"It's okay! You have a solid foundation and great talent, so it is not a problem to be admitted to the show! Li Xiucai said.

It is difficult to take the exam, but it is different to take the exam, prepare well, and it is not difficult to get in.

Li Qingzhi can memorize the four books and five classics, and he will definitely be able to be admitted to Xiucai.

Thinking of this, Li Xiucai even said: "You don't have to pay seven taels, five taels is enough, I can't teach you much." ”

Li Xiucai's career is hopeless, and he wants to earn more money by teaching now.

Even so, he naturally hopes that there will be more talents among his students.

Li Qingzhi has solid basic skills, and he can go to the county examination institute to take the government examination with a little guidance, and he is embarrassed to charge too much money.

Of course, let him teach for free, that is not possible.

Li Qing thanked him with a smile, and said that he was afraid that he would not be able to study in the school every day. Li Xiucai still has no opinion on this, saying that Li Qing insists on going if he wants to, and he doesn't want to go.

Chatting and chatting, Li Xiucai also asked Li Qingzhi to make an article on the spot, and then commented.

Writing vernacular and writing articles on the imperial examination are two different things, and there are many problems with Li Qingzhi's articles.

But even so, his level is not low, Li Xiucai praised Li Qingzhi again and again, and it was lunch time in the blink of an eye.

Li Xiucai invited Li Qingzhi and Zhu Xunmiao to stay for dinner, but Zhu Xunmiao refused: "Sir, my father plans to invite Brother Li to dinner, and we are going back." ”

Zhu Qian didn't invite Li Qingzhi to dinner, Zhu Xunmiao said so, but he didn't want to stay.

It's not that he dislikes the food in Li Xiucai's house, it's really that there are too many people in Li Xiucai's family, and there are many young dependents, if they stay to eat, others will definitely be uncomfortable.

The two left when the smell of rice came from the Li family and returned to the Zhu family.

Zhu Qian was not at home, so Zhu Xunmiao had dinner with Li Qingzhi, and asked someone to call his younger brother: "My younger brother will also go to Mr. Li to study in a few days, and the three of us will be classmates at that time." ”

Zhu Xunxin came over with Zhao Mancang, and Li Qingzhi only looked at Zhao Mancang's face, and knew that Zhao Mancang must have been doing well during this time.

The kid is a little whiter and a little fatter,

It looks much cuter.

The Zhu family didn't have any rules, so Zhu Xunmiao asked Zhao Mancang to eat with them, and during the meal, several people chatted.

Li Qingzhi learned from Zhao Mancang that Zhao Mancang's father had visited Zhao Mancang's house several times, but after Zhao Mancang insisted that he had no money, he would not come.

"I save all the money I earn and don't give it to him, so as not to be spent by him," Zhao Mancang said to Li Qingzhi like a little adult, "I want to save more money, so that I can marry a daughter-in-law in the future, maybe I can still do business like my lord." ”

"Yes, don't give money to your father, it's better to save for your own daughter-in-law." Li Qingzhi laughed.

The little doll who is less than ten years old is thinking about marrying a daughter-in-law, which is quite fun.

What's even more interesting is that Zhu Xunxin followed up and spoke: "Then I will also save money in the future, and I will also marry a daughter-in-law in the future." ”

Zhu Xunmiao laughed when she heard this.

Zhu Xunxin asked Zhu Xunmiao puzzled: "Brother, why don't you have a daughter-in-law?" Is it because you haven't saved enough money? ”

Zhu Xunmiao: "......" He doesn't need to save money, if he wants to marry a daughter-in-law, his father will definitely give money!

No, he is only fifteen years old, what kind of daughter-in-law is he marrying? He plans to be admitted to Xiucai and marry again!

When Li Qing insisted that they were eating, Jin Xiaoye was also eating at Sister Wang's house.

The meals of the Zhu family are very rich, and the meals of Sister Wang's family are average.

Sister Wang's daughter is sixteen years old this year, her hands are very skillful, she fried a plate of eggs at noon today, and left a little egg in the pot, added water and small green vegetables to cook a green vegetable soup, plus a plate of steamed tofu with minced meat, this meal is not rich, but it is enough to eat.

They also talked while eating.

Jin Xiaoye's cover sleeves made of flawed cloth and the like sell well in Chongcheng County because of their low prices, but these things are low in price and don't make much money.

They can make money, mainly relying on those high-end products.

The colors of the fabrics given by the Zhu family are very bright, and Jin Xiaoye found someone to make all kinds of gadgets and send them to the ready-to-wear store for consignment, although they are not much, but the profits are large.

In addition, she also sold some to the foot traders, and she could make a lot of money here.

Not long ago, there was even a businessman who planned to go to the north next month to find Jin Xiaoye and gave a deposit to order a large number of goods!

When they sold these things in the county seat, they said that this was a pattern from the city, and the guests didn't doubt it at all.

This merchant bought their goods and sold them in the capital, and it can be said that this is a popular trick in the south, and it will definitely be sold at a good price in the capital.

Of course, this is not something they need to think about, they just need to make something and sell it to this merchant.

Sister Wang was very happy: "He wants a lot of goods, Xiaoye, we have to buy more fabrics." ”

Jin Xiaoye nodded: "Yes, I'll buy cloth tomorrow!" ”

Mrs. Xu was a little worried: "Xiao Ye, will that person deceive people?" If after we did, he suddenly didn't want ......"

The man gave a deposit, but it wasn't enough for them to buy fabric.

Jin Xiaoye said: "Even if that person is a liar, we should do it or do it, we can't give up such a big business because we are worried!" If he doesn't give the money later, we don't give him the goods, and we want to sell them ourselves. ”

Jin Xiaoye had actually considered various situations.

This person ordered a lot of things, and if she didn't want them later, she would have a large number of goods that she wouldn't sell.

But her things are selling well in Chongcheng County, which gives her a certain confidence, and she feels that if she really encounters something like that, she can take her goods and go to Fucheng to sell.

When Zhu Qian was doing business, he also encountered a backlog of goods that could not be sold, so he sold them in another place and sold them.

Jin Xiaoye was full of confidence, and Mrs. Xu was relieved when she saw this.

After eating, Sister Wang's daughter went to wash the dishes and brush the pots, and the others got together, chatting while cutting fabrics, and talked about the recent fact that no one came to pour night incense.

Sister Wang said: "Some people can't stand it, so they call a dung man who used to do this business to collect it, but the dung man was beaten by a person who made stinky money." ”

The businessman surnamed Zhang is named Zhang Yunquan, his name is very good, he is literate, martial, rich and powerful.

But he is not kind, and the people in the county hate him, and they think that he is making stinky money, so they call him Zhang Stinky Money.

Zhang Smelly Money didn't let people pour night incense, which made Sister Wang very annoyed, she was a clean person who didn't want to kill chickens, but now ...... Even if the toilet has a lid, it will smell like it, which is too uncomfortable!

Jin Xiaoye said: "People from our village went to buy Renzhonghuang, and the price went up...... What does Zhang Smelly Money want to do? You don't want to make money at both ends, do you? ”

Zhang stinky money doesn't come to collect Zhonghuang, and he doesn't allow others to accept it, what does he want to do?

Want the people in the city to spend money to beg him to collect?

"Xiao Ye, if you say that, it's really possible!" Sister Wang said.

The three of them looked at each other, and Jin Xiaoye scolded: "Zhang Stinky Money, this bastard thinks it's quite beautiful!" ”

There are so many people in Chongcheng County, if you have to give money, Zhang Stinky Money can make a lot of money every day while lying down!

This person can still sell for money......

It's just that they scold and scold in private, and they can't do anything else.

Jin Xiaoye could only say to Sister Wang: "Sister Wang, I'll help you take the toilet away when you catch up with Ming'er." ”

Sister Wang asked, "Won't it work today?" ”

Jin Xiaoye said: "Today, my father-in-law came to the county seat with me, and we will definitely go back together." ”

She is used to farm work, and emptying the toilet is nothing to her, but Li Qingzhi's words...... Li Qing is a scholar, and it is not good for him to take the boat with the toilet.

Hearing Jin Xiaoye say this, Sister Wang said, "Xiaoye, then please help take it tomorrow...... By the way, how is your father-in-law's arm? ”

"Much better." Jin Xiaoye always felt that Li Qingzhi's arm was getting better a little quickly, so he only said vaguely and didn't mention it much.

As he spoke, there was a knock at the door.

When Jin Xiaoye opened the door, he saw a tall, fair-skinned, very thin girl.

The girl looked at her twenties, opened a pair of misty eyes, and asked, "Is the golden shopkeeper there?" ”

"I'm Jin Xiaoye." Jin Xiaoye said, and couldn't help but look at this girl a few more times.

This girl is not very good-looking, but she is very white, and she gives people an indescribable feeling...... By the way, it can be said that this person has an outstanding temperament.

If it weren't for the bad material and old clothes she was wearing, Jin Xiaoye would think that she was a young lady from a big family.

"Shopkeeper Jin, do you still have any work here? I want to do some work. ”

"Not today, but tomorrow there will be a lot of work." Jin Xiaoye opened her mouth, she took a big order, and she needed a lot of people to help her work.

The girl smiled at Jin Xiaoye: "Then I'll come back tomorrow." ”

After she finished speaking, she smiled at Sister Wang and the others again, and walked away slowly.

"This girl is so good-looking, but a little thin." Waiting for the others to leave, Jin Xiaoye couldn't help but say. Her aesthetic is similar to that of other people in the village, and white looks like beauty in her eyes.

"Xiao Ye, that's the eldest daughter of the Fang family." Sister Wang said.

Jin Xiaoye was stunned. Since she went back to Jin Xiaoye to sell paper, she was told by Mrs. Fang, and she stopped working for Mrs. Fang!

Mrs. Fang didn't get a job that day, and she said a lot of weird things, saying that she would never come to her side to do work in the future, but it was only a few days later, and her daughter came?

Sister Wang said: "This girl is very pitiful, in the early years, many young people wanted to marry her, but Mrs. Fang's bride price was very high, and gradually no one came to the door to propose marriage...... But she also has a bad point, she doesn't like to deal with people. I know her, do you see? She didn't say hello when she saw me! ”

Miss Fang really didn't say hello to Sister Wang just now, she only smiled...... Jin Xiaoye was surprised, and Mrs. Xu said: "It's no wonder, I heard that this Miss Fang hurt her eyes by doing too much needlework, and she can't see things in the distance, she probably can't tell who is us." ”

"And this?" Sister Wang was a little surprised.

"That's what the people I worked with told me when I used to go out to work." Mrs. Xu sighed.

Sister Wang's husband is a foot trader, and although he doesn't make a lot of money, he can take home fifty or sixty taels of silver all year round.

Their family's life is good in Chongcheng County, so her two sons can go to school.

However, Sister Wang's son has no talent in reading, and Sister Wang doesn't plan to let them take the imperial examination, she just wants them to know how to read, so that they can follow their father to do business or find a better job in the future.

Because of this, although Sister Wang used to do some needlework to earn money, she didn't do much and knew few people.

Mrs. Xu is different, although she is not in good health, she is looking for work everywhere and knows many people.

According to Mrs. Xu, after the death of Miss Qianqian's father ten years ago, Miss Fang was stared at by her mother to do needlework at home every day, and she had to light the lamp at night to do it, and her eyes would be broken if she did too much.

Jin Xiaoye was a little sympathetic to this Miss Fang, but thinking that many people in the countryside couldn't eat enough, and some people were starved to death when there was a big flood before, there was not much sympathy left.

The dung man who poured the night incense mentioned by Sister Wang before was even more pitiful than Miss Fang, I heard that it was an old man with no children and no daughters, and he used to make a living by pouring night incense for others, and after Zhang Smelly Money monopolized this business, he could only ask for food in the county seat, this time others asked him to pour the night incense, and he was also

The person who made the money was beaten up, and he didn't know if he could survive this winter.

In this world, many people have an easy time.
