Sure enough, in the afternoon, Erhua and her man came in a car.

"Sanhua'er said that she would go back to the village first to prepare the things for the sacrifice, and let us go back to the village directly after we finish it."

Erhua jumped out of the car and began to move things down.

This time, they brought a lot of ingredients and daily necessities. Everything in the county town has to be bought, and some are much more expensive than in the village, so they take advantage of the time they come to the county to send a car over.

They brought a cart of things, and when they went back, they would also load a cart of things prepared by their eldest brother-in-law.

Although Dabao is the last one, he is also the youngest in the grade of this year's candidates. At the banquet, the county lord also specially asked him to say a few words, which were nothing more than words of encouragement.

Because the grade is too young, and there is not much common language with other students, the older rookies behind the banquet made an appointment to continue drinking without calling him, and they really can't bear to teach such a young child badly.

Dabao didn't go to his heart, and respectfully sent the elders and fellow students away, and then walked home by himself, so proud, he was still a child at first glance.

The rich children in the city who sat in the restaurant opposite wanted to see the excitement of this year's rookie talents, but when they saw a bouncing child, many people couldn't help but almost squirt out a sip of wine.

"That is the youngest Xiucai Gong this year, I heard that he is only nine years old."

"Oh my god, nine years old!"

The news spread instantly. Whether it is the current dynasty or the previous dynasty, there is no shortage of prodigies, most of them were selected at the age of eleven or twelve, and even those who were lifted. But they have never had a child in this place who can get a reputation for talent at such an age, and for a while, I don't know how many people envy this Wei family who is a prodigy.

"Dabao is also lucky, this time thanks to Gongzi's guessing question, he was able to pass the hospital exam."

Wei Jin set up a banquet to invite Wei Zan to dinner, all of them were his own family, and the two elders of the Wei family were accompanied.

There is no doubt that Wei Maoxing is a descendant of the Wei family, he can be admitted to Xiucai, and he has also earned money for his own lineage, especially at this juncture when the main family is coming, their team has exploded into a nine-year-old showman, and he can more or less straighten his backbone in the main branch.

Wei Zan has seen a lot of geniuses, their master family generally does not allow boys under the age of twelve to participate in the imperial examination, if they want to go, unless they can win the top three, otherwise they will be punished by the family even if they pass the exam.

Of course, this is because of the different educational resources they have received since childhood, and Wei Zan is not stupid enough to say this in front of others. Besides, Dabao's talent is indeed good, but after reading books for more than a year, he can pass three college exams, and many people can't pass the exam after reading for more than ten years.

Three days later, Dabao, accompanied by the eldest sister's family and the second sister, returned to his hometown to pay tribute to his parents.

The tomb of the Wei family's father and mother is on the hillside next to the ancestral tomb, in a good location, just facing the tea mountain that Wei Jin bought.

The four girls of the Wei family are not eligible to participate in the ceremony, they can only wait for the formal ceremony to be completed, and then worship their father and mother in private.

Because Dabao was in Xiucai, the people in the village had a higher opinion of the Wei sisters, and some people came up to say goodbye to Dabao, but they were all blocked by Wei Jin.

What does a nine-year-old kid say? These are just trying to trap people while Dabao is young, and if Dabao is lifted in a few years, it will be impossible to marry a country girl as a wife.

Originally, Wei Zan was still a little worried that the Wei family sisters would be dizzy, so they responded to Dabao's family affairs in a daze. As a result, I didn't expect that within a few days, news came out, saying that the third girl of the Wei family said that her younger brother should concentrate on studying and not consider starting a family.

"If you really don't win, you won't be able to start a family?"

"Where is it possible!" Hearing the second sister's words, Wei Jin laughed, "I said I didn't think about it, and I didn't say that I couldn't get married." When the time comes, Dabao has a girl he likes, let's just go directly to propose, is it possible that someone will come up and say that our Dabao can't get married if he doesn't win? The law doesn't say so. ”

Hearing this, Erhua'er was relieved, turned her head and poked Wei Jin's finger: "Look at you, you are so powerful, when will you also consider your own family affairs." ”

As soon as he said this, Wei Jin's smile faded a little.

"Sister, I've thought about it, I may not get married in my life. After a few years, when our family is rich, I will find a name to hang around for a while, and then go back to my hometown and say that the man is dead, and it is not that I can't afford to pay the poll tax anyway. ”

"You, why do you think that?" Erhua was in a hurry, pulled her arm and shouted, and then realized that something was wrong, and hurriedly whispered, "When a man is married, a woman is married, why do you want not to marry?" ”

"Sister, it's good to live alone, I have money, and when I get old, I'll buy two girls to serve me, it's really not good, don't have a big treasure, I let his child die for me, he doesn't dare not."

"Is this a question of daring?" Erhua didn't have a rut, squatted down and held Wei Jin's face, and said, "Second sister, I don't know how much you remember from the past, but look at it, our father, eldest sister and eldest brother-in-law, don't I and your second brother-in-law have a good time?" ”

"Then look at the little grandfather in the south, his mother went in an unknown way, turned his head and stepped on the throne, and almost lost the life of the little grandfather. The richer you are, the darker your heart is. ”

"Our family, our family doesn't have that power." Erhua was shocked, she didn't expect Wei Jin to be directly dragged to the grandfather's mansion, "Could it be that your father and mother?" ”

"I can't remember, but I vaguely remember that it was my father's people who were chasing and killing our mother and son, and then I fell into the water, and then I should have been rescued by my father. The previous events were muddy, and I can't remember it really. ”

Erhua still remembers what her father said when he was there, saying that Sanhua'er's background should be very good, and when she was rescued, the clothes she wore were not worn by ordinary children, but the injuries on her body were not all left by stumbles, I am afraid that someone would want to harm her.

She lives a simple life, even if she is poor, but she is also a child loved by her father, and she never thought that the injury on poor Sanhua'er actually came from her father.

After hearing this, Erhua gasped and stopped persuading.

They didn't expect that the whispers they said in the stove house were all listened to by the little teeth across the wall.

When she heard Wei Jin's injury and when she almost died, Xiaoya's eyes turned red, and it took a long time to grit her teeth and endure the anger.

That night, Little Tooth tossed and turned and couldn't sleep, and it was almost the middle of the night before he made up his mind to take out the bone flute and go out.

"The little grandfather has already decided? In this case, the little one will immediately send a message to the adult, so that someone can arrange for someone to pick up the little grandfather as soon as possible. ”

Xiaoya nodded, and at the end of the day, he ordered a few more words, asking people to check the past when Wei Jin was rescued.

This matter does not seem to be a secret in the village, and there is no trace of concealment in the attitude of the Wei family, and it is estimated that there are many people who knew about it at the beginning.

The man was ordered to leave in a hurry to do something, Xiaoya looked at the sky, and simply picked up the axe and went up the mountain.

When it was a lot of daylight, Wei Jin and the second sister had just cooked the meal, and they saw Xiaoya coming back with the firewood carried by the eldest on his back.

"You stupid boy, we haven't lived in the village for a long time, and we'll leave when we set up the flowing water mat, why are you getting so much firewood back for?"

Erhua taught Xiaoya straightforwardly, and when he saw him pursing his lips and smiling, he couldn't bear to touch his forehead.

"Let's go wash and get ready for dinner, I'm going to set up a running water seat today, I have to help, you and the family watch more."

Can't wait for Xiaoya to answer, she picked up the prepared vegetable basket and went to the drying dam outside the ancestral hall.
