Bring your aunt to eat big meat, the scumbag father's family is furious
Chapter 256 3-Year Agreement
Some people take exams all their lives but still remain just scholars. This is the fate of many students.
Although he is now a student on government academy, it does not mean that he can eat the emperor's food for the rest of his life with this status.
Because every two years, there will be an assessment, and if you fail the assessment, the imperial grain will be stopped from being distributed.
It can be said that his future is not settled at all and he is still in the stage of hard work.
In such a situation, how could he dare to think about getting married?
Old Man Qiao winked at him and said, "Xinghe, what do you think of our Xier?"
Mu Xinghe was stunned for a moment. Was this what Old Man Qiao meant? His face started to heat up, and he lowered his eyelids in embarrassment.
"Grandpa Qiao, I—"
"Just tell me, are you willing to marry Xi'er from our Qiao family?"
Of course he was willing to marry her.
That day when he left for the exam, he saw her sitting under the osmanthus tree, with a few osmanthus flowers falling on her head. It was so beautiful, quiet and peaceful. He would never forget this scene.
Mu Xinghe's heart surged, his fingers clasped together his palms, and then slowly released them.
"I, Xi'er is a good girl."
"Don't play the nice guy card, just tell me whether you are willing or not." Old man Qiao said with a slightly stern face.
Everyone knows that this is the first sentence to reject someone.
Mu Xinghe raised his head. He had always been very simple and didn't dress up much, just wanting to be clean and refreshed. But when you looked closely, his eyebrows, eyes, and facial features were quite handsome.
A trace of longing appeared on his face: "I do. I want to marry Miss Xier."
Old Mrs. Qiao asked Qiao Xier to bring the sugar cakes into the main room. She came outside with the plate and just heard the conversation.
She suddenly understood why her family was so enthusiastic about Mu Xinghe. It turned out that they wanted to marry her to Mu Xinghe.
To be honest, she had no feelings for Mu Xinghe before, but with her parents' orders and the matchmaker's words, and seeing that her family all had this intention, she began to consider the feasibility of this arrangement.
When I think about it carefully, Mu Xinghe has good character. He is calm, low-key and responsible. He is also good-looking. He is also a grateful and sensible person.
If anyone marries such a person for the rest of her life, he will definitely not treat her unfairly.
In comparison, Shen Liang is just a show-off with nothing on the surface. His behavior is superficial, but a person's character is the most important and the foundation of his life.
If you don’t know how to behave as a human being, you are not worthy of being a human being!
Besides, Mu Xinghe passed the examination to become a scholar, and he has a bright future in the future. Even if he fails to pass the imperial examination in his lifetime, with his results, he can become a teacher in a private school, or work as a clerk in the county government to assist in managing public security.
Mr. Wang, a scholar in the village, has a certain degree of tax exemption, so he owns many lands of landlords in the town. He gets a lot of returns from the landlords every year, and he lives a happy life with his family. As he has studied hard, he will definitely live a good life.
After what happened with Shen Liang, she wanted to find a down-to-earth and decent person to spend her life with. Mu Xinghe had a bright future, which was far beyond her needs and wants. Isn't this her blessing?
She thought again that the look in Mu Xinghe's eyes when he looked at her seemed to reveal a certain kind of heat.
He should be interested in him.
And he had agreed, so why was she still hesitating?
Qiao Xier walked in with the sugar cakes, placed them on the small table, and filled Mu Xinghe's cup of tea.
They were so close that Mu Xinghe could smell the faint fragrance emanating from her body. He remained silent and took two more breaths.
Looking at Qiao Xier, his eyes became more and more burning.
"Xier, grandpa has talked to Xinghe and promised you to him. Xinghe has no problem with it, but what about you?" asked Old Man Qiao.
He believed that Qiao Xier had heard something outside just now, and judging from her attitude, she didn't seem to resist.
Mu Xinghe was a little nervous. He had nothing now, while the Qiao family was getting better and better and had even built a big yard. He was a little worried that Qiao Xier would look down on him.
In fact, now we are gambling on his future.
"Grandpa, I will follow the arrangements of my family." Qiao Xier said, her voice a little light, like a gust of wind, passing through Mu Xinghe's heart.
Then Qiao Xier blushed and hurried out.
Old Man Qiao laughed heartily. "That's no problem, Xinghe. Your mother just passed away, so you're not supposed to marry for three years. But we can arrange this marriage first. My Xi'er will wait for you for three years."
Mu Xinghe also considered this issue. He looked at Old Man Qiao with emotion and said, "Grandpa Qiao, are you really willing to wait for me for three years? What if I fail the exam after three years?"
"Then I'll still marry Xi'er to you."
Such a promise was an affirmation of him as a person. Mu Xinghe was shocked and deeply moved.
"Okay, then I will do my best to create a good future for myself and Xier. I want her to enjoy happiness for the rest of her life." Mu Xinghe made a promise solemnly.
Every word comes from the heart.
When he was in the most difficult time and almost couldn't take the exam, she took out all the money she had saved, and the Qiao family lent him extra money and taught him some exam preparation skills, all of which he used after he arrived in the provincial capital.
The reason he passed the imperial examination was not only due to his own efforts, but also due to the trust and help of the Qiao family.
Old Man Qiao continued, "Xinghe, since you have no parents at home, you should bring a matchmaker and come to our Xier to propose marriage. The term is three years."
"Well, Grandpa Qiao, now that it's settled, I know what to do." Mu Xinghe said.
He can't wait to do it now.
A table full of sumptuous dishes was placed on the table, steaming hot and so fragrant that it made people dizzy.
Mu Xinghe knew that the Qiao family lived a good life, but he didn't expect it to be so good.
Thinking that Qiao Xier had meat to eat every day, he secretly decided that after she married him, her living standard must not be lowered.
Old Mrs. Qiao gave one chicken leg to Qiao Jianer and the other to Mu Xinghe.
"Xinghe, you've worked hard to prepare for the exam, eat more."
Mu Xinghe is such a grown man, but he still feels a little embarrassed with a big chicken leg in his bowl.
He picked up the chicken leg and put it in Qiao Xier's bowl.
"Xi'er, eat."
Qiao Xier's heart moved slightly.
Mu Xinghe had walked for dozens of miles and was tired and hungry. The rice was so delicious that he ate three big bowls before he felt his strength restored.
When he returned, the Qiao family gave him another twenty kilograms of good rice.
Mu Xinghe couldn't refuse and could only accept it with tears. He had no rice at home now, and he had to go to the county government to collect the imperial grain and salary a month later.
"Brother Xinghe, my sister Xier waited for Shen Liang for so many years but was let down. Now she has to wait for you for three years. In three years, she will be almost nineteen years old. I hope you can cherish her."
"If I don't keep my promise, I will be worse than pigs and dogs, and I will not be worthy of being a scholar." Mu Xinghe said angrily. Not to mention the Qiao family, he even wanted to beat Shen Liang up for not knowing how to cherish such a good girl.
"I'll go find Uncle Zhao first and set a date to issue the engagement letter."
