MTL - After Dressing Up As a Stepmother, I Transformed the Whole Family Into Working In the Fields-Chapter 204 It's just a foil

 At the time of the re-examination, many scholars flooded into Kaiyang County, and the restaurants and guest rooms were full.

Liu Ji could still go back to the academy dormitory, but Qin Yao could only unload the book box in the corner of the backyard of the restaurant and spend the night in the carriage.

 You can lie down wherever you want in the mountains, and there is a roof to cover it. Qin Yao has no complaints.

The restaurant lobby was also full, and the couple waited in line for a long time to get a hot meal.

The kitchen master knows Qin Yao's appetite very well and directly serves her for five people.

Of course, the checkout is much more expensive than others.

 Liu Ji saw Qin Yao taking out the money without blinking an eye, and then touched his empty money bag, feeling envious and wanting to cry.

After Qin Yao finished settling the bill, she turned around and saw his resentful expression, and reminded her coldly:

"There will be a re-examination tomorrow. Why don't you go back to your dormitory early to review your homework?"

The ten taels of silver she gave out earlier were all wasted because of a retest, and now she is in a very bad mood!

 Liu Ji was very discerning, so naturally he did not dare to provoke her at this time.

This is not home. If he dies, no one will collect his body.

"Madam, I'm going back to the academy first, and you should rest early." Liu Ji looked concerned.

Qin Yao said impatiently: "I will pick you up tomorrow morning."

 “Hey, okay.” Liu Ji left the restaurant with a smile. When he turned around, his smile instantly faded, leaving only a look of apprehension in his eyes.

He thought that he was destined to have no sleep that night.

But he didn't want to. As soon as he lay down on the bed in the dormitory, he fell asleep.

By the time Liu Ji woke up with a start, morning light had already appeared on the horizon.

Remembering that Qin Yao said she would pick him up and take him to the examination room, he quickly got up, prepared the things needed to enter the examination room, and carried the heavy book box out of the academy gate.

There were several classmates in the same group. They all passed the exam, but less than an hour after the joy, they received the bad news of the re-examination. They were all anxious, sleepless all night, and everyone was listless.

 The book says that once you make great efforts, you will be weak again, and three times you will be exhausted. This is a true portrayal of the students in the academy at this moment.

In comparison, Liu Ji had a good night's sleep and felt refreshed, which attracted frequent glances from his classmates, secretly envious of his good attitude.

 After all, I came back from the border experience, and my state of mind is stable.

When Qin Yao drove the carriage to the gate of the academy, Liu Ji happened to come out. The couple looked at each other, and there was a tacit understanding that no need to be said.

Liu Ji got on the vacant car seat on the other side and followed his wife to the examination center under the jealous eyes of his classmates.

Qin Yao even brought him breakfast. The food in the restaurant was a hundred times better than the food at the roadside stall.

 But while eating, a chill ran down Liu Ji's spine. Could this be his meal?

　　Forget it, it’s a meal before you eat it. Eat it first and then talk about it. You can’t live up to such delicious food!

Before entering the examination room, Qin Yao gave Liu Ji a rare gentle smile and patted him on the shoulder, "Relax and take the exam well."

I thought to myself: I can’t let my investment go to waste.

 Liu Ji: "What if he fails the exam?" Will he die without a burial place?

Qin Yao said softly: "It doesn't matter, continue next year. If it doesn't work next year, come back the year after that. If you persevere, you will eventually pass."

 An unexpected answer, he thought she would say kill him or something like that.

Liu Ji was moved with non-existent tears in the corners of his eyes, and held Qin Yao's hand, "Don't worry, madam, I will do my best for my husband!"

After finishing speaking, he released his hand before her face changed, picked up the book box, and resolutely entered the examination room door.

Qin Yao watched him enter the gate, turned around, took out the book box from the carriage and placed it diagonally opposite the examination room for sale!

 Hand and wife, one is selling boxes of books at the door, collecting and counting money, they are as happy as gods.

A man was doing the retest in the room, feeling anxious and nervous and sweating profusely.

But one thing was strange. Liu Ji found that not only his seat had not changed at all, but even the scholars sitting in front, back and left were exactly the same as in the previous test.

They looked at each other and saw the same confusion in each other's eyes. Subsequently, the number of invigilators, twice as many as those in the first preliminary examination, came in, guarding the four corners of the room respectively, with eyes as sharp as eagles, staring at everyone present.

 The younger one was so nervous that his hands were trembling.

 Liu Ji didn't feel much. Compared to Qin Yao's death gaze, these were nothing.

 Wait until the examiner reads out the examination rules and then start distributing the examination papers.

 Liu Ji took a deep breath and prayed to God to bless him and make the questions on the test paper simpler.

　　When the examiner read the name ‘Liu Ji’, Liu Ji immediately stood up and stepped forward to receive his own test paper and answer sheet.

Liu Ji returned to his seat, spread out the examination paper and took a look. Liu Ji was stunned.

　　Not only him, but also the people on the left and behind had the same expression.

 Because the questions on the test paper are exactly the same as those in the first test.

Even when Liu Jidang raised his head, his eyes met the student on the left. The two quickly exchanged glances and already understood that whether it was the previous preliminary test or this retest, they were all just for someone. Made the game.

 These people are just foils.

 But Liu Ji was too willing to be a foil!

Everyone tacitly answered the question silently. Since it was the same question and everyone had exchanged answers after the first test, Liu Ji felt no pressure at all when answering it, and it could even be considered easy.

Soon, he filled up his answer sheet, but it was still early and no one dared to hand it in in advance.

 It wasn’t until the first person got up that people started to leave.

Liu Ji saw that almost everyone was leaving, so he stood up slowly, straightened his clothes first, and walked out of the examination room calmly.

The nineteen book boxes brought by Qin Yao were sold out early, causing a frenzy of looting. The book boys from various families almost started fighting for fear that they would not be able to grab them.

Since I couldn’t buy it, I asked the store address and wanted to go to Qin Yao’s house to buy it next time.

 It’s a pity that Qin Yao doesn’t have a store, so she can only say sorry to them.

“But I will come to the market next time.”

 Everyone asked her to bring more book boxes next time, and then they dispersed, because the candidates had already appeared one after another.

Qin Yao counted the money and gave it to the official who managed the market for a commission. He got a total of ten taels.

When Liu Ji left the examination room, Qin Yao was sitting in front of the cake stall opposite the examination room, drinking soup and eating cakes. The cakes with meat and mushrooms were crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and full of delicious flavor.

Seeing Liu Ji's figure appear, Qin Yao immediately raised her hand to wave.

Liu Ji suppressed the excitement of carrying the secret and walked over. He picked up the remaining half bowl of soup in front of her and drank it in one gulp, suppressing his shock.

"You think..." Before she could say the word "death", Liu Ji sat down opposite her and shouted to the stall owner very confidently: "Just do what she did and get another one!"

The stall owner smiled and agreed, bringing three mushroom patties and a bowl of bone soup and placing them in front of Liu Ji.

Seeing that he had a bookcase next to him and that he was walking out of the examination room, I said congratulations first.

 Liu Ji smiled politely and said, "Thank you very much!"

When the stall owner left, he picked up the meat pie and smacked it with one hand. He leaned in front of Qin Yao and whispered to her: "Madam, you are safe this time!"

If he is not listed on the list, he will also report it. At worst, everyone will do it again!

Qin Yao raised her eyebrows and raised her palm to give Liu Ji a slap in the face. At this moment, when she heard the word "steady", she urgently withdrew her strength and almost 'touched' Liu Ji's handsome face.

 The cold hand caressed Liu Ji's face, a spring smile of enjoyment appeared on his face, and goosebumps already appeared on his body.

It was so dangerous, I almost got beaten.

The stall owner who witnessed the whole process felt his heart pounding. Is there anyone who cares about the life and death of this widower? ! (End of chapter)
