Chapter 231: Reading

Wucheng, Maogouli.

In the evening, workers in twos and threes walked towards their homes with tools.

"Eldest brother, after you came back last time, the government directly promoted you to be the township leader, rewarded you with hundreds of acres of land, countless money and grain, and two subordinate concubines at home. What are you doing when you are not at home to enjoy your blessings, and you have worked so hard to build roads? The thin man asked.

Although money is given for road construction, it is very small, and it can only ensure a little bit of food left.

Although for the vast majority of civilians, this is already a benevolent government, but for a person with a little bit of assets, he can't afford to work hard from morning to night for this money.

"Naigong can eat too much, others eat steamed buns for three days, Naigong and I ate it in one meal, and I am reluctant to open it at home, so I can only let go of it when I come to build roads. The restaurants in the government are full, and I don't lose money, brothers, and I can save a little bit. The eagle touched his belly and said.

They all came from poor days, and even if they are rich now, they are reluctant to spend.

"Well, too, for those of us, it is a little bit to be able to save a little." The thin man sighed.

"Besides, it's almost winter, save some money to buy a pair of shoes for the doll to wear, and you can't just shrink at home in winter. By the way, your sister-in-law is happy again, I hope I can give birth to a girl for Naigong this time, if there is another boy, Naigong will really be tired to death. ”

The eagle was complaining, but the smile on his face could not be concealed no matter what.

"Congratulations, big brother."

"Congratulations, big brother."

……

When everyone heard this, they all bowed their hands and said goodbye.

"What the eldest brother said is right, when the next war is fought and the government will recruit soldiers, I must go to the battlefield to earn a reputation and come back, so as not to be bullied by my doll in the future." The thin man clenched his fists and said solemnly.

"San'er, you don't even have a mother-in-law, where did you get the doll?" Everyone laughed loudly.

"You laugh at me so much, although I don't have a mother-in-law now, it doesn't mean that I won't have it in the future, you wait, and when I go home, let my mother ask someone to say goodbye, just ...... Let's just talk about the girl in Hedong. San'er stretched his neck and said urgently.

"By the way, eldest brother, a few days ago, we went together to participate in the selection of soldiers, and you were selected alone, did the government send someone to inform you later?" One asked suddenly.

"I heard that the soldiers who passed the selection this time are all paid by the military, even if they don't go to the battlefield, they have money and food every month, and there are subordinates at home to help farm the land." One said enviously.

"We just passed the first round, and the second round will go to Handan to participate, and the specific time has not been announced, and the county lieutenant said that he will take us there at that time. It is said that General Lian Po and General Le Yi will personally select soldiers to form a corps, and their military salary is second only to Zhao Feicai. Naigong's goal is to join General Le Yi's legion. The eagle patted his chest and said.

His force is not very strong, and he was eliminated when he was selected for the pro-guards, but he has a good archery skill, and he is still very confident in passing the selection of the shooting battalion.

"Huh? Big brother, look, there is a horse parked in front of your house, and there is a group of people surrounding the door, and the village elders and the chief seem to be there. San'er suddenly pointed to the front and said.

"Such a majestic war horse, I'm afraid they are more than seven feet tall."

"When I was in the party, I heard an old man say that a horse over six feet is a horse, seven feet or more is a horse, and eight feet or more is a dragon. This is not a dragon, but it is the most majestic. ”

Everyone said in shock.

Zhao Guo had many horses, but it was the first time they had seen such a majestic war horse.

"Could it be that you are here to invite the eldest brother?" San'er said excitedly, as if he was the one who was invited.

"Don't talk nonsense, I guess there's something else." The eagle's face was solemn, and he hurried towards his home.

Such a majestic war horse, also equipped with stirrups and saddles, only Zhao Feiqi and the pro-guard army in Zhao State are this configuration, no matter who it is, it shows that there is something very important.

"The beloved is back!" Qiang saw the eagle approaching at a glance.

"Father." When the two little ones saw their father, they twisted their buttocks excitedly and ran towards their father, and suddenly threw themselves into their father's arms.

"You're the Eagle?" Zhao Feiqi looked at the eagle and asked.

"This Shangguan is an eagle below." The eagle lowered the two children to the ground and arched his hands.

"You should have heard about Handan Academy, right?" Zhao Feiqi said.

"I've heard of it." Eagle said.

After all, this is not a remote grassland, and the news has long been spread everywhere by merchants who come and go.

"Because of your outstanding performance on the battlefield before, the king will reward you with a place to enter Handan Academy to study, which is limited to you and your immediate family, and it is forbidden to buy and sell and transfer." Zhao Feiqi said.

"Entering Handan College to study?" The eagle suddenly became extremely excited.

This is literacy, and since ancient times it has been something that only nobles can do.

Even during the Warring States Period, knowledge sank, but who were those celebrities who were civilians?

A nobleman who doesn't, and at worst is a down-and-out aristocrat.

However, now there is a chance for the eagle to read!

"Not bad." Zhao Feiqi smiled and nodded.

"What can I learn?" Eagle asked.

"You can learn anything, and the time comes, the choice is yours."

"Forget it, I'll leave it to the child." The eagle shook his head, although he also wanted to study, but he preferred to give this opportunity to the child.

He also wanted to make some more contributions and fight for a place for the second child to study.

"Boss." At this time, Qiang tugged at the sleeve of the eagle and whispered.

"What's wrong?" Eagle asked.

"The child is still young, or ...... You can use this place. Qiang whispered.

The eagle is not very old, only in his early twenties. Commoner families got married early and had children at an early age.

"What about the kid?" Eagle said.

"After you read and write, you will definitely be able to make greater contributions, are you afraid that your children will not be able to read? Even if you can't get into the academy, you can teach them yourself. Qiang said.

"What my mother-in-law said is reasonable." Xiongying nodded and looked at Zhao Feiqi, "May I ask this brother, I have already participated in the conscription selection, if I pass the assessment, can I still go to Handan Academy to study again?" ”

He made up his mind that if he could only choose one of the two, he would go to participate in the selection of the shooting camp, give up the quota to his son, and then find a way to win a place for the second baby and the child in the mother-in-law's womb.

"It's said that you can, but if you have to participate in the legion training and study at the same time, it will be very hard." Zhao Feiqi said.

"I'm not afraid of hard work." The eagle patted his chest and said.

"It's up to you. This is the notice, bring the notice and household registration to Handan College to register within one month. Zhao Feiqi took out a paper notice from his horse bag and handed it to the eagle.

"Thank you, brother!" The eagle took the notice, picked up the two children, and yelled excitedly, "I'm going to study!" Your dad is going to study. ”
