MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 203 Retest

Seeing the visitor walking into the hospital out of breath, the twins shouted in surprise: "Dad!"

Dalang and Erlang looked at each other, a little excited. I wonder if Dad has passed the preliminary exam?

One of the two brothers went forward to pick up Liu Ji's luggage, and the other went to the kitchen to get the dishes and chopsticks and entered the main room.

There are still vegetables left, and because Qin Yao has a bad appetite today, there is still one bowl left, which is enough for Liu Ji to eat alone.

Liu Ji rushed home all the way, almost going crazy with hunger. He forced a smile at Qin Yao, washed his hands in a hurry, picked up the food handed over by the elder, and sat at the table to eat.

Qin Yao waited for him to finish, and then asked: "Have the results of the preliminary examination come out?"

 Liu Ji took the handkerchief from his daughter Siniang and wiped his mouth, took a deep breath, burped "uh", and then nodded.

 Thereupon, the mother and son all gathered around him, waiting with bated breath for his result.

Liu Ji asked Qin Yao: "There is good news and bad news, which one do you want to hear first?"

As soon as Qin Yao heard this, she had an ominous premonition, "Good news."

Liu Ji smiled and said, "I tried it for the first time."

 The mother and son raised their eyebrows in unison, surprised and happy that he could actually pass the preliminary examination.

Qin Yao did not forget that there was bad news. She suppressed her joy and asked tentatively: "What about the bad news?"

 Liu Ji lamented, "We need to retake the exam."

He only regrets not buying a yellow talisman and putting it on his body before entering the examination room, otherwise he wouldn't be so bad!

The five mother and son asked in confusion: "Retest?"

 Liu Ji nodded heavily. It was a long story, so he kept it short.

  He found someone to find someone for the first test, and the seats and students with outstanding academic performance were well arranged. In addition, the invigilation of the first test was not strict, so Liu Ji was not surprised at all when he was able to pass at the tail end.

But he never expected that less than an hour after the list came down, the government would cancel the previous preliminary test results and conduct a retest because someone reported that someone had cheated in the preliminary test and was dissatisfied with the results on the list.

 All students on the list will be re-examined, and the final result will be based on the results of this re-examination.

After hearing the cause and effect, Qin Yao didn't know what expression to use to face Liu Ji, a bastard.

 In the end, I could only accept the reality and asked him: "When will the retest be retested?"

 Liu Ji had a grimace on his face and said, "The day after tomorrow."

At this time, there was no chance for him to even prepare. It was just a matter of rushing the ducks to put it on the shelf.

Qin Yao sighed, then stood up, "Very good, let's thresh the wheat as a family first!"

 Liu Ji: “!!”

 Seeing how calm the stepmother was, the four children's ups and downs calmed down inexplicably. The family of six began the hard days of threshing wheat.

Qin Yao brought big stones and crushed them again and again.

The dragon and the phoenix are responsible for picking up the cleaned wheat straw.

Dalang Erlang is responsible for sweeping the wheat grains into the basket.

 Finally, Liu Ji used a sieve to completely separate the wheat grains and grass clippings, and poured them onto the drying mat to dry.

The wheat was harvested by two day laborers in two days. Qin Yao settled the wages to them, twenty-five cents per acre, totaling two hundred and fifty cents.

Liu Ji felt a little hurt when he looked at it. Two qian was a lot of silver, but thinking about the energy saved, after the two day laborers left, he immediately gave Qin Yao a complimentary thumbs up. Well done, madam!

Liu Ji suddenly came back, and the villagers curiously asked him if he had passed the exam. Wave after wave of people came, and they were all captured by Qin Yao.

Want to hear the results?    Very good, let's help thresh the wheat first.

Still want to know how to take the preliminary exam?

 Sure, I will tell you right away after sifting through the wheat grains.

Liu Ji looked at Qin Yao's **** moves, and without her reminding him, he immediately entered a mysterious state of smiling without saying a word. He would just laugh when others asked him anything, and he would only answer a few specious questions until they helped him with the work.

 Therefore, two days after Liu Ji returned home, no one in the village knew whether he had passed or not.

Even the Liu family’s old residence is confused.

However, Old Man Liu has a clear understanding of his son. It is most likely that he has not passed the exam. Otherwise, with the temperament of the third son, he would surely make the whole town know about it.

 To be so low-key now is not his style at all.

But just when Old Man Liu was sure of his guess, Qin Yao and Liu Ji drove their carriage to the county town on the afternoon of the second day after Liu Ji returned home.

Before departure, I also led Da Lang and Erlang to the old house, saying that the wheat was still drying at home, and they were going to the city for a few days. If it rained, I asked the old house to help keep an eye on it.

The four Dalang brothers and sisters still have one day off tomorrow and can enjoy half of the sun, so they only need to take care of the other half.

At the same time, he also handed over the keys to the front door of his home so that he could get the oxcart and handed them the work of picking up and dropping off students at school.

When he finally left, Qin Yao handed over an extra half a tael of silver to He as payment for hard work and food money for the four Dalang brothers and sisters.

　　It wasn’t until the couple drove a carriage out of Liujia Village carrying nineteen improved magic book boxes from the factory shed that everyone in the Liu family’s old house realized what they were doing.

 Old man Liu caught Da Lang and Er Lang who were running home and asked: "What are your parents doing in the county town?"

Dalang was very unsure of the results of his father's re-examination, and the results were not yet available, so he did not dare to say anything nonsense. He only replied: "My mother went to the county town to sell magical book boxes."

 Old man Liu obviously didn't believe it, "How many days will it take to sell book boxes?"

“Tell me honestly, did your father fail the first test?”

Dalang showed the tangled expression he had when Liu Jigang arrived home two days ago. He sighed like a young adult, nodded, and shook his head. Everyone in the Liu family's old house was confused.

But Dalang kept his mouth tight. No matter how many people in the old house asked him, he refused to say anything about Liu Ji's re-examination. He only gave an ambiguous explanation, "I will know when my Aunt Yao comes back."

Erlang also echoed: "We'll know when my mother comes back, don't be in a hurry."

Not in a hurry?

How can we not be anxious about this!

 Old man Liu rubbed his eyebrows. How big of a deal is the scientific examination? How come the third family can be so calm? He couldn't figure it out.

The old man waved his hand and had no choice but to let his two grandsons go home first.

"Wait!" After thinking about it, he asked Liu Bai to go with him and followed his two grandsons to his house to look at the wheat.

Qin Yao’s family harvested more than 1,900 kilograms from ten acres of land.

 After subtracting 40% of the rent, I still have 1,150 kilograms left.

 This is prime farmland. After being attacked by insects, the yield was directly reduced by 30%.

  But compared to the output per mu of most people in the village, this is already an enviable figure.

Old man Liu and his son stayed at Qin Yao's house for half an hour. They helped the four brothers and sisters get all the wheat into the yard and cover it with drying mats before going back.

 At the door of his home, Old Man Liu stood on the stone slab in front of the door, looking at the gray wheat fields in the village. He only hoped that Qin Yao and his wife, who had entered the city, would bring back good news to dilute the gloom in the village.

 Before the city gate closed, Qin Yao and his wife drove a carriage to the county seat of Kaiyang smoothly.

 After paying the sanitation management fee, the carriage drove directly into the city and stopped in front of Shopkeeper Fan's restaurant.
