Chapter 14: A Stain That Can't Be Washed Away

"I said you're not done with this mother-in-law? He will take it, and it is not your money that he takes, his own father and mother will pay for it, what are you doing here? Ji Lianhuai turned over impatiently.

"Alas, I said Ji Lianhuai, do you have long eyes! It's the father and mother who pay for it, but don't forget that we also have a share of the money! The Ji family has not been separated, the harvest in the field over the years, the odd jobs you and your eldest brother have done in their spare time, and the second room! The second room family earns more than these combined! What about money? It's all handed over to the public middle school, and it's difficult for the Chao Niang to ask for a copper plate to buy candy for Mingmao to eat on weekdays, but as long as the fourth child speaks, she doesn't blink! I don't know how much ...... to give this time."

Ji Lianhuai yawned lazily: "It's useless if you think these things are useless, there is only one of the fourth brothers in the family, and my father and mother pointed to him to glorify his ancestors, even if you want the moon in the sky to take a ladder to pick it up, do you dare to move the ladder?" ”

Zhu Shi said unhappily: "Then even if you can't stop it, you have to tell us about it, let's make cattle and horses together......

"The third daughter-in-law!" There was a shout and scolding from the courtyard, which frightened the two of them.

"Where are you dead! I know that I am lazy all day long, and the stove room is busy with one person, when can I eat? Hurry up and go to the backyard to catch a chicken and kill it, and make up for my fourth child! One by one, he has no heart, didn't he see that he lost weight for this family? ”

Zhu patted Yue's mouth weakly, thinking that his complaint had been heard.

She rolled her eyes and said "It's coming", while whispering to Ji Lianhuai.

"Thanks to your fourth brother, we can smell the flesh again. Later, don't patronize yourself to eat, give us Mingmao a ...... Chicken thighs are impossible, and chicken breast meat is not expected, good meat is your fourth brother's...... Leave a chicken fart for us Mingmao. Share! ”

……

At night, the courtyard is quiet, and only occasionally there is some movement in the east.

Kang Pozi tossed and turned on the kang like a pancake, making Ji Qingshan unable to sleep.

"Old woman, what are you tossing?"

What else can Kang Pozi toss, she thinks about her bottom-to-bottom coffin book, and her heart is like a fire, which she has pulled out of her teeth all these years.

"Boss, you said the fourth child this time...... Can it be done? ”

The room was quiet for a while, and then I heard Ji Qingshan say: "It's about the same, the fourth child is not bad in all aspects, and now someone will pull it...... You have to have faith in your son. ”

That being said, only he knows whether there is a bottom in his heart.

When the fourth child was admitted to the middle school, he was also full of ambition, thinking that the ancestral grave of his family had finally smoked, and he had to supply the fourth child even if he smashed the pot and sold iron and bankrupted the family.

But five years have passed, and the hospital examination has been brushed back. Full of hope again and again, disappointed again and again, the ball of qi in his heart is like being pricked in the eye by a needle, and it looks no different from the past on the surface, but the qi inside is becoming more and more insufficient.

The Ji family was also a big family at the beginning, and the family background was also solid, just for the fourth child to study, the situation dimmed year by year, and the days became tighter and tighter.

The other rooms don't know the inside story, but he and Kang's are very clear, as soon as they take the thirty miles of silver, there are really not a few left.

If you don't win next year, will it be possible to sell your land and house? This big family, can there be no resentment then?

But after thinking about it, I felt that the fourth child was still young after all, only twenty-two years old, and there were many opportunities in the future.

If Ji Yu heard Ji Qingshan's heart, she would definitely laugh at him for covering his ears and stealing the bell.

Education is precious, both ancient and modern. Take Dafeng Village as an example, among the 100 households, there are only a few scattered households that can afford to read and write.

This is often the result of the whole family providing for one person, and all the resources are tilted towards one person.

In this way, it is inevitable to treat other children and grandchildren lightly, and after a long time, how can there be no resentment.

The reason why the Ji family can maintain the superficial harmony is that it has not touched its own fundamental interests, and secondly, it also points to the fact that there will really be an official in the family in the future.

But how can Xiucai be so easy to test? There are more than a dozen towns under the jurisdiction of a county, and the number of people who take the exam every year is unknown. Yeyang County is not a big province for scientific research, the number of places is limited, and they are all biased towards the county seat.

If Ji Lianqi has been missing, the Ji family has come to the point of selling land and land, and the other houses have lost their place to live, do you think the explosion will break out?

Ji Qingshan is either ignorant or pretending not to know.

Kang Pozi was convinced, and she was full of confidence for a while: "The fourth child's knowledge must not be said, every year when he comes to the village to beg him to write a pair, the yard is crowded, and no one can ask for it?" They don't know what my son writes, so it shows that he is deeply knowledgeable...... This time it will happen! ”

Unloading the big stone in her heart, Mrs. Kang remembered the unfinished business during the day again, and she scolded the widow Xie only halfway through! How can you get rid of your hatred if you don't scold for a few days and nights!

Thinking of the mourning star, I gritted my teeth even more!

"She's dead! Knowing that she would not die so early, the old lady would never agree to divide the family, although she couldn't sell it, but she could be a livestock servant if she kept it. The work of the eldest and third family is not profitable, and if you have to urge it ten times or eight times, you have to keep an eye on it. That dead girl doesn't say anything else, she does a top job...... Why isn't she dead! ”

Kang Pozi couldn't figure it out, and she couldn't see it...... Otherwise, I wouldn't have given her those three acres of wasteland.

Even if the wasteland is also the land, only she Kang Pozi takes advantage of others, and others take a piece of grass from her in a dream.

At that time, the reason why I agreed to split the family was to wait for the dead girl to take her breath and then take back the idea of the three acres of land. also saved a coffin money, and there was no need to bury the mourning star in the Ji family cemetery.

The abacus is fine, and I can't bear to make a mess with a light flick from God, and it looks like a chicken and an egg.

Kang Pozi said angrily: "Now that Widow Xie has led people away, she almost didn't beat the gong and drum!" Oh, when the time comes, the whole village praises her for her benevolence and righteousness, and they all poke at our backbones and scold, isn't she a slap in the face? I didn't like Webster associating with her in the first place...... Wei's is also a cheap bone! It's just old. The second lard was blinded, and it cost him a full twenty taels to marry her back, although the money was earned by himself, and it was also the old lady's...... A woman of unknown origin, who knows if she is innocent......"

Ji Qingshan's heart was also depressed.

Ji Yu is still clean when she is dead, and when she is alive, it is the ringworm scabies on the faΓ§ade of the Ji family, a stain that can't be washed away.

He has always been the most face-heavy, and he usually walks around the village, which one doesn't hold it and respect it? Recently, it has quietly changed, everywhere he walks, although it is still a smiling face in front of him, there is a little poke and poke behind it, and you don't have to guess to know why.

Because of this, Ji Qingshan doesn't like to go out very much.

Selling Ji Yu's move was a mistake after all.

In the first place, he should have secretly gotten people out of Dafeng Village, instead of making a fuss......

At this point, there is nothing to say.

However, he didn't regret separating Ji Yu from the Ji family, that girl's life was too hard, in case she really got to the fourth child...... He was taboo about this.

A momentary infamy is nothing, let's see, wait for the fourth high school, when there is a time for his family to raise their eyebrows.

Kang's further and further he went, and he was impatient to listen to it any longer.

"Whether she is dead or alive, she is an irrelevant person left and right, and she is still mentioned to do something! Do you lack a working livestock, or do you eat arsenic - you think you have too long to live? She's just going to come back to be a cow and a horse for you now, and you dare to let her in? ”

A sentence poked at Kang Pozi's death hole, she thought about it and stopped talking.
