Chapter 475: Scholar Tang Definitely Missed
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Madam Liang and her son moved to Shangshi Village, full of energy.
When they reached the village entrance, she saw five or six women sitting under a big tree, doing needlework and chatting.
Madam Liang raised her eyebrows. “This is a good opportunity.”
She immediately held her son’s hand and walked over. She smiled and asked, “What are you guys talking about?”
When everyone saw Madam Liang, they were shocked.
However, Madam Liang sat down beside them and even placed the basket on her back on the ground in front of them with a bang.
When she saw them subconsciously looking down at the basket, she immediately said, “Oh, you’re talking about these vegetables? My parents, brother, and sister-in-law specially picked them for me.”
No, they didn’t want to say no.
Madam Liang giggled. “You know, we’re living in the city now. We have to spend money to buy even a single green onion. My parents couldn’t bear it. It’s rare for me to go back, but they immediately picked so many vegetables for me to bring back to the county. However, I was also filial. I cut off a large piece of meat for them.”
Everyone was speechless.
Madam Liang continued, “Father and Mother have always praised me. They said that it’s rare for a married daughter to be so willing to cut off this… Such a big piece of meat went back, and he still blames me for spending money. But there’s no other way. Our Sanzhu has a promising future and has a stable job. I’m also diligent. I do some small embroidery to supplement my family’s income. When my life is good, it’s only right to send some meat to my parents, right?”
Everyone was speechless. D*mn it, they wanted to leave.
The few of them looked at each other. One of them wanted to get up and find an excuse to go home.
Madam Liang had yet to brag about her son. Seeing this, she immediately stopped and changed the topic. “By the way, what were you guys talking about just now? I haven’t been back to the village for a long time. I don’t even know what happened in the village. Tell me about it.”
Shangshi Village’s gossipy nature was as strong as ever. Although the women present did not like Madam Liang, they still told her excitedly.
“We’re talking about the Tang family.”
“The Tang family? What’s wrong with the Tang family?”
“Didn’t Scholar Tang go to the prefecture to take the provincial examination last month? Then they came back yesterday.”
Madam Liang was even more interested. It was the provincial examination. She didn’t understand this part of the general knowledge. But now that her son was already in private school and would have to participate in the provincial examination in the future, she had to understand it in advance.
Seeing that she was interested, the woman immediately started talking.
“I heard that the provincial examination just ended a few days ago. The results will be released in September, which is about ten days away. Logically speaking, the candidates and their families who had passed the imperial examination would want to know what high school did not have, right? We all thought that Scholar Tang and the others would be back in at least ten days. Who knew that they would be back yesterday?”
“When the village chief heard about it, he went to ask Scholar Tang about his condition early this morning. He asked him how he did in the exam and why he came back at this time. At that time, I followed him to see it. Scholar Tang said a bunch of words, and I was confused. However, I only heard one thing. Scholar Tang himself is not sure if he did well. He said that he would only know after the results are released.”
“If you thought you did well, you would have been waiting in the prefecture. Why did you suddenly come back?”
“I feel that either he does particularly badly. Thinking about it, at the age of Scholar Tang, it would be difficult to pass the provincial examination. It would be strange if he could be admitted. Otherwise, something must have happened in the prefecture.”
“I just can’t stand the expression of that woman from the Tang family. She always ignores me when I ask her.”
