Chapter 1569 Please call me Mr. An (31)
Yes, An Haoting failed the exam again!
This time, the An family was really desperate.
Yan woke up from night dreams countless times. When he woke up, he found that he had not been starved to death, had not been left on the streets, and had to be exposed to the wilderness after he was not dead. Only then did he pat his chest with great gratitude.
Fortunately it is a dream!
However, Yan quickly realized that if he did not take action and improve the situation at home as soon as possible, everything in his dream might really happen in reality.
Since An Niting's heartless little bitch left, the An family has been in bad luck.
If the family has no investment, the family members are trying hard to save, but they cannot change the family's embarrassment.
Although there is a Ge Jintang helping him, he is an outsider and a creditor of the An family.
People are kind-hearted and do not force debts, but help everywhere.
But once the other party turns his face, the blow An family will definitely suffer several times.
Perhaps, the future of the family is even more difficult and more desperate than when the only son died of illness.
In the past three years, Yan and Zhou have been struggling, but they still have a trace of hope in their hearts - An Haoting is a natural student. He can pass the scholarship at a young age, and he will definitely pass the imperial examination in the future!
The Yan mother-in-law and daughter-in-law knew even more clearly that the reason why Ge Jintang was so close to the An family was probably because he was attracted by this.
He wants to invest in advance before Anhaoting becomes rich!
However, An Haoting's failure in the exam again not only shattered the expectations of Yan and others, but also made Ge Jintang retreat.
"Mr. Ge hasn't been here for half a month, right?"
Yan's family has long lost the dignity and majesty that Annie had when she first saw her, and her years of poverty had made her older than ten years old.
His thin face was full of vicissitudes and fatigue.
"Um!"
Zhou sat silently on the lower head of Yan. She was no longer as gentle and kind as she used to be. A deep Sichuan-shaped pattern appeared between her eyebrows.
My face is tanned, my hands are rough, and my clothes are not as delicate as before.
In the past three or four years, she has lived a harder life than Yan.
Yan is old and although he doesn't have to do rough work.
The An family has no support from An Niting and cannot afford to hire a short-term worker. An Haoting has to study again. All the heavy and tiring work at home falls on Zhou's shoulders.
The pressure of life, the despair of the future, forced Zhou into an ordinary village woman like a noble lady.
Now, there is no need for Yan to "persuade" him, and Zhou himself wants to marry his daughter to Ge Jintang as soon as possible.
"Mom, why don't Brother Hao go to the county and invite Mr. Ge to our house for a meal, and then settle the matter between him and Sister Xue?"
I can't delay any more. Her Xue Jie'er is already sixteen years old and can't afford to spend it anymore.
She had fantasies before, waiting for An Haoting to win this year, if they win the imperial examination, their family still has the possibility of turning back.
but……
Alas, forget it, don’t think about those unrealistic fantasies!
The family members were almost starving to death, and her sister Xue had to light up the lamp and boil oil to do needlework to supplement the household expenses. She had a pair of eyes and was red every day.
When Zhou saw this, he felt both distressed and regretful.
She shouldn't have held on at the beginning, but instead agreed to her mother-in-law and decided on the marriage directly.
With in-laws, even if you don’t pass by immediately, Ge Jintang will help you settle down.
Instead of now, if people don’t say they can’t come, they can’t come, and the An family can’t say a little about complaints!
"good!"
Yan didn't say much. She was like a zombie about to fall into the ground, and she felt a lifeless dusk aura from her bones.
An Xueting sat on the kang in the compartment, embroidered with flowers, and there was no turmoil between the two outside.
Not to mention Zhou, even she lost her aura and unwillingness.
We can’t blame her for being spineless, but life is too hard!
If she had been suffering from childhood, it would have been better.
But since she can remember, she has never been worried about food and clothing.
I can't say that I have a good time, but I'm also very well-trained by Zhou.
You don’t have to go out of the door, you don’t have to wash clothes or make food. Learning embroidery is also to gain a reputation for being virtuous and elegant, rather than really wanting to work.
As a result... the embroidery that once learned as "interest" has now become her survival skill that fills her stomach.
Every day, her eyes were sore and her neck was so sore that she couldn't lift it up, An Xueting felt very wronged.
Why, why did she bear these?
I can't eat well and sleep enough. Every day I have to face my grandmother's behavior and my mother's sighs. An Xueting felt that she was really going crazy.
Rather than living such a difficult life, it is better to marry Ge Jintang.
Even if you are a concubine, even if you have no name or a distinction, you can at least eat and wear a good meal and don’t have to work!
As for the boy who is as beautiful and comfortable as the white moonlight in his heart... Forget it, they are destined to be together.
Yes, An Xueting didn't even tell Zhou, she had a secretly hidden person in her heart.
The man was An Haoting's classmate, with an ordinary family, and his grandparents were all rural farmers.
That person is not as talented as An Haoting, but he is also hardworking and serious. He just passed the exam for a scholar two years ago.
The man had a good relationship with An Haoting and had been to An’s house several times.
An Xueting secretly hid behind the door and fell in love with this simple, clean and honest young man at first sight.
When Zhou mentioned the marriage to her, her instinctive resistance was not only for the white moonlight in her heart, but also for the white moonlight in her heart!
A gentle boy may also be a gentle husband in the future.
He is talented, she is elegant, she is a pair of people who are made of heaven, not a vulgar businessman like Ge Jintang!
However, no matter how innocent the first love is, it cannot withstand the tempering of reality.
An Xueting grew up listening to Zhou's teachings since she was a child. Although she was young, her mind was extremely mature.
To put it bluntly, it may also be selfish and realistic.
She kept in mind the words of her mother, "Women should not give too much. Whether it is to their parents, relatives, or husbands, the more they give, the more they will be disappointed!"
An’s family is a quagmire. As long as An Haoting wants to take the imperial examination for one day, An’s family will not be able to turn over.
But is that person a good match?
He, his knowledge is not as good as An Haoting. An Haoting failed the exam twice, will he pass the exam in the future?
An Xueting even remembers clearly that her aunt, An Niting, An Haoting's biological mother, was exhausted to death in order to support her father in the imperial examination!
The aunt died for the sake of settling the family, and her daughter also ruined her life for the sake of settling the family!
The mother and daughter made such a huge sacrifice, but until now, grandmother still kept calling her elder sister a heartless little bitch. Whenever she scolded her to the point of being in high spirits, she would also take care of her aunt who had been dead for many years!
He said she was a unlucky person, said she would not raise children, and she had to give birth to an unfilial daughter like An Niting who was disobedient and unfilial, unfilial, and heartless!
Haha, if the aunt knew about it underground and heard these curses from her grandmother, would she regret it?!
An Xueting didn't know if the aunt would regret it, but she was unwilling to do something that might make her regret it!
She slowly raised her head, not caring about the soreness of her shoulders and neck, so she found a mirror from the basket on the side, and slowly tidied up her appearance in front of the mirror.
Chapter completed!
