Chapter 154

Originally, they were still counting on Qin Dafu's failure to put pressure on the Liu family together, even if Qin Dafu had spoken.They thought about closing the door at Dafang's own house, and Qin Dafu wanted to listen to Liu Shi, but now in front of his mother-in-law and sister-in-law, they forced Qin Dafu to agree, and Liu Shi couldn't bear the face of a man. That's it.

And Mrs. Zhang just wanted to put pressure on them to let Erxian study, and then get him to agree to the marriage, and even force them to send Xiuyao to Zhou's house.As long as you hold your son, Liu's is nothing!She doesn't care who reads or not.

Unexpectedly, the son suddenly seemed to be a different person. He was different from before. Even if she disagreed with what she said before, he would not object.

Mrs. Zhang suddenly felt uncomfortable. Her darling grandson didn't want to see her, and her eldest son, who had always obeyed her, didn't obey her. She shouted all of a sudden, "Go, go, don't come when you go. Don't Forget whose son you are."

Qin Dafu stopped, turned around and said, "Mother, what are you talking about? Why didn't I come after I left? This is my parents' home, where would I go if I don't come here? Er Xian, you won't let me teach , you insist on giving him to study and say that he is the material, then how can I be a disobedient mother, you can teach him."

Seeing what his father said, Qin Xian said angrily, "Nurse, third lady, I will follow you, you believe in me, I will pass the exam."

The smiles on the faces of the third aunt and the second aunt were even colder than the ice skates in winter. The third aunt hurriedly said: "You child, what are you talking about? You have parents. Even if I want to raise you, I can't do it, isn't it?" Let someone poke your parents and my spine. People say that your parents don't raise children, that you are not filial, and you have to say that I provoke the relationship between your father and son. That's not okay."

Qin Xian glanced at her, then at Mrs. Zhang, "Nurse, didn't you say..."

Mrs. Zhang couldn't hold back, she was instigated by the third aunt, so she followed the words of the third aunt, asking her to pay for Qin Xian to study, it was not a dream!Qin Xian only knew a few words and read two pages of the book, how can he rely on this number one scholar?Let her take the money, it's not for her life, but for her coffin book!
Qin Xian stared at them in a daze, "Nurse, don't you tell me that my parents must agree to let me study, if they don't agree, you will pay for me?"

Zhang said angrily: "Where do I have money for you? You have also seen that the whole family can't get enough to eat, and I still pay for your schooling."

Qin Xian looked at the third aunt again, these days the third aunt was the best for him, she often came to explain to him, she also said that she believed in him and was willing to pay for him.He was moved for a moment, and put all his previous worries behind him, and told them about how his mother, Feng's family, and Zhang Guifang weaved gloves. He also said that he could make a lot of money, and he told them everything he knew.

The third aunt said awkwardly: "If you want to hate Erxian, you should hate your parents. How can there be such parents who turn against their children when they say they are against each other? Look, your mother is too cruel and partial." After saying that, she left .

Qin Xian asked loudly, "That's not what you said when you lied to me."

Mrs. Zhang reprimanded: "Don't worry about it, go home and sleep, it's crowded here." She saw through Mrs. Liu and said that she was ruthless, but her daughter-in-law was ruthless.After saying that, Mrs. Zhang went down to pack her things, not caring about Qin Xian or anything else.

Qin Xian was a little dazed for a while, when Qin Ergui and the others over there heard the movement and came to look at it, Mrs. Zhang scolded: "There's nothing to see, just go to sleep, you have to get up early."

Qin Xian's fighting spirit and hope, which had been burning fiercely, were suddenly thrown to the ground. He turned his head and walked away as if he didn't know them.After walking a few steps, I could still hear the third aunt's sneering and contemptuous laughter, "I don't even look at how sinking I am, thinking that I can really read."

Qin Xian walked very fast, but bumped into someone at the door, he didn't care, and ran away.

Qin Ye, who came to see the situation, quickly caught up, "Er Xian, what are you doing?"

Qin Xian didn't care, he kept running, he didn't know where he was going, so he ran over when he saw the road, and finally ran to the edge of the river cliff behind the village in one breath.His heart was full of despair and anger, he didn't pay attention at all, his feet slipped and he fell down.

He was so frightened that he yelled, but his back tightened and he was grabbed by someone, and then Qin Ye's painful voice came from behind him, "Er Xian, you, why are you so overwhelmed!"

Qin Xian didn't want to die at all, and even though there was water at the bottom of the river, he couldn't drown him, he just got distracted and didn't pay attention.Seeing that the eldest brother held him back, he became angry again, "Brother, let me go, let me die. I'm just a bastard, I don't have eyes. They really helped me, who knew they were using me, I'd better die, anyway, my parents don't want me anymore."

Qin Ye couldn't hold him back with one hand, so he didn't care so much when he saw Qin Xian sliding down, so he hurriedly pulled him with both hands, although they both knew how to swim, but there were water plants in the dark place, and it might not be possible to climb up if they fell.Qin Ye pulled him and said, "Erxian, what are you talking about? How did the elder brother tell you? The elder brother will definitely let you study. Father and mother will not be angry with you, they are just giving you a chance to let you go." Just look at who is your family."

The second one is obsessed with the authorities, thinking that the third lady is really for his own good, but she doesn't know that she just has bad intentions.

Qin Xian also knew that the third aunt was not in the right mind, looked down on her, and didn't talk much on weekdays. This time, seeing her spare no effort to help him, comfort him, and speak for him, he was gradually confused.I think San Niangniang is actually a good person, but I thought badly about her before.Unexpectedly, he told them the family secrets and disobeyed his parents. In the end, they took advantage of him, and kicked him out without even acting.

He is so stupid, he is doing well now, his parents have offended him, let alone studying, even living a life is probably impossible.He regretted it to the point of death, but there was nothing he could do. Seeing his elder brother come looking for him, he couldn't help but get angry.

Qin Ye saw that his mind was a little active, "Erxian, you are a smart person. You were confused and confused for a while, just wake up. Look at our little sisters, they think about how to make money every day, not for the sake of making money Live a good life at home. The younger sister was with me that day, and when you raise pigs and have extra money, if you want to study, it will not be difficult, and she will help you tell your parents."

Qin Xian thought of Xiuyao's smiling little face, he didn't give her a good look these days, and she didn't seem to want to pay attention to him, "Brother, stop coaxing me, little sister will kiss you and Yang Yang, won't you?" Kiss me. If you have money, you will marry a wife and let Yangyang study, she will not care about me."

Qin Ye was so painful that beads of sweat rolled down, he gritted his teeth and said, "Why are you still so stubborn, you don't know who Yaoyao is, and whenever she speaks big things, she always does whatever she wants, never Not asking for credit or showing off."

Qin Xian wanted to say something else, but Qin Ye didn't tell him too much, and dragged him up with all his strength, and the two of them fell to the ground, Qin Ye only felt the pain in his right hand.

Qin Xian cried and fell to the ground: "Big brother, big brother, you are good to me. Why are you good to me? I'm not worth it, woo woo woo."

Qin Ye endured the pain and said: "Erxian, you are still young, you will know when you are older. We are a family. Although San Niangniang and the others are also family members, they are not as close as parents. Parents will not blame you, you Kowtow at home and admit your mistake."

Xiuyao had analyzed it for him before. Mother just wanted to sound the alarm for Qin Xian, give them a chance to perform, and let Qin Xian see if the third aunt and nanny were really doing it for his own good, or just using it to he.

The situation in front of him shows that it has worked, and Qin Xian has also realized the cruelty of reality.

"Er Xian, you should grow up." Qin Ye endured the pain and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Qin Xian cried: "Brother, I know, I know what I should do."

He helped Qin Ye up, "Brother, let's go home."

The two brothers returned home, Xiuyao and the others were waiting at the door, seeing them coming back, hurriedly let them in, and then closed the door.

After entering the room, Qin Xian still hesitated, Qin Ye gave him winks, Qin Xian gritted his teeth, and went to the east room to see his mother mending clothes on the kang, while his father sat there talking to her.

Knowing that he came in, neither of them looked up at him.

Qin Xian felt a little humiliated, but there was no other way. He knelt down and cried, "Father, mother, I was wrong, I'm an asshole, I won't dare to do this again in the future, I must be obedient, Respect older brothers and sisters, love younger sisters, and work hard."

Qin Dafu quietly tugged on Liu Shi's skirt, Liu Shi looked at Qin Xian, and said, "Er Xian, you are a smart person, but don't dislike your mother's words, sometimes your cleverness is a little cleverness, you always think As long as you are smart, everyone else is stupid. As you can see, you are still a child, and your third lady is smarter and more realistic than you."

Qin Xian shed tears, "Mother, I know, I will never dare again after I make a mistake."

Liu Shi sighed, "Just remember what you said today. Get up. Your father and I have also considered it. If you really want to study, we will give you a three-year chance."

When Qin Xian heard this, he froze in front of the kang, looked at it in disbelief, suspected that there was something wrong with his ears, and his mother agreed?
Mrs. Liu continued: "You are fourteen this year, and we will give you three years. If you fail to pass the exam as a scholar, you should give up. If you pass, we will give you a few more years, and we will supply you even if you sell everything. If you don’t pass the exam, you’ll come back and farm the land to save money, and the family will marry you a wife, do you like it?”

Qin Xian burst into tears, "Middle! Mom, look, I'm sure I can pass the exam."

Mrs. Liu sighed, this Erxian always thinks highly of herself, she said: "It's the best to pass the exam, and it's not for nothing if you fail the exam, it's always useful to know how to read."

Qin Xian's heart was filled with ecstasy, and he was able to read! ! !He seemed to see that he was selected as a scholar, and his mother and third aunt came to curry favor with him, and his parents wept with joy. Begging him to let them go.

Mrs. Liu looked at him and said, "Er Xian, it is thanks to your older brother and your younger sister that you can study. You should always be grateful, don't take everything for granted, and don't always feel that others should sacrifice for you. deserves to be treated like this.”

Qin Xian nodded, let his tears flow down his clothes, and said in a sobbing voice, "Mother, I remember." Then he said again: "I was an asshole that day, I will apologize to my mother and sisters, I shouldn't call you an asshole." In other words, you shouldn't be so selfish, you shouldn't listen to the instigation of Nanny and San Niangniang, and think that my sister should be a girl for me."

Liu Shi nodded. She just wanted her son to admit his mistakes and know who is good and who is bad. Otherwise, if she worked hard to pull her eldest son, even if she got ahead, it would not be for the good of the family.

Seeing her nodding, Qin Ye stepped forward to help him.

Qin Xian knelt down until his legs went numb, and grabbed Qin Ye, who couldn't help crying out in pain.

Xiuyao watched from the side, seeing that her elder brother's face was not looking well, she quickly asked, "Brother, do you have a pain in your arm?"

Qin Ye hurriedly smiled and said, "That's not true, my arm is already on the mend."

Qin Xian couldn't help but change his face when he heard this, but he didn't say anything.

In the following days, Qin Xian was like a different person, rushing to work at home, not lazy when he went to the field, caring for Xiuyao and Qin Yang, and respecting his brothers and sisters. Seeing his change, everyone Very happy.

The Liu family asked Qin Dafu to take Erxian to the school in the Zhou family ancestral hall in the village. The husband is Lizheng Zhou Suren's cousin, Zhou Huiren.The family was relatively rich at the time, because he was studying and took the scientific examinations again and again. The family's money, food and land were sold, but he failed the exams, and he is still a boy.But it is said that he has good knowledge, even better than a scholar, but for some reason, he just failed the exam.

Qin Dafu took Qin Xian to visit his teacher, Zhou Huiren sighed, he also vaguely heard about the second son of the Qin family fussing over his studies, and felt that he gave him hope with a casual remark at that time. Pull up your spirits and teach Qin Xian well.

Zhou Huiren asked him to go after spring planting and farming, and stipulated that he must help at home for spring planting, summer harvesting, and autumn harvesting every year in the future. At other times, mainly in winter, he must concentrate on studying.

As for the cost, it is naturally the same as others.Because the school is mainly funded by the uncle of the Zhou family, for the convenience of the Zhou family's children to study, and at the same time, other villagers with surnames in Taoyuan can also go to study.It's just that the tuition fee is different. If you are a disciple of Uncle Zhou's family, you can enroll for free.And if you are a child with a foreign surname, you have to borrow to study, borrow from the Zhou family school, borrow from Mr. Zhou's family, and in addition to paying for the school, you have to pay extra food to the school, which is regarded as the admission fee.The entry fee is one stone of grain a year, which is a very heavy entry fee for ordinary people.

And the schedule is determined by the teacher, and Zhou Huiren will adjust the schedule according to the age and content of the students.If the purpose of coming here is only for literacy, it is naturally different from the purpose of taking part in the scientific examination.Seven or eight-year-old children are different from teenagers.

Qin Xian is already 14 years old, he is considered an older student, and ordinary schools do not like to accept him, because he will learn things slowly when he is old.And he still wants to take the examination of scholar, so the pressure on the husband will be even greater.Generally, they will ask for more intensive training, and the teacher will be more strict at that time, urging the students to study hard.

Zhou Huiren accepted him and paid him one sling a year, and paid it off in three installments. If he didn't feel a little guilty, it is reasonable to charge one and a half to two slings.After all, scholars are all wealthy families, and ordinary families who have problems with food and clothing are not very good at sending their children to study, so Shuxiu is definitely not cheap.

After all, for them, reading is a luxury for the rich, not a livelihood for those who work in the fields.

In order to pay for Qin Xian's study, the family's burden suddenly became a lot heavier, and it was not a small amount for a stone of food and a drop of money.

Mrs. Liu didn't say much, just asked him to study hard, since he promised him, he would definitely do it, and let him remember what he said that day.

But Qin Dafu also has something on his mind, because the family used money to let Erxian go to study, and Zhang had a lot of opinions.I think he is wasting money, why don't you buy livestock with so much money?You can order it together, why not buy land?If you insist on letting a half-baked person study, what can you expect from reading?

Qin Dafu was scolded like a dog, but he didn't dare to talk back, because since Zhang Shi didn't show face and followed his wife away that time, Zhang Shi said that he was uncomfortable and sick, and when he saw Qin Dafu, his nose was not his nose. , the face is not the face, and he keeps saying that he is not filial, and Qin Dafu is forced to feel lumps in his heart.

Mrs. Zhang wanted to force him to get the money back, not to study for Er Xian, and to save money to buy livestock, but Qin Dafu couldn't help it.Liu Shi, as long as she made up her mind, she would be a radish and a pit. Now she promised Erxian to study, no matter who said it would not work, and she promised three years is three years, and she will not break her promise.

And Qin Dafu didn't want Erxian to have any regrets, so it was impossible to listen to Zhang's.But whoever is told by his own mother that he is not filial all day long will feel uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Qin Dafu has many children, and the Liu family is not a dull and selfish person. Xiuyao was the first to guess what Qin Dafu was thinking, and tried to divert his attention as much as possible to keep him busy and happy. Have a good time.
