When you get married, you officially start a new chapter in your life.

This is especially true of the ancients, the youngest son became a parent, and the affairs around him were taken care of by his daughter-in-law, and since then, the right to speak in the family has gradually risen.

After the Lunar New Year, there was still red paper on the residual snow mixed with black mud on the ground, and Xie Zhiyan was about to set off for the county school again.

Lin Zhaotang saw the freshness after the New Year, and was picked up by Uncle Wang.

The Xie family has been quite rich this year, and there is a lot of meat left over from the banquet, but it can be regarded as raising some of the fat that has fallen from a few strong laborers, especially Sister-in-law Xie, who likes to lie down and loves to eat, and she is simply visibly fat.

Gu Xixi accepted Xie Zhiyan's allocation, except for the things within the division, he had to follow his sister-in-law everywhere, and he respected the eldest sister-in-law, which made Xie Zhang's heart unhappy and scolded his sister-in-law several times.

I want to support this girl in everything as usual, but the family has become a daughter-in-law, and I have to be busy with my son's affairs, and I can't spare time to spare time, so I have to work harder, and the resentment in my heart is even heavier.

People are like this, when they are working, they can't see others idle, and their sister-in-law who lies on the bed and holds her stomach and still wants to eat snacks has become a target for venting?

Spring in the north came relatively late, and the river had not completely thawed at this time, Xie Zhiyan said hello to Xie Zhang's with a small bucket of bamboo baskets and tools, and went out with Gu Xixi.

He's been wandering around lately, and although it's still cold, some plants on the mountain are already starting to sprout through the ground.

There is a saying that the mountain eats the mountain, but in the concept of the villagers here, this back mountain has no other role except for chopping wood and digging wild vegetables, and there are some wild things in the deep mountains that go inside, but no one dares to go.

Those who went to the ancient mountain villages were hunters, fighting wild boars and hunting tigers, and a lot of silver was purely a blind blow, there were once people who were not afraid of death to meet wild boars in the deep mountains, and were pushed out of internal injuries, and the accomplices died within two days of going down the mountain, and since then no one dared to go up the mountain, at most digging some small mushrooms at the foot of the mountain.

Even the back mountain has become a magic weapon for adults to scare disobedient children, and if you are disobedient, you will be thrown into the back mountain!

Xie Zhiyan didn't stay at home for a long time, he made a plan, basically had a plan for sleeping, studying, and fitness every day, and set aside a special time to "cultivate feelings with his little wife".

Although the two people do not have a further relationship, and the quilts on the bed are two, but after all, they live together, and in order to live a harmonious life in the future, the feelings that should be cultivated should be cultivated well.

For example, teaching the little wife to read and write, telling stories to the little wife, and so on.

Gu Xixi's comprehension ability was very fast, and these little stories quickly played a role, making her understand many truths that she was ignorant and ignorant before.

It turns out that this world is not what she thinks, and it turns out that women are not born to work and serve men and be angry, it turns out that ...... There are still many women in this world who have different ways of living.

Just like at this moment, the two of them walked one after the other, there was no one on the path, Xie Zhiyan suddenly handed a hand behind his back, and he grabbed it naturally, without the shyness and apprehension before.

It seems that the cultivation of feelings during this period of time has achieved initial results, and when he arrived at the river, Xie Zhiyan found a relatively narrow place at the bend of the river, and asked Gu Xixi to stand aside and watch, he took the rope and lifted the bucket and put it in the ice cave.

"Third brother, be careful of your step. ”

Gu Xixi was not very relieved, her impression of Xie Zhiyan was still that of the sick and crooked little brother back then, and he didn't get strong until he grew up.

Seeing Xie Zhiyan's steady movements and the ease with which she took care of her, she felt the change.

"Okay, don't worry, let's go to the back mountain first, and come back to see. ”

After putting the keg away, the two of them walked to the back mountain again.

Xie Zhiyan climbed up as much as he could, used all the biological knowledge in his mind, carefully distinguished the traces of animals and plants, and then concluded that there were still some medicinal values in the mountain, and then went down the mountain satisfied.

"Third brother, what were you doing just now?"

Gu Xixi asked curiously, after all, not everyone would squat down and pull the grass roots to smell the smell.

"Oh, a few days ago, I read a book of medical techniques with a graphic of Chinese herbal medicine, and I was bored to compare it. ”

Any question that takes care of Xixi, Xie Zhiyan can use reading books to give answers.

"That means we still have medicinal herbs in this mountain? Let's not go, dig up the medicinal herbs just now and sell them, so that you will have money when you go to the exam!"

Gu Xixi shouted happily, and Xie Zhiyan, who was watching, couldn't help laughing.

"Now it's just sprouting, and I can't see it, so I'll wait for a while, and the weather will warm up and come back to see if it's really good." ”

At present, a big problem is silver, Xie Zhiyan has not felt this way for a long time, the wages earned from copying books before plus some of the salaries of temporary workers who have not been handed over, together they bought a hairpin for Gu Xixi, and now he is destitute.

In order to provide him with education, there is basically no family background, this time in order to do a marriage for him, it is even more clean, although this family is more or less careful, in Xie Zhiyan's view, it is also normal, there will be different voices in any collective, but everyone still works together for him to study, which is very grateful to him.

After the county school opened, money was needed everywhere for food, clothing, housing and transportation, and the original owner's words must be to reach out to the party, everything is inferior only to study high, how can he be a scholar to worry about this kind of mundane things, he only needs to stretch out his hand.

As for how his closest family members earned the money, whether it was blood, sweat or digging in the soil, it was not his scope of consideration at all.

This is also normal, and this is the mode of education he received.

All he could do was to study hard to test his fame, and then he ascended to heaven and became an official, and the entire Xie family developed.

But when it was Xie Zhiyan's turn, he wouldn't sit back and wait to eat ready-made.

Even this girl, who is a child daughter-in-law, in the whole family, doesn't want to use any possibility to make money for him all the time, so how can he bear it.

Autumn was in the middle of August, but the slow carriage and the difficult way to walk made it difficult for those of them to take the exam to set off for the provincial capital almost a month in advance.

If you have money, you can rent a room alone, inquire about the interpersonal relationships around you, the precautions in the examination room, prepare for the exam without hurry, study behind closed doors step by step, and set off to take the exam when it is time for the exam.

If you don't have any money, you have to share a room with a few people, or live in a noisy lower hotel.
