Chapter 711: No Argument
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
But Shao Xianwen went missing and Ms. Zhang, the culprit was caught and driven out of the family. Then, Ms. Xu gave birth to the baby… everything happened altogether and distracted them. So, everyone from the first section of the family forgot about this great news. They had not spread it out to anyone.
This news came from the Yang Village…
Ms. Fang smiled. “Yeah, it is true. Yunduan is ranked first in the exam! He is the Provincial Champion! I should have told you earlier, but 1 guess we all forgot about this since too many things were distracting us!’
Ms. Yan smiled brightly. “That is fantastic! Congratulations, Eldest Aunt. Fifth
Cousin has really boosted our family’s name!”
Ms. Fang loved to hear that. She laughed. “Very true!”
Ms. Niu and Second Uncle felt quite distressed. But since the first section of the family helped a lot with what happened to Ms. Zhang, they could not change their attitude too fast. So, they had to force a smile and offer congratulations.
Ms. Ma and Third Uncle were different.
Ms. Ma was sour. She threw a look at Ms. Yan and snorted. “Ms. Yan, what are you so happy for? It is not your husband who made it, right? You don’t even have anyone in your family who reads.”
Ms. Yan was not angry and smiled instead. “Fifth Cousin’s success as the recommended man brings honor to our family, so, of course I am very happy about it. Being able to read is a talent. We don’t have it, but maybe our our children will. Nothing else matters, as long as we can live a happy life.”
Ms. Niu did not like what Ms. Ma said, so she echoed her daughter-in-law’s words. “True!”
Third Uncle said with jealousy evident in his voice, “Now you have cleared the examination, maybe you can teach your brother. If he can become a Cultivated Talent, that would bring double honor to our family!’
“Yeah.” Ms. Ma snapped. “In fact, you should have taught him earlier!”
Eldest Uncle felt very guilty. He added. “Third Brother and Third Sister-in-law, it is not too late now. As long as Liulang likes it, Yunduan would be willing to teach him. If we have two recommended men in our family, it would be glorious. The two brothers can help each other too!”
“Yunduan, tell your Third Uncle and Third Aunt-in-law about it!”
Shao Yunduan shook his head at his mother who was about to say something. “Sure, as long as Sixth Cousin is willing to take help from me, 1 would be willing to do that!”
That was true.
In fact, he had tried to help Shao Liulang back in college, but Shao Liulang believed that he was better than Shao Yunduan and never wanted to listen to his instructions. He even tried to argue unreasonably with him.
The argument was so boring that Shao Yunduan decided to leave Shao Liulang alone.
He would only help him if he came over willingly.
Third Uncle and Ms. Ma were not very happy hearing that.
Ms. Ma snapped. “What is the point of saying this now? It is too late.”
Shao Yunduan.
He did not argue back. Nor did he get angry.
Ms. Yan was watching the scene. She felt disdainful inside her heart.
It was the parents’ fault anyway.
Third Uncle snapped. “You can’t just make empty speech. You have to put it into action. Promise that you can help Liulang become a Cultivated Talent next year! ”
Ms. Fang sneered.. “Are you joking, Third Brother? Promise? There can never be any promise like this! Don’t be ridiculous!”
