Before the fourth wife's words came out, the voices of Mama Huang and Yingyue came from the door, "Sixth master, eighth master, you are here, the old lady is waiting for you to have breakfast." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info"

Yingyue took the lead in opening the curtain, and the two brothers entered the banquet one after the other, and greeted each other, "The son has seen his father and mother." ”

When they heard the news, the husband and wife sat separately, and the fourth wife pulled her younger son, "Brother Xiu'er can still stand it, did you recite Mr. 's book this morning?"

Zhen Xiujie straightened his thin chest, "Mother can rest assured, her son is not afraid of hardships and can stand it, the sixth brother is going to take the Xiucai exam this year, I can't be weak as a younger brother." ”

The fourth master said proudly with his youngest son's childish words: "Kao Xiucai is not just a matter of talking, you can see how hard your brother reads, don't worry about talking big." ”

Zhen Xiujie pouted, leaned coquettishly to his mother, and muttered: "How can my son talk big, my son is also very hard-working." ”

The fourth wife hugged her little son, looking at the childish little face that was exactly the same as her daughter, full of anger, and her eyes turned red.

Zhen Mingjie was busy on the side and said worriedly: "Mother, how is my sister's condition?

The fourth lady hurriedly pressed the corner of her eye, smiled and nodded, "It's awake, and the doctor has also come." ”

Zhen Mingjie looked like a little adult, and said very sensibly: "What did the doctor say?"

"It's no big deal to wake up, but I still have to recuperate for two or three months, and I don't know if your sister can sit still. ”

Zhen Xiujie blinked his eyes and volunteered: "Mother, my son comes to accompany my sister after school every day, and when the time comes, my son will teach my sister to read and write, and she will definitely be able to sit still." ”

The fourth old man quipped: "Brother Xiu'er, don't you like your sister sticking to you, why are you willing to come to accompany your sister?"

Zhen Xiujie scratched his head embarrassedly, raised his eyes to look at his brother, and laughed stupidly.

Zhen Mingjie said embarrassedly on the side: "My sister also has the responsibility of a son when she falls like this, if she takes her sister more on weekdays, her sister will not just think about playing with the sister of the second uncle's family, it is the son who has not fulfilled his responsibility as an elder brother." ”

When the fourth wife heard this, even her heart and liver hurt, and she hurriedly said: "Brother Ming, how can I blame you, it is your mother's responsibility to raise you, and men and women are not allowed to sit at the same table at the age of seven, and you have to study wholeheartedly, how can you take care of the affairs of this backyard, it is the mother's fault that Wan'er was injured like this this time, don't mess up, if you don't give me a show before you come back, I will ask your father to beat you hard." ”

Before Zhen Mingjie could speak, the younger brother immediately reported his grievances, "Mother, my brother will definitely be admitted to Xiucai, and he will definitely be better than his father when the time comes, and he can also give you a person to take the Jinshi exam and come back, just like my grandfather, I will be admitted to the capital, so that I can take my mother to the capital and reunite with my grandfather, grandmother and uncle." ”

When the fourth wife heard this, she hurriedly turned her head, and her tears slipped in the direction that her sons couldn't see, and a trace of pity flashed in the eyes of the fourth master, and he secretly blamed himself, and privately became better and better for his wife.

The family guarded Zhen Wanyi, who had been asleep after drinking the medicine, quietly and peacefully had breakfast, and sent away the two brothers who wanted to continue going to school.

"Last night's snow, today this plum blossom is only afraid to bloom more beautifully, madam, why don't you go to the garden for your husband to walk with you, these two days are tired. ”

The fourth wife was also a little moved when she heard this, but when she thought of her daughter lying on the bed, she was completely interested, "Husband, the slave family has something to discuss with you, this plum blossom is better to be saved for later, anyway, this plum blossom is there every year, and we only have this one daughter." ”

The fourth old man sighed, took his wife's hand, and entered the main room together, letting Mama Huang guard at the door, "Qinglian, if you have any ideas, just say it, I will definitely do my best for my daughter and husband." ”

The fourth wife personally refilled the new tea and sent it to the fourth master, "It's not a difficult thing, it's just that Wan'er is seven years old this year, you see that Brother Xiu'er has started to go to school, and Wan'er is still playing around at home alone, not learning anything." In the past, when I was in the capital, Sister Yuan'er, second sister, and third sister invited a female gentleman to teach calligraphy at home, and also invited an embroiderer. Now although our family is no longer an official in Beijing, but this value can't be dropped, you see the fourth sister in the second room, they are almost over, but they can't even read all the Buddhist scriptures, and they can't get the embroidery pieces that look good, how do you say such a daughter is easy to find someone?

If the second room can not be compared, then let's talk about the sixth sister of the third room, the third room as soon as the capital immediately to the sixth sister to invite Mr., now in the hometown of the granddaughter is only our family Wan'er, you also know the mother's attitude towards the second room, the second room of the sister is more, the mother can not take the initiative to invite Mr., do you want to let the mushroom sister in the room and Wan'er be the same waste, the second room is a concubine, you are a sister-in-law, even if the mushroom sister is a concubine, but the mushroom sister is loyal and obedient, in the past few years, she has been following Xuemei in the school girl red, but Xuemei's craftsmanship can only be said to be average, and her own name is not fully written, how to teach Sister Mushroom well, I have a lot of things here, I have no time to take care of myself, and I can't take care of my two daughters at all. ”

As he spoke, his voice choked again, "Speaking of which, my body is not angry, if I have a good child, I will raise my two daughters in the room, and I will not teach them by hand, so that I can't even know a few words until now." I think when I was in my mother's house, I started to hold a needle at the age of five, and I started to hold a pen at the age of six. Finally, he took a handkerchief and covered his mouth and cried.

The fourth old man frowned, obviously he didn't expect his wife to have such a problem, although he is not in charge of the family, but he also estimates that the situation at home is about the same, since the old man returned to his hometown, he will not produce, and all the chores will be handed over to the eldest brother to take care of, but the eldest brother is not a good manager, and there is a bit of servility for money, it is very difficult to maintain the ancestral business, if it is not for the fact that there is no rich money in the public, the mother will not force the second brother to divide it.

Therefore, in addition to the ancestral property, there is really not much cash that can be used in the family to chew on the huge Zhen family, which is why the mother never mentions the female husband, that is, the boys also go to school in the clan studies, otherwise Brother Ming's intelligence is afraid that he would have taken Xiucai in his hands earlier.

Thinking of Brother Ming, and then thinking of Brother Xiu'er, who also has a wisdom root, do you still have to waste a few years in the hands of the old Xiucai in that ethnic school? There is also Sister Wan'er, Sister Mushroom, do you want to grow up to be like a few girls in the second brother's family?

Thinking of this, the fourth old man shuddered, no, no, he can't study, and it is a regret in his life that he didn't pass the exam three times, how can he let his son have the ability but waste money for money?
