The Daily Life of a Rich Peasant's Boy in the Imperial Examination

Su glared at Yun Jie'er again. This daughter-in-law was so unreliable even when reading a letter. She must not be allowed to read letters next time.

I would rather wait for Hu Ming to come back from the hall to read.

He looked at the little fat girl in his arms again and became more determined to let her learn to read at the age of three so that he could order his granddaughter to do things openly in the future.

Su asked again, "What else did Shanzi say in the letter? Why are there bandits over there?"

Sun Bomin also asked nervously: "Yeah, why are there still bandits over there? Fortunately, we brought enough people this time, so the mountain is safe. Well, I think we should select a few more men to go over. I always feel uneasy when we are away from home. I will feel at ease if I bring more villagers with me."

It costs money, but the most important thing is that the mountain is safe.

At most, the couple could plant more flowers and fruits at home and earn more money.

Sister Yun said, "Brother Shan said in his letter that these bandits weren't from Yuanlu County, but had fled from somewhere else. We just happened to run into them. He's in office now and is safe in the city. He told us not to worry. Brother Shan has a lot of guards around him, so the bandits didn't dare to act rashly. We were completely caught this time, so we couldn't fight them."

Although Sun Shan kept saying that he was fine, Su and Sun Bomin were still very worried. They wanted to find a suitable opportunity to send more people to Sun Shan.

Their only child is living alone outside, and his parents are worried about him.

Zeng Jiajun heard that they were bandits who had fled from other places and there were no locals.

He hurriedly asked, "Did Ah Shan tell us in his letter why the bandits from other places fled here?"

This is such a coincidence, how could we meet?

My brother-in-law's luck is really strange. If I say lucky, he is quite lucky. He was fine even if he encountered bandits. But if I say unlucky, he is really unlucky. Strange things always happen to him.

Zeng Jiajun glanced at Xia Tou inadvertently. Is Xia Tou's life too smooth?

Do you have to be as bizarre as Sun Shan to achieve great things?

It is said that those great figures who have left their names in history always had their lives full of ups and downs. Could it be that Sun Shan will also be remembered in history and become a legendary figure?

His shrimp heads are so successful, could it be that he is just an ordinary person and is lost in the crowd?

Zeng Jiajun had some wild thoughts, but in the end he still hoped that Xiatou would be successful and become a great man who would be remembered forever.

The kind that wants both.

Sister Yun explained again, "Brother Shan's letter said that while they were suppressing bandits in other places, some of the bandits escaped, and that's why they showed up in Yuanlu County."

After a pause, he continued, "Brother Shan said that there aren't many bandits in Yuanlu, and this encounter was purely coincidental. Now that the remaining bandits have been captured, there won't be any more in the future. He's very safe in Yuanlu. Don't worry, Dad and Mom."

Hanlu and Su Shi cursed at the same time: "Those people are really stupid. They wanted to suppress the bandits, but why did they not do it thoroughly? Why did they let the bandits escape? It's really useless.

If you don't know how to suppress them, don't suppress them. This caused Shanzi to encounter bandits. Fortunately, God blesses him, the ancestors of the Sun family bless him, and my father-in-law bless him, so Shanzi was able to stride forward. "

Hanlu said to Su and Sun Bomin, "Mother, Father, we have to go to Yezhupo later or tomorrow to burn some incense so that Grandpa can always bless Shanzi. Shanzi was picked up by Grandpa, and Grandpa must also hope that Shanzi will be safe and sound."

Su looked at the sky. It was getting late and there was no time to prepare the sacrifice today.

He said, "Let's go again tomorrow and buy more offerings so that your grandfather can eat to his heart's content. That way, he can bless Shanzi even more vigorously."

Speaking of Wild Boar Hill, Zeng Jiajun was also moved. He glanced at Xiatou and said, "Father-in-law, let Xiatou go with us to worship. Ask Grandpa to bless Xiatou to pass the high school entrance examination. Grandpa is the most famous Wenchang Emperor in Huangyang County."

Hanlu also glanced at Xiatou and looked at Su hopefully.

Ever since Shanzi graduated from high school, someone spread the word that Doctor Sun from Yezhupo in Sunjia Village was not good at treating people, but at blessing scholars in their studies.

As long as you kowtow sincerely, if Doctor Sun is happy, you might be able to pass the imperial examination and become an official like Sun Shan.

Therefore, many parents who come here to pay their respects will bring generous offerings.

In the end, the offerings such as meat, fruits, peanuts, melon seeds, cakes and candies were given to the five-guarantee households guarding the Sunlang Temple in Yezhupo.

The village chief and Sun Bomin discussed and decided that the ancestral hall could be built but the Sun Lang Temple in Yezhupo must be completed.

After Sun Shan graduated from high school, he "spent a huge amount of money" to build a three-room Sun Lang Temple. He even asked the village's five-guarantee households to guard the temple overnight and also gave subsidies to the five-guarantee households in a disguised way.

Su glanced at Hanlu and Zeng Jiajun, then at Xiatou, who was dressed elegantly in a long gown, and then at the plump little girl in her arms. Finally, she nodded and said, "Okay, tomorrow you two should buy some offerings and come with me to worship, so that your grandfather can also bless Xiatou to pass the imperial examination and become a high-ranking official like his uncle."

Then Su glared at Sister Yun again.

This daughter-in-law is really useless. After so many years of marriage, she only has one big fat granddaughter.

There was no trace of the fat grandson.

Humph, if there was a fat grandson, Su would not allow her daughter, son-in-law, and grandson to go to worship.

What if the father-in-law prefers his grandson-in-law but not his biological grandson?

Now that the grandson hasn't come yet, it's okay to ask the father-in-law to bless the grandson. As a grandmother, she is still reasonable.

Yun Jieer, the innocent victim: ...

My mother-in-law often glares at me, but I just have to wait and see. As long as she is happy, as long as she still takes care of the little fat girl, as long as she doesn't stop me from eating, everything else is fine.

Su, Sun Boming, Hanlu, and Zeng Jiajun discussed the offerings they would bring.

Sun Bomin suddenly remembered the letter and asked, "What else did Shanzi say in the letter?"

It was a thick stack, so it must have quite a lot of information. I was really nervous just now because of the "bandit" incident.

Now that he knew Sun Shan was fine and had asked his father for protection, Sun Boming felt a little relieved.

Sister Yun was depressed by what was said next.

He said gloomily, "Father, Mother, Brother Shan asked us not to go over there yet. Although the bandits have been wiped out, the situation is still not peaceful. If we go over there and encounter bandits like Brother Shan did, Brother Shan would never dare to think about it.

Brother Shan told us to stay in Sunjia Village until the situation in Yuanlu County becomes clearer and there are no more bandits escaping from other places before we go there.”

Speaking of this, Sister Yun became unhappy.

Although staying in Sunjia Village was enjoyable with good food and drink, without Shan Ge around, it felt like something was missing and it became boring.

More importantly, without Brother Shan, how can she give birth to a son and how can she get a younger brother for Xiaoxiao?

Sister Yun glanced at the little fat girl in her mother-in-law's arms.

I thought to myself: If I don’t reunite with Brother Shan, little Fatty won’t even know she has a father.

Poor little fat girl, she has no way to feel her father's love and has become a single-parent left-behind child.
