The male protagonist falls in love with me again

Chapter 118: The Male Lead in the Imperial Examination: Going to School

Now that the family had money, Li Xiaoyao began to think about how to get his family to agree to let Lin Qu go to school.

"Tongzi, exchange two pieces of Huanxin Grass for me and put them on my grandparents."

"In my dream, I imagined Lin Qu to be the descendant of Wenquxing, who would surely win the first prize in the imperial examination."

[Host, are you sure you want to spend twenty points to redeem the Illusion Heart Grass?]

"OK! OK!"

Anyway, he has guaranteed points, so he is not stingy.

【Redemption successful, has been delivered.】

Now Li Xiaoyao felt relieved.

As expected, ever since the release of the Huanxin Grass, Old Man Li and Old Mrs. Chen would stare at Lin Qu for a long time every day, sometimes nodding, sometimes shaking their heads, with a look of confusion on their faces.

……

That night, Old Mrs. Chen tossed and turned in bed, unable to calm down for a long time.

She couldn't help herself any longer, so she gently nudged the old man beside her and whispered, "Old man, do you think what the immortal said in the dream is true? Is Qu'er really the Star of Literature?"

The old man Li was silent for a moment, then slowly said, "The immortal can't be wrong. Qu'er is the reincarnation of Wenquxing."

Old Mrs. Chen frowned and asked in confusion, "Do you think the immortal made a mistake? My youngest son is so smart, he should be the God of Literature!"

Old Man Li shook his head and replied, "How could a great immortal make a mistake? Yao'er is the Little Fortune Star, and Qu'er is the Literary Star. Our family has produced two little immortals at once!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Chen's doubts were slightly alleviated, but she still couldn't help but worry: "If that's the case, should we send Qu'er to school?"

Old Man Li sighed deeply, his tone filled with helplessness: "Send them, both of them. We can't let our children's future be affected by our reluctance to spend money!"

"If the immortal gets upset over this and blames us, we can't afford the consequences!"

When Old Chen heard this, she looked embarrassed and said hesitantly, "This... Boss..."

The old man understood his wife's concerns, patted her hands and comforted her: "Don't worry, the boss will agree."

The money was earned by the youngest son, so how could the eldest son not agree?

Old Chen nodded: "Okay then."

Old Man Li responded, turned around and lay down, silently thinking about how to convince his eldest son.

Old Chen fell asleep soon after because the source of her anxiety was resolved.

……

The next morning.

At the dinner table, Old Man Li told his whole family about sending his two children to school.

Zhang was so obedient that she felt as if struck by thunder. Her face was filled with surprise and she asked in disbelief, "Dad, are you really going to send our youngest son to school?"

Old Man Li nodded slightly and said affirmatively: "Not only the youngest, but Qu'er will go too."

He glanced at the pale-faced eldest brother and his wife, and continued earnestly, "Old man, and the elders, please don't blame us old couple for being partial. This money was earned by the youngest with his own ability, and not a penny of the family's money was used."

Old Mrs. Chen chimed in, "Do you remember seven days ago? I went to the city and sold the treasures my youngest son had found. I used the money to buy meat, cloth, and cakes for the family."

Zhang's eyes instantly lit up like stars, and she eagerly asked, "Mother, what treasure did the youngest find?"

Old Mrs. Chen glared at her second daughter-in-law fiercely and said unhappily, "If you could be half as good at your work as you are at talking, I could enjoy ten more years of peace and quiet. Don't ask questions you shouldn't ask."

"Why don't you know? You know it yourself."

Zhang suddenly looked aggrieved and muttered to herself, I just like to eat some things and talk some things.

Lin Qu put down his chopsticks and said to Old Man Li, "Grandpa, just let my brother go. I'll stay at home and do the work."

When Old Chen heard this, she immediately frowned and said, "Children should not interrupt when adults are talking."

Lin Qu pursed his lips and said no more, but his heart was filled with emotion. He didn't expect that the Li family would not only take him and his sister in, but also send him to school.

Old Mrs. Chen looked at the others and said in a serious tone, "Eldest brother, second brother, and the eldest brother, come to my room later. Mother has something to tell you."

When Zhang heard that she was not there, she became anxious: "Mom, where am I?"

Mrs. Chen said, "Go wash the dishes for me, Big Girl, Second Girl, Third Girl, Fourth Girl, Rou'er. None of you are allowed to help."

Zhang: ...

……

After Li Dalin, Li, and Li Dashan came out of Old Chen's house, they all had smiles on their faces, no longer filled with bitterness and hatred.

It seems that Old Mrs. Chen told them about the money she earned from selling ginseng. The money she earned was enough to support her two children's education for several years.

Li Xiaoyao didn't want to go to school, but as soon as he mentioned it to his father, he got spanked several times.

Li Xiaoyao felt like crying but had no tears. The books here didn't even have punctuation marks, and he really couldn't understand them.

He has to get up so early every day...

The more Li Xiaoyao thought about it, the sadder he became. He really couldn't go on with his life like this...
