"Oh..." Old Man Zhang looked at Yaoyao, who was still a little silly after getting married, sighed, and touched her head.

Yaoyao's heart skipped a beat, and he ran to the pigpen and counted the piglets back and forth.

Ignoring the old sow's grumbling, he held her with one hand and checked each piglet one by one. He only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that they were all healthy.

Father Zhang: ...

"What are you doing! You scared me to death. If you have something to say, don't keep it to yourself, just say it!" Yaoyao said angrily, fetching water to wash his hands and face.

It was indeed not easy for Father Zhang to hold back for so long. He sighed and said, "Dun'er, if Li Luo passes the imperial examination, he will have one foot in the officialdom..."

"Aren't you talking nonsense?" Yaoyao wiped her face and gave her father a blank look.

"...Dad meant that his future would be even better after he became an official, and we are just butchers. What if...what if he divorces you?" Old Man Zhang frowned, looking really worried.

"Ah, that's all! Hey, why worry about such a small thing!" Yaoyao took a towel to pat the dust off his body and answered nonchalantly.

"What do you mean by this little thing! This is a major event in your life!" Old Man Zhang was almost mad. It really proved the saying that the emperor is not in a hurry, but the eunuchs are.

"Why are you in such a hurry? My husband is honest and trustworthy. He studies hard and does well. Of course, he is also good-looking, hehe." Yaoyao smiled shyly for no reason, which made Father Zhang so angry that he picked up the broom and wanted to hit her.

Li Luo, who looked exhausted, raised the corners of her mouth when she heard this. She stopped knocking on the door, walked into her house like the wind, and came to the small door.

"Don't look at or listen to anything indecent, but I'm just concerned about family matters. I had no choice but to do so. It was an emergency. Don't blame me. Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. That's good, that's good..." Li Luo was eavesdropping and making excuses at the same time. It turns out that scholars are very cunning!

"Haha, my daughter is not stupid, don't worry." She helped her furious father sit down.

"Besides, if my daughter marries him, I won't lose anything even if he gets divorced!"

"Look, the betrothal gifts are mine, and the property deeds are all in my name. I slept with such a handsome man for nothing ~ hehe ~" Old Man Zhang blushed at her shameless words.

"If he really divorces me, that would be great. For one thing, I can stay with you for a long time."

"Secondly, there won't be any government officials forcing me to marry. I can wait a few years before I can find a handsome husband. Haha, that's wonderful."

Yaoyao really looks forward to her life after being divorced. Moreover, she can use words like "Meizai" now. She is also half a scholar, so she is a little proud.

Old Man Zhang seemed to be listening thoughtfully and with a look of joy on his face.

Yes, it’s a good thing to think that way! I just slapped my thigh and was about to shout, when I heard the door panel of the small door slam.

"Don't even think about it!" Li Luo was so angry that his bearded face turned red.

At this time, Father Zhang reacted as quickly as a monkey!

He stood up quickly and said, "Oh, my son-in-law is back. I'll go get some wine..." The word "wine" lingered in his ears, and the man was gone.

Yaoyao shuddered and blinked, "You look so ugly now. Take a shower first. I'll boil some water for you~"

Yaoyao ran very fast, his hands and feet trembling. Li Luo was so angry that his face turned red, but the father and daughter did not give him a chance to vent his anger, and left him standing there in the yard.

He widened his eyes and stared at Yaoyao like a hungry wolf. Yaoyao squatted down to light the fire... He took a deep breath, and after calming himself down, his mind became clearer.

"Heh... I'm not dead yet!"

……

……

No one cares about him.

He calmed down, sat on the small stool with a rather imposing manner, and squinted his eyes at the top of Yaoyao's head that was exposed from the stove.

Yaoyao quietly raised her head and looked at him, then immediately lowered her head and muttered softly, "This scholar, although he is weak and can't do anything, he is quite scary when he loses his temper..."
