The father and daughter set off early, and 027 was not squeamish, so they hurried on the road without stopping, and arrived in the county seat before noon.

I looked for the pharmacy last time and sold half of the wild ginseng, and I also sold it for ten taels of silver.

Fang Zheng collected the money and came out with 027, and said with a little love: "Duo'er, can Dad buy you a few new clothes?" ”

"No, Dad." 027 shook his head and said with a smile, "My brother's illness is not yet well, and it will cost money to go to school in the future, and our house will have to be renovated. ”

Fang Zheng couldn't cry or laugh, his daughter was so sensible, so that he was ashamed of being a father.

However, Fang Zheng still saw a candy man stall, and remembered that Fang Duo'er hadn't eaten this thing yet, so he couldn't help but feel a little distressed, so he hurriedly pulled her forward and said, "Duo'er, which one do you want to eat, pick it yourself?" ”

027 saw that he would be in high spirits, and he didn't hit him, he chose a fox candy man, and chose a Monkey King for his younger brother, the boss wrapped it, Fang Zheng paid, and the two were ready to go back.

At this time, Fang Zheng saw a stall selling paper and ink in front of him, and he still couldn't help but walk over to look at it for a while, and then said faintly: "Your third uncle will go to Beijing to take the exam soon, and I don't know if this paper and ink are ready." ”

"Otherwise, Daddy will buy some for the third uncle?" 027 saw that Fang Zheng couldn't walk, so he simply said it himself.

It's better to send paper and ink than money.

Besides, if Fang Zhi doesn't use it, will his younger brother be able to use it in school in the future?

Fang Zheng answered, and began to ask the price of those paper and ink, 027 looked at Fang Zheng carefully selected, with a little helplessness in his eyebrows.

No matter how the Fang family is right, he still thinks about others in his heart, and it seems that it has become a habit.

It seems that her mission is still difficult and long.

"Actually, your grandmother may be a little biased, and your second uncle is also a little selfish, but your third uncle is the most talented, and what your grandmother said is right, if he gains fame in the future, our Fang family will all get ahead."

Fang Zheng said while choosing, and he didn't know whether to comfort himself or persuade 027.

He thought about it all night last night, and the other party's family was indeed disappointed, but caring about the Fang family and caring about Fang Zhi had become a habit, so he couldn't help but find some reasons for himself.

027 is noncommittal, in the last life, Fang Zhi went to the capital three times, and lost all his family and did not get famous.

Waiting to fly straight to Huang Tengda? It's better to wait for pie to fall from the sky.

However, these are unknown.

027 saw her father carefully asking what kind of paper is good for writing, she couldn't help crying and laughing, turned her head at will, and saw a familiar figure on the second floor of a restaurant.

Her eyebrows bent slightly, and she pointed as if unintentionally: "Dad, is the third uncle in the restaurant?" ”

"Impossible, your third uncle is in the academy." Fang Zheng was extremely sure, but since his daughter said so, he also took a look, and this look didn't matter, Fang Zheng slapped himself in the face instead.

The restaurant was talking and drinking, and the smile on his delicate face was so wrinkled that it was not Fang Zhi, which one was it?

Fang Zheng hesitated a little and frowned: "Why is the third brother here?" ”

This restaurant is the largest restaurant in the county, Fang Zheng has never been in, but I have heard that the price is expensive, and it is a place where some noble sons come, how can Fang Zhi have the money to come?

027 lightly mentioned: "The third uncle only returned home yesterday, and he should go to the school today, how can he be here, didn't he skip schoolwork?" ”

"No, your third uncle is not like that." Fang Zheng hurriedly argued, but his daughter was a little unsure when she said this, Fang Zhi wouldn't have met any bad people in the school and been taught badly, right? He thought for a moment and said, "Let's go, go up and ask." ”

With that, the two of them took a pack of paper and ink just now and walked towards the restaurant.

The little guy in the restaurant has seen a lot of the world, and when he saw that the father and daughter were dressed in tatters, he hurriedly stopped him in disgust: "Hey, are you two sharpening or staying in the hotel?" ”

Fang Zheng was a little embarrassed, and withdrew his foot, 027 smiled slightly and said, "We are sending paper and ink to Fang Zhifang's son, he should be upstairs." ”

The little guy saw the paper and ink in their arms, and only believed it a little, but he still said with a little suspicion: "Fang Gongzi is a frequent visitor, why have I never seen the two of you?" ”

"Regulars?" Fang Zheng frowned.

"But isn't it, Fang Gongzi and they come here every once in a while, and they are our old customers." The little guy yawned.

027 blinked his eyes, pretending to be innocent and ignorant: "Big brother, we are Fang Gongzi's new recruits, we have never seen the world, this restaurant is really luxurious, I don't know how much it costs to eat a meal?" ”

The little maid is extremely useful, looking at her like a villager, but she is better than her delicate appearance, and she is not annoying, so she looked at her with pity and said: "It depends on how you eat, if you drink a cup of tea and eat some snacks, it is not expensive, and a penny of silver will be stopped, if there are several people like Fang Zhigongzi, eating meat and drinking, you will have to count this every time." ”

As he spoke, he held out two fingers.

Fang Zheng asked tremblingly, "Two coins of silver?" ”

"Phew." The little guy was speechless, so he could only explain, "Two taels of silver!" ”

Fang is like falling into an ice cave, he can only sell a few dollars of silver by cutting a cart of wheat, and two taels of silver is almost half a year's harvest, Fang Zhi actually comes here every three or five days, and I don't know if my father and mother know.

Thinking of this, Fang Zheng didn't care about the little guy's obstruction, and went upstairs with his feet.

Fang Zhi was smiling and enjoying the praise of his classmates.

"Brother Fang, you are not only talented, but also generous, it's really right to make a friend of yours!"

"Brother Fang, you will be famous this year, Su Mou congratulated you in advance."

"Money is something outside the body, how can this little Qian brother care, come and come, drink this cup together."

Yesterday, Fang Zhi went home, and the previous wild ginseng was sold for five taels of silver, and Mrs. Kang brought it to the county seat for Fang Zhi, and Fang Zhi had money, so he naturally came out with his classmates to relax, in fact, they usually come here often, but everyone takes turns to pay.

Some time ago, Fang Zhi was short of money, and he hadn't invited guests several times, and others couldn't help but have some slight discussions, but this time he just took the money and hurriedly took everyone to the restaurant for a leisurely ride.

In fact, there are many poor students in the school who are willing to study hard, and they are thrifty and upright on weekdays, so how can they eat in a restaurant, but Fang Zhi prides himself on being a literati, and he also makes friends with those famous rich and noble children, and over time, he is naturally used to being the same as them.

At this moment, Fang Zhi listened to the praise of these people, and when he was satisfied, he suddenly heard a familiar voice.

"Third brother!"

Fang Zhi turned his head, only to see his eldest brother standing there in his usual patched clothes, followed by the niece with delicate eyebrows and an indifferent expression.

At this time, everyone around him was a little puzzled, looking at Fang Zhi's elegant new shirt, and then looking at the man's patched old clothes, they couldn't help but be a little suspicious.

Fang Zhi's face was embarrassed, and he hurriedly said to everyone: "The people in the family should have something to look for me." With an apologetic smile, he hurriedly pulled Fang Zheng aside.

"Big brother, why are you here?" When he got to the other side, Fang Zhi's face couldn't hold back, and he was a little resentful for a while.
