137. Xu Lengmei
The third girl would think that Manager Jiang is extraordinary, and a large part of the reason is related to the third girl's life experience. A series of complex experiences such as parents treating marriage, children, and parents treating each other, including the emotions between parents, etc. The third girl also has a different view of marriage between men and women than ordinary people. Simply put, parents are not good people. One is embarrassed to die, and the other escapes with the money. The third girl can have today, in addition to her own courage, she has her own luck.
Therefore, in the third girl's cognition, keeping integrity is not something that women should be like this, but something that needs to be considered whether it is worth it or not. If you are really unlucky to marry a man like her biological father, it is nothing to have a woman like her biological mother. Even if you are a virtuous woman who cannot be more virtuous, if you marry a humble man like her biological father, don't say that a man should remarry if he dies, even if the man doesn't die, he should be divorced.
This is the view of the third girl as a woman.
Of course, this does not mean that the third girl thinks that her biological mother is doing the right thing. In the third girl's heart, her biological mother is also a bitch. It is not enough to sell herself, and she has to sell her biological flesh and blood... In contrast, even if Manager Jiang remarries, she has to bring her biological flesh and blood... In this case, the third girl admires Manager Jiang. Look, there are still good mothers in the world. Such a good mother will never give up on her own flesh and blood. But she has a bad life and has not met her.
...
After a series of reasons, the third girl is full of affection for Manager Jiang.
This is also the only positive comment He Zijin heard about Manager Jiang.
For example, Li Guiyuan, a senior sister of the third girl, said this, "The three of us are not as lucky as the third sister. Aqi and I live a lifelong life, not like the third sister who has learned calligraphy and arithmetic. If you have the chance and have the face of the master, you will bring the third sister up."
This senior sister was bribed by Mr. Chen and was a lobbyist for Mr. Chen. Fortunately, she was thick-skinned. Even if she was exposed in person by the third girl, after a period of repair, she would still come to the He family to interact with her. The only difference is that she would not bring gifts to Mr. He this time. Li Guiyuan embroidered flowers and said, "It's also the third sister, you have good luck and meet the prostitute named Jiang."
"I have never seen that prostitute again." Li Guiyuan was obviously more informed than the third girl, and said, "Does Zijin know that the prostitute married the relative of your Feng uncle, and the surname is Feng, and she is also a scholar. Her family is poor and almost begged for food. She seduced this scholar. Oh, she tried every means to enter the Feng family's gate. As a result, her son didn't give birth to a single girl, and she gave birth to a girl. She had a tough life.
It's amazing. Feng Xiucai was killed in three years. His life was so strong that it was not easy to be a widow. Then Feng Xiucai's grave didn't work, and he hooked up with a rich family in the prefecture without even seeing him. No matter how rich he is, he heard that he was a house filling for others, and his original wife had several children? Maybe he was just a half-big old man who buried his loess in his throat. You said, what can you do to marry again? It's not just to be rich!"
The third girl has a good impression of Manager Jiang, but after hearing Li Guiyuan say this, she did not directly refute it, just said, "The senior sister is so well-informed."
Li Guiyuan raised her eyebrows and said, "Who doesn't know about this matter of Jiang's surname? This time, the aunt really took a look at it, why did she support a prostitute?" That indignant look, a thousand substitutes for Aunt Li are worthless!
The third girl couldn't listen anymore and said, "Senior sister, don't say that. Manager Jiang must have a good man from Manager Jiang. Regardless of whether the other rich family is blind, he is just picking up bad things to marry."
"You are young, but you know what men are. You just look at your face. You haven't seen that man before. I have seen him. Once I came to deliver something to the aunt. There was only one word slut written on his eyebrows and eyes. I saw it when I saw it. I knew it was not like a good woman." Li Guiyuan said with a nose and eyes, and she said again, "But it's okay that the slut fox left. If she doesn't leave, her sister can't learn to manage the accounting. My sister is about to develop, so don't forget to support your senior sister in the future."
The third girl said humbly, "What are you talking about in senior sister? Haven't I always followed my senior sister to take care of her?"
Li Guiyuan smiled and patted the third girl's hand, "We are not the same sisters, who are just watching and helping each other, are they?"
"Senior sister is talking about it." asked the third girl, "I heard that the happy day for senior sister is coming soon. Which day is it scheduled?"
Li Guiyuan's face turned red, "On the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, my sister will take Zijin and her sister to come and have fun. If you go, I will give my sister a long face."
The third girl laughed, "I will definitely go."
Li Guiyuan's marriage is approaching and she is very busy on weekdays. The empty space that has been connected with the third girl has also squeezed out. After talking for a while, she got up and said goodbye.
When Li Guiyuan was sent away, He Zijin sighed, "Sister Guiyuan is so lucky that she is talking dirty before she gets married. She is going to get married, but what can you do?"
The third girl smiled and said, "She is this kind of temperament. Don't say that we are good in front of us. If we put others in front of us, we may not say anything about us."
He Zijin: Li Guiyuan is the legendary n-faced genius.
In fact, Li Guiyuan said this in front of another junior sister He Qi, "We two say that they are senior sisters, and no one is more than three sisters liked by the master. She can be a good person, and she will also bring gifts to the master when she goes to the prefecture. Just this is the case, the two of us who are poor and poor families are not as good as her. Although she is hard-working, the He family is really good to her and teaches her to recognize words and arithmetic. Otherwise, the embroidery workshop is not as good as her."
Although Mrs. He and Mrs. He Zijin had two ancestors and grandchildren who had been dealing with the third wife, fifth aunt, mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, He Qi spoke very fairly. He Qi lowered her head and embroidered her flowers, "We are three sisters, only the junior sister can write and calculate, but if you have such accounting, it is naturally the junior sister who does it. This is normal. Uncle Wu teaches her to read and recognize words. Uncle Wu is kind and has good luck." Uncle Wu refers to Mrs. He.
Li Guiyuan felt sour, and after He Qi's words, it seemed that she was as innocent as she was, so she couldn't say anything to He Qi anymore. Moreover, Li Guiyuan felt deeply that the three senior sisters, except for her true heart who had a deep understanding of her intestines, both junior sisters really had their own little thoughts: He Qi was thinking about stealing unique skills from his master, and three senior sisters, He Qi was the most profitable in embroidery work. The third girl was even more evil. In the past, she was the most honest, but who knew that this person who studied was a lot of wicked minds and had no idea, and he actually went to the embroidery workshop to manage the accounts. He didn't have to do anything a month and could get two taels of silver! Who would you really ask for to reason?
After thinking about these two troublesome junior sisters, Li Guiyuan couldn't even eat lunch.
He Zijin was inquiring with the third girl, "Who did Li Guiyuan tell me about?"
The third girl said, "I don't know much, and she hasn't made it clear. She said that her family is well-off, and her husband's family also has a hundred acres of land, three homes, and there are shops outside."
It is really a pretty good family to have land and shops at home. Of course, this is relative to Li Guiyuan's personal conditions. It's not that Li Guiyuan's personal conditions are not good, but it's just average. It's really good to be able to marry someone with land, house and shops. He Zijin also said, "She's in-laws' family is not bad."
It happened that Mrs. Zhou was feeding ducks in the yard. Now she listened and said, "Isn't it the daughter-in-law of the mutton shop in the vegetable market? I've heard her mother-in-law's gestures. Her daughter-in-law and our third girl are senior sisters. She learned needlework with Master Xue, and the girl Li just now. Every time I buy mutton, I buy it at her in-laws' butcher."
Mrs. Zhou also felt that Li Guiyuan's marriage was very good and said, "Don't say anything, Miss Li will marry you and you will not have to worry about not having mutton."
He Zijin immediately remembered and said, "Ah, her mother-in-law is the boss lady who is very good at spreading rumors, right?"
After feeding the duck, Zhou Ma Zi wiped her hand on the apron and said, "It's that mute woman who makes trouble every day is a little troubled. She will provoke something and often makes her men angry and beat her up. But even though she can't tell her words, she knows it. People will also plot. Her mutton business is quite good."
After talking about Li Guiyuan, Mrs. He also had a letter to buy land. Mrs. He asked He Gong to take Xiao Fuzi to see the land that day, and the 150 acres of fat land reached He Zijin's name.
Old Madam He didn't think about recording the land directly under He Zijin's name, which was mentioned by Shen. Shen said, "Remember it directly, so as to save you a lot of trouble if you change your name in the future."
This was the money He Zijin earned. The family had already planned to buy her dowry land, and Mrs. He had no objection, but the land deed was still collected by Mrs. He. However, He Zijin was already a legally small landlord.
Whenever there is any matter of buying land or transfer of land deeds, he has to go to the yamen Sihu to complete the procedures. When Mrs. Shen talked to Mrs. Shi, Mrs. Shi said, "Your family is a family that really loves her daughter." Many families have seen them, most of whom they use their daughter to subsidize their sons. He said that such a large sum of money was earned by He Zijin, but he bought land for He Zijin, which is quite rare.
Shen smiled, "It was a fortune that Zijin earned. I am just this daughter. It's not that my family can't afford to eat, so I can't ask for the money for my daughter."
Mrs. Shi said, "Just think so, in our county, many families will receive as many betrothal gifts, so they will use the betrothal gifts as dowry, and their family will not pay a penny of dowry." The daughter of the He family has this 150 acres of fat land and can really say that a good family is a good family.
"Why have to compare with such a family?" Shen said, "If such a family is really hard, it is understandable. If you are really mean, then there is no way. If you want me to say, my daughter is the same as my son, who is not our pregnancy for ten months?"
"Yes." Mrs. Shi said as she talked about the county's preparation for the academy. "You two kids are going to take the academy, right?"
Shen laughed, "Yes. They have been studying for two or three years. It is a college admissions and we are close to each other, so let's ask them to give it a try. If you can pass the exam, you can go. If you can't pass the exam, you are not old anyway, so it's okay to study at home for two years and then take the exam."
Mrs. Shi laughed, "My brother Feng is also preparing to take the college entrance examination. Have you heard that Xu Juren has to run a class, just to prepare courses for the college entrance examination. It takes not long, about half a year. I heard that Xu Juren also wants to go to the academy to serve as a teacher. Once he goes to his school, it may be easier to take the college entrance examination."
"I don't know this." Shen was very excited when he heard this and asked Mrs. Shi, "How much money does the school cost in the past six months?"
"The silver is a little expensive, each person costs twenty taels. My family has relatives with the Xu family. Although the Xu family does not charge Brother Feng'er's money, why don't I give it?" When Mrs. Shi said that when she said that the Xu family wanted to sigh, she sighed, "One code is the same, and relatives are relatives. In the past, the private schools run by the Xu family were not cheap, and they also cost two taels of silver a month. Our Brother Feng has been studying in recent years, and I have never had the Xu family." Her family does not lack the money for her son to study, but the Xu family is really worried.
Shen lived a frugal life and was very willing to study in his son, saying, "I will discuss it with my husband when I go back. If my husband agrees, I will grit my teeth and ask the children to go."
Mrs. Shi laughed and said to herself that the family who had just bought 150 acres of fat land would not be enough to pay for the forty taels of silver. Mrs. Shi still smiled and said, "Yes, the child's lifelong big thing is, it's a year earlier for the academy, and it's a year earlier than other children to listen to the lectures of those knowledgeable gentlemen, and maybe they can get a scholar one year earlier in the future." In short, the child cannot be told to lose at the starting line! It can be seen that this idea has existed since ancient times!
Shen quite agrees with Mrs. Shi's statement. Since the Shi family said goodbye, Shen went home in a hurry to discuss with her husband whether to ask the children to attend the Xu Juren cram school.
The old ghost’s reaction is like this: a juren, hum!
In A Nian's heart, the old ghost is more knowledgeable than Xu Juren, so A Nian said, "We have learned a good job with our uncle. Besides, the basics are not something that can be done by pulling seedlings and urging them to grow. I don't think we need to go."
He Lie said, "This is too expensive. It costs twenty taels of silver in half a year!" Because he received his sister's mental arithmetic training since childhood, He Lie was very sensitive to numbers. Moreover, He Lie knew that his family was not a rich family and was also very good at living~
But Shen didn't think so. Shen said, "If you spend twenty taels to guarantee that you can enter the academy, I will be willing to do so."
Mrs. He also planned to pluck his hair and said, "Your mother is right, that's what you said! Twenty taels are nothing! I heard that there are all knowledgeable men in the academy, and they are all more knowledgeable than Xu Juren!" However, Mrs. He asked Shen, "Is it really possible to get into the academy if I spend twenty taels to study in Xu Juren for half a year?" Her son's expenses for studying at Xu Juren for more than ten years was more than 200 taels, and he didn't get a Juren for the exam.
Although the third girl said little, she hit the nail on the head, "I have to see if Xu Juren is the one who took the exam?"
He Zijin didn't want his family to spend this in vain money, saying, "Xu Juren is considered knowledgeable in our county, but if five or six counties are counted together, he is afraid he will not be counted. It is just that this academy is the first time he was admitted to the school, and it is not his turn to give a question, right? Besides, Xu Juren held this course, but there is no guarantee that he would be admitted to the academy. It is nothing more than that he has the reputation of a juren and has been a teacher for many years. It is true that he has experience in teaching. Only by running this course will he make another money before the academy recruits."
He Gong still respected the teacher very much, coughed and scolded, "Don't say such words. Mr. Xu is a person who teaches the teachings and teaches. It is necessary to collect some training."
He Zijin smiled, "I just think that you have studied with Mr. Xu since childhood. You have learned most of Mr. Xu's knowledge. Dad, you are not bad at teaching. Our family has always had friendship with the Xu family. If you feel uneasy, you might as well go to Mr. Xu to attend a class. If you are good or bad, you can be separated. If you feel good, you will study for half a year and have the money at home. If you think it's average, you don't have to go, it's nothing." I really didn't expect that Xu Juren still has the brain to run a crash course, but with this brain, Xu Juren has been living a little more ordinary in recent years.
He Zijin's proposal was unanimously approved by the family: Listen first, let's talk about whether to go to the crash course!
Opening a crash course is actually not Xu Juren's patent. Since the county wants to run a college, Zhou Pozi brought new news on the second day, "There are also juren in Furong County who opens a school, saying that it is to teach the children who are studying in the academy, which is cheaper than our county. They only charge 18 taels of classes in the first half of the year!" In addition to purchasing, Zhou Pozi also brought back the admission brochure for the crash course of Furong County College.
He Zijin sighed: I really can’t underestimate the wisdom of the ancients!
In fact, although Xu Juren's crash course was not Xu Juren's patent, Xu Juren made up his mind to start it. During this period, there were many young girls persuading him. Yes, it was Xu Lengmei, the Muliang who once mocked Shi Jiafu's uneducated sister, and also the Muliang who was about to get engaged to Chen Zhi.
Xu Lengmei persuaded her father in this way, "My father is not interested in Shu Xiu, but there must be a threshold for studying. How about Saint Confucius? Don't he also collect a few pieces of bacon? Now the county wants to run a college, and his father also wants to teach in a college. Our private school will not be held anymore. Even for the sake of the primary school students in our county, my father should also teach a few more classes to consolidate their foundation or what is the shortage, and teach them again. It's still my father's intention to be a teacher, right?"
If you can't mention money, you have to talk about your father's heart. Always say that Xu Lengmei still knows her father quite well.
The crash course of the Xu family started, and the family made a lot of money. Mrs. Xu said to her daughter, "I can't marry you to the next two gold jewelry, so I can't let anyone underestimate you."
Xu Lengmei said lightly, "The Chen family is not interested in our family's wealth. Don't worry, mother. The Chen family will give you a lot of betrothal gifts. Then you will have the money for gold jewelry. It's better for my mother to keep this money for household use."
Mrs. Xu hid her tears, "I always feel that my parents are incompetent, and I feel wronged."
"What's wrong with this?" Xu Lengmei wiped her mother's tears, "I married me and became a young grandmother, a golden slave and a silver maid. Even the most wealthy life is, the Chen family's uncle is also a scholar and a fame, and he can't be wronged."
Xu Lengmei really felt wronged. People in the world were actually two-faced, just like their father, arrogant, noble and famous. In fact, they knew the benefits of yellow and white things. Otherwise, they would not marry the wife of a wealthy brother and second brother, otherwise they would not have made a wealthy marriage for her. Even if Chen Zhi was a little confused, what if he had a reputation, the rich family of the Chen family and the Xu family were rich and famous, and he was a perfect match.
Xu Lengmei thought that her father had no future in fame, fame, human affairs and future for the rest of his life, but he had made great marriages for his children and was affordable!
