In a remote area like northern Shaanxi, it didn't cost much to buy a courtyard, it cost more than 40 taels of silver.

The remaining 160 taels of silver, the majority of which Qin Sulan spent money to replace Wei Fengyu, who could only use the worst rice paper and inkstone, with the best study utensils she could buy.

Qin Sulan didn't use a penny of the rest of the money on herself, and what's more, she also sold her small dowry jewelry to supplement her family, so that the Wei family, who had not been able to eat oil meat twice a year before, could eat meat dishes almost every other day.

This kind of sitting and eating empty life has lasted for 2 years.

However, Qin Sulan felt that all this was worth it, and when she was in Beijing, she often listened to the story of her sister who studied hard for ten years in the cold window of those poor students, and finally won the top prize in high school, and took her married wife to Beijing to enjoy happiness.

Although I don't know why my sister doesn't want her cousin, she has to push her to such an excellent Fengyu, but Qin Sulan was still grateful to her eldest sister at that time, if it wasn't for Suyun's design to frame her, she would not have been able to marry the eldest son of such a scholarly family.

Although Wei Fengyu is only a small branch of the Wei family, and his family is in the middle of the road, he really has the spirit of hard work and hard work that those brothers from the capital family do not have.

Her husband studied hard every day, and she believed that he would definitely be able to go to high school in the third attempt.

The exam is about to start for more than half a year, and Wei Fengyu told Qin Sulan that she hadn't seen her parents for a long time, so she would take her to Beijing this time.

Qin Sulan was moved by her husband's thoughtfulness, and thanked her mother, who died early, for blessing her to marry a reliable person.

She didn't know that Wei Fengyu brought her only because he knew that his level couldn't be high school at all, so he took Qin Sulan just to make her feel guilty.

Sure enough, Qin Sulan, a woman who has been raised in the boudoir since she was a child, although she is not taken care of by her mother-in-law, she has not done any hard work, her body is naturally delicate, and she has been spending money to live in northern Shaanxi, and she does not need to do hard work, so her body is not much stronger.

The last time she went back to northern Shaanxi, she also had a comfortable carriage arranged by the Qin government to sit in, and there was a shockproof cushion in the car.

However, the cushion had already been dismantled by Wei's mother to make a chair cushion, and Qin Sulan naturally couldn't enjoy a comfortable environment when she went to Beijing this time.

Worried about delaying her husband's time in Beijing, she endured the pain and did not speak, and the day and night journey finally made her weak and sick.

In the days when Qin Sulan was sick, Wei Fengyu stopped the trip to help her find a doctor, and took care of her at the guest house, decocting medicine for her and wiping her sweat, which was so inconsiderate.

Qin Sulan was moved, but at the same time, she was worried that her husband would not be able to take the exam, so she urged him to go on the road, and she could take someone to Beijing slowly.

But Wei Fengyu can act, and thoughtfully comforted him, even if he can't go to high school for her, he doesn't regret it, Jinshi is just a name, but his wife is only her, and if she loses it, she will never be found again.

took care of his seriously ill wife and fell off the list, this is just Wei Fengyu finding a perfect excuse for his possible failure, and it is nice to say it.

Besides, he was on the list for the sake of Master Qin's daughter, how could Master Qin arrange an official and a half position for him, an ordinary lifter would be even more difficult to fill the vacancy, but who asked him to calculate that he would have come to a Beijing official to be his father-in-law, and he would not have to work hard to take the exam to become an official.

It's not that Wei Fengyu doesn't want to read books and take the imperial examination, be a protégé of the son of heaven or be the champion, the usual exams, the results are very good, even the township exam is the first place, but Wei Fengyu has a problem, in the current terminology, that is, "claustrophobia".

The examination environment of the examination is much worse than that of the township examination, hundreds of high-achieving students from all over the country come to the capital to participate in the examination, the examination place is so big, the single room of the grid is called the number, five feet long, four feet wide, and eight feet high, such a house, the normal seven-foot man is uncomfortable to sit, not to mention his claustrophobia.

As soon as he entered the number, Wei Fengyu had a tightness in his chest and a headache and wanted to rush out, and he was able to endure his temperament for three days, Wei Fengyu was amazingly controllable, but where could he still write a rigorous eight-strand essay, and it was not enough to write it, and he couldn't make sense of bullshit, where could he get a tribute student, let alone get the qualification for the palace examination and get a jinshi, or a high school champion, unless the examiners were crazy.

Therefore, after the first examination, Wei Fengyu wanted to use his aunt's relationship to enter the Qin family and kidnap the Qin family's daughter as a daughter-in-law, so that he could be the Qin family's fast son-in-law, and with the help of the Qin family's ability, he could also get the opportunity to fill the vacancy.

At the beginning, it also made Qin Suyun's face blush and heartbeat, where did she know that she would change her hexagram halfway, and calculate what third lady he would get.

The third miss is the third miss, in short, it is still the Qin family's species, looking at the dowry prepared by Master Qin to marry his daughter, he also knows that he doesn't care about her completely.

It's just that there is a rule in the Mingzhu Dynasty that people must not pass the examination three times before they can be registered for vacancy.

Therefore, this third exam, although Wei Fengyu did not plan to take the exam, he must also hurry up to get the exam, did not sign in to Beijing for the exam, he will be very open-minded to stay for one more term, he doesn't want to wait for three years, this year, he must be an official, even if he goes back to northern Shaanxi to be a small county official, he is also very satisfied.

How many candidates in the Mingzhu Dynasty who have passed the three levels and cut six generals can only receive an official who is released, and when he becomes a county master, he may not have the opportunity to be promoted in the future.

And he only needs to get a wife early, and it is possible to become an official one step earlier than those people.

Wei Fengyu felt that he was already very considerate that his father-in-law was just a four-grade small Beijing official, but he just wanted a small county magistrate in a remote place to be in charge, and he believed that relying on his own ability and his father-in-law who would be promoted in the future, he would be promoted to the prefect of the prefecture in a few years, and finally enter Beijing as an official.

If Yuezhang was a prime minister, Wei Fengyu would definitely want to be an official in Beijing.

However, Wei Fengyu was disappointed, and after he once again lost Sun Shan's reputation as an emaciated infatuated lover for his wife, Master Qin did arrange a county magistrate for him.

But the reality is cruel, he doesn't have the strength he imagined, and he can't do anything to make achievements, he can't rely on himself, and the only backer Master Qin has long been disgusted with Wei Fengyu and Qin Sulan by Qin Suyun.

After Master Qin arranged a seven-rank small county official for Wei Fengyu, he never took care of him anymore, and he didn't say hello at all and take care of him or anything.

To put it bluntly, those who can fill the vacancies to become officials have more or less connections behind him, there is Master Qin in the capital behind him, and behind others there is Master Zhao and Master Zhang in the capital, maybe it is still something that Master Qin can't touch, he can't step on others, and he can only shrink up.

After being ugly twice, Wei Fengyu was honest, but at this time, he was still good to Qin Sulan, at least he didn't give his face or tear his face, after all, he had a Beijing official father.

Qin Sulan should be the happiest at this time, her husband has a career, she has become a magistrate, and she is also an official, although the official position is not big, but the mountain is high and the emperor is far away, in this small county, she feels more comfortable than in the capital.

However, the fateful moment came.
