"Are we going back to the county today?" Old Lady Yun asked her son, who was packing his luggage, with reluctance in her eyes.

"Well, Mom, the imperial examination is not far away, and I need to prepare in advance." Yun Tingqing said to his mother seriously while sorting his things.

Tiantian, who was standing by, was filled with reluctance when she heard that her uncle was about to leave.

She hugged her uncle's thigh tightly, unwilling to let go. Yun Tingqing gently stroked Tiantian's furry little head and comforted her softly, "Tiantian, be good. When your uncle comes back next time, I'll help you get the top scorer. That way, Tiantian can become a lovely lady like other little girls in the future, okay?"

"Then you have to work harder, Uncle San!" Tiantian raised her head and gave Uncle San a sweet smile.

"Okay, our Tiantian must behave well at home." Yun Tingqing reminded with a smile.

"Mom, I'll be leaving first. Please tell everyone later on my behalf." Yun Tingqing didn't say goodbye to others because he was worried that the scene of farewell would affect the joyful atmosphere of the first day of the new year.

"Okay, be careful on the road. Now that our family has bought a carriage, I will ask Yin Er to take you to the county." Old Lady Yun looked at her son, her eyes full of worry and reluctance.

She knew that her son would have to travel hard again, but she could only support him silently.

"Well, mom, take Tiantian into the house quickly. It's cold, don't catch a cold." Yun Tingqing instructed with concern.

He knew that his mother cared about him and that he had a heavy responsibility on his shoulders, so he did not dare to slack off in the slightest.

Old Lady Yun and Tiantian stood in the backyard until Yun Tingqing's back could no longer be seen. Then they went back into the warm house hand in hand.

The house is filled with a warm atmosphere, making people feel particularly comfortable.

"Grandma, is Uncle Shen going to learn carpentry?" Tiantian suddenly remembered what her grandma and great-grandfather talked about last night. Curiosity surged in her heart, so she asked her grandma.

Old Lady Yun smiled, stroked Tiantian's head gently and said, "Silly child, we don't have the money to send your Uncle Shen to learn. Your Uncle Shen figured it out all by himself at home." Her tone was full of pride, as if she was praising her own son.

Tiantian's eyes lit up, and she couldn't help but sigh in her heart, as expected, her uncle Shen is very talented!

It is really admirable that he was able to understand the cart drawings and make the cart so quickly.

"Grandma, why doesn't Uncle Shen open a workshop?" Tiantian asked with a puzzled look, blinking her big eyes.

Old Mrs. Yun sighed helplessly: "Silly child, it's not that you don't want to open it, but it's useless to open it. These days every household can do some handicrafts, and everyone can make ordinary things by themselves. If it's really complicated, they will go to the big factories in town to help make it." She looked at her granddaughter's cute face, her heart full of heartache.

My eldest brother's family has not been well off in recent years, and now that my family's conditions are better, I naturally want to help them, but I don't know how to start.

At this moment, Tiantian suddenly remembered something. She stretched out her little hand and handed the paper that Xiaoxiao had found in the warehouse last night to Old Lady Yun: "Grandma, look at this."

Old Lady Yun took the paper and looked at it. There were various exquisite patterns drawn on it. Although she was illiterate, she could tell from the patterns that it was a toy made for children. It looked very exquisite and she was sure that wealthy families would rush to buy it.

"Tianbao, do you mean to give this to your Uncle Shen and let him make it and then sell it?" asked Old Lady Yun with a smile.

Tiantian nodded vigorously and replied in a baby voice, "Well, this way Uncle Shen can make money, and Brother Li will have something to do."

"That's great. When your great-grandfather comes to pay New Year's greetings, grandma will give this to your uncle." After hearing her grandma's agreement, Tiantian ran away happily. She was going to find sister Xia Yao to play together!

Not long after, Tiantian arrived at the front yard and saw Xia Yao and Pi Pi and other children making a snowman. Suddenly, she saw the grandfather and his family coming towards them.

"Grandpa, Happy New Year." Tiantian, Xia Yao, Pipi and other little kids quickly stood in a row and greeted the grandpa in unison.

Then, they greeted Uncle Shen, Aunt Mei, and Brother Li in turn. Tiantian finally finished greeting everyone, which was not easy for a child. After all, she said so much at once that she couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Tiantian, come here, this is for you from grandpa, take it." Grandpa smiled and touched Tiantian's head, then took out a shiny copper coin from his pocket and carefully placed it in Tiantian's little hand.

Afterwards, Uncle Shen, Aunt Mei, Brother Li and others followed suit and took out copper coins and handed them to Tiantian.

After a while, Tiantian's little hands could hardly hold the coins anymore, so she generously gave some of the copper coins to her brother and sister Xia Yao.

"Miss, I'll hold it for you and put it in your box later." Xia Yao didn't dare to accept the money from Tiantian, so she said to Tiantian.

"This is the money Tiantian gave to her sister~" Tiantian said to Xia Yao with a pout. She knew that as long as she pretended to be angry, Xia Yao would agree to whatever she said.

Sure enough, when Xia Yao saw her mistress pouting and looking unhappy, she quickly took the money.
