Chapter 593: Chapter 593: Quite Capable

How could he make decisions for Liu Yushui? Even if Liu Yushui has married him, she would still have to work at his house. Would his mother allow him to marry someone who does nothing but acts like an ancestor?

"However, Yushui, you should learn to deal with the house chores a bit, otherwise, how can you follow me and be unable to do anything? It’s not a big deal here, I can buy you some maids to serve you, but my mother... You know."

"This..."

Upon mentioning Zhou Liang’s mother, Liu Yushui’s face darkened. She softly pounded Zhou Liang’s chest.

"I understand, I will learn."

She was all in to marry Zhou Liang. Learning household chores was not a hard task. With maids around, she just needed to pretend to be busy in front of Zhou Liang’s mother.

Who can’t pretend?

"Brother Liang, I’ve forgotten what I was going to say because of your interruption."

"What is it?" Zhou Liang asked.

It must be about Lin Changfeng. Liu Yushui kept nagging him about Lin Changfeng to the point his ears were callused from it.

He didn’t understand, what was so great about Lin Changfeng? He wasn’t as popular or valued by the teachers as he was. What could he possibly achieve now that he had left the academy?

"It’s about Lin Changfeng," Liu Yushui brought it up again.

"I thought it was something important. It’s just Lin Changfeng, why do you bother to mention him everyday?" Zhou Liang mocked dismissively, showing no concern.

"Don’t worry, even if we give him three more years to study, he won’t pass the imperial exam. Can he compete with me? I have a whole room full of books at my home. What does his family have? Does he have any books to read?"

Liu Yushui: "..."

Lin Changfeng’s family was poor, but he always borrowed books from his classmates. She had run into him doing so several times.

She had mentioned this to Zhou Liang before, how could he have forgotten?

"Brother Liang, don’t underestimate Lin Changfeng. He is very capable. Also, Lin Caisang, who knows what kind of luck she has to own so much land on Manghuang Mountain and turn it into what it is now. The Lin Family is full of mysteries."

She tried to persuade Zhou Liang. Although she admired Zhou Liang, it didn’t mean that Zhou Liang must be talented.

In her heart, she knew if Elder Mr. Zhou was not present, who would regard Zhou Liang in Qianlin County or the academy? The teachers would definitely not give him preferential treatment.

Whether Zhou Liang could pass the imperial examination this time, she dared not boast. She could only pray that Zhou Liang would pass the test.

Actually, she felt quite conflicted, just like her mother said. If Zhou Liang failed this time, he would undoubtedly be frustrated. The status of the Zhou family would decline in the county.

At this time, if her mother went to make a fuss at the Zhou family’s house, even if they didn’t want Zhou Liang to marry her, they might have no choice.

That’s why she had been trying her best to get Zhou Liang to visit her in Ya Village every day.

However, she didn’t want to marry Zhou Liang in such a way. Firstly, if Zhou Liang couldn’t pass the examination, his future would remain uncertain. Even if he could take it again after three years, a new group of candidates would be coming up. Would Zhou Liang still be able to pass?
