Hong Quan smiled and said, "Since it's what the godfather means, let's accept it." ”

He looked sideways at Feng Shuo: "Pick up the jade inventory of the entire county of Runing Mansion together, 30,000 pieces is probably enough." You have made a lot of money over the years, people can't be too greedy, greedy people, the end will not be too good, what we said is right? ”

Feng Shuo saw his sweat dripping from his eyebrows to his sleeves, and he smiled reluctantly: "Gonggong Hong said that he was joking, the villain is a cheap businessman, and the money he earns is silver, and he is not a passing god of wealth for a few adults." He paused, rolled his eyes, and said with a smile: "Tomorrow, tomorrow, the villain will set up a table of wine in Luoxia Tower, call a few popular beauties, and wash the dust for Grandpa Hong." ”

Hong Quan waved his hand and said: "Our family has always disliked women in the dust, and the smell of fat powder is uncomfortable. ”

This is like a woman from a good family?

The words were so clear, how could Feng Shuoyi not understand, the beauty who suddenly flashed in front of him was called Ning Niang, right?

Because it is necessary to concentrate on the inventory of jade during the New Year, those who are not slaves are put back in their hometowns, and it is too late to call them at this time. He replied with a smile: "The villain knows a beauty, this woman is from a farmer's family, her background is clean, and her appearance..."

He twisted his fat body and said with a flattering smile: "Tall and gentle, only fourteen years old, a pair of peach blossom eyes are unforgettable at first sight." If Gonggong Hong likes it, after the New Year, the villain will send this beauty to the house outside your palace. ”

He wants to have a way to live!

See Hong Quan once in private to prove that he is still useful!

Even if he doesn't have a jade business, he's still useful!

Hong Quan smiled, his thin lips opened and closed, and said, "Then our family will wait for good news." ”

Feng Shuo secretly breathed a sigh of relief, bowed to the three of them with a smile, and said, "The villain will go to contact the jade shops in the counties of Runing Mansion, hurry up and prepare the goods, and strive to send the goods to Guangzhou Mansion as soon as possible, so as not to delay the three adults." ”

Hong Quan nodded with satisfaction, waved his hand and said, "Go back." ”

"Yes." Feng Shuo felt that he was drenched in sweat, he walked out of the door, his legs trembled, and walked out from the back door of the county office holding on to the wall.

Cao Zongming saw Feng Shuoyi go out, retracted his gaze, and smiled: "Gonggong Hong, county honor, this Feng Shuoyi..."

Lu Yuan said: "Do you need to say it?" ”

Hong Quandao: "The father-in-law trusts the two of them, but since ancient times, businessmen have been profitable, and they can't be trusted. When the goods are sent, what should be done is done, and the troubles that should be closed are dealt with. ”

"Yes." Cao Zongming breathed a long sigh of relief, and the sound of firecrackers suddenly sounded outside, and the laughter of several children floated into the courtyard.

It's the New Year, and after the New Year, you don't have to worry about it anymore.

In Xiannan Village, the Shen family sat around the table, eating steaming pork and cabbage-stuffed dumplings.

After the meal, the Shen family and his wife sat on the edge of the kang, and the three children knelt in front of them in a regular manner, and bowed happily: "Father, mother, happy New Year!" ”

"Okay." Shen Wang smiled from ear to ear, took out three small red cloth bags from his sleeve, and handed them to Shen Cheng.

Shen Cheng gave the red envelope to the three children respectively, and the three sisters and brothers of the Shen family took the New Year's money with a smile and stood up.

It's the New Year, Shen Kang smiled, this is his first year in Daming, simple and warm, let him experience the fun of the New Year for the first time.

"Okay, go to bed quickly, and get up early tomorrow to greet the neighbors of the village." Shen Cheng laughed and hit a few children.

"Yes!" The three sisters and brothers replied crisply.

This night, Shen Ning lived alone in the back room, and the Shen family's father and mother lived back together, Shen Kang lay on the kang and said: "Second brother, I will be nine years old after the New Year, and you are also thirteen years old. ”

Shen Chang sighed "En" and replied: "I never thought in my life that I would be able to read and write. ”

Shen Kang smiled suddenly: "Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. We are diligent, and others are also diligent, but it is late. I can't think of any other way to get ahead than studying. ”

Shen Chang said: "I listen to you, San'er, the second brother believes in you." In the darkness, Shen Chang's eyes were a little hesitant, and he asked, "San'er, you also said that we are late, diligent, is it really useful?" ”

Shen Kang was once again shocked by his second brother's transparency, he turned his head to look at him, under this straightforward and honest appearance, there might be a piece of unpolished jade.

He smiled and said: "A person's achievements are not measured by how much diligence there is, and diligence does not really make a person." What the world sees is not the process of your diligence, but the result. ”

He chuckled twice and continued, "Be diligent, find the right direction." ”

The imperial examination of the Ming Dynasty focused on the current text and policy theory, which is also known as the Bagu Wen in people's mouths, and the title of the Bagu Wen is generally taken from the Four Books and Five Classics.

Of course, it is not that you can memorize the four books and five classics backwards to gain fame.

Writing an eight-strand essay is divided into eight steps, namely: breaking the topic, undertaking the topic, starting to speak, starting, starting shares, middle shares, back shares, and bundle shares.

When Xia Yan, the head of the dynasty, once stipulated that the eight strands of writing should be pure and elegant, gentle and generous, rather than blindly piling up gorgeous rhetoric.

The scientific expedition has a long way, and this is the direction of diligence.

Shen Chang was stunned for a long time, and muttered in a low voice: "Little San, why do I think you look like my eldest brother?" His tone was a little lost, he didn't understand why his nine-year-old brother suddenly understood so many truths.

However, these principles sounded very pertinent and useful to him.

Shen Kang smiled and said, "Thank you, second brother." ”

"Thank me for what?"

Shen Kang didn't answer his question, only muttered, "I'm so sleepy..."

The next morning, Shen Kang practiced the five-bird opera in the courtyard as usual, jogged for about an hour, washed his face with cold well water, and the family used morning food, carrying a few thin gifts and walking around the village.

The neighbors of the village are all native peasant families, simple and kind, and there are no scum relatives that Shen Kang expected from the novel. Greet each other, warm and lively, and the family did not return home until dusk.

In the New Year in the countryside, children play all day long, and adults gather to drink some wine, and the days are comfortable and comfortable.

In the blink of an eye, it was the eighteenth day of the first lunar month.

On this day, Shen Cheng drove the ox cart and Shen Ning into the county seat to quit work, Shen Wang gave the newly sewn cloth bag and two cyan cardigan robes to Shen Chang and Shen Kang respectively, and then said without saltiness: "Go to Liu Xianggong's house to be obedient, leave food at home, and come back early after comatose." ”

Putting on a green coat, the brothers were very happy and promised to go out. Stepping through the countryside and snow, walking through the sheep intestine path, I finally came to Mozhai.
