The two had enough rest, and Wang Shijing continued to pick tea. Shao Yunan also put the bag of sweet-scented osmanthus in Wang Shijing's back basket to prevent the tea from smelling. Wang Shijing's movements became more and more proficient. After about an hour, he had finished picking the remaining half of the ancient trees. This trip up the mountain is very rewarding. The two did not delay, and they went down the mountain when they were ready.

It was quicker to go back, and Shao Yunan didn't even look around. Wang Shijing led him down the mountain smoothly. The two went home to put things away first, and then went to pick up the child. Unexpectedly, as soon as the two walked into the village and saw a woman, the man opened his mouth and said gloatingly: "Ishijing, your mother has been looking for you for a day, you should go home soon."

Shao Yunan's good mood dissipated immediately, Wang Shijing's face turned gloomy, and he only said "I know", and took Shao Yunan to continue to drive home. He never let go of Shao Yunan's wrist, and Shao Yunan did not break free.

"It must be about the stone." Shao Yunan snorted coldly.

"I'll take you home first, and then pick up Brother Qing and Nizi." As soon as Wang Shijing's words fell, someone called him again: "Ishijing!"

When the two looked over, it was Aunt Li, and Aunt Li looked anxious. The other party trotted over all the way, and hurriedly said: "Ishijing, your mother asked you for a stone. She went to your house in the morning. You two were not there. As soon as she heard that Brother Qing and Nizi were at Zhou Cai's house, she brought her with him. Tian Yan and his family made a big fuss in the past, saying that you hid the money before the family split and you have to hand it over, and also said that the patriarch should open the ancestral hall, saying that you were unfilial and had to obey the clan rules. The two children were terrified. , Aunt Zhou and I hurriedly sent the two babies to Lizheng, you should hurry over there."

Shao Yunan gritted his teeth: "Damn, the tiger doesn't show his power and treats me as a sick cat. I want to see how she behaves in the clan!"

Seeing a donkey grazing in the wasteland not far away, Shao Yunan pulled out the hand held by Wang Shijing, unloaded the basket on his back and put it on the ground, and said angrily, "Brother Ishijing, take your things home. , I won't stink Wang Songzhi's reputation today, and I'm not **** Shao!"

Before Wang Shijing and Fourth Aunt Li could react, Shao Yunan rushed to the donkey. While the owner was stunned, he climbed on the donkey and slapped the donkey's butt. The donkey barked, and under the command of Shao Yunan, it threw its hooves and ran.

"Hey! That's my donkey!" the owner of the donkey shouted and rushed up.

Shao Yunan can ride a horse, so riding a donkey is not a problem, but the donkey has no saddle, so he rides a little hard. Shao Yunxin was furious in his heart. He could see that when dealing with the shameless people of the Wang family, he had to let them taste the cruelty. The reason why the Wang family is so arrogant is that there is a good scholar in his family. No matter what era, the reputation of a scholar is the most important thing. If the Wang family can do such shameless things, he has to see if the scholar in the Wang family is also so shameless!

"Yun'an! Yun'an!" Fourth Aunt Li became anxious and pushed Wang Shijing hard, "Go after him!"

Wang Shijing's face was tense, and he said to Aunt Li: "Aunt Si, I will put the things in your house first, and you will lend me the ox cart. I would like to trouble you to tell him that Yunan is looking for Songzhi. "

"Hey, hurry up, I'll tell you from Lizheng!" Aunt Li scolded Mrs. Wang's family to death in her heart. She helped Wang Shijing bring two baskets full of things to her home. When Wang Xing and Sun Erjiang heard that Shao Yunan had run to find Wang Songzhi, they immediately said they wanted to go with Wang Shijing.

Wang Shijing did not refuse, and drove the bullock cart to chase in the direction of the county seat. Shao Yunan's reaction also startled him. But right next to it, another complex emotion rose up in his heart. This was originally something he should solve, but Shao Yunan's actions made him feel once again that they were a family.

At Lizheng's house, Mrs. Wang, Wang Tianyan, and Wang Guozhao's younger brother were all waiting angrily. After Aunt Wang and Aunt Zhou sent their two children over, these three stayed at Lizheng's house. Lizheng's mother-in-law, Zhao Liushi, was half-dead with anger. She had never seen such a shameless family. It was totally unreasonable that such a family could have a child.

The patriarch Wang Wenhe was also called by Mrs. Wang crying. Wang Wenhe and Lizheng Zhaozheng both looked bad. It is here that he has to hinder Wang Zhisong's identity as a Tongshenglang, while Wang Wenhe is out of consideration for the whole family. After Wang Songzhi was admitted to Tong Shenglang, the fate of the entire Wang clan was linked to him. In the future, the Wang clan would use the power of the whole clan to conduct Wang Zhisong's scientific examination. No matter how annoyed Mrs. Wang is, Wang Wenhe has to consider the future of the entire Wang family, so Wang Wenhe is very embarrassed about this matter.

The two children were taken to the back room by Zhao Liu. Lizheng's eldest son and eldest daughter-in-law were both sitting in the main room. Lizheng's eldest grandson, who had just returned from the private school, accompanied his grandmother, Wang Qing and Wang Ni in the back room. Lizheng's eldest son Zhao Yuande married a male wife, a brother of the same clan, called Zhao He. Usually, there is no intermarriage between people of the same clan. Zhao He's parents did not have children. He was a son adopted from his mother's family. concluded.

The couple has only one son named Zhao Congbo, who is ten years old this year and is studying in a private school in the county. Although Li Zheng and his wife were not satisfied that their daughter-in-law was a man and had only one grandson, they loved the eldest grandson very much and had great expectations for him.

Fourth Uncle Wang and Fourth Aunt Wang ran in from outside, and as soon as they entered the house, Fourth Uncle Wang didn't even look at the patriarch and Mrs. Wang, and said to Lizheng, "Lizheng, Shijing and Yunan are back, and Yunan is going to the county. Learn to find pine branches."

As soon as Uncle Wang's words fell, Li Zheng and Wang Wenhe were stunned first, and Mrs. Wang was also a little stunned for a while. Wang Tianyan asked stupidly, "Why did he go to Pine Branch?"

Wang Guozhao's brother raised his voice and shouted: "It's useless for him to go to Pine Branch!"

"Confused!" Wang Wenhe suddenly shouted, and Wang Guozhao fell off the stool in fright. Li Zheng's face trembled, and Fourth Aunt Wang said sarcastically, "Yun An said he was going to ask Songzhi, what should be done about this matter." She would not say that Shao Yunan wanted to smear Wang Zhisong's reputation.

Wang Wenhe stood up and shouted, "Where's Ishii! Why don't you stop him!"

Aunt Wang said, "Ishijing didn't stop him. Yunan grabbed Ergouzi's donkey and ran to the county. Ishijing borrowed my family's ox cart, Xingzi and Erjiang to chase."

Wang Wenhe pointed to Fourth Aunt Wang, turned and pointed at Mrs. Wang, who had not yet figured out the severity of the problem: "You are making trouble for you! If Songzhi's reputation is ruined today, I see how you will explain it to Songzhi!" Said After that, Wang Wenhe strode away, and he wanted to quickly arrange someone to stop Shao Yunan.

Mrs. Wang still didn't react: "Why did this ruin Songzhi's reputation?"

Li Zheng said impatiently: "Why don't you let Tian Yan go after him?! Ishii has already split up. Not to mention he sold a piece of his own stone, even if he really has a private house, you can't make trouble now! The deed says I have to make it clear that Ishii will have nothing to do with the main family in the future! What is the county school? Yun An is a powerful person. If he wants to make trouble at the county school, what will the master and classmates think of Songzhi? If Songzhi's reputation is ruined, He can't even take the exam for talent!"

"What?!" The old lady Wang was stunned for a moment, and then she screamed: "I think he dares!"

"See if he dares!" Li Zheng wished he couldn't slap the dead old woman. It's all Tong Sheng Lang from this village, and Li Zheng doesn't care about Mrs. Wang's side, so he quickly asks his eldest son Zhao Yuande to chase him.

Li Zheng's move made the fearless old lady Wang panic: "He, does he really dare to go to the county school to ruin Songzhi's reputation?"

"If you don't believe me, keep making trouble!" Li Zheng ignored Mrs. Wang and yelled at Wang Tianyan, who was still confused: "You and Yuan De, hurry up and chase people! If this matter doesn't fix the future of Songzhi Ruined!" Wang Tianyan looked at Li Zheng and his mother absentmindedly, and ran out in a panic.

The patriarch said so, and Li Zheng also said the same, and Mrs. Wang was finally afraid. She slumped on the ground with her legs limp, and then howled: "This mortal star! How could my Wang family marry such a mortal star!"

Li Zheng scolded: "What's the use of crying now! If you didn't make a fuss, there would be no such thing! Ishii is also your son, or the eldest son! He didn't take a grain of rice away from the family, so you can return it for some money. I want to ask him! Are you such a mother! After all, you are the one who caused the trouble!"

Mrs. Wang said: "He didn't take a grain of rice from me? He hid so many private houses without saying a word, and gave them all to that mourning star! He is a brother, and the family doesn't spend any money, and Songzhi also spends money on reading. How much does he not know?! He is not filial and he doesn't allow me to ask for it?!"

Li Zheng pointed at the unrepentant old lady Wang, so angry that she was speechless. When Zhao Liu came out of the room, he was also very angry. What's the point of crying in his house!

"Tian Yan's family, why don't you help your mother-in-law to send her back quickly! Let's talk about what happened when Tian Yan and the others come back. They have been making trouble for a day, and our family hasn't eaten yet! My grandson is still hungry. Where's the belly!"

Brother Wang Guozhao muttered: "It's not that the eldest brother is not authentic, how can this make trouble."

"Go back first!" Li Zheng was too lazy to waste his words with this unreasonable pair of mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, waving his hands to chase people away. The patriarch left, Wang Tianyan also left, and Wang Guozhao did not dare to splash around in Lizheng's house to help Mrs. Wang.

"Lizheng, you have to decide for us! Our Wang family can't have such a daughter-in-law!" Mrs. Wang cried and wiped away her tears, still not understanding the situation.

Li Zheng waved his hand again, chased people away, and asked his young daughter-in-law to send them out. Lizheng's young daughter-in-law and son half pushed and half pushed and sent out the Wang family's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law.

After they went out, Zhao Liu scolded: "She thought it was the Song family, and she wanted to scold and beat him. Then Shao Yunan said that she would break up with the Shao family. If she can let Ishii divorce Shao Yunan, she is true. Ability! I'll see if she can do it!"

Li Zheng's wife disliked Mrs. Wang's family very much, even disgusted. She and Lizheng's two sons, Zhao Yuande and Zhao Yuanqing, both attended private schools, but none of them passed the Tongsheng exam. After Wang Zhisong was praised by the master of the private school, Mrs. Wang did not run on Zhao Liu's family secretly or secretly, showing off her son's intelligence everywhere, and he would definitely become the champion in the future. Later, Zhao Yuande married Zhao He, and Mrs. Wang secretly joked that Zhao Yuande was not good at reading. As the eldest son, she also married a male wife. Mrs. Wang was very disdainful of male wives.

This time, Wang Zhisong passed the Tongsheng test, and Mrs. Wang even boasted that in the future, the village will still have to rely on their family Songzhi. The two sons of Lizheng's family are hopeless. His father is as hopeless. As a mother and a grandmother, how could Zhao Liu's endure such a run on her son and grandson? Besides, Mrs. Wang herself is not a good person, and she doesn't know how to be a person. Every time Zhao Liu sees Mrs. Wang, she will It's like seeing a fly, and the diaphragm is very responsive.

Li Zheng let his wife scolded a few words to relieve his anger, and let her cook. After that, he asked the fourth aunt Wang who had been silent: "Is the Shijing family really going to the county school to find Songzhi?"

"Really, I can't lie to you either." Aunt Wang said, "As soon as Yun An heard that Mrs. Wang came to ask for stones and money, she threw the basket and didn't go home. She grabbed Ergouzi's donkey and went to the county seat. I went and said I was looking for Songzhi Jury."

Li Zheng took a deep breath, sat down, and patted the table hard: "Every one of these is a peace of mind!"

Aunt Wang snorted: "It was originally the Dali family who didn't care. It's all separated, and they still worry about what money they sell. It seems that Ishii is not his son. They forced the Song family away, and they still want to force it away. Is it Yun An? Ishijing went out of the house, no land and no house. They will take this money. They don’t care if they say that it is going to break the sky. Although I am also a member of the Wang clan, I also know that people need face and trees need bark. In the case of the Ishii family, you can't take sides with the Dali family."

Fourth Uncle Wang also said, "This time, the strong family has done a great job. The deed of separation is written clearly and clearly, and the two sides have nothing to do with each other from now on. It can't be written clearly in black and white, so I don't recognize it when I look back. After that, who will believe in the deeds? Songzhi is a scholar, can't he understand this principle?"

"Hey—" Li Zheng sighed and frowned. He had something to take care of, but he couldn't help but question: "This Ishii family really dares to go to the county school?"

Zhao Liushi said angrily, "You should look for it!"

Li Zheng said angrily: "Don't talk too much, you woman, go and cook!"

Zhao Liu Shi went out angrily. With outsiders around, it's not easy for her to quarrel with the boss. Even if Wang Zhisong was admitted to the top spot, what benefit would it be to their Zhao family. When this happened, Mrs. Wang moved out of Wang Wenhe, obviously to put pressure on her family. How could Zhao Liushi also be Lizheng's mother-in-law, and why would she want others to push her man down from time to time.

The county school is an unattainable place for the Zhuang households, whose status is comparable to that of the yamen, and it is absolutely not dare to touch it at will. Even Li Zheng didn't believe that Shao Yunan would be so bold to go to the county school to find Wang Zhisong. In fact, everyone present was muttering in their hearts, including Fourth Aunt Wang and Fourth Uncle Wang, even Wang Wenhe, who had left earlier, didn't believe it. The reason why he sent someone to chase was just to make a statement, to find a step for Shao Yun to settle down, and then take the opportunity to scare old lady Wang so that she could live in peace. Everyone has the thoughts of everyone, how can they think that Shao Yunan really dares to enter the county school. For a modern person, there is no school that cannot be entered, even if it is equivalent to the Gongyuan of a university or the Imperial College of the Capital, he dares to enter.

Lizheng's second son, Zhao Yuanqing, said on the side, "If you dare, you have to wait until you get someone back. Dad on the Songzhi side should also let the patriarch Wang talk about it, and he can't always let Aunt Wang make trouble." Zhu, it is taboo for others to call her Wang Zhu's. After a long time, people in the village will not call her by her surname.

Li Zheng sighed again, if Wang Wenhe could manage Wang Dali's family, he would have already managed it. Wang Wenhe's selfishness is different from his. After all, he is not a member of the Wang clan. Wang Zhisong's future fame should not be much. What he brings to Xiushui Village is fame, but the prosperity and wealth are only related to the Wang clan. But as Lizheng, he must face up to Wang Zhisong's future fame.
