Chapter 017 Town 1

Luo Youli put the copper plate in his hand and set off to the town with a few children.

Luo Wensheng was the youngest, sitting on a cart and holding a basket. The cart was pushed by Luo Youli, supported by Luo Wenxuan, and Luo Ran followed by by him in a bouncing manner. Luo Youli and Luo Wenxuan said several times to let Luo Ran sit in the car, but Luo Ran insisted that he would sit again when he was tired.

A few people walked in a hurry, and Luo Ran kept chattering all the way, asking this and that like a curious baby. Luo Youli only thought that a child was curious about the things in the town, so he patiently answered them one by one. In fact, Luo Ran wanted to know more about it to see if there was a way to make money.

Most of the way has been walked, Luo Ran also has a general understanding of the situation in the town, and his legs are tired, and he begins to get on the board car. Helplessly, people have short calves and weak bodies, and they are very tired after walking a few miles, and they still want to save some energy to go shopping in the town.

"Brother Luo, Brother Luo......" On the country road, there are very few recognitions, and it is easy to distinguish the source of the sound. A middle-aged man was carrying a half-sack of things, followed by a teenage boy.

"It turned out to be Brother Zhao, Brother Zhao is also going to the town?" Luo Youli smiled when he saw the visitor, and immediately answered and asked. Apparently the two knew each other.

"yes, go to town and exchange this half bag of beans for silver." The middle-aged man's name is Zhao Ying, he is very bold in his thirties, he is from Zhao Wuzhuang near the town, and he often meets Luo Youli, but he is more familiar. Luo Youxiao's wife Zhao's maiden family is Zhao Wuzhuang's.

"These are Brother Luo's babies, they look so good. Come, Chengzi, call younger brothers and sisters. As he spoke, the middle-aged man pulled his son Zhao Cheng, who had been following him, over with one hand. The young man was rudely pulled over by his father, and he was very dissatisfied, and glanced at Luo Wenxuan, Luo Ran and Luo Wensheng who were sitting in the car, and did not say anything.

Zhao Ying saw that his son was so rude and didn't give himself face, so he planned to slap his son's head with a big palm, and remembered that his son said that the head of a scholar can't be patted, so his palm turned around, went down, and slapped his son's ass fiercely. "Why don't you listen to your father, call your brother and sister."

Zhao Cheng was slapped on the ass by his father in front of a stranger, especially in front of a few weak chicken-like babies, he felt very embarrassed. He glanced at Luo Ran and the others with resentment, but then thought that if he was disobedient, maybe his father would be able to do something that would make him even more faceless, so he simply screamed sullenly: "Brother and sister of the Luo family." ”

"This is the elder brother of the Zhao family, and you are called elder brother." Luo Youli saw Zhao Ying like this, and also asked his children to call him brother.

Of course, Luo Ran was very unhappy when he saw Zhao Cheng's reluctant look when he called his younger brothers and sisters just now, but out of politeness, they could only reply "brother" to each person. After Luo Wensheng returned, he secretly stuck out his tongue at Zhao Cheng when everyone was not paying attention. When Luo Ran saw it, he whispered to Wen Sheng: "Wen Sheng, do a good job." The voice was small enough to be heard by two adults who were having a good conversation, but it was enough for three children to hear.

"Stinky girl, you're looking for a beating." When Zhao Cheng heard the little girl's words, he clenched his fists and was very annoyed.

"You dare!" Luo Wensheng immediately stepped forward and said.

"Dad, Uncle Liu." Luo Ran whispered to the two of them, and then glanced at Zhao Cheng proudly.

"We'll see." Zhao Cheng knew his father's temperament, although he had learned a lot less lessons since going to school, but it was still very painful.

The two adults didn't pay attention and continued to speak.

"Brother Luo, your eldest nephew's literary name is amazing, he is really good at reading, and he is a child at a young age." Zhao Ying said with admiration and excitement, as if Luo Wenming was his son.

"I just got a child, and now I'm reading books, by the way, my sister-in-law has returned to her parents' house with her name in the past few days, haven't you seen it?" Luo Youli knew that his sister-in-law Zhao's maiden family was Zhao Wuzhuang's, so he asked.

"Why not, I heard that the literary name is going to be tested for Xiucai, and I took my second son to a trip to the ****** house of his eldest uncle." The middle-aged man paused, and then continued: "My two sons have a daughter, the eldest son is old and farming at home, and the second son was sent to school to study last year, and he is looking forward to reading it." At that time, I also heard that my aunt and grandmother in our village who married into your Luo family gave birth to a little scholar, so I decided to do so. The family is just saving money to make up for the children's tuition! No, I went to town to sell beans for money to buy pen and ink for my children. You say, why is the paper so thin and so expensive? It's still rotten when you poke it, but it's quite soft, much softer than straw paper. ”

"No, the things of the scholars are more expensive, and they are not used by our crops." Luo Youli echoed.

"Since your nephew's literary name is a child, he will definitely be able to be promoted in the show, and I heard that he can be an official after he is selected. Then you will be blessed with it. I also only hope that my second son, who is not successful, can have half of the literary name. ”

"I think Chengzi is pretty good, Brother Zhao is waiting to enjoy the blessings."

"Brother Luo, I see that your big baby is very good, yes, the spirituality of that scholar, at first glance, it is the material of a scholar, I don't know, but you didn't go to school." Zhao Ying saw Luo Wenxuan who was helping to push the cart and said.

When Luo Youli heard this, he looked at Zhao Cheng, who was one year older than his son, and then looked at his son, and suddenly had a thought, his son is ten years old, obedient, sensible, smart and clever since he was a child. As soon as this idea came out, he was taken aback by himself, he had never thought about it like this, reading was the proper noun of Luo Wenming in the big house, not to mention that now the family does not have any money, and it is very difficult to support Wenming alone, and my father and mother will definitely not agree. In fact, what Luo Youli thought of was very realistic, not that the Qin family said that he disagreed, but as long as Luo Youli put forward this idea, he would definitely be directly photographed by the old lady Qin. According to Qin's temperament, he must say even more ugly words. I guess even the sentence "Don't see if you have the life of the reader" can blurt out.

Luo Youli went back to the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, and said honestly, "Wenxuan hasn't gone to school yet, and the money in the family doesn't come together, so let's focus on Wenming first." ”

"Yes, life is difficult now, it is said that only three strong men can raise a scholar, and this is also the reason, when you look back and succeed in your studies, you will be able to get out of the family." Although Zhao Ying felt a pity, but the children in the village who couldn't go to school couldn't be counted, this is a reality, and it would be good to have a promising cousin to take care of it in the future.
