MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 560 Who is challenging the lady?
Chapter 560 Who is challenging the lady?
“The Qi family’s guards are all there during the day, and there may be Qi Xiang’s spies among them. The villain has never had a chance to identify himself with the gentleman.”
"Tonight I finally found an opportunity to meet you. Sir, Your Highness, he has always felt guilty because of the incident that caused him to end up here. He wanted to find him several times and say sorry to him face to face, but the princess blocked him many times. , and have been unable to leave Beijing.”
“Fortunately, I have finally met my husband. His Highness will be very happy to know that you are well.”
The amount of information was simply explosive. Qin Yao was listening with great interest when she heard Gong Liangxiao’s angry low roar:
"roll!"
After saying this exquisite word "gun", the room was eerily silent for a moment.
Qin Yao, who was eavesdropping, opened her mouth and said silently: Wow~
"Why don't you get out? Are you waiting for me to call someone?" Gong Liangliao had such a bad temper that he came up as soon as he was told and wanted to call someone immediately.
Zhen Yubai was in a hurry and had no time to say anything, so he quickly got up and fled from the Lotus Courtyard.
The moment he opened the door, he seemed to feel something. He glanced at the left wall, but only saw Agu who had passed out. His eyebrows were deeply furrowed. He came over to help him up and leaned against the pillar, waving his hand to express understanding. The medicine flew over the wall as lightly as it came, and left reluctantly.
On the beam, Qin Yao's feet slowly dropped down to touch the ground. She fell gently, covering her heart, her heart pounding. She was almost discovered. It was so exciting!
However, no matter how exciting it is, it is not as exciting as the information I just heard.
From what Zhen Yubai meant, he was actually a spy sent by a certain highness to find Gong Liangliao.
The reaction of the old man Gong Liangliao was even more interesting. He actually asked people to get out. It seemed that he did not want to be found by that highness.
But he didn’t want to be found. How long can these peaceful days last?
Thinking of the old man's stubborn appearance despite his physical disability and strong will, Qin Yao couldn't help but feel a little more sympathy for him.
Those high and mighty Highnesses, why can't they let a disabled old man spend his old age in peace!
It’s inhumane~
Qin Yao sighed, and jumped out of the lotus courtyard a second before Agu opened his eyes.
Back home, I took off my dirty outer clothes, got into the bed warmed by the hot water bladder with only my thin inner shirt on, covered my head and slept soundly.
When I woke up the next day, I suddenly remembered an important thing - what would Liu Laosan do if the old man left?
Just when Qin Yao was silent, secretly thinking about killing Zhen Yubai and burying her, Liujiacun School finally started.
Zhen Yubai chose the 21st to start school. The villagers got the news two days earlier and immediately made preparations for their children.
Book boxes, the four treasures of the study, and charcoal braziers were all prepared for the children. Seeing that the weather was getting colder, each family was afraid that the children would be unable to write due to the cold, so they gritted their teeth and made New Year's clothes in advance.
The villagers of Liujia Village are really willing to spend money this year. After all, they just received a dividend of 5 taels of silver a few days ago, which is more than enough to buy a cotton-padded coat for everyone in the family.
The news about the opening of the school has also spread to several villages near Liujiacun.
When the day came for the school to start, the villagers leading the children to sign up had been queuing up since early in the morning.
A fire dragon winds its way from the Liujia Village School to the mountain col at the entrance of the village, and a faint light of fire can still be seen.
People from Xiahe Village and Jinshi Town came, as well as the very remote Shanghe Village, which is located upstream of Liujia Village, and they also brought their children to try their luck.
After the promotion of free admission in the previous two years, the people of Shengguo are now basically aware of this good thing that benefits the people. As long as they have the opportunity, they want their children to study for two years even if they have no money to borrow.
However, the proportion of boys is much greater than that of girls. Two years later, there is still not much change.
But Qin Yao will feel happy every time there is another girl in the school. At least there's a little change, isn't it?
There are only fifty seats in the Liujiacun school. Children from the own village who are eligible for free admission have to occupy twenty seats, leaving only thirty places for other villages.
Zhen Yubai followed the lottery method learned from the Ding family and asked Qin Yao, the village chief, to hold the lottery tube and let the children who came to sign up draw lottery in turn.
But before drawing lots, Qin Yao gave the three lots to the only three girls in the registration team.
And because they could come because they had brothers at home who could accompany them to and from school, Qin Yao directly gave three places to the brothers of the three girls. Suddenly there were thirty places, and only twenty-four were left.
The whole place was in an uproar!
“Didn’t we agree to draw lots? Village chief, what do you mean?”
“I started rushing here in the middle of the night just to catch up with my son. How could you do this!”
“That’s right! How can we directly give the quota after we’ve agreed to draw lots? It’s not fair!”
Some people are clamoring to report it to the government. After all, the last time the Ding family tampered with the quota, the county magistrate punished them severely.
Zhen Yubai didn’t expect Qin Yao to do this, so she was a little surprised and a little panicked.
Looking at the angry expressions of the villagers, he was really worried that people from several villages would start fighting with people from Liujia Village.
The facts were as he expected. In order to protect their village chief, the villagers of Liujia Village stood up one after another, protecting Qin Yao in the middle, and glared fiercely at the people from other villages who shouted at their village chief.
Liu Yang, the clan leader and the old village chief tried to mediate in the middle, saying that the village chief must have his own reasons for doing this. Everyone was calm and calm. After all, there were still twenty-four places left.
Liu Ji was at the Lotus Courtyard when he suddenly heard the noise coming from the school. His heart skipped a beat. Without looking, his instinct told him that the mother-in-law at home must have done something outrageous!
“Teacher, little brother, I’m going to take a shit.” Liu Ji dropped his pen and ran away without waiting for Gong Liangliao and Qi Xianguan’s reply.
He had to go over and keep an eye on that woman. A little thing about school enrollment made her want to fight. She really couldn't do it without him.
Passing by the bridge, Liu Ji did not forget to shout to the mountainside: "Awang!"
Awang poked his head out of the gate and saw the old man standing on the bank of the river, waving to him frantically.
He sighed helplessly and had no choice but to duck to the side of the elder.
With Awang as his personal bodyguard, Liu Jixiong rushed to the school with great energy.
As soon as he arrived, he shouted loudly: "Who is challenging my wife? Are you going to go to the government to sue her? Have you asked the judge what I want?!"
The people of Liujia Village saw that the Juren Master was coming and quickly stepped back to make way for him.
The noisy and jealous villagers from other villages suddenly lost their arrogance when they heard the name was raised.
Liu Ji raised his chin, used his nostrils to fight all the people in the outer village, and walked all the way to Qin Yao.
When facing outsiders, Liu Juren's nostrils were pointed upward.
When facing his wife, Liu Juren was obedient.
She licked her smile and said softly: "Madam, if you want to open the back door for those three girls, just come quietly. If you don't bother to do such a thing, leave it to me. I'm shameless. Now Aren't you going to get caught by doing this so blatantly?"
Qin Yao’s eyes were cold and her fists clenched loudly.
Liu Ji sighed helplessly, "I know Madam, you must have your reasons for doing things. Now that things have happened, Madam, please give me a reason, and I will help you teach them a lesson."
Qin Yao: "There is no reason, I will give it if I want."
This is what she said sincerely. I just want to let those three girls enter school, there is no reason.
Liu Ji stiffened and said, "Ah, this lady, calm down and don't be like them. You have to rest for a while. I'll be back soon."
He can just come up with a reason himself!
