Chapter 641 - 642: Time Flies

Unfortunately, Ye Zi’an couldn’t continue to take the higher-level exams in one go.

Last year was the autumn surround exam, and the teacher from Li’s Village took the exam during that time.

The autumn surround is held once every three years, so Ye Zi’an needs to wait another two years to take the exam.

Ye Zi’an didn’t think it was a pity; after all, he still has two years to study harder and solidify his knowledge.

In his spare time, he can also travel and broaden his horizons. In two years, he plans to pass both the autumn surround and spring exams in one go.

His teacher, Mr.Luo, also had the same idea, encouraging him to study for two more years and try to pass both exams in one attempt.

Time flies like a white horse crossing a gap, fleeting in a blink of an eye.

In the blink of an eye, two years have passed. This year, Yang Chuxia is fifteen years old and Ye Zi’an is eighteen years old – both at the perfect age.

In these two years, Ye Zi’an followed his plan to study at the academy in the prefecture for one year, followed by a year of traveling with Teacher Luo to different places.

During these two years, Yang Chuxia expanded her family’s business, adding new shops in the county and prefecture, as well as a few more shops in other counties of Funan.

By now, almost everyone in Wangquan and Quanya knows about the Yang Family, whose business is doing exceptionally well, offering delicious food and a variety of rare items. What’s unbelievable is that the person at the helm of the Yang Family is a young girl who hasn’t even reached adulthood yet.

Some families tried to take advantage of her but gave up when they learned she was already engaged and had been betrothed since childhood.

At the Yang Family’s side, their house has been extended and is much larger than before. The number of servants has also increased, and the two younger brothers are still studying, preparing to take the exams next spring.

Old Yang is still in good health, and people like Yang Dachuan and Ms.Wang, despite their age, seem more youthful now that their living conditions have improved.

As for Luo Linhao and Luo Linyu, they haven’t returned to Capital City once in these two years, staying in Yangshu Village instead. Only Mu Shaoling occasionally visits them.

It’s unclear what Baili Yan is thinking. Even though there’s sufficient evidence against the Li Family, he hasn’t eliminated them yet. It seems that the two kids won’t return until the Li Family is dealt with.

For Yang Chuxia, she wishes the two kids would return home soon, especially the annoying Luo Linhao, who makes her want to hit him every time he speaks.

For instance, at the moment:

"Oh, oh, oh, look at that frown on your face, my cousin is coming back, didn’t you receive a letter the other day saying he arrived in the prefecture?" Afterward, he continued, "Don’t worry, he’ll definitely be back before you come of age. But ..."

He paused, and Yang Chuxia knew that there would be nothing good coming.

As expected, he said, "The thing is, I don’t know if my cousin is bringing home a little sister-in-law."

"Shut up."

Fifteen-year-old Yang Chuxia isn’t short anymore, being slightly taller than Luo Linhao.

So she quickly twisted the little devil’s ear.

"Which eye of yours saw me looking worried?" she snorted, "I don’t care if he comes back or not. If he doesn’t, I’ll kick him out with one foot."

Since February, Ye Zi’an had gone on another trip, promising to return on her birthday, but now only a few days were left, and she couldn’t help but feel anxious. Luckily, a letter arrived the day before yesterday, saying he was on his way.

"My dear, it’s been a long time since we last met, and I’ve just come back. Is it really good for you to say you want to kick me out?"
