Seeing her son talking back to her, Mr. Qian subconsciously wanted to get angry, but he also knew that getting angry would only push his son further away.
Now, the boss's heart has begun to favor Xiaojia. Delicate things like silkworm seeds are being spoiled by the children.
The boss is getting better and better with that girl.
But the boss took notice of the disobedient child.
Anyway, Lao Qian couldn't see what the child was worth and what he deserved to feel.
Nanzhi and her sister Daya put the silkworm seeds in a cool place and waited for them to hatch. They went to the mountains early the next morning to pick mulberry leaves and ate their fill of mulberries.
When the silkworm seeds have small black spots, they have to be covered with black cloth. Mrs. Wu really feels sorry for the money to buy the silkworm seeds, and will not let her two daughters make them casually.
Mother and daughter started raising silkworms, and the silkworm seeds hatched into tiny silkworm babies, slowly eating the mulberry leaves.
But more often than not, Nanzhi and her sister take care of the silkworm babies.
In order to prevent the silkworm babies from getting sick, the house had to be cleaned, but unexpectedly the house became much cleaner and tidier.
There was a lot of stuff accumulated in the small room. After tidying it up and sweeping away some of the dust, the room looked much tidier.
Afraid that the silkworms would get sick, they would mix medicinal powder with water and sprinkle it on the mulberry leaves. There would be a faint smell of medicine lingering in the whole room.
There is no longer a stale and slightly smelly smell when you enter the room.
When Nanzhi goes to pick mulberry leaves every day, he picks some wild flowers and imitates her little aunt, putting the wild flowers in simple bottles, which is quite wild.
Mrs. Wu looked at the house that her two daughters had tidied up, and was stunned for a moment, with a smile on her face.
No one wants to live a better life. Wu is depressed because she has no son. She always thinks about having a son before she changes.
But his son was nowhere to be seen, and he felt real comfort immediately.
Wu let out a breath, as if the depression in her heart, which made people unable to sleep, could be vented.
"Mom, you smiled. Mom, you are beautiful. Your smile is so beautiful." Nanzhi clapped her hands and said, "I like my mother's smile."
Wu smiled again, her brows and eyes relaxed, and there was a kind of charm in her.
During this period, the ginseng prepared by Jiang Lean was sold, and it was Jiang Yuze who sold it for a full two hundred taels.
A man is not rich without windfall, and a horse is not fat without night grass.
It is impossible to earn two hundred taels from farming in a lifetime. The whole family was in a state of joy, especially Xiao Qian, whose kind words made him fall in love with Jiang Le'an at no cost.
Praise Jiang Le'an for being lucky. In the future, most people will not be worthy of Balabala...
Jiang Liangcai felt a little embarrassed when she thought about where this ginseng came from. She glared at Nanzhi who was eating like crazy.
It looked like the reincarnation of a starving ghost.
In order to celebrate the money from selling ginseng, Lao Qian bought pork and killed chickens.
Nanzhi was as happy as the Chinese New Year. If she didn’t eat it now, she wouldn’t know when she would be able to eat it next time.
Lao Qian also looked disgusted and cursed inwardly.
She coughed and said, "I hope everyone will remember who you can eat these because of. It was Le'an who discovered ginseng and concocted ginseng."
Everyone said yes, and Nanzhi ate without even raising his head.
Not only did she eat it herself, she also tried her best to pick it up for her mother and sister. Seeing this, the other little carrots also tried their best to put it into their own bowls.
Everyone ate faster.
Nanzhi single-handedly caused the dining table to roll inward.
After dinner, Mrs. Wu said to Lao Qian: "Since the family has a net worth of two hundred and two hundred yuan, don't let Liangcai go to work in the town. He is too tired. Let him have a rest." Take good care of your body so that you can have children. .
She felt that she and Jiang Liangcai had never been able to conceive, maybe because they were too tired.
Before Lao Qian could speak, Jiang Yuze took the lead and said: "Sister-in-law is right, it's really time to rest. After so many years of hard work, let's relax for a while. After a while, I will also take the scholar examination. If I pass, everyone will be happy." It’s all better.”
Wu said with a smile, "My brother-in-law is so considerate."
In this family, apart from the ignorant Nanzhi, the most sober person is probably the Wu family who is lying flat and broken.
Jiang Liangcai had expectations for her relatives, but Wu did not. She felt that she was an outsider.
The sister-in-law's expression was not worthy of what she said, so Jiang Yuze couldn't help but raise his eyebrows and subconsciously looked at Nanzhi, who kept eating.
Then he looked at his eldest brother who was about to speak but his sister-in-law pulled his sleeve and he shut up.
Jiang Yuze's heart sank a little. The eldest brother and his family were finally separated.
The road to the imperial examination is not an easy task. He studied hard in a cold window and had to have family support. If his eldest brother and his family were missing, it would not be a happy event for Jiang Yuze.
Even though Jiang Liangcai is just a hard worker with only one body of strength, he is still indispensable for his big brother.
The second brother has three sons. Not to mention how much money he provides for the father-in-law, it is difficult to feed the three sons alone.
No matter, after passing the scholar level first, only the actual benefits and interests can make people persist.
Jiang Baiming said: "Boss and the second, let's take a rest and wait for the autumn harvest. It's too hot in summer, so don't go out to work."
Although it was a pity that Lao Qian had no wages, he felt a little more relaxed when he thought of the two hundred taels for selling ginseng.
Everyone has thought about the good life, but it is because they have no money that they care about it in every possible way.
The atmosphere at the dinner table became much more relaxed, and the little carrots at the dinner table even asked: "Nai, can we eat meat tomorrow?"
"No, and you are not allowed to talk about ginseng everywhere." Old Qian said angrily.
Two days later, Jiang Yuze took some money to the county guard to take the exam. Before leaving, he kowtowed to Jiang Baiming and Lao Qian, saying that he would do his best to be admitted as a scholar.
Lao Qian's eyes were full of tears. Seeing that his younger son was doing well, Jiang Baiming also said with a little more gulp: "People are important. If anything happens, you must protect yourself first. We will wait for you to come back at home. If you don't pass the exam, there will still be a chance." .”
"Brother, have a safe trip." Jiang Le'an handed the package to his brother with a reluctant expression, "Brother, you must be well."
Jiang Yuze took the package and was a little surprised that it was very heavy. Seeing his sister winking mischievously, he couldn't help but smile.
After Jiang Yuze left, the atmosphere at home became a little depressed. Needless to say, Jiang Baiming and Lao Qian were tossing and turning.
Jiang Yuanzhong kept asking Xiao Qian: "Do you think I can pass the exam?"
In this family, apart from the old couple, Jiang Yuanzhong hopes that his younger brother will pass the exam the most. He has three sons and the burden is too great.
They also need to find wives for them, and the younger brother passed the exam. After changing the family background, even if the son works with the younger brother, it is better than digging in the soil for food.
Master Xiu Cai, Master Xiu Cai...
His son will follow the scholar, provided that his younger brother passes the exam.
