Liu An Hua Ming You Yi Village

Chapter 58

It's just that this time I heard that there is no food in the mountain, and I have to go out to flee famine, so Mrs. Zhang gave up this thought again.

Otherwise, if she gets married, then the whole family will have to come and eat and drink for free. She won't do such a loss-making business.

After Mrs. Liu went back to the town, she was a little unhappy. Du Youliang felt sorry for her and was busy serving her before and after. Mrs. Liu said to Du Youliang, "Why did our old aunt suddenly ask Yu'er to follow her to her house?" Now?" Although they live in the town now, Liu knows that all of this is not their own. If that brother-in-law has no rights at hand, let alone them, even Liu'er will be unlucky. Mrs. Liu doesn't want to do Yangliu Village.

Doing farm work is already far away for Mrs. Liu.

Now that the old aunt is walking around with her family again, she should be closer to her side, since she still has Taoer at her family.

Speaking of which, Tao'er is a girl that the Liu family doesn't like. Although she is her own daughter, compared with Liu'er, she is not half as smart as Liu'er.

If it weren't for their smart eldest daughter, they wouldn't be able to live such a good life now.

Mrs. Liu went back to Yangliu Village this time. Apart from making people envious, she also inquired about some things, mainly about the Du family's courtyard, and among them was the fact that Mrs. Chen came over.

Because Mrs. Zhang also came over to make a fuss, most people know it well.

Du Youliang hurriedly said: "To be honest, my old aunt can see the good in her eyes, and she won't do anything that is not good. We are all her nephews, but we haven't seen her since we were young. Treat us well, dislike us for being from the countryside, and have not been with us for a long time."

Du Youliang remembers one time when he was still half a boy, he wanted to go to his aunt's house in the next town, so that he could have a full meal, but he didn't even let him in, and said he was a liar. I don't know him.

At that time, Du Youliang was also very angry. It would be nonsense to say that the Du family and the Chen family did not know about it!

But he didn't dare to tell his mother about this, because he was afraid that she would slap her and say that he had humiliated her.

Mrs. Liu said with a smile: "Not all people in the world are like this. At any rate, our Liu'er is also related to the Qin family. The old aunt knows that she may not want to befriend us. Speaking of which, we are juniors, so we should bring some gifts to us. The Chen family paid a visit." In short, there is no harm.

On Liu'er's side, it will take several years to wait for someone who can really become the young master. Now if he has a good relationship with the Chen family, he won't be looked down upon.

In short, make more friends with people who are more capable than yourself, then it will definitely be useful in the future.

The couple here are discussing, and they will go to Chen's house a few days later, and they can be regarded as entering the door of Chen's house. Mrs. Liu is the kind of person who can pretend, not to mention Du Youliang's mouth. She was cut off by the Qi family, and now that the Qi family's son is here to curry favor with her, she is happy in her heart, thinking, the son you don't like, I will just praise him, it's better to follow me, the only one on your side is Regret the bad luck.

Mrs. Chen Du and Mrs. Liu expressed their wish respectively, but who knew that they got another piece of news that Du Youzhong from Yangliu Village in Panshui Town was selected as a scholar!

"It's impossible!" Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Liu immediately concluded that someone made a mistake.How could someone like the old Du family have achieved fame?

Mr. Du has been studying all his life, and he hasn't even passed the exam for a child. Can the Du Youzhong handed over by Mr. Du pass the exam?How did he pass the test and when did he take the test?How come no one else knows?

This is too strange, hasn't Du Youzhong been acting as a bookkeeper for others?

Why did he suddenly become a scholar?
Only those who announced the good news left, and the surrounding villagers also congratulated Mr. Du and Mrs. Qi. Mr. Du was so happy that he quickly said you are welcome, you are welcome.

Qi didn't know what his expression was, he looked like he was going to have a fit, but he couldn't believe it.

Not to mention that she couldn't believe it, even Mrs. Hu couldn't believe it. His husband actually passed the examination of scholar?
Although the rest of the family were also surprised, they were overjoyed after being surprised. After all, it was such a good thing. As for Mr. Du, he wished he could scream up to the sky. His family had finally produced a scholar. He hadn't worked in vain for so many years. The books read are not in vain!
He can't do it all his life, but his son can do it!Mr. Du felt that the stale air that had been suppressing him for most of his life had finally come out, and he felt comfortable all over.

"Tell me, what's going on?" Mrs. Qi is not happy yet, and if she doesn't explain this clearly, Mrs. Qi feels unhappy.

Du Youzhong didn't hide anything, and said directly: "Not long ago, when I went to the county seat, I actually went to the county for an exam, and then after the county exam, I went to the prefectural government exam and the hospital exam. Because there was no result, neither did I." Tell you two elders. Just thinking, this is the only time in a lifetime, if we pass the exam, then we will have a better life in the future, if we fail the exam, we will never try again. "

Mr. Du said to Qi Shi: "What are you doing with your slouching face? Now that you are a scholar, you are the scholar's mother. Everyone is happy. Don't be so disappointed, okay?"

Qi was furious, "I'm not happy? Can I be happy? My son slapped me in the face and ignored my words. What's the matter, if he is a scholar, can he write it off?"

It was about her disapproval of her family members going to participate in the scientific examination.

"You are such a nonsense, you don't let your family members take scientific examinations, just because you are afraid that they will all be like me, do nothing, and waste money, but can the boss be the same? His son is so old, and he still doesn't have a score in his heart. ? Is he the kind of person who doesn’t care about anything and only cares about himself? If he is not sure, he will not go to the exam. It is also because of you that he dare not speak out about it. You say you, no Being happy for him is like interrogating a thief, is this what a mother should do?"

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi was also speechless, but she was unhappy in her heart, always feeling that her authority had been swept away!

"Mr. Hu, do you know about the boss?" Mrs. Qi turned to ask Mrs. Hu.

Mrs. Hu hurriedly said: "I just found out. Mother, don't be angry."

Qi said: "Yeah, why am I angry? What is there to be angry about? I'm the mother of a scholar! Hmph, I have no right to be angry!"

"You old woman, what are you doing with your eccentricity? If you don't like it, I'll sue the boss for disobedience and get his reputation removed. How about I vent my anger on you?" Mr. Du really can't understand his old wife like this.

"Don't you dare! I'm not finished with you!" Anger turns into anger, but his son passed the examination of scholar, this Qi's heart is not proud, it is impossible, but he feels that he has been cut face and will be punished by his family. It's a shame, because she kept saying that their old Du's family didn't have such a life, so don't give me the test.

But now Youzhong secretly took the exam without telling her, and passed the exam, what do people say?
"You all go out first, I'll talk to your mother." Mr. Du said to everyone.

In fact, except for Qi's accident, everyone was very happy.

"Why are you so awkward? Is your face more important than your son's being a scholar? Everyone else is happy, but you have a drooping face. What do you want to do?

Let the folks see that you don't want our son to be a scholar?Do you have to ask others to make irresponsible remarks to make you happy?Is your face that important?Youzhong has been selected as a scholar, and he can go to the office in the future, earning much more in a month than being a counting house, and even his reputation is much better than being a counting house, and he is also respected by others. Who in this village will not respect us in the future?Also, our [-] acres of land can be exempted from tax in the future, do you know what this means?We don’t have to pay more than [-] mu of land now, and we can buy land in the future without paying. How much money can we save this year?Just do it, and you will be happy when all these benefits are gone. "

Mr. Du knew Qi's weakness, so he directly hit the red heart!
"Is it really tax-free?" Qi said, "Fifty acres?"

"Why am I lying to you? If you win Juren, it will be two hundred acres! Otherwise, why are you all looking for scholars?" Old Man Du said.

Mrs. Qi is not unhappy about this, it's all about face, but it's a trivial matter, compared with other things, it's not a problem, yes, her son is a scholar, she is a scholar's mother!
Those embarrassing things are more important than being a scholar, of course being a scholar!
"Father should be able to persuade mother." Hu comforted Du Youzhong. Although Du Youzhong didn't tell herself about this matter, she also knew that her brother borrowed money for this matter, so that means she Brother knows everything.

"Okay, come here, your mother has something to say." Mr. Du yelled in the middle of the courtyard, it is a great thing for Du Youzhong to be selected as a scholar, and he should celebrate it no matter what.

And the Qi family also asked Uncle Hu that Du Youzhong borrowed the money to go to the county to take the exam, and he no longer thought that the eldest son would not tell his mother, but told his uncle.

In my heart, if the Qi family really knew Du Youzhong's thoughts, he would definitely not let him go. He thought it was a waste of money and felt that he had more foreign debts.

Then there is no such thing as a scholar who has passed the exam.

"Brother! You are amazing!" Du Youquan especially admires his elder brother, who can support his family and be admitted as a scholar.

"Your elder brother, this is also the result of my own hard work." Mr. Du already knew that Du Youzhong had never given up studying in the past ten years, even when he was making money in the town.This eldest son's perseverance is much stronger than him, and it is only natural that he can be a scholar.

"Remember, how much your eldest brother has contributed to this family, don't forget all about it!" Qi said to the remaining sons.The eldest son didn't delay anything, he didn't like Mr. Du, who only cared about his studies, and didn't even have the ability to take care of the family's eating and drinking.

Du Youzhong hurriedly said: "Mother, we are all a family, I am the eldest, and I should take care of my younger brothers."

"Brother, don't say that, we have married wives and become adults, so we shouldn't let you take care of us all the time. Don't worry, we will never make trouble for you in the future." They don't have the ability of big brother, but they don't have to hold back .
