Chapter 579: Buying a Brocade Sachet

When Old man w.a.n.g heard Ah Yu’s shout, his first reaction was to look for Old Madam w.a.n.g. When he saw that Old Madam w.a.n.g looked good, his furrowed eyebrows relaxed. “Why are you only here now? I’ve already laid out new blankets for you two days ago. I’ve just gotten someone to take it out to dry, and you’re suddenly here.”

Old Madam w.a.n.g did not listen to Old man w.a.n.g’s greetings at all. “Didn’t you move the things from the carriage? Why are you pretending here?”

Old man w.a.n.g:”…” Couldn’t he show some concern for this old woman?

Previously, when they went to Fuji Temple, the carriages followed them. When they arrived at Three Thoughts Street, large carriages were not allowed to enter. They could only be stored in the livestock workshop and paid a sum of rations every day.

Chi Jia had already sent someone to deliver the rest of the things.

The person who was talking to Old man w.a.n.g saw that his posture had changed greatly and asked in surprise, “Brother w.a.n.g, this is Sister-in-law?”

Seeing Old man w.a.n.g nod, the person bowed to Old Madam w.a.n.g and introduced himself. “Sister-in-law, how are you? I’m from the Jiang Mansion on the east side of Yuhua Street. My name is Jiang Rong. It’s our first time meeting. Please forgive me if I’ve made a mistake.”

“Jiang Rong?” Old Madam w.a.n.g sized up the person in front of her who looked to be in his seventies or eighties and said casually, “Is your mother, Matriarch Jiang, still alive?”

Jiang Rong hurriedly said, “Mother is still around. She’s resting elsewhere now.”

Old Madam w.a.n.g looked at Old man w.a.n.g. “Have you collected the money she owed us back then?”

Old man w.a.n.g did not even remember and shook his head honestly. “No.”

Hence, Old Madam w.a.n.g looked at Jiang Rong with a smile and a very kind expression.

However, being kind to someone who looked older than her did not make her feel close.

Jiang Rong:”…”

What debt? Didn’t he meet Brother w.a.n.g by chance and hit it off with him at first sight?

“This is not the place to talk. Everyone, come inside.” w.a.n.g Chuangui’s voice sounded, and everyone saw him standing in the courtyard.

The courtyard was part.i.tioned into too many sections, and only one atrium was open for everyone to stroll around. Therefore, there were many people dressed as students sitting in the atrium. Some of them even held books in their hands, but their necks were stretched like a snail’s. No one believed that they were revising their work.

w.a.n.g Chuangui was also holding a book, but his book was different from others. It was a book about the Great Chang. He had sorted it out himself. The exam was about to begin, and he was afraid that he would forget some minor details, so he took it out and read it again.

Several years have pa.s.sed, but w.a.n.g Chuangui’s “remarkable” act of giving up his position in the imperial civil service examination still circulated among the candidates. As soon as he arrived at the w.a.n.g family’s courtyard, he was surrounded and protected by fellow scholars.

They were either asking him how he pa.s.sed the imperial civil service examination or why he had given up.

From his initial resistance, w.a.n.g Chuangui had simply used their curiosity to get them to provide him with other information. He was like a fish in water.

Everyone wanted to choose the most secluded small house as soon as they entered the property. It was indeed pitifully small. There was only a main room with a study, a small kitchen, a small toilet, and a servant room.

Even the was.h.i.+ng area was only a few steps wide.

Among the few small houses left behind by Old Madam w.a.n.g, only one was more s.p.a.cious. It was located in the inner courtyard. Not only were there stone tables and stools, but there was also a swing.

Ah Yu knew at a glance that it was a small residence specially left for her.

They brought the remaining things in and placed them simply. All Yu was still worried about the charity hall and did not partic.i.p.ate in Old Madam w.a.n.g’s conversation. She pulled Qin Huai out again.

“Grandma, we’ll go out first!” Ah Yu greeted Old Madam w.a.n.g.

Old Madam w.a.n.g said, “We’ll go out for a walk. We’ll talk about the rest after Qin Huai finishes the exam.”

Ah Yu: “Got it!”

Of course, she understood what Grandma meant. She didn’t want her to care about the charity hall.

However, although Ah Yu knew her intentions, she really did not intend to care.

She still remembered that Big Brother Ah You’s Shared Fate Gu had yet to be cured!

Moreover, their family did not have any relatives in Wanning City. It was fine if they were in the right, and the governor was a fair and honest official.

But if she wanted to be a busybody, she would be causing trouble for herself. It would not be good if she did not handle it well and affected Big Brother Ah You’s future prospects.

After leaving the door, Ah Yu said, “Big Brother Ah You, let’s not go to the charity hall. When we were on the boat, I heard that there’s a Civil Star Temple beside Three Thoughts Street. Let’s go and pray for a talisman!”

Qin Huai: “Alright.”

He told Chi Jia and the others not to follow and to do their own things.

Chi Jia agreed and brought people to the drill ground to train.

The Young Master was about to develop in Wanning City. It was time to use the people they had nurtured previously.

As for the Young Master’s safety, Chi Jia was not worried at all.

As soon as they arrived at Wanning City, Duke Yong Manor, the Empress, and Emperor Minghua had sent a message to him that the protection of everyone was in place, so there was no need for them to worry.

It would be a waste not to use the guards they picked up for free. Their people could be saved to train more.

The examination was about to begin. There were already many people outside the Civil Star Temple. Some were asking for talismans, some were drawing lots, and some were writing poems and selling their skills here.

Unexpectedly, most of the people here were women and there were rarely any men. Other than the poetry sellers, very few men were dressed like scholars. “Big Brother All You, isn’t Civil Star Temple about protecting scholars? What are these Big Sisters doing here?”

Qin Huai thought for a moment and replied, “The scholars are always busy preparing for the exam and don’t have time to come.”

Unexpectedly, someone beside her burst out laughing. It was a woman selling embroidered brocade bags. She smiled and said, “Young Master, you’re wrong. It’s not that they’re busy preparing for the exam, but those students and scholars care about their reputation. They all say that they don’t believe in the supernatural. So, the closer it is to the imperial examination, the less they come, afraid that others will see them. Therefore, the people here are all the family members or admirers of those students.”

Ah Yu came to a realization. “I see! But Lord Civil Star is so busy, so it’s impossible for him to protect all the students. Everyone just treats it as psychological comfort and deliberately avoids coming here to save face. Isn’t that the same as revealing what they intended to hide?”

The big sister selling the brocade bag was also a little knowledgeable. When she heard Ah Li say this, she immediately had a good impression of her. “Young lady, you know a little. Then did you come with your brother today because you have an examinee at home? You already said that it’s psychological comfort. Why don’t you buy one of my brocade bags too?”

“Auntie, you’re wrong. Big Brother Ah You isn’t my Big Brother. He’s my fiance. He’s also an examinee. I brought him here to buy talismans to benefit from the good fortune!”

Ah Yu said it openly, causing her sister to laugh loudly. On the other hand, Qin Huai’s ears turned red.

The surrounding people also vaguely heard it and revealed kind smiles.

It was not a strange thing for a young couple to be engaged. However, since their relations.h.i.+p was so good, it was rare for them to come to the temple together to ask for the Civil Star Talisman.

Ah Yu bought more than one brocade bag. In fact, she bought 10. Other than Qin Huai’s, there were also the other examinees at home, including Second Uncle and her seven Big Brothers, and her little brother, Zhu’er. There were exactly ten of them in total.

The eldest sister smiled. “Your family has a lot of people and many candidates.. This is a good thing!”
