==Chapter 26==

The two returned to the house and sat down on the kang.

In order to show that there was indeed a list to be made, Zhao'er even brought pen and ink and asked Xue Tingyan to write it.

She reported the same thing, and Xue Tingyan wrote the same thing on the paper.

Afraid of missing something, I went back and forth with him to confirm. In the end, the two of them spent so much effort but only wrote seven or eight things, six of which were the six rituals for apprenticeship.

There was no need to use pen and paper to write down this little thing. Zhao'er immediately felt a little embarrassed.

However, she would never expose her shortcomings, so she naturally told Xue Tingyan to think about it again, there must be something missing.

Xue Tingyan had no choice but to think hard and add two more items before Zhaoer nodded with satisfaction.

Sun made dinner and asked everyone to eat.

Today, the Xue family still eats together, just like before. However, when cooking every day, each house pays for its own rations. What is eaten at home is taken to the kitchen, and what is not eaten at home is not cooked. As for vegetables, you can eat whatever you want from the vegetable garden and the pickle vat, but they are not worth much anyway.

The atmosphere at the dinner table is much better now than before. It's probably because there are no worries. It's also because Mr. Xue has been unhappy after the separation, and everyone is deliberately trying to please him. The other three-fang people would always deliberately find something to say, but the first-fang people were a bit eccentric, but no one took them seriously.

After eating, Zhao'er helped wash the dishes, then boiled water and planned to take a bath.

Xue Tingyan washed it first. Zhao'er helped carry two buckets of water to the bathroom in the vegetable field behind, and found his change of clothes before taking his dirty clothes to the front yard to wash.

It was dusk, and the farmyard was peaceful and peaceful.

Zhaoer threw the bucket into the well and fetched water.

The bucket emerged from the deep well. Zhao'er grabbed the handle and pulled it up. Just as he was about to pour it into the wooden basin next to him, he was startled by the sudden appearance of someone behind him.

She turned around and saw Xue Juncai standing behind her, looking a little strange.

"What are you doing standing here!"

Xue Juncai's eyes flashed: "I'll find some water to wash my hands."

Zhaoer glanced at him, then picked up a bucket and poured some water into a wooden basin in the corner.

This was for him to wash his hands, Xue Juncai walked over.

Zhao'er didn't look at him anymore, took the soap locust and started washing his clothes.

She lowered her head, feeling that there was another figure in front of her, and raised her head angrily: "Why are you standing in front of me?"

Xue Juncai's face turned red: "I want to say thank you."

Zhao'er made a sound, then lowered his head and continued to struggle with the clothes in the basin.

Xue Juncai looked at her half-downcast face and hesitated: "Zhao'er, I know you look down on me, but I will show you how to be a scholar."

"Whether you pass the exam or not has nothing to do with me. As long as you are worthy of my grandpa and grandma!"

These words made Xue Juncai speechless. After a while, he said: "Anyway, I will definitely pass the exam and show it to you. I will let you know that the dog will not be as good as me!"

Let’s show off again! What Zhao'er hates the most is Xue Juncai. Since he was a child, he likes to step on young men to show that he can do it!

She was about to say something, but Xue Juncai left.

It’s simply baffling!

Qinghe Academy and Qingyuan Academy opened on the same day. As early as the first day, Xue Qingshan went out to borrow a mule cart and planned to take Xue Juncai to town early the next morning.

Although the family spent a lot of money to send Xue Juncai to Qinghe Academy and even sold the land, Mr. Xue was very happy at this time. He even told Xue Tingyan that he should leave with Xue Juncai tomorrow morning. Taking a bullock cart was too slow and it would be too late by the time he reached the town.

Although Yang didn't say anything at the side, the nose was not the nose or the face. Zhao'er and Xue Tingyan didn't know how to look at their faces, so they naturally refused.

Back in the house, Zhao'er said to Xue Tingyan: "When we have money in the future, we will quickly build a house and move away."

It turns out that this was the reason why she wanted land or a house before, but Xue Tingyan was not surprised.

"You don't need to worry about this kind of thing, you will only make yourself angry."

Zhao'er looked him up and down, and Xue Tingyan's heart skipped a beat, wondering if she had seen something. Only then did Zhaoer look away: "It's not that I care about it, it's just that I'm a little annoyed."

After that, Xue Tingyan took out the book he got back from Dongliju and copied it, but Zhaoer went out.

He didn't think much about it, he just thought he had some work to do when he was called out, and he came back soon after he was called out.

At dinner, the food on the table was very rich. Mr. Xue specially asked Mrs. Zhao to take the money to buy a piece of meat, brought a pot of tofu, and killed a chicken. Mrs. Zhou and other three daughters-in-law helped Made a meal.

The whole family sat around two tables. The little ones like Maodan, Shuanzi and Youcai are all ready to make a move, but the adults have to wait for Mr. Xue to speak.

Mr. Xue seemed to have a lot to say, but he couldn't start.

After a long time, he sighed and said: "Let's forget about the past. From now on, I hope that you three brothers can live in harmony and work together to live a good life and make the Xue family better and better." Honghuo, even if I die now, I can still sleep."

"Old man, tell me whether you will die or not!"

"That's right, Dad, what do you mean by this!"

"Dad, don't worry. Although we are separated, we are still brothers and a family. What are brothers? They break bones and connect tendons. We will be fine in the future."

Mr.

"Tomorrow is the day when Juncai and Tingyan go to school. Our Xue family has been living in the dirt all our lives. I hope you can make a difference and make a lot of money for the Xue family!"

Although these words were spoken to two people, Mr. Xue was facing Xue Juncai's direction when he spoke, and it was obvious who he valued more.

Under the dim yellow light, Xue Juncai's face flushed with excitement. He stood up: "Grandpa, don't worry, my grandson will definitely not let you down!"

"Okay, okay!" Mr. Xue nodded repeatedly and picked up his chopsticks: "Eat them all. Have a good meal and just cheer up the two little ones."

The meal was extremely harmonious, with laughter and chatter on the table. Everyone avoided unpleasant topics and only picked up pleasant things to say.

Mr. Xue drank too much again, and his face was red. But it was obvious that he was very happy, a joy full of hope and relief that no one could bear to break.

After dinner, everyone dispersed in each room. Mr. Xue smiled and chatted a few words with Mrs. Zhao. In this situation, Mrs. Zhao couldn't put on a bad face, so she slapped him several times and said he didn't know what he was enjoying.

What's the fun? In fact, he didn't know, it was just fun anyway.

Early in the morning, the Xue family got up.

The third and fourth bedrooms didn’t expect it to be so early, but they couldn’t stand the trouble of the big ones. Before dawn, there was constant movement in the east wing, with people constantly coming in and out.

Ms. Yang's voice resounded throughout the yard. She asked Xue Qingshan when the car would arrive, and said she had forgotten to pack something and needed to pack it quickly.

So, everyone got up.

Zhaoer and Xue Tingyan also got up.

Unlike Yang's side, it was quiet here. Zhao'er had packed everything last night. It was such a big bag, containing a bedding mat, a few changes of clothes, and some trivial items that Xue Tingyan used daily.

"Don't wash your clothes if they are dirty. I will go to the library to pick them up for you when I have time. I will send them to you after you wash them. Anyway, I can come back in ten days, and the clothes I brought are enough for you. Okay. Keep the money close to you. There are many people in the school and you should be more careful when you go out. Watch out for gentlemen and not villains. You have to do everything yourself in the first place so as not to cause trouble to yourself. Don’t be harsh on yourself, it’s necessary. Go buy whatever you want. If you don’t have enough money, just tell me.”

Zhaoer chattered like an old woman.

Xue Tingyan stood next to her, watching her check the things she was going to take to the school. Her nagging could be heard in his ears, and he felt a little melancholy.

In fact, he thought about the matter of studying in a dormitory or studying in a dormitory for a long time in private, and finally decided to study in a dormitory.

A dream is a dream after all. Even if this dream is magical, it is not his experience after all. Next, he should focus all his attention on his studies, so he can only temporarily separate from Zhao'er.

"Don't worry, I will take care of myself. And your business, if you can do it, just do it. If you can't, forget it. We still have the land at home, and deducting the food for the third and fourth uncles is enough. We ate and drank. If it wasn’t enough, I copied more books on weekdays, and the money I earned was enough for both of us."

"Yeah, yeah, it's all up to you."

As soon as Zhao'er said this, Xue Tingyan knew that she didn't listen at all.

He had told her several times about this since the separation, and he did not want her to work so hard in business again. But Zhao'er always went in one ear and out the other. At first glance, she didn't take it to heart. She usually said and did things carefully, but she learned to deal with it in this matter.

In this regard, Xue Tingyan was very helpless.

But who should I blame? I can only blame him for being ignorant at that time, thinking that he would recruit a woman from a family to make money just to support himself. He was obviously a man, but he couldn't accept it in his heart, and he had several awkward moments with her.

Because of this, Zhao'er has always avoided talking to him about this issue, but her attitude is very clear. She will not listen to him when it comes to business matters.

Xue Tingyan still wanted to say something, but suddenly there was a sound of voices in the yard.

One of the voices belongs to Jiang Wu.

"Wu Zi, why are you here at this time?"

Jiang Wu wears a dark blue short-brown suit, has a tall and strong figure, and is very heroic. There was still mist on his hair and brows. March in Yuqing Village was still a bit cold, especially as the morning fog had not yet dissipated.

"I'm here to see Ting Yan off to school in the town. Isn't it his first time going to school today? Zhao'er went to his house yesterday to tell him about this. My father asked me to come early so as not to delay."

The person talking to Jiang Wu was Zhou. As soon as he heard this, he understood what was going on.

I have to say that Zhao'er is really high-spirited. Yesterday, he was squeezed out by the big house in front of him, and today he got it back on his own. In Yuqing Village and Hecun Village, the Li Zheng family and the Jiang family had mule carts because they often traveled back and forth between the county and town. As for the Jiang family, they were really rich.

You are still rich without showing off your wealth.

The Jiang family is a low-key family, and their two sons are popular in the village and have good reputations. Among the young generation in Yuqing Village, there are two young people who are most popular. One is Xue Juncai, who is elegant and handsome and can read. The other one is Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu is one of the best among the unmarried young men in the village, both in terms of appearance and wealth. Moreover, he is also good at hunting, and there are many girls in the village who want to marry him.

The Jiang family has an old relationship with their second wife. Jiang Hai, Jiang Wu’s father, and Xue Qingsong, the second son of the Xue family, have a close friendship. However, since the death of Xue Qingsong, when Jiang Hai and Xue Qingshan had a quarrel, the Jiang family rarely went to the house. The Xue family is closed, but everyone in the Xue family knows about this relationship.

So Zhou didn't think much after hearing this, and just took it as a trick and asked Jiang Wu for help.

Zhao'er walked out of the room: "Brother Jiang Wu, why are you here so early? Have you had breakfast?"

"Not yet. I was afraid that I would be late, so I left the house early."

"That's true of you, then just stay home and eat, I'll do it."

Zhao'er turned around and entered the house. Xue Tingyan was still standing at the door, looking at Jiang Wu.

Jiang Wu walked over with a smile: "Ting Yan, don't you let Brother Jiang Wu sit in?"

Xue Tingyan could only get out of the way.

Zhaoer went back to the house to get some flour and went to the kitchen.

When the family was separated, the second room also shared a bag of white flour and fine grains. Zhao'er originally planned to make something tasty for Xue Tingyan, but Jiang Wu arrived just in time, so they could eat together.

Zhao'er is good at cooking, but she rarely does it. In the past, it was not her turn to do it. Later, all her thoughts were on where to find money, so she naturally had no time to do these things.

After making peace with each other, Zhao Er went to the vegetable garden behind.

It is the time when everything is recovering. Because of the cold weather in Yuqing Village, the ground has not completely thawed and cannot be plowed, so spring plowing is late. But the vegetables in the vegetable field have been planted a long time ago, and nothing else has grown much yet, but the green garlic sprouts are so tender and attractive.

Zhaoer pulled out a handful and went to the well to wash it off.

Ms. Zhou was cooking on another stove. She took a handful of dry firewood and lit it. She turned on the stove and washed the big pot and heated it up. Taking advantage of this gap, she cracked a few eggs, which were also divided among the families. Mr. Xue kept his word. When dividing the rations, he divided everything that could be eaten in the house, including pickles, pickles, eggs, bacon, etc.

Beat the eggs until they are foamy, so that the scrambled eggs will be fluffy and tender. Put oil in the pan, pour in the foaming egg liquid, but in the blink of an eye, it will swell.

Zhao'er stir-fried a few times with a shovel and pushed the eggs aside.

Because there was a lot of oil in the pot, there was still some oil at the bottom of the pot. She took out the tofu she bought from a tofu-making family in the village last night, cut it into small pieces and threw it into the pot.

The tofu was fried to a light yellow color in a short time. Zhao'er put some oil in the pot, poured in the chopped **** and red pepper and fried until fragrant. As a burst of white smoke rose up, the alluring aroma rushed towards her. She quickly stir-fried the eggs and tofu a few times with her hands and feet, added seasonings, and added some water before closing the lid.

The pot is cooking vigorously, and the aroma is getting stronger and stronger. Before serving, Zhao'er throws in the chopped garlic sprouts, and a large bowl of delicious and fragrant noodle toppings is ready.

Taking it out, adding water to the pot, and taking this opportunity to start rolling out the noodles.

Her hand speed was so fast that Zhou saw her hands flying up and down, and soon rows of noodles cut to the same width appeared on the chopping board.

"You girl are so quick with your hands and feet. Compared with you, the third aunt is old."

Zhaoer smiled and opened the lid of the pot. The rising smoke enveloped her face, but the sound was crisp and pleasant.

"Third aunt, please don't praise me. I can just talk about my quick hands, but my craftsmanship is not as good as yours."

"You are so humble, girl!"

At the same time, in the second room, Xue Tingyan and Jiang Wu were sitting face to face.
