In the context of the general failure of grain harvests, it should be possible to alleviate this pressure if we can purchase more industries.

So taking advantage of the chatting after dinner, the Yun family mentioned this idea to Wei Ruo.

"Ruo'er, I heard that the Xie family has purchased some land outside the city, so it is better for our family to buy some as well."

Wei Ruo calmly took a sip of tea and replied, "Yes, if my mother wants to buy it, she just needs to go to the Daoxian Ya to register." ”

"I mean, I hope you can be in charge of improving production, this improvement wasteland is still the best at you, and those people in the government also learned the technology from you." Yun explained.

"My mother suggested that I shouldn't refuse, but recently my husband has assigned me a lot of homework, and the only free time I have left is to discuss the next work with the people of the county government and Mama Qin, so I really don't have any extra time." Wei Ruo replied.

In the past, it was the Yun family who urged Wei Ruo to go to school and not toss things in the fields; Now the situation is just the other way around, she wants Wei Ruo to toss things in the field, but Wei Ruo is busy with class.

Immediately afterwards, Wei Ruo sighed again and said: "The matter of reading is really bothering, and Mr. Wang has a lot of content to talk about; I'm a half-way monk, and it's very difficult to keep up. Now most of my mind is spent on this, if it weren't for the fact that I really don't have the mental strength, my mother opened her mouth today, and I should have to share my mother's worries and solve problems. ”

Wei Ruo's rhetoric was sincere and reasonable, and people couldn't find fault with it.

The Yun clan didn't know how to refute Wei Ruo's words for a while.

The Yun clan was still thinking about it, and Wei Yichen spoke first: "Mother, if you should focus on your studies, if you want to buy wasteland in the south of the city for improvement and cultivation, just hire someone to do it, and now that there are people from the government to help, it is the same to ask them if you have any questions." ”

When it came to this, Yun had to nod: "Yichen is right, Ruo'er should indeed focus on his studies." ”

Immediately afterwards, Yun changed the topic, turned to Wei Yichen and said, "Yichen, how is the matter of your apprenticeship?" ”

The Wei family has been worried about this matter for more than half a year.

In the past few years, Wei Yichen has been studying in the county academy, but last year, the gentleman of the academy told Wei Yichen that there was nothing left to teach him, telling him that if he wanted to go further before the imperial examination, he still needed to go to a better academy or worship a more prestigious master.

Xingshan County is located in a remote area, and Mo said that there is no nearby, and there is no farther away.

And those prestigious academies and academies are not ordinary people who can enter if they want to, the Wei family only has the titles handed down from their ancestors, and the rest are to have connections and no connections, financial resources and no financial resources, and it is very difficult to enter those good academies.

In contrast, it will be relatively easy to worship a good teacher, and if you meet someone who has a discerning eye and appreciates Wei Yichen's talent, it will be easier to get things done.

And there is a famous teacher, which is also very helpful for Wei Yichen to enter Beijing for the exam in the future.

Wei Yichen frowned: "I'm sorry mother, there hasn't been much progress yet." ”

"Yichen, if you really can't worship the teacher you want, then retreat and ask for less." Yun had to persuade, "Time waits for no one, if it drags on any longer, my mother is afraid that it will delay your study." ”

"Mother, this matter is not child's play, once the teacher worships, he will be a teacher for one day and a father for life, and he must not regret it, and the son feels that he should be more cautious." Wei Yichen replied.

"Well, you have an idea, and my mother is just a little worried, and in the end it is up to you to make the decision." Yun Shi Dao.

Wei Ruo, who was drinking tea, listened to the conversation between the two, and suddenly remembered that the second brother had been in his small courtyard all these years, and had never been to the school or worshiped the teacher.

The second brother said before, and now he also wants to test his fame, so shouldn't he also think of a way for the second brother?

The eldest brother's affairs are to be worried about by the family, Wei Ruo doesn't need to worry about it, but the second brother's affairs are only for her to help think of a way.

After leaving Cangyun Garden, Wei Ruo, who returned to Tingsong Garden, asked Xiumei: "Meimei, do you know which is the best academy in Taizhou Mansion?" ”

"Miss, what are you asking the academy for? Seowon is a place where men go to study, and I have not heard of a seowon where women can go to study. ”

"I didn't go by myself, I asked for my second brother."

"Then miss, wait for me, I'll find someone to ask!"

Where does Xiumei know this, she doesn't care about these things on weekdays, but if Miss asks, then she must ask her about it.

There is a designated person in the school captain's mansion who knows about this, because there is a young master who is studying in the mansion, and he will be somewhat contaminated with book ink.

Xiumei asked Wei Ruo the results after a while, there are three most famous academies in the entire Taizhou Mansion, namely Fangyan Academy, Tongjiang Academy and Anzhou Academy

However, these three academies have two problems, one is the distance, and the other is the high threshold.

Xingshan County is a small remote county town, far away from the bustling area of Taizhou Prefecture; What is even more difficult is that the three academies all have high requirements for students, and it is very difficult for ordinary students to enroll.

"Miss, these three academies are all very good, it's not that we help the second young master choose which academy to enter, but it depends on which academy is willing to let the people in our house go." Xiumei Road.

"If the academy is not successful, then there should be a way to apprentice......"

Wei Ruo thought about it carefully and had an idea in his heart.

###

June has passed in a hurry, and it has arrived in the seventh month of the lunar calendar in a blink of an eye.

In the past few days, Xingshan County has been relatively peaceful, during which the army reinforced by the imperial court passed through the city and went to the east of the city, making people wonder whether the battle on the east coast was fierce.

The land improvement in the south of the city is also in order, because after the harvest is owned, those people work very hard, and many of them sleep directly next to the reclaimed land.

The seventh day of the seventh lunar month. This is one of the few days of the year when a girl's family can go out together without being accompanied by the elders of the family.

Wei Ruo and Xie Ying made an appointment to celebrate the Begging Festival together.

Before going out, Xiumei made a lot of Qiaoguo for Wei Ruo, packed them in a delicate food box, and gave them to Wei Ruo and Xie Ying to eat later.

Just as she was about to be discharged from the hospital, Wei Qingwan suddenly appeared.

"Sister, I heard that you are going to go to the Qiqiao Festival with Miss Xie, and I want to go with you too, is that okay?" Wei Ruo asked cautiously.

Wei Qingwan also wanted to be with Wei Ruo, so she came to Wei Ruo when Wei wanted to go out.

"No, you can't." Wei Ruo decisively refused.

"Why? Is my sister still angry with me? There were some things that I didn't do well before, and I apologized to my sister and begged her to give me a chance to make amends, okay? Wei Qingwan bit her lip.
