Chapter 138 Xie Xiuwen's Worries
In the evening, the whole family stayed at Zhuangzi, and Xie Rongzhaolai refused to come down from Xie Xiuwen's arms, pestering him to tell stories.

"Baby, do you like your brother?"

"I like it, Brother Little Wolf is sensible, and he listens to me."

Xie Xiuwen smiled, his own baby is really easy to satisfy.

"Father, is the money in our family enough for you to go to Beijing for the exam?"

Xie Xiuwen nodded: "Enough. Your third uncle has already given me half a year's profit, more than 100 taels, plus the 200 taels of congratulations sent by the county magistrate, it is more than enough for us to enter Beijing."

Xie Rongzhao was stunned for a moment, then turned his head and looked at him: "Father, are you talking about us?"

Xie Xiuwen smiled and pinched her face: "Well, let's!"

Xie Rongzhao's eyes widened, and the light inside seemed to burst out of the eye sockets, directly surrounding this beautiful father.

"Father, is it true? Is our family going?"

Xie Xiuwen smiled, and motioned her to keep it secret.

"I haven't told your aunt about this matter yet. You are the first to know about it. Let's keep it a secret for now. When the time comes, I will tell your aunt to know."

Xie Rongzhao thought that they met several groups of people here today and asked a lot of questions, so he already had guesses in his heart.

"Father wants to take us to the capital to settle down?"

Xie Xiuwen hugged her into his arms again, "Baby, although our money is barely enough, we may have to save some money after we go to the capital. Dad doesn't have much money. I don't think there's much going on in this village, and the shop won't be able to make any money until the end of the year."

Xie Rongzhao clapped his hands and said, "Father, don't panic, my baby is rich."

Xie Xiuwen raised his eyebrows: "Where did you get the money?"

Neither Xie Rongzhao nor Cheng Jingzhou dared to mention the 1000 taels of silver in the letter. Later, because Xie Xiuwen had to take an exam, neither of them mentioned it. After a long time, they both forgot about it.

Of course, Cheng Jingzhou was instructed by Xie Rongzhao not to mention the money, for fear of being tricked.

"The last time I was in town, Uncle gave it to me."

Xie Rongzhao explained the matter in detail, and Xie Xiuwen looked at his daughter in astonishment. He got 1000 taels so casually?

Why does it feel so unreal?
Is he dreaming, or is Guaibao dreaming and getting money?

"Is what you said true?"

"Of course, Uncle Zhao also gave me a jade pendant, but brother Jingzhou said that you can't carry it with you casually, and I'm too young now, so I put it away."

"Well, Baby is really my dad's little lucky star. If you come to accompany daddy's township examination, daddy will win the prize! This time daddy will take you to participate in the general examination, hoping to get some good luck from you, and then daddy can be on the list, it's not in vain for you mother and daughter to suffer."

"Hee hee, let me just say that I am a little lucky girl. With me here, Dad will definitely be able to pass high school."

"Having said that, baby, did you feel unwell when Dad took the exam?"

Xie Rongzhao blinked, then shook his head in a daze: "No."

"Then since you saw daddy in Fucheng last time, have you ever felt a headache or something uncomfortable?"

Xie Rongzhao shook his head again: "Father, what's wrong with you? If I'm not feeling well, I'll definitely tell you! And I'm in your arms right now, I'm fine!"

After saying that, Xie Rongzhao realized something, his face tensed up, and his eyes became hot.

She got it.

Dad was worried that good luck would come back to her, so he kept asking her about her health.

"Father, I'm fine, I'm fine. My good luck won't bring bad luck."

Xie Xiuwen hugged his daughter tightly and didn't say much.

If it's okay once or twice, it can be said to be a coincidence.

But it happened several times in a row, Xie Xiuwen had to think more.

Although the sage said: Zibuyu blames the gods and chaotic powers, but when this kind of thing happened to his daughter, he had to be paranoid.

This time I want to take them to the capital because I heard that there is an eminent monk in the Huguo Temple in the capital. If I can get some advice from him, it may be of great benefit to Guaibao, and it can also completely reassure him.

"Baby, if you feel unwell, you must tell Dad. Dad is now a master of juren. Even if you don't win the Jinshi, no one in Gaoyang County will dare to look down on us. Dad only hopes that you can grow up well, grow up safely, and there will be no disasters. Do you understand?"

Xie Rongzhao nodded heavily: "Well, I understand."

Xie Xiuwen did value power, but no matter how important he was, he couldn't sacrifice his daughter's health.

If he fails this time, at worst, he will try again in a few years.

If something happens to Guaibao, then he will regret it for the rest of his life!
The next day, Xie Xiuwen specially called Fang Hu's family over, and after asking some questions, he left Fang Hu alone.

"If there are no accidents, I will go to the capital with my family in about 200 days. You are familiar with the capital. There are [-] taels of silver notes here. In addition to your own expenses on the road, after arriving in the capital, try to find a way to rent a secluded but safe yard, preferably a second-entry one. If the host asks, you can only say that you will rent for one year first. If you don't have enough money, you can pay less and make up for it after I arrive in Beijing."

Fang Hu took the bank note: "Master, the younger one lived in the capital for three years before. If he rents a yard in an outer city, 100 taels is enough to live for a year. There must be surplus money."

Xie Xiuwen smiled gently: "If there are any leftovers, you can buy some necessary things first, and then I will bring your family to Beijing together, and I won't let your flesh and blood be separated."

"Yes, thank you sir."

"You must keep this matter a secret, and you must not say anything about it, even your wife, you must not reveal a word."

"The little man understands."

Xie Xiuwen returned to Mingshan Academy and was extremely busy for half a month. On average, he couldn't sleep for three hours a day, and he had to read a book when he opened his eyes.

Seeing that his cousin, who had already won the Juren, was still working so hard, Xie Zhou felt admiration in his heart, and secretly made up his mind that he would not slack off in the future, he must study hard, and strive to earn fame for his family back home.

Xie Xiuwen met Zhao Yue again here, and after confirming the date of going to Beijing, he had to find a way to go back and bring his family over.

Xie Xiuwen knew that old mother too well, if he directly said that he wanted to take them to the capital, the old lady would definitely thwart it in every possible way, and even try her best to coax the money in their hands.

How to pick up people, naturally have to think of a perfect plan.

It can neither make the family suspicious, but also do it reasonably, so as not to be blamed by them as a mistake in the future.

"Uncle, just now the boy next to Mr. Xu came over to send a message, saying that Mr. Xu and Mr. Xu have invited you to come over and discuss something important."
