Chapter 68: The Exam Matters
In the afternoon, Chen Linghong went out.
He went out for one thing, that is, to borrow the two taels of silver from Chen Jinghao.
Silver is not easy to borrow.
He left the house of his two younger brothers first, and only lent one or two pieces of silver in the hands of his third brother Chen Lingshan.
With a tael of silver, in the end there was no way, so he went to the village chief's house.
He sat at the village chief's house for a long time before he opened his mouth to borrow the money.
When the old village chief heard that he was borrowing money for Chen Jinghao, he didn't embarrass him, wrote an IOU, and asked him to press his handprint before giving him the money.
The money, Chen Linghong borrowed.
But the village chief's tael of silver, the IOU was written on the IOU, and it would be repaid in a month.
One month......
Looks like he's going to have to hurry up and find his next job.
"I don't know what the second girl's plaster will look like? If someone buys more, they may be able to save up the silver in a month. ”
Chen Linghong took two taels of silver home, and as soon as he got home, he handed over the two taels of silver to the Qian family.
asked the Qian family to hand it over to Chen Jinghao, and by the way, he told her about borrowing money.
After he finished speaking, Qian took the money, was silent for a long time, and sighed with emotion.
"Who knows. If it can really be sold well, our family will have an extra income. ”
When Chen Linghong heard Qian say this, he glanced up at her and said something next.
After speaking, he shifted his gaze to the window, and did not say anything for a long time. Hearing the faint sound of reading next door, he frowned slightly, looked at Qian, and said, "You can follow up on this matter." But these are not the most important, the most important thing now is to pass the township test of Dalang in a few days. ”
"When Dalang Township tested, you and your eldest daughter-in-law took care of him more, accompanied him to the county, don't wronged him in those two days."
Now do the math, Da Lang will go back to the academy tomorrow, listen to the old gentleman's class for two days, and then prepare for the township exam on the tenth day.
If he passes the township test, then he will become a showman.
Once he becomes a showman, he will not only be able to eat official food, but also make their family's life better.
"Don't worry, our own grandson, I can still let him be wronged. I have saved all the money you earned a few days ago, and it is enough for those two days. ”
Some time ago, she saved the wages earned by several of their male laborers one by one.
Except for buying some coarse salt, she didn't dare to spend a penny.
Qian's words were regarded as giving Chen Linghong a very satisfactory explanation, and after he listened to it, he didn't say anything more.
By the early morning of the next day, the Chen family had all gotten up.
After breakfast, Chen Linghong and Qian took the lead in sending Chen Jinghao to the door.
"Yinqian, you have to put it away, be careful along the way, wait for ten days, I will go to your academy with your mother to find you, and then we will go to the county seat together."
They are not far from Luoshan Town, but the exam is important, and the Qian family doesn't want Chen Jinghao to run around, so she and the Liu family will go directly to Chen Jinghao when the time comes.
Qian took Chen Jinghao's hand and instructed.
Chen Jinghao was also very sensible, listened carefully to what she said, and nodded, "Grandma doesn't have to worry about me so much, my grandson has been in school for ten years, and it is not overnight, I can take care of myself." ”
With your words, the milk is relieved. Okay, it's not too early, say goodbye to your parents, and you can leave quickly. ”
Since Chen Jinghao went to school at Luoshan Academy four years ago, the days of going home are less than a year.
