Transmigrating To The Ancient Times With Lu's Convenience

Chapter 166

"But who would think such a talented young genius would marry Chen Xiao Mai!"

"Exactly! We've all met Mai, he's a bit special, isn't he?"

"Beats me! Maybe he has seen something in Mai that no one else has seen, I don't know."

"This is indeed strange!"

"I heard that the smarter the people are, the more eccentric they are. Some smart people don't like to become government officials, they would rather live an impoverished life than live restricted lives... so it's not that strange for Ji Yun An to marry Chen Xiao Mai."

......

In Lu family.

Li Fang Yue looked at Tang and said, "Mother, my husband has locked himself in the room again."

Tang nodded and said, "Okay."

Tang tried to approach Lu Cheng Yu two days ago. When Lu Cheng Yu saw Tang entering his room, he viciously told her to get out of his room.

In the past few years, Lu Cheng Yu had become more and more ruthless. And no one in the family had tried to teach him how to behave, as a result, Lu Cheng Yu had become more and more extreme.

"It's all the villagers' fault," Tang said sullenly.

In the past few years, Lu Lin had become more and more established, and the villagers all treated the Lu family less seriously.

When Tang heard that Chen Xiao Mai's husband ranked the third in the exam that her own son didn't pass, Tang felt very depressed. Back then, Ji Yun An gave up on his result for a better ranking, Tang made fun of Ji Yun An for his ambition. But now Tang had to accept the fact that Xiao Mai married a genius.

In comparison, her own son was much inferior.

But Tang refused to think less of her son, she started to blame Lu Cheng Yu's teachers at school.

Tang sighed and accepted her fate.

The two elders of the family had passed away, Tang and Lu Cheng Yu's uncles divided up family property and lived apart since that.

Lu Cheng Yu, being a Xiucai, enjoyed tax exemption on farmland. Although the family farmland was divided, Lu Cheng Yu's fourth uncle, Lu An, had put his farmland under Lu Cheng Yu's name to save some tax money.

Tang originally wanted to turn Lu An down, but Lu An was not someone to be trifled with, he threatened to notify the local government about Grandma Lu's death. He said he knew the truth of Grandma Lu's death, Grandma Lu was abused to death by Tang and Lu Cheng Yu.

Tang immediately panicked, she didn't want her son's name to be tarnished.

Tang only had one son and one daughter, her daughter was married off a long time ago and Lu Cheng Yu had never helped with farm work. Tang had to do everything in busy farming season, she didn't age well at all.

Lu Cheng Yu failed so many times, Tang couldn't help but feel discouraged. She thought that her son might not be able to pass the exam for good, but she dared not mention a word to Lu Cheng Yu.

......

In Sha County.

Shen Chi sat next to Chen Xiao Cai and asked him, "It looks like everything is done!"

Chen Xiao Cai nodded and said, "Yeah, finally!"

The stores and properties under their names were all sold out, Xiao Cai got 10,000 taels of silver in hand now.

Chen Xiao Cai weighed and balanced about the hot springs resort again and again, he still couldn't bear to sell it to anyone. As a result, Chen Xiao Cai entrusted the Hot Springs Resort to Liu Yun.
