Chapter 15: It's shameless
Xiang Xi pretended not to understand, plucked out his ears and said, "Don't say those bells and whistles that people can't understand, just tell me directly, how much you earn and how much you can give me." ”
"I'll earn a tael of silver and give you a penny." Liu Yuanyuan looked at her with your expression, which is already very advantageous.
One tael of silver is a thousand yuan, and one thousandth of a thousand is naturally a penny.
"I'll give you money, and you will only share my pennies if you earn a tael of silver, do you say it's good to see it yourself?" Xiang Xi rolled her eyes directly, she was so angry that she didn't want to invest money, "I save money more than I make it for you." ”
"How can you be so greedy, we are a family, shouldn't you help me? If the money bank is willing to lend me money, I still need to find you? ”
"Liu Yuanyuan, I found you very shameless, it's like you treat us as relatives when you have a problem that you can't solve, and when you have no problem, you are enemies." Xiang Xi looked her up and down, his eyes full of disdain.
Sure enough, Liu Yuanyuan couldn't stand her eyes, slapped on the table, and stood up with a brush, "You just came to see my jokes, I know that you are uneasy and kind, go quickly, and when I earn money in the future, I want me to share it with you, dream!" ”
Xiang Xi smiled and said, "Hey, where do I need you to give me silver, I have my husband to support me, don't worry, I don't have to do anything to live a good life, you go slowly." ”
"I don't know how to enterprising, just like you, sooner or later you will be suspended, I wait to see what happens to you." Liu Yuanyuan was so angry that she didn't choose to speak, and quarreled with Xiang Xi again.
"That's embarrassing, my life is good." Xiang Xi went back.
Liu Yuanyuan looked down on Xiang Xi more and more, feeling that she was a woman with hands and feet, and she only wanted to live on men, she just wanted to do business and make money quickly, so as to slap Xiang Xi in the face, let her see her ability, and after the quarrel, she left home and went to find capital.
Xiang Xi didn't take Liu Yuanyuan's words to heart at all, she was so self-conscious, it was normal to say these words.
She was going to go back to the house to rest, but when she passed by Gao Yun's house, she saw that he was still writing hard inside, Xiang Xi curiously walked to the window to look, and saw Gao Yun copying books rigorously, with beautiful handwriting, without a single ink group, and the content copied was the common three-character scripture.
"Third brother." Xiang Xi had some ideas and called him softly.
Gao Yun stopped in a hurry, almost ruined the book he had just copied half, and looked up and asked glutinously, "Sister-in-law?" Do you have something to do with me? ”
"How much silver is your manuscript?" Xiang Xi asked.
Gao Yun didn't know why, so he replied honestly, "Three hundred texts in one book." ”
"I want to buy some manuscripts, recognize a little words, and your eldest brother, I can study when I have time, you can't be a reader, your eldest brother can't read a single word, how can I continue to support you in the future?" Xiang Xi said casually.
Gao Yun stammered, very shocked, "Sister-in-law, don't you dislike me for spending a lot of money on my studies?" ”
"Why dislike it, you can change the door at home, and when you are admitted to Xiucai, the fields at home can be tax-free, just because of the reputation of your scholar, no outsiders will easily bully us, besides, if you don't study, our family can only be a hard-working person for the rest of your life, it's not interesting, if the family can't earn silver, food and clothing are problems, and you really shouldn't go to study extravagantly, but this is obviously not the case at home, you can study with peace of mind, relax, you think, you can earn more silver by reading well." Xiang Xi looked at his pitiful eyes, with some sympathy, this child was probably frightened by Liu Yuanyuan's attitude in the past few days.
Gao Yun's eyes slowly lit up, "Sister-in-law, thank you, I will study hard." ”
"In fact, the experience of these days is also good for you, after all, even if you don't experience it at home, you will encounter some things that affect your mood in the school, you have a good attitude, you can be more stable during the exam, and you will not be so nervous that you forget all your knowledge as soon as you arrive at the test center, you still have to learn."
"Sister-in-law, you're right, it's me who wants to be crooked." Gao Yun blushed a little, and looked at Xiang Xi's eyes with some surprise, curious about the change in her temperament, and the remarks he said were something he had never thought of before.
"You're going to study in town tomorrow, aren't you?"
"Yes, I'm going to the academy tomorrow." Gao Yun nodded and said hurriedly, "Sister-in-law, I'll give it to you after I finish copying the three-character scripture, I can't ask for any silver for my own manuscript, and I only need to spend some paper money, which is much more suitable than going to the bookstore to buy it." ”
In the evening, Xiang Xi got the three-character scripture copied by Gao Yun, she insisted on giving him money for the book, which was indeed a lot cheaper, Gao Yun insisted that her sister-in-law wanted to help him, so she would buy the three-character scripture, and privately found an opportunity to pull Goldman Sachs and stammered a basket of thanks.
Goldman Sachs cleaned up and returned to the house, and saw that Xiang Xi was already lying on the bed, he walked over to sit down by the bed, and asked, "Xiaoxi, why did you ask the third brother to buy the three-character scripture?" ”
Xiang Xi smiled and said, "Of course I want to be literate, I see my second brother and sister can write during the day, I can't let her have a chance to get in front of me, not to mention that with me being so smart, I will definitely learn to read quickly, so Xianggong, are you tired, are you tired, let's recognize it first?" ”
Goldman Sachs stretched out his hand and pressed her forehead to lie down excitedly, "It's dark this day, and using an oil lamp at night is not good for your eyes, and if you want to read and write, you will come back tomorrow." ”
"Oh, Xianggong, are you literate?" Xiang Xi was lying flat with him, the hour was still early, and he couldn't sleep at all, so he simply communicated with each other.
Gao Sachs lay beside him in a regular manner, "I know some, but I haven't read the Three Character Sutra before, and I only know the names of some medicinal herbs." ”
"Will you write that Xianggong?"
"No, it wasn't written on paper."
"Then let's start practicing reading and reading together tomorrow, it happens that the farmers are idle in winter, and there is time, so as not to be deceived by people who are illiterate when they go out in the future, and it is a good thing to increase their knowledge." Xiang Xi is very positive.
Goldman Sachs only said, "Literacy is no problem, practicing calligraphy is a waste of paper, ink, pen and ink." ”
"It doesn't matter, I still have three taels of silver, which is enough for us to buy some ordinary paper, ordinary brushes, and the cheapest ink blocks." Xiang Xi said busily.
"Three taels of silver? You didn't work with your second sibling? Goldman Sachs was a bit of a surprise.
Xiang Xi rolled her eyes first, "She's too stingy, and she's not sincere, she only gives me a penny if she earns a thousand taels, according to this calculation, she has to earn a thousand taels of silver to give me one tael, and I want to get three taels of silver back to earn her three thousand taels!" ”
"What is the concept of three thousand taels, our family can't earn that much in our lifetime at the moment, she is simply fooling me, I have to agree to have a ghost."
Goldman Sachs frowned, as if he didn't expect this kind of grievance to be in it, he listened to Xiang Xi's anger, thought about it, reached out and patted her on the back, "It's okay, don't be angry, you just keep the silver for your own flowers, the second brother and sister's affairs, if you want to take care of it, the second brother will take care of it, don't you want to be literate, go to bed early, and we will be together early tomorrow morning." ”
