After the evil daughter-in-law was crossed, the disabled villain was redeemed

Yuan Xi nodded, her voice choked with sobs.

"I won't fight with them anymore..."

Tears welled up in Yuan Ye's eyes.

"Brother, we know we were wrong. We won't cause trouble to sister-in-law anymore..."

"Well, go and apologize to your sister-in-law."

The two little ones nodded and jumped off the bed.

But see...

Nanzhi, who had just gone out with a pile of dirty clothes, came back empty-handed.

The two kids were surprised.

"Sister-in-law, you finished washing so quickly?"

Nanzhi smiled and said perfunctorily:

"Someone help us wash! Let's go eat..."

The water was so cold in winter that she was too lazy to wash herself.

Of course we should make full use of the resources we have!

At the same time, Nineteen was holding a pile of clothes and looking at Seventeen in confusion.

Seventeen held the sword and ignored him.

"Why are you looking at me? I have to protect my master!"

Nineteen grievances.

"How about I take over for a while?"

Seventeen side glances, with good reason.

"Have you spent as much time with the Master as I have? Do you understand the Master's preferences and habits better than I do? You..."

"Okay! I'll go!"

The nineteen-year-old mute swallowed coptis root and jumped off the treetop.

As it was getting dark, I carried the wooden basin to the river to wash clothes.

When Nanzhi got up the next day, all the clothes were already hung in the yard.

She smoothed the wrinkles of her clothes with satisfaction and exclaimed to the outside of the courtyard:

“Good laundry!”

Nineteen gave a bitter smile and silently returned the greeting.

Nanzhi returned to the house, prepared breakfast with Baoyun, and just sent the two little ones onto the ox cart...

Then I heard a team with music and drums heading straight for the old courtyard.

All the families passing by along the way followed.

Even Zheng Youwen brought the two little ones back with him.

Nanzhi was still a little confused, but after being reminded by Wang Xiaoe who also came out to watch the fun, she finally realized -

"His aunt! Have you forgotten... the results of the provincial examination will be announced today! Did the Yuan Xiucai pass?"

"That must be the winner! His aunt, hurry up and tell Yuan Xiucai the good news!"

Lin Erhu and Wang Xiao'e were even more excited than she was, and rushed into her yard in a hurry.

"Hurry up, his aunt! Please invite Scholar Yuan out..."

"What scholar? It should be called Juren! Yuan Juren!"

Nanzhi blinked her eyes and turned around like a puppet.

When the Third Young Master heard the noise, he shrank back and hid behind Yuan Mo.

Nanzhi saw that he got on the bed without even taking off his shoes!

He raised his hand as if to hit him.

"Come down quickly, you really don't care about your guards at all!"

Yuan Mo smiled gently and also heard the sound of gongs and drums outside the yard.

"What's the noise outside?"

Nanzhi pulled the third young master off the bed.

While helping Yuan Mo tie his cloak, he said:

"I don't know either. I've been busy with San'er's affairs these days and forgot to check the results of the provincial examination today..."

she asked tentatively.

"Is it possible... that you were the one who got hit?"

Yuan Mo pretended to be ignorant and spoke vaguely.

"Maybe...right?"

There was a confident smile on his face.

"What do you mean by maybe..."

Nanzhi helped him get out of bed and walked slowly.

The third young master followed suit and supported him on the other side.

As soon as I walked out of the room, I heard the team had arrived at the door.

Chen Shiyi held up his walking stick, so excited that he couldn't utter a word.

The one who was the first to beat the gong saw that Chen Shiyi was having difficulty speaking.

With a "bang", the drums and gongs were struck.

Chen Shiyi was shocked and fell down.

The team turned a blind eye and congratulated in unison:

"Congratulations to Mr. Yuan for passing the exam! He topped the list——"

The whole village was in an uproar, with everyone talking at once, even drowning out the sound of the gongs and drums.

"Oh my! Chenjiaao has produced a champion... Eh? What does a champion mean?"

"Tsk! You don't understand anything! Jieyuan! The first among all the juren!"

“Mr. Juren!! Our village has a Mr. Juren!? Oh my God…”

Lin Erhu in the yard didn't even care about his pregnant wife and turned around and ran towards Yuan Mo.

Dancing with excitement.

"Brother Dalang... Mr. Juren! Mr. Jieyuan... You passed the exam, you are amazing!"

Even the sound of his voice was choked.

The two little ones also squeezed into the yard from the gong and drum team.

She threw herself into Yuan Mo's arms.

"Brother! Brother, you have passed the imperial examination!"

"Brother is going to be an official, right?"

Nanzhi was still confused, so she just grabbed the two kids and tried to persuade them.

"Don't touch your brother, his wounds haven't healed yet."

Yuan Mo ignored everyone's excitement and just looked at Nanzhi tenderly, his eyes trembling slightly.

"Zhizhi...are you happy?"

This is the most important thing to him.

"I?"

Nanzhi looked at the cheering crowd outside the door and still felt a little unrealistic and dreamy.

"You passed the exam, of course I'm happy!"

Just ...

Somewhat confused.

Seeing her like this, Yuan Mo smiled gently.

"As long as Zhizhi is happy."

Outside the door, Chen Shiyi finally recovered. He turned around and signaled everyone to be quiet, and called Yuan Mo.

"Master Jieyuan, please say a few words!"

Yuan Mo walked slowly forward with the support of Nanzhi and the third young master.

He held the southern branch and spoke.

"Yuan Mo's success today is entirely due to my wife Zhizhi. Regardless of whether she passes the imperial examination and becomes the top scholar, or whether her position is high or low in the future... I will spend my whole life loving and protecting her!"

He looked at her with stars in his eyes.

After Yuan Mo confessed his love to her in front of everyone, Nanzhi finally came to her senses.

My cheeks turned red unconsciously.

Just as she was about to scold him for being so arrogant, the Third Young Master beat her to the punch.

"What about me? Big brother? What about me? What about me?"

Everyone was silent for a moment.

They all looked at the silly Third Young Master in surprise.

Discussing quietly.

"Who is this person? Why does he seem to be a little bit mentally unstable..."

"You are a patient of Divine Doctor Nan, right? Hush - don't talk nonsense! Anyone who can live in Divine Doctor Nan's house is not an ordinary person!"

The man nodded and kept his mouth shut.

Yuan Mo tilted his head and looked at the Third Young Master who was looking expectant, and smiled faintly.

"And protect you too."

"Yeah! Great!"

The third young master jumped up happily, but this made the people hiding in the dark very unhappy.

Nineteen hadn't noticed yet and praised:

"Wow, Dr. Nan's husband is so awesome! He passed the imperial examination and will have to go to Beijing to take the imperial examination soon!"

"Humph... He is just a juren, and he may not even pass the imperial examination. And yet he still brazenly talks about protecting his master..."

Nineteen glanced at him strangely and muttered to himself.

"Master is trying to gain connections for himself. Isn't this a great thing?"

After being warned by Seventeen again, he had no choice but to shut his mouth awkwardly.

The villagers here are still making a fuss.

"Master Jieyuan! When will you go to Beijing to take the exam?"

Yuan Mo nodded and smiled, tightening his hold on Nanzhi's hand.

"All matters in our family are decided by Zhizhi."

Nanzhi pushed him shyly and cleared her throat.

"Yuan Mo's legs still need to recover, so he plans to leave after the New Year."

When the crowd heard this, they started to make a noise again:

"Village head, Dr. Nan, this is such a big happy event, shouldn't we in Chenjiaao celebrate it?"

Nanzhi had already thought about it. He looked at Wang Xiaoe and smiled.

"Tomorrow! Everyone, please make time tomorrow and we'll kill a pig! If you can't finish the meat, we'll sell it at 25 yuan per pound."

"Hurrah--"

"Dr. Nan is so straightforward!"

The whole village was beaming with joy, but there was only one person who was hiding outside the crowd and staring at Yuan Mo's family with a sinister look...
