Zhao Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him. After all, it was better than having a son and daughter-in-law run away like him.

It would be better if I could just leave them a granddaughter.

Chen Guangzong wanted to continue speaking when he heard the sound of horse hooves in the distance.

"Where is Zhao Jia Sui Kai?"

Wen Qingliu smiled faintly and looked at this nominal uncle.

"I never said that our eldest son didn't pass the exam."

Zhao Chen chuckled, and seeing Chen Guangzong's frustrated look, she raised her wrist and patted Wen Qingliu on the back.

"Kid, are you going to scare us to death?"

Wen Qingliu hugged Zhao Chen's arm like a spoiled child.

"Mom, please stop talking about me."

The boss looked at the bailiff in front of him and couldn't tell what he felt.

He walked forward and wanted to kneel down, but was stopped by the bailiff.

"No need to kneel."

"Zhao Jia Suikai won the third place in this county exam and will be a Tongsheng in the future."

"Come on, young man. I'm optimistic about you."

Zhao Sui Kai nodded heavily and bowed deeply to the yamen runner to express his gratitude.

After the bailiff left, Wen Qingliu closed the door.

Chen Guangzong was startled and sneered.

"Isn't he just a student? What is there to be proud of?"

In the yard, Wei held her son in her arms, her face filled with emotion.

"My son is awesome!"

Sui Kai's face blushed a little, but after a moment he looked at his parents confidently again.

"I will definitely work harder, and I will earn a title of consort for my mother in the future."

Wei found it a little funny. It was not so easy to become a noble lady.

Even when Wei was really granted the imperial edict later, she was still full of disbelief in her heart.

The whole family was in high spirits. When the news spread to the village, people came to the door with pork, eggs, brown sugar and other things.

Without exception, they all thought that if Sui Kai became successful in the future, he should not forget the people in their village.

Zhao Chen happily accepted everything as it was supposed to be confiscated.

Who knows what they are saying behind their backs.

Wen Qingliu works even harder now. Years ago, Qian Xi accepted him as a disciple.

You can also make a lot of money by doing some embroidery work with the two little girls.

Wen Qingliu now has much more things on hand.

Before the county examination, she had already made fermented tofu, which, together with instant noodles made at the same time, were both convenient foods.

By the time there is another provincial examination next autumn, Pingyun Town will have become the provincial capital of Pingyun County.

You don't need to spend too much time on the road.

The actual palace examination in Beijing will take another year, so on the surface it takes two years.

But in fact, Pingyun County is not very close to the capital city for only one year.

The journey will take more than half a year.

Although she has enough money on hand now, her sister-in-law and others are always reluctant to spend her money.

Wen Qingliu plans to hand over the fermented tofu business to her sister-in-law, as for herself.

I'd better satisfy my own selfish desires first and open a fried chicken shop.

If she really couldn't figure out how to make Coke, she would definitely serve Coke with her fried chicken at the restaurant.

Fried chicken with Coke, just thinking about it makes you happy.

The next day, Wen Qingliu rented a shop in town and customized the plaque.

The name of the store is Fried Chicken Shop.

Wen Qingliu priced a fried chicken at fifty cents.

It’s not cheap and is even a little expensive, but every time you open the store, the fragrance spreads far away.

It smells so good when you ask about it, let alone when you eat it.

The skin is fried crispy, and when you take a bite, the chicken wrapped in the crispy shell is tender and juicy.

If you sprinkle some salt on it and eat it together, it will have a different flavor.

Anyone who has money in this town has become a loyal fan of this delicious fried chicken shop.

Wen Qingliu also makes money. He can buy a chicken for fifteen cents.

Only the manual work was a little more difficult, but apart from anything else, there were too many people in their family.

It only takes about an hour to finish selling all the fried chicken for the day.

"mother."

Wen Qingliu had just returned from the shop when he was pestered by the koala-like Xiaoqi.

"What's wrong? Are you missing your mother?"

Xiao Qi nodded heavily.

"Mom, please teach me how to catch ghosts."

Wen Qingliu was stunned. How could this child say such shocking things?

"It's hard to catch ghosts. You don't even know how to draw talismans now. Do you want to scare the ghosts to death?"

Xiaoqi shook his head and said, I can draw it.

Wen Qingliu raised his eyebrows. Could it be that Xiaoqi had already practiced it secretly?

Xiao Qi got down from her arms, picked up a wooden stick and started drawing on the ground.

Wen Qingliu stared at that place for a long time, but couldn't figure out what kind of talisman it was.

Xiao Qi had a smug look on his face, and he looked at Wen Qingliu with his hands on his hips.

"Mom, my brother said that what I drew is called a ghost painting."

Seeing her expression that looked like she was begging for praise, Wen Qingliu couldn't help laughing.

Xiao Qi was stunned, crossed his arms and stomped his feet.

"Mom, you're making fun of me. Xiaoqi doesn't want to play with you anymore."

Wen Qingliu couldn't help laughing, he squatted down and picked up the child.

"Xiao Qi, it's my fault. I shouldn't have laughed at you."

Xiao Qi pouted and stubbornly refused to look at Wen Qingliu.

"If you want to draw talismans and learn how to catch ghosts, you must first learn to read. Study hard first, and I will teach you later, okay?"

Hearing this, Xiao Qi smiled again and raised his hand to hug Wen Qingliu's arm.

"Mom keeps her word."

Wen Qingliu nodded and said, "Mom, keep your word. Go play with your brother."

Xiao Qi slid off her legs, ran a few steps and then ran back.

"Mom, my brother said that what I drew was a ghost painting. What is a ghost painting?"

Wen Qingliu stammered for a long time, opening and closing his lips but still couldn't say anything.

"Ghostly talismans are like that. Even ghosts would not want to look at the talismans you draw if they say they are ugly."

Xiaoqi opened his mouth wide and ran towards his sixth brother like a cannonball.

Cui looked at the two of them playing and fighting, with a smile on her lips.

Everyone is right, she can't commit suicide, the children are not grown up yet.

How can I live without a mother?

What’s more, the three children were so frail, but they are all alive and well now.

She had even less reason to think about it, not even to set an example for her children.

She also has to live well.

"Fourth sister-in-law, can you help third sister-in-law find something to do?"

My eldest sister-in-law now sells pies and fermented bean curd every day, and my second sister-in-law has been cooking at home.

My second sister-in-law can also do embroidery, and she can make a lot of money from it.

She is the only one at home, just like a freeloader.

Wen Qingliu thought for a moment and realized that his third sister-in-law had already left the confinement period.

If you want to do something, she will naturally support you with all her strength.

It has been so long now, and the lotus pond she dug is almost done.

Although it is called a lotus pond, it is actually the land where she grows lotus roots.

"Third sister-in-law, let's go and see how the lotus roots are doing under the lotus pond one day."

"If it's ripe, you can make lotus root starch in the future."

Back when they were in Nanlian County, Cui had helped make lotus root powder.

This business was given to her, so she was not unfamiliar with it.

And if you can control the production well, it will not be a problem to make a fortune from this.

To make lotus root powder, you first need a large amount of lotus roots, and maybe it is possible to drive the development of the village.

Wen Qingliu is now planning to cooperate with a chicken farm to provide chickens specifically for her delicious fried chicken shop.

Cui nodded and said, "Okay."

The next day, she went down to the pond and found that the lotus roots were fully ripe and enough to make lotus root powder.

Seeing that Cui had already started working, Qiu also felt a little itchy.

Zhao Zhiwu supported her very much and let her do whatever she wanted.

But when he really thought about it, Qiu didn't know what he could do.

At the beginning, she was a lady of a noble family, proficient in everything from music, chess, calligraphy to painting.

But at least she knows everything.

She was just thinking when Wen Qingliu came over.

“Second sister-in-law, Wen Yi lectures like this all day long, and it’s not a big deal that her throat can’t rest from morning to night.”

"I heard from Uncle Qiu that you are good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting. Can you go to the academy and teach the girls these things?"

Wen Qingliu sighed, this world is still too unfair to women.

As long as a man has received education, he can marry a good wife even if he has no official title.

But there are always some men who clearly don’t have much ability, but still want their wives to know everything.

She was also required to learn to read and write so that she could teach the children.

He also required her to be proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting so that she could make him proud when she went out.

However, Wen Qingliu asked his second sister-in-law to teach the children music, chess, calligraphy and painting not for the purpose of helping them get married better.

It's to make them better versions of themselves.

Women never need to rely on any man to live.
