CHAPTER XXVII

pinching the heavy silver in his hand and going home, along the way, Father Li looked around like a thief, and clenched his fists tightly, as if someone would come to grab it in the next moment. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

Gou Yu felt funny and a little bitter, the family was too poor, maybe my father had never seen so much money!

"What? I made a lot of money today? ”

Seeing that Li's father had forgotten to buy the cloth for his son's clothes, Wang was still a little angry, but when the dog left his father to open his fist that had been clenched tightly all the way, Wang was stunned, this ...... White flowers can simply dazzle people's eyes!

The family has been eating wild vegetable porridge and multigrain cakes for so many years, when have you ever seen a silver of one or two or eight cents? When have you ever seen such a fashionable big silver pendant?

trotted and hurriedly closed the door, Wang leaned on the door panel and breathed for a while, and actually cried: "Daddy, you didn't take your son to steal it, did you?" Although our family is poor, we are also a serious family, but we can't do the dirty thing of stealing chickens and touching dogs! ”

One or two silver flowers and a pair of silver pendants! I'm afraid that the men of Lijiagou won't be able to do it for a day! The husband and son just pulled some game over, how could they get so much silver?

"Husband, let's go find my brother and take the initiative to hand over these things, maybe my son can suffer less flesh and skin, husband...... Whining. ”

Wang Shi whimpered when he said this, it was difficult for him, an honest man, to go to the county seat to see wealth......

"Mother, don't cry, this is all serious money, it's all money that is spent brightly, and you are not afraid of ghosts knocking on the door in the middle of the night."

Li Gouyu was distressed and helpless, and explained the origin of the silver and the pendant in detail.

"Don't lie to your mother, your mother doesn't believe it, how can a cart of wild things be sold for so much silver? The second baby's family goes up to the mountains to hunt all day long, and it only costs a few cents of silver a day, why did our family get so much silver for the first time they entered the city? Also, the firewood and grass you dried are not valuable things at all, they are all over the mountain, why did you sell them for so much silver? ”

Wang didn't believe it.

"Our Li Jiagou man is honest, he sells things all day long, where can he get a lot of money? Our family is also lucky, as soon as we entered the city, we met a big profiteer who was in a hurry to use the ingredients, so I got this two silver, as for the grass leaves I dried, they are all medicinal materials, bupleurum, honeysuckle, cat eyes, and the root is the root of the jujube tree, all of which are used in the prescription to catch medicine and cure diseases, or how can they be sold for one or three dollars of silver? ”

Gou Yu then patiently explained, so much hard currency ran into the hands of a woman who had drunk wild vegetable porridge for half her life, and it was no wonder that she didn't believe it.

It's like a poor guy winning a $5 million lottery on a cold day, and that feeling can really drive people crazy.

"Really?"

Wang didn't know how many times she asked this, and every time she could get a positive answer from Gouyu, but every time she wouldn't believe it.

Li Gou rubbed his mouth for a long time, which made Wang feel a little more at ease, and coaxed the two of them to sleep with kind words.

At night, the sky is dotted with stars, which is very beautiful, and Li Gou looks at the cool moon plate like water, and his heart can't help but tighten.

It's been a few months since I came to Daming, and my family is still surrounded by walls, and today I just saw more than one or two pieces of silver, and my parents are like this!

knocked on the dilapidated wall built by the earthen moat, which had long been washed away by the rain, Li Gouyu secretly made up his mind to the moon, one day, he would want the title of the gold list, so that his parents could also live a life of fine clothes and food.

……

The news of Mr. Li Gou's gift of books has spread far and wide in this small Li Jiagou, and it is rare for Mr. to give books in private schools, and there are not many books in private schools, and those who read books are closer than their wives with books, and they give books to a student coldly! This is an extremely rare thing in a private school in this small place.

Early in the morning, the dog just got up after listening to the rooster's crowing, and was mysteriously pulled to his house by the old man.

"Grandpa, why are you calling me here?"

What's wrong with this old man today, this is mysterious?

I saw that the old chief moved away from the eight immortal table at home, and knocked on the wall with a small hammer, it turned out that this brick was alive! Pulling out the brick, the old lieutenant took his hand in.

The silk was wrapped in layer after layer, and what was hidden in the hole in the wall turned out to be a book.

The Analects

"This book is said to be full of what the old master said, there was a prime minister who said that half of this book can beat the world, the old man has a poor memory, and he is also cold I heard that Mr. gave you a book, so I remembered, this book, sent to you."

The dust on the books was dusted over and over again, and the old chief handed the book to Li Gou.

It was Zhao Pu, the prime minister of the Song Dynasty, who said that half of the Analects conquered the world, which was a bit exaggerated, but as a book taught by words and deeds of Confucius and his disciples, this book was still very marketable in this era.

"Grandpa, I believe this book is your beloved thing, a gentleman doesn't take away people's love, and dogs can't be left."

Li Gouyu's little head shook like a rattle.

"Huh." The old man stroked his beard and smiled, this kid was obviously happy, his eyes were pierced, but he could still say such polite words!

"It doesn't matter, no one in Grandpa's family is literate, and this book is useless to me, but the dog is left smart, and he can read and understand how to use it, what is this called, you look at Grandpa's brain, yes, this is called a good horse with a good saddle, and a hero with a good knife." Dog leftover, you are our Li Jiagou prodigy, proficient in reading, writing, and arithmetic, this book, grandpa will give it to you! ”

The old man said, and then stuffed the Analects into the dog's hand.

The whole village has high hopes for themselves, and the village has not been able to produce a literate person for many years.

"Thank you, grandpa."

Li Gouyu bowed deeply to the lovely and respectable old man in front of him.

"Our Li Jiagou's prosperity in the future depends on you."

Looking at the back of the dog left, the old man muttered earnestly.

……

I ran to the river at the foot of the peach blossom slope to practice the words for half an hour, and then followed a group of schoolchildren into the house to study, and the daily days were hard, but they were also fulfilling.

Yesterday, I went to the county town and found that I was not useless, or more like a genius, I read and read by myself, and I have the experience of the information explosion period in later generations, it should be said that if you want to fill your stomach in this era, it is not a big problem to be well-off.

I can speak and write, be a bookkeeper for a landlord or be a master for the county lord if I am lucky, and occasionally eat, drink, and the days are still comfortable, but why are I willing to lose this laziness to study and study?

Is it to free the family from annoying poverty? Is it to get ahead in reading and get respected by everyone? Or is it more to get acquainted with celebrities such as Xu Jie, Gao Gong, and Zhang Juzheng in the current Ming Dynasty?

Maybe not, or maybe both, anyway, the dog is now ******** stuck in the dead end of studying.

Everything is inferior, only reading is high, reading and going out, you can eat and drink at home, and you can also get the respect of everyone in the neighborhood.

Shaking his head, he threw out these miscellaneous thoughts, and the dog followed a group of children into the peach blossom house.

What is surprising is that there is a guest in front of today's peach blossom house, that is, the landlord Li who gave the dog leftover rhubarb.
