Being rejected by a scholar? She is so rich, what is she afraid of?

Chapter 9: A Cripple Sees How You Can Take the Imperial Examination



Chapter 9: A Cripple Sees How You Can Take the Imperial Examination

After that, the cancellation of the engagement went smoothly. After what happened with Wang Daya, the Zhao family already felt guilty and did not dare to have any more entanglement with the Yun family.

Not only did Zhao Junyi apologize to Yun Xi, but other members of the Zhao family also apologized to the Yun family.

The Yun family returned Zhao Junyi's engagement letter, and the two families completely cancelled their engagement.

As soon as the Zhao family received the engagement letter, they all left together with lingering fear.

Hualalal, half of the yard was empty.

Yun Xi stared at Zhao Jia's panicked back and narrowed her eyes.

Although all the blame was now directed at Wang Daya, Yun Xi felt that the Zhao family could not be innocent in the original owner's death, especially Zhao Junyi. Yun Xi had the urge to smash him to death with a rock.

However, she also knew how much the Zhao family valued Zhao Junyi. Even the entire Zhao clan had high hopes for him, hoping that he would pass the imperial examination and become an official to change the Zhao family's fortunes.

If something really happened to Zhao Junyi in their Yun family now, the Zhao family would probably not care about anything and would fight to the death with their Yun family.

Yunxi herself may not be afraid, but there are other people at home, especially Xiaoyi and Xiaoshuai, who have no ability to protect themselves. They may take revenge on them.

Therefore, Zhao Junyi cannot get into trouble now. However...

Yun Xi scanned the space and didn't find anything suitable, so she quickly focused her attention on the needlework basket her mother kept at home. Very good, there are needles.

With one thought, the needle entered the space. With another thought...

With a thud, Zhao Junyi, who had just walked out of the Yun family yard, fell to the ground.

“Hahahaha——” The Yun clan members burst into laughter, especially Yun Yan who laughed the loudest and called it retribution.

Zhao Pingxiu and Zhang hurriedly helped him up. Zhang asked distressedly, "Son, are you okay?"

Zhao Junyi got up and pressed his knee with his hand. It clearly hurt a little just now, so why didn’t he feel anything now?

He shook his head at Zhang and said, "Mom, it's okay, go back quickly."

Although I wasn't injured, it was still embarrassing enough.

Zhang glared at everyone who was laughing, then left angrily.

After they walked away, Yun Xi slowly raised her lips. Zhao Junyi, just wait, in less than three years, a cripple will appear and see how you will pass the imperial examination.

Seeing that there was nothing else to do, the Yun clan members prepared to leave, but were kept by Yun Huaiyuan and Xi.

"Everyone, thanks to everyone's help today, I wanted to set up two tables to invite everyone to have a lively party, but the girl from the Wang family doesn't know what's going on, so we can't hold a big banquet. I'll share these silver coins with everyone, just as a treat for everyone."

As Yun Huaiyuan spoke, he took the 70-odd taels of interest from Xi and handed it to Yun Songlin, motioning him to help divide it.

Seeing that his son was ordering him around as if it was a matter of course, the old man was furious.

He handed the silver to Yun Huaishan and said, "Boss, come here. All the tribesmen who came to help today will get a share, divided by head."

Yun Huaiyuan's elder brother, Yun Huaishan, took the silver obediently, and then asked everyone to line up and counted the number of people. There were 38 adults and 11 children in total.

There were 74 taels and 443 coins in total.

Yun Huaishan pondered for a while and came up with a plan. Excluding himself, there were 37 adults, and 74 taels of silver was exactly 2 taels per person.

The remaining 443 coins are divided among the 11 children, 40 coins each. The remaining 3 coins are for yourself.

After thinking it through, he divided the money quickly.

Yun Xi saw everything his uncle did and couldn't help but admire him in his heart, thinking that his uncle was really a kind-hearted man.

When the Yun clan members received the money, they were all very happy, just like it was New Year’s Day.

I didn't expect Yun Lao Er to be so generous. He divided the 70 taels of silver without hesitation.

Two taels per person is not a small amount. If you use it all to buy food, you can buy one or two hundred kilograms of rice.

Some members of the tribe were originally a little jealous when they saw Yunxi's family get so much money all of a sudden, but now they feel relieved immediately and have become more open-minded.

Those silver coins originally belonged to the Yun family, but they were loaned out a few years ago. Now that they have been taken back, they should be divided among them.

They are generous enough to share the interest.

He is a very good person.

After getting the copper coins, the children ran happily in the yard, but they were soon caught by their parents and the copper coins were taken away.

The child rolled over and over to ask for copper coins.

The kids only stopped making trouble after the adults promised to go to town to buy some delicious food another day.

The Yun clan members chatted and laughed and left happily.

At this time, the villagers who were standing outside the yard watching the fun also dispersed one after another, their eyes red with envy.

Someone even went to tell the Zhao family members the news, and they were so angry when they heard it.

But on second thought, the Yun family has distributed money to the clansmen who helped them today, so what about the Zhao family? Should they also give some money to those who helped them?

So, a few people went to ask the Zhao family, but were sarcastically rejected by Zhang.

These people were extremely angry, but they dared not speak out.

Who asked that someone else’s son pass the exam to become a scholar?

But I felt a little unhappy in my heart, thinking that I had passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, so why was I not as good as the Yun family?

I thought that next time something happened, I would not go if it was not beneficial.

Zhang was also angry. The Yun family was so generous with the money they gave them.

They pay for the money, but the good reputation belongs to the Yun family. This is outrageous.

No, I have to talk to my son about it. We have to deal with the Yun family and not let them have an easy time.

But when she went to Zhao Junyi to tell him about her idea, he rejected it. "Mom, there are gods above us. Let's just live a peaceful life from now on and don't provoke the Yun family again."

After he said this, Zhang also thought of Wang Daya's incident and suddenly felt scared.

He patted his chest with lingering fear. Although he was unwilling, he didn't dare to have any bad thoughts.

Wang family.

After Wang Daya was carried back, her head was still bleeding. The Wang family was worried that she would dirty the house, so they had her carried directly to the woodshed.

Wu grabbed a handful of wood ash and sprinkled it on the bleeding wound, then found a piece of clothing to wrap it around her head and that was it.

Life and death are determined by fate. Whether she can wake up depends on her own luck.

The other members of the Wang family were also afraid of being unlucky, so no one was willing to guard the woodshed or take a look from time to time.

As if avoiding the plague, even if they had to pass by the woodshed, they would take a detour.
