21 New Year's greetings
As soon as Qin Zhuang came back in the afternoon, he asked Qin Zisheng to go to him to endorse the book.
Obviously, he doesn't know a single big character, but he has to supervise his son's endorsement and calligraphy every day.
Qin Zisheng shook his head and finished reciting an article, Qin Zhuang frowned when he heard it, and asked, "What is this, what kind of weird tone." ”
As soon as I heard it, I was different from what I memorized on weekdays.
Qin Zisheng whispered: "My brother came back to give it to me." ”
Qin Zhuang immediately sank his face, "It's not that you don't want to learn from your brother, why don't you listen, he hasn't been admitted to the exam so many times, what good things can he teach you?" ”
Qin Zisheng was not convinced, "My brother spoke very well, better than what the old Xiucai in the village said." ”
Qin Zhuang's eyebrows furrowed, "Do you want to be like him, and you can't even pass the exam as a child for a few years?" ”
Qin Zisheng pouted, no, my brother will definitely be admitted.
He felt that his brother was very clear when he explained to him, and he understood it as soon as he heard it, unlike the master his father invited him, shaking his head and rambling for a long time.
He was almost asleep listening to it.
"Dad, Sheng'er doesn't want to go to the master's house anymore."
Qin Zhuang was about to raise his hand to beat him, Qin Zisheng was so frightened that he took a step back, but he still didn't compromise, "Dad, I don't want to waste money, I don't like that master." ”
Qin Zhuang's beard was about to stand up, "What do you know, on the day you take the county exam, you have to rely on someone to protect you, otherwise the other side of the ceremony will not receive your booklet." ”
The children's examination requires a student to participate in the examination, and it is already difficult to show talents with the difficulty of the imperial examination, let alone the first-class students in the show.
Dali Village is also lucky to have such a person.
So people from more than a dozen villages around the city who want to study all come here.
But even so, there are few students, after all, there are still a few farmers who are willing to spend a lot of money to send their children to study.
Qin Zisheng whispered: "Dad, the master is not good to me at all, and Su Rili doesn't like to take care of me at all." ”
Qin Zhuang said angrily: "The master is the master, the master doesn't care about you, don't you know how to be motivated?" ”
After a pause, he said again: "Who is to blame for this, don't blame Qin Zichu, the master thinks he is not enlightened, and he even dislikes you." ”
Qin Zisheng pursed his lips, looking at what his father meant, it is estimated that he will have to go in the future.
While he was talking, someone suddenly entered the courtyard outside.
"Is Xiuhua at home?"
Qin Zisheng heard the voice of the aunt next door, so he turned around and ran out to answer, "Auntie, my mother has gone to the field and hasn't come back yet." ”
The aunt glanced inside, "Are you at home by yourself?" ”
"No, my dad is too."
The aunt's voice was raised a little higher, and she said with a smile: "I'll tell your father about this matter is the same, or you can go in and call for me." ”
Although it was broad daylight, there was only one big man in Qinzhuang in the house, and it was not very convenient for the aunt to go in.
Qin Zisheng nodded, and was about to go in to call someone, but Qin Zhuang had already come out.
"What's the matter?"
He usually has a straight face, and his aunt is not surprised, and said to herself: "Lao Qin, you said that you are a person, why didn't the eldest son tell us about that ability earlier, and Luobian Village didn't talk about it, and now even Dongxi Village and the town are in turn, and we haven't seen a shadow." Alas, the tables and chairs are nothing, it's the wheelbarrow that can lift things for six people, you must not forget us, Chu'er grew up with us, no, the things he got out were cheaper for outsiders first, didn't he? ”
The more Qin Zhuang listened, the more frowning he became, what kind of nonsense was he saying? What kind of car is the table and chair, and what does it have to do with Qin Zichu?
Qin Zisheng said curiously: "Auntie, I didn't understand what you said, what's wrong with my brother?" ”
The aunt was stunned for a moment, and said in astonishment: "You still don't know? ”
"What the hell is going on?"
The aunt looked at Qin Zhuang, who seemed to be a little impatient, and explained: "A few years ago, your Chu'er got a new table and chair, and now several villages are crazy. ”
"And the wheelbarrow, it's the new baby that came out recently, and when I went to the town to buy seeds yesterday, I saw Su He from Luobian Village pushing his wife, so I inquired."
Qin Zhuang's brows were furrowed, and his aunt's tone seemed as if he didn't let Qin Zichu behave, but in fact, he, the father, didn't know anything.
Qin Zisheng was overjoyed, "Auntie, do you mean that the new tables and chairs and the wheelbarrow that can push people are all made by my brother?" ”
The aunt smiled, "It was the drawings he made, and his father made them." ”
Speaking of this, she glanced at Qin Zhuang and changed her words: "It was his father-in-law who did it." ”
Qin Zisheng was not interested in tables and chairs, after all, his aunt said that it was a dowry, but he was very interested in a wheelbarrow.
"Auntie, have you ever seen my brother's wheelbarrow?"
The aunt shook her head, "I haven't seen it, but your uncle has seen it, and it is said that there is only one wheel, and it can sit on it and carry things, which is enough for six manpower miles." ”
Qin Zisheng's eyes widened, "Six manpower." ”
"Not really."
The aunt said a lot just now, but Qin Zhuang didn't hear it clearly, but now he heard it clearly, and he understands what is going on.
So his eldest son hid his ability when he was at home, and as soon as he entered the door of the Su family, he tossed such a big movement?
It's a special trip against him, right?
Qin Zhuang's teeth were about to be crushed.
This unfilial thing.
The aunt also saw that something was wrong at this time, and hurriedly said: "Didn't Chu'er come back to pay New Year's greetings yet, maybe I'm waiting to tell you in person, the door of my courtyard is not closed, I'll go back and have a look first." ”
With that, she hurried away.
Qin Zisheng was very excited, "My brother painted it, a wheelbarrow!" ”
Li Xiuhua happened to come back, met her aunt at the door, and said in surprise: "His aunt, what are you doing in a hurry?" ”
The aunt shook her head, "Xiuhua, I will bring you the seeds you asked my man to buy later." ”
"Oh, oh."
Li Xiuhua looked at her back blankly, what's wrong?
When I entered the door, I saw the head of the house and his youngest son standing at the door of the hall, and the atmosphere was very strange, so he asked, "What's the matter, Sheng'er, what did your aunt say?" ”
Qin Zisheng jumped over, happily told him what he had just done, and said at the end: "Mother, I want to go to my brother, I will pay New Year's greetings to my brother and sister-in-law, is it done?" ”
Li Xiuhua glanced at Qin Zhuang first, and then said: "What year do you worship as a child, there is no such rule in the village." ”
"Then I'll go to my brother to ask for knowledge, and Brother Xiaohan said I can go."
He was sister-in-law for a while, sister-in-law for a while, brother Xiaohan, and Li Xiuhua didn't say anything about him, anyway, the relationship was already embarrassing.
"At the moment of the New Year's Festival, it's not good to go to other people's homes to disturb, and when the New Year's Festival is over, my mother will send you over."
As soon as Qin Zisheng heard it, he knew that his mother was perfunctory to him, and said unhappily: "Then I'll go by myself." ”
As he spoke, he was about to go out.
Li Xiuhua grabbed him, "Maybe your brother is coming back for New Year's greetings, let's talk about it when he comes back." ”
She wasn't very sure about the New Year's greetings, after all, she hadn't told Qin Zichu about it, but she could see that Qin Zhuang was angry now, and she was afraid that Qin Zisheng would touch him.
Qin Zisheng glanced at his father's face and replied sheepishly.
I wish my brother would come back soon.
