Surprise! The little koi from the farm, her husband who died long ago is alive!

"Grandma, you're not in good health, so you can't shout so loudly." Jiang Shuyue said softly, as if she really cared about the old lady.

"I'm not going to die yet, Jiang Shuyue. If you don't help my mother's family today, then when your cousin is in high school and your cousin is successful, you won't be able to get involved."

high school?

Jiang Shuyue sneered in his heart. The Jiang family was still dreaming here.

Jiang Yinqiao was the same. She knew her elder brother would not pass the imperial examination, but she did not remind him in advance, fearing that her path to becoming the prime minister's wife would be blocked.

She doesn't even care about her own brother's future, so how can she help me?

How could helping yourself really change your marriage?

No one believes these words.

"Then I wish my cousin good luck in high school." Jiang Shuyue smiled, "Grandma, take a good rest. I will come to see you tomorrow."

"Get out of here!" Old Mrs. Jiang was almost mad at her.

On the way back, Jiang Shuyue happened to meet Jiang Jinlai.

"Stop!" Jiang Jinlai called out to Jiang Shuyue in a cold voice. He was not happy that Jiang Shuyue didn't even say hello when he saw him. However, Jiang Shuyue's eyes were full of fear when he saw him in the past, but it was different now.

"The results will be announced tomorrow, and I'm going to invite a few classmates to my house to celebrate. You come back and cook."

Jiang Shuyue wanted to refuse, but after a moment's glance, she nodded obediently, "Okay, but since Big Brother is inviting friends, they are all distinguished guests, so he must cook some hard dishes. I wonder if my cooking skills are up to par with them?"

"Just make do with it!" Jiang Jinlai said contemptuously.

In his eyes, Jiang Shuyue's cooking skills were just average. After all, she was a girl who had never even been to a restaurant. But it had to be her. His mother was only good at handling household matters and was really not good at cooking.

Jiang Shuyue sneered in her heart. She had learned from the imperial chef in the palace, and even the Empress Dowager praised her cooking skills.

Could it be that Jiang Jinlai has eaten more delicious things than the Empress Dowager?

"Then big brother will buy some meat, fish, chicken, etc...."

Jiang Jinlai frowned, "Want to buy these?"

Jiang Shuyue nodded, "Yes, brother's friend, he will be a scholar or a juren in the future. Besides, brother, you will be a scholar soon, how can you be stingy? You should be more generous."

Jiang Jinlai nodded, "Not bad."

"Oh, right, meat and vegetables are the freshest in the morning. I'm afraid my eldest brother won't be able to make it in time after the results are announced, so let uncle prepare them early."

"Aren't you going to buy it?" Jiang Jinlai frowned.

Jiang Shuyue almost laughed. Did he still expect her to buy it?

It seems like he is treating us and wants me to pay and work for him?

What a beautiful thought.

"Brother, I need to cook. If I rush back and forth, I'm afraid I won't be able to make it in time..."

"Okay, okay!" Jiang Jinlai was very concerned about his reputation and was afraid of losing face in front of that group of bad friends.

After all, tomorrow is a happy day, and Jiang Shuyue is so well-behaved, so he doesn't care.

"Oh, I don't know if my sister will come back tomorrow. She should know what day tomorrow is. Come to think of it, she hasn't come back for a few days! This year my eldest brother is in high school, and next time it will be my cousin's husband. That's great."

If she hadn't said it, Jiang Jinlai wouldn't have noticed that his sister hadn't come back for a few days.

However, he didn't think much about it. Why would a married girl always go back to her parents' home?

But soon, he understood why Jiang Yinqiao didn't come back in the past few days.

After Jiang Jinlai returned home, he acted like a scholar and instructed his father to go to the town early the next morning to buy good wine and meat. He must not lose face. He also told his father that Jiang Shuyue would come to cook for the guests tomorrow.

Old Madam Jiang frowned, "Did the damn girl agree?"

"Yes, she agreed as soon as I asked her. She was quite happy to do so."

"That's not right. It's very difficult for me to ask her to do anything."

Jiang Jinlai smiled and said, "How can it be the same? I will be a scholar soon. She will need me a lot in the future. She must try to curry favor with me."

Old Mrs. Jiang thought about it and it made sense, but she felt very uncomfortable. The little girl was just looking down on others and not taking her, her grandmother, seriously.

The next morning, Jiang Xiwang and Jiang Jinlai set out for the town together, and Jiang Jinlai had to hire a carriage from the town to go to the county to check the list.

Jiang Xiwang was also happy and told everyone he met that he was buying it for the scholar's son.

But in the end, when Jiang Jin came back, his face was ashen.

"Oh, my scholar son is back, but why are you alone here? Where are your friends?" Jiang Sun had been waiting at the door.

"Dad, set off the firecrackers!"

"Here it comes!" Jiang Jinlai responded, and then started lighting firecrackers.

There was quite a lot of crackling noise, even more grand than when Jiang Shuyue got married.

Jiang Shuyue sat at home, holding the little baby in her arms, gently touching the fur under its neck, which was soft and felt very nice.

"Did your eldest brother pass the imperial examination and become a scholar?" asked Old Lady Xiao.

"Scholar? Him? Impossible." Jiang Shuyue said coldly.

Jiang family.

Jiang Sun's smile seemed to be frozen for a moment. She grabbed her son's arm and said, "What? Say it again? No? How could it be no?"

"Yes, didn't Mr. Lu promise to protect you?"

"You ask me, who should I ask? I didn't win, and my name is not on the list."

Jiang Xiwang was stunned, "Then I bought the vegetables for nothing?"

He was so busy feeling sorry for the expensive food he bought that he didn't notice that the firecracker in his hand had just been lit halfway and exploded before he could let go.

He wailed loudly, but the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law didn't care.

"Really didn't win? Jin Lai, this is not a joke." Jiang Sun asked for confirmation again.

Jiang Jinlai was already upset enough. He was not in a good mood to begin with, and after being asked again and again, he shouted impatiently, "No, no, it just didn't happen."

"How is this possible? Mr. Lu promised, and Yinqiao has already married him to bring good luck."

Suddenly, he remembered Jiang Shuyue's words.

He looked at Jiang Sun fiercely, "Has Jiang Yinqiao not come back in the past few days?"

Jiang Sun was frightened by her son's ferocious appearance, "Ah..."

"Stinky girl, she must have known about it a long time ago. She actually wore the same pants as the Lu family. A daughter who is married off is like water spilled..."

"No, what does this have to do with Yin Qiao?"

"Why is it not related?" Jiang Jinlai suddenly understood, "That little girl is a traitor. She has long said that Lu Mingzhan wants to be admitted to high school. I think she stole my place."

Jiang Sun was dumbfounded, "This... is impossible?"

"Why not? Mr. Lu originally promised to give it to me. Otherwise, how could he live without me?"

Jiang Jinlai became angrier and angrier, "I'm going to the Lu family to ask for an explanation."

"Ouch, my hand..."

However, Old Lady Jiang and Mrs. Jiang Sun didn't take it seriously at all and just followed Jiang Jinlai.

Jiang Xiwang looked at his hand that was bleeding profusely and collapsed to the ground in fear. The two fingers were right in front of him. He hurried to connect them back, but he couldn't do it at all.
