“So if I want to participate in the imperial examination again, I have to start all over again.” Shen Yao explained the entire matter concisely.

However, Ji Zhao could hear countless dangers in these few words.

Back then, Sun He had put in a lot of effort to change Shen Yao’s grades!

Or rather, he had the intention to kill from the very beginning.

However, Shen Yao was lucky and did not lose his life.

“I believe you.” Ji Zhao suddenly tightened her grip on his broad palm. She smiled faintly and said with a firm gaze, “Shen Yao, I believe you can do it!”

“Ah Tao, thank you.” Shen Yao gently pressed his forehead against hers. A faint ripple appeared in the depths of his eyes. He gently kissed the dimples at the corner of her lips.

Ji Zhao shyly shrank into his arms and wrapped her arms around his neck. She took the initiative to kiss him.

If what she was experiencing was really just a dream, then her wish was— Continue dreaming. Don’t wake up so early!

After an unknown period of time, when Ji Zhao felt a cold sensation on her neck, she trembled nervously and placed her hands on his muscular chest in a panic. Her gentle almond-shaped eyes were filled with a layer of mist— “Shen Yao, why don’t we wait until it’s dark?’

Shen Yao, who was already prepared, smiled helplessly.

Then, he gently kissed her forehead. His deep voice was filled with suppressed desire.

“Okay.”

He loved Ah Tao and respected her even more.

Ji Zhao bit her lip nervously, but she didn’t realize that her innocent expression was more likely to make people commit crimes.

Shen Yao kissed her lips without hesitation. He nimbly pried open her teeth and wantonly plundered the fragrance between her lips and teeth!

At this moment, Ji Zhao felt that she could not breathe!

Her hands grabbed his muscular back forcefully and even left some scratches!

“Ah Tao.” Shen Yao suddenly leaned close to her ear and breathed softly.

The touch that came from her ear made Ji Zhao tremble uncontrollably!

“I love you.”

That deep voice was filled with seriousness and determination. Ji Zhao blinked obediently. In the end, she whispered back, ‘Me too.” Hearing this answer, Shen Yao’s eyes shone with a strange light.

He reluctantly let go of the lovely girl in his arms and turned to leave.

After a while, Zhao Lanhua’s puzzled voice came from the courtyard.

“Third Brother, why are you taking a cold bath? Be careful not to catch a cold!” Hearing this, Ji Zhao felt her face burn even hotter!

The next morning, the Shen father and son left for the county city early in the morning.

After Ji Zhao finished a large bowl of sweet tofu pudding, she walked towards the Earth Temple.

Fifteen minutes later, she successfully met Grandmaster Wuzhi.

The moment she placed the Bodhi bracelet on the table, Grandmaster Wuzhi’s expression did not change at all.

Ji Zhao raised her eyebrows in surprise and asked softly, ‘Master, you’ve already guessed what I’ll choose?’

“Benefactor, you must be joking.” Wuzhi gently shook his head. “Benefactor, your choice came from your own heart. How could this poor monk guess? It’s just that no matter what choice you make, this poor monk will not be surprised.

‘Why?”

“Fate,” Grandmaster Wuzhi said slowly. “The reason is determined by the heavens. It is fate that you came from afar. If one day you wake up from your dream and leave this place, it is also because of fate.”

“Therefore, Benefactor, whether you stay or go, it’s fate.”

“Master, do you mean that one day, I will still leave this world?”

“Namo Amitabha.” Grandmaster Wuzhi suddenly closed his eyes and did not answer Ji Zhao’s question.

Seeing Grandmaster Wuzhi’s attitude, Ji Zhao understood that no matter what questions she threw out, there would be no response.

At the end of April and the beginning of May, the Shen family’s courtyard was finally repaired.

After a discussion, the family decided to hold a good banquet to invite the villagers! Firstly, it was for the sake of liveliness. Secondly, the family had an additional son. Logically speaking, it should be a big banquet.

Hence, after receiving the message, Eldest Brother Shen immediately accompanied Eldest Sister-in-law Shen and the two month old Shen Hao, back to Shanghe Village.

As the sound of firecrackers continued, the entire Shen family’s courtyard was extremely lively.

In the kitchen, Ji Zhao was making popcorn chicken. The alluring fragrance floated in the air above the entire courtyard.

Ji Chen obediently sat outside the kitchen door with a big metal basin. When he heard his sister’s shout, he rushed into the kitchen.

“Try it?” Ji Zhao picked up a small bamboo stick, poked a popcorn chicken, and brought it to his mouth. “Is it fragrant?’

“It’s fragrant!” Ji Chen nodded vigorously. He looked up and grinned at his sister. “It’s delicious!”

“Eat more if it’s delicious!” Ji Zhao smiled and rubbed his little head. Then, she filled the big metal basin in his arms. “Go and eat with your friends! Our Chenchen has to learn to share delicious food!”

“Okay!” Ji Chen nodded vigorously and answered obediently.

Looking at Ji Chen’s change, Ji Zhao felt extremely gratified.

She was really grateful to everyone in the Shen family. When she brought Ji Chen to the Shen family, there were rumors spreading outside, but her mother-in-law and Shen Yao protected her. Gradually, those rumors disappeared.

More importantly, Shen Yao was very patient with Ji Chen.

If Shen Yao had not helped Chenchen open his heart, Ji Chen’s symptoms would not have improved.

At this moment, she was very glad that she had made the choice back then.

“Ah Tao, what are you thinking about?” When Second Sister-in-law Shen carried Zhuang Zhuang into the kitchen, she happened to see Ji Zhao in a daze and smiling foolishly. She immediately teased, “Are you very happy that Third Brother is coming back soon?”

About half a month ago, Shen Yao saved an old man who almost drowned in the county.

What was even more coincidental was that this old man was actually a relative of the current county magistrate of Dingyuan County, Official Ji.

Official Ji was very grateful to Shen Yao. Not only did he help him restore his school record, but he also insisted on reporting his heroic deeds to the government office.

According to the laws of the Great Jing Dynasty, those who acted bravely and righteously could be rewarded with ten taels of gold.

Calculating the time, Shen Yao should be back soon.

“Second Sister-in-law, you’re teasing me again.” Ji Zhao looked away shyly.

“I’m not thinking about Shen Yao!”

“Ah Tao doesn’t miss her husband at all?”

At this moment, Shen Yao’s voice suddenly sounded!

Ji Zhao suddenly raised her head and rushed into his arms, hugging his waist enthusiastically.

Second Sister-in-law Shen, who had eaten a few popcorn chickens in a row, hurriedly covered Zhuang Zhuang’s eyes. “Zhuang Zhuang, don’t look.. Let’s retreat quickly!’
