Chapter Seventy-Two: Contradictions
originally bought a house, because there was no separation, Du Chensheng was also worried that his son would not provide for him, and the house fell under Du Chensheng's name. Now Du Yunyi wants to change the house, and the difference is still made up by his father-in-law, and it is impossible to write Du Chensheng's name in the deed.
If you want to come to a small house and want to change the house, it is not enough to live on the one hand, and on the other hand, you also want to put the house in Du Yunyi's own name, right?
Du Chensheng and Du Yunnian were like mirrors in their hearts, and Yao's was not confused, so they had this question.
Zhang was not stunned at all, and said calmly: "Naturally, it is the name of the fallen prince." ”
Du Yunnian and Yao's faces changed, and they turned their heads to look at Du Chensheng.
The Du family is not separated, and the house in the city has a small second room. How could it be possible to let my brother and sister-in-law occupy the house now? Unless they come up with seventy or eighty taels of silver to compensate for the loss of the second room.
As for the small third room, everyone never thought about the family business and the share of that group of orphans and widows.
Du Yunyi's face was not good. He didn't know why his wife suddenly talked about it. Although they also discussed changing the house, what they said at the time was to let Du Chensheng take a little money out, and they would get together and change the house. This matter has nothing to do with the Zhang family, and he has never said that the deed falls in his name.
After all, there is no separation, and if he does this, Du Chensheng will not agree.
Everyone in the room looked at Du Chensheng, but Du Chensheng only sat there with a calm face, not saying a word.
Seeing this, Yao couldn't help but speak: "Sister-in-law, isn't this okay?" The house is public, and the name of the father is down. ”
If it was in the past, Zhang's words would have been more tactful, but since she knew that her uncle liked to gamble and owed a lot of debts, she had no scruples. If Du Chensheng gets angry, he just makes a fuss and divides the family. Otherwise, no amount of money in their small house will be enough to fill the hole for Du Yunnian.
She smiled slightly, and was about to speak, but a child ran outside the door, it was Du Jinfu.
He said in a milky voice: "Uncle and grandfather, my grandfather said that the hour is almost up, please go over and worship your ancestors." ”
Du Chensheng looked at the drip in the house, and if it was really time, he quickly stood up and said, "Let's talk about this later, worship the ancestors first." With that, he walked outside with his hands behind his back.
The Zhang family hurriedly called the two sons in the house to come out, and the Yao family also hurried to call Du Jinshou.
The sacrifices in the second room have long been moved from the Chen family and the Yao family to the big room under the command of the Niu family. There is no need to go to the cemetery to worship during the Laba Festival, just burn incense at home and make sacrifices. Dependents do not need to be involved.
Du Yinsheng and Du Yunchang were already waiting at home, and when they saw the people in the second room coming in, they swept around, but they didn't see Du Jinning, their brows furrowed, and they asked, "Where is Brother Ning?" ”
Du Chensheng glanced back blankly, and then remembered that he hadn't informed Du Jinning.
Du Jinshou stood beside his father, and when he heard this, he said quickly: "Didn't Du Xiaosi not participate in ancestor worship in the past?" What to do with him? ”
Du Yunyi's father and son were also puzzled.
When I came back today, I saw that the people in the third room went to the upper room to eat, so they wanted to ask, but the Chen family and the others kept going in and out, and Du Yunyi didn't find a chance to ask. At this time, the three of them all stared at Du Yinsheng, wondering what happened at home during this time.
When Du Yinsheng heard this, his heart immediately became angry, and he asked Du Chensheng: "Brother Ning is still not qualified to participate in ancestor worship?" ”
Du Chensheng also knew that his eldest brother valued Du Jinning, and hurriedly said, "I asked Brother Shou to find him." As he spoke, he waved his hand at Du Jinshou.
When Du Jincheng and Du Jinde originally went home, they had inquired and knew that it was Du Jinning and Du Fangling who were at Mrs. Lin's house.
Du Jinde was about to tell Du Jinning where he was, but he was pulled by Du Jincheng and signaled him not to make a sound, although he was puzzled, he still kept his mouth shut.
Du Jinshou was not happy to look for someone, but seeing that his uncle and grandfather's faces were not good-looking, his father did not object, so he had to pout.
If you want to find someone, you have to wait for this ancestor worship, Du Yunyi took advantage of this opportunity to ask: "Why did Ning Ge'er participate in this year's ancestor worship?" He waited for him at any time.
Speaking of this, Du Yinsheng's face was full of pride and pride: "Yunyi, you don't know yet, right?" Brother Ning, he has the ability to never forget, and yesterday the mountain chief of the Boyue Academy wanted to accept him as a personal disciple. ”
As if he remembered something, the smile on his face narrowed, he glanced at his younger brother unhappily, turned his head and said to Du Yunyi with a pleasant smile: "After sacrificing to the ancestor in a while, I will tell you in detail about Brother Ning'er's situation." ”
Saying that, he sighed again: "It's not easy for our family to have such a genius who reads, even the well-informed academy chief is so rare that he can't do it, and he rushes to accept him as an apprentice, but our family doesn't know how to cherish it." Your grandfather is underground and knows how to be angry. ”
These words didn't leave Du Chensheng with any face, and Du Chensheng's face suddenly turned as black as the bottom of a pot.
When Du Yunyi, father and son, heard that the mountain chief of the academy wanted to accept Du Jinning as an apprentice, their eyes widened one by one.
They were in the city, and they couldn't be more aware of the situation at the academy.
Lishui County is just a academy, and it is also funded by the big officials in Beijing, and the teachers are also very good, even in the entire provincial capital. It can be said that as long as the academy is willing to accept you, then you can be regarded as stepping into the ranks of talents with one foot. The private schools run by those fallen talents are not even comparable to a single cold hair in the academy.
Du Jincheng and Du Jinde have been studying for so many years, and they want to enter the academy. asked Du Yunchang several times to let him be introduced. But after all, because of their poor qualifications and poor grades, Du Yunchang had already done his best to help, and they still couldn't get in.
There is no way to even be an ordinary student, let alone let the mountain chief take a fancy to him and accept him as a personal disciple.
That's the Guan family, the younger brother of the official in Beijing, how many people want to slap him. can get a compliment from him, the probability of Zhongxiucai is much greater, after all, the county magistrate also has to look at his face, right? Not to mention his personal disciples.
Unexpectedly, Du Jinning, who was like a transparent person in the Du family and had no sense of existence at all, actually fell into the eyes of the head of Boyue Academy.
Thinking of this, Du Jincheng and Du Jinde's eyes were red.
Du Yunyi especially thought that he had misheard, and asked: "Uncle, are you saying that the mountain chief has taken a fancy to Du Jinning and wants to accept him as an apprentice?" ”
"Isn't it? The kid was reciting, he wanted to worship Mr. Huang Chengming as a teacher, but the mountain chief didn't allow it, and wanted to accept him as an apprentice, and also said that he would go to the academy to study after the New Year. ”
Speaking of this, Du Yinsheng paused, turned his head and glared at Du Chensheng again: "But your father said that there is no money!" ”
Du Yunyi and Du Jincheng looked at Du Chensheng again.
Du Chensheng's face was very ugly, and he said with a straight face: "Isn't this a fact?" Forty or fifty taels a year, how can I get so much money for him to study? He turned to Du Yunyi, "Can you take it?" ”
