Xiao Hanzheng held Shi Qingluo's hand and walked from their home to the chief's.

On the way, they politely greeted everyone in the village.

It was also because after becoming an elementary scholar, his attitude towards everyone didn't change nor become more arrogant, so his reputation in the village was very good.

Everyone didn't feel that Xiao Hanzheng was very distant from them and enjoyed talking to him.

After the two of them walked away, the villagers gathered together and chatted.

"Not to mention, the relationship between Scholar Xiao and his wife is really good.

"His wife is obviously a capable woman. She woke him up with her chongxi as soon as she came to their house.

"She also brought their family members along to make tofu for a living. I also like such a blessed girl to come to my house."

"The key is that she can still stand up and isn't afraid of the old Xiao family bullying her. Scholar Xiao had to worry about Mdm Kong when he went to school and exams.

"After all, she's the disciple of the old immortal. How can she be controlled by the old Xiao family?

"Scholar Xiao is also lucky to be able to find such a wife. They look like a good match for each other."

The villagers had a good impression of Shi Qingluo.

Especially those who had made money selling tofu in the past few days.

They were all saying nice things about her.

Meanwhile, Xiao Hanzheng led Shi Qingluo into the chief's house.

The chief smiled and asked his wife to serve them tea.

Looking at Xiao Hanzheng's recovered body, he was extremely happy.

He asked with concern, "What are you going to do next?"

Xiao Hanzheng smiled and replied, "I want to continue my studies at the county school. I'll give it a try after a year."

The chief thought highly of Xiao Hanzheng, "I support that. When you are schooling, the other clan elders and I will look after your house."

Their clan had once sent out scholars and officials from the previous dynasty.

It was a pity that after the new dynasty's establishment, they only produced two tongsheng and a scholar like Xiao Hanzheng.

The two tongsheng didn't have anything fascinating, but Xiao Hanzheng's potential was limitless.

Xiao Hanzheng smiled and thanked him. "Thank you for your care, chief. If I can reach a high position in the future, I will remember everyone's help and repay the Xiao clan."

Compared to many villages, the Xiao clan in Xiaxi village was really very good.

If it was the chief from the neighboring village, He Lizheng, it would be good enough if he did not take the lead to exclude his family so as to not obstruct his father's plans, not to mention taking care of them.

The chief smiled, "It's good that you have the heart to do so."

He wouldn't pretend and say that Xiao Hanzheng did not need to support the Xiao clan when he reached a higher position in the future.

The reason why he took care of Xiao Hanzheng's family was not only because he liked this young man who was from the same clan, but also because of his potential.

It was very likely that he would lead the Xiao clan to greater heights in the future.

After sitting and chatting for a while, Xiao Hanzheng said, "Chief, we came here today to buy land."
