A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

Chen Dafu went to the county town almost every day these days and was very familiar with the streets and alleys in the city. He drove the ox cart to the fixed parking place. After paying two cents for fodder, he handed the ox cart to the caretaker.

Everyone carries an empty backpack behind them. They can use it to load things when they go shopping later, without having to run back to get them and waste time.

"Mom, should we eat steamed buns or noodles and wontons today?" Sanshou asked as he walked.

Although his mother's cooking skills were very good, after finally entering the city, Chen Sanshou still wanted to eat the fresh food in the city.

"We won't eat steamed buns or noodles and wontons today. Let's go to a restaurant to order food."

“Restaurant!!!”

Four people exclaimed.

In their entire lives, they have never eaten in a restaurant.

The same goes for Chen Changsheng. She prides herself on her skills, but as a cook teacher in her previous life, she doesn't like to cook every day.

The restaurant that ranks first in Baishui County is the Liang Family's Ruyi Restaurant.

When Chen Changsheng and his entourage stood in front of Ruyi Restaurant, Sanshou and Sixi raised their heads and looked at the elegant two-story building in front of them.

Even though Sanshou had some delicious food, he couldn't help but tugged on her sleeves and whispered, "Mom, a meal in such a grand restaurant must cost a lot of money. How about we go to the roadside? Have some noodles or wontons.”

"Big buns are delicious too! How about we eat big buns?" Dafu and Erlu also advised them sensibly.

Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "It's good that you guys can think of saving, but our family still has enough money for a meal. It's rare that our whole family comes to the city today, so we go to a restaurant to have a meal."

Shopkeeper Xu saw the familiar faces of Chen Changsheng and the others and greeted them from behind the counter with a smile, "Mrs. Chen, why are you here in person today?"

"I went into town today to do some shopping. It's already noon in a flash, so I'll come to Shopkeeper Xu's restaurant for lunch."

The lobby on the first floor was already full of guests, and there were no empty tables.

Chen Changsheng asked with a smile, "Shopkeeper Xu, is there a private room on the second floor suitable for the five of us, mother and son?"

"Yes, yes, yes, madam, you arrived in time. There is still the last private room facing the street. If it were later, it would have been booked." Shopkeeper Xu led the way up the stairs.

"Why is business so good today?" Chen Changsheng asked Si Xi while holding hands.

"Madam, you don't know yet, but our young master has been admitted as a scholar. The results were released today, which made our master very happy. He ordered us to come down and tell him that the drinks in the restaurant are half price today."

"Ah?" Chen Changsheng was surprised.

In just a few months, Liang Shaoqin became a scholar? This is too fast.

How could she remember that in the TV series she had watched before, those ancient people had to study hard for several years before they could pass the exam? Some people even spent most of their lives and could not pass the exam.

But after thinking about it carefully, it is reasonable for Liang Shaoqin to pass the exam. He was born a merchant and his family was well-off. In addition to studying in a first-class academy, he also invited his master to teach in person.

Ordinary students from poor families don't have such conditions. Not to mention studying, I can't even pay for repairs.

While talking, shopkeeper Xu had brought several people to the private room and brought over the menu.

Chen Changsheng ordered braised pork, crispy duck, spicy rabbit meat, stir-fried green vegetables, stir-fried river shrimp and steamed eggs. He also ordered a pot of tea and two small plates of pastries.

Tea and cakes were served first.

The children's eyes were all staring at the exquisite pastries placed on the plate. Everyone couldn't help but swallowed, but no one moved their chopsticks first.

"Eat it." Chen Changsheng said with a smile.

She picked up a piece and gave it to Si Xi, "You three are boys, so Mom won't pick it up for you. You can do it yourself."

Dafu and others then stretched out their chopsticks, each took a small piece and put it into their mouths, tasting it carefully.

"Really delicious!"

The restaurant is indeed a restaurant, and the pastries they make are much more delicious than those bought from street stalls.

The children were eating cakes and looking down from the second floor, they saw all kinds of passers-by coming and going on the street, it was so lively.

Dafu suddenly saw a familiar figure and hurriedly said, "Mom, isn't that Mrs. Zhan from Bailu Bookstore?"

Chen Changsheng looked in the direction of his finger, and it turned out to be Old Master Zhan Jin.

Master Zhan was alone, carrying a baggage and not knowing where he was going.

Chen Changsheng asked several children to wait in the private room while he went downstairs to find Master Zhan. The two exchanged a few words on the street, and Master Zhan followed her into the restaurant.

Seeing Master Zhan, Chen Dafu stood up first and bowed his hands, "Master Zhan is polite."

"Dafu, your kid is here too."

Master Zhan said with a smile. When he saw the three children behind him, he suddenly realized that they should be Chen Changsheng's children.

Chen Changsheng invited Master Zhan to sit down and have lunch together.

She poured a cup of tea and asked, "I just saw you, Master Zhan, carrying a baggage and walking in a hurry. I wonder where you are going, Master Zhan?"

"That kid Shaoqin is very talented and knows everything. This time he was admitted as a scholar. I really don't have any other knowledge to teach him now, so I plan to return to my hometown to retire."

Chen Changsheng's face was filled with righteous indignation, "Could it be that after Mr. Liang was admitted as a scholar, he felt that Master Zhan was useless and wanted to drive Master Zhan away?"

It is said that businessmen value profits rather than love, but this is the first time I have seen people like the Liang family kicking people out right after the exam.

"No, no, no, madam, you misunderstood." Master Zhan shook his head and explained, "It wasn't the Liang family that drove me away, it was my old man who wanted to leave."

Because he had no new knowledge to teach Liang Shaoqin, he couldn't live in the Liang Mansion for nothing, let alone receive the Liang family's teaching fees for nothing.

On the contrary, Master Liang Shiqiu and Master Liang Shaoqin tried to persuade him for a long time, saying that their house did not lack a vacant room for Master Zhan, let alone money for Master Zhan, so that he could live there with peace of mind. However, Master Zhan could not save face and was determined. Going back to the countryside.

"Master Zhan, you are so young that it is a pity that you have returned to the countryside to retire so early." Chen Changsheng said calmly, "If Master Zhan wants to teach, I can recommend a place.

However, that place may not be as good as Bailu Academy, nor can it be as powerful as the Liang Mansion, but the students' desire to study is not the least bit worse. "

Master Zhan raised his eyes, "Where?"

"Chenjiacun, our village."

Except for Li Zheng and her four children, no one in Chenjia Village can read. Li Zheng wanted to find a literate teacher for the children in the village, and the uncles who worked in the village also wanted to send the children to school.

Isn’t Master Zhan in front of me the best candidate?
