Chapter 724 Desires are hard to fill (1)

June in the south of the Yangtze River is a season of harvest, and the fields are in full swing.

Fu Ran sat in the carriage and lifted the curtain and looked out. She happened to see a little girl with two bags of money in her five or six years old handing the water to a strong man to drink.

After drinking the water, the man touched her head and told her to continue to lower her head to harvest the rice. Time didn't wait for anyone, and the rice was about to be sown after harvesting it.

Seeing this warm scene, Fu Ran said with some regret: "It's still the girl who cares about you."

After saying that, she and Bai Fan, the maid beside her, said, "You said, do I want to adopt a girl to raise?"

It wasn't that I had this idea suddenly. She had this idea two years ago but she never met her favorite one.

Bai Fan disagreed and said, "Sir, raising children is very mentally consuming. Can you take it for your health?"

"The little girl is soft and cute, and she is also considerate to her mother."

Bai Fan smiled and said, "Sir, the young master is also considerate of you and is very filial to you."

"Jingze is filial piety, but..."

How to say it? Fu Jingen is very filial, but he has to study and socialize, so he doesn’t have much time to accompany her. Moreover, because the man speaks sternly on weekdays, he doesn’t look like his daughter who can always be with her and act cute.

When he got home, the in charge said to her: "Madam, both Beijing and Pingzhou have letters."

Fu Ran took the two letters and took them back to the manager: "You can hand this letter to the young master later!"

Looking at the handwriting, she knew that the letter was sent by Fu Laogen. Over the years, Fu Laogen and Chen often wrote letters to Fu Jingze, but Fu Ran knew but did not interfere.

Bai Fan returned to the inner courtyard and told Xiner about this.

After getting married, Xiner returned to Fu Ran and now she is the manager of the inner courtyard.

After receiving the news, Xiner said to Fu Ran: "Sir, the family must have asked for money again when they wrote a letter."

In recent years, Fu Laogen wrote only one purpose, that is, to ask for money. However, Fu Jingze is a clear-headed person who is ill with Chen and he will bring some money back. He doesn't care about other things such as building houses and land.

Fu Ran shook her head and said, "Let Jingze handle it yourself!"

"Sir, that family is so annoying. At the beginning, the patriarch said that this family will not be in trouble after adoption, but they ended up being fun."

Fu Ran smiled and said, "You're just taking this seriously."

Xiner asked in surprise: "Can you not believe me?"

Fu Ran said: "If they really want to find a good future for their children, they will not ask for money. If they ask for money, it is actually no different from selling their sons."

Anyway, if it were her, she would adopt her own child unless she was too poor to survive.

Bai Fan was a little puzzled after hearing this: "Sir, why do you really need to adopt the young master if you can't do what the patriarch says?"

"Jingze is a good boy. He has talent in studying. If I don't adopt him, he will be ruined in this life."

In fact, there was something else I didn't say. When Fu Jingze was adopted, she actually drove the ducks to the shelves. Mrs. Fu was sick and was worried about the fact that no one was supporting her when she was old. In order to make her feel relieved, she agreed to adopt her. As for whether Fu Jingze is filial, she didn't care whether Fu Laogen and his wife were difficult to deal with.

But now looking back, her mother's worries that day were indeed right. Her sister-in-law couldn't tolerate her at all, so how could she let her two nephews support her? Moreover, her two nephews have become unfamiliar with her over the years and are not as close as Fu Jingze.

Fu Ran cleaned her hands before she took off Qingshu's letter, and she laughed after reading it.

"Sir, what did Miss Lin say in the letter to make you so happy?"

Fu Ran folded the letter and put it back, and said with a smile: "Qingshu said that I would take Jingze to the capital."

"Sir, the young master is about to end next year. It's good to go over and prepare early this year. Moreover, Young Master Fu was studying at Baitan Academy last year, and his knowledge is very good. If you want the young master to live with him, you can still get his guidance."

Fu Ran burst into laughter: "If this letter hadn't been opened just now, I would have suspected that you had read Qingshu's letter."

Xiner also smiled: "This only means that Miss Lin and I want to go together. Sir, I think it's best to go this year. Who knows what's going on next year?"

The imperial examination is in May, but it will not be warm until March in Jiangnan. However, it is too time to go to the capital in March, so if something happens, it will be delayed.

Fu Ran said with a nod, "Jingze will come back later, I will ask him for his opinion."

After Fu Jingze was ten years old, Fu Ran would discuss his affairs with him before making a decision. As long as Fu Jingze had sufficient reasons for opposition, Fu Ran would listen to his opinions.

When he came back from school in the afternoon, Fu Ran told him about this.

Fu Jingze hesitated and said, "Mom, sir, if I say I will be out next year, the probability of being passed is not high, so it is better to end up in a few years."

Last year, the entire Pingzhou admitted 100 people in the provincial examination, and Fu Jingze passed the exam for more than 80. Unless he was lucky enough to take the exam, he would fail 100%.

Fu Ran asked, "What do you mean by yourself?"

"I'm not sure."

Fu Ran said with a nod, "I think it doesn't matter if you don't pass the exam next year, but you can get familiar with the atmosphere. In addition, when you go to Beijing and communicate with those outstanding candidates in Beijing, it will be of great benefit to you."

Fu Jingze understood what he meant and shook his head and said, "Mom, Fu Jieyuan is about to end next year, how can I delay his precious time?"

The main reason is that he has no confidence at all. And it takes a year to go to the exam, so there is no hope, so why waste this time!

Fu Ran understood that he was unwilling to end the exam: "Since you don't want to go, then forget it, but I will definitely go to the capital after Qingshu gets married next year. At that time, do you want to go with me?"

Fu Jingze smiled and nodded, "I will definitely accompany my mother to attend the wedding with my senior sister."

"Okay, then you go to review the book!"

When he returned to the study, Fu Jingze demolished Fu Laogen's letter. In fact, he didn't like to receive Fu Laogen's letter because every time he wrote a letter, he would ask for money in a different way.

Fortunately, this time it was not for money, but that his elder sister's wedding date was set, and it was scheduled for October 12th.

Because the children at home are too expensive, his mother is busy from morning to night, and Fu Jingze was brought by his elder sister when he was young. Therefore, this relationship is naturally deeper than other brothers and sisters.

In addition, the eldest sister saw that he had been supporting the family and advised him not to do this, saying that it would make Fu Ran unhappy. If Fu Ran was unhappy, he would not have a good life.
