Chapter 432: A quarrel
This incident really made Mrs. Cheng embarrassed.
After thinking about it, she still wrote a letter to her mother, and at the same time wrote a letter to her eldest brother, which mentioned some of the words and deeds of the Xu family in the capital, and she repeatedly said that if she had the ability, she would help her relatives, but the premise was that she had to wait until San Lang really had the ability.
The eldest brother received the letter and knew that this time it was difficult for his sister to do.
And the letter also said that in the end, Cheng Jingzhou was overwhelmed, so he had no choice but to beg Master Xie with a cheeky face, and then the matter was done.
Mrs. Cheng didn't know what they said later, but since then, her mother's family has exchanged letters with her more frequently, but she rarely mentions helping.
After this incident, Cheng Jingzhou also realized the importance of power, of course, he is not the kind of person who will do anything for power, but within the scope of his ability, he still hopes that he can get the greatest benefit.
After Cheng Wulang studied at the White Crane Academy, he naturally got acquainted with Zhao Jiajun, who was also from Gaoyang County, and it was at this time that he knew that the two of them were both talents, and now they were far away in the capital, and the two of them were also fellow villagers.
Cheng Wulang doesn't know this Zhao Jiajun, but Zhao Jiajun knows the Cheng family, and he knows Cheng Jingzhou, the champion.
Zhao Jiajun's senses for Cheng Jingzhou are a little complicated, he always feels that Cheng Jingzhou should not have such achievements as he has now, how can he be the champion?
But that's the case, Zhao Jiajun also knows that he can't change anything, but when he dreams back at midnight, he always feels that the person who rides on a tall horse and is sought after by everyone should be right.
He couldn't explain this feeling, and he didn't dare to reveal it to anyone, otherwise others would think that he had hysteria, or that he was jealous of Cheng Jingzhou.
Although he is indeed a little jealous of Cheng Jingzhou, he absolutely can't admit it.
Befriending Cheng Wulang was something Zhao Jiajun didn't expect.
Who knew it could be such a coincidence?
Zhao Jiajun is older than Cheng Wulang, so he considers himself a brother, Cheng Wulang also feels that this person is still very solid in learning, but he may read a little less, and if it is an endorsement, he feels as if he is faster than this Zhao brother.
In fact, this is normal, the Cheng family is also the number one person in Gaoyang County, it is a real scholarly family, and the collection of books at home is not comparable to a farmer like Zhao Jiajun.
You must know that Xie Xiuwen also came to the door many times to ask for advice, which shows that the Cheng family has a certain background.
The two intersected, in fact, they also felt that they were not only fellow villagers, but they were far away, and they should take care of each other, and besides, the living standards of the two in the academy were basically the same, so they could be regarded as able to move forward side by side.
Wang Ximeng has been tinkering with fat powder since she was in addition to the restaurant for a while, but the grade she made was a little low, and she could only sell it in some low-end shops in the outer city, but Wang Ximeng felt that it was not bad.
She is now wondering if she can save some money, and then put some fields near the suburbs of Beijing, if she wants to move her household registration, she still needs to have land.
Of course, with their current identity and background, it is impossible to move to the household registration of the capital, they do not meet the conditions, and they have no connections, so they will not do it for them.
Zhao Jiajun now only has 80 acres of tax exemption in his name, which has been arranged in his hometown, and if he buys land again, he will have to pay taxes normally, which cannot be avoided.
Wang Ximeng ran outside four or five times in a row, but failed to find a suitable field.
The main reason is that the price of land in the suburbs of Beijing is too high, and she doesn't have much silver in her hand, so she can only buy ten acres of land in the sky.
"Mrs. Wang, it's not that we don't help, it's just that you want too little. Our tooth shop is usually a large grange of hundreds of acres and thousands of acres, and we really have no news about these ten acres of land, so you should go to another house to have a look."
Wang Ximeng also knew that people were telling the truth, so he flattered him: "What you said is that we did buy less. We're not in a hurry, just to see when you get the letter, just remember to let me know."
"Cheng, we'll keep an eye on it for you.
」
Wang Ximeng smiled, she also knew that this was just a kind word.
This kind of tooth shop is a big business, ten acres of land, how much can people draw even if they take a cut?
However, they also reminded her that she could go to the countryside and ask by herself, find some Lizheng or the village chief to inquire, if they have land in their hands and are willing to sell, it is still possible, and it can save some processes in the middle.
Wang Ximeng really went to the countryside to ask, but she is not a local, and she is another woman, who to inquire with?
It was also at this time that Wang Ximeng realized how difficult it was for her to gain a foothold outside.
For example, when she went to the tooth store to inquire about the fields, people were not happy to talk to her at all.
It's just that the woman doesn't matter, if there is pomp and circumstance, this tooth shop is naturally happy to entertain.
But Wang Ximeng is here, at first glance, he is an ordinary person, and he doesn't have much money, so people are not rare to take care of you.
In desperation, Wang Ximeng could only send out a servant from her family to inquire, she was a woman, and it was not good to be away from home every day.
It's just that there is no land near the suburbs of Beijing that is too fragmentary, and even if there is, people don't sell it.
Therefore, the matter of buying land has been deadlocked.
Wang Xi's dream is to buy ten acres of land and rent it out, and the rest should be enough for their family to eat, after all, it is still too expensive to buy food in the capital.
But who would have thought that buying a land would be so difficult.
Wang Ximeng checked the account book again, and felt that it still didn't work.
In the past two months, the family's income has exceeded 100 taels, but there is no Zhao Jiajun who burns money!
This year's bundle plus pen, ink, paper, inkstone, etc., this alone costs two hundred taels of silver, not to mention that he still has to eat, treat, make new clothes, etc.
Wang Ximeng felt that after a long time, I was afraid that if Zhao Jiajun couldn't wait for Zhao Jiajun to be promoted in the exam, their family would have to eat their old books.
The amount of money that Wang Ximeng had saved in his hand was unwilling to move.
They also have a son, and the expenses will only be more in the future, so she forced herself to think of ways to make money.
But Zhao Jiajun doesn't know how to save some flowers here, and he has to pick a good ink to buy, so some of them can't write or what?
When Zhao Jiajun came back on this day, Wang Ximeng proposed to let him save some, and said that today's income is not so good, and they have to save some in case of emergency.
As a result, Zhao Jiajun blew up!
"Wang Ximeng, don't talk to me with such a condescending attitude. Yes, you do make money, but if it weren't for my dignity, you wouldn't want to think about how many people would be willing to take care of you! Not now
