Lucky men are the last to have children, and fertile women are the last to have children

Chapter 478: The Delicate and Soft Sister-in-law VS the Black-hearted Brother-in-law Who Was Borrowed for Seed 28
Chen Mufeng just stared at her like this, his eyes slightly red, as if he had a thousand words to say.

After a while.

He choked up and said, "Okay, I will live up to Third Sister-in-law's expectations. I will go all out in this autumn exam to bring honor to the Chen family and make Third Sister-in-law happy."

After saying this, he put the silver into his sleeve, which was considered as accepting it.

Even if I stuffed the silver back, my third sister-in-law would not take it.

The only way I can repay her is to get good grades and make her happy.

Seeing him accept it, Yu Yao heaved a sigh of relief and curled her lips slightly, "Okay, I'll wait for the day when you become the top scorer in the imperial examination and return home in glory. But remember, don't put too much pressure on yourself, or it will be counterproductive, understand?"

The last sentence is meant to remind him.

Many students who write very good essays perform poorly in the examination room.

The reason is nothing more than too much pressure and too much tension.

Chen Mufeng naturally understood this truth, his face became serious, and he said seriously: "Thank you for the reminder, Third Sister-in-law. I'll remember it."

"Okay, go back to your room and hide the things in your sleeves so no one can see them."

She gave a reminder and turned around to continue her work.

Chen Mufeng nodded slightly, hid the silver and the four treasures of the study in his sleeve, turned around and left the kitchen.

He quickly returned to his room, entered the room and quickly closed the door.

I finally felt relieved.

He walked to the bed and sat down, took out the 100 taels of silver and the four treasures of the study, and was in a daze for a long time.

Although Chen Mufeng didn't know the value of this set of four treasures of the study, he estimated that it would not be less than 50 taels.

The third sister-in-law worked day and night on embroidery. I don’t know how long it took her to save up so much money.

But he gave them all to himself, and this feeling was so heavy that it made it difficult for him to breathe.

His eyes became moist and he reached out and gently stroked the set of four treasures of the study in front of him.

The pen holder is made of top-grade red sandalwood, which has a warm wood texture, fine texture and a faint luster.

The northern top-grade wolf hair brush is soft and elastic, and you can seem to feel the power contained in it when you touch it.

The ink is top-grade Hui ink, with a subtle fragrance and fine texture.

Xuan paper is as white as snow, delicate and resilient. When shaken gently, it makes a slight rustling sound.

The inkstone is a rare old pit Longwei inkstone, with a warm stone texture, exquisite carvings, and an ancient texture to the touch.

These objects are cool to the touch, yet smooth and delicate, and every detail reveals their preciousness.

But in his heart, the warmth these things brought far exceeded their own value.

"Yao'er, just wait. I will definitely earn a bright future for you. Even if it can't be done honestly, I will give you the best of everything."

His voice was choked and his eyes were full of tears.

He didn't want to call her the third sister-in-law, as if if he didn't call her that, there would be no such relationship between them.

After admiring it for a long time, he carefully hid the 100 taels of silver and the set of four treasures of the study in the innermost part of his bag.

It was carefully covered with several layers of clothing to ensure that it would not be easily discovered.

In the kitchen.

Yu Yao first washed the pork and cut it into pieces, making sure each piece was cut into even sizes with the right amount of fat and lean.

Then she lit a big fire in the stove. The flames danced happily in the stove, making her face red.

Pour oil into the pan, and when the oil is hot, add onion, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant.

In an instant, a rich fragrance filled the kitchen.

She put the chopped meat into the pot. With a sizzling sound, the aroma of the meat and the fragrance of onion, ginger and garlic blended perfectly, becoming even more tempting.

Zhao smelled the aroma from afar, walked into the kitchen with a smile, and joked, "Third sister-in-law, your cooking skills are really getting better and better. I can smell the aroma of meat from afar, let me light the fire for you."

As she spoke, she walked to the stove and sat down, picked up a handful of firewood beside her and added it to the stove. The fire became stronger and the flames roared.

Yu Yao cut some ginger and minced garlic, and chuckled, "Then I'll trouble you, sister-in-law. It saves me from running back and forth."

The two sisters-in-law were talking and laughing.

On the contrary, Qian, who was supposed to cook today, disappeared.

While Zhao was adding firewood to the stove, she seemed to remember something, looked around, and saw that no one came to the kitchen, so she lowered her voice and asked, "Third brother's wife, have you ever thought about dividing the family?" Before, Third Brother was paralyzed and couldn't move, so Third Brother's wife naturally didn't want to divide the family. But now the situation is different, Third Brother's health is gradually getting better, and he has begun to walk.

Maybe because I have been paralyzed for too long, my legs and feet are very thin and I don’t have much strength, so I can’t walk a few steps. But it won’t be long before I will be completely well again.

Yu Yao paused, her expression complicated, "Sister-in-law, I haven't really thought about this. Although there are some problems at home now, we are still a family after all. If we really want to separate, I'm afraid it will be unpleasant. Besides, my husband hasn't mentioned this matter, so I can't make my own decision."

Split up the family? If we split up the family, there won't be all these messy things, and life will be more peaceful.

But in her heart, she actually wants to be with the male protagonist more. After all, he is the biological father of the child in her belly. He is handsome, gentle, and exudes a scholarly air.

In any case, he is more likable than Chen Xiuyuan.

When Chen Mufeng passes the imperial examination and becomes the top scorer, no matter he stays in the capital or is sent by the emperor to serve as an official elsewhere, no one will know their identities and past.

As long as we keep it a secret from my hometown, we can still live a happy life.

Chen Mufeng is the male protagonist of the plane. He has gathered the luck of heaven and earth, so there is no problem of him failing the exam.

In fact, the officials will become more and more powerful.

After hearing her words, Zhao sighed lightly, but didn't say anything else. The two of them turned to talk about other things.

The meal was finished while they were chatting and laughing.

Except for a plate of bright red and fragrant braised pork, the rest of the dishes are fresh vegetables picked from the backyard garden.

Although it is a vegetable, it is fried with good color, aroma and taste.

The bone soup that was originally stewed on the small stove is not ready yet. It needs to be simmered over low heat, which will take a long time. I estimate that it can only be drunk in the evening.

White hot steam came out from the cracks in the earthenware jar, carrying a strong aroma of meat, filling the kitchen.

At noon, the family gathered together for lunch. When they saw the braised pork on the table, they all smiled happily.

Chen Xiuyuan did not continue lying in the room. He was supported by Chen Xiutian and came out to eat with everyone in the main room.

His complexion was much better than before, and his eyes were brighter.

Of course, I am also more confident.

When Old Man Chen saw Chen Xiuyuan sitting in the main room eating with everyone, he was very happy and his mouth never closed.

He personally picked up a piece of braised pork with chopsticks and put it in Chen Xiuyuan's bowl, and said happily: "Third brother, you have just recovered, eat more to replenish your body. This meat was bought by your wife in town, try it."

"Thank you dad."

Chen Xiuyuan looked at his father, then at the braised pork in the bowl, and thanked him happily.

Then, he picked up the chopsticks and started eating. As soon as he tasted the braised pork, he knew it was made by his wife. It was soft and had an excellent texture. It was delicious.

Old Man Chen smiled, picked up another piece of braised pork and put it in Chen Mufeng's bowl, and said with a smile: "Liu Lang, you have worked hard in studying, so you should eat more to replenish your body."

Chen Mufeng also smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, Dad."

Wang looked at the braised pork, and although she was very greedy, she couldn't show it because after all, it was Yu Yao who bought it.

She snorted coldly and kept eating, only glancing at the braised pork from time to time.

The atmosphere at the dinner table was quite harmonious, with everyone talking and laughing.

Even Qian stopped finding fault. She kept using her chopsticks to pick up pieces of braised pork from the bowl and ate them piece by piece at a very fast speed.

The way he eats is extremely ugly.

Wang was furious and started to curse: "You shameless thing, you never stop eating? Is this meat for you? None of the men in the family eat as much as you do."

Qian was so frightened that she almost dropped her chopsticks on the ground. Fortunately, she caught them in time and retorted aggrievedly, "Didn't I just eat two more pieces? Is it worth yelling at me like this?"

Wang's face was grim, and she pointed at Qian, "Are those two pieces? You ate almost half of the plate. You do nothing all day, you are lazy and greedy. Are you a reincarnated sow?"

This successfully made the people eating at the table laugh.

Even Yu Yao couldn't help laughing out loud, causing Chen Mufeng to look at her several times, and his expression was also full of laughter.

Qian's face turned red, she felt ashamed and angry, and she couldn't help but want to refute.

Chen Xiuhe glared back at her and snorted, "Don't eat the braised pork again. If you dare to take another bite, I'll break your hand. You have no shame, but I still have some."

Qian felt so aggrieved that she put down her chopsticks, stood up, and kicked the stool behind her to the ground.

She angrily yelled at Chen Xiuhe, "I am so unlucky to marry into your family. You said you were a wealthy family in the village, but you are so poor that you can't even afford meat. You are such a useless man. Chen Xiuhe, I tell you, I will take my son back to my parents' home tomorrow."

After saying that, she ran out of the main room crying, went back to her own room, and slammed the door shut, causing the door panel to shake.

Chen Xiuhe's face was grim. He slammed his chopsticks on the table, turned around and shouted outside the hall: "If you want to leave, then leave by yourself. If you leave, don't come back. If you dare to take my son back, I will beat you to death."
