Today, Xue Langjing came back a little early, and when she got home, dinner had just been burned.

According to the custom, the first thing I do when I get home is to take a hot shower to wash away my tiredness.

After taking a bath and leaving the room, she happened to be attracted by the smell of meat from the kitchen, Xue Langjing couldn't help but take a look, looking at the two plates of braised pork with bright color and fragrance on the stove, she couldn't resist the temptation and wanted to get it, but her hand was accurately intercepted by a pair of chopsticks.

Xue Langjing, who couldn't steal the fish, had no choice but to coquettish the owner of the chopsticks, that is, the eldest sister, and she sandwiched two pieces for herself, and picked the largest one, and was rewarded with a chestnut by the eldest sister with a smile, and finally left with a mouth full of delicious meat and a grin.

When I came to the courtyard, I saw that almost everyone in the past stood by and watched, only watching from the sidelines, and even said that they were supervising grandmothers and fathers, who were helping to pick up the herbs they brought back for the first time.

It's really strange, could it be that the sun came out in the west?

When she was in the kitchen, she felt that something was wrong, there was so much meat burning in the pot, and usually grandma and they would inevitably have one of them watching from the sidelines, for fear that the girls would steal too much meat.

Today, I didn't even worry about the meat being stolen and eaten, but went out to help!

But that's a good thing.

It's just that grandpa's face seems to be very ugly, as if someone owes him a few hundred taels of silver, and he is probably still angry that he let his sisters study.

Forget it, leave him alone.

Anyway, grandma, it's enough for them to have a good change.

After dinner, I walked around outside and went back to the study to read.

Not long after, Jiang Qianyue also came in.

According to what they had discussed before, during the day, she taught everyone to learn the Three Character Scripture, and in the evening, she could come to Xue Langjing's study to warm her books, and a smaller desk was placed here for her.

Now that she is starting to learn a thousand words, if there is anything she doesn't understand, she can just ask Xue Langjing, so that it is much easier for her to read and learn characters, otherwise she can only save up a bunch of these questions and then ask Old Man Zhang for advice.

Wen Shuwen was almost there, Jiang Qianyue packed up her things, and chatted with Xue Langjing.

As he spoke, he talked about the daytime.

She told Xue Langjing everything that happened during the day.

After listening, Xue Langjing pondered for a while.

"So, do you think I should go buy a few more sets of teaching supplies for my grandmother and them, so that they can learn with the big guys?"

According to Jiang Qianyue's personality, if she hadn't had any ideas, she wouldn't have gossiped so much with her.

"If you have plenty of money, I think they are..."

After saying a few words, Jiang Qianyue suddenly paused, a little embarrassed to continue, she was just generous to others, she said it easily, but a complete set of purchases, at least four or five taels of silver, these sets of sets, no matter how you say it, it will cost twenty taels of silver.

How important is twenty taels of silver?

Just think about the Xue family who went to the county government to fight a lawsuit for twenty taels.

Xue Langjing looked at her and said, "But you know, in fact, grandma herself is reluctant to pay so much silver, otherwise she won't come to me." ”

"Yes."

Xue Langjing continued, "But it is undeniable that they also desire to study, but this desire is not as important as the silver in their eyes. ”

Jiang Qianyue sighed softly, a little helpless, "That's right, silver is still too important in the eyes of our people." ”

"Okay, in fact, I'm just asking, I still have some silver in my hand, I'll buy a few more sets tomorrow, and use it, isn't this money just to spend it, it's just to get up later." And I've spent so much money on my grandmother, and I think they won't be embarrassed to ask me for the difference in the bride price when the time comes, so they can let me take more credit, haha. ”

"Poof..."

Jiang Qianyue, who was sitting opposite her, was amused by her last sentence, she heard the sisters say that Xue Langjing not only had to pay the sisters a rich dowry, but also gave the bride price that they could have gotten in exchange for marrying.

Xue Langjing then asked her, "How many sets do you buy, five sets?" ”

"Isn't that going to be good?"

"Heh, I'm afraid that if I buy too much, my grandfather will throw it out!"

Jiang Qianyue hesitated for a while, and couldn't help but say, "Actually, grandpa should also want to study in his heart, but, just..."

Xue Langjing directly said for her, "It's just that he can't erase the face of the head of his family, the eldest man, obviously everyone was against the sisters studying at the beginning, but the grandmother and the five of them defected to the camp and went directly to the granddaughters." Not only that, but he hasn't been called yet, and he has read a few of them, and he is the only one who hasn't learned anything, so he lost his temper, blaming everyone for disobeying him, and trying to arouse everyone's ideas. ”

"Since you know, then why don't you follow his wishes, if everyone participates, then there will be no objection in this family, and it will be convenient for everyone to study in the future, it is better than letting grandpa sulk every day, and he can only find a way to be angry with everyone", Jiang Qianyue was a little puzzled.

"Me? I probably can't get used to it", Xue Langjing sighed, "Like grandma and daddy, if there is no other choice, let's give them a step, and they can go down, and as long as you break it and crumple it and tell them, you can still talk to them reasonably, as long as they know that the final result will be beneficial to them, they will accept it half-push and half-on-the-spot, so that we juniors can also do things." But like grandpa, he just wants to be the patriarch of Yiyantang, it's hard for us to let him half-push and half-do, if you want to be good for him, but you have to lower your body and be low to be small to please move him, it's too tiring, and..."

And what?

Jiang Qianyue asked her in her heart.

Xue Langjing paused for a moment before continuing, "And maybe it's past experience, I don't expect myself to be a filial son and grandson, and to be a cow for this family who only knows how to work hard, and I even hated them very much before." It doesn't matter if I am not filial, as far as they used to treat me, I don't think that all the people in this family deserve to be respectfully offered to me as ancestors, even if they want to be filial, they must always give me a reason to make me feel that they are worthy of my filial piety. I don't know about others, anyway, I'm not a foolish person, at least the grievances are clear, if you repay the grievances with virtue, then how can you repay the virtues? ”

Jiang Qianyue was speechless about her thoughts, which seemed to be beyond her cognition.

But doesn't she herself boast that she uses the distinction of grievances as the criterion for dealing with the world?

These days, getting along with the sisters, especially Xue Langjing, has always subverted her worldview again and again.

Were all the ideas she had embraced in the past not all true?
