Time Travel: Remarrying a Little Wolf Dog

Chapter 277 Su Xia

That’s a lot of money earned in just over a month!

They didn't dare tell anyone, for fear that people around them would be too jealous and take away their jobs.

But just revealing a part of it was enough to make the rest of the village envious.

These days, Su's mother has gained many more relatives and sisters, both openly and secretly.

Now everyone in the factory is quick and efficient, and careful and meticulous.

I was afraid that I would be kicked out if I didn’t do well.

Su Erlang and his mother would really check the quality, and if it was not done well, it would have to be redone.

If the product is not good and the fabric is wasted, money will be deducted.

Of course, as long as they work hard, the Su family will not deliberately hold them back.

On the other hand, everyone's attitude towards the Su family also underwent a 360-degree change.

When we first got this job, everyone just had this idea, thinking that Su Yan was a good person and wanted to give back to the village.

After actually receiving the money, everyone expressed their gratitude openly, and they couldn't wait to thank Su's mother when they saw her.

Set up a longevity tablet for Su Yan at home!

Aunt Chun helped Su's mother to inspect the last of the clothes, bundle them together, and cover them carefully with oil paper.

“This is the last batch.”

Mother Su wiped the sweat from her forehead and said, "Yes! The New Year is coming in a few days, and we won't need so many clothes."

"Everyone can now take some time off to buy New Year's goods."

Aunt Chun laughed out loud, "Thanks to Yanyan, we can have a prosperous new year this year!"

Everyone in the factory stayed there. When they heard this, they burst into laughter.

A cheerful woman answered, "That's right! I've been thinking about taking the money to the town to buy New Year's goods for a long time. This year I'll buy a big pig's head to offer to our ancestors, and pray that we will have a prosperous next year."

"Yes, yes, we need to buy a pig's head. We didn't have money in previous years, so this year we need to prepare a good meal for our ancestors."

"Alas, I am slow and earn less than you do, so I can only cut some meat for our ancestors as a token of my appreciation."

Aunt Chun: "Old Ninth Wife, don't be so stingy! Cut off a pig's head for the ancestors, and the ancestors will bless you more next year and make more money!"

The ninth wife pondered for a moment, gritted her teeth and said, "That's right, let's do one too! Our family has no money, and our ancestors have suffered for so many years."

After saying that, she looked at Aunt Chun and said, "You are really quick and skillful. You have taken more than us in the past few times. This time, I think you also did more than us, so you must have taken more."

Aunt Chun had a proud look on her face, but she said, "Well, let's talk about that. I only have a little more than you. How much more can I get?"

After saying that, she looked at Su Xia who was silently listening to everyone's conversation in the corner with a smile, "It has to be Xia girl. The fabrics we cut are not finished yet! We can only wait until next year!"

He Jiu's wife also changed her mind instantly. "That's right. Xia girl is the fastest among us. I've only heard that Xia girl is quick and efficient before, but I've never seen her before. Now that I've seen her, I've really learned a lot!"

Su Xia: "My dear aunts, I am just familiar with it."

"Everyone knows that my husband still has to go to school, so I often go to the town to find some work making clothes online. Practice makes perfect over time."

"Aunts and aunts, give it another two months to get familiar with it, and then you'll be able to speed up."

Everyone felt much better after hearing this, and they praised Su Xia a few more times.

As she was talking, Aunt Chun suddenly asked her, "Xia girl, your husband is going to the county to take an exam or something next year, right?"

The smile on Su Xia's face became more genuine. "Yes! February next year."

Aunt Chun: "Oh, this is incredible. If I pass the exam, I will become a great master!"

Su Xia knew more and explained, "After the county exam, there are still the prefectural exam and the imperial college exam."

Aunt Chun: "Oh my goodness, there are so many exams. How long will it take to finish them?"

Su Xia smiled and said, "That's not all. There are still several rounds to go. If you make it to the end, you can meet the emperor!"

Everyone was even more surprised.

Su Yan: "But we can't expect to see the emperor, so we just need to pass our county exam first."

"I heard that this imperial examination is very difficult. Many people cannot even pass the county exam in their entire life."

Aunt Chun: “So difficult?”

The people who were envious on the side also felt a little better.

Su Xia: "Yes! It's very difficult. He doesn't know if he can do it. He has been staying at the teacher's house every day recently, and he even studies by lamplight when he comes back at night."

Su's mother suddenly interrupted, "Quick, bah, bah, bah, no matter what you say, it will definitely work!"

Aunt Chun: "Yes, yes, yes, come on, spit it out."

Su Xia also reacted and quickly tilted her head and spat a few times. Fearing that it was not enough, she spat a few more times.

"Well, I was young and naive, so I said something wrong. Please don't blame me, gods or immortals."

Just as he finished speaking, the gossipy woman appeared at the door.

When Su Xia saw her, a bright smile appeared on her face. "My mother is here to pick me up. Aunts and sisters, I'll go back first."

Mother Su: "Go back, go back."

Su Xia ran out and left with her mother.

After she left, the people who stayed behind began to murmur, "This Xia girl is also stupid. Can the man she marries into her family support her education?"

"If he passes the exam, will he still be interested in a country girl like her?"

"If I fail the exam, wouldn't that be a waste of money? It's not worth it no matter how you look at it."

Aunt Chun: "Mingzhe is not that kind of person. His parents were gone, but the Su family continued to support his studies."

The man who spoke was not convinced, "So what? Aren't there many ungrateful men in this world?"

"When they are poor, they look good, but when they become rich, they immediately turn hostile, wishing their benefactors were dead."

Aunt Chun was a little angry: "Why are you saying this? Mingzhe has been growing up under our watch for so many years! Others may not know what kind of person he is, but don't we know it too?"

"Who knows what he's thinking? I still think Xia girl should save the money. When she has a son named Su, it's better to support him in school than to support Mingzhe in school."

"That's all nonsense. Besides, Mingzhe has been studying for so many years, how can we really let him come down?"

"So what? Supporting him for a few years is already doing him justice. Don't forget that he is twenty years old now. What man in his twenties still relies on a woman to live?"

Aunt Chun: "Isn't Mingzhe reading?"

Seeing that the two were getting more and more angry, Su's mother quickly stepped forward and stopped them with one hand each.

"Alright, alright, it's almost Chinese New Year, why are you arguing?"

"Besides, Mingzhe has been studying for so many years, he must have taken the exam to try. As elders, we should not only not encourage him, but how can we boo him?"

Su's mother was about to say a few more words, but she caught a glimpse of a figure outside the door out of the corner of her eye.

“Mingzhe??!!”

Sun Mingzhe smiled slightly and said gently, "Auntie."

"Is Su Xia here?"

Su's mother: "Yes, no, she just went back with her mother."

Sun Mingzhe: "I understand. I'll take my leave now."

After saying that, he smiled at Su's mother, then nodded to the others and left.

There was silence in the room for a moment, and someone whispered cautiously, "He...didn't hear it?"
