Chapter 946: If You Can't Resist, Learn to Enjoy!

nd outside the Xindu area, a potato craze was sparked, and Xianke Lai once again became wildly popular!The villagers brought the potatoes to the city. In the afternoon, when the women had nothing to d...The villagers, all familiar with each other, gathered together to chat and laugh.

The children were mischievous, weaving in and out of the crowd, nearly bumping into their mother who was carrying the dishes. Their mother pulled their ears and gave them a good spanking on their bottoms. 。The child scratched their red bottom, laughing with a toothy grin, then went back to being mischievous. 。The elderly were helped to sit down early, sipping tea and nodding with smiles. 。Everyone in the whole village, men, women and children alike, were truly happy for the Li family and rejoiced at their child's success. 。In their hearts, the village was one, all sharing in the collective glory. 。The Third Princess was amazed and intrigued by what she saw. 。This was a feeling she had never experienced before. 。

To such an extent that when Jia Yin came to look for her for a meal, she was still sitting under the big tree at the entrance of the village, lost in thought

Caicloud hovered anxiously under the tree, spinning around in worry, afraid that her master would fall. She futilely stretched out her arms. 。 Just like waiting to catch her master! Jia Yin laughed, and stepped forward to greet her, “Song Zhi, it's time for dinner! Why are you daydreaming here If you delay any longer, all the meat balls will be gone!” The third princess’s given name was Song Zhi, but Jia Yin mostly called her Princess 。At this time, there were also quite a few villagers from the outer villages nearby. She was afraid of exposing the identity of Princess San, so she called herself by this name. 。Indeed, the Third Princess looked down at her and patted the tree trunk beside her. 。Jiayin embraced the tree trunk and climbed up in three or two moves, very nimbly. 。Princess Three blinked her eyes twice and finally broke into a smile, “I learned to climb trees when I was little to escape nagging from the Nanny. But you’re really good at climbing trees too”Jia Yin shrugged helplessly, “There’s only one maid in my family, the rest are boys” 。I have always played with my older brothers, but they are mischievous and often leave me behind. 。"For example, this tree, I've been dropped on the trunk at least a dozen times, it was always my father and my stepfather who pulled me down." 。Over time, for self-preservation, I had no choice but to learn how to defend myself. 。The third princess subconsciously imagined a scene, with a group of mischievous boys running ahead and a pitiful chubby girl riding on the big tree behind them. 。She couldn't help but burst into laughter and exclaimed, "You actually have moments like this I thought you, my little treasure, would always be held in the palm of your brothers' hands. Who knew there were times when even you get thrown under a tree branch" 。"

Jia Yin rolled her eyes and nudged San Gongzhu with her elbow, protesting, "Hey, sister, your gloating is too obvious. Shouldn't we tone it down a bit!"

San Gongzhu laughed even harder, reaching out to hug Jia Yin's neck and mimicking her tone, "Sister, don't be ungrateful. I'm just feeling sorry for you, poor thing!"

"

Jia Yin took the opportunity to scratch her itchy spine, the third princess almost fell off the tree from the intense itch, and of course, Cai Yun was so scared that her heart nearly jumped out of her throat.

" 。Princess Three waved her hand, shooing Cai Yun away. She leaned against Jia Yin and said, “I truly envy you. Growing up here since you were little…” 。It's so lively here, full of warmth and human touch. 。Unlike me... In this cold palace, it's hard to even see my parents. 。"Jia Yin had never allowed her to be so self-pitying. As usual, she patted her on the back and scolded, “Don't give me that pitiful look! You're just looking at how well we're doing now, feeling lively and prosperous, which is why you're envious…" 。But you have no idea, when we first moved here, it was all gravel pits and barren hills, there wasn't even a place to dig for wild vegetables. 。"Our whole village tightened our belts, eating one meal a day, enduring hunger and hardship, using picks and shovels to till this patch of land." 。"The uncles and elders in our village are as thin as paper, they could be blown away by the wind." 。The third princess was surprised and listened with her mouth agape. 。

“That...ah, I thought this place was a geomantic treasure…”

Jia Yin sighed, “Geomantic treasures are created by our hard work, not born! You only see our good days and don't know how much effort we put in.”

Although you live in the palace and haven't experienced as much parental love, you are well-provided for, which is happier than most children in the world. 。Find a place of poverty, where many people still struggle to get enough food and clothing. 。A person should not be greedy and cannot expect everything to be perfect, otherwise one will always be unsatisfied and there will be no happy days. 。The Third Princess fell silent, leaning against Jia Yin without speaking. 。Jia Yin didn't say another word. The Third Princess was intelligent, but sometimes she could be stubborn and willful. 。At crucial moments, just give her a few pointers, and she'll naturally figure things out. 。As expected, after a while, the third princess said, “Father has recently been intending to find me a husband. Although he says he will let me choose and try to pick someone I like" 。But I know, whether or not I like it doesn't matter. The consort my father has chosen for me will surely help stabilize the government. 。"I was angry at first, but now I suddenly understand." 。As a princess, the fine clothes and rich food she enjoys are all provided by the common people. 。Now, it's time for me to take responsibility. 。Just like you said, it's impossible for all good things to just come to me without any effort. It's not about just taking and not giving back. 。Jiayin didn't know that the Third Princess had such worries. During this period, she was concerned about her brothers' exams and often went out of the palace. She wasn't as attentive to the Third Princess. 。She wanted to persuade him, but she was at a loss for words. 。For a given fact, since resistance is futile, one can only learn to accept it. 。It's a lucky thing that the Third Princess doesn't get stuck on trifles. 。Because between his daughter and a stable government, the Emperor would undoubtedly choose the latter. 。Otherwise, how would there be the saying, "The imperial family is the most ruthless..."After finishing the water banquet, Jia Yin and the Third Princess returned to the palace. 。Jiārén, having brought the gifts, no longer stayed up late to study. He remained in Suijin Tan, dealing with some household matters, taking walks around the village and outside, and even went to the hot spring valley for a soak, completely emptying his mind. 。On the eve of the palace exam, the two brothers returned to the city. The next day, before dawn broke, they hurried to the palace gates and joined the queue. 。Over a hundred students, lined up in order of their rankings, stood in neat rows. As the sky began to glow with pale light, they stepped across the threshold of the palace gates. 。The palace examination is an imperial exam overseen by the emperor himself, marking the culmination of the imperial examinations. 。For this day, students have endured countless sweltering summers and biting winters, shedding countless strands of hair. 。

Some people walked while trembling with excitement, their limbs stumbling, causing the leading eunuch to lower his head and steal a smile.

Of course, there are also those who walk with composure and calmness, steady and well-behaved, like Jiaren 。When the people of Xin Cun first arrived at Suijin Beach, he followed his family into the palace to present tribute to the Emperor. 。Even the Emperor went to Suijin Beach and ate noodles cooked by his mother-in-law with his own hands. 。Now she is just my own little sister, still staying in the palace. 。There is truly no one with more confidence than him. 。Soon, the students were led to a spacious great hall. 。The main hall was filled with over a hundred small tables and embroidered cushions. Each table had all the necessary writing implements: brushes, ink, paper, and inkstones. 。The Emperor, accompanied by six ministers and other important officials, personally attended the exam. 。The students knelt down, shouting "Long live!", their hearts filled with tension that had reached its peak. 。The emperor's gaze swept over the students below, nodding in satisfaction. 。It has to be said, the Jiǔrì Móguī Examination at Gōngyuàn weeded out the elderly, the weak, and those lacking in resolve. 。All the students who can appear here are the most outstanding, each full of energy and vigor. 。He couldn't help but glance at the corner leading to the back hall. There stood a screen, embroidered with flowers in full bloom, vibrant and dazzling...g are considered half-son and daughter-in-law of the Li family.
