Gui Chongyang wanted to open it, so he didn't worry about his background.
Regardless of whether "Dad" is a fairy or a ghost, anyway, his own son is now a human being, although he should be down-to-earth, sometimes he can't take a shortcut.
Since we know that in the next two or three years, the emperor will have three "Northern Expeditions", we can prepare as soon as possible, otherwise we will encounter another "drawing", but there is still a fierce Du Lizheng.
Gui Chongyang made a decision, slept peacefully, and had no dreams all night.
*
To the east of Mujia Village, Meiqing Wood House.
Mei Aoki's stepwife, Qiu, sat on the edge of the kang and bowed her head and wept.
Mei Qingmu frowned and said, "Why are you crying?" So what's going on with the bag? Whose boy is taking this? โ
Qiu Shi wiped his tears and said: "The slave sews with a needle and a thread, why is it not good?" It just so happened that there were no other old clothes, so I dismantled one of the slave's old jackets, which the slave wore from her mother's house back then. Now there are two big ones, plus there is a small one in the slave's belly, if you don't save some flowers, Ming'er's family will drink the northwest wind? What happened to Uncle Shan? Why don't we like it, first we have to pay for Xiaoba to send to the village school, and now even the color of the schoolbag is controlled? โ
This "good uncle" is Mei Tongsheng. According to the genealogical ranking, his name is "Mei Shan", and later he felt that it didn't sound good, so he added a middle word to himself called "Mei Congshan", but he was still not worthy of the name, and he was not good.
Mei Qingmu drooped his face, and he was also depressed.
Men love face, just because of Mei Tongsheng's interference, many people look at the eyes of their husband and wife wrong. It seems that Xiaoba has been abused by his stepmother, and he has become a confused father. The conscience of heaven and earth, Xiaoba is his own flesh and blood, the first son, how can it not hurt?
The stepmother is embarrassed, although the Qiu family can't treat Xiaoba as his own in these years, but the food and clothing are the same as the second child he was born. I'm not blind myself, so I naturally see it in my eyes. Even if Xiaoba was stubborn and wanted to beat him up when he was annoyed, it was Qiu Shi who stopped him.
When the eighth child reached his age, he didn't want to send him to school, but because the good uncle who presided over the village school was strict, many elementary school students who went to school couldn't bear the hardships of studying, and dropped out of school after two or three months. However, according to the rules of the village school, the bundle that has been paid is not refunded, which is 300 yuan.
Qiu's life was careful, thinking about Xiaoba's temperament, he was a little uneasy, afraid of wasting the three hundred dollars. I went to borrow the "Three Character Classic" and came back, and asked my nephew, who was already reading, to teach Xiao Ba Liang.
Xiaoba obviously can't sit still, and he can't learn anything. I just lost my heart, and I didn't bother to send Xiaoba to the village school to study.
How did it come to this point now, and it has become my own fault again? Even his father and eldest brother, who had already separated, called him over and scolded him.
Mei Qingmu is not a saint, so he must not be angry with his eldest son. If my son hadn't gone to school, there would have been no such. However, thinking of the recent rumors, he was also indignant in his heart, even if he was stubborn and disobedient, it was his eldest son, and his family was not poor and could not eat, so he would not give his son away as an heir.
Qiu Shi touched his stomach and thought about his heart. There is not much land in the family, there were two brothers before, the eldest farmer, and the second one studying, which is just right, but now there is a junior.
Really let Mei Tongsheng choose Xiaoba to be Mei Qingzhu's heir?
Qiu's family is also hesitating these days, and the stepwife looks at the stepson in front of her, no matter how kind she smiles on her face, in the end, she is a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, reminding herself that she is a latecomer; But after raising such a big one, it seems to be a labor force, and it is reluctant to give it out for nothing.
If you stay, you have to marry a daughter-in-law and divide the land, and it will not only be the stepson who will not please the eye in the future, but the stepson's family. The stepson is four years older than his son, even if the marriage drags on for two years, most of the grandchildren will come out of the long house first, and the name of the eldest son and eldest grandson will be occupied.
If you go out, you will be a hundred, and in the future, the family will live behind closed doors, and there will be nothing unpleasant. Qiu thought about it, but still felt that it was more comfortable to go out. But she also understands that others can say these things, but she can't say them.
The husband and wife turned off the lights, with different thoughts, tossing and turning.

In the stuffy east room, Mei Xiaobaguang lay on the mat, sleeping profusely.

The next day, Gui Chongyang was not surprised when he saw Mei Xiaoba's schoolbag, and said, "You didn't tell your father and mother what the master said?" โ
Mei Xiaoba was still laughing heartlessly, and said: "I said, my mother is pregnant with a little brother, and she has been heavy in the past two days, and she said that she will sew a new schoolbag for me in two days." โ
But Mei Tongsheng has already spoken, will he understand whether Mei Xiaoba's mother has a baby in her belly?
Sure enough, at the beginning of early school, Mei Tongsheng entered the Mengtong class, and then pointed out that Gui Chongyang and Yang Wu were responsible for today's sweeping. When he saw Mei Xiaoba's schoolbag, the old man was furious and shouted: "Didn't you ask you to change it?" What is it? โ
Mei Xiaoba was originally like everyone else, standing honestly, but she was startled, and her speech stumbled: "I ...... My mother...... The body is heavy, and I will sew a new schoolbag in a few days......"
Where would Mei Tongsheng care about any reason, if he didn't listen to his orders, he would sweep his face, and immediately said: "Black-hearted unkind woman, the family is unfortunate!" "But it's not Mei Xiaoba.
There were more than 20 elementary school students in the room, and there were three or four of them in the Mei family, and they all felt gloomy when they heard the words.
Gui Chongyang looked at his nose and nose, and stood honestly, but he was gloating in his heart. It's also a mistake, Mei Tongsheng's mouth is damaged enough, but Mei Xiaoba's stepmother is not wronged.
Gui Chongyang and Yang Wu were ordered to sweep and sprinkle, and they had to carry brooms and buckets to clean the house. Because it was only the size of a room, it only took half a cup of tea to clean up.
Mei Xiaoba wilted again, drooping her head and following behind Gui Chongyang and Yang Wu, looking like she was going to die.
Gui Chongyang shook his head and said, "What did I say to you yesterday?" It's just a schoolbag, and the master trained it. I've already spoken to my aunt and she said to get you a new school bag. After school, you go straight home with me to pick it up. โ
Mei Xiaoba still drooped her head and remained silent.
When Gui Chongyang sensed that something was wrong and pushed him, several tears had already fallen on the ground in front of him. I heard him say in a muffled voice: "I don't want the sixth aunt's schoolbag, I'll wait for my mother to sew it for me." โ
Teenagers, as long as they are not stupid, have reached the time when they can feel the likes and dislikes of others.
Mei Xiaoba didn't think much about it before, but these days she began to think about it, and she also noticed that something was wrong at home. But in the end, he was just a child, and he died without remembering, and he had a feeling of admiration for his stepmother.
Gui Chongyang frowned slightly, but he didn't say anything more.
The two of them said this here, and Yang Wu over there had already waved his arms and subdued a few elementary school students. Not to mention anything else, just Yang Wu, a big man who is a head and a half taller than these little hairy heads, said a few words loudly, and immediately a few naughty elementary school students next to him were honest.
Only Mei Chen, who originally prided himself as the head of the Mengtong class, was uncomfortable, and when he saw Yang Wu's tall man, he could only pout and read the book by himself.
This morning's lesson is "The Book of Filial Piety", Mei Tongsheng also told a small story of twenty-four filial piety "Lying on the Ice and Seeking Carp", the primary school students listened to it with relish, but Gui Chongyang did not think so.
"The Book of Filial Piety" is a compulsory lesson for Mengtong, and Gui Chongyang learned it when he was five years old. At that time, I was also moved by these elementary school students in front of me, and I felt that it was worthy of the stories of the sages that have been passed down through the ages.
But when "Dad" asked about his homework and knew that Gui Chongyang began to learn the "Book of Filial Piety" and the story of the twenty-four filial pieties, he had another rhetoric.
"The Book of Filial Piety" is not enough, it is mostly some big rules on the surface, scholars should remember in their hearts, that is the norm in this world, unless you have the authority of the world, don't challenge the existing norms. But the story of twenty-four filial piety is just to listen to it, don't think about learning it. There is indeed real filial piety in it, but it is more of a hypocrite's seeking fame, and some are the survival skills of the poor little boy when facing the scumbag father.
The first filial piety among the twenty-four filial pieties, "filial piety touches the sky", is the story of the Shun of the Three Emperors. In the story, Shun's scumbag stepmother and half-brother tried to kill Shun five times and three times, Shun escaped, still his father was obedient and friendly to his younger brother, filial piety touched the emperor, and married his two daughters to him, chose him as the heir, Shun, who became the son of heaven, still respects his father, and also makes his younger brother a prince.
There is also the story of "lying on the ice and begging for carp" that Mei Fuzi just told is the tenth filial piety among the twenty-four filial piety stories, and it is still the story of a poor child who lost his mother.
Wang Xiang, a native of Langya, his biological mother died early, and his stepmother slandered him, which made him disgusted by his father. When his parents fell ill, Wang Xiangyi waited with him; The stepmother wanted to eat live carp, but it happened that the weather was cold and she couldn't fish, so Wang Xiang untied her clothes and lay on the ice, the ice melted, and two carps jumped out, and the stepmother ate them and healed.
This story, these elementary school students in front of them only feel magical, afraid of the power of heaven and earth; But back then, the "father" laughed and said that Wang Xiang was "black-bellied".
What is "black belly"?
