Chapter 743 Prefer women over men, come to marry? (55)
Bai Yelang shook his head desperately and refused, "No, no, second sister, why did you have such thoughts? Studying in the imperial examinations is all done by the young masters. Our family is just an ordinary farmer, just farm and work hard. I, I, although I don't have the strength now, I eat more and will grow up soon..."
"I can be like my brothers!"
He confessed his love eagerly.
[No, don't, I want the white, tender and cute little boy, and I don't want the big and thick iron tower.]
Xiao Rao refused the strength.
On the other side, Li Siniu was thinking, "Actually, if Ye Langzhen is so talented in studying, it would be impossible to read it. I remember that the private school run by a scholar in the county can study for two months by paying one tael of silver. If you buy a cheaper one ink, paper and ink, it won't cost much. He can copy the most expensive books by himself, so he doesn't have to buy them."
"In this case, reading doesn't cost much money."
She muttered.
Bai Yelang paused.
Xiao Dachuang also looked up, "He is born with little strength and weak body. He is not well-raised innately. He may not be able to do heavy work in the future. He studied for a few years, and he will not be able to return from the exam. If he is a man of his family, he will be a duty-being person and is not a blessing to be an official. But if he can learn diligently, he will be a big shopkeeper for in the future, or go to the accountant of his house, which mansion will be in his office."
"It's as thin as a chick, how can I eat in the field?"
"I'm afraid I'll starve to death."
He said in a depressing manner, as if he was a little disgusted.
But tears came from Bai Yelang's eyes.
"Well, little sister..." Xiao Lan bit her lip with a little hesitant expression. She was someone who had been deeply betrayed by her man. She was afraid of this from the bottom of her heart. Her sister wanted to support Bai Yelang in school and spend money on him. She instinctively felt that it was not good, but...
Bai Yelang, the son-in-law, is really different from Luo Ergou and the Bai family. He is well-behaved, obedient, sensible, gentle, filial to his parents, and loves Xinghua. Most importantly, there is a light in his eyes when he looks at his sister.
"If you decide, just recite it, but even if you recite it, you can't do nothing. Moreover, if you can't get a child scholar in two or three years, just come out to do your job."
"You can't be like Li's son. After studying for more than 20 years, people who are almost forty years old will not be able to do anything, but they will use nothing. Our family doesn't have a hundred acres of fertile land."
She reminded her awkwardly.
"It's true, I think Ye Lang has talent."
Xiao Rao agreed readily.
[Of course, Bai Yelang became a third-rank official. Finally, it is said that he was appointed as the first-rank official and was granted the Taimiao after his death!] 9527 blinked his eyes, [We are good this time, but it is a potential stock for rocket ascendance.]
[We must cultivate it well and not give up halfway.]
[I know, so...well, go up the mountain in a few days and sell some tiger whips and bones, so that my sister will always worry that there is no money at home.]
Xiao Rao's eyes rolled slightly, and she curled her lips and smiled slightly.
On the other side, Bai Yelang stared at the Xiao family, and a huge sense of flattery appeared in his heart. Did they really agree to let him study?
How is that possible?
Why?
From childhood to adulthood, even in the years when he didn't sell himself, he had to pay twice, or even three or five times the effort he wanted to get. He had to be well-behaved, obedient, capable, and sensible, so that someone would be willing to give him a little kindness, but now...
Xiao family.
They, they...
No one has ever been so straightforward to him, and he doesn't want anything to do, but just treats him simply.
Tears shed in Bai Yelang's eyes.
Well, for him, those things that are satisfied with Li Siniu and Xiao Dachong... such as getting up early and going to bed late, working hard, and caring for everyone in the family, are the most basic operations, and there is no place to praise at all.
When he has arrived in a new environment and integrated into a family, every member of the family is someone his second sister cares about. How can he not do things?
He just regretted that he had not done enough.
Bai Yelang choked and his face was red.
The Xiao family looked at him helplessly and lovingly.
Well, except for Xiao Xinghua, he is the youngest at home, so he is inevitably more indulgent to him.
"Okay, little crybag, don't cry, your eyes will hurt again later. Let's take a walk, take the money, let's spend money to buy some clothes for you, I see you will change your clothes."
Xiao Rao smiled slightly, stretched out her fingers to wipe away the tears from his cheeks, turned around and said goodbye to his family, then held his hand and walked out of the yard.
Xiao Dachuan and Li Siniu looked at their backs until they disappeared. They turned their heads and smiled at each other.
"Tiger, Rao'er and his son-in-law won't come back at noon. You can cook, I want to eat fried sweet potato meatballs."
Li Siniu raised her head, grinned, and her tone was a little soft.
Xiao Dachuan frowned, "The sweet potato balls are too oily and you can't melt them. You should have stomachache again at night. Let's bake them. The baking is soft and glutinous, and the sugar is delicious."
"I want meatballs!" Li Siniu pulled her face down and became unhappy.
"Stop making trouble, I'll kill a chicken and stew it." Xiao Dachuan whispered, holding his wife's shoulder with one hand, coaxing her back to the house to rest. Then, he tied the apron, picked up the kitchen knife, grabbed the fatest hen from the chicken coop and tied it up, and started to burn the fire.
Xiao Lan held her daughter and watched the scene silently, feeling inexplicably uncomfortable in her stomach.
Both my mother and my sister have men.
She had, but...
Thinking of Luo Ergou's dead look, Xiao Lan suddenly shook her head and tried her best to warn herself in her heart.
Being single is good, being single is good, being single can live until old age.
Men, you don’t need to, don’t exist, die far away, don’t get in the way of her eyes.
Xiao Lan coldly beneath her face and took Xiao Xinghua back to the house.
In the yard, the hens were tied tightly and made a sarcastic cry of "giggles".
Only the hurt world can be easily achieved.

Xiao Rao took Bai Yelang without taking a ox cart, and came to Qingxian all the way. They were not in a hurry to buy things, but began to wander around the county town, occasionally saying a few words and smiling at each other.
There is a sweet atmosphere between each other.
Xiao Rao bought fabric for Bai Yelang. Li Siniu told her that she would help with it herself, and bought some things he needed to use in daily life...such as bed clothes and pants.
Xiao Rao wants to sew one for him with his own hands.
"I know your size, sew it out and you will definitely feel comfortable wearing it."
She leaned into his ear and smiled lightly.
Bai Yelang was so hot that it was almost smoking, "Second Sister!"
He was embarrassed and angry.
The two of them were making fun of each other, and time passed quickly, and it was noon in a blink of an eye, and they were both hungry.
Xiao Rao took him to the restaurant...the one she knew was the one opened by a fur merchant, with a discount.
The two walked in. The building was quite lively. The hall was full of people and there were no empty seats. Fortunately, the shopkeeper knew Xiao Rao, so he asked the waiter to take them to the second floor to sit.
The two of them did not refuse and walked upstairs with each other. As a result, before they could sit down, they saw two familiar figures at a glance!
"Bai Xi Niang?"
