On the wedding day, Mo Niang, full of trepidation, met her husband for the first time.

He was gentle, elegant, and dignified. He smiled gently at her as soon as he lifted the veil.

Before going out to entertain the guests, he was worried that she was hungry, so he had someone prepare food for her and also told her to change her clothes first to avoid getting tired.

Thoughtful and considerate, making people feel like spring breeze.

What’s more valuable is that both Mo Niang and he are well-read and have a lot in common.

In the first two days of their marriage, the two read books, played chess, talked about poetry and painting together, just like close friends.

Mo Niang gradually felt that her grandmother was right, and getting married didn't seem so scary after all.

When she returned home three days later, Mrs. Yuan saw that her face was full of sweetness and shyness, and her granddaughter-in-law was also very considerate, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to her.

At the same time, the triennial provincial examination officially kicked off.

After nine days of exams, most of the candidates felt like they had lost half their lives.

Teacher Qiao rested at home for five days and finally recovered.

He felt that he had done well in the exam and had a good chance of passing the imperial examination, so he once again asked Qin Zhenniang about the generous gift that his Yue family had prepared for him.

"You said last time that the Yue family would wait until I finished my exams before preparing the gifts. Now that I have finished my exams, go remind them."

Qin Zhenniang looked embarrassed.

The last time she went home, she was afraid of affecting her husband's imperial examination, so she did not dare to tell him the truth. She could only make excuses and delay it for as long as possible.

Now, the time has come to tell the truth.

"Sir, with our family background, it's very difficult to make Lord Zhang look at us differently. Official families like that are not short of money. I think it's better not to touch this soft nail, and directly get a place in the Imperial College as a donated student, and you can also get the guidance of a famous teacher."

Teacher Qiao could tell something was wrong:

"How can a teacher from the Nandu Imperial College be compared with Lord Zhang! What do you mean? Could it be that my father-in-law and his family didn't agree to it last time?"

Zhenniang lowered her head, feeling very ashamed.

Teacher Qiao sneered immediately.

"It's really chilling! They are my biological father-in-law and mother-in-law, not only are they of no help to me in terms of family life, but at the critical moment, they are unwilling to help me with even a little money!"

Zhenniang felt very uncomfortable.

My husband should have known before he married her that their family was just a lowly merchant family and that they couldn’t help him with their family background.

Why do you have to use this kind of thing to hurt her feelings at this time?

Sometimes she also felt more and more that her relationship with her husband was not as good as when they were first married.

She felt wronged and resentful in her heart, but was still afraid that he would get angry, so she pulled Teacher Qiao's sleeve and advised:

"My parents also thought that the threshold of Master Zhang's position was too high and ordinary people couldn't reach it, so they didn't want to waste their efforts."

Teacher Qiao snorted coldly and shook off her sleeves.

"Forget it, since you can't be trusted, I'll find a way myself!"

This time, he really spent a huge sum of money, a full one hundred taels of silver, to bribe a servant beside Zhang Jinghong and ask him about Zhang Jinghong's preferences.

He also stated that if he could gain the favor of Lord Zhang, he would give him one hundred taels of silver as a reward.

Seeing that he was sincere, the servant told him a very important piece of news.

"If you want to win the favor of Lord Zhang, it's useless to give him anything. It's better to start with something else."

"Please teach me, little brother."

"Go find a doctor who can cure the strange illness of the eldest son of the Jingnan Marquis's mansion."

"Why is this?" Teacher Qiao was puzzled.

At his level, it was naturally impossible for him to find out about the marriage relationship between the Zhang family and the Jingnan Marquis' Mansion.

The servant patiently explained to him, and told him how much the Zhang family loved the eldest son of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.

It also describes the illness of the eldest son of the Jingnan Marquis's Mansion.

"If you have any news, tell me directly and I will take you to see the master." If he can really cure Young Master Jin's illness, he will be rewarded handsomely.

Qiao Shiyou suddenly remembered the spots on his wife's face and his heart moved.

He remembered that Zhenniang went out for a day, and when she came back in the evening, the spots on her face had completely disappeared, without any trace left.
