The story of Princess Lenggong's farming

Chapter 143
Zhong Gensheng responded, and He Axiu said again: "Xiaohua and Dabao's original rooms are empty, and we have to move out the furniture to share with Second Treasure, Three Treasure and Four Treasure. Anyway, they won't be able to use it as a husband and wife anymore." ..."

"You can figure it out..." Zhong Gensheng said cheerfully.

He Axiu said helplessly: "You, you don't worry about anything, that's all, you only say that Sibao is also old, what do you think!?"

"Didn't you ask him last time? Didn't he say he was in charge?!" Zhong Gensheng said.

"I'm afraid the child is shy and embarrassed to say it. Why don't you ask him?!" He Axiu said: "You men talk to men, maybe he should talk..."

Zhong Gensheng nodded after thinking about it, and only smiled: "Forget it, I'll ask if I ask..."

He Axiu smiled and said: "Dabao is married, if he doesn't move, people in the village don't know what to say. Although Sibao was not born by us, he is not the only one in the family. I'm busy with Dabao, we have already treated his own son, you go and ask him carefully if there is a girl he likes, if there is, we will ask a matchmaker to hire him, if not, we will also look at each other , marry him a good family, and let them live a good life in the future, hehe..."

He Axiu said with a smile, obviously seeing the children get married and start a career, and there are people around her who care and take care of them, she really has an indescribable sense of satisfaction in her heart.

Zhong Gensheng smiled and said, "I'll just ask..."

After saying that, he had already left the house and walked to the front of Sibao's room. Sibao was startled when he saw him come in, froze for a moment, and then called daddy.

Zhong Gensheng responded, and said with a smile: "What are you doing?!"

Sibao smiled, and said: "I'm doing the accounting, and I have to show the local girls every day..."

"...Well." Zhong Gensheng smiled and said: "I just want to ask you, but if there is a girl you like, if you really have one, you must tell Dad, and Dad will ask your mother to help you. The matchmaker is going to say..."

Sibao's face turned red all of a sudden, last time He Axiu said it, why did Zhong Gensheng also say it? !Why did this couple focus on him? Although he is about the same age as Dabao, he really doesn't want to get married so early.

Sibao remained silent, and Zhong Gensheng wondered, "Why don't you talk?! There's nothing to be ashamed of, you can still laugh at you if you tell Dad, Sibao, tell me...?"

Sibao hesitated but didn't speak, just lowered his head.

Seeing that he couldn't make a fart with a stick for a long time, Zhong Gensheng was also very depressed, so he said: "Is there?! Or not? If not, father and mother will make decisions for you and go to the girl's house. If there is If it's suitable, just hire him back, how about it?!"

Sibao finally raised his head helplessly, and said, "...Father, I don't want to get married so early..."

Zhong Gensheng was taken aback for a moment, and then said: "Boys should be married, girls should be married, you are not too young, children as old as you in the village are basically not married, but also engaged. You are a good age. Why don't you want to get married?!"

In fact, Sibao really has no idea of ​​getting married, nor does he have that kind of concept. Unlike Dabao, he is in love with Niu Xiaohua. He really doesn't want to marry a strange woman and stay with him for the rest of his life. In case he wants to regret it later, Didn't he let himself and the other party down, it's not like buying something, you can return it...

He thought for a while, then found an excuse, and said: "...Father, it is said that men start a family first and then a career, but I still want to start a career first and then a family. Xiucai, I want to try, although I may not be able to pass, but what if I am lucky?! If I fail the exam, I will give up. If I pass the exam, I will talk about marriage at that time..."

Zhong Gensheng looked at him in surprise, and said: "...You didn't go to school, so can you still go to the scholar exam?!"

"I have learned everything that the second treasure and the third treasure have learned, and Tu Niu also said that I can take the exam..." Sibao said with a tingling scalp.

Zhong Gensheng paused for a moment, and said: "...Sibao, if you really want to take this road, father will not stop you, but if you want to take the exam, you should go to school like Erbao and Sanbao, right?! Father sent you go."

Sibao shook his head and said: "... If I leave, no one will do the work at home. Besides, I have also learned what they have learned. If you can hit it, it is a good thing. If you can't, it's fine. It's good to just concentrate on doing things..."

After all, Zhong Gensheng also felt sorry for this child who had been with him for a long time, and said: "...don't worry about no one working at home, but if you want to take the exam, just go to school, and dad will definitely pay for you..."

Sibao was moved for a while, but thinking of Tu Niu's words, he paused again, and said with a smile: "...Maybe I may not be a genius."

Zhong Gensheng didn't know how much he had learned, but he only knew that if he didn't go to school, it was impossible to pass the exam with unorthodox studies. Since he had this heart, Zhong Gensheng naturally asked him to provide for him, but this child was too sensible and worried about his family. No one was working, so he looked at him more distressedly and said: "...You child, why are you so stubborn, you just go..."

Sibao shook his head and said: "Father, I have my own ideas, don't worry about it, let's talk about it after I pass the exam, if I don't pass the exam, I will give up my mind to work at home and get married, how about it?!"

Zhong Gensheng paused, then sighed, and said: "...you child, it's the same if you get married and then take the exam. Well, you can do whatever you want, but the exam is still in the next year...you are so old , isn't it a delay?!"

Sibao chuckled lightly and said, "...what's the point if the boys are delayed?!"

"That's the truth, that's all, do whatever you want, I'll go and tell your mother, let her wait for two or three years before mentioning your matter..." Zhong Gensheng sighed helplessly and left again.

Seeing the back of Zhong Gensheng leaving, Sibao also sighed deeply, getting married...seemed a very distant thing to him, he couldn't imagine living with a strange woman, and being tied up for a lifetime, this It's just too scary.

Let’s talk about this kind of thing later, after finishing Zhong Gensheng, Sibao lowered his head and continued to read the book. He didn’t think about it before, but after being reminded by Shen Sisi, he also thought about passing the exam. Maybe it's the way out.

Anyway, he has read everything about the Second Treasure and Three Treasures, and he has his own opinions, and he will often discuss it with them. He doesn't think he is any worse than the one who didn't go to school.

You can give it a try, at least you can temporarily escape the road of getting married and pursue an official career. This is a ready-made excuse, and the Zhong family will not force him if you want to come.

As soon as Zhong Gensheng went back to the room and talked to He Axiu, He Axiu was stunned for a moment, and said: "...Since he has such thoughts, why don't we send him to school?!"

Zhong Gensheng sighed: "Don't worry about it, I've already asked, this child is sensible, so he won't do it anyway, saying that no one is working at home..."

He Axiu paused for a moment, and said: "Then what should we do?! He doesn't go to school, and he won't pass the exam in the next year. Wouldn't that mean another two years of work wasted? What about his marriage?!"

Zhong Gensheng said: "Boys who are delayed will be delayed. Our family is in a good position now. If you marry someone with too good conditions, you will definitely look down on our family, but it is no problem if you are from ten miles or eight villages. After two or three years, Let's leave some money for the Four Treasures to live on, and give them a generous dowry, so it's no problem to marry a decent one..."

"That's the truth..." He Axiu breathed a sigh of relief, "It's just that his marriage is not in a hurry, but about going to school, why don't we talk about him again..."

Zhong Gensheng shook his head and sighed: "Don't you know that he has lived in our house for a long time, but he is actually a stubborn person!? That temperament is not soft, only a local girl can control him, hey... I think he is already Having said that, she definitely refuses to go to school, and Tu Niu will definitely not let him go. The family is short of people to work. Tu Niu told me that she wants to hand over the workshop to him..."

"Tu Niu?!" He Axiu's heart moved slightly, she thought for a while and then calmed down, it's impossible, Tu Niu looks like a thin-haired monkey now, and she's no different from a boy baby, it's absolutely impossible for Sibao to treat her now The local girl thought about it, she put aside this annoying thought, and then said: "... If you don't send it to school, wouldn't it be a waste of two years of time?!"

Zhong Gensheng was silent for a while, and said: "I think he has learned a lot from Erbao and Sanbao, but I am really afraid that he will not pass the exam. After all, he is different from being taught by Mr. Lin himself. Axiu, what do you think?" What can we do?!"

He Axiu also sighed.Zhong Gensheng said helplessly: "I'm afraid he has other thoughts..."

"What's on your mind?!" He Axiu asked after a pause.

Zhong Gensheng said with a smile: "Either he hasn't enlightened yet, and he is afraid of getting married, or...he just looks down on the girls in this village, and I'm afraid they have some thoughts in their hearts."

He Axiu was taken aback for a moment, and said: "Could it be that after reading a few books, do you still want to marry a famous lady?!"

She said helplessly: "Sibao, please don't have such thoughts. Although our family is in a good family now, the only people who are suitable for us are people from these ten miles and eight villages. Don't say that he has no fame." Even if he is admitted to fame, how can those well-known families think highly of him? Our family background is too weak, and a well-known family must pay attention to being well-matched. If he is really so high-minded... This is difficult... ..."

Zhong Gensheng was also silent, and he said helplessly after a long time: "...Let's stop for two or three years first, Axiu, what do you think!? If he really has such thoughts, we have to find a way to correct it... ..."

"Yeah." Ah Hexiu also felt that there was nothing to do, so she said, "I don't know what to say about us in the village... Now I don't know how many people are greedy for the four treasures. The big treasure got married, the second treasure and the third treasure read books. , People knew that there was no hope, so they all stared at Sibao, knowing that he was capable. A few days ago, someone asked if Sibao was engaged. If the quality is good, then hire them, hey..."

"Don't think too much, next time someone asks, you just say that the Four Treasures are going to take the exam..." Zhong Gensheng said.

He Axiu sighed, "How easy is that?!"

Zhong Gensheng was also very helpless, and said: "That's right, the second treasure and the third treasure are his own. They were sent to the school, and the fourth treasure stayed at home to work. They didn't send them to the school. They don't know what to say. They probably thought we didn't want to marry the fourth treasure." The daughter-in-law made up this excuse. The villagers only knew that he would settle accounts, but they didn't know that he also studied with the second treasure and the third treasure... You think we are such people, how can we treat them differently? Obedient and sensible, only those who really hurt..."

"It's hard to be a human, but, our Zhong family is not always talked about by the villagers. In the past, they would pick out things to talk about, but now they even talk about it. Forget it, we don't care about this, we have to care about this." , we don’t have to live anymore..." He Axiu said with a smile: "We will also help Sibao with some work in the future. Since he refuses to study, let him have more free time at home and read more books. Literacy is always a good thing whether you can pass the exam..."
