Dabao went to study with Wei Zan in the morning, had a break after lunch for a while, continued to attend classes after a nap, and had his free time after dinner.

After passing the college exam, his homework increased sharply.

This aggravation is not only a quantitative aggravation, but also an increase in difficulty.

Although the examination of the college examination is not simple, it is impossible to compare it with the township examination. Dabao only relied on his good memory to read the book before, and he actually didn't understand the interpretation of many places.

Wei Zan took him to read the book again, explained it to him one by one, and made an article every three days, starting from solving the problem.

"The gentleman's knowledge is better than that of the master, but I didn't expect the gap to be so big." Dabao whispered to the third sister and the fourth sister, "In the past, the master said that I was smart, and I really listened to it, but now I know that the master is comforting me." ”

He held his cheeks and sighed: "The three articles this time, from the beginning of the problem, have been taught by Mr. to the end, you say, am I really qualified to go down in five years?" ”

Yo ho, this is a blow to people?

Wei Jin taught Sihua'er to write at home, and when she heard her brother's words, she picked up the book and slapped him on the head.

"You're unambitious, and now you think you can't pass the test? If you don't want to take the exam, then don't go to school with Wei Gongzi and work as a farmer at home. ”

"Don't, don't, third sister, I'm just talking, it's not that I don't want to study."

After a rare day off, he returned to his renovated old house, and his two sisters also returned to accompany him. The three sisters and brothers sat under the pear blossom tree, laughing and playing, and the atmosphere was very good.

"Third sister, I heard that Xiaoya was picked up by his uncle?"

The smile on Wei Jin's face faded, and he hummed softly.

Sihua'er glared at her younger brother, blaming him for not opening which pot to mention.

Xiaoya walked quietly, and when he got up in the morning, in addition to a note with crooked writing, he also left a blue-white jade cicada.

Xiaoya said that his uncle came to pick him up, he had confirmed the identity of the other party, and said that he didn't want to be a burden to Sanhuaer, and he wanted to go out to work hard for his future, and one day he would be able to stand in front of Sanhuaer with dignity.

Sihua'er couldn't figure out when Xiaoya had thoughts about the third sister. But it's okay if the other party leaves, if he doesn't leave, Sanhuaer will marry in the future, and he must not be stimulated to death? No matter what, Sanhua'er can't marry Xiaoya!

"You two are talking, I'm going to cook."

When he came to the stove room, Wei Jin chose half a chicken with an expressionless face and began to chop and chop.

"Fourth sister, Xiaoya really didn't say a word to you when she left?"

"Well, Xiaoya couldn't speak, and the note he left said that he was afraid that he would be reluctant to leave if he said it, so he chose to leave at night."

Dabao snorted twice: "If I see him in the future, I must give him two fists first." ”

Sihua'er glanced at her younger brother, didn't say anything, picked up the pen and continued to write.

My sister assigned her homework, and she had to write five small letters a day. She had never studied and her wrist was hurting for days.

After chopping the chicken, Wei Jin looked at the mess of rotten meat and exhaled mournfully. I felt a little depressed.

She originally wanted to throw away the jade cicada left by Xiaoya, but then it was quietly received in her purse.

Burn the fire, stir-fry the meat, mix with water, and simmer. The chicken on the board turned into a yellow stewed chicken with rice, which made Dabao, who hadn't eaten his sister's craftsmanship for a long time, eat a round belly.

After getting the fame of Xiucai from Dabao, Wei Jin consciously pulled his sister out of the sight of everyone in the town.

Before, it was nothing for her to take her sister and sister to do some food business, and the county lord would not be entangled in whether Dabao was from a merchant background. But after he got the fame, it would be inappropriate for him to sell things on the street again, and it would have a bad impact on his younger brother.

Now the powder shop is completely handed over to the second sister, and the eldest sister's business in the county is also okay, and the income of the two families is enough to maintain the operating expenses.

She took her fourth sister back to the village, firstly, to take care of her younger brother nearby, and secondly, she had to start thinking about the problems of her in-laws' family for Sihuaer.

The tea mountain at home will be able to produce new tea next year, and the quality of the first two years may not be too good, but it is enough to make food. She took advantage of this time to experiment with a lot of recipes, and used two of the books for keeping recipes at home.

In addition to eating with tea, there are also some recipes for dietary therapy, which she searched out from her memory, and gave the old Taoist a look, the two discussed it several times, and only after picking and choosing were they determined eighteen soup and porridge recipes.

Coupled with the daily recipes, it is enough to open a restaurant, but it becomes a problem who will come forward.

She didn't hide it from her sisters and sisters, this restaurant will definitely give Sihuaer as a dowry in the future, so it is impossible to let the two sisters be responsible, and Sihua can't do it herself, so where to find an honest and reliable shopkeeper is a problem that needs to be solved urgently.

During the meal, their sisters and brothers were still discussing this issue, but they didn't expect that in the evening, Lao Dao took someone to find her in person.

There is a tea mountain at home, and the tea for hospitality is naturally the best. Wei Jin's skill in making tea is not very skillful, but no one can match it in the countryside.

Lao Dao took the middle-aged scribe to sit in the courtyard, took a sip of fragrant tea, and suddenly felt that the whole person was sublimated.

Wei Jin is such a clever person, when he sees Lao Dao's eyebrows raised, he knows that he likes the taste of this tea. Giving her sister a look, Sihuaer made an excuse to enter the house, and after a while, she came out with a delicate bamboo basket. It contained two jars of tea leaves.

The clear tea in the octagonal wooden box above is made of the most tender leaf tips, and when brewing, the roots of the tea leaves are distinct, and the book gradually opens up in the hot water, like a leaf needle standing in the water. The octagonal box is written with the word "silver needle" in the technique of yin engraving.

Underneath is a jar with a ceramic cork, a thick and short can, a wine glass-sized filler, tightly plugged with a wooden stopper wrapped in a red cloth to prevent the tea leaves from smelling.

On the body of the jar is a painting of a simple clump of jasmine flowers and two vivid butterflies flying on it. This is a jar of jasmine tea, and the quality of the tea is not as good as that of the silver needle, but it is also considered to be of the highest quality.

The middle-aged scribe took the bamboo basket first, then opened it in front of the old man and looked at it, smelled the tea again, and his eyes lit up.

"If the owner can guarantee that the tea is like this, then I can also promise the owner that the owner's tea will become a must-buy for the nobles."

Just now, Lao Dao clarified the identity of this person. The seemingly polite scribe was actually a cook, and then he injured his hand, so he planned to run a restaurant, but his daughter was favored by the bully to marry, this person simply sold the family property directly, and took his wife and children all the way to the old way.

Oh, by the way, this is still the nephew of the old Taoist world, that is, the youngest son of the elder brother of the old Tao, no wonder the old Taoist will personally take him to Wei Jin to cooperate.
