Before going to the provincial capital, Miao Rencui exchanged most of the dowry gifts sent by the Liang family for silver money for Chen Ping to take the Xiucai examination, and after passing the county examination, she was ashamed to say that her son would definitely be able to take the Xiucai exam this time. Who would have thought that the time for the release of the list was getting closer and closer, but Chen Ping had no news.

Miao Rencui beat the drum in his heart, and in the face of the doubts of the third aunt and six mothers-in-law, he had to puff up his chest and boast that the later he came back, the greater the chance of his son being admitted to the exam, and he shared with others what his son said about the difficulties of entering the exam.

The villagers who didn't know what to do still thought that Miao Rencui was true, and they were glad that Chen Jiagou was finally going to produce a learned descendant, and even the village chief looked up to Boss Chen. The flattery of the villagers made Miao Rencui very proud for a while, but as time passed, the whole family was inevitably shrouded in a layer of melancholy.

What kind of virtue Chen Ping is, his family knows best, and he remembers the calendar, no wonder Boss Chen is worried, but he is afraid that this kid will repeat the mistakes of the past and owe a lot of debts before he is willing to return home.

Miao Rencui counted the rest of the house, hugged it to his chest and wailed, ", if you dare to come back in debt, even if I cut off relations with him, I won't allow him to step into the house even if I cut off the relationship!"

Boss Chen sighed and shook his head again and again, afraid that good things would not go out, and bad things would spread thousands of miles. After a long time, even if they want to hide it, they can't hide it, why did he give birth to such a rebel!

The Liang family sent a dowry worth 300 taels, but after selling it, it was only exchanged for less than 200 taels of silver. Chen Ping went to the county seat to take the test and spent 10 taels, and this time he went to the provincial capital to take away 100 taels, and the remaining 70 taels are like Miao Rencui's lifeblood, and even his own son is not as precious as this silver.

Holding the only remaining dozens of taels of silver, Miao Rencui did not go out of the door and hid at home without going out, and even the relatives who came to the door to find the news asked her to use a broom to drive away.

For a while, the words of envy and compliment immediately turned into ridicule and ridicule, praising Miao Rencui for giving birth to a good son, and he would not stop dragging the old Chen family into the underworld. What's more, he gloated and predicted that Mr. Chen's family would usher in a new round of debt collectors, but Chen Qing was married, and there was no one to fight debts for the family.

Liang Zijun sorted out the affairs of the store, and then he stayed at home and read a book. Fortunately, the raw materials of cloth will be transported to the county seat regularly every month, and it also saves the fatigue of going out to buy.

Approaching the summer solstice, the weeds in the ground are growing wildly, Chen Qing has to supervise the owner to warm the book every day, fortunately, the temperature here is not too high, Chen Qing can clean up the three acres of dry land in the morning and evening.

After returning home at noon, I first washed off my sweat before starting the fire to cook, and stewed a bowl of drinks (drinks) in the soup pot, which was boiled with herbs to quench my thirst and also had the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying.

Chen Qing has long been accustomed to people calling hot drinks "soup" and cold water "water". People who are more particular about it will mix honey with water, called honey water, which is a rare drink in summer.

According to Liang Zijun, there are still drinking shops selling ice in the summer in Beijing, but unfortunately there are no in Qingping County, otherwise even if he spends a lot of money, Chen Qing wants to get a bowl to satisfy his hunger.

Sending Liang Zijun a bowl of drink, Chen Qing opened the window sash before turning around and leaving the study, not daring to peek at Liang Zijun during the whole process. Liang Zijun silently put down the book, looked at the back for a long time before sighing and holding his chin in a daze.

It stands to reason that Chen Qing should have new meat inside at this moment, and it is the time when the itching is unbearable, but this guy is very capable of enduring, and Liang Zijun does not dare to touch the tiger's whiskers, for fear that there will be insufficient time to annoy Chen Qing.

Chen Qing swallowed a mouthful of saliva, desperately endured the restlessness in his body, and replaced the slightly thinner jade pillar, the feeling of fullness was replaced by a sense of emptiness, and he endured the numbness and itching of his heart every day, and he couldn't wait to reach in and dig twice to stop the itching.

Thanks to Chen Qing's good patience, otherwise Liang Zijun would have to be knocked down at this time, awkwardly clamped his legs and went to the stove room to bring out lunch, his eyes and nose and nose and heart were silently eating, but he refused to look at Liang Zijun.

Liang Zijun endured it for more than a month, but he couldn't even read the taste of his daughter-in-law every day, but he didn't even have the heart to read a book, but Chen Qing forbade him to get close to within a meter, Liang Zijun had to pretend to be a warm book every day, but his eyes chased the slender figure from time to time.

Halfway through the meal, Chen Qing pursed the corners of his mouth and got up to go to the clean room, Liang Zijun inexplicably bit his chopsticks to watch him leave the table in a hurry, but he didn't dare to talk, so as not to catch fire.

Gritted his teeth and squatted in the latrine, holding back the whispering moans that overflowed the corners of his lips. After wiping it with a cloth towel, Chen Qing couldn't help frowning, now he doesn't even have to use bamboo to shave when he goes to the toilet, looking at the thin layer of water on the cloth towel, he has no choice but to lift his pants and tie them tightly.

He finally knew the difference between the little brother and the grandfathers at this moment, Brother Yang said that the more you use it, the softer it is, it is not a lie, the newly grown flocculent tender meat inside is not only soft and tender, but also extremely sensitive, and the big size can make the front faintly hard, not to mention what it is like to really come in.

Chen Qing is not an ascetic, he is really comfortable, and he will not say anything he doesn't want to say, but he is ashamed to speak out because of his face, and at most he expresses his dissatisfaction with his actions.

It has been forbearance for a long time, and he has basically reached his own limit, but Liang Zijun did not dare to act rashly, forcing Chen Qing to be patient secretly.

After purifying his hands and returning to his seat, he suddenly met Liang Zijun's eyes, and the two avoided their eyes one after another, bowing their heads and slamming their meals. Chen Qing put a chopstick of meat into Liang Zijun's bowl, and said in a low voice, "Don't just eat"

The low and hoarse voice even startled Chen Qing himself, Liang Zijun raised his head in surprise, looking at the pair of moist and aggrieved eyes, and his face tensed instantly. Damn, if he can bear it again, he won't be a gentleman, his daughter-in-law will look at him with pitiful little eyes, and it would be strange if he could pretend to be a grandson.

Liang Zijun dropped his chopsticks suddenly, dragged someone to the bedroom under Chen Qing's surprised gaze, and rushed to the bedroom.

Chen Qing closed his eyes tightly, clutched his front placket and refused to give in, if it was still as uncomfortable as before, it was better to endure it any longer. However, Liang Zijun has endured to the limit, and broke Chen Qing's claws with his dead hand, if he doesn't force him to face the reality at this moment, how should he live in the future?

It wasn't until the emptiness was completely filled that the two sighed one after another, and the beautiful and pleasant touch made Chen Qing let down his guard, opened a pair of misty eyes and grabbed the big hairy head, grabbing his hair and desperately catering to it.

Liang Zijun galloped on the wet field painfully and happily, and quickly whipped his daughter-in-law up one hill after another, until he was sweating profusely and slumped on the bed, and he was still satisfied with the smile on his sweaty face.

"Heh......" chuckled and hugged the person who was soft into a ball, secretly thinking that he had not endured it in vain these days, and reached out to touch the inner wall of the inch thick, and rubbed it after pulling it out!

"Daughter-in-law~" Liang Zijun arched his big head into the side of Chen Qing's neck, begging to come again.

Chen Qing squinted his eyes contentedly, tired and refused to speak, letting the insatiable bastard eat and wipe him inside and out before he fell asleep.

The long-term drought and nectar just describe Liang Zijun's mood at this moment, every time he sees Chen Qing's forbearance and grievances, he is as excited as a chicken blood, and there is Yan Ruyu in the book.

For a few days in a row, after Chen Qing relieved the itch, he began to carry the unenterprising Liang into the study to warm the book. Liang Zijun's pitiful expression was all suppressed by iron blood, Chen Qing took a feather duster and slapped his arm that came up with a sneak attack, and coldly urged, "Study!"

Liang Zijun rubbed his arm, picked up the book and shook his head and recited dryly, did he want to work so hard? It was easy to open meat, and it only lasted less than half a month! In the blink of an eye, he couldn't help but look forward to the arrival of the next month and a half.

The cloth workshop is operating normally, and Liang Zijun is relieved to be the shopkeeper, reading books at home every day to tease his daughter-in-law, and his life is called a leisurely life. Because he was about to leave for the exam after the autumn, Chen Qing began to prepare autumn clothes for Liang Zijun.

Shen Shucheng took several turnovers to deliver a letter to the Liang Ji Cloth Workshop, and Chen Qing was happy to open it, but it was a mixed blessing. It turned out that Shen Shucheng tried to get the second class, and after the court examination, he was awarded the post of magistrate by the imperial court, and immediately went to Yunzhou to take office, and he couldn't even squeeze out the time to return to his hometown to worship his ancestors.

Fortunately, this time he left the exact address of the county office, and Chen Qing thought for a moment and began to write a reply. first congratulated him sincerely, and then told him to be careful in everything. It is not an easy task to take care of the affairs of a county, and many wealthy gentry and friends cannot be offended, so as not to cause difficulties for them to govern the county and town in the future.

Chen Qing was glad that Brother Shen's wish to benefit the party had been realized, but he was worried that his overly upright personality would bring disaster to himself. At the end of the three-year term, those who do well are expected to be promoted, and those who do not do well may also be dismissed and punished by the imperial court, and those who do not make a big mistake can continue to stay in office until the replacement official is sent to the county.

Chen Qing believes that Shen Shucheng is not a mediocre person, and he also believes that he will be able to fulfill his duties and be a good parental official, but in an unfamiliar environment and without help, it is inevitable that he will be constrained everywhere, and he will be too honest and upright instead of a good thing.

Just like He Zhi County in Qingping County, when he first arrived, he also saw the face of the businessman and the rich gentry, and he didn't dare to vigorously rectify it until he found out the intricate interpersonal context of Qingping County, and even accepted bribes.

It is not uncommon for a re-election in a small county town like Qingping County, which does not have much oil and water, and some remote and impoverished counties and towns even have officials who have served to the end and died in the place where they worked. Most of the incumbent officials, if they do not dare to guarantee a certain promotion, they will even take the initiative to befriend the local rich gentry, trying to work steadily until they leave office.

Sprinkled with two pieces of letterhead, Chen Qing still did not feel at ease to write down many views and ideas one by one, and finally even realized that it was too long-winded, and hurriedly finished a few strokes, and at the end he also told him to wait for the opportunity in the early stage, and then vigorously rectify the situation after finding out the situation.

Folded up a thick stack of letter paper and stuffed it into the envelope, and handed out under Liu Bo's surprised eyes, "Please also ask Liu Bo to help me send it to the post station on a certain day."

Liu Hengshan took the letter and pinched it, chuckled and shook his head, "It's thicker than a family letter, don't worry, I will definitely help you deliver it"
