The Silly Scholar's Bastard Wife

Chapter 61

"Brother Mu."

Wang Qingquan saw that Mu Chenxi was walking with wind today, and he was so high-spirited that it was dazzling, "Is there anything happy about you today? Seeing you in high spirits makes me feel better." "

My dad is here . Look at me."

Mu Chenxi smiled, "Of course I'm happy!"

"Uh."

Wang Qingquan didn't expect this. He really couldn't see through Mu Chenxi. Does he need to be happy?

He asked tentatively, "Just this one thing, nothing else?"

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi counted them one by one with her fingers, "Our family wants to buy a house, and my wife has made a lot of money. , Xiumu also has barbecue."

He looked at Wang Qingquan with a smile, "You said there are many happy things, our family is very happy every day!"

"Oh,"

Wang Qingquan nodded sadly . Just be happy."

Mu Chenxi: "Brother Wang, aren't you happy?"

He looked at Wang Qingquan curiously, "I miss you too, can you? Give it to your father and let him come to see you?"

"No, no need."

Wang Qingquan shook his head like a rattle. It would be better for his father to disappear. "He is very busy. Let's wait for Xiu Mu to go back and see him.

"Yes, your father is the county magistrate, so he must be very busy." Mu

Chenxi nodded in understanding and patted his shoulder comfortingly, "It's not easy for you either. You can't even see your father."

"Yes, he is very busy. " "I think."

Li Shaojie couldn't help but laugh, "His father is very jealous of him. Every time Xiu Mu goes back, he will treat him well. He is such a loving father, so enviable."

"Go, go, go ." Go."

Wang Qingquan pushed him away in anger, "You are envious. I can give it to you, no need to thank you."

"Hahaha"

Li Shaojie laughed loudly and said with a teasing look on his face. But if you don't have that kind of luck, you should enjoy your father's love."

"Tsk, tsk, tsk,"

Mu Chenxi said with disdain, "You are really unfilial. This father can give you whatever he wants. He didn't give birth to you and raise you. You?"

"I just taught you too much."

Wang Qingquan looked depressed and couldn't tell Mu Chenxi clearly. His father wanted to teach him by his ears, "Brother Mu, if you treat him as his son, you won't be of any use. In two days, he will kick you out of the house. "

"Why?"

Mu Chenxi asked in disbelief, "I am so good-looking, smart and popular, and I love reading and learning, so he would be willing to do it. Don't you want me as your son?"

"Uh."

Wang Qingquan was dumbfounded. Is he so boastful?

"You are inferior to me in every way. If you don't like me, it's still possible."

Mu Chenxi looked at him with contempt, did she think she didn't understand what he meant? Doesn't it mean that he is not good enough to be his father's son, as if no one cares about him?

"Hahaha."

Not only Li Shaojie laughed now, but several nearby students all laughed when they heard this. Mu Chenxi's retort was so good that it was impossible to refute.

Wang Qingquan's face was red and his neck was thick. His lips squirmed and moved a few times, but he didn't say anything. His original intention was that Mu Chenxi would be so lively and happy every day, and his father would definitely not understand it.

He would reprimand with a dark face: he has no rules, he doesn't know what etiquette is, and he treats people like grandsons.

"Forget it, my fault."

Wang Qingquan really didn't want to argue with Mu Chenxi. This guy always didn't follow the routine, and he might be left speechless in the end.

"There's nothing better than improving if you know your mistakes."

Mu Chenxi smiled, looking at his aggrieved look, and said kindly: "Have you always wanted to ask me why there is no such thing as my ranking?"

"Why?"

Wang Qingquan immediately stopped. Frustrated, he looked at Mu Chenxi with bright eyes, hoping to know why, "How come you are not ranked? Master, it is impossible for such an omission to happen."

Li Shaojie and several other students beside him also listened attentively . He stood there, not even daring to express his anger, for fear of disturbing Mu Chenxi.

This important matter has always been the focus of their attention. The master did not dare to ask questions easily, and Mu Chenxi found it difficult to ask questions here. At this moment, they all concentrated on waiting for Mu Chenxi to speak.

"I won't tell you, hahaha."

Seeing their expectant faces, Mu Chenxi snorted coldly in her heart, "I just won't tell you. I'll make you think about it every day, and your heart will always feel itchy."

"Ah?"

Wang Qingquan was dumbfounded, and others were also dumbfounded. What was Mu Chenxi doing? Is it deliberately to whet their appetite, or is there really a secret that they cannot know?

"Forget it, forget it."

Li Shaojie shook his head helplessly. This was the first time he met someone like Mu Chenxi. There was really nothing he could do. "Let's stop being curious. Sometimes knowing too much is not a good thing."

"Alas!"

Wang Qingquan looked discouraged, "I'm really convinced by Brother Mu. He looks like a gentle gentleman with a gentle and jade-like appearance, but his character is really unpredictable."

...

At noon, after Mu Chenxi finished eating, he went to see Amber and the others. Resting in the yard, he just turned around the canteen path and saw Chen Mingrui hesitating at the other end of the road.

"Master Chen."

"Huh?"

Chen Mingrui was startled. He was still thinking about whether to find Mu Chenxi, but unexpectedly he came, "Chenxi!"

He smiled awkwardly, his face turned red, and he said sheepishly: "I'm just looking for you, why don't you come and sit at my place?"

"Okay."

Mu Chenxi agreed readily. Seeing Chen Mingrui's frown, he asked, "Is there something embarrassing? You can tell me." , I can't help, and my wife is smarter than me."

"No, no, it's nothing, I just want to talk to you."

Chen Mingrui immediately denied that this matter is so troublesome to Zhao Huan. Mu Chenxi also has a childish nature, and he is extremely smart. He thinks less than others, and some things are always bloody.

They don't weigh the gains and losses of interests and proceed from the heart. Such people are best able to answer people's questions and directly point out the key to the problem.

He also doesn't have many good friends, and he has always been closest to Mu Chenxi.

Although Mu Chenxi has lost his memory now, Chen Mingrui is still Chen Mingrui's first choice to talk to others about his concerns.

Mu Chenxi looked at his expression as he walked and saw that his expression was changing back and forth, as if he was hesitant about something. He asked tentatively: "Are you short of money? We have it at home, so don't worry."

"Huh?"

Chen Mingrui heard this, He said dumbfounded: "No, why do you ask that?"

"If you get a wife, won't you have to spend money?"

When he talked about this with Zhao Huan yesterday, Zhao Huan said that if Chen Mingrui got married, he might need money, and she could lend it to him then.

"Could it be that Liu Shoubei regrets it?"

Mu Chenxi thought of what Zhao Huan said, and immediately frowned and said: "If he always gives up, I must teach him a lesson. Don't think that with a sword, there will be no one." Dare to provoke him."

He geared up, and if Chen Mingrui said yes, he would go find someone, "My wife said that I'm afraid of hurting myself for my friend, but it's okay to fight."

"Pfft. Hahaha."

Chen Mingrui was finally amused by him, and pointed at Mu Chenxi and said, "Where did you learn this? How come I haven't heard of doing anything for your friends?"

Mu Chenxi blinked and looked at him . No matter how sad he looked, he smiled and said: "My wife said it. He said that if you are short of money or in trouble, we all have to help. Friends are all at their own expense."

He put his hands on his back in embarrassment. Behind him, he said in a soft voice: "It hurts to have a knife stuck in your body! Isn't that stupid? My wife may be teasing me, but he won't let me stick the knife in."

Mu Chenxi thought of this . , I think it should be like this. Even if he really wanted to stab him, Zhao Huan would not let him go. How could he say this to him? He must be joking with him.

At that time, Zhao Huan was poking him to itch, but he just dodged and forgot to think about it. His eyes lit up and he understood immediately.

"What's wrong?"

Chen Mingrui saw him meditating silently, and suddenly his big bright eyes shone with happiness, knowing that he had figured it out, "Do you know why your wife said this?"

"I know."

Mu Chenxi was happy. Said: "He was joking with me, and he used an excuse to tickle me so that I had no time to think about it. My wife is so naughty."

"Hahaha."

Mu Chenxi said this, making Chen Mingrui's eyes burst into laughter. With tears in her eyes, "Yes, your wife is so naughty."

Chen Mingrui's heart was gone at this moment. He had already figured it out and secretly made a decision in his heart to be as happy as Mu Chenxi every day.

Arriving at Chen Mingrui's place, Mu Chenxi sat down and looked at the furnishings in the room. They were still a simple table, bed and cabinet, without any change.

"This is not possible, your place is too shabby."

He commented to Chen Mingrui, "The bed needs to be replaced with a new one, a double one, and there need to be more furnishings in the room. Why should Liu Shoubei's stay be more comfortable? "

It hasn't been decided yet."

Chen Mingrui's face was so red that he almost had a fever. Yesterday, he heard that Liu Qingfeng meant that, but there were some things that needed to be confirmed. He couldn't just shave his head and pick a hot head.

"Marriage is not that simple. I just found out yesterday that he is a county guard, officer!"

Chen Mingrui was hesitant. He thought about it all night last night and had many problems with Liu Qingfeng. The most important thing was Liu Qingfeng's posture. , he is the one below.

This is the biggest problem between them, more serious than the heirs. If they don't make the right choice, they won't have a future.

There are laws in Da Rong. Men and women can take the imperial examination, but they cannot become officials. He also wants to take the Jinshi exam again to make an effort to enter the official career.

If he is with Liu Qingfeng, this idea is destined to fail. This is his biggest obstacle at present, so he wants to talk to Mu Chenxi about his concerns.

"What's the point of being an official?"

Mu Chenxi still hesitated when she saw him, and couldn't help but roll her eyes at him, "Now that we're married, she's your wife, do you still want to treat her as an official and pay homage to her every time?"

You're really too cowardly. This was the first time Mu Chenxi saw Chen Mingrui like this. He was usually cheerful and smiling, but he looked like this now.

"No."

Chen Mingrui, who was squeezed by him, finally spoke and said helplessly: "Only one of us can pursue an official career. He is now a county guard and a fourth-rank official. How can he give up so easily."

Han Chuang studied hard . After many years, which student doesn't want to stand out. Especially him, he wants to show people that he, Chen Mingrui, can have a bright future with just one person.

He wanted those so-called relatives, as well as his clansmen and villagers to see that he had become successful and famous, and that one day he would be honored and honored.

"If there is a choice between an official and my wife, I will definitely choose my wife."

Mu Chenxi heard his troubles and said without a second thought: "My wife is the best, and I want to be the best to him. Nothing is as important as him."

He felt happy when he thought of Zhao Huan, and the smile on his face became brighter and sweeter. He said to Chen Mingrui, "Don't bother. If you have anything to discuss with Liu Shoubei, we can always find a solution. He has already thought of a way."

As soon as he said this, Liu Qingfeng, who had just arrived in front of Chen Mingrui's house, curved his lips. Indeed, he had already thought of it. Mu Chenxi was really smart.

Chapter 62

"Brother Liu."

Chen Mingrui sent Mu Chenxi away. When he turned around, he saw Liu Qingfeng standing not far behind him, and asked in surprise: "When did you come?"

He thought of what he had just said to Mu Chenxi, His face suddenly turned crimson, and Liu Qingfeng was so silent that he didn't know how much he heard.

"Just got here."

Liu Qingfeng saw the blush on his face and knew what he was thinking. He smiled slightly and said, "I saw your friend here, but I didn't dare to go in. His mouth is too big."

"Chen Xi is honest, he doesn't have too many bends . "Don't mind,"

Chen Mingrui said sheepishly, "You will know what he is like after we get along with him for a long time."

"Yeah."

Liu Qingfeng nodded, followed him into the room and sat down, looking directly into his eyes. He's a martial artist, and he doesn't have all those thoughts. It's just that he has never been able to say it directly. "

"Bah."

Chen Mingrui was embarrassed in his heart. He didn't say it directly. He really didn't make any preparations. , it's a good excuse.

He said that he was a warrior. After knowing him for such a long time, he had already discovered that he was both civil and military. How could he be so embarrassed to say these words.

"What about you?"

Seeing that he remained silent, Liu Qingfeng asked again.

Even if you already understand each other's feelings, you still need to give accurate words before you can say what's next.

"Me, me."

Chen Mingrui had never experienced this before, and when he asked him like this, he immediately hesitated, "It's okay, that's okay."

"Haha."

Liu Qingfeng saw his embarrassed look and stopped pursuing him . Reluctant, these words are enough, "Then we have settled, we are really happy!"

"Why are you the same as Chen Xi?"

Chen Mingrui looked at him funny when he heard what he said, "If It would be a good thing to be like Chen Xi, and I will be happy all day long."

"Yes, I will,"

Liu Qingfeng said forcefully, "I will take care of everything by myself, and I won't let you make any choices. Don't worry. "

......

" Wife."

When Mu Chenxi saw Zhao Huan, she told him what happened to Chen Mingrui today. "Brother Mingrui is in a difficult situation. This matter is not easy to handle!"

Zhao Huan looked at him! Worried about Chen Mingrui, he raised his eyebrows and said, "Leave it to Liu Shoubei. He should have considered these things long ago so that Brother Chen doesn't have to worry."

"Don't you have to worry?"

Mu Chenxi asked with surprise in her eyes, "Would he be inappropriate? " Official, are you willing to let Brother Mingrui take the scientific examination? "

" Just don't tell the public."

Zhao Huan looked at Mu Chenxi with a smile, isn't this the case in modern times, as long as the two of them are happy, who cares, "Quietly, no . Just let people know."

"Some things are suitable to be done quietly. You don't have to look at the process, just look at the results."

Zhao Huan said with deep meaning, "As long as we don't let each other down, it will work no matter what. I'm afraid, people are fickle, and the gain is not worth the loss."

"That must be Liu Shoubei's failure. Brother Mingrui will never do it."

Mu Chenxi said firmly: "We all know what he is like, and he will never do such a thing. I'm still thinking of giving up the imperial examination."

Mu Chenxi could tell that Chen Mingrui hesitated because of this.

The reason why he asked Chen Mingrui to discuss with Liu Qingfeng was because he wanted to know Liu Qingfeng's opinion and let Chen Mingrui see clearly the other person's character.

If you ask someone you care about to give up their future for you, and you don't have to pay at all, then there is no need to be together.

"There are no absolutes in anything. Who knows when people will change."

Zhao Huan smiled, with a somewhat disapproving attitude. "In the face of fame and wealth, and in the face of a bright future, how many people can stick to their hearts!"

"I Yes."

Mu Chenxi sensitively noticed Zhao Huan's change and hurriedly approached her with a smile, "Nothing is more important than my wife, and no matter how she changes, I will always be your wife, Mu Chenxi!"

"I like my wife the most ! My daughter-in-law also likes me the most. This will never change. What will happen if the others change?"

Mu Chenxi blinked her big eyes and tried to be cute to Zhao Huan, "I will always be Mu Chenxi. I won't become another person, won't my wife?"

"Yes, I won't change."

Zhao Huan's words froze for a moment, and he shook his head and stopped thinking about it. Mu Chenxi was right, " No matter how you change, you are still Mu Chenxi, that's enough!"

The atmosphere was quiet for a moment, Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan silently without saying anything, his eyes became deeper and deeper, becoming thoughtful.

Zhao Huan looked at the desolate scene on both sides of the road, with the yellow and fallen branches and leaves, but it did not affect his mood at all, just because of Mu Chenxi's words.

No matter at any time, no matter how he changes, he is still Mu Chenxi, and he is still Mu Chenxi who likes Zhao Huan. What else does he have to worry about.

"Daughter-in-law."

"Huh?"

Zhao Huan woke up from his reverie when Mu Chenxi called him, turned his head and met a pair of dark and deep eyes, which could not be seen at a glance, as if they contained thousands of words.

"Are you afraid that I will remember the past?"

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan and carefully observed the emotions in his eyes, "Those are not important, I don't want to think about it. Even if I think about it, I am still the same person I am now, so don't worry anymore, okay? ?"

He seemed to be making a promise, and he was also guaranteeing, "I am Mu Chenxi, and Mu Chenxi is who I am, and I will never change. Wife, please remember not to let go!

" Acting coquettishly and trying to please, Zhao Huan finally made Zhao Huan laugh, "Okay, okay, I've remembered everything, don't make any more trouble."

Zhao Huan was so entangled by him that he had no choice but to compromise and obey him, "I I won't think about these things anymore, I just want to make money and live happily, okay?"

"Okay."

Mu Chenxi nodded immediately, smiling brightly, "My wife is obedient, I am really happy!"

......

In a blink of an eye, it was Xiu Mu again. When Mu Chenxi heard the bell ringing for the end of class, she was the first to pick up the small book box and ran out. She jumped happily and went all the way.

"Brother Mu, why is this so urgent?"

Wang Qingquan saw his posture and looked at Li Shaojie in confusion.

"Catch up and ask."

Li Shaojie said angrily that he was really a pig who only cared about eating but not about beating.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm here."

Mu Chenxi stopped as soon as he walked out of the academy door. Zhao Huan didn't let him run too fast, so he strode over.

"Yes."

Zhao Huan looked at him with a smile, "I have already agreed with Yaren that we will go to see the house now."

"Okay, we will go now."

Mu Chenxi looked excited, "After we moved, I will help my wife draw, so you don't have to work so hard."

"Okay, let's make the ornaments together."

Zhao Huan said with a smile. Mu Chenxi felt sorry for his hard work, and his hands were gradually getting rough. I wanted to help him draw pictures for the wood carvings, how could he let him down?

Mu Chenxi's paintings are spiritual and can almost be mistaken for real ones. They are much better than his, which is why he agreed.

The house they want to see is in the first alley at the entrance of the town. Standing at the entrance of the alley, they can see Mu Chenxi and his academy.

"Mr. Zhao's family, Mu Juren."

Yaren saw them coming and rushed to greet them.

"This alley is good. The road is very wide and paved with bluestones. It won't be muddy on rainy days."

Zhao Huan took a look at the entrance of the alley and nodded with satisfaction, "I remember that this alley is actually a family, with a total of three houses. "

Yes."

Yaren pointed to the two houses to the east and said, "The two houses on this side are for two brothers, and the old house on the opposite side is for sale."

"Is this old house for sale too?" Zhao Huan asked .

He remembered Yaren saying that he didn't want to buy such a big house at that time, so he didn't ask about the old house.

"Yes, it was just sold."

Yaren said with a happy smile: "Someone just saw it before you came and bought it."

Business was good today. The house that had been in the backlog for almost a year was sold at once. .

There were very few people looking at the big house. He thought he was going to keep it in his hands, but he didn't expect people from outside to buy it.

"That's it."

Zhao Huan frowned slightly. He didn't want to recruit more people before, so he moved Mu Chenhui and the others over and didn't talk about the mansion. But now he wanted to but in vain.

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan and then at the old house. It was the size of the two houses put together. There was no need to pay for this old house.

Yaren opened the door of the first house and said: "The two houses are about the same size and have similar layouts. The only difference is some furnishings and scenery."

As soon as you enter, there is a screen wall, and around the screen wall is a long corridor. The yard is not big. It is small, and there are some landscape paintings of mountains and rocks on both sides of the corridor. It seems that many flowers and plants were planted in the past.

At first glance, Zhao Huan is different from ordinary farmhouses. All the layout and construction are the work of a wealthy family, and it looks very grand.

There are seven main rooms, with the main room in the middle and suites on both sides. The remaining two rooms are located on both sides and are single rooms.

There are eight wing rooms, which are enough for whatever he does. After looking at them, he no longer worries about the old house.

The backyard is larger than the front yard. There is a small pond with remaining lotus leaves in it. It looks like a small garden.

There is also a small stone pavilion, where you can enjoy the shade and enjoy the scenery in the backyard when you have nothing to do. The layout is as clever as that of a high-end mansion.

"Not bad."

Zhao Huan nodded, "How much money does this house cost?"

After just a quick look, Zhao Huan decided to buy it. He saw that Mu Chenxi also liked it very much. He looked at it and looked very happy.

"Daughter-in-law, there is a door there."

Mu Chenxi pointed to one side of the courtyard wall. There was a small corner door there, which was still open.

"That's the corner gate that connects the two houses. There's also one in the front yard. It's easier for brothers to come and go."

Yaren took a look and said, "The brothers in this family have a better relationship. Now they all moved to the county town. I heard that they also bought the same house. There are two houses next to each other."

"Let's go take a look."

Mu Chenxi said, lying in Zhao Huan's ear, "Daughter-in-law, these two houses together are as big as that old house. We can buy them both.

"Okay." When

Zhao Huan heard what he said, he knew that he could see his upset mood, and his heart became warmer. "Let's go and take a look."

Chapter 63

"Master, you are back."

As soon as Zhao Huan entered the shop, he saw a pair of expectant eyes. He asked with some confusion: "What's wrong? Is there anything wrong?"

"Did you buy the house?"

Mu Chen Hui was the first to ask: "How much money do you want? Have you agreed?"

"Brother, they are happy for us."

Mu Chenxi glanced at Zhao Huan and smiled: "Tell them quickly."

Zhao Huan raised the corners of his lips. He smiled and said: "I bought it. I bought two houses. They are adjacent to each other. There are corner doors in the front and back yards, so it is very convenient to go back and forth."

"Two?"

Mu Chenyu was surprised, "How much money does it cost?"

"Can you take it? ?"

Mu Chenxing patted him with a smile, "Just wait to see the new house of the host family."

"Alas!"

He looked at his clan members and Mu Chenhui brothers and sighed: " This is the first time in our village that someone has bought a house in the town! Everyone is concerned about it and has been waiting for you to come back and ask about the situation so that you can brag about it. "

"Not only do we live in this house, but you also share in it,"

Zhao Huan laughed . It's the fault of poverty. "We live in a house and leave one for you. We will move there to learn sculpture in the future. If there are people who don't want to go home, they can live there. There are more than ten rooms."

"Really ." "

Mu Chenyu stepped forward, his face flushed with excitement, "Can I live there? I want to live in a house in the town to see how it is different from the courtyard in our village."

"Of course . It's different."

Mu Chenxi stretched out her finger and hit him on the forehead, knocking Mu Chenyu back a few steps, covering his forehead to dodge, "What you bought is a house, and what you bought in the village is a courtyard. Use your brain and think about it. It's the same."

"It cost a lot of money, right?"

Mu Chenhui asked, "The house must be like that of a wealthy family, with a screen wall inside."

"It's not too expensive, three hundred and fifty. " Two."

Zhao Huan said, this is a town after all, and it would be good to buy a house in the county. "There are rockery and stone pavilions in it. There is a garden with a small pond in the backyard, where you can plant lotus and fish."

Hey!"

Mu Chenyu raised his hand weakly, "I can take a look at the house. Don't worry, boss, I guarantee that everything is in stock and tidied up."

As soon as he said this, everyone else's eyes lit up, seeing someone there. He wanted to step forward, but Mu Chenxing scolded him: "We'll see tomorrow. Why don't you pack your things and close the shop quickly."

The shopkeeper showed his power, and no one dared to disobey. They all dispersed and went to do whatever they were supposed to do.

"Are you going to clean up the house tomorrow?" Mu Chenhui asked.

"It will be packed tomorrow."

Zhao Huan nodded, "The furniture ordered for the carpenter's shop has been prepared and we will move it there together. We also need to order some more." After

he finished speaking, he turned to look at Mu Chenxing and said: "The shop will be here in the future. I'll leave it to you. We won't come over if nothing happens. You can keep one of the two rooms in the back for guests, and use the other one as your usual resting place."

"I understand,"

Mu Chenxing said with a smile . : "I will make arrangements, don't worry, boss."

...

Early the next morning, Mu Yixuan welcomed a large group of people. Three bullock carts were parked outside, and Dad Mu got out of the car.

"You guys wait a minute, I'll go find Chen Xi to lead the way."

Mu Dad said and reached out to knock on the door, but Mu Chenxing beat him to it, "I'll knock."

Liu Chengxin opened the shop door and was startled by the darkness outside. , if it weren't for the shopkeepers and them being there, he would have thought something had happened.

"Dad."

Mu Chenxi was called out and asked happily when he saw his father: "You came to see me again."

"Yes."

Mu's father looked at his smiling face and touched his head happily, "Dad came to see you. , I'll help you clean up the house and get it settled for you all."

"Thank you, Dad."

Mu Chenxi looked at the clan members happily, "There are so many here!"

"They're all here to help. Let's take a look at the house you bought. ."

Dad Mu's face was as happy as a blooming chrysanthemum, and his eyes narrowed when he smiled, "Hurry up and lead us over, hurry up and pack it up for you."

"Let's go there first."

Zhao Huan saw so many people . , it's about the 20th or 30th, and the place is small and can't accommodate them, so we'll talk about it over there.

.........

"Oh my god!"

"My mother!"

When the Mu clan members saw the house that Zhao Huan and the others bought, they couldn't help but sigh: It's really a place where a wealthy family lives, with mountains, water and beautiful scenery.

Everyone's eyes were wide open. Some of them had been to wealthy people's houses and had heard about it. Now when they saw that it was really what they heard, they were extremely excited.

Not only did they see it with their own eyes, but they also bought it from their own tribe, and it would become popular in several nearby villages in the future.

"Dad, what is this?"

Mu Chenxi pointed to a few bags they brought, "What's in it? Why are there so many."

"Your mother steamed dry food and brought some vegetables."

Mu Dad He said: "You are busy there, so we won't bother you. Just make something to eat here at noon."

Zhao Huan smiled and said nothing when he saw this scene. This was impossible, but he was very happy with Mu's father's intentions. .

He saw the members of the Mu clan, looking around and starting to clean without being asked. Their movements were neat and tidy, and they were worthy of being people who often worked.

"You guys go back."

Dad Mu urged them, "As long as your elder brother is here, after cleaning, let him bring back the household items you ordered. You will definitely be able to stay tonight."

He looked at Zhao Huan, He smiled and said: "I went to the clan leader last night and showed you the dates. Today is the best day this month. I will find more people to come over and I will definitely let you stay here tonight."

"Then come and stay today."

Zhao Huan said with a smile . : "There are so many people, so we can celebrate our move."

.........

"Daughter-in-law, you go and do your work, I will take care of the moving."

When they arrived at the door of Muyixuan, Mu Chenxi pushed Zhao Huan into the shop, "Don't worry , It can be done."

He patted his chest confidently, "After the arrangements are made, I will take my wife home."

"Okay, I'll leave it all to you."

Zhao Huan shouldn't dampen his enthusiasm. He wanted to learn how to do it, and said worriedly: "Take Xinyue and Zhang Hui and ask them to help you."

"Yes, I understand."

Mu Chenxi smiled slightly, knowing that Zhao Huan was worried, in front of He called Mu Xinyue and the others in front of him, "Let's go shopping with me."

"Want to buy groceries?"

Mu Xinyue said, "Dad brought them, and said I wouldn't let you take care of them."

"You are the only one who has a lot to do. You are eating meat here yourself, while your dad is eating vegetables?"

Mu Chenxi glared at her, Turning around and looking at Zhao Huan gently, "Daughter-in-law, I'm leaving."

"Well, I'll wait for you to come back."

Zhao Huan said with a smile. Mu Chenxi taught people a lesson, which was quite scary to others, especially those eyes. , leaving you unable to distinguish ideas.

"My third brother is like a man who changes his face. His face can change in the blink of an eye."

Mu Xinyue was unhappy after being lectured, and muttered to Zhang Hui, but unfortunately no one paid attention and pretended not to hear.

"The shopkeeper, order a few banquet tables."

Mu Chenxi came to Hongxiang Restaurant, "Five tables, two tables will be sent to Muyi Xuan, and three tables will be sent to Plum Blossom Alley."

"Third brother, why do you need so many?"

Mu Xin Yue Yi heard that there were so many banquets and how much money it cost, "Our father said that you won't let you spend more money."

"Talk, you are moving today, and dad and the others have worked hard, so you are short of these silvers, and you don't even have a banquet. " ?"

Mu Chenxi turned around and glared at her, and said with a straight face: "Your brother-in-law asked you to buy more good food, but you, as a daughter, are reluctant to part with it. This is unfilial."

"How can I be unfilial? I'm not thinking about you!"

Mu Xinyue was aggrieved and muttered quietly with her head lowered, but she didn't see the flash of smile in Mu Chenxi's eyes.

"Okay, let's go to the carpenter's shop and order some household items."

Mu Chenxi ordered the banquet and then turned to the carpenter's shop, "Master Yang, we will bring the household items back today."

"Mu Juren."

Master Yang said with a smile: " It's all done. Tell me the address and I'll send it to you."

"Thank you, Master Yang."

Mu Chenxi raised her hand and said with a smile, "I still need to order some household items. My wife has already written them on it. Let's see when it can be ready."

Master Yang took it and took a look. In addition to some household items for the main room, there are only a few beds, tables, cabinets and the like. "It will take about half a month. There are many beds, tables and cabinets, so it will cost a lot. Take some time."

"Okay."

Mu Chenxi nodded and looked at some tables and chairs for dining. "How can I sell these? I want three tables and chairs for dining."

Mu Xinyue was about to stop her, but she was glared at again. Going back, "There will be more and more people in the shop in the future. Don't you want to use it for eating? There are so many people eating today, so I just want to buy it back first, so as not to have no place to put the banquet."

"Yeah?"

Mu Xinyue was stunned. Isn't his third brother mentally ill? Why is it so useful now? He doesn't look like a child anymore, his face is just like the serious and old-fashioned nerd from before.

.........

"Daughter-in-law."

As soon as Zhao Huan left the carving room, he saw Mu Chenxi standing at the door and looking at him with a smile, "Why are you back?"

"I'm having dinner with my wife."

Mu Chenxi pulled him. He held his hand and said happily: "I've made all the arrangements for dad's side. Don't worry, there's still eldest brother there."

Zhao Huan glanced at Mu Chenxi strangely, "Why don't we go? There are so many people here. The clansmen are all here to help us, and your father is here, why don't we even have a meal with you?"

Looking at Zhao Huan's confused eyes, Mu Chenxi smiled sweetly and said with an affectionate look: "Ten Days. I only have a day off before I can have lunch with my wife. Can you please accompany me?"

"You!"

Zhao Huan saw that it was noon and wanted to go to the house to entertain, but now he saw Mu Chenxi. Being so obsessed and so soft-hearted, nothing suddenly mattered.

"Okay, I'll have lunch with you, just the two of us."

Zhao Huan was helpless. Mu Chenxi always had this ability to make everything about him change all the time, but he liked it very much and was very happy with it.

Seeing that his attitude softened, Mu Chenxi stepped forward and put her arms around his shoulders, looking at Zhao Huan with gentle eyes, "Daughter-in-law, we are going to have a family, our own home."

"We will live there well from now on, I I will make ornaments with you every day and every night."

Mu Chenxi's eyes were clear and soft, her voice was soft and low, and she whispered in Zhao Huan's ear, "Daughter-in-law, don't worry anymore. "What I can't remember will always be me!"

"Yeah, I know, I won't think about it anymore."

Zhao Huan suddenly let go of his strength and sensitivity. His eyes were so sore that he put his head on it. Mu Chenxi felt the warmth on her shoulders.

At this moment, he was extremely transparent. Everything in the past had passed, now was a new beginning, and he had a new future.

People don't need to worry about themselves, they should grasp the present, cherish the present, look forward to the future, and make efforts for it.

Life is like a boat on the sea. Only by grasping the direction and the helmsman can you reach the other shore.

Many factors are needed, including luck. At this moment, he feels that he is extremely lucky to meet someone who cares about him like Mu Chenxi.

Chapter 64

"Daughter-in-law, it's great!"

After a busy day, Mu Chenxi lay on the bed extremely satisfied. He turned sideways and looked at Zhao Huan with gentle eyes through the bright moonlight through the window lattice.

"It's just the two of us, no one else."

He stretched out his hand from the quilt, grabbed Zhao Huan's hand, and said: "Daughter-in-law, do you think it's better for me to sell ornaments with you in the future, or to be a wife?

"You don't want to study anymore?" Zhao

Huan opened his eyes and looked at Mu Chenxi strangely. He didn't know why he said this. "Why do you think so?"

"I don't want my wife to work too hard."

Mu Chenxi rubbed him . His hands were getting rougher and rougher, "Our whole family is counting on you, I feel sorry for you."

"No need."

Zhao Huan smiled happily: "I'm not working hard, I feel good and fulfilling."

"Alas!"

Mu Chenxi sighed inwardly. He said, "Daughter-in-law, I won't take the imperial examination. There is no use studying. I will study with the teacher for a while and I won't go after the New Year."

"But."

Zhao Huan almost said what you can do when you come back. Fortunately, it was in time. He stopped what he was about to say, "Come back if you want to, and do whatever you like. Whether you are at home or as a wife, I will support you."

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi smiled slightly, held Zhao Huan's hand, "Thank you, wife. I'll figure out what to do."

"Well, don't worry, our family is not short of money."

The smile on Zhao Huan's face is getting deeper and deeper. He now understands Mu Chenxi's thoughts, which is to support the family and make money. He shared that he never thought such a day would come.

Under the night, the cold moonlight shone into the window lattice, and the two people slept soundly on the bed, with their heads touching each other and the corners of their lips slightly curved, full of happy smiles.

.........

The middle of winter is coming, the cold wind is biting, and everyone is wearing winter clothes.

It's the end of the month in a blink of an eye, and today is another monthly exam.

Mu Chenxi's mind was not on this. He was looking at the hat on his head in front of Zhao Huan's beautifully carved dressing mirror.

"Daughter-in-law, it's so beautiful."

He grabbed the big fur ball in the middle of the hat, and the soft feel was very good. "

It's so soft and warm." Mu Chenxi's eyebrows were curved, and her handsome face was filled with a sweet smile. Zhao Huan knitted it for him stitch by stitch, as well as the scarf and gloves.

Every day when he studied at night, Zhao Huan stayed with him, taking needles and threads he had never seen before and knitting these things for him bit by bit.

"Put on the scarf."

Zhao Huan dressed him up, with warmth everywhere from head to toe. "If I don't tell you, take off your mask and hat. You still have the scarf on, and change your gloves to bare fingers."

"Yes, I understand." Mu

Chenxi took a big sip on Zhao Huan's face when he wasn't paying attention, blinking like a cat with only two big eyes exposed. , showing full of pride.

"You!"

Zhao Huan was not prepared for his sneak attack. He was wearing a mask and kissed him on the face, "Who did you learn this from? You are still like a child."

"I am a child."

Mu Chenxi said proudly. Circle on the ground, walking around Zhao Huan, smiling cheerfully, "But I'm not stupid."

"Hahaha."

Zhao Huan laughed at his amusement, stayed with him for a while, and then grabbed him, "Don't make trouble. , quickly get dressed and go to the academy. "

...

Mu Chenxi walked into the Juyuan, and immediately received countless looks. He walked into the school with his head held high and stopped in front of his seat.

Looking at the students who were looking at him, he slowly took off his hat and mask one by one, his red cheeks were full of smiles, "Good morning, classmates."

He gave a big smile, and then in front of the surprised people He sat down with his eyes in mind, took out his books and pens, and put on gloves with five fingers exposed.

The more Mu Chenxi looked at it, the happier she became. She raised her hand and rubbed it against her cheek. It was so soft and warm. My wife is so wonderful.

Jiang Haohai came in and was startled when he saw Mu Chenxi's big smiling face. The red blush made Mu Chenxi look even more handsome.

The child became more and more handsome as he grew older. Without the heroic look between his brows, he would be like a little baby with delicate brows, softness and cuteness.

"Ahem."

Jiang Haohai coughed a few times, "Today's monthly exam, all students must carefully review the questions. This time, we will select a few students to participate in the joint examination of the county school and other colleges."

His words caused a commotion among the students. The joint entrance examination is a good opportunity to become famous, and you can also take advantage of this opportunity to meet many talented people.

There are joint entrance examinations in spring and autumn every year. You have to go to Fucheng to refer to them. You can also visit the Imperial College in Fucheng.

However, in the past, all counties and schools participated. How come there are also academies joining now? The scope has expanded, and they also have the opportunity to fight for it.

The test papers were handed out one by one. Mu Chenxi still reviewed the questions carefully. He read the questions first, then wrote quickly, and quickly answered the test papers.

After getting Jiang Haohai's consent, he handed in the paper early, dressed neatly, and ran away happily with a bag of things in his arms.

Jiang Haohai looked at his cheerful back and knew that he was looking for Jiang An. This little guy said yesterday that he wanted to give them something. It seemed that it was what he wore on his head, as well as the things on his hands and neck.

There was no calm on his face, but he was extremely happy in his heart. It was such a joy to have the younger generation pay filial piety.

Especially the big ball on Mu Chenxi's head pleased Jiang Haohai, and he was already laughing in his heart.

The soft ball dangled on Mu Chenxi's head, adding a touch of playfulness to him, as cute as a child, and also brought joy to others.

That set of things not only looks warm, but also makes people feel softer for no reason. It must be another new thing that Zhao Huan came up with.

.........

"Brother Mu."

While eating in the canteen at noon, Wang Qingquan looked at Mu Chenxi and said, "Are you taking the joint entrance examination?"

Li Shaojie couldn't help turning his head and glanced at him. This was because his curiosity had not subsided and he was ready to take the exam again. Mention the monthly exam rankings.

"I won't go."

Mu Chenxi shook his head. He didn't have time to go to Fucheng. It would be so far away and he wouldn't be able to see Zhao Huan for a long time. "If you want to go, just go. You can also take this opportunity to have fun."

"What about the joint examination? " "

Liu Wenqing asked curiously, "Why haven't I heard that the county school has a joint examination? When will our college participate in the joint examination?"

"You are in Class B, so you don't need to take part ?" You know so much."

Wang Qingquan got to know him well, and his words were not as polite as usual, "I'm just waiting for others to go, so you will naturally be further away."

"Where should you go to take the joint entrance examination? Is it in each academy? ?"

Liu Wenqing asked curiously, not paying attention to his words. This was the first time he heard about it.

"We are going to Fucheng Imperial College."

Wang Qingquan shook his head, "We don't have to think about it, we can't go there at all." The fact

that he can study in Class B is the result of the Academy's special care. If it were him, he might not even be able to have his place in Class B. , which is why his father always teaches him a lesson with a dark face.

"Our mountain chief is a famous scholar, and there are several old masters who are also famous scholars. Otherwise, how could he participate in the joint examination."

Li Shaojie said slowly from the side, "I don't know how many academies and how many students are there at this time. Thank you to our mountain chief!"

"It's really amazing!"

Liu Wenqing sighed: "Now there are many students from poor families participating. Their knowledge is no worse than others, but their family background cannot support them to study in the county."

Zhang Cheng looked at Liu Wenqing and said . He lowered his head and continued eating, thinking that what he said was right. I don't know how many children from poor families would get the opportunity this time.

This is their opportunity to make a name for themselves and soar into the sky. I believe they will be even more grateful to Shan Zhang. Even if you can't get what you want, it would be nice to see the Imperial College that students want in their hearts!

"Brother Mu."

Wang Qingquan turned to Mu Chenxi again, "Why don't you participate? How can you have a place because you are so smart?"

"I don't want to take the imperial examination, so why should I participate?"

Mu Chenxi Looking at Wang Qingquan strangely, why is this man still so stupid and not making any progress at all, "You should fight for it, after all, it is good for you."

"That is, who will do the things that are not good for you."

Mu Jingxing said to He was dissatisfied with the fact that he always disturbed Mu Chenxi when he was eating. "You know my third uncle is smart, so you shouldn't persuade him to go. Otherwise, why would you have anything to do with him?"

"Smart."

Mu Chenxi smiled and rubbed his head, "We Even Jing Xing knows this, why can't you understand it?"

"Uh."

Wang Qingquan was dumbfounded, and suddenly became depressed again after being scolded by the uncle and nephew. Why do people with the surname Mu have this kind of behavior?

Seeing that he was defeated again, Liu Wenqing finally became kind-hearted and said to Mu Chenxi: "Brother Mu, we are all curious about why you are not ranked. Is it convenient to tell you?" "

It's convenient!"

Mu Chenxi looked at Wang Qingquan and smiled, "I am. There's nothing you can't say when joking with Brother Wang."

He took out his handkerchief and wiped his mouth and said, "I'm just studying in the academy. If I don't take the imperial examination, I won't be included in the academy's quota. Naturally, I won't participate in the rankings."

Mu Chenxi looked at them . They glanced at each other and said with a smile: "Now you know, I won't take part in the joint entrance examination, so you can go for it with peace of mind. Even if it doesn't work this time, there will be next time. As long as you work hard, you will always have a chance. Don't be discouraged!

" , not to mention Wang Qingquan, even Li Shaojie and Liu Wenqing were dumbfounded and didn't understand why this happened.

How could such a thing happen? This was beyond their wildest dreams, beyond their expectations, and beyond their previous knowledge.

They looked at each other for a moment, not knowing what to say. Mu Chenxi had already made it clear. Even if he still had doubts, it seemed that he shouldn't ask at this moment.

In the end, Wang Qingquan couldn't hold it in anymore and asked: "If you don't take the imperial examination, how can the academy accept you? This is impossible."

How is this possible? Why study without taking the imperial examination? Isn't this a joke? How could the academy allow you? This happened.

"You're so awesome, don't be too envious! You can't compare, hahaha."

Mu Chenxi looked at him with a look of disbelief on his face, and hit him again, "This is the treatment for being smart, this is the reward for being talented. An honor for talented people."

Mu Chenxi put on a hat, a mask, gloves, and a long scarf, waved her hands to the dumbfounded people, and turned around, leaving them in a daze.

Only Mu Jingxing and Zhang Cheng followed him and asked about his outfit, which made Mu Chenxi feel a little regretful. The blow was so severe that Wang Qingquan and the others didn't bother to ask themselves about these things. It was so depressing to be unable to show off as a wife!

Chapter 65

"Chenxi."

Zhao Huan saw Mu Chenxi coming out of the academy. His mood was not very high and he was not as happy as before. "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"No."

Mu Chenxi's eyes were heavy, dark and calm like a pool of stagnant water, making it difficult to see. Despite his emotions, Zhao Huan could feel something strange.

He pulled Mu Chenxi's hand over. Mu Chenxi usually liked to hold his hand, and coaxed in a gentle voice: "Who made Chenxi unhappy? I want to know who the bad guy is."

The corners of Mu Chenxi's mouth slowly turned upward. Qiao, even if there is a slight change in himself, Zhao Huan can keenly feel that this is because his heart is focused on him.

"I'm fine, I just want to think about something."

He lowered his head and looked at Zhao Huan's hands. Seeing that he was not wearing gloves, and seeing that there was nothing on his head and neck, he hurriedly took off his gloves and said,

"Daughter-in-law, take off your gloves." Put on the gloves."

Mu Chenxi took Zhao Huan's hand and put on the gloves one by one. "It's cold, don't look at me all the time."

He was annoyed when he saw that Zhao Huan was not wearing anything. Guang was busy thinking, "I want to make some money to spend with my wife."

"Oh."

Zhao Huan saw that he finally spoke, and then she felt relieved, "Put on those fingerless gloves and hold your fingers in the palm of your hand.

"Well, it's all up to my wife." Mu

Chenxi looked away from her previous expression and smiled, "Guess, how do I want to make money?"

"Is it a hat or gloves?

" That sly smile came to his senses instantly, "If you, a scholar, want to do business, don't forget your reputation as a civil servant."

"It's not me who does it, let the villagers do it."

Mu Chenxi didn't expect Zhao Huan to react like this. Come on, he just wanted to hide his thoughts just now, so he pretended to let Zhao Huan guess.

While taking off his scarf, he said: "This is not conflicting at all. It can also allow the tribe and village neighbors to earn some money, and it can also be regarded as giving them a contract."

This was the case in ancient times. We can never do without our family and friends. For tribesmen, one person can ascend to heaven by attaining the Tao of chickens and dogs, which is especially applicable here.

Zhao Huan already had a relatively thorough understanding. At the same time, thinking about the simple and poor Mu clan and villagers, he thought it would be good to help them.

"Okay, you can do whatever you want. I don't have any objections."

Just as he was about to speak again, Mu Chenxi put a scarf on his neck, "I have a hat, and my wife wears the scarf."

"Yeah."

Zhao Huan He nodded and refused to refuse to Mu Chenxi. Now he felt warm both physically and mentally, all of which Mu Chenxi had given him.

"Tell me if you have something, and we will find a solution together."

Zhao Huan asked him: "Think things through first, don't be too anxious, take your time step by step, and plan things carefully to avoid mistakes."

Mu Chenxi listened carefully . He knew that Zhao Huan's words were all for his own sake. He was not impatient at all and his eyes were full of smiles.

Zhao Huan taught him some business matters in great detail, including some intrigues and intrigues in the business field, as well as competition.

"You may not be used to it at first, just get used to it slowly."

Zhao Huan thought for a while and gave Mu Chenxi some encouragement, "We Chenxi are smart and can do these things well. You will always be the best."

"Well, I'm the smartest and the best."

Mu Chenxi's smile deepened. Zhao Huan really regarded himself as a child, but he liked it. As long as Zhao Huan was happy, he could be a child in Zhao Huan's eyes for the rest of his life.

At the same time, Zhao Huan was also happy in his heart. He believed that a person's essential skill is to be able to make money. No matter who you are or what your status is, you can't live without food or drink.

At the same time, you have to take care of your family, lover, and children. Nothing in the world can be done without money. This is the basis for a person's survival.

.........

"My boss."

Mu Chenxing saw Zhao Huan come in and stood up to greet him. When he saw Mu Chenxi, he was startled and didn't recognize him for a moment.

"My cousin doesn't recognize me anymore."

Mu Chenxi took off his mask with a smile, shook the big fur ball on his head and said with a smile: "Am I good-looking? My wife knitted it for me."

"Good-looking, good-looking."

Mu Chenxing "Haha" he said with a smile, "Our Chenxi is the most beautiful, and our boss has the most skillful hands."

Zhao Huan watched Mu Chenxi boasting about himself, but smiled and let him show off. Seeing Mu Chenxi like this, he was also happy .

"Come in and sit down."

Mu Chenxing's daughter-in-law came over. She was here to help with the cooking. "It's cold outside, you guys come over and make a light of the fire."

She said and brought a charcoal basin to Zhao Huan and the others, and was busy pouring tea for the guests. , is a smart and capable woman. "Sister-in-law, stop being busy, we

are here to find you." Mu Chenxi stopped her and stopped her from rushing back and forth. "We have something to do with you." "What's the matter?" Upon hearing this , the sister-in-law wiped her hands and came over to sit down. Next, "If you have something to do with my boss and your third cousin, just tell me. As long as I can do it, I will never refuse." Zhao Huan said nothing and left the court to Mu Chenxi to see how he operates, while he will be on the sidelines to check it. "Do you think my hat looks good to the lobby sister-in-law?" Mu Chenxi took off the hat on her head and handed it to her to see. Then she pointed at the scarf and gloves Zhao Huan was wearing, "What do you think of these?" "It looks good." The lobby sister-in-law said He held it in his hand and looked at it carefully, and then looked at the scarf and gloves that Zhao Huan was wearing, and praised: "My boss is really skillful. He made it nice and warm. I have never seen it before." "It's just because I have never seen it before. It's nice and warm. , I just came to see you." Mu Chenxi said about selling hats, scarves and gloves, "Let the tribesmen and villagers learn together. We will provide them with the wages and make some money for the family." "Okay! " The lobby sister-in-law clapped her hands happily and said, "Now I can make more money and live a good year. I will go back to the village tomorrow to talk about it and see how many people are willing to learn." "Okay," Mu Chenxi said with a smile. This matter must be kept secret and cannot be exposed. If others learn about it, our village will not make any money." "Don't worry, third cousin, I will do this well," the hall sister promised, "I will gather them together. They are not allowed to take the things back for knitting, so they don't have to worry about it." "There's no guarantee," Zhao Huan suddenly said, "That thread is the cotton thread I bought for sewing clothes, and I twisted it together into thick thread. "The needles are wooden needles. You can tell at a glance that you can knit at home once you learn the needlework." "Actually, it doesn't matter." Mu Chenxi thought for a while, "Sign a contract with them and set the terms." Listing it should ensure that they will not be leaked. "

"That's good. If they weave it themselves and sell it for nothing, they're afraid that one by one the news will leave the village and the marriage will be chaotic."

Mu Chenxing also gave an idea, "It's best to ask the clan leader and village chief to come forward and let them get married." It will be better if they restrain themselves."

Zhao Huan couldn't help but smile when he saw them trying to find a solution. They are all hard-working people, so they will never make mistakes in the future.

Seeing that Mu Chenxi and the others were almost done with their discussion, he gave them another reminder, "I'll ask my eldest brother to help make the wooden needles. It's best to go to the county to buy a batch of cotton threads. The price will be much cheaper."

Zhao Huan looked at Mu Chen Xi said, "Calculate the cost of using wires. It's best to divide them into different grades, which can be sold to different groups of people."

"Is it the difference between common people, some wealthy families, and wealthy families?"

Mu Chenxi immediately understood what he meant. Meaning, "Daughter-in-law, you said that men and women have different styles, and colors and patterns need to be classified, so naturally the prices are also different, right?"

He was full of curiosity at this time, and he understood some of Zhao Huan's words, "We can Different people sell cotton thread at different prices according to what style and pattern they use, right?"

"Yes, Chen Xi is smart."

Seeing how quickly he understood, Zhao Huan praised happily: "By analogy, Chen Xi is really smart. Awesome."

Mu Chenxing and his wife didn't fully understand that they were already complimenting each other, so they could only watch them show their affection.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm so stupid."

Mu Chenxi said coquettishly: "I said I would make money for my wife, but you are the only one helping me. I am so useless."

At this time, he felt really depressed, compared with his wife , he is good for nothing, not as good as Zhao Huan in every aspect, how can he treat his wife well.

"How could it be!"

Zhao Huan couldn't help but feel sad when he saw the dejected look on his face, "Chen Xi just hasn't done these things before. I can teach you in the future. If we discuss anything together, we will get better and better."

"Yes. Mu Chenxi nodded, not wanting Zhao

Huan to bother coaxing her anymore, and said, "Do you have any other suggestions? Give us some advice."

"It's nothing, just pay more attention to the wages."

Tell them about the piece-rate wage. "This will increase their motivation and make the day more efficient. At the same time, they can earn more money. You can also earn more from it. It's a win-win situation for both of you."

"Yes. Mu

Chenxi smiled brightly, looked at Zhao Huan and said, "If they weave more, we can sell more, and naturally we will make more money."

"That's it,"

Zhao Huan said with a smile. As long as you think about the pros and cons, you can make a decision. "

...

" Wife."

Mu Chenxi couldn't sleep in bed and wanted to talk to Zhao Huan, "I feel really useless."

"Why. You think so?"

Zhao Huan had negative emotions when he heard this, and immediately lost all sleep, "Chen Xi is so smart and good at studying, why is it useless?"

"You can't take the imperial examination even if you are good at studying, and you can't do anything because of your fame Others."

Mu Chenxi thought about it for a long time, and there was nothing he could do. "Even as a master, no one will use me. They say I am stupid for wanting to do some business secretly, but I don't know anything, and I have to worry about you. "

That's it, you just say you're useless."

Zhao Huan knew he was telling the truth, but he couldn't let him say that. "You have something to do in front of me. You help me draw, and I save a lot of things." "Moreover, you can tell how good your drawing skills are by referring to mine. Are you still saying that you are useless?"

"Also,"

Zhao Huan listed them one by one, "even your teacher praises you. " , and that shopkeeper Xiao, you can make money to support me even with your good calligraphy."

"Well."

Zhao Huan wanted to continue, but Mu Chenxi covered her mouth, and Mu Chenxi secretly smiled in her heart. , but he said: "I am good in the eyes of my wife, as long as she doesn't dislike me, I will work hard."

"Fool, how could I dislike you."

Zhao Huan grabbed his hand When he came down, he said in a dumbfounded way: "What do you think about all day long? I will never dislike you even if I dislike you. You are the best and the best

." "But in my heart, my wife is the best and the best. "

Mu Chenxi was smiling in the darkness, "I'm afraid that my wife will think I'm useless, can't do anything well, and will stop liking me."

"No, as long as Chenxi is obedient and happy, I will I will always like you."

Zhao Huan reluctantly promised, "Don't always think about what others say. In my eyes, you are the best and the most useful to me. You can cook for me, rub my shoulders, and tease me. I am happy, stay with me every day and night."

"Well, how about I stay with my wife for the rest of my life?"

Mu Chenxi rested her head on his shoulder, "I will go to the academy tomorrow to let everyone know that my wife is not here. If you dislike me, you won't let me go."

Chapter 66

"Brother Mu, you're here."

Wang Qingquan and Liu Wenqing were waiting for Mu Chenxi at the door of the school early in the morning. They regretted asking him about his ranking yesterday.

After Mu Chenxi left, they figured out that he was injured and was not suitable to take the imperial examination, because he could not be an official because of this matter.

They were opening other people's scars, and each of them felt extremely regretful. They wanted to apologize to Mu Chenxi, but the moment they saw him, they hesitated whether to mention it again.

Liu Wenqing was still smart. Seeing that Mu Chenxi only had two big eyes exposed, he looked at the three of them doubtfully, and the words in his mouth turned into, "Your outfit looks really nice and feels very warm. Where is it?" "Bought it?"

"It's knitted by people in our village. It's soft, warm and beautiful."

Mu Chenxi picked up a corner of the scarf and asked him to touch it. "It's warm and comfortable. It feels soft.

" Take a look."

Wang Qingquan took a step forward and reached out to touch it. "It's really good. Brother Mu, I'll buy one from wherever your village sells it."

"It's not available yet. It will take a few days to get it."

Mu Chenxi pointed at what he was wearing, "The one on his head is a hat, the one on his neck is a scarf, the one on his hands is gloves, and the one on his face is called a mask."

He told Wang Qingquan and the others what they were called, "There are many styles, divided into men and women, the quality of the threads, and the patterns, the prices are different."

"Money is not an issue."

Wang Qingquan patted his chest, "Everyone in the family will get a set. It doesn't matter how much it costs, not here." I'm thinking about it."

"Yes!"

Mu Chenxi looked at him with a smile, "Your family is not short of money, so you don't care about the money. However, if you have a lot of people in your family, you have to order it in advance. Maybe you can't buy it."

"Yes, give me ten sets first." Liu

Wenqing said immediately. "If my family likes it, I will order more."

"Is there a few?" Mu Chenxi said

, "You have dozens of servants, right? And the clerks and shopkeepers in your shop also need one."

"What are you doing for them?"

Confused, "I just bought it for my family. They have to buy it for themselves."

How can any master buy these for his servants? Even if he is happy to reward them, it is just a little money. I have never heard of someone buying something as a gift. Woolen cloth.

"Don't you have a reputation for benevolence?"

Mu Chenxi gave him a big roll of her eyes. She really didn't understand at all. "You don't even have a benevolence for your own servants and employees. No one will say anything about your help to the poor people." Is it to gain fame? "

"Besides, if your servants go out and have a set of warm and cold things, they will look different from others, and they will also praise you, the master. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?"

Seeing that he was listening seriously, Mu Chenxi raised the corners of her mouth under the mask and continued to cheat: "They will also thank you masters and do their best. Wouldn't everyone become a loyal servant?"

"Yes. " Yeah!"

Liu Wenqing slapped his forehead and said with a sudden realization: "Other people's words don't matter, I don't care about that, but being able to dress up the servants in my family must be different, but it will make our parents look good. "

It's also important to get a lot of loyalty."

Seeing that he was obedient, Mu Chenxi happily patted him on the shoulder and said, "Your family is in business, and the most important thing is the loyalty of the stewards and clerks under you." Little things can make them feel warm and appreciate them. Brother Liu can't miss it."

"Yes, I'll give you fifty sets first,"

Liu Wenqing said, "I can make decisions about the people in the house, but I can't do anything about the business. I want to tell my father that I will take the things back to him and persuade him to buy some for the people in the shop to show his concern as the owner."

"That's right, that's what it should be like,"

Mu Chenxi said with a smile. "You must set an example in everything you do. When your father sees how grateful your family members are to you, he will understand this truth. The human heart is the most precious thing!"

"Well, thank you Brother Mu for the tip."

Liu Wenqing raised his hand and saluted, smiling. He said: "I heard that the clerks in your shop are very loyal and take care of everything in your shop."

"My wife gives them good food and drink every day, and occasionally gives them some rewards when business is better. That's all thanks to everyone, my wife doesn't have to worry about anything in the shop."

Mu Chenxi was very proud. Although those people were from his tribe, if Zhao Huan didn't treat them sincerely, how could they do their best and hope for a good business.

"Brother Wang, Brother Li, you should have a lot of servants in your family."

Mu Chenxi turned to the two of them again, "Especially Brother Wang, your government servants and policemen should also give a share in the cold winter. " Yes

, yes, I have to calculate how many people there are."

Wang Qingquan said: "There are almost a hundred people in our family and government officials, as well as the number of shopkeepers and clerks in the shops. You have to go back and ask me about this." Mom, you can order a hundred people first, and I'll tell you the number when Xiu Mu comes back."

"Well, what about Brother Li?"

Mu Chenxi nodded and asked Li Shaojie, "Brother Li, how many do you want?

" Ten sets, I'll go back and ask for the quantity of the others."

Li Shaojie smiled and said with a meaningful look in his eyes: "Brother Mu, I'm so happy to be able to make a small fortune this time."

"It's not much. A set doesn't cost much, especially if you buy it for your servants, the price is even cheaper than yours."

Mu Chenxi pretended not to understand what he said, and smiled slightly: "When you go back, don't forget to see your relatives and friends . Whether you need it or not, there are also their families, servants, and their relatives and friends. You can't keep such a good thing to yourself!"

He groaned in his heart: Don't think that I can't understand what you mean, but I'm stupid and can't understand. It doesn't matter. You all looked at me with sympathy yesterday, and you have to pay a price to make up for my hurt heart.

.........

"Chenxi."

After lunch, Mu Chenxi went to Jiang Haohai's place. As soon as he entered, Amber pulled him to greet him and asked: "How are you doing recently? How is your studies?"

"Okay."

Mu Chenxi He was a little confused. This was the first time Amber asked him about his studies. "I feel good, and the teacher also said that he has made great progress."

"That is, we Chenxi are so smart, how can we be worse than others."

Amber smiled: "If you want to go to Fucheng, you must want to visit the Imperial College, right?"

He looked at Jiang Haohai and said with some complaint: "My disciple, being treated like this, cannot even be ranked, nor can he go to the Imperial College in an upright manner. "I am a teacher, but I am not qualified at all."

"He can't go anywhere, even in Rongdu, who dares to say not to let him go?"

Jiang Haohai was scolded by him, his face was a little confused, and he said with a dark face: "If you want to be ranked, I can rank it now. Who dares to object? It's not that they don't need it, how can I not do my best?"

Mu Chenxi looked at it They quarreled, looked confused, looked left and right, and asked: "Amber, what's wrong with you and the teacher?"

"It's you, Amber."

Jiang Haohai said without anger: "You can't take the joint entrance examination. Go, he got upset, saying that you must be upset, it will affect your mood, and he has been mumbling for a day. "

"Did I say something wrong?"

Amber's quiet temperament, now like a protective parent, "How can we not be as good as Chenxi. Aren't they just not allowed to be officials in the imperial court? It's really annoying to see them all look sorry and unable. "

"If he wants to go, then go, what's the point?"

Jiang Haohai looked at him . Angry, he stopped flirting with him and said: "This time Fan Fuzi is leading the team to Fucheng. Chen Xi is familiar with him, so we can just go with him. We can rest assured that Lao Fan is here."

"Who is rare? His name is not justified. If it doesn't go well, we won't go."

Seeing his resignation, Amber softened his tone and said, "If Chenxi wants to go, I'll take him there."

"Hahaha"

Jiang Haohai laughed a few times and said . He said helplessly: "He just said that Chen Xi was a pity, and he didn't mean anything else. Why are you so angry now!"

Amber rolled her eyes at him and sneered: "Don't he value that Qi Junfeng? We, Chen Xi, don't think so. Okay, but I can't be an official, and I can't compare to others. Don't think I can't hear it."

Mu Chenxi stared at Amber in shock. This was so awesome that even the teacher didn't dare to talk back, saying that to Mr. Fan. It's simply worthless.

"Amber, you are so awesome!"

Mu Chenxi pulled Amber with a smile, "If Mrs. Fan hears this, he will blow his beard and stare in anger, and the loud voice will keep making noise."

"He dares."

Amber He glanced at Jiang Haohai with disdain and said, "Don't be afraid of Chen Xi. If he dares to tell you a bad word, your teacher won't stand up for you. Amber will go find him to judge you."

"Amber is mighty."

Mu Chenxi smiled. "Quack!" Seeing that the teacher was embarrassed, he immediately praised Amber, "Amber convinces people with reason and is so eloquent that no one can match him."

"Huh huh."

Jiang Haohai hummed softly. He seemed unconvinced, but He never said anything, but his face looked stinky, as if he didn't dare to say anything.

"Chenxi, do you want to go to Fucheng Imperial College?"

After Amber defeated Jiang Haohai, he turned to look at Mu Chenxi and said, "You can go with Mrs. Fan and the others, or you can go by yourself at some time. Amber can take you there too. "No one dares to let you in."

"I don't want to go."

Mu Chenxi leaned against him. He already understood what Amber meant, because he was afraid that he would be unhappy because he could not take the joint examination.

"What is there to see in the Imperial College?"

Mu Chenxi stretched out her fingers and counted them one by one: "I can spend time with my wife at home, I can spend time with Amber and my teachers, and I can see my family at any time. Why should I go there if I have nothing to do?"

"Them. " They are all happy to go to Fucheng for the joint entrance examination and stay in the Imperial College for a few days."

Amber carefully observed Mu Chenxi's expression, "You can also meet many knowledgeable and talented students, discuss and communicate with them, and maybe make some connections, you. "Really don't want to?"

"No."

Mu Chenxi shook his head. This is what others long for, not what he hopes for. "I don't think about it at all. I just want to be happy with you and gain fame and fortune." Far less important than you."

"Yes!"

Amber looked at Mu Chenxi happily, "These are really not important. They will never be as good as others."

"

My wife,

after class . , seeing Zhao Huan happily waiting for him outside, he couldn't help but curiously asked: "Daughter-in-law, are you so happy, is there something good going on?"

"Yes, there is something good going

on." Zhao Huan smiled and said, "Let's go home . Besides, you get on the bus first. "

Chapter 67

"Here, take a look."

After returning home, Zhao Huan handed Mu Chenxi a letter, "This is a letter from Shopkeeper Xiao of the Hongxiang Caravan."

Mu Chenxi opened the letter, read it over and said with a smile, "That's good. "My daughter-in-law can make money just by sitting at home. It's really amazing!"

"Ha!"

Zhao Huan sneered in his heart. He didn't realize that the old fox, Shopkeeper Xiao, is a monopoly. If his master is involved, he is definitely cannibalism. The Lord who does not spit out bones.

"But."

Mu Chenxi blinked, her dark and thick eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings, "Does Shopkeeper Xiao think that everyone else is stupid? Isn't this a dictatorship?"

"Eh?"

Zhao Huan listened to him At this, he raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Did you see it?"

He had just finished vomiting in his heart, not only shopkeeper Xiao and his master, but also Mu Chenxi, and now he was slapped in the face immediately, which didn't feel good. Feel good.

"Of course."

Mu Chenxi pointed to the letter, "Which of the two conditions for cooperation he proposed is not to fully control the ornaments you carved? However, he is too underestimated."

"Why? What do you mean?"

Zhao Huan suddenly realized that Mu Chenxi had a lot of ideas and asked with interest: "What do you think should be done?"

"Daughter-in-law, are you testing me?"

As soon as he said this, Mu Chen Xi stopped immediately and lay on his shoulder, head on his head, "You have already made your own decision, and you still come to ask me, aren't you kidding me?"

"Hahaha."

His hair was Zhao Huan rubbed his neck back and forth, making Zhao Huan laugh out loud, "Get up quickly, it's so itchy!"

"Haha."

When Mu Chenxi heard this, he immediately raised his head and said with a smile, "It turns out that my wife's neck is ticklish. Look at you. You can't scratch my itch anymore."

He said, hugging Zhao Huan's shoulders and blowing on Zhao Huan's neck, "Hahaha, hahaha." Zhao Huan was held tightly by him and couldn't escape. Itchy and laughing.

"Quick, let go."

"Hahaha."

Zhao Huanxiao was about to burst into tears. His neck was itching and he kept struggling. He said breathlessly: "I won't tickle you anymore. Hurry up." Let go, hahaha."

"I won't bother you anymore."

Mu Chenxi let go of him, and after Zhao Huan's breathing stabilized, he said, "Daughter-in-law, are you choosing the second method of cooperation?"

"Yes.

Zhao Huan clicked on the letter on the table and said: "The first way is to sell all my works to them. They can only sell them. In order for them to sell them exclusively, Shopkeeper Xiao must not reveal who carved them. " " It won't do me any good at all."

"You won't be able to do the second one, right?"

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan with a smile, and when he saw that he was teaching her, he immediately cooperated and said, "Daughter-in-law, please teach me. Me."

"Okay, I'll teach you."

Zhao Huan smiled, "The second way is to sell the ornaments I made there for no fee. Think about it, why do they fall like this for no reason? A big piece of pie?"

Mu Chenxi blinked, looking confused, "Daughter-in-law, why are they stupid?"

"Haha"

Zhao Huan looked at Mu Chenxi's bright eyes. It shines like stars that are constantly releasing light at night, and it is so dazzling that it directly hits people's hearts.

"How could they be stupid?"

Zhao Huan reached out with itchy hands and kneaded his cheeks. They were soft, tender and slippery, and he couldn't stop touching them because they felt so good.

While kneading Mu Chenxi, he said: "Isn't there another one? If there is a custom made by a customer introduced by them, they will charge 20% of the fee and give priority to the custom made."

"This, is this the monopoly my wife is talking about?"

Mu Chenxi said inarticulately. He allowed Zhao Huan to make trouble on his face and rubbed his face against his hand with a smile.

"Yes, it's just another way."

Zhao Huan let go of his hand without saying anything, and seeing that Mu Chenxi's fair cheeks had been rubbed red by him, he coughed twice in embarrassment.

"However, they have their own methods, and I have my own countermeasures."

Zhao Huan said: "I can take less of the custom-made things they have. If they say they are too busy, there is nothing they can do. You can also borrow their hands to kill us. " Yixuan spread the word."

"But."

Mu Chenxi frowned, "What if they don't reveal your information and only say that you are their own sculptor?"

His eyes showed a sly expression. With a look on his face, he pretended not to understand and asked Zhao Huan for advice, "Daughter-in-law, can you think of a way?"

...

"Chenxi."

Mu Chenhui saw him coming, put down the ornaments in his hands, and said with a smile: "Why are you here?

"Look at you guys, let's talk about something." Mu

Chenxi came to his side. "You haven't gone back so late. Don't let them worry."

"I did,"

Mu Chenhui said with a smile. My father is taking care of me, so there is no need to worry. If it snows and the roads become difficult, we can all stay here and do more work."

"Yeah,"

Mu Chenxi nodded, "Don't be too tired, take care of me. With a good body, carving is not something you can do in a hurry."

"We Chenxi have really grown up!"

Mu Chenxi, his second brother, Mu Chenchu ​​said, "I know I care about my family and I miss my brothers."

"It depends on what the second brother said. It's as if I didn't care about you before."

Mu Chenxi laughed dumbly, thinking about his old self, who was dull and polite, like a dull old man.

"It's not that you don't care, it's just that you don't say anything all day long, and your serious face makes everyone feel a little scared."

Mu Chenchu ​​sighed with emotion. As an elder brother, he felt a little scared when he saw him like that, " It's better to be like this, be happy every day, smile to everyone you see, and make others feel happy too!"

"If my second brother likes it, I will smile more, so that my brothers will be happy every day,"

Mu Chenxi said with a smile . Wan, looking at them, felt very satisfied, "We are all doing well, and our family is healthy and happy."

"Yes."

The eldest brother Mu Chenhui also smiled and said, "Yes, as long as the family is together and safe, that is a blessing."

He touched Mu Chenxi's head, feeling more and more fond of the younger brother he had brought up, "Chenxi just said something happened, what was it?"

"My wife said, brother, you are learning very quickly and well, and you will be able to run the shop after the Chinese New Year. I want to recruit more apprentices and train more talents."

When Mu Chenxi got down to business, he immediately looked serious, "Brother, I need you to carefully select some hard-working and motivated people. If we want to make Muyixuan bigger, we will definitely have talents."

"Don't worry about this."

Mu Chenhui heard this . He immediately promised: "Many people in our village are looking forward to coming to Muyixuan. Your second brother and I have already observed some people and will bring them in a few days."

"Hi!"

Mu Chenchu He said hello and said with a smile: "Our Mujia Village is going to be developed! This winter, both men, women, old and young will have something to do. Every family can make a fortune, and men don't have to go out to work everywhere."

"Yes." Mu Chenhui smiled and said

: "My cousin, I said that we should keep those men who go out to work to help twist cotton thread for weaving. This can save a lot of time.

"

It's easy to find, and the weather is cold and painful. It's better to do it at home, and you'll make more money." The next

day

, Mu Chenxi went to school and saw those classmates. Some were anxiously waiting, and some were regretful and annoyed. , and there are other things that have nothing to do with you and just sit on the sidelines.

He knew that today the results of next month's exam would be released, and at the same time he announced the places to go to Fucheng to take the joint exam. No wonder everyone had different expressions.

People who have the opportunity to compete will naturally care deeply. Those who are not able to give it a try will naturally be upset. People with an indifferent nature will naturally observe everything.

"Brother Mu."

Wang Qingquan came to his seat and pointed to his classmates with a smile, "They are all concerned about the quotas and are just waiting for the master to announce. Are you curious about who is there?"

He knew that he was out of luck, Li Shaojie In the same way, the only one who has a chance is Mu Chenxi, but he is the least likely person, and he feels a little regretful.

"It doesn't matter if I'm curious or not. The main thing is that it's useless for you to be curious."

Mu Chenxi looked at him with a smile and said, "Others are curious and have some ambitions. What are you curious about?"

"Alas!"

Mu Chenxi sighed. , shook his head and said: "Your curiosity is just looking for trouble. You won't be angry for a while, so why bother!"

"Uh."

Wang Qingquan was stunned by him. He just couldn't calm down and looked for boredom. Talk to him, is this wrong?

Why does Mu Chenxi always like to quarrel with him? Could it be that she is so unpopular with him? Every time she is either a blow or a quarrel, he is speechless.

"You!"

Li Shaojie came over and patted him on the shoulder, his eyes full of ridicule, "You just have nothing to do, and you have failed so many times that you can't remember it."

Mu Chenxi, a student who studied hard for many years in Hanchuang, is now in this situation In the end, no matter how open-minded he is, he doesn't want people to always mention these things that he is unable to participate in in front of him.

Wang Qingquan just couldn't figure it out, so he asked him to talk about it. Mu Chenxi would let him go and let him cause trouble for him again and again.

"Me."

Wang Qingquan didn't understand why everyone was pointing at him. Where did he go wrong?

"I'm just talking to you about this matter, and neither of us will participate. What does it matter?"

"Don't you want to participate? You don't have the ability, right?"

Mu Chenxi rolled her eyes at him, "If you express your regret and sympathy, He looked away, I can still talk to you, now! Haha, I won't forgive you. "

You're such a fool, you don't know how to look at people's faces, you still want to pursue an official career, and you don't deserve to be eaten by others. None left.

"Yeah!"

Only then did Wang Qingquan realize what he was doing, wasn't he just adding salt to Mu Chenxi's wounds?

"Sorry, Brother Mu."

He bowed guiltily, "It was my poor thinking that caused trouble for Brother Mu!"

"It doesn't matter."

Mu Chenxi smiled slightly, knowing that he meant no harm, "I'm not that stingy, Brother Wang. Don't worry about it."

When Wang Qingquan heard what he said, he couldn't help but give him a secret look. He was so angry that he couldn't even speak, but he still had the nerve to say that he was not stingy.

At this moment, Jiang Haohai came in from outside. He was pulled back to his seat by Li Shaojie and was almost caught by his wife.

"Now the monthly exam rankings are announced."

Jiang Haohai looked down and saw faces full of expectation. He couldn't help but smile and said: "There are still places to participate in the Fucheng Joint Examination."

He took out the list, paused slightly and said: "That's it. If you don't have it, don't be discouraged. From now on, you will take the joint entrance examination twice a year. As long as you work hard and make progress, you will eventually have a chance."

Mu Chenxi didn't even raise his eyebrows. These things have nothing to do with him. Even if he had the chance, he wouldn't ask for it, and he couldn't make his wife feel uneasy.

Chapter 68

The names came out one by one from Jiang Haohai's mouth, and the ranking change was not big. Qi Junfeng moved up two places, from fifth to third.

Wang Qingquan is like the second oldest in ten thousand years, still firmly at the bottom, and the others have basically remained unchanged.

Those who go to Fucheng to take the joint examination do not need to be specifically announced. They will naturally be among the top ten. At this time, everyone has already made a decision.

"Get in the top ten in the joint examination."

Jiang Haohai said: "We will set off in three days, led by Fan Fuzi. Students, prepare your bags in advance and don't miss the trip."

As usual, he explained the monthly examination questions and then commented on them. Mu Chenxi remained silent about the student's shortcomings.

Don't you know that among the students below, after he announced the rankings, all eyes fell on Mu Chenxi.

If Mu Chenxi was not ranked after one mistake, what about the second time? It is still at this critical time of the joint entrance examination.

The previous speculations in their minds were all unrealistic. Anyone could tell that there must be something inside.

It's just that these are not things that they can care about or find out, so they can only ignore them.

After class, Mu Chenxi walked out of the courtyard as usual. He had his own place to play.

"Hmph."

Cheng Jinwen looked at his back and glared coldly, "If you say there is no problem here, I really don't believe it."

Xiao Ruxi glanced at him, but as usual, Kuairen Kuaiyu stepped forward to join.

The last time he supported Cheng Jinwen, he had remembered it for the rest of his life. He didn't dare to get involved casually anymore. It was really embarrassing.

"It seems that he knows why he is not ranked. Otherwise, why wouldn't he be anxious about this joint entrance examination?"

Cheng Jinwen's face was gloomy and he took a bitter "poof", "He is just playing tricks on us. This He's from a poor family, and he doesn't even want to lose his face when he sees his money."

Qi Junfeng couldn't help but frown and looked at him, saying, "You are the one who sent it to the door yourself. Only if you are stupid will you know that you will win. "

That's right."

Xiao Ruxi saw Qi Junfeng's retort and said, "You also know that his family is poor, so he won't want this free money. Even we can't watch the money go out,

right ?" I just can't swallow this breath."

Cheng Jinwen's eyes were full of unwillingness. He was so embarrassed and it was all his own fault. How could he just let it go?

"If his ability and true knowledge are higher than ours, then that's it, no matter how embarrassing it is."

He looked at Qi Junfeng and Xiao Ruxi and said, "But Mu Chenxi is so cunning, doesn't he treat us like fools? Can you guys swallow this?"

"What do you think we should do?"

Xiao Ruxi asked. What Cheng Jinwen said made sense, mainly because this matter was too strange and he also wanted to know the reason.

"Brother Qi."

Cheng Jinwen looked at Qi Junfeng, "You are going to give the article to Master Fan later and ask him for some knowledge."

"You want me to inquire about this from Master Fan?"

Qi Junfeng heard what he said , understood the meaning, he thought

for a while and said: "Let's see the chance!" He was also curious about the reason, not because he was competing with Mu Chenxi, nor because he lost a bet, but just out of pure curiosity .

Qi Junfeng returned to his school, picked up his books and articles, and went to Master Fan's place.

"Master."

When he saw Master Fan, he bowed and saluted.

"Oh, it's Junfeng."

Fan Fuzi put down the book in his hand and said with a smile: "How about this national examination? There is no problem in taking the joint examination, but the key is whether you can get a ranking."

"Yes, the students are not very talented and have little knowledge . "There are still many things that I don't understand, and I want to ask Master for advice."

Qi Junfeng was respectful. Master Fan was his grandfather's old friend and a famous scholar. "I used to hear my grandfather say that Master Fan was very knowledgeable, but I always admired him but couldn't see it." "Now that I have this opportunity, I'd like to ask Master to teach me."

"Hahaha."

Master Fan laughed heartily, "Does your grandfather want to be lazy and not teach you, but he will send you out to hide himself?

" No, Junfeng doesn't want to bother."

Qi Junfeng said with a smile: "My grandfather heard that Master came here to teach and educate people, so he specially asked Junfeng to come here to learn from you."

"Alas!"

Master Fan's eyes showed a look of memory. We are all old, it would be great if your grandfather could come too, so that we can get together again. "

...

At this time, Mu Chenxi was in the plum forest in the outer courtyard, looking at the plum blossoms in bud in the trees, his eyebrows creasing with a smile. bend.

The plum blossoms in half of the courtyard at home were also in bloom, and he came to learn from the uncle who was looking after the plum trees how to prune the branches.

"Uncle, your hands are red from the cold. Can I help you?"

He showed his two eyes outside the mask with a smile. "I have gloves, so my hands won't freeze."

He raised his two hands to the uncle. Look, it frightened the uncle. He didn't react until he saw the scholar's robe on his body, "Are you a student of the academy?"

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi said happily: "Uncle, please teach me how to take care of it. Is the plum tree good? I have half a yard of plum blossoms that will bloom soon. I don't know how to prune them yet!"

The

uncle looked at his innocent eyes and smiled happily, sounding like a coquettish child. "Why are you covered up so tightly? Are you afraid of the cold?"

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi smiled and said, "My wife is afraid that I will be cold, so she dresses me warmly every day. I also have to take care of myself. No Let him worry about it."

"Hey! You have a wife?"

The uncle was amused by him and chatted with him casually. "Okay, I will teach you how to prune the plum branches." "Thank you, uncle

."

The long scissors in his hand, "Uncle, take a rest for a while. You tell me how to cut, and I will repair it."

In the distance, Chief Xu Shan and several old masters shook their heads helplessly when they saw this situation, feeling regretful in their hearts.

One of the old masters smiled and said: "What a good boy. Every time I see his smiling face, his mood gets better for no reason. What a pity!"

"Don't say it's a pity."

Another old master said: "You I didn't look at Master Fan, because it was a pity that I couldn't even say anything to the servant of Brother Jiang's house. How refreshing!"

"Hahaha,"

Mr. Xu Shanchang and other masters also heard what he said. Laughing, "Old Fan has such a loud voice, and whenever there is an argument, he quotes scriptures, and his voice is also high-pitched. No one can argue with him, and he will suffer a defeat."

"Hahaha."

They all laughed heartily, and felt relieved. , usually suppressed by Master Fan, now there is finally someone who can defeat him.

"Brother Xu."

One of the masters asked: "Who is that old servant? I saw that he kept calling me master, but he didn't show much respect to Brother Jiang. Jiang Haohai didn't treat him like a servant."

"I've been with him for almost a lifetime, so how can I still treat him like a servant?" There are too many identities."

Xu Shanchang said vaguely: "It's like family and old brothers. Who of us cares about the false identity?"

He knows Jiang An's identity, and Old Man Fan himself. Yes and it is clear. They have been friends with Jiang Haohai for many years, and they know a lot of secrets, but they can't talk about them casually.

.........

When Mu Chenxi returned to Juyuan, he saw Cheng Jinwen looking at him with disdain from a distance at the door. He wondered inexplicably: What is wrong with him again?

"Hmph."

Cheng Jinwen waited for him to approach and said angrily: "You don't even have to give up your face for the money. No wonder Zai Rong is injured and can't even take part in the examination."

"It's so petty. It's really more than the gain is worth the loss for just a little money."

Xiao Ruxi Hearing Qi Junfeng come back and tell them the reason, he couldn't help but be extremely angry, "You know you won't participate in the rankings, but you bet against us, do you still have the face?"

"Are you talking about me?"

Mu Chenxi pointed to herself, "You did it again. What's the disease? If you're not in good spirits, go get it treated. If you talk nonsense all day long, why don't you bother others? "

"Who do you think is sick?"

Cheng Jinwen stepped forward and pointed at Mu Chenxi: " You are the one who is sick, right? You are not even allowed to participate in the ranking academy. Why are you so arrogant? "

Mu

Chenxi nodded, "I am sick, I am stupid!" He

smiled and said, "But what does this have to do with you? Are you stupid too?"

"You."

Xiao Ruxi was about to quarrel with Mu Chenxi, but was pulled back by Cheng Jinwen. This time, she couldn't fall for Mu Chenxi's deception again, "We are not bad The little money you cheated is just to show these students what kind of virtue you have. You don't even give up the face of a scholar for a little money."

"What kind of virtue?"

Mu Chenxi looked puzzled, her eyes were clear and innocent, "Why didn't I know? I have virtue, what's the use of it, can it be used as food?"

"You still want to be shameless?"

Cheng Jinwen yelled angrily at his nonsense, "Why do you still gamble with us when you know you will win? If you defeat us with your true ability and your own talents, you will be considered upright. What does it mean to you now?"

"I won!"

Mu Chenxi smiled, with a trace of ridicule in his eyes, "Only a fool knows this. If you lose, you still have to gamble. I know I can win, so why don't I gamble with you?"

"If you don't like the fact that you have a lot of money, you can gamble with me again."

The smile on his face grew . Canlan said, "Don't worry, I will take them all. I am from a poor family, and I will not be embarrassed if I win."

"Nothing."

"Haha."

Mu Chenxi smiled, put his hands behind his back, straightened his body and looked down at Cheng Jinwen and Xiao Ruxi said, "The premise is that I can win."

"Okay, I'll bet with you."

Cheng Jinwen was so angry that he lost his mind and took out a handful of silver notes from his arms, "Here are two thousand taels, if you can Prove that you are better than us, and this money is yours."

"Oh, what if you can't prove it?"

Mu Chenxi blinked and asked, this fool came to give you money again, "I don't have money to give you, even if you lose. Nothing to gain."

"Despicable, shameless."

Cheng Jinwen was going crazy with him. He originally wanted to expose his true colors in front of the students in Juyuan, but he didn't expect Mu Chenxi to be so deceitful.

"My mouth is on you, and I can't do anything about what you want to say."

Mu Chenxi was not annoyed at all. It was not worth getting angry with such a person, so he tried to teach him a lesson, "There is another question. If you ask me to prove it, I will "Prove it?"

"What about you?"

Mu Chenxi said with a smile: "Do you want to prove to the students that you are so arrogant and domineering, and you are so talented?"

"Eh"

Cheng Jinwen was startled. "How to prove it?"

"You figure it out yourself, how can you ask me."

Mu Chenxi smiled and said: "If I can prove it, you will each give me two thousand taels of silver. If you can't prove it, you will also give me two thousand taels." Two coins."

He patted Cheng Jinwen on the shoulder, "If you don't have the guts, keep your mouth shut from now on and make these classmates look embarrassed."

"Okay, just do it."

Xiao Ruxi curled her lips. As long as there is no shortage of money, "Limited to tomorrow."

"You."

Cheng Jinwen was about to stop him when Mu Chenxi clapped his hands and said with a smile, "Okay, it's a deal, let's ask all my classmates to bear witness."

He looked at the people around him . The classmates who were watching quietly nodded with a smile, turned around and walked into the school building, thinking happily: I am rich again!

Chapter 69

"Brother Mu, Brother Mu."

Wang Qingquan and Li Shaojie hurriedly followed Mu Chenxi into the school building, "We didn't say this, you must believe us."

"It's okay, it's not like we can't see you. It's about people."

Mu Chenxi looked at their anxious faces and smiled and said, "I didn't doubt you at all. I thought too much."

"Then who said this, it's impossible for Brother Liu.

" Qingquan didn't know who else knew about this. He looked at Li Shaojie and said, "Now we all know, but what should we do?"

He didn't dare to look at Mu Chenxi. They all saw what happened just now, but they couldn't go up. Help, I feel guilty.

"You don't have to worry about this, just know it, it's nothing."

Mu Chenxi looked at their solemn faces, as if something big had happened, and couldn't help but shake her head: "It's okay to know, there is no hindrance."

"But if they laugh at you. "

Wang Qingquan hesitated to speak. He felt that it was a bit shameful, but he couldn't say it openly in front of Mu Chenxi. "There will always be some people who whisper behind their backs and make people annoying."

"If you can't hear it, it means you don't have it. "

Mu Chenxi is very open-minded. He has chosen this path, so he is not afraid of this. "It's my own business whether I am ranked or not. If they are envious, they don't have to be ranked."

He knew Wang Qingquan meant well, Wen Yan said. He reassured: "My classmates, most of them are gentlemen, don't worry about this."

Mu Chenxi looked at the students filing in, and whispered with a smile: "Maybe they are lucky to have one less competitor!"

"This."

Mu Chenxi could still keep his composure at this time. Wang Qingquan was really speechless. In their opinion, this was not a glorious thing. "Okay! Just don't care."

He returned to his seat dejectedly, not understanding why Mu Chenxi could think of it. With such an attitude, I don't care about other people's opinions or gossip.

"Brother Mu is really open-minded and doesn't care about this."

Li Shaojie was really convinced this time. Others thought Mu Chenxi was stupid, but they knew that was not the case.

He thought that if he were in Mu Chenxi's position, he would be so embarrassed and angry at this moment. Even if he was not in a state of collapse, he would never be so open-minded.

"Cheng Jinwen and the others went too far this time."

Wang Qingquan looked at them with unkind eyes, "If you lose, you lose. Don't you think you can't afford to lose? Are you still trying to find someone to blame?"

"Don't be angry, don't . Angry."

Li Shaojie didn't know why this time, but he was confident that Mu Chenxi would not lose. "They are rushing to give money to Brother Mu. This is a good thing. Just wait for Brother Mu to treat you!"

"I'd rather wait! Look at how they were slapped in the face."

Wang Qingquan sneered, "I have never seen such a small-minded person, and he is still a disciple of Fucheng. It's really embarrassing."

...

Cheng Jinwen watched Mu Chenxi leave leisurely, and the other students also left as if nothing happened. , no one had any opinion on the matter.

He stood alone outside with Xiao Ruxi with a cold face, thinking that if Mu Chenxi was exposed, those students would laugh and look down on him, so he could watch the fun and vent his anger.

I didn't expect everyone to react like this. What's especially hateful is that he was betting against Mu Chenxi again. He seemed to be mumbling to himself, or said to Xiao Ruxi: "We must win this time."

"How to win? Xiao Ruxi

looked at him with strange eyes, "How can we just learn, don't we have any idea? Who can guarantee whether we can win?"

He was angry at Mu Chenxi's indifferent attitude, that a poor man didn't take them seriously. This doesn't matter whether he wins or loses.

"It's just some money, and we don't need that."

Xiao Ruxi patted him on the shoulder and said, "Whether we win or lose, be open-minded. It's not like we haven't lost before. This time we won't be as embarrassed as last time. We didn't bully him." He just can't take this breath."

When Cheng Jinwen heard what he said, his eyes flickered a few times, and he said tentatively: "How about going to find Brother Qi, he is ranked third, and he will never be compared to Mu Chenxi. "

It's better to let it go."

Xiao Ruxi waved her hands repeatedly. His cousin was not easy to get along with, "He just said that he wouldn't let us talk to Mu Chenxi about this. Going now is just to see his cold face." "

Cheng Jinwen was also afraid of Qi Junfeng and could only give up, "I don't believe that he is really better than us in talent and learning. If that were the case, he would not hang around among us scholars as a scholar."

Mu Chenxi really didn't let the two of them. After waiting for too long, the students all gathered in the Juyuan after lunch in the canteen to study the top ten posted articles.

"Come on, make way, make way."

The students who were watching turned around and saw Mu Chenxi waving to them, "Please make room for me first."

Mu Chenxi took the gardener uncle and carried a When the ladder passed, he climbed up the ladder with great skill and posted the articles he had written for the two monthly exams.

"Everyone, I'm sorry."

After Mu Chenxi came down, he saluted them, "The space for posting is limited, I can only post it above you, please forgive me."

"It doesn't matter."

A student said with a smile: "Brother Mu can be ranked first . It's an honor for me."

"Brother Mu, you don't have to be polite. Let's discuss knowledge together when we have time and communicate more with each other."

The other students said they didn't care. Most of them knew Mu Chenxi's intention and they also understood it. Cheng Jinwen and the others were not used to things happening again and again.

Most scholars have integrity and are mostly gentlemen. After learning about Mu Chenxi's situation, everyone felt sympathy and regret. No one would come forward to cause trouble.

This was also the reason why they all turned around and ignored Cheng Jinwen when he thought that exposing Mu Chenxi would be ridiculed.

"Brother Mu."

At this time, Wang Qingquan and the others crowded over and asked happily: "Is this your article posted?"

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi nodded and smiled: "As a scholar, I don't want to show off the article. , but there are people who refuse to obey, so there is nothing they can do."

After he finished speaking, he looked at the sullen Cheng Jinwen not far away and said, "Brother Cheng, I have posted an article to prove it, and I am waiting for you now."

Mu Chenxi said this . , but he didn't want to wait for them to prove it, so he called the gardener uncle to carry the ladder and left. He also had to learn to prune the plum trees, so he had no time to bother with them.

He expected that Cheng Jinwen and the others would not have the courage to post their own articles. If they did, he would admire them for being responsible and still considered figures.

As soon as Mu Chenxi left, the students who were still reserved immediately crowded forward, wanting to see what his article was like. Even those who were friendly to him were very curious.

Even Cheng Jinwen and Xiao Ruxi didn't care about the embarrassment. They crowded forward and gathered around the test paper, trying to find any flaws in Mu Chenxi who posted his own article regardless of his face.

"Oh! Brother Mu is really good at calligraphy!"

Before appreciating the article, someone exclaimed: "Just because of this word, it is worth watching when it is posted." As soon as this sentence came out, it immediately aroused all kinds of admiration, and some people pointed to Jiang Haohai's revision and Criticism.

"Master has known about Brother Mu's talent for a long time and has been teaching him carefully. I thought that the past neglect was because he looked down on Brother Mu!"

"When this kind of article is exposed, who will look down on it!"

Someone sneered: " Masters are all people of great love, how can they ignore talented and learned people?"

Mu Chenxi's two articles caused a sensation in the Juyuan, and no matter what people thought of him, they had nothing to say now.

And what Mu Chenxi said just now, he was unwilling to show it to others, which was interpreted as his unwillingness to attack others. After all, he did not take the imperial examination.

If the test papers were taken out and made public, it would immediately make people feel ashamed. Needless to say, it would be a blow to people like them who were looking forward to the imperial examination.

Qi Junfeng was shocked when he saw Mu Chenxi's article. He considered himself to be as talented and knowledgeable as others, but he couldn't compare with Mu Chenxi.

His grandfather was a great Confucian. He had been influenced by him since he was a child and had been taught by famous teachers. Naturally, he could tell what Mu Chenxi's articles were like.

"Alas!"

He turned to look at Cheng Jinwen and saw that his face was as dark as ink. He couldn't help feeling a little disgusted with him, but he still reminded him because of friendship.

"Go and admit your mistake! Show your mind and courage and don't lose your identity. You must know that you are not the only one who has lost face."

"Just admit defeat. Why apologize? He deserves it too!"

Cheng Jinwen frowned. : "He has this knowledge, why didn't he let people know it earlier, and he still pretends to be a child and plays around every day."

"What others do has nothing to do with you. What you have to do is to be responsible for your own actions."

Qi Junfeng still saw him . He was stubborn and said impatiently: "If you don't handle this matter well and show the attitude you should have, will you still want to take the imperial examination and become an official in the future?"

He pointed at the students who were crowded around to read Mu Chenxi's article, "Aren't they all Most of the common people are from high-ranking families or wealthy families. They

come here for the great scholars like the Academy.

What will happen to your reputation when they go back and tell them what happened today? What will happen to your family's reputation? Don't ruin yourself in a moment of anger, let alone bring shame to your family."

Cheng Jinwen said nothing and had great resentment towards Mu Chenxi. How could he swallow this when a poor family member repeatedly slapped him in the face. tone.

"Don't cause a stir in the academy, that will be even more unhelpful to you."

Qi Junfeng suddenly said in a serious tone, "None of the masters in the academy are sharp-eyed. Let them know that you are stubborn and stubborn. You may not be able to bear the consequences, but how will you explain it to your family? "

Brother Cheng."

At this time, Wang Qingquan came over suddenly, "You should apologize to Brother Mu for this matter."

He pointed at the article posted by Mu Chenxi and said, "Brother Mu is outstanding in learning and literary talent. This is obvious to all. It cannot be because of this." He is a commoner and has been repeatedly provoked and humiliated by you."

"Haha."

Liu Wenqing sneered and said, "Go and inquire outside. If anyone knows that you are treating Brother Mu like this, just wait for everyone to criticize you."

"We are here . All students are helped by Brother Mu. Even my admission into Class B was a gift from him. "

Liu Wenqing is a local and knows much more than them. "Brother Mu is kind and generous to other students. His books and notes are fully lent out for everyone to study and communicate with, and he will never refuse anyone who comes to ask for advice."

He turned to look at the students around him, "No matter who it is, whoever lets our local students know about it will be punished. Everyone should know what the situation will be. "

Of course these people know that most literati have a stubborn heart, especially those civilians and small households. If you get angry, they don't care who you are or what your status is. The unrelenting momentum.

"Go and apologize. It's your fault. Why don't you admit it."

"Just don't ruin the reputation of our academy because of your temporary actions."

"Humph, not only the reputation of the academy, but also the reputation of us foreign students will be implicated. , will be despised by others."

"That is, if the local students criticize me, how can I see people in the future?"

"We can't even honor our ancestors, but we will lose our reputation. , what kind of face do they have left in the world?"

These students attacked each other, losing their previous image of gentlemen, and suddenly transformed into messengers of justice, attacking Cheng Jinwen and Xiao Ruxi together.

They looked at the scene in front of them, and their hearts were in turmoil. They did not expect that one day they would become public enemies, surrounded by everyone, and suffer a lot of accusations and disdain.

The spittle was almost sprayed on their faces. If their status hadn't been so noble that people were afraid of them, someone would have proposed driving them out of the academy at this moment.

.........

When Mu Chenxi came back to class after lunch, he saw Cheng Jinwen and Xiao Ruxi dejected and losing their usual arrogance. They were surrounded by people like sinners being suppressed, standing languidly next to his seat.

"Brother Mu is here."

Wang Qingquan shouted when he saw him coming in, with the joy of victory in his tone, "Brother Cheng and Brother Xiao are waiting to apologize to you!"

He winked, looking satisfied. , as if he had done something to be proud of, his body straightened up, as if he was waiting for Mu Chenxi to praise him.

Seeing the situation in front of him, Cheng Jinwen had no choice but to shoot. He closed his eyes and opened them, gritted his teeth and apologized: "Brother Mu, we were wrong, please forgive me."

"Ha!"

Mu Chenxi raised an eyebrow . , and immediately understood what was going on. Seeing Cheng Jinwen's unwillingness, he sneered in his heart.

"It doesn't matter, we are all classmates in the same hospital. It's a big deal to improve if you recognize your mistakes."

This was the last chance he gave them. He would not be so careless next time. The necessary means must be used, and they could not be provoked and harassed by them again and again.

"However, I still want to remind Brother Cheng."

Mu Chenxi's expression was indifferent, "There are people outside the world, and you must remember this sentence. And I am not used to being provoked and bullied all the time. This is the last time."

Chapter 70

"Daughter-in-law, I'll give you a banknote."

After Mu Chenxi went home and had dinner, he took out the banknote he won from Cheng Jinwen and the others and placed it in front of Zhao Huan.

He smiled brightly with a hint of pride, waiting for Zhao Huan to praise him, but when Zhao Huan saw the banknotes, he remained silent and his expression became thoughtful.

"What's the matter, wife?"

Mu Chenxi looked at him in a daze without saying a word, feeling a little anxious. She took his hand and explained: "These eight thousand taels came in an honest way. I didn't do anything bad."

"I know, Someone must be trying to bully you again."

Zhao Huan looked up, his eyes full of pity and annoyance

. "Chenxi, do you really not want to study in the academy?" "No,"

Mu Chenxi shook his head, "You still have to talk to the teacher. After studying for a while, I now find that I have learned too little before and I still need to study harder. "

"Oh, if you don't want to, we can come back at any time, it's fine."

Zhao Huan knew when he got the banknote back. Something must have happened to Chen Xi in the academy. He had some doubts about whether it was right for him to send him to study.

Although this is currently the best way to remind him of the past, no one can say whether the lost memory can really be recovered.

His intention is to cultivate Mu Chenxi so that his learning ability, social ability, and independent ability can better cope with future life.

Mu Chenxi's studies in the academy would not be smooth sailing. He had already expected this. It could be said that many things were under his control and he could handle it.

But now that things are happening one after another, they are still members of the high-ranking families in Fucheng. If they use any despicable means, Zhao Huan doesn't know if Mu Chenxi can handle it.

"Alas!"

Mu Chenxi saw that he was worried and worried, and sighed secretly: caring leads to chaos. Such an elegant, noble and indifferent person has become overly worried and anxious.

"Daughter-in-law, I'm fine."

Mu Chenxi looked at him seriously, "You taught me a lot, I remember them all. Don't be afraid of them, I will definitely protect myself."

"Well, Chenxi is the smartest and best "

Zhao Huan couldn't think of a good solution for the moment, so he could only tell Mu Chenxi more about the intrigues and scheming behind the scenes, so that he could be more prepared.

"Daughter-in-law, didn't you say that you would tell me today how to guard against the monopoly of Shopkeeper Xiao and the others?"

Mu Chenxi saw that he was worried, turned her eyes and said with a smile: "What on earth have you come up with? Wife, hurry up. Tell me!"

He held Zhao Huan's hand and kept acting coquettishly, making Zhao Huanjing unable to think about things, so she had no choice but to say, "Okay, okay, I'll tell you now."

"Speak quickly, tell me quickly. , Haha."

Mu Chenxi shook his shoulders, leaving no chance for him to be distracted, "Let's be prepared, so we won't be afraid that Shopkeeper Xiao and others will hide the news about our Mu Yixuan."

"Well, come with me . "

Zhao Huan was helpless by his troubles. He took his hand and led Mu Chenxi to his carving room. "You will know if you see it for yourself."

Zhao Huan pointed to a flower ornament that had just been carved, and put his finger on it. On the base of the ornament, "Here is the address of our Wood Art Gallery, anyone can see it at a glance."

The three words of their Wood Art Gallery were clearly engraved on the ornament, clearly indicating that it was produced by their Wood Art Gallery.

Zhao Huan moved the ornaments again and pointed them out to Mu Chenxi in a hidden place, "This is the logo of Muyixuan carved by me. It is difficult for others to find, but they can identify whether it is produced by our Muyixuan. It can prevent others from counterfeiting. "

"Is this a symbol of two hands?"

Mu Chenxi's eyes lit up when she saw the methods he had prepared to deal with Shopkeeper Xiao, and she praised happily: "My wife is so powerful. Shopkeeper Xia Xiao and the others are going to be in trouble."

"Yeah."

Zhao Huan smiled and nodded, "He has a good plan and I have a lot of tricks. There is no way to do business without taking risks. He wants to spread the word about our Wood Art Gallery. You can't be afraid of everything."

"Yes!"

Mu Chenxi looked at Zhao Huan's confident and cheerful face and said meaningfully: "Everything has risks, and those who are in office can also sack their families and exterminate their families. , everyone is still vying to become an official."

"Huh?"

Zhao Huan looked into Mu Chenxi's dark and clear eyes, carefully studying the meaning of his words, but he couldn't help but be held in his arms. The warm breath is on the most sensitive part of my neck.

"Daughter-in-law, thank you."

Mu Chenxi put her head on his shoulder, breathing right on Zhao Huan's itchy spot, which made him dare not move for a while and could only listen to Mu Chenxi's next words quietly.

"Thank you for your care and love, thank you for making me so happy, thank you for everything you think and do for me."

Mu Chenxi has been thinking that his experience may be unfortunate or regrettable in the eyes of others, but to him But I feel very lucky, otherwise how could I have met Zhao Huan and have the opportunity to have such a good wife.

"What's wrong?"

Zhao Huan felt a little uncomfortable being stirred up by him so suddenly. Hearing these words made him feel itchy in his heart. He felt that Mu Chenxi had changed more and more, "Chenxi has grown up and is becoming more and more good at talking and pleasing people. I like it."

"Yes."

Mu Chenxi said with a smile on her face and gentle eyes, "I have grown up and am an adult. My daughter-in-law, I just like to please you."

"Okay, okay, it's all me . "It's your fault."

Zhao Huan sighed, Mu Chenxi was also playing tricks on her, "I won't ask you whether to study or not. You can decide everything by yourself. I will give my full support, okay?

" "

Mu Chenxi raised her head and stopped teasing him. She looked at the ornaments on the table and said with a smile, "Daughter-in-law, your methods are so good!"

"I will engrave the words "Mu Yixuan" on the ornaments and leave ours. Address, it will be useless no matter how hard they hide the information. In addition, if we keep the secret sign, the counterfeiting will be discovered."

Zhao Huan's gentle eyebrows were full of confidence, "We are still in the stage of training engravers, so we are not in a hurry. After one or two years, our Mu Yixuan will truly flourish."

Mu

Chenxi smiled brightly and applauded Zhao Huan, "When my daughter-in-law becomes famous all over the world, I will. I will accompany you all over Da Rong and show them how young and elegant the most outstanding sculptor in Da Rong is."

"Haha"

Zhao Huan looked at Mu Chenxi with joy and pride in his heart. One day, the morning light will get better and better, and we will move forward together. "

...

When Mu Chenxi returned to the academy, he won the respect of those students. Cheng Jinwen and the others also stayed away and stopped approaching him. Make trouble.

In the blink of an eye, three days later, it was the day for students to take the joint entrance examination in Fucheng.

Mu Chenxi saw that they were full of fighting spirit and eager to stand out, and he also stepped forward to wish them success in the joint examination.

But in fact, he was not optimistic at all. He had read these students' articles, and they were not much better than the articles he wrote when he was a scholar.

If I'm not being humble, I'm not as good as he was at that time. But at that time, my family was too poor to enter the county school. I was studying in other colleges and had no chance to take the joint entrance examination.

"Brother Mu."

Wang Qingquan asked during lunch, "What do you think their results will be like? I feel they have a great chance of getting ahead." "

Half and half."

Mu Chenxi shook his head, "There are many academies this time. Joining, the variables are huge, it's hard to say what will happen. "

"Brother Mu, do you think it's difficult for the students in our academy to get good grades?"

Li Shaojie asked in confusion. He thought it was too difficult to start from a humble family, and he was not of the same level at all." Those from lower families study hard and are admirable for their diligence."

He put down his chopsticks and said, "In terms of teachers, they can't compare with these high-ranking students. They also have problems with their horizons, and their books cover all aspects. It's the disadvantages of poor families, and it's even more difficult to get ahead."

"Yes!"

Wang Qingquan nodded, "In terms of hard work, those high-ranking students are not bad, and they have a high starting point, and are higher than those from low families in many aspects. It's incomparable."

"According to what you say, the days of prosperity for poor families are over?"

Liu Wenqing said unconvinced: "I know some students from poor families who still have to deal with their livelihood issues, but their knowledge is no worse than others, and is even much better.

He looked at Wang Qingquan and Li Shaojie and said, "Aren't those officials from poor families just soaring to the sky and suppressing many young people from high families?" "

What we mean is that there are only a few who are successful and famous. It's not that those from poor families will never get ahead. " "

Wang Qingquan and the others were arguing about this matter, and Mu Chenxi looked amused, "Don't argue. It's really difficult to come from a humble family. There are too few people who can occupy a place in the officialdom. Most of them are small officials. "

Li Shaojie saw that he never said the reason for his judgment, so he asked again: "Brother Mu, why did you judge that their joint entrance examination results would not be 100% sure? We have seen their articles."

"Oh!"

Mu Chenxi looked at it funny He, Li Shaojie, insisted on saying something himself, "People's livelihood, respect and love for Da Rong, these two points are not as good as those of a humble family."
