Peasant's Adorable Wife

The two of them found a bun house and ate some simple food to fill their stomachs.

After asking about the location of the County School, the two of them decided to go see Bai Yanqing.

Right now, it was time for lunch break in the County School. There was a kitchen for the students and their teachers to eat.

There were some people in the county who had good conditions. Those who were close to home would either bring their children home to eat or have their families bring them over.

Therefore, County School entrance was quite lively at the moment.

Bai Xiao asked the gatekeeper to inform him that Bai Yanqing would be coming out of the school soon.

"Elder sister, brother-in-law." "Why are you guys here?"

When he first heard that someone was looking for him, he guessed that it might be his sister and brother-in-law.

Looking at Bai Yanqing, Bai Xiao's gaze landed on his body for a while. Although his clothes had been washed white, there were still some places where they seemed to have been patched up.

"I'll go to the county with your brother-in-law to handle some matters. After I'm done, I'll come visit you."

"What's so good about me? But sister and brother-in-law, how are you guys? "

After returning home, he came to the county town, but did not know anything about his family.

Thinking about how shameless the Bai Family people were, he was truly afraid that his sister would suffer a loss at the hands of the Bai Family people.

"Relax, your elder sister, I'm not that little girl who was casually bullied by them in the past. I can't deal with her myself, so how about your brother-in-law?"

From the moment he returned to the door, he could tell that Yang Family treated big sister like a family. They treated her extremely well, so he was relieved.

"Yanqing, who are these two?"

An old man wearing a scholar's robe came over with a book in his hand.

Bai Yanqing saw this person and bowed. "Hello, Teacher Du. These two are my older sister and brother-in-law. They came to the county to do some work today, and also came to visit your students."

"Elder sister, brother-in-law, this is Yanqing's teacher. In the academy, mister has taken care of me."

Teacher Du looked at Bai Xiao and Yang Dingchu, bowing to Teacher Du.

"Good day, Teacher Du. Thank you for taking care of Yanqing."

After she finished speaking, Bai Xiao bowed to Teacher Du.

There were many etiquette methods for scholars. Bai Xiao was quiet and generous, neither humble nor haughty. Teacher Du looked very satisfied.

"No wonder Yanqing is so respectful. Seeing Madam like this, it must be the elders' guidance."

When they mentioned the elders in the family, the siblings both shut their mouths. The reason the two of them could be different from those people in Bai Family was entirely because they had an upbringing mother.

"Yanqing is still young, I've troubled you too much."

"No no, Yanqing is very sensible, he would help the academy copy their books everyday, but he would not compete with others, and he would not feel inferior because of his family's poor conditions."

"This old man likes children like him. To be able to endure hardships and endure hardships, to be wealthy, to be unbeatable, to be unyielding, this is the style of a scholar."

"How can a student be as good as Teacher says?" Bai Yanqing laughed.

Teacher Du held Bai Yanqing in high regard and sincerely praised him from the bottom of his heart.

"Oh right, there's a test in the academy after the new year. I want to let Yanqing take the test, what do you two think?"

Bai Xiao looked at Bai Yanqing, "Yanqing, what do you think?"

"We'll listen to sister and brother-in-law." He was now twelve years old, and he hadn't thought about it much.

Bai Xiao did not understand anything about the academy, and looked at Yang Dingchu.

Yang Dingchu thought for a while, then said: "Yanqing is only twelve years old, and has only risen to the level of student this year. I think we can talk about that in a year or two, what do you think, Sir?"

It was a pity for Teacher Du that with Bai Yanqing's knowledge and knowledge, even if he could not pass the examination, he could at least experience it for a while.

"Yanqing, it's rare for your sister and brother-in-law to come here. Since you know how to attend the afternoon class, why don't you accompany them in strolling around the city?"

"Yes, Teacher."

After bidding farewell to the teacher, the three of them began strolling around the city.

Hearing that Bai Xiao was planning to build a house, Bai Yanqing asked in astonishment, "Sis, do you have that much money?"

"Don't worry about that, I wouldn't dare to buy land to build a house without money. Right, will your Winter Solstice have a break? "

"One day, I was planning to go back and have fun with my sister. But now that my sister has come, I'm not going back."

His elder sister was already married. Although he was already in the same village, he couldn't possibly go to his brother-in-law's house for the holiday, right?

Looking at Bai Family's face, he felt disgusted, and might as well not go. Reading more in the academy would earn him some money.

Bai Xiao knew what Bai Yanqing was thinking and did not advise him.

On the other hand, Yang Dingchu said a few words to him, telling him not to mind, and he could go to the Yang Family.

But Bai Yanqing had his own thoughts, no matter what Yang Dingchu said, he didn't go.

Although he was only twelve years old, everyone said that the children of poor families took charge early. His mind was more mature than the average child, so he knew what to do and what not to do.

Bai Xiao bought two sets of winter clothes for Bai Yanqing, and a set of brush, ink, and paper for him.

"Sis, I have all of these. You don't have to waste that money."

"Your sister is rich now, there's no need to save for me."

Yang Dingchu smiled from the side: "Your sister is currently in possession of a huge sum of money."

Bai Xiao rolled her eyes at him.

"Today, your sister sold her one ginseng and one Heaven's Anchor for six hundred silver taels."

"So many?" Bai Yanqing opened his eyes wide in disbelief.

"So, if you want to buy anything, just tell your sister and let her buy it for you."

Bai Xiao took out ten silver and gave it to Bai Yanqing.

"Buy whatever you want."

Bai Yanqing did not reject her. He had always wanted to buy some books, but he felt embarrassed and was unable to do so.

After taking the money, they immediately went to the bookstore. Bai Xiao and Yang Dingchu followed along.

Entering the bookstore, Bai Xiao casually looked at it. Yang Dingchu walked over to Bai Yanqing's side and looked at his book selection.

Many of the books he chose were of the same type as Shi Zhi.

"Yanqing, have you thought about what you want to do in the future?"

Bai Yanqing stopped and looked at Yang Dingchu, then said: "I want to be an official, bringing benefits to the citizens, and letting big sister live a good life."

"I will let your sister live a good life, so you don't have to worry about it. "Do you want to become a civil or military official?"

"I want the martial arts and the martial arts. Father died fighting in the battlefield to protect our family and protect our country. I also want to be like him. "However, seeing that many people don't even have enough to eat, and if it's not natural disasters, then it's human disasters, and I want to become a civil servant."

"Do you know kung fu?"

Yang Dingchu never thought that Bai Yanqing would actually have such a grand dream.

I know a bit about it. When I was young, Dad taught me a bit. Although Dad was gone for years, I never left him behind.

Yang Dingchu rubbed Bai Yanqing's head, "Don't you feel bitter?"

"It's not hard."

The reason why he insisted on learning martial arts was not only to fight on the battlefield and kill the enemy, but also to protect his sister.

After Yang Dingchu found out about Bai Yanqing's ideals, he recommended two books on governance.

After selecting the books, he paid. It was already late, so he sent Bai Yanqing to the County School.

Bai Xiao gave Bai Yanqing another ten taels of silver, but this time, Bai Yanqing was unwilling to take it no matter what.

"I didn't even use all the silver I just gave you. No need to give me any more silver."

Yang Dingchu said: "Take it, we don't know when we will be able to come to the County City, if there's anything you need, you can buy it yourself, it's good to read more."

Recalling how the other party had no money to buy the books and borrow them from his schoolmates, Bai Yanqing accepted the gift unwillingly.

"Big sister, brother-in-law, I'll be going in first. You guys go back a bit slower."

"Alright, hurry up and go in. If you don't have enough money, tell me. Don't bother copying the books anymore."

"Got it."
