Everyone Knows I am a Good Man

When Old Hu and Ji Changze went back to the village together, they were all floating.

If this is placed in the county or city, the weight of a talent is not that big, but in the town, the village will be different. Ordinary people are called Xiucai, which is what the master Xiucai calls.

Before, there were famous talents in the town. They lost their wives in their thirties and still had children under their knees. The wealthy people in the town rushed to marry their 16-year-old daughters, with a lot of dowry. It is the power of the status of a scholar in the eyes of the people.

Even the scholars of the previous dynasty are the same. In those years of chaos, many books were destroyed, and many people died across the country. When the imperial examination was announced today, the people who went to rush for the exam were almost better than before. Plummet.

It's not that these scholars don't want to test the fame of the imperial court, but most scholars can't carry it on their shoulders and cannot mention it. If there is a bit of force in the family, it is okay for those who want to live with money or poverty. Difficult.

Even if he survives, many of the elders in the family have died. If the elders die, they must be filial, or it is because the family has no money in the family, or they have no intention of going to school. In short, if you want to talk to everyone in the past The knowledge level of the guy is 10, so now, a 67 is not bad.

In the past, I was able to pass the exam, but now I can also pass the exam.

Ji Changze knew what Hu's son was thinking, and he didn't directly say that he didn't want to go to the imperial examination. After returning to the village, he said goodbye to Hu's son and went back to Zhao Yueniang.

Zhao Yueniang was making clothes. Ji Changze knew it was made for him only by one glance. He smiled, sat at the table, and said, "The household registration has been completed, and we will be married in two days."

"Then I will quickly make your clothes ready. Are you tired? I'll warm up your food first."

Before they got married, they looked like old couples.

Zhao Yueniang got up and went to the kitchen to heat up the meal, thinking in her heart whether she should tell the villagers on the day of her marriage and let them have fun.

The unspoken rule in the village is that the more people come to join in the fun on the day of marriage, the better the face of the bride and groom, which also means a blessing.

But Zhao Yue's family was not very face-saving in the village before, and in addition to the daily noise in the second room, some people in the village who were afraid of trouble were not willing to interact with them.

Otherwise, I would not hire any more, I don’t have much money at home, and I still need to buy medicine to help Changze...

As she was thinking, someone suddenly called her at the entrance of the yard: "Yueniang, Yueniang."

When Zhao Yueniang raised her head subconsciously, she was surprised to find that many people were standing outside her yard, all looking at her with excitement and joy.

what happened?

Except for the trouble in the second room, there have never been so many people at their door.

Seeing her looking up, the villagers standing at the door became more excited and hurriedly called her over.

Zhao Yueniang didn't know what was going on, so she wiped her hands and walked over: "Auntie, what is going on? Why are so many people here?"

"Yueniang, we, we want to see Master Xiucai, is he here? Is it convenient for us country folks to meet?"

Zhao Yueniang was stunned: "Master Xiucai? What Master Xiucai?"

"You don't know yet!"

The third aunt who was talking was even more surprised than her expression, and said in a loud voice; "Isn't it just Ji Changze who lives in your house?! This is a scholarly master, isn't Xiao Hu going to accompany Ji Changze to do the household registration today? Come back? I told us personally when I was, a serious scholar!"

Zhao Yueniang became more confused.

Xiucai? Nagasawa?

Ji Changze in the room heard the movement outside and walked out. As soon as she came out, she heard what the third aunt said. She was a little embarrassed on her pure white face. He just smiled embarrassedly and arched his hands as he explained. "Don’t get me wrong, you guys, my fame is not now, it was taken by the previous dynasty. Today’s court doesn’t recognize it. Don’t call me a talented person anymore, or let those in the know listen to me and think I have How cheeky."

When he didn't know his talent status before, the villagers had a bad impression of Ji Changze.

First of all, he is too thin, and he is too white. At first glance, he doesn't get the sun often, which means he doesn't go to the ground often. Secondly, he talks about this. Although he knows that his throat is injured and can't talk, he always makes people feel bad. Don’t you think it’s just like a dumb?

But now that he is actually a talent, the situation is different.

Is that thin? It's the same for scholars. This is called slender and good-looking.

Chang Bai is even more knowledgeable. If you see a scholar who wants to go to the ground, isn't it all reading and writing in the house?

There is also speech, worthy of being a scholar, even speaking different from their country folks, soft-spoken, gentle and polite, even if the voice is dumb, it still sounds like a spring breeze. This is the character of a scholar.

In a word, Ji Changze wears the words "Xiu Cai" in his body, and people in the village feel that he has a halo of his own.

It is worthy of being a talented master, and every move is different from ordinary people.

Looking at Ji Changze, who was embarrassed and smiled while greeting the people in the village, Zhao Yueniang was still in a daze, and finally got over, she took Ji Changze to the side and whispered: "Are you really a talented person? Why didn't you talk to me before? Say?"

Ji Changze: "That was just the fame that was passed in the previous exams, and now it is not counted. Isn't it just a joke to say it for nothing?"

Zhao Yueniang: "..."

The talents of the former dynasty are also talents!

How could it make people laugh? If he had said this when he first came to the village and had no money to treat a disease, there would be so many people in the village who would help him treat the disease, and he would fall into the drowsyness before. Nearly dead.

Zhao Yueniang opened her mouth to speak. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw Ji Changze standing in front of her with her back straight, with clear and gentle eyes looking at her quietly, with a little doubt in her eyes, as if she was wondering why she reacted so strongly. .

She didn't know what to say for a while.

If Ji Changze was still the former refugee, the marriage of the two would be a good match.

But now, knowing that Ji Changze was once a talent, it is obvious that she can't afford it.

But Ji Changze doesn't look like he is about to regret marriage.

Looking at Zhao Yueniang’s hesitant and entangled look, Ji Changze knew what she was thinking. He coughed weakly, and turned to ask the villagers who were still discussing his talent status: "Everyone, I’m not healthy yet, so I’ll go back. The room is over, please don’t tell me that I’m a scholar outside, this is a matter of the previous dynasty.”

He let out a soft voice again, and gently said to Zhao Yueniang: "Yueniang, I'm relying on you here, I...cough cough cough, I'll go back to the house and have a rest."

Zhao Yueniang's various thoughts in her heart were directly dispelled by his coughs, and she nodded quickly: "Go and rest, it's windy outside."

Ji Changze was weak and weak, but turned back to the house with a firm foot.

He is a weak scholar, how can he stand the excitement.

The people in the village are not lively, they are simply fried.

"Have you heard? Zhao Yueniang's husband-in-law who is about to get married, the man she picked up, is actually a talent."

"Xiaocai!!! This is an xiucai!!!"

"Zhao Yueniang is really turning around now, and she hasn't married out for so long, but she actually made her wait for a talent."

Some are happy for Zhao Yueniang, but naturally also jealous.

Some people who have daughters at home are beginning to feel tempted.

"My girl is only seventeen years old this year. Isn't she younger than Zhao Yueniang? If it can make her look talented..."

"At the beginning, this talented master also walked in front of my house. I said to give saliva to drink. My mother-in-law must drive people away. Tell me! That's a little bit worse. This talented master belongs to our family!"

For the villagers, marrying a talented person is equivalent to directly stepping up a higher ladder. Everyone is not strong in moral concepts, and many people are moved.

Liu is happy these days.

It was already great news that the daughter found her husband, and the husband did not lack arms, legs, or age. On the contrary, he was gentle and polite to her and her daughter.

The bottom of my heart is satisfied, the good news that the future son-in-law is actually a former scholar is coming back.

Her daughter was able to marry a scholar.

This is Master Xiucai! !

Recently, Liu has gone to the stream to wash clothes more often, just to listen to the envy and compliments of others.

When I went today, I ran into the second room unexpectedly.

Aunt Zhao Er was washing her clothes, while following a circle of nearby wives, eloquently: "Master Xiucai is worthy of even the daughter of a member of Chen’s family in town, how could she be regarded as a wild girl in the countryside, according to I see, this marriage must be impossible. You are envious of others now. In a few days, you should pity Zhao Yueniang."

Liu's angry basin fell to the ground: "What nonsense are you talking about! Changze and my Yueniang have already set a date, this is something the whole village knows!"

"Yes, it's a date. It's not like you have to get married once you've set a date. How old is Zhao Yueniang this year, she will be twenty-five soon. Although she is a bit charming, she still drags you to be raised by such an important person. My dear mother, is the master of scholarship stupid? A good daughter does not want to marry, she must marry a wild country girl who drags her mother to marry."

This can be regarded as a headache for Liu's heart.

She always felt that she was dragging her daughter down. When she was young, she couldn't keep the family property left by her husband. When her daughter grew up, many people didn't want to marry her because she wanted to raise her.

Now she was stunned by Aunt Zhao Er, her angry face was innocent, but she didn't know what to say.

Being embarrassed, there was a hoarse, but rather gentle voice from a distance: "Auntie, who are you talking to?"

The sound was Ji Changze. The eyes of the big and small daughter-in-laws around were bright, and they all looked up one by one, and saw that Ji Changze, who was standing upright, wearing a gray robe above the steps, was slowly walking down, between movements. It was full of gentleman who was different from the men in the village.

After coming down, he did not go to see Mrs. Zhao Ernian, but smiled at Liu's family: "I just came back from buying things for our wedding with Yueniang. It's such a coincidence that we met you here."

Liu's heart was already happy when he heard the words "buying big wedding supplies".

What Ji Changze would not marry her daughter.

I bought everything for the big wedding, and now these people should know that her daughter is really going to marry.

Looking up again, I saw my daughter standing on the top of the steps and looking at this side. The tight expression on her face relaxed. When the corner of her eyes swept to the stiff and ugly expression of Uncle Zhao Er, she was quite exasperated. , Even speaking with a higher voice; "It’s nothing, I just talked to Yueniang and her second aunt, and talked about whether she would come to participate when you were married. At any rate, she’s also a relative, so everyone can have fun together. ."

When Madam Zhao Er heard this, the stiff expression on her face became even heavier.

She had just finished saying that Ji Changze might not marry Zhao Yueniang, so Ji Changze bought the wedding supplies, and even talked to Liu in such a respectful and gentle manner, as if he treated Liu as an elder with a respectable elder.

Face hurts.

She was feeling that she couldn't get off the stage, and she saw Ji Changze's face showing embarrassment after listening to what Liu said, as if she didn't really want to discuss the topic of her wedding.

Is it possible that she really got her guess?

Ji Changze didn't want to marry Zhao Yueniang at all, otherwise, how could he have such an expression.

She was overjoyed, her ugly expression loosened, and she smiled and asked with complacency: "Nagaze, you don't seem to be too happy about it. This marriage is a great joy."

Ji Changze looked tangled, twisted his eyebrows slightly, and said in an embarrassed gentle manner: "Marriage is naturally a big joy, and you, as the elder of the moon mother, should have come, but..."

Sure enough, I didn't want to get married.

Aunt Zhao Er's heart was almost filled with joy, she worked harder to soften her face, and said to Ji Changze as gentle and gentle as possible: "If you have anything to say, there are so many people here, what do you want to say? Just say it."

Ji Changze still hesitated: "Speaking out...it would be too hurtful..."

"It's all from the countryside. I don't know how fragile it is. Others I don't know. My younger siblings are the most similar in temperament to me. They are all people who like to be straightforward, so just say what you want. "

It's good to hurt people. If Zhao Yueniang was repented of marrying in front of so many people, she wouldn't even be able to marry a goddess.

Aunt Zhao Er was proud of her heart, and the smile on the corner of her mouth was about to rise to the sky.

Ji Changze: "Oh, isn't it? Why don't you wait until you go back?"

"What are you waiting for to go back! Just say it here!"

If I go back and talk about it, how can everyone in the village know that Ji Changze regrets his marriage and Zhao Yueniang's miserable abandonment?

Madam Zhao Er could not wait to open Ji Changze's mouth and let him speak quickly, but she couldn't do that, she could only urge; "It's okay, if you have anything, just say it here."

When she watched Ji Changze finally begin to speak, and she was already preparing to pick up the "What? Are you retiring" lines in her belly, she heard Ji Changze's iconic slightly hoarse but very gentle voice and said embarrassingly:

"Second aunt is coming. Yueniang and I are naturally welcome, but I also hope that on the day of our marriage, don’t let Yueniang’s cousin come. This... there will be some happy money at home that day, which is not very convenient..."

The smile on the corner of Zhao Er's lady's mouth froze.

This is simply saying "Don't let your daughter come and steal things at our wedding."

After almost half a minute, she struggled to squeeze out this sentence from her throat: "You, what did you say?"

Ji Changze's face was embarrassed, but the words he said were heartbreaking: "Although you don't say right and wrong behind your back, but you insist on telling it next, let's say it next. Yueniang is worried about this marriage a lot, if it's a cousin. I went and stole... I took something that shouldn’t be taken again, and I’ll say that it’s Yueniang or I will give it to her. I don’t know when to toss it. It’s better to do it when the second aunt came. Don't bring your cousin."

Aunt Zhao Er: "..."

"you you you!"

Seeing that she couldn't say enough about her anger, Ji Changze seemed to be frightened. He stood back slightly, his face full of innocence and dazed: "Er Auntie, are you angry?"

Aunt Zhao Er: "..."

This guy said in front of so many people that her daughter is a thief. Can she not be angry? ?

Pian Ji Changze said again; "I just thought that you were an elder, thinking that we would say in private, but you have to say it now, plus you are so passionate, and you don’t mind. …Second Auntie? Second Auntie? Auntie, what did the Second Auntie say, she fell backwards?"

Just now, Auntie Zhao, who almost didn't faint, was struggling to get up. She heard Ji Changze standing in front of her saying, "I know, I'm afraid the second wife is too sad." My sister, this...unique hobby."

"Eh." He still sighed and sighed; "Pity the parents of the world."

Aunt Zhao Er: "..."

She was really dizzy now.
