Chapter Seventy-Nine: Sophistry

Speaking of this, Han Yongsong also complained in his heart, if it weren't for the second child's ignorance, things wouldn't have been like this at all.

Of course, these words must not be said now, at least not explicitly.

So he wiped his eyes and pretended to cry, "The child is thinking, if he can do it well, he won't let his father and mother follow him, and he has always been able to afford it, but it will cost dozens of taels to take the exam." ”

Grandma Xiucai, who had never dared to snort for fear of provoking Han Xiucai's anger, screamed in fright, "What, ask for so much silver?" ”

Han Yongsong hummed and nodded, "This is still the only way for someone to move, if no one helps, let alone a few dozen taels, even a few hundred taels may not be able to do it." ”

Han Xiucai heard the meaning of the words, "You mean you found someone who can help with the activity?" ”

Han Yongsong nodded again, "Dad, the Fumanlou where I am now the account is the Luo family, and the Luo family is very powerful in this area, and you also know how powerful the Luo family is, but unfortunately the son is only an account now and can't talk to the main family, but our shopkeeper can often see the people of the main family, and the Mrs. Zeng just now is our shopkeeper's cousin, the relationship between the two is good, as long as the son can really help her make do with this family business to save her son, Mrs. Zeng promised to help the good life activities, and ensure that Qi'er's exam is foolproof." ”

finally figured out the relationship between the vine and the melon, but thinking about the words of the second daughter's daughter scolding herself just now, after the eldest girl's matter came out, the villagers pointed fingers at him, and Han Xiucai still couldn't let go.

"Her son is not cured at all, the eldest girl married and said that she was happy, but in fact, she was going to be widowed, even if there were few families in the flat-headed family, not to mention that we were a scholarly family, if this is the case, even if Qi'er is really admitted in the future, as soon as people find out about it, this reputation is not good."

Knowing that his father has the best face, Han Yongsong hurriedly explained. "Dad, that's the news that the second child can inquire about randomly, I have seen the son of the Zeng family, and he is very sick. But it's not to the point that it can't be cured, in fact, he said that the disease is not a disease, but that his life is light and collides with something. ”

Speaking of the back, he deliberately lowered his voice to create a gloomy atmosphere. Han Xiucai is also a farmer after all, he still believes in the words of the ghosts and gods, not to mention Xiucai's grandmother, although Han Yongsong did not say what happened to the son of the Zeng family, they can also figure it out by themselves, and they are even more shocked by his words.

Both of them unconsciously leaned in the direction of Han Yongsong, and also lowered their voices and asked, "You mean, he hit the evil spirit?" ”

Han Yongsong pretended to nod mysteriously.

Grandma Xiucai was a little curious, "How do you know?" ”

"Mother. Didn't I just say it, my shopkeeper and Mrs. Zeng are cousins, and the nephew has such a thing, and his cousin's heart is also annoyed that he got drunk and accidentally sued me, saying that the Zeng family secretly invited someone to take a look, and must find a woman with a heavier life to rush to rejoice, and in the future, with this woman pressing, the young master of the Zeng family will not be easy to have another accident. As soon as the son is summed up, isn't the eldest girl of the second family born on the Double Ninth Festival, just the situation in the second family. The eldest girl is also suffering from staying at home, it is better to marry into the Zeng family, anyway, the young master of the Zeng family must rely on her to suppress her life, and it will definitely not treat her badly. With her there, the young master of the Zeng family can't die, she is married, and the second family has one less person to eat and save the dowry to Dazhu Erzhu to ask for a daughter-in-law, isn't this the best of both worlds. ”

Grandma Xiucai nodded again and again when she heard this, and even Han Xiucai, who was very resistant before, relaxed.

Han Yongsong took the opportunity to wipe his eyes. put on an aggrieved expression, "But the second brother didn't believe me, the eldest brother, and ran to the town to inquire, would the children be willing to spread the word if they hit the evil spirit, the people outside don't know the situation, they must have said anything, and the second child still believes it, and when he comes back, he doesn't ask clearly, and he makes a fool of himself, not only let me who is kind enough to help him let the family point fingers, but even the mother who thinks about him has also given him a bad reputation." ”

Speaking of this Xiucai's grandmother, she was also angry, "This second child has changed since he married that sick seedling, what a sin." ”

Han Xiucai also snorted a little annoyed, "Don't mention this son, he will no longer be from my family in the future, boss, since people don't appreciate it, forget it, save a bad situation and burden Qi'er." ”

In Han Xiucai's heart, in the end, it is still the grandson's fame, which is the most important.

When Han Yongsong heard this, he was anxious, this matter can't be counted, now the Zeng family is chasing him to ask for a bride to chongxi, the eldest girl is not going, is it difficult to let his daughter go.

"Dad, Qi'er has been implicated."

Han Xiucai was taken aback, "What's the problem?" ”

Han Yongsong pretended to have an annoyed expression, "It's also that I'm anxious, and I can't see the shopkeeper who takes care of me from time to time to borrow wine to kill my sorrows, and I quickly talked to him about the big girl, but the Zeng family is really suitable, so I have always been given money to let me come back to say kiss, who wants the second child to refuse, and made a fuss, there are not many people who know about the Zeng family, and people can also find another girl with the right fate, but let the second child make such a fuss, everyone mistakenly thinks that the son of the Zeng family really can't live, who dares to marry his daughter, The person who could have been saved turned out to make the second child so troubled that now it looks like he is not saved, do you think the Zeng family can agree? Their family has such a son, if it is really gone, do you think people will be willing to let us go? ”

Seeing that Han Xiucai and the two of them were fascinated, he said again, "Mrs. Zeng is our shopkeeper's cousin, if you really think that I killed his cousin's only son, can he spare me?" If I lose my life, forget it, it's a big deal to go home and farm, but when I pray for Xiucai, I want Xiangkun to be a guarantee, and our shopkeeper wants to really remember this hatred, and say in front of the master's family, Dad, do you say that the Luo family is still willing to do this? Who in these ten miles and eight townships has nothing to do with the Luo family, and the Luo family refuses to protect the people, will they be willing to protect it? Without Xiangkun as a guarantee, how can Qi'er take the Xiucai test, let alone take the exam, take the Jinshi exam, and see the holy face. ”

Han Xiucai himself has also taken the imperial examination, and the rules are naturally clear, this problem is really very strict, this is going to directly cut off the future of his parents and grandchildren.

Grandma Xiucai was even more anxious and shouted, "What can I do?" Their son died, how can we blame our family? ”

Han Yongsong said dejectedly, "Because the words of the Zeng family's son who were not saved were spread by the second family, it is indeed our family who harmed people like this." ”

"But he's in the second room now, not from our third room." (To be continued.) )
