Xiao Hanzheng just looked at them quietly, as if he didn't care whether they believed him or not.

The old Xiao family was a little scared.

Mdm Wang couldn't help but look at her son and ask, "Have you been fooling around in those places recently?"

Eldest Grandson Xiao immediately shook his head. "No, I haven't been there."

"Then Hanzheng must have diagnosed your illness wrongly." Mdm Wang was relieved.

Her son had been spending a lot of time in the courtyard recently, and he had not gone out to wander around.

Shi Qingluo said, "Bring him out to consult another doctor, and you'll know if my husband has misdiagnosed him."

Her young husband's diagnosis suggested that Eldest Grandson Xiao's illness had already started to flare up, and a doctor from outside would definitely be able to sense it in his pulse.

Xiao Hanzheng nodded. "That's right, you guys can go outside and see a doctor outside first."

Eldest Grandson Xiao was scared upon hearing their advice.

He had really been feeling unwell for the past few days, and now he even felt that his body was itchy.

"Let's go out to see a doctor first."

If he was seeing a doctor for this kind of illness, it would of course be difficult for the women to follow.

Hence, Eldest Son Xiao and Third Son Xiao accompanied them.

The old lady and the others just sat at home to wait for updates.

Although the old lady was feeling a little unsettled because of her eldest grandson, she still could not help but ask, "What reward did you get for offering the seeds?"

Shi Qingluo replied truthfully, "I asked for a manor, and my husband asked for permission to look through the previous examination papers."

Old Lady Xiao widened her eyes. "That's it?"

Shi Qingluo raised her eyebrows. "What else?"

Old Lady Xiao felt that his grandson and granddaughter-in-law had lost their minds. "Are you guys stupid? After making such a great contribution, don't you want to be deployed as an official or get more gold, silver, and jewellery?"

Shi Qingluo glanced at her. "With my husband's ability, he will naturally become an official after becoming a scholar. Why do we have to ask for it?

"If you want gold, silver, and jewellery, you just have to spend more effort to earn them."

Then, she continued to say righteously, "Those corn seeds were specially prepared by my immortal master for the emperor. We didn't contribute much, so how can we just climb up the pole and randomly ask for these things?"

She looked down on him. "Letting people in Daliang to have a full meal is the most important. Why are you all eyeing on material goods like gold, silver, and jewellery?"

Her young husband said that the emperor had informants everywhere, so she was more cautious when she spoke in front of a crowd.

She could even criticise the old Xiao family's troublemakers.

Old Lady Xiao and the others were speechless.

They actually could not refute what she said.

They had just obtained a shabby manor, why should they be so concerned about it?


Old Lady Xiao was somewhat unwilling to give up and said, "Why don't you give this credit to my eldest grandson and let him directly become an official of the capital?"
