After Wu Shichu heard this, he was not surprised that the two of them would reach this point. Because there was no original owner to support Han Ji in his studies, wouldn't he have to think of other ways?
It's just that Wu Shichu thought he had some backbone, but he didn't expect that he had set his sights on his in-law's family and actually asked his wife to go back to her parents' house to borrow money. This was not like a leading actor at all.
At this time, Wu Shichu was glad that the original owner had not had much contact with her natal family for a long time, otherwise she doubted that Han Ji would let her go back to her natal family to borrow money.
Of course, Wu Shichu couldn't do it, but just thinking about the possibility made her feel uncomfortable.
Fortunately, Han Ji went to the county academy early after getting the money, otherwise Wu Shichu might not be able to help but look down on him.
Zhang Luoyi replaced her original owner and became the one who stayed at home doing embroidery work all day long. She had only been married for two years, but her face was already haggard, as if she had aged ten years. As expected, working hard can make people age easily.
Zhang Luoyi abandoned her face and borrowed money from two families, naturally hoping that her husband would pass the exam. However, for some reason, Han Ji's luck suddenly ran out. He actually failed in the first exam!
Of course, in this highly competitive imperial examination, it is normal for candidates to fail the exam for the first time. After all, many people have failed the exam for decades.
However, Han Ji is not an ordinary person. He is a male protagonist who is blessed with good luck. He should have passed the imperial examination in one go, and then passed the imperial examination again, but now he actually failed to even pass the imperial examination. This It's very abnormal.
When the results came out, Han Ji saw that his name was not on the nomination list, and he couldn't believe it. He looked again and again, but still couldn't find his name. In the end, he had to accept the fact that he failed the list, and he suddenly became devastated. .
However, Zhang Luoyi was more collapsed than him. When Han Ji came home and told her the news, she burst into tears and grabbed Han Ji in disbelief, asking him: "Why did you fail the exam?" ? Didn’t you say that you are 90% sure of passing the exam? What should you do now? Why can’t you pass the exam? "
Han Ji was sad and guilty at first, but when he heard Zhang Luoyi's question, he suddenly got angry: "A lot of people failed the exam. Some people failed the exam more than ten times. I just passed the exam now." Isn’t it normal to fail the exam once?! How many people can pass the exam in one attempt?”
"But...but you clearly said you were very confident." Zhang Luoyi burst into tears.
Sister-in-law Song was choosing vegetables with Wu Shichu in the yard. When she heard the couple quarreling in the house, she immediately looked at Wu Shichu worriedly and said, "Won't Madam go and persuade them?"
Wu Shichu shook his head: "Don't go. The two of them were quarreling in the room, which means they didn't want to make a big deal out of it. If I got involved, it would become a big deal even if it wasn't a big deal. It was just a quarrel between the couple. After two days, it would be a big deal." God will be fine."
Sister-in-law Song had no choice but not to persuade her. To be honest, she had been in the Han family for almost two years and had watched the young couple go from being sweet and loving to complaining and quarreling with each other. She was very emotional.
Han Ji and Zhang Luoyi argued for a long time, which finally ended with Han Ji slamming the door and leaving. When he came out of the house and saw Wu Shichu and Sister-in-law Song, he suddenly looked embarrassed and said to Wu Shichu: "Mom, I'm going out to relax. "
"Go." Wu Shichu nodded.
Not long after Han Ji left, Zhang Luoyi came out and sat blankly on a stool in the hall.
Sister-in-law Song looked at her, then at Wu Shichu, and whispered, "Don't you want to persuade her?"
Wu Shichu shook his head: "That's not necessary. She must be more like herself at this time. Let's not disturb her." In fact, she just didn't want to pay attention to these two people.
However, neither of them spoke, but Zhang Luoyi took the initiative to speak. She asked Wu Shichu: "Mom, my husband did not pass the examination this time, what should I do in the future?"
"It depends on Han Ji himself. If he wants to continue to take the exam, then he should continue to prepare and take the exam again in three years; if he doesn't want to take the exam, then he can come back and become a wife. He will be respected and can support his family." Wu Shi He replied in a gentle tone.
Zhang Luoyi's eyes widened immediately: "My husband is willing not to take the exam again? I think he means he still wants to take the exam again."
"Whether he wants to or not, he decides for himself, I will not interfere with him." Wu Shichu said simply, "If he passes the exam, I will enjoy the blessings; if he fails the exam, I will continue to live the life I have now. There’s no problem.”
Zhang Luoyi was choked. Looking at her mother-in-law, who was getting younger and younger with each passing day, a thought suddenly came to her mind: Is the husband really her biological child? Otherwise, why doesn't she care about her husband's future at all now?
"Mom, why don't you care about my father-in-law's future at all now? You were obviously willing to do embroidery work to make money in order to support his education." Zhang Luoyi quickly asked the doubts in her heart.
When Wu Shichu heard what she said, he immediately laughed and said, "It's not that I don't care about his future now, but I can't. I can't make any more money to support him, so I can no longer help him make any decisions." .”
Zhang Luoyi half-understood: "Mom, you mean, if you can make money to support him, then you can help him decide whether to continue taking the civil examination?"
"Yes, whoever pays is qualified to make the decision." Wu Shichu said straightforwardly.
Zhang Luoyi was immediately shocked. Now she is supporting her husband to study, so is she the one who can decide whether her husband should continue to take the examination?
Wu Shichu saw her expression as if she had an epiphany, and smiled slightly. It seemed that someone was about to wake up, and the couple would still be noisy in the future.
One is a person who makes money, and the other is a person who claims to be the backbone of the family and the only man. Once they face off, who will win in the end?
Wu Shichu didn't think it was a big deal to watch the excitement. Who made this couple cheat the original owner so miserably in the original world plot? Now let them cheat each other and have internal strife between husband and wife.
Han Ji hung out all day and didn't come back until night. As soon as he came back, he had another quarrel with Zhang Luoyi. Wu Shichu was lying on his comfortable bed, listening to their quarrel, thinking it was just before falling asleep. accompaniment.
The two people were quarreling more and more. Zhang Luoyi hoped that he would not continue to take the exam, but wanted him to find a teaching job and be a wife to support the family. Besides, they had been married for two years and it was time to have a child. If you have a child, it is even less likely that you will have the spare money to continue to support him in the imperial examination, so not taking the exam is the best choice.
But of course Han Ji couldn't agree. Ever since he was sensible, he had been on the gold medal list and rose to prominence. His only goal was to glorify his ancestors by studying. Now if he was asked to stop midway, how could he give up?
He felt that it was just bad luck that he failed to pass the exam. He would definitely pass the exam next time, so he forcefully asked Zhang Luoyi to continue supporting him.
