Fang Jinniang only ate a small bowl of rice, Jin Xiaoye was different, Sister Wang's bowl was a little small for her, she ate three bowls in one go, and then started to get busy again.

Li Qingzhi stayed in Li Xiucai's school for a day, and at noon he ate the food sent by the Zhu family.

Seeing that the time was almost up, Li Qingzhi said to Li Xiucai and left the school to go to Sister Wang's house.

The door of Sister Wang's house was open, and there were still several people in the house doing needlework, Li Qingzhi walked in, saw Jin Xiaoye at a glance, and couldn't help laughing: "Xiaoye." ”

"You're here!" Jin Xiaoye stood up and gave his stool to Li Qingzhi: "Sit down and rest." "Sister Wang's house doesn't have many chairs, and they are not enough to sit.

"Just sit down." Li Qing insisted.

"I've been sitting for a long time and I'm a little uncomfortable, so sit down!" Jin Xiaoye pressed Li Qing on the stool: "I'm almost ready, when it's ready, we'll go together." ”

"Okay." Li Qing replied, and then went to look at the others in the house.

At this look, Li Qingzhi saw a girl with an outstanding temperament making leather gloves.

This girl looks like she is in her twenties, and she doesn't look very beautiful, but her temperament gives her a great bonus, and her snow-white skin is also very rare, which makes people think she is very special.

This person looks like a young lady who doesn't touch the spring water with ten fingers, why did she come out to do needlework?

Li Qingzhi was thinking like this, when he saw the girl take the leather gloves in her hand to her eyes, put them less than a decimeter away from her eyes, and looked at them carefully.

This myopia, I'm afraid there are seven or eight hundred degrees!

If she is so myopic that severely...... In her eyes, I am afraid that she is only a vague human form, and her facial features are not clear.

Li Qingzhi was also short-sighted in his previous life.

When he was in his third year of high school, most of the students in his class were short-sighted, and he was not immune.

But then when the end came, he awakened his ability and adjusted his eyes, so his eyes were no longer short-sighted.

In modern times, even if you are short-sighted, it is okay, you can wear glasses or even have surgery to improve your vision, but people in this era are more miserable if they are short-sighted, after all, there are no glasses at this time.

"What are you looking at?" Jin Xiaoye asked in a low voice, a little unhappy.

She herself glanced at Fang Jinniang from time to time, but Li Qing insisted on watching it, and she was not happy.

Li Qingzhi asked, "Her eyes are not very good?" ”

"Yes, I did too much needlework and hurt my eyes." Jin Xiaoye Road.

"I see," Li Qingzhi no longer looked at Fang Jinniang, but looked at Jin Xiaoye with concern: "Xiaoye, you do less work, so as not to hurt your body." ”

"I'll take notice." Jin Xiaoye laughed and continued to be busy with the things at hand.

When Jin Xiaoye was done, he turned his head and found that Li Qingzhi had already chatted with the two old ladies who came to collect the soles of his shoes.

She was worried that Li Qingzhi liked Fang Jinniang before, but the result was ...... Li Qingzhi obviously preferred those two old ladies.

Jin Xiaoye said: "Ah Qing, let's go." ”

Li Qing stubbornly stood up and left with Jin Xiaoye.

Fang Jinniang does not squint, and has been doing needlework seriously.

She can't see other people's expressions clearly, so it's not convenient to chat, and she is not familiar with the people here...... She simply listened and didn't speak, and by the way, she made up for the appearance of others.

The husband of the golden shopkeeper talks a lot...... Fang Jinniang's mind came up with the appearance of a middle-aged man she had seen when she was a child who loved to chat.

Li Qingzhi followed Jin Xiaoye outside, and Jin Xiaoye said, "Ah Qing, Xiaoshu was beaten today!" ”

Li Qingzhi frowned: "What's the matter?" "Jin Xiaoshu can be his own son at his age...... Li Qingzhi has always regarded Jin Xiaoshu as a junior.

Jin Xiaoye told what happened in the morning, and said: "Just today, Zhang Bad Money said that he would pour the toilet in the future, and he would give a penny for pouring it once." ”

Li Qingzhi frowned when he heard this.

Chongcheng County is a wealthy and prosperous county, and there are many people doing business, and there are almost 20,000 people living in the suburbs of the city.

Most of these people have little money, and even many of them have no land at home and have to come to the city to beg for a living, and there are one or two thousand workers who carry goods, repair ships, and pull boats in the permanent Chase shop on the wharf, and there are also many people from those big families.

It is already difficult for them to maintain basic food and clothing, and now they have to pay for the toilet...... Doesn't that add to their already difficult lives?

However, the government has a rule that excrement cannot be dumped indiscriminately, and according to the laws of Daqi, if caught, you will be whipped ten times and fined...... There is also a reason for this, there have been cases of residents dumping excrement in the past, the whole city stinks, and the people in the city have accidentally contracted the epidemic.

Now the people in the city are really difficult.

However, Zhang Bad Money should be able to earn a lot, a toilet is poured for a penny, there are so many people in the county, he can earn two hundred taels of silver a month.

In addition, people can sell for money...... Here's another amount of money.

This may not seem like much, but it's not that easy to make money in this day and age...... Zhang Yanqian is not a big businessman like Zhu Qian, he has been mixing in Chongcheng County, and he has made so much money every month, which has surpassed those who open restaurants and shops in Chongcheng County.

"Xiaoshu, is he okay?" Li Qing asked.

"Xiaoshu is fine, but this thing is really annoying." Jin Xiaoye Road.

Li Qing insisted: "I'll think of a way." ”

When the two arrived at the river, Jin Xiaoshu was already waiting.

Seeing Li Qingzhi and Jin Xiaoye, Jin Xiaoshu greeted with a smile: "Sister, brother-in-law." ”

Li Qingzhi took a look and found that the boat had been washed clean, and Jin Xiaoshu had even put a new layer of paint on it.

Jin Xiaoshu said: "Sister, brother-in-law, there is no taste on the ship now." ”

Jin Xiaoshu has been washing the boat this morning, and then he went to buy paint and came back, and when the boat was dry, he got on some.

"Xiaoshu, show me where you were beaten." Li Qing insisted.

Jin Xiaoshu was whipped on the shoulder with a bamboo pole, and there was a deep red mark on it, which was already swollen.

Jin Xiaoshu didn't say anything, but he definitely hurt.

Because of Jin Xiaoshu's accident, Li Qingzhi and Jin Xiaoye were not in a good mood, but Jin Xiaoshu didn't show anything, and asked Jin Xiaoye: "Sister, who is the girl in Sister Wang's family who looks very white and wears blue clothes like a big lady?" ”

As soon as Jin Xiaoye heard it, he knew who he was asking: "That's Fang Jinniang." ”

Fang Jinniang...... Jin Xiaoshu kept this name in his heart, and it was the first time he liked a girl!

However, Fang Jinniang is not young, is it possible that she has already married?

Jin Xiaoshu was struggling with whether to ask, and Jin Xiaoye spoke: "Jin Niang is quite miserable." ”

Jin Xiaoye said Fang Jinniang's situation in a few words, and complained about Mrs. Fang, but she didn't say anything about Fang Jinniang's bad eyes, after all, she had already told Li Qingzhi before.

After hearing this, Jin Xiaoshu was so distressed that he couldn't do it.

But...... Fang Jinniang is twenty-four? Eight years older than him?

When Fang Jinniang was sixteen years old, he was only eight years old?!

Jin Xiaoshu was a little listless, Jin Xiaoye thought that he was like this because he was beaten: "Xiaoshu, don't feel uncomfortable, Zhang Shiqian is so arrogant, sooner or later he will be unlucky!" ”

"Hmm." Jin Xiaoshu nodded.

Thinking of the grievances suffered in the morning, Jin Xiaoshu suddenly had a different idea.

If he were a person like Zhu Qian, who would dare to beat him? He doesn't even have to empty the toilet at all.

He used to think that it would be good to be able to buy a boat of his own in the future, but now he ...... He didn't think that was enough.

He wants more money, he wants to be better.

Tomorrow morning, when his sister learns to read, he's going to learn too! In the future, he will be like Zhu Qian, to do business.

Zhu Qian's autobiography really inspired many people, at least Jin Xiaoye and Jin Xiaoshu, both of whom have undergone some changes because of this book.

When the three of them returned to Miaoqian Village, they found that Miaoqian Village was very lively, and it could not be said that Miaoqian Village was lively, it should be the Yao family next door.

There is no other reason, just because Yao Gonggong wants to accept apprentices.

After Yao Gong accepted his apprentices, he would also introduce all the guests who asked him to move the goods to his apprentices!

If you rent a boat and go to the county to find a job, you may not be able to make money, and you may not even be able to earn rent, but with Yao Gonggong taking it with you, you can make money no matter what!

There are more than a dozen young men in Miaoqian Village who want to get this opportunity, and they have crossed the sea to show their own talents

Magical powers, some people help Yao Gonggong's house repair the roof, some people help Yao Gonggong to make rice, and some people send things to Yao Gonggong, one by one, I don't know how much better than Yao Zhenfu to Yao Gonggong, as if Yao Gonggong is their own father, Yao Gonggong is stupid!

Of course, this matter has nothing to do with them, and that night, Li Qing was thinking about Zhang Qiang.

The next day, Li Qingzhi originally did not plan to go to the county seat, and wanted to write books at home and teach children.

But there was something about Jin Xiaoshu being beaten...... Early the next morning, Li Qing followed Jin Xiaoye to the county seat.

Chapter 56: Idea

When Li Qingzhi went to see Zhu Xunmiao the day before yesterday, he brought his newly written manuscript, which contained 20,000 words, and wrote the story of Gou County's order to solve the case.

After Zhu Xunmiao read it that day, he asked someone to help him copy it, and by yesterday, that person had already copied most of it.

This morning, the manuscript should be finished...... Li Qingzhi planned to take this manuscript to visit Gou County Order in the afternoon.

He didn't tell Jin Xiaoye and Jin Xiaoshu about this, only said that he was going to school.

"Brother-in-law, why do you still want to go to the academy when you're so old?" Jin Xiaoshu asked.

"Learning things has nothing to do with age, it just depends on whether you like it or not, and whether it is useful to you." Li Qing insisted.

"Then brother-in-law, what's the use of you going to the academy to learn things?" Jin Xiaoshu asked, his brother-in-law already knows how to copy books and settle accounts, why do you still need to learn?

Li Qing said with a smile: "I want to go to the imperial examination." ”

Jin Xiaoshu looked at Li Qingzhi in surprise: "Brother-in-law, can you be admitted?" ”

Even if his brother-in-law is not good at learning, he was arrested and worked as a coolie for five years...... I haven't studied for so many years, and I still have to take the imperial examination?

Jin Xiaoshu felt that it would be more reliable to let Li Damao and Li Ermao go to the academy to study, and try to take the imperial examination in the future.

Big hair and two hairs are so smart!

Li Qing insisted: "It should be possible, no matter what, it's not a bad thing to try." ”

Jin Xiaoshu was thoughtful.

Now the people who are holding the boat are Jin Xiaoshu, and Li Qingzhi is teaching Jin Xiaoye to read and write on the boat.

Before you know it, the boat arrives at the county seat.
