Abandoned Daughter's Beautiful Pastoral

Chapter 360: I'll be a success
Zhang Dazhu laughed and said: "My kid is not a student, and I don't expect him to be a scholar. I just hope that he can read more, don't be blind, and go out in the future to make a living!"

The always honest Zhang honestly wanted to jump up and beat him up, he looked at Zhang Dazhu jealously, his eyes were red: "Hmph, your kid has been praised by Mr. several times, you are not laughing at us by saying this The child is stupid?"

The others also looked indignant. This guy's youngest son was originally clever and clever, and he was often mischievous on weekdays, but who would have thought that he was still a student, and when his own child came back, he always said that the husband praised him for being smart, and was praised by the husband for a long time. Now, that child also became quiet and polite, studied harder, and left his friends who went to school together farther away!
Zhang Dazhu knew that he had committed the "public anger", so he didn't even dare to say: "This kid looks obedient now, but I am his father, how can I not know his temperament? I am afraid that in two years, I am tired of reading and use a bull I don’t even want to go with the whip!”

When the others heard it, they burst out laughing. When they thought of the child's jumping temper, they thought it was possible, and they felt a little more balanced. However, no matter what, it is a fact that their children are smart, so they can only go home and have a good time. Urging my own children to work harder, the difference is too far, and they will lose face when they go out!

Zhang Xiaocao looked at it with a smile, thinking that this kind of life is very good. Although the village is not without conflicts, and everyone likes to compare with each other, but people's hearts are still simple. of!

At this time, Zhang Dazhu thought of something, and said to Grandma Zhang: "Auntie, our village had a good cotton harvest last year, and everyone's life is much easier. Originally, each family planned to pay a share to repair the old ancestral hall and celebrate it, but last year Xiaocao The girl's entry into Beijing will be delayed. Now that Mu Hua has been selected as a scholar, this is a great joy for our Zhang family. It must be a good time, so I thought that I should wait for the ancestral hall to be repaired, and do the two things together. This is such a joy!"

When the others heard it, they also looked at Grandma Zhang. The ancestral hall should have been repaired long ago, but everyone’s life was difficult before. The patriarch just wanted to mention it, but he didn’t have the ability. , together with Muhua's affairs, everyone is happy!

Grandma Zhang subconsciously looked at her granddaughter, wanting to hear her opinion.

Zhang Xiaocao didn't know that they had discussed this matter in private, but she couldn't do it just because she came to Beijing. Everyone's attention and respect for her made her not moved, it was a lie!

After pondering for a moment, he said: "The ancestral hall must be built, and it is also a major event in our village. When will everyone get together again, discuss it carefully, and then let the patriarch choose a good day to start construction. As for Mu Huazhong A scholar is also considered a happy event for everyone. When the time comes, the money for repairing the ancestral hall will be shared among everyone. After the repair is completed, the wedding event will be held together, and all the money for the banquet will be paid by my family. At that time, everyone will come to help. What do you think?"

On that day, the news that Mu Hua passed the examination as a scholar spread throughout Zhangjia Village, and the villagers were all proud of having another scholar in the village, especially those from the Zhang clan, who were even more honored. There are three generations of the Zheng family, not only two scholars, but also a Juren who got Jieyuan, but they are not members of the Zhang family, and the joy can't be compared with them!

Mu Hua, who was the person involved, didn't know this at all, and slept soundly in bed until it was completely dark, when he woke up from hunger and had to get up.

He knew that his sister and grandma must be busy in the kitchen at this time, so after getting up to clean up, he went directly to the kitchen. Sure enough, he saw his sister was cooking, grandma was sitting and lighting the fire, and the grandfather and grandson were talking and laughing, very warm.

Mu Hua leaned against the door frame, watching this warm scene under the weak candlelight with a smile, feeling warm in his heart!

Zhang Xiaocao turned around to scoop up water, and saw Mu Hua standing by the door smiling softly. Compared with his usual desolate and indifferent appearance, he was very different!
"You are up, come in quickly, are you hungry? There are ready dishes, you can eat some padding first, and the meal will be ready soon!"

Grandma Zhang also saw her grandson and beckoned him to come over. Seeing that he was wearing thick clothes, she asked kindly, "I've only slept all afternoon, haven't you slept well yet? After dinner, you can sleep well again." Night, tomorrow will be fine!"

Mu Hua smiled and shook his head: "Sleep well, I used to sleep for more than three hours a day in the academy, but I'm a little hungry!"

In front of his relatives, he has nothing to hide!
When Grandma Zhang heard this, she felt even more distressed. She used to know that her grandson was studying hard, so how could she think that she only slept for more than three hours a day, and he was still growing up!
"Now you don't go to the academy to study anymore, you can take advantage of this time to rest at home and make your body strong, so grandma can rest assured that you go to the military camp!"

Speaking of this, she choked up again, she couldn't stop her grandson's determination to enter the military camp, and now she accepted this fact, but when she thought of her grandson leaving home soon, she felt very sad!

Mu Hua sighed secretly, stood beside grandma, patted her on the back lightly, but didn't say anything!
Zhang Xiaocao didn't want the good atmosphere to freeze like this, so she persuaded: "Grandma, Mu Hua went to the military camp to exercise himself. It's a good thing that he is self-motivated. When he comes back, he will be the pillar of our family. You are like this now, Mu Hua Hua looks uncomfortable too!"

After hearing what her granddaughter said, Grandma Zhang quickly wiped away her tears, and held Mu Hua's hand without speaking!
Zhang Xiaocao breathed a sigh of relief, and took the opportunity to find a happy topic: "Mu Hua, tell grandma about your exam fun, I heard before that the exam is very hard, and some people are carried out!"

Mu Hua knew what her sister meant, and nodded with a smile: "Yes, there are several examination rooms in the county court, and I was in the second examination room. As soon as the questions came out, an old man passed out. I heard it was I took the exam for most of my life!"

"Oh, I've passed the test as an old man, why don't I want to open some, amuse my grandson at home, and raise flowers!"

Sure enough, Grandma Zhang's attention was attracted and she expressed her opinion on this matter!

Zhang Xiaocao said with a smile: "It's our grandma who is open-minded. That old man is too persistent. I guess there are not only his own reasons, but also the opinions of the people around him. The more he fails the exam, the more he wants to pass the exam. He feels that he has been in the exam for a lifetime. , If you can’t become a scholar in the end, you will be laughed at by others, and in this way, a vicious circle will be formed, with a bad mood and poor endurance, how can you calm down to study and take exams?”

Grandma Zhang nodded in agreement, and warned Mu Hua: "Your sister is right, you have to listen carefully. Grandma knows that you have great ambitions and wants to become a great general, but how can you become a general if you want? Grandma I don't expect you to shine in the family, I just hope that you always think in your heart that there are grandma and sister who are looking forward to your return every day!"
