Chapter 14: They Think! (4th Watch)
Chapter 14
Spring ploughing is coming –
The Li family only has three or four acres of land, mainly to accept other invitations, go to their house to help plant seedlings, and leave the little work at home to the female relatives of the family.
The mica itself is also going to go to the ground.
Yunxi was wearing clean clothes, full of disgust and didn't want to get close to the muddy field stalks, and shook his head: "No, I won't go, I will have stolen goods." ”
"Your stepfather is studying at home, and you don't have to share some of his work?!" Li's third daughter-in-law rolled her eyes.
"It's Grandpa Li and Grandma Li who said to let Uncle Li study, and it's not me, I won't go to the ground," Yunxi turned around and slipped away.
"Yun Pei, look at the good daughter you gave birth to! When the oil bottle is dragged, there is no consciousness of dragging the oil bottle at all! Look at her clean and tidy appearance, who is she pretending to be! "Li Lao's third daughter-in-law is very angry, she doesn't care that mica is the second sister-in-law, and she trains directly in front of so many people who are cultivating in the fields.
Mica looked in the direction where Yunxi left, burying her head and busily herself, as if she was deaf, and couldn't hear a sound from the outside world.
Li Laohan and Li Laohan bought paper, pens, etc., and spent a lot of money to buy books, just waiting for Li Xian to come out of his knowledge.
Li Xian was bored in the room, he couldn't sit still at all, subconsciously bit the brush head in his mouth, and looked outside.
Yunxi surrounded Li Xian's side, and praised him: "Wow, Uncle Li, your handwriting has improved so much, and if you work hard, you will be able to go to the bookstore to help people copy books!" When the time comes, you can earn 10 to 200 wen by copying a book...... This month's ...... I can learn and make money at the same time, think about it...... Why don't I have that much power? ”
Li Xian's eyes lit up: "Really? ”
"Yes."
Taking the test for talent can't be as simple as taking the test for children.
The children's test is to write silently and fluently, and to show talent, it is necessary to have a certain understanding of the knowledge they have learned, and they can also have their own opinions, write an article, evaluate the merits, and finally get the ranking.
And this word is also what the examiner should pay attention to, it can't, whoever becomes an official in the future, and the result is that the words are written, and the officials can't understand it, right?
Li Xian was praised, his floating heart stabilized, and he began to practice seriously.
***
Three months later –
Rice grows in the fields, and the Li family is busy, and they are busy every day, looking for short-term jobs to do work, and how much money can be earned.
What they couldn't accept the most was that they felt that soon after their money entered Mrs. Li's pocket, it would flow into Li Xian's hands in the name of buying books, pen and ink.
This made the other four rooms of the Li family unbalanced.
"Why?!"
Boss Li's daughter-in-law had better instigate it, and after three or five sentences, she rushed to the hall to reason with Mrs. Li.
"No, mother-in-law, I have three sons in my family! Why is the money my man earns for their second uncle to study?! Even if I want to study, it should be my own three sons, right?! ”
Boss Li's daughter-in-law said.
The daughters-in-law of the third, fourth, and fifth children nodded on the side, which was the daughter-in-law of Boss Li who they instigated.
Boss Li's daughter-in-law saw that her three younger siblings supported her, and her heart was full of confidence.
"Daddy, you can't be so unfair! Which of the five of us is not your son?! Li Lao's third daughter-in-law saw the stitches and said something.
Li Laohan and Mrs. Li didn't expect that the other four sons would object, and for a while, they didn't know what to do.
Yunxi was listening to the sound in the utility room on the edge of the hall.
She thought that Boss Li's daughter-in-law and they could endure it for a year and a half, but she didn't expect that it would occur in three months, which was much shorter than she expected.
