Chapter XXVI

"What? Shubai took the first place in the exam? ”

This news blew up everyone in the second room, even Zigui and Ziyang were no exception, their father went to the academy to pick them up after reading the list, and they didn't know about it yet.

The brothers looked at each other, and Daddy's forbearance was rising, and he didn't say it until this time, no wonder he waited so long in the town to return to the village in the dark, and his old face was swollen after failing to pass the sick nephew.

Wang's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law paid attention to the other side, Xiao Wang shouted: "Li Niang's bastard thing, it turned out to be coaxing me to play, just the day before yesterday, Mei Niang and I rubbed He Liansheng's car to go to the academy to send your grandfather to send a bundle, on the road I saw Li Niang sitting on Li Da ox cart, when she said to go into the city to sell embroidery, He Liansheng invited her to take a carriage and she didn't do it, I didn't expect that I secretly went to buy a good book!" ”

"Look at it, look at it, the bigger it is, the more unpleasant it is, and her dead ghost mother has the same virtue, wilted and wilted." Wang's words were said to Mo Lao Xiucai, Lao Xiucai snorted, his expression was very bad, this also hated the Shubai brothers and sisters, how can you not take care of your own family if you have good books.

Mei Niang also fanned the fire on the side, "Li Niang's temperament is getting more and more left, you don't know yet, today she beat Li Baoge He Lianyong and the two little babies on the street so badly, her buttocks were swollen, and everyone in the village saw it, and Aunt Wang was very angry." ”

"What kind of system, what kind of system!" Lao Xiucai blew his beard and glared, and ordered the Wang family, "You go over tomorrow, talk about them well, and don't lose the face of the old Mo family again." ”

"No need for my mother." Mo Wenrui put down the dishes and chopsticks, and put on his shoes neatly, "This little thing, I'm still going, I haven't seen those babies for more than half a year, it's weird, I'll talk to them now." ”

Whether it is true or imaginary, only Mo Wenrui himself knows, but his image is extremely tall at this time, except for the two sons who know his details, everyone else praises him.

Before going out, Mo Wenrui carried a pack of snacks he bought, the oiled paper packaging was good, in fact, it was a very ordinary sugar cake, not worth a few copper plates, that's it, Xiao Wang also muttered that he was too generous.

"Gentlemen do things, you don't interfere!" Mo Wenrui roared, Xiao Wang's slumped, and he secretly proudly carried a lantern and went to the end of the village.

When Mo Wenrui came to the door, the three Shubai brothers and sisters had just come back from the Jinshui River, and today Shubai went to Fuyuan Building, and was nagged by Uncle Cheng, saying that Fuyuan fish has been broken for two days, and there will be no fish for the festival tomorrow.

Li Niang was boiling water in the West Chamber, this room was half a big pot stove and half a bathroom, Qingyuan was sitting on a small bench waiting for a bath, his eyes were glazed.

Hearing the knock on the door, Shubai went to open the door, Li Niang took a look, and was very surprised to see the second uncle, no matter how disliked she was, she had to hug Qingyuan and come out to salute and say hello, but Mo Wenrui didn't even give the sister and brother a straight eye, and slowly blew out the lantern and inserted it by the door, and entered the main room with Shubai.

Li Niang wanted to know what the second uncle was doing here, and followed to the door of the main room, Shubai was pouring water for the second uncle, "Li Niang, Qingyuan is going to sleep, hurry up and wash him, second uncle, I greet." ”

"Then, second uncle, you will take care of it." Li Niang confessed and took Qingyuan to take a bath, because the door was open, she tried to prick up her ears, but she also listened to the conversation between the uncle and nephew.

Hey, it turns out that the second uncle came to Xingshi to ask about the crime, how do you say this, you didn't get into the top ten, and it's strange that people don't give you books to read? How can there be such a truth in the world.

Besides, the four books I bought were all solved in previous years, and you, a Xiucai who studies in the academy every day, will you still have no research in this area?

It's all excuses, this second uncle is like this, he is used to making excuses, it's someone else's fault if he doesn't do anything well, he himself has never been good.

Good guy, scolded my brother, and wanted to go to the county lord's banquet for him? But I really think about it, I'm afraid that's the real purpose of his coming here tonight.

Li Niang was angry while listening, this second uncle is not a thing, what my mother said is right, this kind of person has to stay away!

Mo Wenrui scolded his nephew, except for the happy mouth, he got nothing else, and he was still trembling with anger on the way home, why didn't the little rabbit cub eat oil and salt, and he had a virtue with the eldest brother......

Thinking of the dead eldest brother, Mo Wenrui twisted his neck uncomfortably, cleared his throat, stood in the middle of the road for a while, and waited until his mood calmed down before continuing to walk home.

Li Niang hugged the sleeping Qingyuan and sent it to her brother's kang, "Brother, it's right if you don't agree to him, a person who is not greedy enough, no matter how hard you dig into him, he won't remember your goodness." ”

"The banquet of the county master can't be changed casually, my brother knows all these things, you don't care about the little lady's family." Shubai handed the bag of dim sum on the table to Li Niang, "Take it and put it away, and it will take more than two taels of silver to exchange for these few pieces of dim sum, and I will give Qingyuan a sweet mouth, don't let the rats spoil it." ”

The brother and sister are clear in their hearts, saying that it is pension money, but in the end it is not in the hands of the second uncle, his father and son are all studying in the academy, and the bundle and miscellaneous expenses for a year will have to exceed twenty taels, and the income of twenty acres of land alone is very reluctant.

Thinking about it like this, Shubai immediately felt nervous, the silver rewarded by the county lord may not be guaranteed, the second uncle didn't ask today, it is estimated that he can't wipe this face, the Wang family is different, what should I do?

Shubai ran and knocked on Li Niang's door, "Li Niang, do you see if you can hide the silver on it?" I'm afraid my grandmother will come over tomorrow. ”

After thinking about it, Li Niang knew what her brother was worried about, "Okay, I'll take all the money in the house to it in a while, there is a room where it can be placed, it's safe." ”

Shubai nodded, "Either way, tomorrow you and Qingyuan will also go to the town together, just watch the dragon boat on the Fuyuan Tower, and we will come back together in the evening." ”

I really don't want my sister to face my grandmother alone, the old lady is really tough and doesn't explain.

Speaking of dragon boating, Li Niang's mind also moved, she hadn't seen it for many years, and the matter was decided.

This night, Li Niang picked up the water in the fairy field for most of the night, and after finishing it, she slept on the side of the stream for a while, and did not come out to help her brother raise the fish, she came out to cook until dawn, there was still chicken soup left last night, boiled and put some rice to cook into porridge, Qingyuan Huhu ate a big bowl, and the rest of the book was divided with Li Niang.

Eat and drink enough, feed the chickens, lock the door, the three brothers and sisters are dressed in new clothes, carrying a load of fish to the village entrance under the big locust tree, just in time to catch the second ox cart, because the guests of Li Da Niu's family have not left, today is the village chief's eldest son Li Deguang, the business of carrying passengers has always been their family is round, no one dares to rob them, otherwise just wait to wear small shoes.
