The next day, the matter between Song Shi and the Song family spread in the village, and everything was said. This brings to the fore the benefits of living on the edges.

Plus it's cold and windy.

I didn't stand outside for a while, and it was so cold that even the hot and fragrant melons couldn't stop the cold.

To be reasonable, it's not good to eat melons when you have a cold wind.

Song Shi told the eldest girl to usually move in the yard and not to go out if she had nothing to do, and sent things to the village chief and neighbors, and didn't want them to keep an eye on them, just come over occasionally to have a look.

Winter is here.

He had to hunt for money.

There is basically nothing left on the outskirts of the mountain, and if you want to have a big harvest, you have to go inside.

Of course, the slag is not unwalked.

He has encountered both wolves and bears, and it is really fateful to be able to survive until he is finally sent away by the Song family in advance.

It can only be said that life should not be in the hands of wild beasts.

Song Shi sharpened his knife in the yard all afternoon, checked the bow and arrow rope, and went out the next morning, before dawn.

He walked for three days.

I came back exhausted.

A few girls were happy and distressed, cooking with boiling water, and Song Shi fell asleep when he was full of food and drink.

A few days later, I went out again.

Until it snows.

The mountains are dangerous, and the snow is even more dangerous in the mountains.

Fortunately, he prepared charcoal early, bought a lot of durable grain from the town, cut the meat, hung it on the beams of the house to dry, and on snowy days, the family sat in the hall with the door closed and roasted and ate.

The red lotus is sweet, soft and glutinous, and melts in the mouth.

From the big girl to the little girl, they love to eat.

It's also sad.

This thing is very common in Baishan Village, it is not unusual at all, and it is not valuable, Rao is such a thing, Song Mu does not allow them to eat it, saying that it is a waste of food.

Song Shi asked the blacksmith in the town to make a stove, which could bake cakes and bake sweet potatoes inside, and boil water to fry eggs outside.

The blacksmith also gave him two taels of silver to buy out the style.

He took it.

I went to the market to buy flour, eggs, and candy seeds.

The winter is long, so don't prepare more food, how can you survive.

He has prepared all the things for the winter here, and the Song family will be miserable.

The wind blew so hard that it was mixed with snow particles, and it hit people in the face so badly that they wanted to close the door as soon as they opened.

But no.

Song Er took a sip, resigned himself to the snow wind and walked out, today is the day of the old man's rest, it rained last night, and it began to snow this morning, it was so cold, the two old ones had to ask him to go to the village entrance to pick up, saying that he was worried that the old man was weak and wrestling, and let him take a thick cotton coat...

Thinking of this, Song Er wanted to scold again.

He himself has been wearing this tattered cotton coat for several years, and the dead cotton is not warm at all.

But his mother said that she wouldn't do anything for him.

also persuaded him to be generous, saying that when the old man has a future, let alone a cotton coat, he will no longer be able to wear gold and silver.

Hmph, that's still a matter of saying!

If it weren't for this, the old man would want to read and dream!

A gust of wind blew in his face, Song Er shivered, and hurriedly wrapped his cotton clothes and walked quickly towards the entrance of the village.

Holy damn it, do you dare to be colder again!

Damn!

Soon arrived at the entrance of the village.

Along the way, I didn't see anyone.

Also normal.

It's freezing on this day, and everyone is hiding from the fire at home.

Only he ran outside like a fool to blow the cold wind.

"Ache! Ache! ”

Song Er sneezed twice, quickly stomped his feet, and found a leeward place to hide, feeling weak in his heart, grass, you won't get the wind cold, you have to drink a bowl of ginger soup to go back in a while.

He waited a quarter of an hour before he saw a figure in the distance.

"Little brother! Younger brother! ”

When he could see the face, he shouted.

Song Yu walked over quickly, "Second brother." ”

His face was a little pale, and he took the cotton coat and hurriedly put it on, "Let's go." ”

Of course Song Er knew to go quickly.

Isn't this waiting for you.

The two didn't say anything all the way, and when they walked outside the courtyard, they smelled the smell of meat.

Song Er sniffed hard, and then looked at the little brother next to him again, at least the little brother would make meat to eat when he came back.

For dinner, I cut a small piece of bacon and stewed a pot of vegetables, and specially fried a plate of fried bacon with chili peppers, all of which were full of salt, and a large pot of red weed multigrain rice was eaten cleanly.

After eating a full meal, the chill dissipated a lot.

Song Er looked in a certain direction and hooked the corners of his mouth, "I don't know if the eldest brother has eaten?" ”

got a slap from Song's mother.

He hurriedly apologized with a smile, "Phew! I said it wrong, then I wouldn't be from our old Song family for a long time! ”

Song Mu snorted coldly, "Don't think about such irrelevant people, he was going to leave by himself in the first place, so he should bear it himself." ”

Old man Song didn't speak, turned his head and asked Song Yu, "How are you reading the book?" How sure are you? ”

When the table was quiet, they all pricked up their ears to listen.

Song Yu took a sip of hot water and smiled confidently, "Don't say ten points, there are also seven or eight points." ”

Old man Song was overjoyed.

"That's good, that's good."

I also asked about other classmates in the college.

When he learned that he was not as good as his son, and that his son was even more valued by his master, he was overjoyed and smiled so much that his face wrinkled into a flower.

Mother Song looked at the second son and the third son, glanced at the two daughters-in-law, and snorted coldly, "I know that you are dissatisfied with my partiality with my old man, just looking at my son's achievements in the future, he is worth it, if you have the ability to glorify your ancestors, I will also treat them equally." ”

None of the four dared to let go of a fart.

I have to lick my face and smile, "Yes, what my mother said is that the younger brother has a future, and our brother and sister-in-law will also be stained." ”

Seeing her son and daughter-in-law express their attitude, Song's mother bowed her head, "Count your acquaintances, otherwise, like some white-eyed wolves with shallow eyelids, you will regret going when the time comes." ”

"Yes, yes."

Song Yu stayed at home for two days and then returned to the academy.

in the house.

Mother Song held the wooden box with a sad face.

"What's the fuss? What do you do in the house without washing your feet and using a pestle? Old man Song walked in and frowned.

"Old man."

Mother Song sighed, "That's all there is to lose." ”

Old man Song leaned over and took a look, and his heart instantly had a number, and his brows furrowed even deeper, "That's all?" He looked at her suspiciously, "Are you subsidizing your mother's family again?" ”

Mother Song: ...

I was so angry that I almost didn't spit out a mouthful of old blood.

What do you mean!

Is that kind of person in your heart?

"Old man! I'm not that indiscriminate person, now that it's time to use money, how can I spend my family's money indiscriminately! ”

Subsidies or something...

Well, it's been a long time since I've given money to my eldest brother and sister-in-law, and I don't know if my mother's family has eaten meat this winter.

Old man Song snorted coldly, "Then why do you say that there is less silver, I don't have a place to spend silver, in the past, the copper plate in this box alone was a small half box, and a silver horn can be added every once in a while." ”

"That's not the silver that the boss went hunting and selling, and now at home..."

Mother Song paused when she said this.

Her eyes widened, "Old man..."

Old man Song was also stunned.

After thinking about it, he shook his head, "No, the boss will hunt, pheasants and rabbits can be sold for a few bucks." ”

He denied it.

In fact, I have a clear understanding of the family's financial resources.

But now, it's irretrievable.

"Then what should I do, I will have to take the exam in the future, this little money at home can't support it at all, and the second and third children can't be trusted!"

Mother Song was in a hurry.

Old man Song pondered for a moment, "I heard that the bookstore in the town can copy books, but it really can't be done, so I can only let my son copy books for some silver." ”

Mother Song: "Copying books? ”

Her voice was raised in disbelief.

"My son is going to be a big official, how to do this kind 、、、of lowly and lowly work!"

"If he doesn't have any money, let alone being an official, he won't even have to read!" After Old Man Song finished speaking, he sighed again, "Who let him be born in a family like ours." ”

However, if you are not in your house, you will not be able to dream of glory and wealth. (End of chapter)
