Quick Transmigration: After becoming beautiful, I am numb

Chapter 1138 I speak for the Three Views

Without Ling Wuya's "aggressiveness", Ling Lie could hardly open his mouth.

"Brother Lie, tell me quickly! You, you—"

Boss Ling was so anxious that he couldn't even speak.

As a biological father, he is still aware of whether his son is studying seriously.

At most, he didn't know that his thirteen-year-old son had already been hooked into a gambling addiction.

Boss Ling only thought that his son had "taken" money from his fellow students in the academy, or that he had "picked up" an unexpected fortune.

And this is also very dangerous.

Boss Ling knew that his son was not that hardworking, but he still hoped that his son could bring glory to his family.

Even if he fails to pass the imperial examination in the future, he still has to find a way to coax his family into continuing his studies.

Their entire family benefits from having a son who is studying.

For example, Boss Ling always calls himself the father of a scholar. He usually avoids menial tasks such as working in the fields whenever he can.

Another example is Erya from the eldest family, who is fourteen years old this year. It is also because she has a younger brother who can read. He is obviously a farm girl, but he is raised like a young lady.

When the matchmakers in the countryside talk about marriage, they always say that Erya is not an ordinary village girl.

My younger brother is studying in the county academy and will definitely get the top prize in the future.

...It can be said that the entire big house's superior status in the Ling family is all due to having a scholar.

The idea of ​​Mr. and Mrs. Ling is very crude:

If your son is really useless, even if he is just pretending, he must continue to pretend!

But once he does something bad and is exposed, his son's true face will be exposed, and then their family will——

Almost in a blink of an eye, the boss and his wife thought of so much.

"Brother Lie, tell me quickly!"

Mr. Ling and his wife were almost crying.

People around him also urged, "Yes, yes! Ten taels of silver is not a small amount, Number One Scholar, how did you get it?"

Ling Lie knew that he could no longer remain silent.

As soon as he closed his eyes and gritted his teeth, Ling Lie said: "I won!"

He didn't have the nerve to say the word "gamble" after all.

Winning money is better than gambling.

Well, how can something about scholars be called "gambling"?

Ling Lie tried to play a word game, but the shrewd Aunt Ling refused.

In the past few years, she has been staring at Ling Lie, trying to find his fault.

Now that Ling Lie has given him the clue, Aunt Ling will naturally not let it go: "You won? Oh my God, are you gambling?"

The word "bet" is absolutely terrifying.

All the villagers around were frightened.

"Huh? Gambling?"

"No way, how old is Brother Lie?"

"Thirteen years old, not too young. In our village, you can work as a half-laborer in the fields!"

"Yes, yes, we can even talk about getting married."

At the age of thirteen, it is neither too big nor too small.

Especially in rural areas, where labor is needed, children as young as three or four must learn to collect firewood and feed chickens and ducks.

When you are seven or eight years old, you can go to the fields with your parents.

At the age of thirteen or fourteen, you can basically do farm work by yourself.

In other words, Ling Lie was a scholar, and the Ling family did their best to support him in studying. They didn't want him to waste his time, so they didn't ask him to go to the fields.

Needless to say, the other thirteen or fourteen-year-old children in the village, even Ling Wu, who was three years younger than Ling Lie, had already started working in the fields with his grandfather and father.

The biggest reason why Aunt Ling is angry is the obvious contrast between Ling Lie and Ling Wu!

"...I, I can't help it."

"We can't really let our family sell the fifth sister!"

Ling Lie noticed that the public opinion was going in the wrong direction and quickly changed the situation. He looked guilty and said, "My family is in a difficult situation, but I know how to spend money when studying."

"I want to help my family share the burden, but I really can't think of any other way -"

After hearing this, everyone couldn't help but nod.

Although children as young as thirteen can work in the fields.

However, it is very difficult to earn ten taels or even more silver.

Ling Lie's eyes and tone are very sincere, and he has the aura of a protagonist, which can arouse emotions.

The people around him were somewhat convinced.

Gu Qingcheng suddenly said, "Why can't you do anything? Brother, you are a scholar. I heard that scholars can sell money even if they write a word!"

Doesn’t Dafang always brag about how well his son studies and how awesome he is?

Then why can't we exchange knowledge for money?

In ancient times, the most common way for poor students to make money was by copying books or writing letters for them.

It may be a bit harder, but you can still make money.

After all, the average person in ancient times was illiterate, and knowledge was money!

Ling Lie: ...If I were not the original owner, I would also make money by copying books.

But the problem is, I'm not.

I want to clear my name for the original owner.

But the original owner really gambled money, and it lasted for less than half a year.

Maybe not many people have heard of it, but it’s not a secret after all.

If it is not dealt with in time, it will also explode in the future.

Ling Lie originally wanted to push this matter to make money, but he happened to save Ling Wuya in time.

All whitewashing and compensation were taken into consideration, perfect!

But...

"Yeah yeah!"

Although Aunt Ling is shrewd, she is limited by her knowledge and experience.

Gu Qingcheng's words reminded Third Aunt Ling. There was an old boy in her natal village who usually helped people read and write letters, helped keep accounts for weddings and weddings, and wrote couplets for people during the New Year...

There are various kinds of things, although they don't make a lot of money, they can still support the family.

Ling Lie is not a child yet, but he is "awesome".

Didn’t Dafang say that he would definitely be admitted to the top prize?

Since they are all top picks, why don’t they know how to make money by writing?

Do you have to gamble? !

Gambling money is fatal.

Nine times out of ten you lose.

The Ling family tightened their belts so that he could study, but in the end he went to gamble.

As for my son, he is so smart and wants to study so much, but his family always tells him that he has no money!

Of course there is no money. All the money has been squandered by Lin Lie. Where can there be money? !

As for Ling Lie's explanation: "Grandpa! Dad! I, I just took the gamble this once!" Third Aunt Ling didn't believe a word of it.

the first time?

Oh, you know where the gambling shop is heading for the first time?

Do you know how to bet? Can you still win so much by gambling?

Just a liar.

In anger, Third Aunt Ling even thought of forming an alliance——

She raised her eyes and saw "Ling Wuya" with tears on her face. An idea flashed in her mind, and Aunt Ling blurted out: "Did you start it last year?"

"What do you mean by giving a gift? In fact, it's just gambling with money?"

"Oh my poor fourth girl, you, you are so unjust!"

Gu Qingcheng silently gave Third Aunt Ling a thumbs up.

She knew that Aunt Ling was definitely a great teammate.

It's not in vain that she deliberately dragged her into the situation.

In the original plot, Ling Wuya was sold, and only Dafang got the benefit.

Sanfang had no interest in the whole thing, and Third Aunt Ling just watched the show.

Later, Ling Lie took the twenty taels of money he won and became the hero who saved Ling Wuya.

Third Aunt Ling also wanted to have a seizure - whether Ling Wuya could be saved or not had nothing to do with her.

But Ling Lie's gambling was a major issue for the entire Ling family.

However, before Third Aunt Ling could make a sudden output, Ling Lie said generously: "With these twenty taels of silver, the family can be more relaxed."

"Grandma, let your second brother also go to school."

Since her family had benefited, the "financier" was still Ling Lie, so Aunt Ling shut up immediately.

Gambling is bad?

Oops, that's the loser, but our Brother Lie won.

Not only did Third Aunt Ling not take advantage of this incident to cause trouble, she also tried her best to help Ling Lie make amends.

With the twenty taels he won back, Ling Lie successfully cleared his name and successfully maintained Ling Lie's transcendent status in the Ling family!

Gu Qingcheng: ...It's a pity that you may not be able to do it this time.

Because Gu Qingcheng shouted those words, the benefactor who helped Ling Wu study changed from Ling Lie to her "Ling Wuya".

Let Third Aunt Ling know that even without the money Ling Lie got back, Ling Wu could still study.

You can keep reading!

Without the filter of "favor" and without the worries of Shu Xiu in the future, Aunt Ling could treat Ling Lie very harshly.

"Father! Mom! Look, this is your great grandson!"

"The family even sold their children just to support his education, but in the end, he went to gamble!"

"Betting, but we bankers dare to take part in it?"

"This is your first time? Bah! It's full of lies!"

"Let me tell you, the fourth girl was the one who lost the bet by you!"

Third Aunt Ling's fighting power was absolutely fierce. While scolding Ling Lie, she cried and howled Ling Siya.

Instead of successfully clearing his name, Ling Lie peeled off a layer of skin.

Mr. Ling and his wife were also shocked.

No matter how much they tried to disguise their son, they never thought of letting him gamble.

Because as Aunt Ling scolded, gambling is really not allowed.

Nine out of ten bets will result in loss, and if you gamble, your family will be ruined.

There is a bloody example in the village next door. He was a landlord before, but because of the word "gamble", the land passed down by his ancestors was gone, his wife ran away, and his children were sold.

In the end, the man's hand was chopped off by the debt collection thugs. Oh, what a miserable end!

Thinking of this, Boss Ling shuddered.

It is the eldest daughter-in-law who responds quickly, or in other words, she dotes on her precious son more.

She took a step forward, stood in front of Ling Lie, and shouted at the top of her lungs: "Didn't our brother Lie win?"

"A total of twenty taels! The fifth girl was also redeemed by my son!"

Why are you mentioning Siya? They are all goods that have been sold at a loss.

Even Wuya would have been sold if her brother Lie hadn't come back in time!

If we look at it carefully, even if the son has no merit, his merits and demerits are equal to each other.

The eldest daughter-in-law frowned, acting like a bear parent.

"Pooh!"

Aunt Ling is full of firepower. The key is that when she quarrels, her brain will not short-circuit and she can always perform exceptionally:

"You still have the nerve to talk about Wu Yatou. Isn't it right to redeem Wu Yatou?"

"If it wasn't to raise money for Ling Lie, would my parents sell Wuya?"

"What kind of poetry meeting? What kind of son of the county's distinguished family? Damn it, Ling Lie must have used this money to gamble!"

"Also, did you win the bet? What did he bet on to win? Gambling requires capital—"

This time I was lucky and the bet won!

But if you lose the bet, it’s all money saved by your family through frugality.

Gu Qingcheng silently gave Aunt Ling a thumbs up again.

The executor in the small dark room was dumbfounded...
