Parents are busy farming

In the afternoon he found his grandfather and talked to him alone.

When he said that the master said that he was not a candidate for the imperial examination, Grandpa didn't seem shocked at all.

However, when he mentioned that he wanted to learn how to be a shopkeeper or accountant, his grandfather's hesitant expression puzzled him.

"Your uncle's family still doesn't have a male child. It is estimated that it will be difficult to have a male child in the future. If this is the case, he will definitely have to adopt a child. If you don't study by then, will they still consider you?"

After Lu Dashan finished speaking, Lu Zili was shocked on the spot.

He didn't expect his grandfather to have such an idea. He didn't want to pass on to his uncle. He wanted to rely on his own ability to make his family live a good life, instead of being jealous when he saw other people's wealth.

It can be said that Lu Zili is indeed a good bamboo shoot.

"Grandpa, I don't want to inherit. I just want to learn skills and let my family live a good life."

After Lu Zili finished speaking, Lu Dashan scolded him directly: "Naive! Childish!"

"Do you think you are the only one who has such an idea? Everyone has it, why can't others do it, because they are too naive." Lu Dashan said very loudly.

"You'd better study for two more years! If you still can't do it after that, it's not too late to study something else." After Lu Dashan finished speaking, he left.

Lu Zili still can't understand his grandfather's thoughts. He really wants to ask Zifen and let her analyze it for him.

The next day, the Ye family got up early. The first thing they did after getting up was to catch the six hens.

Because it was just dawn, the chickens were not moving yet, so they were easy to catch.

But the miserable screams and violent struggles after being caught made Ye Zifen unbearable.

In the end, Ye Yongwang and Lao Li tied the chicken and put it on the donkey cart.

As members of my grandma's family, they are honored guests. Today they not only have to bring gifts, but also some money to fill the pots.

This time Ye Zifen brought a silver peanut, which was beautiful and auspicious.

Then he wrapped the longevity lock in a handkerchief. It was a gift for the little nephew.

Then the two sisters got into the car and left with a new look.

Xiao Qi was left crying, and Xiao Liu was left with his lips curled up in displeasure.

When the two sisters were halfway there, they saw a middle-aged man pushing a big sow toward the county town.

Ye Zifen suddenly remembered about killing the New Year pig, so she chatted with the man: "Uncle, are you taking the pig to sell?"

The man didn't expect someone to ask him halfway and told the truth.

"Well! My child is sick and needs medical treatment, but the family has no money and has to sell the New Year Pig in advance!"

"Then how much do you plan to sell it for?" Ye Zifen asked again.

"If I sell this pig during the Chinese New Year, I can sell it for at least four taels, but now I can only sell it for three taels."

Ye Zifen rolled her eyes and said: "Uncle, I will give you three taels of silver. You take this pig back to your home. Before the New Year, I will go to your house to catch the pig and give you another one tael of silver. What do you think?"

It just so happened that no one in his family wanted to raise pigs. Although they could only sell them for three taels at most, if they bought them again, the price would be more than this.

The man stopped immediately upon hearing this, "Really?"

"Really, I'll give you the money now." Ye Zifen said, taking out three taels of silver and handing it to the man.

The man held the silver in both hands and asked, "Miss, aren't you afraid that I will run away?"

"Don't be afraid. My brother-in-law is a county official, and our family is related to the county magistrate. As long as you are willing to leave your hometown for a few taels of silver, I will accept your defeat!"

Ye Zifen said frankly.

"Don't worry, miss, I am Li Laosi from Lijiazhuang. If you ask around in our village, everyone will know me."

The man was not a villain, and he told me his name honestly.

"Okay, hurry up and take the money to see a doctor for your child!" After Ye Zifen said this, he whipped up his whip and drove the donkey cart away.

Li Laosi quickly pushed the pig back home and took his son to see a doctor.

"Why are you doing this?" Ye Zifei asked puzzledly.

"Just to accumulate virtue for the second sister and the fourth sister!" After Ye Zifen finished speaking, Ye Zifei stopped talking.

It wasn't until she arrived at the door of Zhang's house that Ye Zifei said in a nonchalant manner: "You did the right thing."

These words made Ye Zifen very strange. She had already put down what she had just done.

She didn't have to worry about it that much. Baptism was more important.

At this time, an old man in his fifties ran out and came over and said, "I am the new concierge of the Zhang family. Miss, just give me the car."

After Ye Zifen raised an eyebrow, she handed him the reins in her hand.

The two sisters entered the Zhang family's door with their things in hand.

The Zhang family is very lively now. Zhang Huaiyu invited the chef from Fushou Building to cook directly at home.

Many official wives came today, including the county magistrate's wife.

When Ye Zifen saw her, she quickly brought Ye Zifei over to greet her: "Grandma is safe!"

"Hey! Zifen, come to grandma quickly and let me take a look. I haven't seen you for a while."

Being so loved by the county magistrate's wife, everyone unconsciously cast curious glances at Ye Zifen.

"Yes! I haven't seen you for a long time. Your face is much rosier than the last time I saw you, and you are much younger!"

How can a woman not love beauty? As long as she is praised for her beauty, no matter how old she is, she will definitely be happy.

Ye Zifen brought Ye Zifei to the county magistrate’s wife.

"Look how cute this little mouth is."

The county magistrate's wife immediately grabbed Ye Zifen's hand, as if she was afraid she would run away.

"I'm telling the truth. If you don't believe me, go ask your aunt?" Ye Zifen said coquettishly.

"Yeah! You two are the same, equally lovable."

As he spoke, he glanced at the maid behind him. The maid was also smart and quickly handed a brocade box to the county magistrate's wife.

"The jewelry you painted for me last time is all ready. It's very beautiful. I also gave you a few pieces, which are all inside. I knew I would see you here today, so I brought them specially."

As the county magistrate's wife spoke, she handed the brocade box to Ye Zifen and motioned for her to put it away quickly.

"Where's your mother? Why aren't you here?" The county magistrate's wife took Ye Zifen to talk for a while before she realized that Wang Tinghe was not here.

Wang Tinghe and her daughter are best friends, and they are also juniors she knows well.

"My mother found out yesterday that she was more than two months pregnant, so I didn't dare to let her come," said Ye Zifen.

"Hey! His two children are quite close to each other, so they need to be taken good care of."

The county magistrate's wife knew that Wang Tinghe had always given birth to daughters, and she must have hoped to have a son.

The county magistrate's family is full of sons who long for a girl. She understands Wang Tinghe's mentality of longing for a son for many years.

Zhang Yu was sitting nearby and happened to hear it.

"Fortunately, it was found out. I didn't know it when I left yesterday!"

"No, there was no reaction. I wanted to take her to see the doctor and take care of her body. Then the doctor took her out. Everyone was sweating in shock. Fortunately, it was nothing serious."

Ye Zifen quickly explained.

"Well! Let your mother take good care of her. Don't worry. Mrs. Liu is very careful in her work."

Zhang Yu said this, firstly, to reassure Ye Zifen, and secondly, for everyone to hear.

‘She is not a mother-in-law who criticizes her daughter-in-law. ’

"The auspicious time has come, and the three baptisms are about to begin."

Someone shouted, and everyone moved to Zhi Xuan's room.
