Chapter 208 Checks and Balances
The fox sighed: "Now you know how to study when you come back every day."
"Otherwise, what should I do? I'm going to take the child exam in less than two months. What else can I do if I don't read? Damn it, this damn classical Chinese text makes my head explode. All the things that people need to learn in three to five years are condensed.
It's been a few months, do you think I can take my time? If I don't do well in this exam, I will have to wait three years for the next children's exam, and I don't want to stay with a dead old man for three years."
She felt that this agreement was a trap set by Old Man Yan. She always thought that the child exam was just like the final exam, but later she learned that the child exam was held every three years.
If she can't get through this time, she won't be able to leave here.
"Then are you sure he will keep his promise 100%?"
"Who knows."
"Then why do you still listen to him?"
"It's a way of repaying him for giving me this status. Regardless of whether I will be a national master in the future or not, now that I have this status here and the protection of this status, my family will be much better off in the capital."
But she can't always rely on this identity. Old Man Yan also has a great disciple, whose name seems to be Yan Ci. If nothing unexpected happens, the person who will inherit the position of national master in the end will be Yan Ci, not her.
She is still very clear about her own position. If he were Old Man Yan, from his perspective, he would never hand over Tianyi Kingdom to someone like her, because it would easily cause a bloody storm.
"But you also saved his life."
The day after Liu and Zhang Zhong got married, it was August 15th. That night, the family was sitting in the yard eating melon seed moon cakes and admiring the moon. The little white fox squatted on the table and wiped all the plate of cakes clean.
It's not too cold on August 15th, but everyone in the family, whether it's Liu or Xiaodouding, is very conscious about dressing themselves up.
"Yes, I saved his life, but he also gave me the status of a junior national master, and when my mother got married, he also gave me so many things, which is considered even. Many times when people get along with each other, they rely on
Interests involve each other, but they also check and balance each other. If you want to have a good relationship, you must not be unbalanced or greedy for too much. Things like debt and favor are easy to use, but they cannot be used frequently. If they are used frequently, the gain outweighs the gain."
"You humans are really troublesome." The fox tugged at his clothes impatiently, and the black and gold robe slipped off, revealing his fragrant collarbone. Seeing that Xiao Xi didn't even look at him, he angrily turned into a little white fox and flicked his tail back to space.
Gone inside.
I originally wanted to have a rare night's sleep, but I was woken up early by the sound outside.
"I really like to eat sweets." The main thing is that this guy doesn't get fat no matter how much he eats. According to what he means, he is one with the space, and the energy of the food he eats can be converted into energy in the space.
The first August 15th day after leaving Zhangcun passed like this. The next day, Xiaoxi wanted to go to the store but did not go to the church.
Xiao Xi ignored him. All her energy was now focused on the children's examination. She must pass the child examination in two months.
Mrs. Liu said happily: "Xie'er, this little fox you raised really likes sweets."
When eating mooncakes, Mrs. Liu used a knife to cut them into pieces. Xiaoxi didn't like sweet ones and refused to eat them after taking one bite. The little white fox was responsible for disposing of Xiaoxi's remaining mooncakes without any courtesy.
She put on her clothes and went out to see what was going on.
It was Zhuzi who was in Zhangcun before and brought a few children to find him.
Xiao Xi wondered what happened. Could it be that there was no food at home?
No, before she left, she replaced the sorghum seeds at home with improved varieties in the space. Plus, there was so much land in the Zhang family, so she shouldn't be hungry.
