Chapter 219: The Fun of Being Married

with them. Those who really had no grain at home learned from Zong Yu's method yesterday and ate insects wrapped in leaves.After arriving, Fang Jinshu kicked her legs and said, "Hurry up and let me d...Zongyu was a little surprised. He hadn't expected Jinshu to plan for Zongbei to go back to school so early.

"Yeah, do I look like I'm joking with you"

"Well, I... uh..." Zong Bai hesitated. "But, but the situation at home right now probably still needs my help."

"We haven't stored enough food for the winter yet, and our current house isn't warm enough. Oh, and there's also the village water canal project, I'm going to help with that along with my older brother."

"Mother is still here."

Fang Jinshu smiled at him, interrupting Zong Bai.

"Since I'm here to take care of your mother, are you distrustful of your sister-in-law or of your elder brother and Yulian"

"The other things you've said are far less important than your continuing to study."

"Zong Bai, this is a major life event for you. It could change your entire life. Do you really want to spend your whole life as an unknown villager in the mountains"

"Or are you all giving up on going to the capital to look for our father"

No matter if the father is dead or alive, how he disappeared, this matter, we have to give mother an explanation, after all, she has been waiting for so many years.

When Fang Jinshi was speaking, Zong Bai had gradually fallen silent.

Yes, he must read.

Before, he was held back by his grandparents and his uncle's family. Coupled with the drought, he thought their survival was already a problem, so naturally, he didn't have the heart to think about taking the civil service exams.

Now that we have a sister-in-law, things are getting better and better. Because she has space to store food, it solves the biggest survival problem our family faced.

All previous difficulties and concerns have disappeared, and no one will ever hinder him from studying again.

Zong Bai raised his eyes, hesitating before speaking.

But reading takes a lot of money, and our family's situation is just barely making ends meet.

Back then, when his father was studying, his grandparents used all their resources to support him. Could he possibly be sucking the blood of his sister-in-law and her family now

Let them spend all the money they earned through hard work on his studies.

Fang Jinshu sighed. Zong Bo, that child, was simply too sensible. He always put others' difficulties first and didn't care much about his own affairs.

"Don't worry about the silver, sister-in-law. These medicinal herbs she's drying in the courtyard aren't just for show."

"At worst, there's still that fool Su Yusheng living under the mountain!"

"I'll just sell him some herbs, and your year's stipend will be taken care of."

"Don't worry about this, just wait patiently to go back to school."

As Fang Jinshui's words fell, Zong Bai's eyes lit up with excitement, and his fists clenched involuntarily.

He is really going to pick up a book again!

Zongyu didn't speak, he just patted his younger brother's shoulder.

"Go tell mother this good news."

Zong Bai immediately nodded.

He then turned his head and followed Fang Jinshu into the kitchen. Standing in front of the cutting board, he hugged Fang Jinshu from behind.

Although she didn't say a word, Fang Jinshu could feel that Zong Yu was very happy now, extremely happy!

She was also inwardly sweet.

These two brothers are so easy to please; treat them well just a little bit, and they'll be a hundredfold better to you.

"After Zong Bo starts school, you'll have to pay more attention to these household chores."

I only command, I don't cook. The dishes are all washed, you come and cook.

When a man was around, she would immediately act like she didn't know anything. Don't get me wrong, the "green tea" trick worked pretty well, but Zong Yu wasn't that kind of lazy man. Her behavior could only be considered a kind of amusement between husband and wife at most.

Upon hearing his wife's instructions, Zong Yu immediately released his grip and stood in front of her. "Alright, I'll do it. From now on, I'll be the one cooking all the meals at home. You go sit down and rest for a bit."

Fang Jinshu smiled and shook the water droplets off her hands, "I have to direct you! Today, I want to eat braised pork with broad beans, a soup with ribs, stir-fried cabbage, and steamed five sausages."

The wok used by the Zong family to cook rice is a large iron pot that can cook a lot of food at once.

Although Fang Jinshu only ordered three dishes, when they were finished and served, there were enough to fill seven or eight bowls.

When the appetizers arrived, Fang Jinshi was still thinking about how she needed to find an opportunity to go to town again soon. This time, there were so many things she needed to buy.

And both brothers Zongyu and Zongbai have incredibly large appetites. The family's dishes are obviously mismatched with the cooking portions, all of them need to be replaced with extra-large sizes.

Never mind, I'll just buy a few more large soup bowls. They should be perfect for holding the dishes!things beforehand."
