Chapter 263: Sorrow
Ma Shi was instantly silent when she said this.
Of course she knows about her mother-in-law's heart disease, in fact, don't say it's her, even her sister-in-law knows it.
However, knowing is knowing, but her old age is there, who would dare to let her go out alone?
You must know that she is sixty-four years old this year, and looking at the entire Liuyun County, she can be regarded as a long-lived person.
If something goes wrong with her, what should she do?
It's just that now the family is busy, and the sister-in-law has two daughters-in-law who are pregnant with Liujia to take care of, and she has to take care of the work inside and outside the house.
At this time, the only thing that can be counted on is the second room.
But Junzi is also going to go on a scientific examination in February, and Yuanniang is about to get married.
Even if they are married, it is also when the two of them are newly married, how can there be a reason to separate people like this?
Think about it, Ma is worried!
Mrs. Wang didn't care what Ma was thinking, and after she said this, she turned her gaze to the two cousins, Li Jun and Li Zheng.
"You two give me a good study, and I must get ahead. Our family is because we have no power and power, and because we are ordinary people, so your father and second uncle will be persecuted. But as long as our family is a little more powerful, the thief will not dare to be so arrogant. ”
Mrs. Wang's words, Li Jun and Li Zheng, the two cousins, instantly doubled the pressure.
Li Jun is okay, he originally just wanted to take the test to show his talent, but he has begun to turn hatred into motivation in his heart, and he can't wait to go back to Hanging Beam and study hard.
And Li Zheng, he knows how capable he is, and he doesn't have much confidence in going to the test this time.
Even if Xie Yanzhi said that among him and Junzi, he was more likely to be admitted, but he knew in his heart that it was only a comparison with Junzi!
Junzi hasn't touched a book for eleven or twelve years, and now even if he is serious, he won't be able to pass the exam when the time comes, and everyone thinks it's reasonable.
And he can't, he followed his second uncle at the age of five, and studied hard for more than ten years, and he never broke it in between.
Before, because I didn't have confidence, I never took the test.
This is the first time this year, and he is under a lot of pressure.
Now that his grandmother said this, he felt suffocated as soon as he thought that if he fell behind, the disappointment in the eyes of his grandmother and his father and mother at that time......
After Xie Yanzhi watched the old lady finish speaking, the atmosphere was deadlocked in silence.
As the most qualified person to speak, he said directly to Li Jun and Li Zheng: "Don't put too much pressure on yourself, just be normal." You guys do what I say, and if nothing else, you should all be on the list, it's just a matter of how much you rank. Alright, there's nothing for you here, you go back first. ”
Li Jun wanted to go back and study hard, but when he heard this, he whispered to Wang Can: "Cancan, the milk may be a little stimulated, you look at it, I'll go back first." ”
After the words fell, after Wang Can nodded, he took the lead in standing up and said to Mrs. Wang: "Milk, then I'll go back to reading first!" ”
And Li Zheng couldn't wait to escape from here, and hurriedly got up when he saw this: "Milk, I'm also leaving!" ”
Mrs. Wang wished that they would read more books and get famous as soon as possible, so she waved at them: "Go!" ”
As soon as the two of them left, Xie Yanzhi said frankly to Mrs. Wang: "Milk, I can understand your feelings, but now is a special time, please don't put too much pressure on the two of them." Junzi hadn't touched a book for many years, and it was more difficult to pick it up again than ordinary readers. He wants to be admitted, but it's hard to say a word! The reason why I wanted to ask him to take the test was just to let him experience that atmosphere in advance. ”
Mrs. Wang originally had high hopes for Li Jun, but when she heard this, her heart sank.
Xie Yanzhi continued: "Of course, I don't dare to say this to him directly, for fear of dampening his enthusiasm. So use encouragement to tell him to go all out to take the test. If you can get in, you might not know. After all, there is a disaster outside, and I don't know how many people have died this year. As long as you can pass the county exam, there is still hope of passing the exam. ”
"As for Zhengzi, he has a better foundation than Junzi, but his spirituality is insufficient. Even if you can get in, you won't be too high in the ranking. Another point, his heart is not as good as Junzi's. He already has some self-doubt, and if you hit him or put pressure on him, you are pulling him back and making him back down. I'll put it bluntly, his show in his life is coming to an end, and it's difficult to go one step further! ”
When Mrs. Wang heard Xie Yanzhi's straightforward words, if this had been put on hold in the past, she would have been satisfied.
But the death of her second son made her thirst for power.
Now Xie Yanzhi's words are undoubtedly pouring cold water on her on a cold day, making her feel cold.
She wanted to say something, but she didn't know what she could say.
Ma on the side was still very happy after hearing Xie Yanzhi's words.
Their family can only show off their talents, reduce labor and taxes, and she has no hope for anything else.
It doesn't matter if it's at the end, it's a show after all, isn't it?
With Xiucai's paperwork, not to mention the convenience of travel, you can also open a private school, and you don't have to dig in the field in the future.
Therefore, at this time, she looked at Mrs. Wang with hope in her eyes: "Mother, Shao'an has a point. I know you're worried about the second uncle, but we Zhengzi is only capable of that, so let's not put pressure on him. Also, Yuanniang is also the child of the second uncle, if her man can be admitted to the Jinshi, then it is also okay. In the future, our Li clan people will go out, who will dare to underestimate it? And Ah Niang, you're getting old, don't go to Fucheng to toss? Who can rest assured that you go out like this? Even if you don't think about yourself, you have to think more about us. We're going to really let you go, and when we turn around, someone else will poke us in the back. ”
Mrs. Wang, who was already woken up by Xie Yanzhi's cold water, only heard the sentence that poked her backbone, and immediately turned her back and began to wipe her tears.
She also has two children and other children and grandchildren.
Those who are already dead have been dead for so many years. Even if she is unwilling, she has to let go, and she can't let other children and grandchildren be accused of being unfilial.
Xie Yanzhi was a little embarrassed, and after signaling to Li Yuan, he left directly.
The people who stayed behind heard the faint sound of sorrow, and their hearts were quite complicated.
The three rooms of the big house lowered their heads one after another, while Wang Can and Li Yuan glanced at each other, and walked to Mrs. Wang's side with a tacit understanding.
After Ma Shi and Li Sanhai got out of the way, the two stood beside the old lady on the left and right, patting her on the back gently.
It was only when the old man's crying slowly subsided that Li Yuan said, "Milk, don't cry!" When we came back, Brother Xie said that this case is a bit complicated now, and there should be Master Qincha who will come down to investigate, so it can't be solved for a while. After Junzi and their county tried, we are going to Fucheng, and if you still want to go when the time comes, will you be okay? ”
