They've all separated, so what does it matter to me if they get poorer and poorer?

Chapter 389 Young Master Ji Leaves
"Then don't say it."

"Is it alright if you don't tell me?"

"It's alright, I will repay this debt on behalf of the Xu family sooner or later."

Xu Zhichun was relieved. "That's good. Count me in too."

Liang Minglang chuckled, "Okay."

He lowered his head and gently kissed her cheek. "Go to sleep."

"Ah."

Neither of them had any romantic thoughts; they quietly embraced and fell asleep, their minds in turmoil for a while before they drifted off.

When the two woke up the next day, Ji Yingxuan had already left.

He left no words behind.

He could accept this unbelievable fact, but he couldn't bear to watch Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang together, so he simply chose to ignore it.

Since they weren't familiar with each other and they might not have genuinely welcomed him as a guest, there was no need for him to say goodbye.

Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang had some idea of ​​Ji Yingxuan's thoughts.

Fine, let them go then.

After everything was laid out, they felt somewhat awkward facing each other.

However, Xu Zhichun felt a pang of sadness, though she couldn't quite put her finger on it, thinking that Ji Yingxuan's departure meant they might never see each other again.

If prayers could come true, she prayed that the real Xu Zhichun was still alive in this world, just like her, so that one day she could be reunited with Ji Yingxuan after a long separation and never be apart again.
These days, Ji Yingxuan has been spending a lot of time wandering around the village and chatting with people. Now that he has suddenly left, the villagers still ask Xu Zhichun and the others a few questions about Young Master Ji. They are quite disappointed to hear that Young Master Ji has left, saying that it is a bit strange that he left so suddenly.

Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang were left speechless, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

With the imperial examination drawing ever closer, five days before the exam, Xu Zhichun and Liang Minglang went to the county school to bring Liang Mingxuan back.

I'll go directly from home to the exam venue.

Since the exams will last for three days, the county school is short of manpower and vehicles and cannot organize the students properly. Everyone should go home and make their own decisions, as long as they don't miss the exam time.

During and around the time of the exam, Qin Ning'an, Mr. and Mrs. Qin warmly invited them to stay at the Qin family home. Mrs. Qin even sent Granny Xi to visit and tell them that Xu Zhichun had politely declined.

He only said that he would visit them when the time came, and if there was anything he could help with, he would definitely ask Mr. and Mrs. Qin.

Only after hearing this did Granny Xi leave, and she said with a smile, "Then Madam Xu and Master Liang must not forget to visit us when the time comes, otherwise this old servant will not be able to explain to the master and madam!"

Xu Zhichun smiled and nodded: "Don't worry, definitely!"

Staying at someone else's house always feels restrictive; nothing beats home.

If Liang Mingxuan's performance is affected by not getting enough rest, that would be absolutely terrible.

They own a shop in the city, with a courtyard and several rooms behind it. There were originally two rooms, one large and one small. The large one was the master bedroom, and the small one was a guest room.

I went there in advance to tidy up, and settled in fairly comfortably.

After Xu Zhichun asked Liang Mingxuan and he had no objections, he asked Granny Qin Qing and Chunfen to prepare in advance. The day before the exam, Xu Zhichun, Liang Minglang, and Liang Mingxuan went to stay with him.

Liang Mingxuan finally found an opportunity to whisper something to his older brother.

"Big brother, how are you and your wife?"

The child tried hard to appear calm and composed, but his eyes were actually wide open with nervousness.

He was worried that his older brother was treating his sister-in-law badly.

Liang Minglang was unsure whether to laugh or get angry, so he lightly tapped the boy's forehead and said, "What are you thinking about all day long?"

What absurd idea!
"Big brother!"

The little boy tilted his head, trying to avoid his older brother's finger, his face serious as he gave him a disgruntled look. He felt he was all grown up now, and he didn't accept his older brother's way of teasing him like a child.

Besides, aren't we talking about serious matters now?
This is not something to joke about.

When Liang Minglang saw that he was anxious, he realized that he was concerned about his sister-in-law. He thought to himself that Zhichun hadn't spoiled him for nothing, and he was quite gratified that his younger brother had a conscience.

It would be impolite to tease such a kind-hearted younger brother any longer.

Liang Minglang smiled and said, "Don't worry, your sister-in-law and I have already been honest with each other, so everything is fine."

"Confess?"

"Yes, she already told me that she is not the original Xu family member."

"what"

Liang Mingxuan was somewhat stunned. No wonder his sister-in-law's skills were completely different from his sister-in-law's before.

"Big brother, you're not blaming your sister-in-law, are you?"

"Is your older brother such a muddle-headed person? This matter was caused by divine intervention and a series of unforeseen events. She had no choice in the matter, so how could I blame her?"

"That's good."

Liang Mingxuan breathed a sigh of relief, then quickly asked, "What about the original sister-in-law? Where did she go?"

Liang Minglang thought to himself that his brother was truly kind.

"I do not know either."

Liang Mingxuan's eyes dimmed, and he stopped asking.

She's probably gone, right? Otherwise, her sister-in-law wouldn't have woken up in her body now.

"Alright, stop thinking so much. You're just a kid, focus on your studies."

"Oh"

Liang Mingxuan was still feeling a bit down and sad.

After all, although the original sister-in-law wasn't as capable as the current one, she was still a very good person. Although she wasn't talkative and seemed quite serious, she did her best to treat herself well.

Liang Minglang gently patted his back and sighed, "Don't overthink it. Focus on your exam, okay?"

Liang Mingxuan nodded: "Yes. Don't worry, brother, I will definitely pass the imperial examination and become a scholar."

Liang Minglang: "Let me make this clear first, I'm not jinxing you, I'm just giving you some advance warning so you don't get too nervous. It would be great if you passed the exam, but it's okay if you don't. As long as you've tried your best, that's enough. Don't push yourself too hard at such a young age, okay?"

"understood!"

Liang Mingxuan laughed, "Big brother, did you learn that from your sister-in-law? She said the same thing to me before I took the imperial examination."

She said it more than once, repeating it over and over again, perhaps without even realizing it herself. She was even more nervous than him.

Liang Minglang laughed as well, "It was your sister-in-law who said it, but I think she makes a good point."

His brother likes to study, so let him study. It doesn't matter how well he does; he can protect him.

Liang Mingxuan suddenly felt a pang of unease. He glanced at his elder brother, hesitated, and stammered, "Brother, you...you and your ex-sister-in-law...you and your current sister-in-law...what...what exactly happened between you two?"

Liang Mingxuan was a little discouraged. His words were incoherent and he didn't seem to have made any sense. Instead, he blushed.

"Ok?"

Liang Minglang was confused, but as brothers, they had a basic understanding of each other, and he quickly understood.

What did his brother mean? It seemed like he was somewhat condemning him? Did he feel that he had married both his former sister-in-law and his current sister-in-law?
