128 Xiao Qing’s Knowledge
Old Madam Lin also wanted to leave. When the village chief came, she did not want to stay here anymore.
She had no choice. Last time, the village chief had warned her husband and threatened to drive them out of Daishi Village. Later on, Lin Dachui, that useless bastard, even slapped her twice.
If this matter were to blow up again, and the village chief got someone to call Lin Dachui over, things would probably get worse.
“Why are you still standing there? They don’t welcome us, let’s leave!” Old Madam Lin stomped her walking stick and let Deng Shi support her as she left.
Lin Lanhua looked at Lin Xiaoyue angrily, feeling a little indignant.
However, Old Madam Lin and Deng Shi were leaving. There was no point in her staying.
She could only snort and chase after Old Madam Lin and Deng Shi.
Jiang Shi was kicked twice by Lin Xiaoyue, and her body was in great pain.
She wanted to at least extort some money from Lin Xiaoyue.
But her “teammates” had all left, and she couldn’t win against Lin Xiaoyue on her own. She could only swallow her pain and followed them.
After they left, Lin Xiaoyue turned around and let everyone take their seats, saying that they would start serving the dishes immediately.
Then, she went to the kitchen.
Li Xiao led the village chief and the rest to their seats.
Then, he asked the village chief to help host the housewarming.
The food prepared by the Liu family was very sumptuous. Meat dishes took up more than half of it, and there was even wine.
Li Xiao toasted each table, and the guests were happy.
After the meal, some women stayed behind to help the Liu family wash the dishes.
Lin Xiaoyue asked everyone to come again in the evening.
Li Xiao asked Li Huaiyu to go to the room in the front yard and then called Xiao Qing and Lin Xiaozhi over.
Then, he asked Wang Shuanzi to send the borrowed tables, chairs, bowls, and chopsticks back to their respective homes.
When the front yard was tidied up, Li Xiao saw Li Huaiyu, Xiao Qing, and Lin Xiaozhi coming out of the room.
To his surprise, Li Huaiyu’s attitude was completely different from before. He was very polite to Xiao Qing. The two of them chatted and laughed as if they had become good friends.
Before Li Huaiyu left, he even bowed to him.
“What’s going on?” Li Xiao asked his nephew.
Xiao Qing smiled.
“Brother Huaiyu admires Xiao Qing’s knowledge and wants to be his friend!” Lin Xiaozhi said.
“Qing’er is really amazing. When Brother Huaiyu asked him a question just now, he answered it without much thought.”
“Brother Huaiyu who said that Qing’er answered eloquently,. Even he felt ashamed.”
“After that, Brother Huaiyu’s attitude towards Qing’er changed. He said that he wants to be friends with him.”
In the evening, there were only two tables left. They ate the leftovers from lunch and two simple dishes.
After dinner and seeing off the enthusiastic villagers, the Liu family’s housewarming was finally over.
Li Xiao was a little surprised as he looked at Xiao Qing.
He knew that Xiao Qing had been taught by a famous teacher, but he was only 12 years old. Was he that good?
Xiao Qing smiled and nodded.
“Huaiyu said that I have no problem entering the academy. When I get there, I should be able to enter the special class immediately and prepare for the junior examination next year.”
He had never thought of taking the scholar’s examination.
But today, he found out that Lin Xiaoyue was going to send him to the academy. After thinking about it, this might be the most suitable path for him.
He couldn’t help with anything else in this family anyway.
If he could pass the imperial examination and gain some fame, he would be able to protect this family.
“Hmm.” Li Xiao responded. Surprisingly, he didn’t look happy. Instead, he frowned.
