Lin Piao slept peacefully until dawn, listened to the movement outside, and pushed open the window to see that the second aunt and Uncle Qiu were already cutting meat and mixing meat.

The second aunt saw him get up and lean on the window: "Piao'er, I'll let Uncle Qiu go out to see the meat later, generally there are things to sell in the ten miles and eight villages, and they are sold on the street at the city gate. Come back with some by the way. ”

"It's okay, it would be better if I had a pork rib soup to drink, and lately I've been eating barbecue sandwiches at noon, and I feel a little dry and panicked."

"If you eat too much, it's easy to get angry, and you always want to drink water, so let's make a soup at noon and make do with a sandwich cake, and make a noodle soup in the afternoon, which is slippery and moisturizing."

"Okay, the noodle soup made by my aunt is the best."

Lin Piao got up from the bed and got dressed, the kang was still warm, and then he sat on the kang for a while to save up the heat, and when his clothes and pants were hot and his hands and feet were free, Lin Piao got up.

"Auntie, Uncle Qiu, I'll go out to eat a bowl of hot little wontons, can you two eat it?"

"You take Da Zhuang to eat first, and your Uncle Qiu and I will see what to eat later."

"Okay."

Lin Piao took Da Zhuang out of the house, and asked for two bowls of wontons at the steamy small wonton shop, it was the time when the proprietress got up in the morning and was cold, as soon as the proprietress opened the pot, the heat was like a white mist and was so hot that no one could be seen, the proprietress accurately grabbed two handfuls of wontons and threw them down, and then closed the lid of the pot, and then saw the figure of the proprietress standing behind the pot in the mist, and asked them.

"As usual, you have to burn the meat with green onions and cabbage."

"You have to drop more sesame oil."

"Cheng, this sesame oil in my house is squeezed by my relatives themselves, one or two drops are fragrant, and there is no one who comes to eat here who does not love this sesame oil." The proprietress poured sesame oil into their bowls, and after a while she lifted the lid of the pot, scooped up the big spoon, and turned her head with two bowls of wontons.

"Lin Piao, whose child is this? Your relatives? ”

"Ah yes, the children of my relatives' family, who have come to join us, are expected to live here forever in the future."

The proprietress nodded: "Then you have quite a lot of relatives, and there are several children." ”

"There's no way, that's how people are thriving."

Lin Piao said and began to eat wontons hotly, a bowl of hot wontons from the stomach to the back of the vest, and finally drank most of the soup, drinking until a little beads of sweat appeared on the tip of his nose, and this morning was completely hot.

After eating breakfast, Da Zhuang went home to help, and Lin Piao went to the cloth shop and began to investigate the cloth shop.

"Don't make silk material, but cotton, soft and comfortable."

Xiao Er hurriedly led him to the other side: "It's all cotton here, what does the guest officer want to buy it for?" It is the best to make underwear, the most comfortable in summer, soft, sweat-absorbent, and the vest will not stick to the body if it sweats. ”

Lin Piao looked at it and nodded, asked the price again, and then ruthlessly went to the next one.

He just wanted to do some market research first.

Lin Piao found that the embroidery girls in the county government are generally scattered, a radish and a pit, generally a cloth shop or a garment shop, there are two to five embroidery girls, they work for this shop, and then there are shops that sell handkerchief sachets, and there are two ways to sell the goods in the store, one is the embroidery girl who works for fixed shipments, and the other is a part-time embroidery girl embroidered at home to exchange money, these stores have a good relationship with these embroidery girls, will receive the goods fixedly, and then put them on the shelves for sale.

After Lin Piao's investigation, he found that the whole circle was very closed, there was basically no apprenticeship system, and the craft was passed down from generation to generation, from mother to daughter, or to niece, and then it was not easy to pass it on to the neighbor's girl.

Lin Piao pondered for a while, thinking that the cow had blown out and said that Juan'er would be an embroiderer, but now there was no place for Juan'er to work, could it be that Juan'er was really asked to be a maid for Shen Hong?

If you want to have an apprentice, you must first have a master, and if you want a master to take an apprentice, you must first provide a job for the embroidery girl to develop the industry.

Lin Piao thought about it, since he wanted to make daily necessities such as hair dryers, why didn't he hire two embroidery girls? Then it will definitely not be obvious to let Juan'er be an apprentice embroiderer, so that the gears will not be pushed? Isn't the career going to develop?

After thinking about it for a long time, Lin Piao felt a little bit like making dumplings for a plate of vinegar, but he felt that it was not a loss, and it was not bad to be idle and create a business to earn some money.

After Lin Piao thought it through, he walked back and began to figure out which joint to start with.

The second aunt and Uncle Qiu were at their busiest time at noon, and the queue outside the stall was already long. "The ever-lengthening line stopped.

There are also people who keep looking forward, asking, "What about that Lin Piao?" Just that brother? Why haven't I seen him today? ”

"He's gone on something else today."

"What did he do, this skewer is half less flavorful without him." You must know that they usually wait here, and watching Lin Piao make skewers is also a sight to behold.

The second aunt frowned lightly when she heard him say this: "Then do you eat or not?" ”

"Eat, why don't you eat, didn't I come here to eat this." The man was stupid, and he didn't please the flowers.

The second aunt did not name names, and pointed at Sang and scolded Huai while making an order: "My family Piao'er is a clean and clean person, and he can't talk about anything dirty and smelly, and he can't stop eating!" ”

If the second aunt usually thinks about making money in harmony, it would be okay, but when it comes to Lin Piao, she doesn't say a few words, and people still think that they are easy to bully when they set up a stall here.

The man was not in good condition, got what he had eaten, and hurried away.

Uncle Qiu also had the same attitude towards this, and even felt that it was fortunate that Piao'er was not there, otherwise this man would not be a matter of being said twice, and Piao'er would be able to scold him so much that he couldn't find the north.

When Lin Piao's return, the skewers had already been sold, and a few skewers that had not yet been baked were waiting to be served with scones, and the pork rib soup on the pot had already been stewed.

They were at the foot of the mountain, and the days passed quickly, and soon in mid-April, Ergou returned from the state government examination, and although the results had not yet come down, the whole person was majestic and high-spirited, as if he had returned from a victory.

From time to time, he bragged to Erzhu: "The state capital and the county government are really different, it really fascinated my eyes at once, and I will definitely want to live in these big places in the future, you don't know what they are like on the streets, let alone those foods." ”

Since Erzhu had already found his true love career, he was too lazy to bother with Ergou, and said calmly: "So, how did you do in the exam?" I heard that the government examination does not need to be closed for five days, but it will be released after three days, right? ”

"It's three days, it's much better than the county test, but it's still a layer of skin, the state capital is expensive, and you can't afford to drink a meal of chicken soup outside, so you usually eat meat buns."

"Yes, you all have meat buns to eat, and when we didn't meet my sister-in-law in the village, we still had a meal."

"Haha, that's right."

The two brothers suddenly had a little idea of reminiscing about the past, and after chatting for a while, Ergou sat down in front of the steps and glanced at Erzhu: "Have you thought about it?" In the future, I really don't study and practice martial arts? ”

"There's nothing to think about or not to think about, I just think that martial arts training is suitable for me, I can't think of those twists and turns, what about you? Are you planning to study at Seifeng Academy? ”

"Yes, I passed the county exam, and I guess it can be foolish to go to Qingfeng Academy, my father rushed home to see the land, and tomorrow my mother and I will go to Qingfeng Academy for a walk." Ergou looked at Erzhu for a while: "Do you really think you can't enter Qingfeng Academy?" Have you thought about some other ......? ”

"Don't think about it."

Ergou nodded: "Understood." ”

After all, there is Wang Xiucai in Qingfeng Academy, and it is not necessary to deal with them, but there is a limit to being embarrassed, after all, Shen Hong has already gone to Ludong Academy, and Erzhu may be a little embarrassed, but the main thing is that he has learned martial arts himself, so he doesn't want to think about other things.

Ergou borrowed and lived in a room with Erzhu, because there were no more rooms, so Ergou found a small inn outside, planning to return to the village after arranging Ergou's study in the county government.

The second dog lady and the second dog have been on their side in the afternoon, the second dog girl is busy helping to help, the second dog and the second pillar are talking and chatting, the second aunt Uncle Qiu and Lin Piao because they have not seen the second dog for a period of time, they are very enthusiastic about the second dog, the second aunt because they think that the second dog can read, is a good seedling, everyone appreciates him like a surging river, after a burst of pushing and fueling, finally finalized the senior courtesy of the second dog, kill a duck, make sour radish and duck soup to eat.

Erzhu was quite happy to see Ergou at first, but later saw that his mother loved Ergou so much, and usually the little sister-in-law always persuaded her not to kill chickens or ducks when she was greedy.

Lin Piao couldn't help but laugh when he came out of the house, and whispered: "Second aunt, go and see Erzhu, such a big boy, you can still hang an oil bottle on your mouth." ”

The second aunt panicked, and when she entered the house, she was reprimanded: "What kind of oil bottle are you hanging, what are you doing with your duck butt." The second aunt lowered her voice: "Isn't it just a little better for the second dog, the second dog hasn't seen each other for a long time, and it's back from the exam, and the smell is far away and smelly No, your sister-in-law and Shen Hong usually do things with Shen Hong, where do you see your sister-in-law busy with work?" But he just went home from the academy some time ago, and your sister-in-law burned him a kang. ”

Erzhu was told that although he was not happy, but thinking about it, this is indeed the reason, he usually doesn't like to take care of Ergou, but today he saw Ergou, and he took out money to invite him to eat.

Ergou is going to Qingfeng Academy tomorrow to see Mr., everyone gathers together for dinner, and after eating, Ergou looks at Lin Piao: "Little sister-in-law, now that I have taken the exam again, I have to continue to study, and it is not good to call Ergou again, Shen Hong is not here, you are in charge, help me come up with a nice name." ”

Lin Piao looked at the second dog lady, and saw that the second dog lady was also full of agreement and persuasion, and then thought about it: "You are the most clever person, and you are a person who has a bit of luck on your body, and you have crossed the line, I think this spirit word is very suitable for you." ”

"Li Ling? It sounds a little girlish, sister-in-law, if you add a word to me, you can take three words directly, so as not to trouble in the future, and what kind of words do you have to take? ”

"You can't steal this lazy, how can you take the table word early, you can also want a three-character name, but you have to take it yourself after the table word, you think the spirit is too girly, then find you a boy." Lin Piao thought for a while.

"Do you like Yue Zi?"

Ergou heard it: "It's called Lingyue?" Oh my God, that's ...... name."

"What's wrong? Doesn't like that if it sounds so weird? Luck is also possible."

"No, I like it, this name sounds really rich and good, Li Lingyue, as soon as he says it, it is like the kind of family that has tens of thousands of taels of silver by his side." Ergou carefully touched these two names, Lingyue, Lingyun, this name is like a fairy spirit, Ergou feels that if he changes his name, he will be admitted to the top of the exam immediately.

"Is Lingyue better or Lingyun better?"

Erzhu listened beside him: "Yue, we are all from the mountains, and the word Yue has roots. ”

Ergou nodded when he heard this: "Okay, it's Lingyue, Li Lingyue." ”

Erzhu listened to the side and frowned secretly, and looked at Ergou's face.

It's so strange that I can't call out the three words Li Lingyue.

Take another look.

It's still weird.

Chapter 69

Ergou had a new name, Lingyue Lingyue muttered, and he looked at Erzhu for a while: "Erzhu, will you change one too?" Let my sister-in-law also think of a good one for you, although it is not as good as my Lingyue, but it is definitely better than Erzhu. ”

The second aunt said she was not surprised: "I think Erzhu's name is okay, but if Erzhu wants to make a good sound, I don't want to, after all, we have all come to the county government, and it is okay to take a good one." ”

Erzhu shook his head: "I don't change, I don't go to the academy to study, I don't take exams, what do I change." ”

Lin Piaoyi heard that this kid was still a little awkward: "Who said you don't take the exam?" You are going to take the exam when you learn martial arts, and you have to take the martial arts championship when the time comes, have you forgotten? ”

Erzhu was said to have his chest puffed up, but he still didn't change his mind: "Then I'll change it when I take the exam, but now I won't change it, unlike some people, who are blind." ”

Ergou gave him a roll of his eyes and whispered back: "Pretend." ”

The matter was settled in this way, Ergou changed his name, Erzhu did not change it for the time being, and the very ceremonial decision was to change it after the exam.

On the second day, Ergou took his newly changed name and went to Qingfeng Academy for an interview.

"Passed? Did the gentleman of Qingfeng Academy accept the second dog? Lin Piao's expression when he looked at Ergou should be very different.

Ergou suddenly nodded loudly, indicating that he had no obstacles all the way, and that his admission to school was not too smooth, but he did not mention that he took the new name, that is, he did not mention Lin Piao or the affairs of the village, and in addition, he had already participated in the county and government examinations, although the results had not yet come out, but the smooth road was simply not too easy.

After eating at noon, she said that she was going back to the village, and took half a bag of money and stuffed it to Lin Piao: "The land in the village still needs to be taken care of, and the second dog will take care of it, and he has a place to sleep, and he can stutter, and if there is anything to do in ordinary times, just call him, and my father and I will definitely take good care of the land in the village, and the grain will come out in the coming year and be shipped to you, you don't have to worry about anything in the county government, we are in the village!" ”

Lin Piao nodded: "Then Aunt Xie, there are several pieces of land at home, and it is troublesome to take care of, and you don't need to cook it very carefully, just don't make it waste." ”

"How can it be done, your house is a good paddy field and a good land! You can produce as much as you should. ”

Lin Piao and Uncle Qiu, the second aunt, sent the second dog out of the door, watching her back disappear into the alley, and looking back, the second dog had already sat back in the yard, pulling the second pillar to quack and laugh.

Lin Piao listened closely, and he was talking to Erzhu about his experience in interviewing Qingfeng Academy, and he also summed up a set of honest theories.

"When you go to these places, these places where there are a lot of scholars, you have to behave very honestly, and you can't be too clever, otherwise people will feel that your mind is not right, you are not an honest person, you have too many eyes and so on, but you can't be really honest, and people who are really honest will think, how can this child be stupid, rotten wood cannot be carved, and he looks stupid and stupid, so he can't be honest, and he can't be really honest, and it is the right thing to make them think that you are very honest."

Lin Piao thought to himself that this kid was still strange enough to drill into the camp, and the wooden head of the second pillar was just right, so he stepped forward and threw the money bag on the table: "Honest man, you can keep the money left by your mother." ”

"Little sister-in-law, my mother gave it to you, you hold the flowers, although there are not few, but it is also a heart, you don't spend my mother's heart, she is not as thick-skinned as me."

"You are quite self-aware, tell you to keep it, if you are really thick-skinned, don't let your mother know, in the future, this will be your pocket money, and there will be no flowers."

The second aunt watched from the side, and said in her heart that she would send her mother away, how could this child not be sad at all, he originally loved him to be able to read, but now he still looks at the second pillar of his own family, and he is worried about people, if he can't see the important person, he can sit on the stool and sigh for a while.

"Your father and mother have gone back now, and it has been a long time since you have been studying in the county government to see each other, so don't you feel uncomfortable?" The second aunt asked tentatively.

Ergou said he didn't care: "What's the use of being sad, and I can't bring them to the county government, I'm happy with me, and it's the right thing to read out the books and earn money." ”
