Farmer's eldest sister becomes rich

Chapter 462 Villagers Congratulations

For example; some people carry chickens and ducks, and some carry baskets filled with eggs.

There were also people carrying large strips of meat, and some carrying rice.

The village chief stood by the road and said with a smile: "Yueyue Niannian, you are finally back."

An Yue stepped forward and asked with a puzzled look on her face: "Uncle, what's going on?"

The village chief laughed heartily and said, "Haha, the villagers were so happy when they learned that Nian Nian had passed the examination. A group of people came to my house with gifts and insisted on coming over to congratulate you."

An Yue turned around and looked at the villagers, each of whom was holding gifts in their hands, and her heart was filled with emotion.

She said quickly, "Dear uncles, aunts, we appreciate your kindness. But these gifts are too valuable, we cannot accept them."

Li Ergou, who was standing next to the village chief, said loudly: "Yue girl, every year he passed the examination and became a scholar. This is a great event in our Baili Village. Everyone is happy about it. You must accept these gifts."

Another old man with a cane also said: "Girl, it is you who led us to become rich, and we have such a good life now."

"We have never given you any money. Now that you have passed the imperial examination, we will bring you some things. You must accept them."

Another old woman echoed, "Yes, the old saying is right, when you drink the water, you should remember the well digger. You are a blessing to our village."

"What's more, Nian Nian has passed the examination and is the pride of our entire village. It is reasonable for us to bring some gifts to congratulate him. It is nothing."

An Nian walked forward, and the brother and sister bowed deeply to the villagers at the same time.

An Nian said: "Thank you all uncles, grandparents, aunts and aunts for your kindness. I will continue to study hard."

The village chief smiled and said, "Girl, Nian Nian, you and your brother should accept it! This is also a token of our kindness."

An Yuejian couldn't refuse, so she had to accept the gifts and invited the villagers to sit in her yard.

Sister-in-law Meng Xiuer heard a lot of noise outside, and saw that it was An Yue and the others who had returned, followed by a group of villagers.

She led Xiaobao forward and asked with a smile, "Yueyue, what happened?"

Before An Yue could speak, her aunt came forward, holding Xiaobao and Meng Xiuer's hands and walked towards the kitchen.

As they walked, she explained to her daughter-in-law, "Xiu'er, our family has made great progress every year. We have even passed the imperial examination and become a scholar!"

After hearing this, Meng Xiuer stood there in a daze.

She said with an incredible look on her face: "What? Passed the exam every year?"

Zhang smiled and nodded, and said excitedly: "Yes, you see, everyone in our village has come to congratulate us, how can this be false?"

Meng Xiuer clasped her hands together excitedly, extremely excited.

"That's great! God, this is really an honor for the family!"

The eldest aunt picked up Xiaobao and said with a smile: "That's right! The children in our An family are better than the last one. Our Xiaobao will definitely be good in the future."

"Mom is right! If our little treasure can pass the imperial examination and become a scholar, then our An family will be so proud!"

"Oh, by the way, we have to quickly boil some water to make tea to entertain the villagers."

"Yes, yes, boil some water and make some tea."

The villagers walked into the An family's yard. An Nian, Chunzhi, Daniu and others moved the benches in the main hall to the yard and asked the villagers to sit down one by one.

There were a limited number of stools, so the young people automatically sat in a row under the eaves.

The village chief and several elders in the village sat on the bench and pulled An Nian to sit among them.

The villagers sat together, praising Anyue for being so smart and how amazing it was that Anynian passed the imperial examination and became a scholar.

An Yue put away the gifts she received one by one, while Meng Xiu'er and her aunt-in-law and the other mother-in-law boiled water and made tea in the kitchen.

Chunzhi and Daniu took out the only melon seeds and peanuts they had in their house and put them on a plate to entertain the villagers who came to congratulate them.

The villagers sat in the yard, peeling peanuts, cracking melon seeds, occasionally drinking tea, and chatting happily.

At this time, the village chief suddenly stood up, cleared his throat and said: "Today, our Baili Village has also produced a scholar. This is the pride of our entire Baili Village!"

"Also, with Yueyue's help, the lives of our villagers are getting better and better."

"Now that life is better, we must also focus on cultivating the younger generation in our village."

"If the family has the conditions, we should try our best to send the children to school. Even if they cannot become officials, as long as they can read and write, we can keep the good life we ​​have now."

The villagers nodded in agreement.

The old man sitting next to the village chief also said: "Yes, it would be best if our village could produce a few more scholars and juren in the future."

Li Ergou said, "Yes, if our children are successful, it will be so glorious!"

An Nian saw that although the villagers were illiterate, they were all very eager for knowledge.

An Nian stood up, cupped his hands and said, "My dear elders, I will study harder and bring honor to our village in the future."

When the villagers heard this, they all clapped and cheered excitedly.

......

As the sun sets, the sky gradually darkens.

The village chief and the villagers all stood up and prepared to go back to their homes.

The village chief said: "Yueyue, now that we can dig herbs to exchange for money, everyone is busy every day."

"Tomorrow morning, we have to go out to dig herbs. Seeing that it is getting late, we will go back first."

An Yue nodded and said, "Okay, I won't keep you all here for long. If you have any questions about herbs in the future, you can talk to me."

Afterwards, the An family members collectively saw the villagers off and sent them to the main road.

He didn't return to the yard until the villagers had gone far away.

The family sat in the yard, enjoying this unprecedented joy.

----

After a while, my aunt and sister-in-law Meng Xiuer put on their aprons and prepared to go to the kitchen to cook dinner.

The big cow A'er went out to cut grass with a basket on his back, and cut pig grass in spring to feed poultry and livestock.

An Yue sat in the armchair under the grape vine trellis, watching the family members busying themselves with their work.

Three years like one day.

Now, it is summer again.

An Yue looked up at the dim stars in the sky and recalled every detail of the past three years.

Although the business is doing better and better now, the family is spending less time together.

In three years, An Yue first changed her own predicament.

Then he changed the entire An family and led all the villagers on the road to prosperity.

Now, An Nian has successfully passed the examination and become a scholar.

Looking around, everything is moving in the right direction.

Now that she has some savings, An Yue plans to rent a shop in the county town in the second half of the year and start a hot pot restaurant.
