Chapter 324: Bluffing
The second watch, ask for pink.
***………… ***
"Oh?" When Lian Man'er heard that Lian Jizu wanted money, she couldn't help but widen her eyes, "What money does he want to use?" ”
"I said that I wanted to buy some papers, and I had to go to the county seat, saying that there were some great Confucians, grandmasters, or something to come to teach, and to meet friends with literature." Lian Ye'er tried hard to recall what she heard, "Yesterday, my step-brother came back from the private school, and I told my grandfather together with my uncle. I heard it next to me, but I couldn't quite understand it. Anyway, the uncle and the step-grandfather both said that the volume is very important, and the money is spent, and the step-grandfather may be admitted next year, if the step-grandfather doesn't buy this paper, and doesn't go to the county seat to listen to lectures or something, others will go, and others will catch up with the step-grandfather. ”
"Uncle and step-grandfather said that at least a penny and save money, it will be enough to bluff Chapter 324."
Lian Man'er doesn't know much about the current imperial examinations. She only knows that even her step-grandfather's books over the years have not been read in vain, she has passed the county and government examinations, and she can directly participate in the college examination next year. If he passes the college examination, Lian Jizu will become the second talent of the Lian family after Lian Shouren.
Gorou, on the other hand, has never taken the exam and will take the prefectural exam first next year. Of course, if it goes well, the next step is the hospital exam, and then you can take the hospital exam with Lian Jizu.
However, this is what Lian Man'er thinks in her heart, she has been urging Gorou to study, but she doesn't want to put too much pressure on Gorou. Gorou is thirteen years old today, and if he can show talent at the age of fifteen or sixteen, in this era, it will be considered a very early start.
In fact, when Lian Jizu starts spring today, he can go to take the hospital exam. But he didn't go, saying that there had been too many things at home in the past year and that his studies had been affected. You have to study hard for a year and then take the exam next year.
Why do you think that Lian Jizu wants to buy papers and go to the county seat, very similar to when she bought mock papers before the exam and listened to the lectures of experienced teachers in the experimental middle school in her previous life?
"A penny!" Lian Man'er sighed, "Then this money." Did we give it to you? ”
A hanging of money, Chapter 324 is equivalent to one or two pieces of silver, which is not a small amount in the Zhuang family. With the current conditions of the Lian family, you have to make a good scrape together to barely make it out. Studying, taking the imperial examination. Sure enough, burning money is not affordable by ordinary dealers. And if the person who reads the book does not understand the hard work of the family and does not save, it will be even more difficult.
"Our master hasn't given it yet, it seems that the family can't make up the cash. After eating, our uncle is not the fourth uncle. And my father and they all called over, I was boiling water in the outhouse, and I heard our father and the fourth uncle discussing, it seems that there is still some money left, and I want the fourth uncle to talk to Huang Supervisor to intercede, and pay the second uncle, Brother Erlang, Brother Sanlang, and my father's salary in advance. ”
"And what did my dad say?" Lian Man'er hurriedly asked.
The fourth uncle agreed. said he would try it tomorrow with Supervisor Huang. Lian Ye'er said.
Lian Man'er tilted her head, there was such a thing, why didn't Lian Shouxin mention it to them when he came back.
Lian Man'er thought for a moment. He stood up and walked over to Goro.
"Brother, has Mr. Lu stopped? If not, go and ask...... "Lian Man'er told Gorou about Lian Jizu's spending money to buy rolls and go to the county seat to listen to lectures. "Brother, don't you have to take the exam next year, if it's really useful, let's not be left behind."
"It's about the advanced class? Why haven't I heard? Gorou said, "I'll go and ask Mr. Lu." ”
Gorou went out, and after about half a cup of tea, he walked back.
"Brother. How? Lian Man'er asked hurriedly.
"I asked my husband, and he said I don't need to rush. He gave me a topic every few days, I wrote an article, and my husband reviewed it, and I practiced the basic skills first. Gorou said to Lian Man'er. Of course, they didn't know that Mr. Lu still had something to say. Speaking of printing scrolls, isn't he better than those literati who print scrolls if he wants to write model essays with a pen? You must know that most of the people who printed the scrolls were literati who had tried and failed for a long time, and they had not heard of the people who were willing to descend to this profession.
"I just want to buy rolls, and I'm not in a hurry to buy them at this time." Gorou continued, "Brother Jizu is going to take the college exam, and I don't know who the examiner is yet. It's the rolls that come out now, most of them are old, and the new rolls won't come out until the beginning of next year, and if you want to buy them at that time, we'll buy them again. ”
Lian Man'er thought about it, and roughly understood. This should be equivalent to the college entrance examination, the trend is different every year, only when the examination period is approaching, there is a more reliable wind exposed, at that time, the question and the recitation of the model text are the most appropriate.
"What about the lectures?" Lian Man'er asked again.
"Mr. Lu said that he had never heard of such a thing." Gorou said.
"Cheating money and fooling people when classes start?" Lian Man'er was immediately alert. In her previous life, it was not for nothing that she cheated candidates of their money and time in the name of teaching by such and such an excellent teacher, or by such and such a pre-exam cram school.
"Mr. Lu said that he has never been to us, and there are no places like this in the places he knows." Gorou said, "Anyway, Mr. Lu said, read the books that should be read thoroughly, and the work of writing is done, this is the fundamental, so I don't have to be distracted to think about anything else." ”
"Uh-huh." Lian Man'er nodded again and again, she actually agreed with Mr. Lu's statement.
But even the step-ancestors now want to buy papers and go to lectures, and they can't say anything. After all, if someone doesn't get into the exam next year, who is responsible?
Even Man'er muttered here, and Zhang saw it.
"What are you talking about, muttering?" Zhang asked.
"Mother," Lian Man'er walked up to Zhang's again, lowered her voice and said, "Mother, did my father tell you about this?" ”
"And this? Why didn't your father say that when he came back? Zhang was surprised.
Seeing a gap, Zhang called Lian Shouxin into the back room and asked in a low voice.
"Ah...... "Lian Shouxin glanced out of the house.
Zhang closed the door.
“…… They are all working over there, let's be quiet, people outside can't hear it. Zhang's letter to Lian said.
Lian Shouxin sat on the edge of the kang.
"Dad mentioned it to me, and I agreed. I didn't tell you because I ...... I'm a little guilty of this. Lian Shouxin frowned slightly and said, "When Dad said this, the eldest brother and the second brother were all present, and I always felt that the second brother didn't seem to be very happy......
"When my step-ancestor went to school, the cost was not small. There are still almost ten months before the exam, and now it is ...... to start spending money like this, and ordinary people are afraid that they can't afford it, and they will ...... this year" Zhang let out a long sigh.
"Big brother's pavilion hasn't been said yet. Or maybe you can advance some money and get the money together. "Even keep the word.
So now I can only advance Lian Shouyi's wages, Lian Man'er listened and thought to himself.
"Daddy. Then tomorrow you ......"
"My grandfather has spoken, I'll talk to Lao Huang tomorrow." Even keep your word.
…………
On this day, even Man'er's family was busy late, so they finished the work. Lian Shouxin wants to see the shop, Wulang and Xiaoqi also live here, Zhang and Zhao, and take Lian Zhi'er, Lian Man'er and Lian Ye'er sisters back to the old house.
Even the family has long been rested. Several rooms were pitch black. They entered the courtyard, and as soon as they walked to the courtyard, they heard the cry of the He family coming from the east wing, and then the lights in the east wing were turned on.
"Erlang's daughter-in-law, Erlang's daughter-in-law, what's going on!" He Shi's loud voice was particularly loud in this silent night. "The child's father, Erlang, Erlang's daughter-in-law, this is not good. Hurry up, hurry up and invite Lang Zhong to Erlang's daughter-in-law! ”
Is something happened to Zhao Xiu'e?
Even Man'er and his party couldn't help but stop.
The door of the east wing creaked open, and Saburo hurried out of the room with his clothes and shoes on.
"San Lang, what's going on?" Zhang asked hurriedly.
"The second sister-in-law has a stomachache, I'll go to Li Langzhong." Saburo said as he walked towards the gate.
"Hurry up, run." Even Shouyi was dressed and walked out of the east wing, waving at Saburo's back. "This is a matter of human life, two lives."
With such a big movement, the lights were lit up in the upper and east rooms one after another.
"What's going on, three shifts in the middle of the night?" Zhou didn't come out, sat on the kang and asked loudly outside.
"Mother, father, wake you up?" Lian Shouyi walked to the window of the landlord's house. Rushed inside and said, "It's Erlang's daughter-in-law, when we came back, wasn't she good, she didn't eat at night, and her stomach hurt again in the middle of the night, and she fainted twice." That's scary. ”
As soon as Lian Shouyi's words fell, He's voice came from the east wing.
"Erlang's daughter-in-law, what's going on, how are you doing, squeak with me, don't scare me." I finally married a daughter-in-law, and now I am about to hold my grandson. Erlang's daughter-in-law, don't let anything happen to you. …… It's all to blame on me, I shouldn't have gone out in the morning, I left you alone at home, and let people bluff you, this is going to be a corpse and two lives, but it's going to kill me, this is a ...... of sin."
Bluffing, one corpse and two lives, listening to He's words, Lian Man'er couldn't help but move in her heart, and her eyes looked over to the west house of the upper room.
The figure in the west room has pupils, and it is obvious that even the Shouren family has woken up.
Even the old man walked out of the upper room with his clothes on, followed by Zhou and Lian Xiu'er, the mother and daughter both had calm faces, obviously very unhappy to be made up in the middle of the night.
"Let's take a look." Even the old man urged Zhou.
The Zhou family took Lian Xiu'er to the east wing, and soon, Lian Shouren and even step-ancestors also came out of the house, and the Gu family and the Jiang family also walked into the east wing.
Zhao Xiu'e, who had been silent, broke out with a scream, and then disappeared again.
"Step-grandfather daughter-in-law, it's okay, go out first. Erlang's daughter-in-law, she just scared you, look at our faces......" He howled.
Jiang came out of the east wing with a red face, lowered his head and quickly returned to the upper room.
Zhang and Zhao also entered the east wing, and then Li Langzhong was invited by San Lang. The west wing is small and there are many people, and even Man'er did not squeeze in.
It can't be said that she really can't squeeze in, it is a taboo for the Zhuang family, and the little girl's family has to avoid some occasions.
Zhao Xiu'e repeated it several times, until dawn the next day.
Even Moriyoshi, Jiro, and Saburo didn't go to work......
