However, Zhou Yaoting was honest but not stupid at all.

He knew that such words were OK, but he could never say them.

If you want to say, he just said that he would give the younger generations the family had the opportunity to study, and the entire Zhou family had three bedrooms: the eldest Zhou Yaozu, two sons and one daughter; the second Zhou Yaozong, three sons; the third Zhou Yaoting, two daughters and one son.

Even if you only choose one in each room, you will still have the share of his family.

Zhou Yaoting knew how to use strategies, but his wife Chang was a little concerned and confused.

As soon as her husband mentioned the topic of junior reading, she instantly thought of her smart and lovely son. She plucked up her courage and expressed her opinion in front of her parents-in-law for the first time: "What his father said is that, just like our Yier, who is smart and studious, is just about to reach the age of enlightenment-"

Zhou Yaoting's lips collapsed. Alas, he is good at everything, but he is too honest.

If she said this, it would definitely make others think a lot, and she might even turn the blame.

Sure enough, before Chang finished speaking, he heard a brightly dressed woman sitting on the head say, "Oh, I said why is it so coincidental? The third brother finally came into the city and could hit our Xiande's father in an instant. Last night, I wondered, the city is so big, why did the third brother find a casino when he was looking for a short-term worker?"

"Sister-in-law, don't think too much. I'm also lost and accidentally walked to the gambling house."

When Zhou Yaoting heard his sister-in-law's sarcastic speech, he knew something bad and quickly explained.

It would be fine if he didn't explain. The more he explained, the more angry the woman became, "I'm lost? Third brother, are you treating everyone as a three-year-old child. You go to work in the county every year, and it's been more than ten years. Not to mention walking around the streets and alleys of the county, at least you know where to go to find a short-term worker. Why did you get lost yesterday and just hit your elder brother by chance?"

"Hmph, Xiande's father has always been studying hard and never goes to those messy places. Why are you going to the gambling house?! I didn't believe it yesterday, but you kept making trouble around Xiande's father, and they made everyone dizzy."

"Dad, mom, you two elders have to make the decision for your husband. Some people are dissatisfied with the support of their husbands at home and want their children to study, so they deliberately make up lies and slander people."

"Sister-in-law, I don't. I really met my elder brother outside the gambling house. In addition to the elder brother, there is also one of his classmates. If you don't have it, we can call that person."

"What classmate? That person must be jealous of my husband's talent, so he threw dirty water on your elder brother's head with you."

"Sister-in-law, how could you say that? My brother is my biological brother, how could I slander him? I really saw it-"

"What do you see? Humph, some people are jealous of others because they are not good at studying. You don't think about it. If your elder brother has a promising future, won't you all benefit from it?"

"Sister-in-law—"

"I know my husband failed the exam this time, and you all think he might not have passed the exam. You don't think about it. It's still so easy to get the imperial examination? Not to mention people as young as my husband, there are many people in their fifties and sixties in the exam."

"This time, there is another time. Why can't you tolerate him? In order not to let him study, I will frame him with outsiders?"

"I don't, dad, mom, you have to believe me, I really saw it. By the way, Yi'er also saw it!"

"Bah, Yi'er is your son, of course he speaks to you!"

When Annie walked to the door of the main hall, she happened to hear the body-like wife Liu and Zhou Yaoting were arguing with each other.

She coughed lightly.

"Brother is here!"

The couple, who had been watching, quickly shouted when they saw Annie coming.

Mrs. Liu glanced at the door and saw that it was her husband. She hurriedly stopped, stood up, and greeted him with concern, "Mr., you are getting up, what are you feeling uncomfortable?"

While saying that Liu was still secretly winking at Anne from the perspective that others were not paying attention.

Annie's mouth twitched. When she was wearing clothes in the house just now, she had done enough psychological construction and tried to tell herself: I am a man now, a man!

But when she faced her wife with this body, she still felt a little strange.

Avoiding Liu's sight, Annie nodded at her, then raised her foot into the main hall.

"Boss, tell me honestly, what happened yesterday?"

Zhou Jingxian didn't sleep all night, and he seemed to be ten years older.

The eldest son was so amazing when he was young that he saw the hope of the prosperity of his family.

The greater the result, the greater the disappointment.

In the past ten years, the eldest son failed the exam once. In order to support him in school, the whole family tightened his belt and looked forward to the day when he made his debut.

But instead of failing the exam, he went to bet.

What is bet?

The disaster of ruining the family.

Once infected, the whole family will not be able to escape.

Zhou Jing was disappointed and scared at first, but he was still lucky and asked with some hope: "You, have you really gone to the gambling house?"

Annie raised her head and looked at her old father who could not hide her fatigue, and couldn't help feeling guilty.

Liu kept winking Annie, telling him not to be stupid.

But Annie seemed to have not seen it, lowered her head and responded, "Yes!"

Bang!

Zhou Jingxian seemed to have been removed from his bones and fell to the back of the chair in dejected manner.

Zhou Yaozong was anxious and said hatefully, "Brother, how could you go to the gambling house? At the beginning, in order to make you addicted, you will win some money, but once you become addicted, you will lose a lot. You will never give up without scrambling the house, land, and people at home!"

Zhou Yaoting also murmured, "Yes, brother, you shouldn't be too bad."

Annie raised her eyebrows and thought to herself that Zhou Yaozong was the best, and his two younger brothers didn't seem to be as loyal and honest as in the original plot.

Could it be that Zhou Xianyi, the reborn person, has had such a great effect that he has quietly changed the two of them?

Since that's the case, she also needs to use strategies.

Annie raised her eyebrows disdainfully, "Dragon, do you know the tricks in the gambling house?"

Zhou Yaozong's face froze. Can he say, is this what he learned from his nephew's learning?

"Yes, second brother, have you been to the gambling house?"

When Liu heard this, he immediately became energetic and asked maliciously.

"No, no, I haven't been there, I just heard people say it." Although Zhou Yaozong had some thoughts when he heard his wife talk all day long, he was essentially an honest person.

Seeing that his sister-in-law was so aggressive, he subconsciously retreated.

"Okay, everyone, now you should not mess around with the boss."

The person who spoke was from the old lady of the Zhou family, Tan. Mrs. Tan was about fifty years old and had a little white hair on her temples. Her face, which had always been kind, was full of seriousness.

Although she is partial to her eldest son, she will not watch her eldest daughter-in-law snatch her second son. After all, the second child is also her biological child.

"Yes, mom!"

Liu curled his lips, feeling unwilling to accept it, and finally retreated behind Anne.

"Boss, you know what you said just now, do you know there is something wrong with the gambling house?"

Zhou Jingxian grew older and became stronger, and quickly grasped the key point.

"I'm worthy of being my father, and I suddenly heard the problem."

Annie pretended to be admired and flattered, and then said, "That day Xu Zhou invited me to 'relax'. I usually feel that he is always jealous of me, the youngest scholar in Qi County. When I heard what gambling house he was going to, I became even more sure of my guess."

Annie showed off Zhou Yaozu's pride, "Hmph, he thought I didn't know the tricks of the gambling house? Haha, I want to collude with the gambling house to coax my money? There is no door!"

"Brother, what do you mean is that you know he is going to lie to you, but you still go to the gambling house?"

Zhou Yaoting was a little confused. Didn’t he know that there was a tiger in the mountain and he was going toward the tiger mountain? There is also a nasty saying about this practice, which is called dying.

"Since they want to lie to me, they must have bait."

Annie opened her mouth and took out four silver ingots from her arms proudly.

One silver ingot is five taels, and four is twenty taels.

When the people in the room saw the shining silver, they all widened their eyes and breathed a little rapid.

For more than ten years, the Zhou family has been living a very tight life in order to support Zhou Yaozu's study. How could they have seen so much money?

Even the Liu family was born into a wealthy business family in Qi County and had not seen such a large amount of money in more than ten years.

It’s so pitiful. Since she married Zhou Yaozu, she has been able to keep getting silver and giving her dowry. Never before, Zhou Yaozu came back with money.

At this moment, she stared at the four silver ingots and wished she could receive them immediately.

However, Annie did not hand over the money to Liu, but placed it directly in front of Zhou Jingxian and Old Lady Tan.

"Dad, mom, I started my studies at the age of six, started to study in a private school at the age of seven, and went to a college at the age of thirteen. It has been twenty-two years since then."

Annie said to the two old men with emotion, "In the past twenty-two years, my son has never done a day of farm work, nor has he worked for a day of short-term work, so naturally he has never paid a penny to his family--"

When his son's tone was both guilty and self-blame, Mrs. Tan, who had always loved him, was soft-hearted, "Yaozu, why are you talking about these things? You are talented and hardworking, but you are not lucky... You can't blame you for these."

Anne:...

The lie was repeated a thousand times and it became the truth. The entire Zhou family was brainwashed by Zhou Yaozu, and he felt that he failed to pass the exam again and again, not because he was not strong enough, but because he was too lucky!

Annie shook her head, "No, mom, I think I'm left-handed. I didn't pass the imperial examination, but I still didn't study hard enough. Luck is just an auxiliary."

Liu's eyes widened, and she had a premonition that what her husband wanted to say next was definitely not a good thing.

Sure enough, Annie said: "Dad, mom, mom, mom, second, third, two younger siblings,"

Annie lit up everyone present, her eyes flashed across the faces of several people, and said seriously: "My second brother just made sense. I can find a private school to teach first-"

"Boss, you're not studying anymore?"

Zhou Jingxian asked in a trembling voice, his expression seemed to be a little relieved and more disappointed.

"Yes, my husband, how could you give up?" Liu was anxious. She was a daughter of a wealthy businessman and was willing to marry a poor farmer's son. So that even if Zhou Yaozu passed the imperial examination in the future, she could become an official wife.
