The first assistant girl has space

Chapter 184 184 Brazen

Familiarity with the streets and alleys of the city and every corner of the city is an important skill for beggars to make a living.

For them, which part of Yangzhou City is rich, which part is poor, and which part is relatively generous and easy to get food is a problem they must figure out.

Even if they cannot go to various places to beg for some reason, they can only beg in a fixed area, but that is only on the surface, as long as they are not discovered, no one cares where you go to beg.

Who knows how many gods can know everyone in the knees of the whole journey, so this matter can still be played on the sidelines. Basically, when these beggars first started begging, they were just nearby, begging and begging. After a long time, It will no longer be satisfied with a fixed small-scale territory. Those who are brave will basically have their own channels to contact beggars elsewhere, take their good friends, and go active in other areas to see if there are other outlets , to live a better life.

Moreover, among the beggars, there are also those older well-meaning people. At these times, as long as they are a little smarter and more sincere, and get their guidance, they can avoid many detours.And sometimes it is very easy to please these kind-hearted people.Just pay a little food and give some sincerity in normal times.When fighting, rush ahead when eating.Put it in the back, and be respectful, and care about them from the bottom of your heart, and you can get their advice. So as long as you have been a beggar for a while, be a little smarter, have hugged, fought, and robbed other people. A beggar who has eaten a meal will basically know something about you in the whole city.

The beggar gang is a gang that spreads all over the country. There are beggars in any city. I don’t know why these people become beggars. However, it is very common for people living at the bottom to not have enough to eat.

To get tens of pennies and throw all the things in the whole Yangzhou city is a huge profit. Every beggar is very excited and moves very quickly.

Leaflets soon spread throughout Yangzhou City.

Everyone knew about it the next morning, except Ji's family who had been guarding the hospital all the time.

They have been worried about Ji Gongzi's injury, and they are also worried about the development of subsequent events.Seeing that this son is not going well, but they still have to spend so much money on medicine, they are a little hesitant whether to let this sleeping son live in the hospital, because besides this son, there are so many other children in the family. People, if this matter is passed back, the boss, the second child, the third child, and the fourth child, what will they think?
This matter is sure to turn the world upside down. Old man Ji and Mrs. Ji feel a headache when they think about it. Back then, they used their identities as parents and the future of the fifth child to threaten and use their sons, making them work like cattle and horses all day long. Planing food in the ground and taking out all the money, now the fifth child has no chance to get ahead, so they will definitely rebound.

After so many years of hard work in the fields, working hard, I just want to pull them up, or pull out their children, whether it is them or pull out their children. , It’s what they want to see, and it’s also the motivation behind their hard work and my complaints over the years, but they are still willing to support the fifth child.

Now that all hope has been dashed, how would they want to?

This person couldn't accept it. It was impossible for these sons to do something frightening. Just thinking about them gave me a headache.

In fact, if the fifth child can continue to take the exam, I am afraid that being a small pot who scolds him can make up for their hard work for so many years, but Lao Wu has now become a useless person and has no chance to become an official. Then their investment for so many years Even if it was a blood loss, it was a complete failure.

This is a big gamble, if you win the gamble, everyone will ascend to heaven together, if you lose the gamble, everyone will go bankrupt.

This is the status quo faced by ancient scholars, or poor scholars.

Therefore, a conscientious family, generally speaking, will not make a few brothers, and everyone in the family supports one of them to study.

Because of this matter, it is unfair to other people, especially in ancient times, reading books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones, teachers, basic necessities of life, housing, transportation, opportunities to study, advice from famous teachers, etc... everything is expensive, and every place has to pay for it. money.

And this money, for the ancient peasants, was an amount that they could not afford even if their belts were tightened.

If an ordinary peasant who was born in poverty wants to study, he needs to support him with all the strength of the whole family.

The labor and fruits of all the people will be taken by one person, and if the scholar can't read well, all the resources that the family has put in before will be in vain.

All the sufferings and tribulations they suffered before were meaningless. On the contrary, the family that could have lived a relatively prosperous life with ease had become poor and empty.

Who can stand it?

Therefore, whether it is the investor or the invested person, they are all under tremendous pressure. Those who invest in capital put all their money on one person, so they cannot accept failure.

Even if they lose the bet once, they will think, if they failed the first time, maybe they can succeed the second time?After all, with experience accumulated, the chance of success the second time is even greater.

Although it still takes a lot of money to take the exam for the second time and study for another year, but I have already spent so much money before. If I give up now, wouldn’t it be in vain?
So anyway, you have already lost so much, so let's lose a little more and give it a try, maybe there will be a good result.

At least one must pass the exam as a scholar.

One time is not enough for two times, two times is not enough for three times, three times is not enough for five times, and there is always one time to succeed.Just like a gambler who is jealous, he is unwilling to give up no matter what.

If you win once, you can double your money, if you win twice, you can become a person, why is the master?Not much, I have already embarked on this road from the beginning, and now I can't stop at all.

So they will think of many ways.Carry out this matter to the end.

If the family members in the family can't pay for a scholar with the money they spent digging in the soil, then they will find a way, such as marrying the daughter of the family, and asking for a high price for a dowry. At this time, it is not marrying a daughter, but selling The daughter, or the daughter who has not yet grown up in the family, is sold to be a slave, and the money is used to study for the son of the family. At this time, one is sold.

If you fail the exam only once, then you will come again and sell all the daughters at home, and if the child has not been admitted as a scholar, then the family will go bankrupt and the family will be ruined.

And for this person who didn't pass the exam, if he was going to study, he himself would have to hang his head and bear the pressure of this kind of study, and if the family paid a huge price, the flesh and blood of all brothers and sisters would be lost He was sacrificed under the exam, which is also a huge pressure for conscientious people. Many people collapsed after taking the exam, and simply gave up the exam.

And in ancient times, reputation was very important. If this kind of thing is spread, even if he is admitted to the scholar and fame, he may not go far, so there is nothing much to do in the future, except for being able to become an official. Completing this kind of class leap can only make one's own family poor for several generations.

At this time, it may be necessary to adopt some disgraceful means to make a fortune, such as marrying the daughter of a merchant by marriage, or marrying the daughter of a eunuch who has problems and cannot marry, and sacrifice marriage to gain benefits.

Looking at it this way, it is a vicious circle, so if you don’t study, don’t study. People with conscience will feel that it is inappropriate to sacrifice the whole family to support a scholar. No one should pay for the future of others. own blood.

Therefore, when the family is not separated, it is inappropriate to send any family or child to study. If the family is separated, someone is particularly talented, the family is hardworking and motivated, and there are other ways to make money, then he himself It is possible to send children to study, but it is impossible to ask other people to help.

The elders in the family will first prohibit this from happening, and other brothers and sisters will also refuse such a thing.

Of course, if the elders in the family are eccentric, they just favor one of them as a child and have no ability to resist, and the education they have received since childhood is to contribute to the family, for the good of the family, everyone must sacrifice for the family .

Under such brainwashing since childhood, everyone will think that it is someone—such as the fourth uncle and fifth uncle, the third brother and the fourth brother. When they are in the future, they will definitely come back when they are prosperous, and they will not forget their kindness, and they will definitely mention them. They, they will be able to live a good life of getting the ascension of chicken and dog alone, but the possibility of this is actually very small.

In short, it was very difficult to produce a scholar in ancient times.If you can produce a scholar, you can be tax-free, if you can be a juren, you can be an official, if you can be a Jinshi, you can marry a family and have a brilliant future. Who doesn't want to study?However, how many people can read the head?
This will be the case soon, the whole family will offer Ji Laowu one, Ji’s eldest daughter’s eldest daughter’s twelve taels of dowry will buy pens and inks for Lao Wu, Ji’s second daughter will go to the landlord’s house in the city to work as a maid, and sell eight taels of betrothal gifts. , Ji Laosan's daughter was simply sold to a brothel, but Ji's old man and Ji's old lady did not tell their family members that they claimed that Ji Laosan's daughter was sold to other places, and of course they got 30 taels.Ji Lao San's daughter is sold, how can Ji Lao Si's daughter escape?
In this way, the men in the family worked hard as cows and horses, and planed food in the fields. Except for the daughter-in-law, all the granddaughters of the girls in the family were sold. How could the family be reconciled, especially the old man Ji and the old lady Ji, who were so angry that their hearts ached and they passed out on the spot.

"God, why is my life so hard! My son, I have cultivated it so hard, and if the son says it will be abolished, he will be abolished. These gods, why don't you go to the king of Hades to cook oil!"

"I don't live anymore, I don't live anymore, I don't live anymore!"

Mrs. Ji cried out, slapped her thighs, and sat on the ground unable to get up.

Old man Ji drooped his head and sat beside him without saying a word.

He actually wanted to cry too, yelling and cursing, but yes, he knew it was useless, what else could he do if things were already like this?
The current plan is to find a way to cover up this matter and use Juren's identity to make some profit.

He said: "After we go back, let's have a good discussion and make an appointment for the fifth brother as soon as possible. At this time, anyone is willing, so let's stop the Jiang family."

This remark surprised Mrs. Ji: "Old man, this..."

"Just do it like this, and you have to do the labor service as soon as possible. Think about it yourself. You will be like this in the future, but the family has spent so much money on you for so many years. You have to earn it back. You will have a good life in the future."

Granny Ji suddenly realized, and nodded again and again: "Yes, yes, what to do!"

As if he didn't hear what the two of them said, Mr. Ji was in a daze, silently immersed in his own thinking, oblivious to the outside world, as if he had lost his upgrade all of a sudden, and he couldn't be interested in anything.

Seeing him like this, old man Ji slapped him with hatred: "Why are you in a daze, fifth, I'm talking to you. Did you hear that? Go back. Well, let's make a marriage as soon as possible. Clean, you can have a good life no matter you don’t have children after the last period. You have so many brothers, even if you can’t give birth to yourself, it’s fine to give you the first one in the future. As long as this matter is hidden, we If we can hide it from the world, we can still have countless good days, we will talk to the doctor later, let him suffer as usual, and we must not disclose this news."

Mr. Ji's natural cleft mouth was formed by his slap, and he wanted to curse people angrily, but after hearing what old man Ji said, a wave of hope suddenly ignited in his desperate heart. Think about it, although what old man Ji said is not very It sounded good, and it stung his nerves, but overall it made sense.

He is already like this now, and he must not disclose the matter of his eunuch. It is best to declare to the outside world that the doctor cured his injury, and he has become a normal person again. He will marry a wife in the future to cover up this matter. Maybe there is still a chance of survival.

In short, whether he succeeds or not, he has to work hard.Now this fact is absolutely unacceptable to him.

"Have you read it? I'll tell the doctor about this matter. Don't be overthinking it, you know? Cooperate with us in the future." Old man Ji said.

Young Master Ji nodded, his whole body was listless.

However, old man Ji doesn't care, as long as there is a remedy, what does it matter what his fifth child looks like?
