Without Ling Wuya's "aggressiveness", Ling Yan couldn't open his mouth a little.

"Brother Yan, say it quickly! You, you—"

Boss Ling was so anxious that he couldn't speak.

As a father, he is still aware of whether his son is serious about studying or not.

At most, he didn't know that his son, who was only thirteen years old, had already been hooked up with someone and contracted a gambling addiction.

Boss Ling only thought that his son had "taken" the money of his college classmates, or had "picked up" a windfall.

And this, too, is very dangerous.

Boss Ling knew that his son was not so hardworking, but he still hoped that his son could glorify his ancestors.

Even if he can't be admitted to the imperial examination in the future, he must find a way to coax his family to continue to provide for him to study.

There is a son who reads, and their whole house benefits.

For example, Boss Ling, who always claims to be a scholar's father, can hide from the rough work of going to the field on weekdays.

Another example is the second girl in the big house, who is fourteen years old this year, also because he has a younger brother who can read, obviously a peasant girl, but he is raised like a young lady.

The country matchmaker said that she was close, and she always said that Erya was not an ordinary village girl.

The younger brother of the family is studying in the county academy, and he will definitely be able to pass the top prize in the future.

…… It can be said that the entire big house can be transcendent in the Ling family, all because of a scholar.

Boss Ling and his wife's thoughts were very rough:

If the son really doesn't make it, even if he pretends to be, he must continue to pretend!

But once the bad thing is done and exposed, the true face of the son will be exposed, and then their family-

Almost in a flash of light, the eldest and his wife thought of so much.

"Brother Yan, say it quickly!"

Elder Ling and his wife were about to cry.

The people around him also urged, "Yes, yes! Ten taels of silver, it's not a small amount, Zhuangyuanlang, how did you get it? ”

Ling Yan knew that he couldn't be silent anymore.

Closing his eyes and gritting his teeth, Ling Yan said, "I won!" ”

He wasn't embarrassed to say the word "gamble".

It's better to win than to gamble.

Well, how can it be called "gambling" in the affairs of readers?

Ling Yan tried to play with words, but the shrewd Aunt Ling refused to agree.

In the past few years, she has been staring at Ling Yan, trying to find his fault.

Now that Ling Yan has sent the handle herself, Aunt Ling will naturally not let it go: "Won?" Oh my God, are you gambling? ”

The word gambling is absolutely terrifying.

The surrounding villagers were all frightened.

"Huh? Gambling? ”

"No, how old is Brother Yan?"

"Thirteen years old, not young, in our village, you can go to the field as half a laborer!"

"Yes, yes, you can kiss."

At the age of thirteen, it is not too big, but it is not too small.

Especially in rural areas, labor is needed, and children as young as three or four years old have to learn to collect firewood, feed chickens and ducks.

When you are seven or eight years old, you can follow your parents to the ground.

At the age of thirteen or fourteen, he can basically go to farm work on his own.

That is, Ling Yan is a scholar, and the Ling family did their best to provide him with study, not wanting him to waste his time, so they didn't ask him to go to the ground.

Not to mention the other thirteen or fourteen-year-old children in the village, even Ling Wu, who was three years younger than Ling Yan, had already started to work in the fields with his grandfather and father.

Why is Aunt Ling resentful, the obvious contrast between Ling Yan and Ling Wu is the biggest reason!

“…… I—I can't help it. ”

"You can't really let the family sell the fifth sister!"

Ling Yan sensed that the wind of public opinion was not in the right direction, and hurriedly reversed it, and he made a guilty appearance: "The family is difficult, but studying will cost money." ”

"I want to help my family share the burden, but, I really can't think of any other way-"

When everyone heard this, they couldn't help but nod.

Although a thirteen-year-old and a half-year-old child can work in the field.

However, it is very difficult to earn ten taels or even more silver.

Ling Yan's eyes and tone are very sincere, and he has the aura of the protagonist, which can drive emotions.

The people around me were somewhat persuaded.

Gu Qingcheng said coldly, "Why is there no way?" Big brother, you are a reader, I heard that even if a reader writes, he can sell it for money! ”

Doesn't Dafang always boast about how good his son is at reading and how powerful he is?

So why can't knowledge be exchanged for money.

In ancient times, the most common way for poor students to make money was to copy books or write letters on their behalf.

Maybe it's a little harder, but you can still make money.

After all, the ancient people were illiterate, and knowledge is money!

Ling Yan: ...... If I weren't the original owner, I would have copied books to make money.

But the problem is, I'm not.

I will whitewash the original owner.

And the original owner really gambled money, and it lasted for half a year.

Maybe not many people have heard about it, but it's not a secret after all.

If it is not dealt with in time, it will also explode in the future.

Ling Yan originally wanted to push this matter to make money, but it happened that he saved Ling Wuya in time.

Whitewashing + compensation is all taken into account, perfect!

It's just that-

"Yes, yes!"

Although Aunt Ling is shrewd, she is limited by her knowledge and insight.

Gu Qingcheng's words reminded Aunt Ling.

There is an old boy in her mother's village, who usually helps people read and write letters, helps keep accounts for red and white ceremonies, and writes couplets to people during the New Year......

There are all kinds of people, although they can't make a lot of money, they can also subsidize their families.

Ling Yan is not a child yet, but he is "powerful".

Dafang didn't say that he would definitely be able to get into the top prize.

Since they are all champions, why don't they make money by writing?

Do you have to gamble?!

Gambling money, that's terrible.

Nine out of ten bets are lost.

The Ling family tightened their belts for him to study, and as a result, he went to gamble.

And his own son, so smart, so eager to study, but always told by the family that there is no money and no money!

Of course, there is no money, the money has been squandered, where will there be money?!

As for Ling Yan's explanation: "Grandma! Parents! I—I'll bet on it this time! Aunt Ling didn't believe a word.

The first time?

Oh, the first time you know where the gambling house is going?

Do you know how to bet? How much more can you win than you can bet?

Let's fool you.

Aunt Ling was angry, and she also thought of pulling the alliance-

When she raised her eyes, she saw "Ling Wuya" with tears on her face, and a flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and Aunt Ling blurted out, "Could it be that you started last year?" ”

"What do you mean to give a gift? In fact, it is to take money to gamble? ”

"Oh, my poor four girls, you, you are so wronged!"

Gu Qingcheng silently gave Aunt Ling a thumbs up.

She knew that Aunt Ling was definitely a god teammate.

It was not in vain that she deliberately pulled her into the game.

In the original plot, Ling Wuya was sold, and the benefits were only obtained by the big house.

Sanfang has no interests entangled with the whole thing, and Aunt Ling is just watching the show.

Subsequently, Ling Yan took the money won back by twenty taels and became the hero who saved Ling Wuya.

Aunt Ling also wanted to have a seizure - whether Ling Wuya could be saved or not had nothing to do with her.

But Ling Yan gambled money, that was the big thing for the entire Ling family.

It's just that before Aunt Ling San's sudden output, Ling Yan generously said: "With these twenty taels of silver, the family can be more relaxed." ”

"Grandma, let the second brother also go to study."

The family got the benefits, the "gold master" was still Ling Yan, and Aunt Ling San shut up instantly.

Is gambling money bad?

Oops, that's the one who loses, but our brother has won.

Aunt Ling not only did not take advantage of this matter to spill, but also tried her best to help Ling Yan make up for it.

Relying on the twenty taels he won back, Ling Yan successfully washed his hands and successfully retained Ling Yan's transcendent position in the Ling family!

Gu Tingcheng: ...... Unfortunately, you may not be able to do so this time.

Because Gu Tingcheng shouted out that sentence, the benefactor who helped Ling Wu study changed from Ling Yan to her "Ling Wuya".

Let Aunt Ling know that even if there is no money that Ling Yan got back, Ling Wu can still study.

You can read it all the time!

Without the filter of "kindness", and without the worry of follow-up restraints, Aunt Ling can look at Ling Yan very meanly.

"Daddy! Mother! Look at it, this is your great grandson! ”

"The family even sold their children, just to provide him with education, but as a result, he went to gamble for money!"

"Bet, but we bankers dare to touch it?"

"For the first time? Bah! Full of lies! ”

"Let me say, the four girls were lost by your bet!"

Aunt Ling's combat effectiveness is absolutely fierce, scolding Ling Yan while crying Ling Siya.

Instead of being whitewashed, Ling Yan peeled off a layer of skin.

Boss Ling and his wife were also shocked.

No matter how much they wanted their son to disguise, they never thought of letting him gamble.

Because just as Aunt Ling San scolded, gambling really can't be touched.

Nine out of ten gambles are lost, and if you get it, your family will be ruined.

There is a bloody example in the next village, where they were landlords before, but because of the word "gambling", the fields handed down by their ancestors were gone, their wives ran away, and their children were sold.

In the end, the man was also chopped off by the debt collector thug, oops, the end is miserable!

Thinking of this, Boss Ling shuddered.

Or the eldest daughter-in-law reacts quickly, or rather, she spoils her baby son more.

She stepped forward, blocked in front of Ling Yan, and shouted at the top of her voice, "Didn't our brother Yan win?" ”

"Twenty taels! The five girls were also redeemed by my son! ”

What are you doing with Siya, they are all money-losing goods that have been sold.

It's Wuya, if it weren't for her brother's brother who came back in time, she would have been sold!

If you calculate it carefully, even if your son doesn't have credit, he can offset it.

The eldest daughter-in-law stalked her neck, completely looking like a bear parent.

"Phew!"

Aunt Ling is full of firepower, the key is that when she quarrels, her brain will not be short-circuited, and she can always play extraordinarily:

"You still have the face to say that the five girls, shouldn't you redeem the five girls?"

"If it weren't for the purpose of making money for Ling Yan, would my father and mother sell Wuya?"

"What poetry will be? What kind of son of the county family, I'm bah, this money, it must be Ling Yan who took it to gamble! ”

"And, winning a bet? What did he win with his bet? Gambling costs money—"

Lucky this time, the bet won!

But if you lose the gamble, it's all the money that the family saved by frugality.

Gu Qingcheng silently gave Aunt Ling a thumbs up again.

The executor in the small black room was dumbfounded......
