"Of course not." Lu Jingzhi said confidently, "When I went there and made my intentions clear, Gao Zhan immediately dragged his brother over and gave him a good beating, he cried out loud. I think such people are simple and honest."
"So you decided to give him a helping hand?"
That wasn't the case, of course.
Lu Jingzhi, after watching the two brothers scuffle, felt that she had fulfilled her mission for the day. She turned to leave and as she was about to step out of the doorway, she remembered the matter of the exams.
She casually asked him about it, and Gao Zhan responded with a bitter smile and shook his head.
He was not going to take the exam anymore.
His family's situation was not good.
His mother's health had been failing this year, and she was about to go blind from embroidery work. He was prepared to become a laborer and support his family.
As soon as he finished speaking, a broom whizzed out of the house and hit his leg, followed by his mother weeping and wailing.
