"Qing'er, don't look at me like this, I, I feel a little guilty."
Seeing Yang Ruoqing staring directly at him, Yang Yongxian hesitated.
"Brother understands that he is already thirty this year and is already in his thirties. Now he has to go back to college to study. This, this is indeed a bit embarrassing..."
Seeing that he had misunderstood, Yang Ruoqing quickly interrupted him and explained: "Brother, you misunderstood, I didn't mean that. I think your plan is very good. This is not embarrassing at all. On the contrary, I I’m also shocked by your courage to risk everything, and I admire you so much!”
"Really?" Yang Yongxian asked in surprise.
"Really, will I still fool you? When have you ever seen me fool you?" Yang Ruoqing asked.
Yang Yongxian breathed a sigh of relief, blushed and said, "Actually, eldest brother has always been a little entangled in his heart, and he is also a little uneasy. I am afraid that you will say that I am too ambitious and ungrateful..."
"Brother, stop talking nonsense, it doesn't exist at all!" Yang Ruoqing waved her hand with a smile, turned around and walked to the backyard kitchen, Yang Yongxian also quickly followed.
In the kitchen room, Yang Ruoqing was ladling hot water into the teapot she brought.
Yang Yongxian stood aside and continued: "Qing'er, the eldest brother is thinking about it, he is already thirty years old, and this is the only time in his life to bet."
"If I can pass the Juren exam in three years, that will be great, but if I fail..."
"Brother, sincerity is the key to success. If it doesn't work in three years, then just three more years. In ancient times, there was a Fan Jin who passed the imperial examination. He was older than you, and his family couldn't open the door. He still persisted, and finally passed the imperial examination!" Yang Ruoqing strongly encouraged Yang Yongxian.
Behind the dense vapor of the hot water, her eyes were as dazzling as the stars in the sea.
The words that came out of his mouth shocked Yang Yongxian even more, and he felt like he was ready to die, and the aura of vowing to fight to the end for the title of Juren was aroused.
But Yang Yongxian still said: "Qing'er, don't worry, since your eldest brother and I have made up our minds to take the exam, I will definitely give my best."
"But don't be afraid of ten thousand things in this world, just be afraid of the unexpected."
"If, if I am really unlucky and can't do anything well in the exam, I will have to shamelessly come to you when the time comes..."
Yang Yongxian was really embarrassed to say the following words.
I don’t know how many people are jealous of the errands in the school.
Qing'er can do it by herself because she cares about the brother-sister relationship.
"Brother, just concentrate on your studies. I'll keep the school errands for you whenever you come back!"
Yang Ruoqing was like a roundworm in Yang Yongxian's stomach. She immediately revealed what Yang Yongxian was worried about and longed for. This was the eldest brother's last escape route, and she naturally wanted to keep it for him.
The eldest brother is too embarrassed to speak because of his face, so she will tell the truth.
Sure enough, when he heard Yang Ruoqing's words, Yang Yongxian was startled at first, but when he came to his senses, his face was filled with emotion.
He took a step back, brushed his clothes, and bowed to Yang Ruoqing.
"Oh, brother, what are you doing? Stop doing this, you're going to hurt me!"
Yang Ruoqing held the ladle in one hand and the teapot in the other. She couldn't free her hands to help him, let alone move her feet to avoid his bow.
After Yang Yongxian made three long bows in a row, he stood up straight and said to Yang Ruoqing with a serious face: "This is what a brother should do. I will never thank you for your kindness. If you succeed one day, you will definitely repay your sister for your kindness."
! "
After filling the water, Yang Yongxian hurried over to help her carry the water, and the brother and sister returned to the front yard together.
On the way, Yang Ruoqing asked him if he had informed other people in the family, such as his grandparents, about this decision?
"I've only told Mei Ying and you about this plan for the time being. I won't tell my grandma and grandma yet to save them from bothering me. We'll talk about it during the Chinese New Year," Yang Yongxian said matter-of-factly.
Yang Ruoqing nodded and asked him with a smile: "My sister-in-law also supports you, right?"
Yang Yongxian hummed, "Your sister-in-law really has no choice. No matter what decision I make, she won't say a word of opposition, unlike Li Xiuxin..."
Yang Yongxian stopped talking.
Yang Ruoqing smiled, she understood even if he didn't say anything.
"I won't tell anyone else about this matter. I'll leave it to you, brother, to announce it yourself!" she said.
Because there are still more than two months before the Chinese New Year, and there is no telling what will happen in these two months.
It's not impossible that the eldest brother suddenly changed his mind, so I won't talk about it now to avoid embarrassment later.
At night, when Yang Yongxian returned to his home, Liao Meiying brought him hot water to wash his feet.
Yang Yongxian told Liao Meiying, "I will tell Qing'er about this tonight."
Liao Meiying's hand paused for a moment, then she raised her head and glanced at Yang Yongxian, "What did Qing'er say?"
Yang Yongxian said: "Qing'er is a sensible person. As soon as I said my words, she understood immediately. Like you, she also agreed with my decision."
"Besides, Qing'er also said that she would leave the errand for me at all times, so that I can study and take exams without any worries."
Hearing this, Liao Meiying also smiled reassuringly and said: "Qing'er is such a good person. Before I married into your old Yang family, I heard that your old Yang family's brothers are respectful and respectful, and the brothers and sisters have a good relationship. , now it seems that it is really true!”
Yang Yongxian also sighed and said: "Our old Yang family is indeed united, especially the third room and Qing'er, they have supported our entire old Yang family."
"As the eldest grandson of the old Yang family, I can't just watch like this, especially since even my eldest nephew Chen'er has passed the exam. As an eldest uncle, I have to work hard no matter what!"
Liao Meiying looked up to Yang Yongxian with admiration and said, "Yongxian, as the eldest brother, it is really remarkable that you can set such an example."
"Don't worry, I am your wife, no matter what you want to do, I will support you."
"From now on, you can study with peace of mind and concentrate on learning. I am at home!"
"But Yongxian, just tell me and Qing'er about this. Sister Xiuxin, would you like to inform me as well?" Liao Meiying asked again.
Yang Yongxian shook his head: "Let's hide it from her first. If she finds out, she will have a lot of ideas."
Yang Yongxian didn't say this casually, because when he was resting in Li Xiuxin's room a few days ago, Li Xiuxin had been insinuating with him several times.
That meant that he disliked the little money he made in school and wanted him to give up his writing and go into business and work as an errand in a restaurant, preferably in purchasing or accounting...
At that time, he was rejected by Yang Yongxian.
In the mind of a man who had studied for ten years and had the reputation of being a scholar, Li Xiuxin's words were an insult to him!
