Make a fortune by farming: The sweetheart of the first assistant family

After the surprise, Huo Yunchao fell into deep fear and powerlessness. He knew that with his meager power, he could not change the cruel status quo of landlords exploiting farmers.

Huo Yunchao couldn't even guarantee that he would remain true to his original intention in the future and not extend his sinful hands to defenseless farmers and become the person he once hated most who lived by exploiting others.

As the saying goes, your butt determines your head.

People of whatever status they are in will have a corresponding way of thinking.

Landowners tied farmers to the land, so farmers could only live on a small piece of land. The land is controlled by the landlords, and the farmers cannot live without working for the landlords, so it is impossible for the farmers to stop working if they say they don't want to.

Generation after generation of landlords have tied generations of farmers to the land. Like blood-sucking insects, the landlords live a happy and contented life by exploiting the farmers.

Huo Yunchao considered himself not a great saint, but he really didn't want to be a blood-sucking insect, so he couldn't help but sigh: "Alas~"

Zhou Changxing rarely saw Huo Yunchao looking downcast, so he boldly asked, "Why did the Marquis sigh?"

Huo Yunchao was stunned for a moment: "Did I sigh?"

"Yes." Zhou Changxing nodded.

Huo Yunchao smiled and told Zhou Changxing: "Go to the teahouse and tell me that I have something to do today and I am anxious to get home."

Thanks to Magistrate Chen's guidance, he finally no longer had to waste money to treat those greedy blood-suckers to tea and chat.

As for the hundred taels of silver spent previously, just treat it as paying a valuable tuition fee.

Zhou Changxing accepted the order and left. He became more and more curious about what problem had trapped Huo Yunchao. He knew that he was going to tea on the next trip.

Lou continued to persuade the big landowners.

Huo Yunchao did not go home directly. Instead, he turned around and went to the academy to wait for Huo Yunze to come out.

Huo Yunze came out with a book basket on his back. He saw a familiar figure from a distance and thought he had seen it wrong. But when he looked closely, he saw that it was his elder brother.

He ran over excitedly: "Brother? Why are you here?"

Huo Yunchao asked with a smile: "Today's work is done. I suddenly thought of you and came to take you home. Second brother, how did you do in the exam?"

Today is the day when Huo Yunze gets his test results. As his eldest brother, Huo Yunchao is very concerned about his younger brother's academic performance and hopes that Huo Yunze can achieve his wishes.

His eldest brother has become the respected Marquis Pingle, and he is still the same as before. Today, he came to pick him up in person, making this brotherly love even more precious.

Huo Yunze's brows and eyes were full of joy, and he answered modestly: "Brother, I did okay in the exam. Better than I expected."

The more Huo Yunchao hid something in his heart, the happier he smiled: "Oh, how can I pass the exam?"

Huo Yunze smiled a little shyly: "Brother, I ranked tenth this time."

He studied for a short period of time and came from a poor family, and was far inferior to his classmates who were educated at the age of four or five. However, he had goals and perseverance, could endure hardships, and had a smart mind given by his parents, so it was not difficult for him to learn.

When he learned that Huo Yunze had such good results in his first exam after transferring to another school, Huo Yunchao was extremely surprised: "Tenth place?! Second brother, aren't you doing well? You're doing great! Come on, let's go! Big brother will buy you a gift!" "

Huo Yunze blushed at the praise and was keenly aware of the strange looks from his classmates. He whispered: "Brother, this is nothing. I was lucky enough to get the result by winning the question."

. Compared with other students, I need to learn too much. "

Huo Yunchao noticed the change in Huo Yunze's eyes and asked him in a low voice: "Second brother, tell me honestly, have you ever been bullied in the academy?"

Before he was granted the title of Pinglehou, he specifically asked Magistrate Chen to transfer Huo Yunze to this college.

With Huo Yunze's calm personality, he would not go around claiming that his eldest brother was Pinglehou. In the eyes of his classmates who didn't know the truth, Huo Yunze was just a poor student from the village, helpless.

Huo Yunze is a good boy who is honest to his relatives. He said calmly: "Um, brother, I don't want to lie. It is true that some people were dissatisfied with me at the beginning, but it can't be said to be bullying. They are so weak and weak. He couldn't beat me either. This time, he didn't pass me in the exam either."

He was looked down upon, but he didn't care.

Mainly because his elder brother, who was as thick-skinned as a city wall, took the test, Huo Yunze didn't feel the need to feel ashamed at all for his poor background.

Which of his parents, eldest brother and third brother is not living an upright life? Why should he feel ashamed?

Besides, his family is not poor either.

His father is a powerful man who can support his scholars through his craftsmanship, and his mother is a good hand at home and abroad. She had a balance of twenty taels of silver last year.

The few classmates who pointed at him didn't have half as much pocket money as he did.

His sister-in-law always gave him pocket money every time she saw him, for fear that he would be laughed at because he didn't have enough to eat and couldn't afford what he wanted in the college.

Huo Yunze is just used to being thrifty. He doesn't buy anything unless it's necessary. His elder brother buys pens, inks, paper and inkstones for him every other month.

There is no need to spend extra money to get a new one.

When Huo Yunchao heard his brother's answer, a ray of sunshine entered his gloomy heart: "Second brother, you are so good! Come on, pick out a piece of cloth and go back and ask your stepmother to make you two sets of clothes. A man relies on clothes and a horse relies on a saddle. You have to make two new clothes."

"Thank you, brother." Huo Yunze did not refuse and thanked him obediently.

His elder brother likes it when he is happy

Huo Yunchao said with a smile: "My brother, what are you saying to thank me for seeing you outside? Let's go! By the way, I'll pick out a piece of cloth for your sister-in-law and little Fubao, and also one for my stepmother. You guys are all dressed up beautifully. I Just looking at it can make you feel better."

Huo Yunze hesitated for a moment before asking: "Brother, are you in a bad mood?"

"Uh. Am I being so obvious?"

Huo Yunchao was stunned for a moment, then smiled again, "It's okay, I'll just take it easy. Come on, maybe I'll feel better after I finish shopping."

Huo Yunze was thoughtful.

After half an hour of picking in the cloth shop, Huo Yunze finished picking out his and Chen's two pieces of cloth, and hurriedly left the cloth shop on the pretext of needing to relieve himself.

Huo Yun winked at one of the secret guards and asked him to follow Huo Yunze to protect his personal safety.

The shopkeeper of Buyifang had a deep memory of Huo Yunchao. After all, he was a regular customer who came to help with business every now and then. He warmly entertained him when he came up.

Huo Yunchao didn't like people chattering around him, so he declined the shopkeeper's exclusive service. He wanted to buy a piece of cloth that was soft enough for Xiao Fubao. The little one was too delicate, and the coarse cloth would hurt her.

After becoming a father, Huo Yunchao became more and more able to understand his father-in-law's mentality of being "afraid of pigs over cabbages". The golden branches and jade leaves held in his palms made him wonder.

The pig that didn't like it was pushed away!

He was so angry just thinking about it!

Seeing that Huo Yunchao was not satisfied no matter what he chose, the shopkeeper gritted his teeth and took out the treasure of the store: "Dear guest, this is the cloud cloth just shipped from the capital. It is as soft as clouds."

Cloud cloth?

Huo Yunchao was attracted by the name, took a closer look, and smiled.

Aren’t the so-called clouds just cotton?
