Chapter 771 He felt aggrieved

"Don't worry, Uncle. Money has to be earned slowly. We will have many ways to make money in the future. We won't have to worry about having nothing to do."

Qiao Erhe scratched his head embarrassedly:

"Hehe, Second Uncle is excited! When he thinks that we can make more patterned cloth than others, Second Uncle can't wait to see how the printed cloth is, whether it is popular, and whether it can be sold at a good price. Our family has been spending your money for more than a year, Second Uncle is embarrassed, so he wants to help you quickly and make more money for the family so that you can find wives for your two nephews."

Qiao Ran laughed: "How old are Xiaonan and Xiaoxi, and Uncle is so anxious to find them wives?"

Qiao Erhe was also embarrassed by what he said:

"Hehe, that's right. Dong'er is older than Nan'er. Big brother and big sister-in-law are not in a hurry, so then, then I won't be in a hurry either."

Qiao Dajiang and Zheng Huiniang looked at each other and smiled helplessly.

It’s not that they are not anxious, but Dong’er is still young!

Dong'er just turned 13 two months ago. Although some families would arrange marriages for their children early, their family does not want to do so too early. What if the child grows up and finds a girl he really likes?

Besides, the fourth brother is 19 years old and still not married. How can Dong'er, as a nephew, get married earlier than his uncle?

Speaking of which, I don’t know when the fourth brother will get married, and what kind of girl he will marry.

Thinking of the fourth child, Zheng Hui Niang suddenly remembered something:

"By the way, Ranran, your fourth uncle said that because of the drought in Qingzhou and the flood in Bianzhou last year, many victims fled, causing students from the two states to miss the imperial examinations, so this year's special examination is open. If your fourth uncle can pass the college examination next month, he can participate in this year's special examination in autumn."

"Really? That's great! Fourth uncle has never given up on studying, and he just wants to take the imperial examination to fight for a better future. When I was fleeing from famine, I noticed that Fourth Uncle was unhappy because he missed the imperial examination last year. Now Fourth Uncle can finally fulfill his wish."

Qiao Erhe also said: "Yes, if your fourth uncle can pass the imperial examination and become a scholar or even a Jinshi, and then get a government job, then our family can be considered to have escaped from poverty, and no one will point fingers at us and call us peasants anymore."

In the past, although Qiao Erhe also yearned for a life of wealth and power, he did not have much objection to his identity as a "peasant".

However, he felt uncomfortable ever since he was bullied and insulted by corrupt officials on his way to escape famine, and then when he arrived in the suburbs of Beijing, the children of the powerful in the city came to the Devil Valley and scolded him as a peasant.

In his heart, Ranran's abilities were better than those of all the women in Vietnam, but she was still pointed at and called a peasant, which made him feel aggrieved.

If fourth brother could pass the exam and get a government job, the whole family would also benefit from it, and those people would no longer be able to call Ranran a peasant or a country girl.

Hearing this, Qiao Ran chuckled and corrected his second uncle's words:

"Uncle, being an official means you can crush others! Even if we are commoners, as long as we are strong and tough, we don't have to worry about being bullied. If someone points his finger at us and scolds us, we can break his hand! If they want to kill us, we can kill them back! This is a world where the strong are respected. It's good to have power and influence, but if you don't have power and influence, then you should work hard to be rich and capable."

Qiao Sanhu nodded:

"Ran Ran is right! The fourth brother worked hard to pass the imperial examination and become an official, so we can't slack off. Ran Ran relied on her own ability to gain the honor of being a great doctor, and she was able to save the emperor and obtain the dragon-shaped jade pendant. We don't have much ability, so we can only work hard to do our part. Under Ran Ran's leadership, we can grow more food, fruits and vegetables, sell more money, and support them."

Qiao Erhe also nodded slightly, as if thinking about something.

I will definitely try my best to be a good helper to Ranran. I hope that my two little brats will be more self-reliant in the future and help their elder sister more, so that Ranran won't have to bear everything alone.
