102 Blessing from the Past Life
“Ah Tao.” Zhao Lanhua suddenly stopped in her tracks and looked into her eyes. She smiled gently and said, “As long as it’s something you want to do, just do it! Besides, your culinary skills are so good. You can’t just bury yourself in the Shen family’s kitchen.”
“Mother, actually, I want to earn more money for Ji Chen and Shen Yao,” Ji Zhao explained frankly. “Chenchen is already six years old this year. I want to send him to school. Just tuition alone is a big sum of money, so I want to earn more money. Also, Shen Yao has injured his leg, so he doesn’t have the mood to study for the imperial examination anymore. But I don’t want his life to be wasted.”
Although Ji Zhao knew the plot of the original novel and knew that Shen Yao would definitely make a name for himself in the future,
however, she still hoped that Shen Yao could work hard earlier!

“Ah Tao, I understand what you’re thinking, but… but Sanlang’s leg won’t recover.” Zhao Lanhua sighed regretfully. “Back then, after Third Brother injured his leg, it wasn’t that our family didn’t think of a way. In order to treat Third Brother’s leg, your eledst sister-in-law and second sister-in-law even sold their dowry jewelry. Unfortunately, the money seemed to have fallen into a bottomless pit. Not only did we not hear a single sound, but Sanlang’s leg wasn’t treated either.”
At first, it was Shen Yao who gave up, but later on, the entire family gave up.
Fortunately, Shen Yao did not disappoint. He spent two months to pull himself out of his painful memories. Then, he used his talents to write letters for others. He even went to the bookstore to copy some expensive calligraphy.
Shen Yao’s handwriting was neat and his paintings were beautiful.
Everyone knew that.
Other than copying the calligraphy, Shen Yao’s painting skills were also very exquisite. That was why he became famous after becoming the Grand Secretary.
“But Ah Tao, it’s really Sanlang’s blessing for you to think for Sanlang like this.” Zhao Lanhua sighed from the bottom of her heart. “It’s Sanlang’s blessing from his previous life to be able to marry you!”
“Mother…” Ji Zhao looked away shyly. “I’m not as good as you say. I just… I just want to do something for him.
“Good girl, I know you’re the best.” Zhao Lanhua quickly held her hand and said emotionally.
After returning to the Shen family’s courtyard in Shanghe Village, Ji Zhao invited Shen Yao to take a walk at the back of the mountain.
The evening breeze caressed the willows, and the air was filled with the fragrance of gardenias.
Ji Zhao thought for a moment and told him her plan.
“You mean, you want to earn money to support Ji Chen and me in our studies?” Shen Yao found it unbelievable.
“Of course!” Ji Zhao immediately nodded like a chick pecking at rice. “You and Chenchen, one is my husband, and the other is my younger brother! Besides, smart and indomitable men like you can’t be found everywhere!”
Ji Zhao’s colorful compliments were extremely effective!
“Ah Tao, I appreciate your kindness.” Shen Yao smiled and shook his head. “It’s just that I’m not qualified to participate in the imperial examination.”
“Shen Yao, let me tell you a story?” Ji Zhao did not respond to his sad words. Instead, he asked seriously, “Do you believe that there are brave warriors in this world? No matter what happens, they will accept it calmly and face it bravely?”
“I don’t know.” Shen Yao smiled calmly.
“A true warrior who dares to face the fear in his heart will never put himself in a fixed trap.” Ji Zhao raised her head slightly and smiled gratefully. “Shen Yao, there’s a very powerful person. His name is Hawking.”
