Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious

"You restless thing." Old Mrs. Qiao scolded.

The Qiao family harvested from the riverside upwards, so the land that the Shen family compensated had to be left a little later.

This is also because when the Shen family first started planting rice, their progress was slow for a few days. Later, the rice would be more mature.

Old Mrs. and Old Man Qiao immediately returned to the yard and came down with their weapons, including machetes, sticks, ropes, forks, and everything else.

"They're itching for trouble. I'll beat them till they roll on the ground."

"They thought there were only a few women left in the family who were easy to bully. Let them see the fighting power of the women of our Qiao family."

Originally, the Shen family had accepted their fate, but when they saw the men of the Qiao family had set off, they couldn't help but become restless.

They couldn't beat the men of the Qiao family, but they could always beat the women, so they became more unrestrained.

"That's right, old woman, rolling around isn't enough, you also have to pee your pants and pee like a jerk." Old man Qiao was also full of fighting spirit, even a little bit unconvinced.

Who said there were no men in the family? Wasn't he a man? Did the Shen family treat him as if he didn't exist?

Qiao Yunni and the others were wary of the Shen family at first, glancing up from time to time. The Shen family was doing their own work and did not behave in any unusual manner.

They never expected that when they let their guard down, the Shen family came secretly.

When the Shen family members started cutting the rice with sickles at a rapid speed, they were suddenly startled.

"What are you doing, Shen family? That's our Qiao family's field, get out."

All the women of the Qiao family rushed forward.

Old Mrs. Qiao and the others also rushed down.

One in front and one behind, attacking from both sides.

Qiao Jianer and Qiao Zhizhi put down the barrels and threw weapons to everyone.

The machete, the fork, the stick, everyone handled it with confidence.

Everyone was brandishing weapons, filled with murderous intent, even the air was flowing.

It was like a fierce-looking wild beast coming down the mountain to tear people apart.

The woman from the Shen family was so scared that she ran away quickly. The man wanted to resist, but was whipped several times and hit on the leg with a stick. He ran out screaming and jumping, begging for mercy in a hurry and saying that he would not dare to do it again.

They don't want to be like the Song family, lying in bed for seven, eight or ten days.

Only then did the Qiao family give up.

"You have harmed our Shen Liang, and you still want these rice. You are too greedy." Liu said angrily with her hands on her hips.

Old Mrs. Qiao: "Who harmed your Shen Liang? Didn't he deserve it? Besides, isn't Shen Liang still alive? He's still alive. God is taking care of him. Why don't you thank him?"

"I advise you to accumulate virtue and blessings, and look for the reasons within yourself, so as not to make the same mistakes over and over again, and suffer even greater misfortune one day."

The two sides cursed at each other for a while, their words were fierce, and saliva was flying in the sun. Seeing that the Qiao family was about to come up with weapons again, the Shen family got scared, shut up, and obediently busy themselves with things in the fields.

The Qiao family won a great victory.

"Let's harvest these three acres of land first. It's best to put the money in our pockets." said Old Mrs. Qiao.

Everyone agrees.

Qiao Jianer took out pineapples from the bucket and gave each person a big piece.

"What is this?" Qiao Yunni asked.

"Mom, this is called pineapple. It's sweet and thirst-quenching."

Everyone took a bite and nodded, saying it was delicious. Most of the summer heat in their bodies dissipated, and their mouths were filled with a sweet fragrance.

I have never seen it, and there is no need to ask where it came from. I just know that if you have a sickle at home, you can enjoy things that others cannot enjoy.

After quenching their thirst, everyone continued to work.

A man came up from below carrying a book box.

Mu Xinghe's home is at the southernmost part of the village, almost close to the river, so when he leaves the village, he will come here.

"Grandpa Qiao, Grandma Qiao, your family's rice is growing very well this year. Congratulations on your harvest." Mu Xinghe said politely.

Now that he had enough money, the young man's face was relieved. He could go to take the exam without distraction.

Old Man Qiao was very happy to hear this and laughed heartily: "This kid is so sweet. Xinghe, come here."

Mu Xinghe didn't know what Old Man Qiao wanted him to do, so he walked into the field anyway.

Old man Qiao took out a piece of pineapple from the bucket and said, "This will quench your thirst. Take it and eat it."

Mu Xinghe thanked him, took it, took a bite, and his expression relaxed. He nodded hurriedly, "It's delicious, but I've never seen it before."

"My sickle girl found it in the mountains. It's called Pineapple."

Old Man Qiao looked at Mu Xinghe's bookcase again and said, "It seems that you have passed the child exam."

"Yes, Grandpa Qiao, I'm going to take the college entrance examination."

"Ah, the exam is only a few days away, you have to catch up on your schedule."

"Yeah, we can make it in time."

"Xinghe, when you get to the provincial capital, find an inn close to the exam venue and stay there. Visit the exam hall a few times to familiarize yourself with it. Be courteous to other students. If anyone provokes you, try to remain calm and avoid conflict. Focus on the exam first."

"Now that you and your sister are the only ones left in your family, you have to be successful so that you and your sister can live a good life in the future. Don't blame Grandpa Qiao for his harsh words. Without your parents, this is the only way for you. Otherwise, not only can you marry a good girl, but your sister will never be able to marry into a good family."

Xinghe's eyes turned red when he heard this. The Mu family's relatives didn't take care of her, so he placed his sister at her grandmother's house on this trip to take the exam, and gave her two hundred coins before he felt at ease to go out.

"Grandpa Qiao is doing this for my own good. I know this is not my suffering, but my motivation." A hint of determination appeared in Mu Xinghe's eyes.

"If you don't pass this time, try again next time, until you pass."

Seeing him so receptive to instruction, Old Man Qiao nodded and said, "Among the younger students in the village, I think you are the most steady and polite, so I'll talk to you for a while."

"By the way, Xinghe, do you have enough money for the trip? Are you financially comfortable?"

It's not that Old Man Qiao is being kind-hearted. Anyone would feel sympathy when seeing a child from such a poor family who is so studious. Moreover, given the Qiao family's current financial situation, helping a student is not a difficult task.

"That's enough. I haven't told Grandpa Qiao yet. I just went to your house to borrow some money. Sister Xier happened to be home, so she lent me her five taels of silver."

Mu Xinghe said this, feeling a little embarrassed.

"Five taels is not enough. We need to bribe them." Old man Qiao shook his head when he heard it.

"That's enough, Grandpa Qiao. I've calculated it carefully, and five taels is absolutely fine."

"Oh, you don't understand, kid. Although I haven't participated in any scientific examinations, I'm old enough to know some of the intricacies of life."

Old Man Qiao lowered his voice and said, "The scientific expedition is rigorous, but there are some things to pay attention to. For example, some areas are well ventilated, while others aren't. If you stay in there for too long, you'll get dizzy."

"Also, some people will sell a rough estimate of the test questions and predict a few questions. One of them will appear on the test paper, and it's pretty much guaranteed. This is information you get from the examiner. If you do some research, you can get it. Then, concentrate on preparing, and your chances of passing will be much greater."

Mu Xinghe opened his eyes wide. He had not expected that the imperial examination system would be so complicated.

"Isn't this cheating?"
