Godly Farmer Doctor: Arrogant Husband, Can’t Afford to Offend! - Chapter 341
Chapter 341: One-track minded
Old Lady Bai was not as foolish as Mrs. Liu. She always felt like there was something wrong in Bai Xiaofeng’s words, and his eyes were erratic. He doesn’t speak the way he usually speaks, so she couldn’t help but ask: “Xiaofeng, did you really take the third place? You’re not lying to us?”
Mrs. Liu turned her head and looked at the old lady: “Niang, what do you mean by this? Xiaofeng will lie to us? It must be true. How smart is our Xiaofeng, don’t you know? What’s so strange about being in third place?”
Old Lady Bai ignored Mrs. Liu’s nonsense and just stared at Bai Xiaofeng.
Bai Xiaofeng swallowed a mouth of saliva and then smiled. “Grandmother, of course, it’s true, how can I lie to you?”
Old Lady Bai still has doubts in her heart, but because Bai Xiaofeng said it’s true, she also felt quite relieved. Her favorite grandson will never lie to her.
Mrs. Liu’s angrily screamed at Mrs. Zhang in anger: “Did you hear that? My Xiaofeng took third place in the exam. If it was in the capital, he will be considered—” Mrs. Liu looked up at the sky and thought: “I remember it now. If it was in the capital, he’ll be called Tanghua.” Mrs. Liu looked at her son with great pride, as if her son already got the title Tanghua.
Mrs. Zhang said with a smile: “I don’t know what Tanghua is all about, but I heard only the top 10 can participate in the country exam next month. The examination will be held for a couple of days, so Lu Dafu looked for a good place that they could stay and booked rooms in the inn. They will go there in a few days.”
Mrs. Liu was shocked, but then she immediately pulled Bai Xiaofeng’s sleeve and asked: “Xiaofeng? Why didn’t you tell us about this? It’s been a while, what if you got late in taking the exam?”
When Old Lady Bai heard of this, what else does she need to ask? Bai Xiaofeng clearly failed to be in the top 10. He might even be in the last place, just like what Mrs. Zhang said…. …
But Mrs. Liu kept believing her son and refused to wake up.
Bai Xiaofeng awkwardly looked at Mrs. Zhang and cursed her inside his heart.
Seeing Bai Xiaofeng not talking, Mrs. Liu said with reddened eyes: “You must not want to burden our family because of your exam. You can rest assured that the most important thing in this family is your exam. Just wait, I’ll discuss it with your grandma.”
Mrs. Liu turned around and walked close to the old lady: “Niang, Xiaofeng needs to take the country exam in the few days. How much money do you have? Let’s use it for Xiaofeng first. Once Xiaofeng becomes a big official, he will give it to you a hundred times bigger.”
Old Lady Bai was very stingy, why was she so stingy? It’s all because of Bai Xiaofeng’s studies and exams.
Old Lady Bai stared at Bai Xiaofeng and asked: “Did you really took the third place? Do you want to take the country exam?”
Bai Xiaofeng knows that he can’t deceive them any further, but he doesn’t want his image in the family plummeted, so he still tried to argue: “Teacher said that I’m still young, so I don’t need to take the exam this year. He didn’t sign me up, so I don’t need to go.”
Mrs. Liu was shocked: “What nonsense are you talking about? How old are you? Even if you passed the exam, you have to wait for another 3 years? At that time, you will be 17. And when you take the provincial exam, you will be 20. How can you be young? Now is the right time to take the exam!”
Bai Xiaofeng frowned and said: “It’s not a big deal. My teacher said so, so I can’t do anything about it.”
Mrs. Liu doesn’t care about anyone’s face. She just wants to live a good life as early as possible. She’s not willing to wait for another day.
