The Female Officer Became a Farmer After Getting Reborn



154 Butcher He Expelled His Wife

Madam Huang pulled the small bag over and opened it. Seeing that all the money in the house was indeed inside, she believed that Butcher He was determined to let her go.

Madam Huang looked at the money in her bag and felt a little afraid. Where else could she go at this age? Besides, she had never thought of leaving!

Madam Huang held the small bag and suppressed her guilt. She still looked at Butcher He domineeringly. “You really want me to leave? Think about it. Xiaoyu’s wedding date is only two days away. What will you say when people ask about me? I’m not the only one who will be embarrassed.”

“Do you still care about embarrassment?” Butcher He smiled bitterly. “Sigh! Forget it! You don’t have to worry about those things. Without you kicking a fuss at home all day, we can live a little more relaxed.”

Butcher He recalled how Madam Huang had caused trouble all these years. The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. He pulled Madam Huang over. “Leave! I’ve had enough of this kind of life. I’m not afraid of losing face.”

Seeing that Butcher He was serious, Madam Huang panicked. “Xiaoyu’s father, why don’t I wait for Xiaoyu’s wedding to pass?” Madam Huang pulled the door frame and looked at Butcher He. “I promise not to lose my temper. Xiaoyu is also my daughter. Can you wait for me to send Xiaoyu out before leaving?”

Butcher He stopped and hesitated for a moment before shaking his head. “Forget it. I don’t believe you’ll change. If you make a fuss again on your daughter’s good day, that will kill her. You should leave!”

Madam Huang was flustered. She looked at Butcher He and clasped her hands together. “Husband, I swear that I won’t make a fuss again. Believe me, I will change in the future and never throw a tantrum again.”

Butcher He was delighted. He looked at Madam Huang without a change in expression and said solemnly, “Since you’ve said so, for the sake of my daughter, I’ll keep you for now. If you still make a fuss, don’t blame me for chasing you out on the spot.”

Madam Huang pulled Butcher He’s collar. “Yes! I promise not to make a fuss.”

When He Xiaoyu and her brother returned with the furniture and saw that Madam Huang had already started cooking, He Tiezhu patted his head and looked at He Xiaoyu. He whispered, “Eh! Did the sun rise from the west today?”

“The sun hasn’t even risen today.” He Xiaoyu rolled her eyes at him. “Brother, go and get Father to carry the things in.”

“Alright, hold on to the car first!” He Tiezhu ran into the central room and looked at Butcher He, who was tying the red rope to the furniture, with a smile. “Father, your ability has improved? Why are you done coaxing her so quickly today?”

Butcher He knocked on his son proudly. “Your father has a lot of skills! Learn from him!”

After Li Yu returned home, Zhou Jia handed his notes and notes to Li Qing.

Zhou Jia looked at Li Qing and said, “Ah Qing, here are Brother-in-law’s insights over the years, as well as the questions I wrote down after a few exams and the summary after the exams. Take a good look and integrate the knowledge you learned from Mr. Lin. Brother-in-law believes that you can do it. After we leave, bring Ah Lei to Tongzhou to run errands for you. He’ll be yours in the future.”

Li Qing looked at the notes in the box and bowed gratefully to Zhou Jia. “I understand, Brother-in-law. Ah Qing will definitely not let you down. Just wait for my good news!”

Seeing Li Qing’s confident expression, Li Yu was a little worried. After all, in her previous life, she knew that famous people in history had also experienced difficult examinations.

When the siblings sat together and chatted at night, Li Yu said to Li Qing, “Ah Qing, I want you to promise me something.”

Li Qing looked at Li Yu seriously. “Sister, I’ll definitely do it.”

“I know you want to be on the rankings in one go so you can look for us in the capital, but you have to know that the examination isn’t something that can be done overnight. I want you to promise me that you won’t take your gains and losses too seriously and save yourself from suffering.”

Li Qing thought for a while when he heard that. He looked at Li Yu and said seriously, “Sister, I know you’re worried that I won’t do well and won’t be able to take the blow. Don’t worry, I never thought that I would be able to become the Top Scorer on my first try like Brother-in-law. What you’re worried about won’t happen.”

Li Yu looked at Li Qing in relief. “Yes! Sister, don’t worry. Our Ah Qing is a responsible man.”

Li Qing smiled shyly. “Sister, don’t praise me.”

The next day, Zhou Jia, Li Qing, and Ah Lei went to Tongzhou together. He sent Li Qing to the private school and entrusted him to Mr. Lin. Then he went to Shen Wu’s house alone. When he reached Shen Wu’s house, he saw that the door was closed and even his old family had disappeared. Zhou Jia was a little worried. He turned around and went to the garrison office to find Secretary Xu to ask for information.

When Secretary Xu saw Zhou Jia, he smiled and cupped his hands. “Congratulations, Top Scorer. I’ve long felt that Mr. Zhou’s talent is extraordinary. As expected.”

“Thank you for the compliment. I was just lucky. I want to ask you, why hasn’t General Shen returned to Tongzhou?”

“High Official Zhou, General Shen Wu has yet to return from Qingzhou. His family is worried and has gone to serve his young master with the people here.”

When Zhou Jia heard this, he frowned and said, “Mr. Xu, is there still no peace in Qingzhou?”

Secretary Xu pulled Zhou Jia to the side and lowered his voice. “The rioters have been suppressed, but the border isn’t very peaceful yet. However, it’s nothing serious. The drought in Great Qi is much worse than ours. They won’t dare to act rashly.”

Zhou Jia cupped his hands in thanks. “Oh! I see. Thank you, Secretary Xu.”

Zhou Jia came out of the garrison office and went to the shop. Zhao Cai wanted to follow the two of them to the capital and was handing over the accounts with Ji Xiang.

When the two of them saw Zhou Jia, they put down the work in their hands and reported to Zhou Jia, “Young Master, the custom-made carriage has been sent over. Shopkeeper Chu sent two strong horses over and thanked Young Madam for sending Er Ya to help.”

“I understand. Have you two done the handover?”

Zhao Cai replied, “Alright, those shopkeepers are familiar with each other.”

Zhou Jia looked at Ji Xiang and instructed, “Ji Xiang, you’ve become much more mature now. In the future, you’ll be in charge of the shop here. The burden on your shoulders is different from before. The few junior stewards in the shop who are promising can slowly be promoted. Remember to know how to use people well and take things one step at a time. Don’t be rash, understand?”

Ji Xiang looked at Zhou Jia reluctantly with red eyes. “Young Master, I’ll remember.”

Zhao Cai patted Ji Xiang and teased, “Shopkeeper Ji Xiang, don’t cry! When Young Master and Young Madam arrive in the capital and settle down, you still have to deliver the goods!”

Lucky slapped Zhao Cai’s hand away. “Who’s crying? I’m just being sentimental.”

Zhou Jia looked at the two people playing and laughed. “Ji Xiang, it’s not embarrassing to cry. As a man, it’s embarrassing to be sentimental.”

Ji Xiang twisted around and picked up the account book. “Young Master, you’re bullying me too. I’ll ignore you.”

In the blink of an eye, it was October. From then on, Madam Huang had obediently stopped causing trouble. After Li Yu and his wife settled Ruyi’s marriage, they prepared to go to the capital to take the exam.

Zhou Jia was afraid that the road would be slippery after the weather turned cold. After discussing with Li Yu, the two of them decided to set off early.
