Chapter 235: What I Desire Most

itely give you a satisfactory result."After he finished speaking, he got up and left.Zong Bai felt something was wrong. His brother's expression just now... what was that Like, like he wanted to kill...The oxcart had just left the mayor's backyard, not far from that pit.

Fang Jinshui of course wouldn't let Dean Qin go back to bury himself with his wife. But they were also eager to return, walking at night was dangerous after all, and besides, they had so many people with them.

So she came up with a compromise.

"So, even if you go back, you're only doing it for your wife's bones. Don't even mention how difficult it would be to find them in that pile of filth. Even if you did find them, there's no way to make them clean again."

"I do have a way to remove the filth from your wife's remains and quickly get her back to you."

His sister-in-law is right.

"It's burned."

"Burnt"

Fan Jinshu nodded, "Yes, fire can purify everything filthy. No matter what, it can be turned into ashes in the flames."

At that time, you take a handful of ashes and bring her home.

Upon hearing this, Dr. Qin was instantly excited.

That's a good idea. He's already grateful that people have helped him this far and won't ask for anything more.

Besides, he felt that Fang Jinshu was right. Even if they found the complete body, it would already be filthy and disgusting.

His wife was dignified and beautiful, restrained and pure her whole life. Perhaps purifying everything with fire would bring her a little comfort

"Alright, I'll do it your way."

Having said that,院長 Qin brushed aside his scholar's robe and was about to kneel down to Fang Jinshu, scaring her and Zong Bai into jumping out of the carriage together, just in time to stop him.

"That won't do, Dean Qin."

"I cannot accept your bow."

Although Qin Chongyan was only the headmaster of a small town's academy, he would be considered an old educator in modern times, having nurtured countless pillars throughout his life.

How could she, with all her flaws, be worthy of such a distinguished scholar's bow

"Since you're young, I'll respectfully call you by your given name."

Fan Jinshu nodded repeatedly.

"Jinxiu, this bow is not for anything else. You not only saved the lives of my daughter and me, but you were also willing to consider her in your decision. I thank you on her behalf."

"Thank you for thinking of this way to save her some face."

Fang Jinshu shook her head, "Dean Qin, these are just small gestures. Since you're so sincere, I won't keep anything from you."

"I saved you for my brother too."

"Our family still hopes that Zongbei can continue his scholarly pursuits, but now that the academy is gone, you are his only hope."

When Dean Qin heard this, a glimmer of surprise lit up his eyes. He had always thought that Zong Bo had given up on studying and taking the imperial examinations.

"You, you truly still wish to continue studying and take the imperial examinations"

Zong Bai nodded repeatedly, "Of course I'm willing, teacher. Before, I was forced by the difficult family situation. Now that I have my sister-in-law, life at home is much better."

"My older brother and sister-in-law both love me and are willing to let me continue my studies."

Dr. Qin repeatedly said "good" three times, and finally a trace of vitality appeared on his face.

You are a rare studious talent in our Heitu Town, you're even more gifted than your father was. It would be a real shame if you didn't go to school.

The news that Zong Bai was going to continue studying for the imperial examinations gave Qin Zhongyan a reason and direction to keep living. He immediately picked up his will to survive and said he would go along with whatever Fang Jinxiu arranged.

He was willing to go back with them and continue teaching Zong Bai how to read, as long as they didn't disdain him and his daughter.

"Fang Jinshi is overjoyed, 'How could you dislike it Our family would be thrilled to have him!'"

Unexpectedly, this trip solved all the most difficult problems their family had been facing.

If the town's academy closes, Fang Jinshu will really consider moving away, taking her mother-in-law and whole family to the county town or other places with academies.

It seems like it's not needed anymore.lways had a hunch that the other party was not easy to deal with, and now she realized she was terribly wrong. The other party was far from just difficult to deal with.She's been so busy with the mano...
