The Prime Minister's Boastful Little Husband

Chapter 30

You should first sit on a chair in the yard and be ready to listen.

"Actually, there is no big reason. Back then, my second brother was admitted as a scholar, and his future was bright. I met your mother that year, and we got married soon. Everything went smoothly, but I don't know where the news came from. Your mother's grandfather once worked as a civil servant, so the family began to persuade me to divorce your mother." Ying Cai paused here.

Zaoli are servants who work in the yamen and are considered lowly servants. If one person in the family is a Zaoli, then three generations will not be able to take part in the imperial examination.

"Is it because I'm afraid that my mother will affect my second uncle's career?" Yingchu asked.

Ying Cai nodded.

"But, this is just that my mother's immediate family members cannot take the imperial examination within three generations. Doesn't it affect my second uncle?" Ying Chu was confused.

"This imperial examination system was established when officials took office. Logically speaking, it cannot affect my second brother. But this matter was widely known to everyone, even if it was a stain, my second brother was studying in the county at that time. With this stain, he couldn't stand other people's criticism and dropped out of school. When he came back, he forced me to abandon your mother. I didn't agree. We were very unhappy, so we separated and told everyone that he and us We have severed all ties, everything we do has nothing to do with him, and we will never have any contact with each other."

The matter was far from being as easy as Ying Cai made it sound. Back then, his mother forced him to divorce his wife, with parents on one side and his wife on the other. In the end, he had no choice but to separate the family.

Because the second brother was a scholar and the hope of the whole family, everyone turned to him. Except for the fact that the land was equally divided, he didn't have any other property in the family.

After the separation, they sold their part of the land and moved to the county town with all their money. Ying Cai's family stayed alone in the village. At that time, people in the village said that he was stupid for not knowing that he had divorced his wife and stayed with the family. Let's go to the county town together to enjoy the blessings. Maybe we can marry a good girl from the city when we go to the county town.

Ying Cai ignored these claims because he was the only one who knew that even without his wife, he would not have followed his second brother to the county seat.

Although the eldest brother in the family is lazy, he is tactful and adapts to the situation. He is also the eldest son and is loved by his mother. When he was young, his mother asked his two brothers to go to school, but she would not let him go. At a young age, he He was responsible for the farm work of the whole family. When he got older, all the money he earned was turned over and he never hid any of it secretly. It can be said that he gave away his second brother.

But when the family was divided and no money was left for him, he had already seen clearly that in this family, he was just a dispensable person. Once he became a hindrance, no one would help him. They would only do their best. Get rid of him.

"Dad, it's okay. Some people's human nature is very cold, but you have us now, and we all love you. So the most important thing for our family to be happy is to let the old things go. "Ying Youchu said comfortingly.

Ying Cai was a little sad at first, but when he heard Ying Chu say that they all loved him, his old face turned red, and he waved his hand and said, "Okay, okay, I understand. You can go back home and read a book."

After Ying Ying first saw that Ying Cai was really fine, he returned to the back room. He sat at his desk, reviewing what Ying Cai said in his mind.

The fact that his mother's grandfather was a civil servant was just a trigger. Even without this incident, the separation of the family would have been inevitable.
