Wang Shushi suddenly came to such a scene, it was definitely not a whim, at least it was planned for a night. Through observation, he could see that Fang Yingwu was obviously no longer a thing in the pool, and his future achievements would inevitably be outstanding.

Don't say anything else, just say that he can catch the door of the magistrate, which is enough to be enviable. How could the county lord give five taels of silver to civilians as a scholarship for no reason?

Moreover, with his father Fang Qingzhi's pearl and jade in front, the dragon gave birth to the dragon and the phoenix, and Fang Yingwu couldn't be any worse. So this is the perfect time to burn the cold stove, miss this tailwind boat, and the next opportunity will not know when it will be available.

Of course, Wang Shushi knows that it is indeed possible to have big benefits for letting his daughter observe the festival, but the investment period is too long, the results are very slow, and the risks are also large. Twenty years of hard work, who knows what will happen in the middle? Therefore, letting her daughter keep the festival is a last resort when there is no other way.

Since there is a potential stock with obvious signs, and there is no need to wait for 20 years, of course, it has immediately become a priority. Although it is unlikely that you will marry your daughter into the main house, it is acceptable to be a formal concubine with a marriage contract and status.

In the small world of Huaxi Three Villages, where there are no outstanding characters, it is better to be a concubine for a promising figure like Fang Yingwu than to be the main room for those villagers.

What's more, Fang Yingwu used his family affairs to provoke such a big dispute, making his family a thorn in the side of the Cheng family, and making Sister Lan a hot potato-like focus. So he must be responsible for the end, who will take the hot potato of Sister Lan if he doesn't take it?

said that in the courtyard of the Wang family, in a trance, Fang Yingwu was half-pushed and half-pulled to the lunch table of the Dragon Boat Festival, and was forced to press the chief. It wasn't until he sat down that Fang Yingwu remembered that there seemed to be a local tradition that the son-in-law was to sit in the chief for the first time.

This is another truth, Fang Yingwu thought. With his xing personality, knowing that he had been tricked, he would be more or less annoyed and angry, but at the moment he couldn't get angry, so he could only smile bitterly.

The reason why I am impulsive is because of the strange emotions in my heart! And this emotion must come from the previous Fang Yingwu, otherwise how could he fall into the trap so easily!

Of course, it is not excluded that Sister Lan, who is "full of economy", has an excellent figure, and is not bad looking, is indeed a little attractive to him. In this era of women's lack of power, sometimes it is quite happy to be a man

The banquet was set up under the bean shed in the courtyard, Mr. Wang and his three sons were all at the table, and the other ladies were responsible for cooking and serving, but Sister Lan did not know which room she was hiding in and never showed up.

However, remembering the big words he just said that he was going to sell his land and replace people, Fang Yingwu regretted it a little. In these years, I value land, and if I don't have to, I won't sell land if I sell anything, and it's not a good thing to sell my field. Thinking of the embarrassment of the four walls of the family now, whether you can afford to raise more people is still two words.

He said to Wang Shushi in distress: "Actually, I was impulsive, and I only had this bit of silver in my hand, and I didn't have enough ten taels of money." As for the few acres of thin land in the family, they are all owned by my father, and it is false to claim that selling the land is false and cannot be taken seriously. In addition, the family still owes thirty taels of debt, so"

Master Wang said with a smile: "It's okay, today is just a contract for status, and it's okay if you don't fulfill it immediately." When you can afford the price, it's not too late to officially accept Sister Lan. ”

Fang Yingwu was very uncomfortable when he heard these words, was this using futures to hang him? What does it mean to wait until he can afford it? With his current situation and future outlet, it must be a matter of the time after the examination of Xiucai, and at that time, this Wang Shushi will not lose anything.

I remembered that Wang Shushi turned himself away and couldn't go to social studies for the sake of Wang Dahu's little benefit, and couldn't help but sneer: "What a calculation!" If it is done in the next, the agreement will be made, and if it is not done in the next, the agreement will not be done, Mr. Wang, you can't break the book. You treat your daughter like this as a commodity to be sold for a price, isn't it too selfish and greedy? ”

Master Wang sighed: "When I was young, I thought the same as you, what was the result? Nothing was accomplished, and a few members of the family were poor and starved to death, so they were lucky enough to take the errand of the social school teacher before they could afford to eat.

Your father is a member of the diet, and his expenses are supported by the government, and your own money and food are completely exempted, as long as the family has a little land, how can you live more easily than others, and you can naturally be high. But we are different, we can't get high, and we want to starve to death. ”

Fang Yingwu looked at the "Dragon Boat Festival Feast" full of wild vegetables and no oil meat on the table, and was silent for a moment.

In this poor mountain village struggling for survival, selfishness and greed are not necessarily immoral, but just the instinct of survival. Paying too much attention to these is a mediocrity, and you can't have too harsh requirements when dealing with these people.

Putting aside those distracting thoughts, Fang Yingwu said: "When I came here, I originally came here to borrow books, and I asked Mr. Wang to be accommodating." ”

"In social studies, there are not many books, and I often need to use them in class. If you need to read which volume, then ask Sister Lan to send it to you every ri, and then get it back in the evening, how about that? ”

Fang Yingwu couldn't wait to say: "That's fine!" I'll send you a copy of the Analects tomorrow! ”

There is wine on the table, but it is similar to boiled water, and it can't get drunk. Drinking until the afternoon, Fang Yingwu only felt a little up, and his body was just a few taels lighter.

Toward evening, he took his leave. But until Zuihou, I didn't see Wang Lan show up, which is understandable, when a woman's family encounters this kind of thing, she always has to make a pose.

Wang Shushi and his eldest son Wang Yingli watched Fang Yingwu go away at the entrance of the village, and Wang Ying couldn't help but ask: "These two people rumored that Brother Qiu is ten times more powerful than Cheng Zongjia. Father and Brother Qiu are easy to deal with, how can they be so cowardly in front of Cheng Zongjia. ”

Wang Shushi was also very helpless, "Dealing with a scholar like Brother Qiu for my father, I can feel the context accurately, and I can be reasonable." Dealing with a rough person like Cheng Zongjia, it was Xiucai who met a soldier, and he couldn't explain it clearly, and he was reduced by his strength, and he couldn't do anything. ”

Wang Ying muttered: "Brother Qiu is also a scholar, so he can subdue the wicked man Cheng Zongjia, but his father is still not as powerful as Brother Qiu." gave his sister to him, and he was also a person who was entrusted to him. ”

When Fang Yingwu returned home, he saw his uncle who was about to fetch water with a wooden bucket at the door, and suddenly felt much more pleasing to the eye, nodded at his uncle with a smile, and said hello.

"Poof!" Uncle Fang Qingtian saw that his nephew, who had been acting violently recently, greeted him with kind eyebrows, and his hands couldn't help but tremble, and the barrel fell directly into the well.

May is the day of reading, and when it comes to the next ri, Fang Yingwu, who is eager to read, once again wakes up early from his dream and stands in the courtyard looking forward to it. Finally, I saw Sister Lan'er appear at the head of the courtyard in the morning, and there were a few villagers watching curiously in the distance.

Although the mountains and countryside are not so particular about the great defense of men and women, Sister Lan, a sensitive person, came to find Fang Yingwu at this sensitive time, which has already made the villagers aware of what it means. Especially Sister Lan has taken off her white filial piety clothes and changed into a light blue floral coarse cloth dress, and her face is red, no matter how you look at it, it is also something else!

Fang Yingwu was worried that Sister Lan would be scared away, so she hurriedly stepped forward and led her into the room to talk. "There is no one else here, Sister Lan, to tell you the truth, in your heart, are you willing to obey me?"

Because it is not Ming Media who is marrying, Fang Yingwu can only ask "from me" instead of "marry me". Maybe it was machismo, he wanted to know how Sister Lan would answer.

Wang Lan said in a low voice: "The slave family has also read, so naturally they know their parents' orders, and they dare not disobey." ”

This answer seems ordinary and ordinary, but let Fang Yingwu hahadaxiao.

Of course, Fang Yingwu didn't expect a woman from a good family like her, who was a little tender and "well-read", to say anything shameless, but as long as she could hear a trace of "I do" from her mouth, it would be enough!

Then he said: "If you come, you will be safe, and if you are tired back and forth, you will not be good." So don't go, stay and read with me! If you can't achieve anything in the future, I'm afraid that your father will regret it again! ”

Father didn't confess like this, but just said that he would send the book Wang Lan asked in a low voice: "How can the slave family accompany you?" I'm going to be home in the evening. ”

Hearing the word "accompaniment" from her mouth, somehow, Fang Yingwu found that she was a little stupid, and hurriedly took a few deep breaths and suppressed the passion in her heart. In broad daylight, there are people nearby, you can't be too beastly, or read! May is the day of reading, and it is a good time for teenagers.

"That's how to accompany you." Fang Yingwu picked up a volume of Analects brought by Sister Lan, walked out of the narrow house, shook his head in the open courtyard and recited: "Volume 1, learn first." Zi said: Learn and learn from time to time, don't you also say? Have friends come from afar, are you happy? People don't know and are not ashamed, aren't they also gentlemen? ”

After reading it a few times, some past learning impressions gradually appeared in my mind, saying that it was a review and indeed a review.

Fang Yingwu put his mind at ease, not to let himself really learn from scratch, then three or four months is definitely not enough, and he has not obtained the talent of "never forgetting".

However, he found a new problem, and only remembered a few sentences of the original text that were not useful for the exam. In the eight-strand text shijie, the original text can only be the title, and if you want to write an article, you have to learn the commentary on the scriptures. Then Mr. Wang is really a pimple head, if he wants to read the Analects, he will only give him one volume? Don't know how to actively attach the commentary to the scriptures?

Fang Yingwu couldn't help but secretly speculate that maybe Mr. Wang, who had been an old boy all his life, couldn't learn well, so he couldn't do without the commentary on the scriptures in social studies classes, and he had to take it with him from time to time as a teaching reference to read it?

Sister Lan next to her saw that Fang Yingwu stopped, smiled slightly in her heart, and took the initiative to recite the annotations of Zhu Zi's Analects: "This is the first part of the book, so the meaning of the book is the door to the Tao, the foundation of virtue, and the priority of scholars. Learn to be effective. People are all good, and there is a sequence of consciousness, and those who are awakened after will follow the actions of the first sense, so that they can be clear and good and return to their beginning. Xi, the number of birds flies also. Learn endlessly, like a bird flying a lot. Say, joy also. If you learn and learn from time to time, you will be familiar with what you have learned, and the center likes to say that its progress is not a last resort. ”

Fang Yingwu was overjoyed, he almost forgot, isn't this a ready-made living bookcase in front of him! Reading at night with red sleeves and fragrance is the most elegant pursuit of readers. I can only read during the day, but it's also very good.

Pursuit is pursuit, but how many readers can really find such red sleeves? You don't see, those who can recognize a few words are sought after by talented women, and those who can recite the scriptures throughout are really rare.

Fang Yingwu felt a faint sense of pride in his heart, if such a strange woman was not born in a closed mountain village and was unknown, she would definitely be robbed by the vassal and elegant literati as a treasure, how could she have any chance.
