The country road was full of potholes, the people in the carriage were staggering, and the slow-moving carriage stopped suddenly. The servant who drove the carriage jumped out of the carriage and stopped a villager from a village to ask for directions.

"How to get to Wujia Village?"

"Go along this path, and you will find the village in front of you." The folks replied.

Su Yue leaned against the car window and looked at the mountains and rivers outside.

This world is so small, if you ask for directions, you can find an acquaintance. The fellow who was stopped to ask for directions is Wu Tong from the same village as Wu Dachun.

Sitting in the car, Su Yue smiled at Wu Tong who was carrying water by the roadside, "What a coincidence, it's you."

Wu Tong was also very pleasantly surprised, "What a coincidence, how did I meet you here?"

Sun Yinglian who was sitting in the carriage had also seen Wu Tong, sitting in the carriage and listening to the conversation outside, she nervously tugged at the sleeve of Su Yue who was talking to someone.

"Go to visit relatives. There is a relative who happens to be in the country and lives nearby." Su Yue blinked at the person.

Wu Tong let out an oh, and stood by the side of the road carrying a burden, his mouth was open and he wanted to say something.

At this time, under the urging of Sun Yinglian, the servant of the Sun family drove away in the carriage.

"What are you worried about?" Su Yue put down the car curtain, turned her head and said to Sun Yinglian, "I wanted to say a few more words so that Wu Tong could go to my tea shed to tell stories when he has time."

Sun Yinglian didn't answer, but asked nervously and somewhat expectantly, "You said I went to see him secretly like this, what if he finds out? What should I say?"

Su Yue looked at Sun Yinglian and smiled, "You are such a silly girl." After thinking for a while, she said seriously, "Just say you are visiting relatives. The countryside is so big, we are not allowed to have relatives living in the countryside."

Sun Yinglian nodded numbly, "It seems that I am too nervous."

"I've never liked anyone before, so I don't know what it's like to like someone, but I see that when my sister sees my brother-in-law, she will also blush and make mistakes, just like you worry about gains and losses." Su Yue hugged Sun Yinglian, "You like Wu Dachun so much, do you want me to talk to Wu Dachun and tell him that you like him."

"No, no." Sun Yinglian jumped up in fright, "I don't want him to know that I've been here, I just want to come and see him, to see the place where he grew up, what kind of mountains and rivers raised him."

"Just kidding you."

The two laughed together, the carriage stopped suddenly, and the servant's voice came from outside, "Wu Family Village is here."

Su Yue pulled Sun Yinglian up, sat up straight, after some jokes, Sun Yinglian calmed down a lot, opened the curtain, and got off the carriage.

The carriage was parked under a tree on the hillside, across a winding river, it was located in a small village with white walls and black tiles, with smoke from the kitchen, simple and natural.

There is a farmhouse across the river. A woman walked out of the dilapidated house. The woman came out with a dustpan and vegetable leaves to feed the chickens. The woman’s cough could be heard clearly across the river, and the dustpan in her arms trembled amidst the coughing sound. Towering, as if it was about to fall the next moment.

Just now, the servant inquired that the farmhouse opposite the small river was the home of Wu Juren, who had just won the third place.

Wu Juren, who just entered the third place, is also Wu Dachun.

Under the tree, Sun Yinglian's eyes turned red, "It's so pitiful."

Wu Dachun was born in a poor family. Before coming here, Sun Yinglian had thousands of imaginations. When she came here, she saw the dilapidated houses surrounded by fences. This scene made her feel distressed and pity her to tears.

In the rice field next to the house, two men, one old and one young, are pulling the plow to plow the land. The rice has just been harvested, and every household is preparing to plow the land to plant winter vegetables for a season.

Other families drove their cattle or buffaloes to plow the land, but only this family plowed the land with plows and harrows.

Sun Yinglian looked at the boy who was pulling the plow rope in front of the rice field, and tears fell down.

This young man was Wu Dachun, who was from a poor family and didn't even have a single ox for arable land.

Su Yue also recognized the young man plowing the land. The cattle in a farmer's family are equivalent to a large labor force, and are more valuable than people. Now that it is busy farming season, who would be willing to lend out their cattle.

Sun Yinglian anxiously called out to her servant, "Go and find out, where did the farm's old cattle go?"

Early in the morning, the servant was instructed to order around, and he was so busy that he was dizzy. He took the order and ran away, walked across the wooden bridge over the small river, and went to the village to inquire.

Soon, the servant got the news that Wu Dachun's old cattle had just been sold to a family in the village.

"That's good, that's good." Sun Yinglian was overjoyed, took out a purse of banknotes that she carried with her when she went out, and threw it to the servant, "Go and buy that old scalper back. You can see if the money is enough."

The servant didn't understand what his second lady wanted to do?The second lady is naughty, sometimes windy and sometimes rainy, Chef Sun can't do anything about her, but seeing his second lady crying so sadly, as an old man at home who has watched the second lady grow up, the servant is a little distressed He opened his purse without hesitation, looked at it, "Enough is enough, with so much money, let alone one old scalper, you can buy two of them." After saying that, he turned and ran to the farmer's house to buy old scalpers.

When the family member left, Sun Yinglian fell on Su Yong's shoulder and cried softly, "I just want him to be well, not to worry, to be able to study in peace and carefree, and to take his Jinshi exam well, don't worry about it. distracted by other trivial matters."

"I know, I know." Su Yue put his arms around her shoulders and comforted her, "When the old scalper buys it back, there will be cattle farming land, and Wu Dachun can squeeze out more time to read books."

The maid Bi Tao who came with her saw her young lady crying, and she was crying too, her eyes were red.

Sun Yinglian wiped her tears with her sleeve, "I don't want him to plow the plow for the oxen, I don't want him to chop firewood, I don't want him to carry water and water vegetables, I just want him to read his books well."

For children from poor families, taking the imperial examination to become an official is the only way to get out of the poor family.

"Stop crying, you should be happy." Su Yue said, "Wu Dachun came from a poor family, but he is ambitious. Qiu Wei passed the third-class exam. In the spring of next year, Wu Dachun will be admitted as a Jinshi, and he will be successful. .”

Sun Yinglian looked at the direction opposite the small river, with infinite expectations in her eyes.

Seeing the servant of the Sun family leading an old ox from the field ridge, and quietly tied the old ox to a tree near the rice field, Sun Yinglian smiled, "Let's go back."

Su Yue nodded and said yes.

On the way back from Wujia Village, Su Yue could clearly feel that Sun Yinglian's mood had improved a lot. Su Yue lifted the curtain of the car and pointed to the trees and grass outside to show her. Sun Yinglian pursed her lips and followed Su Yue's hand , Looking out at the flowers and trees.
