Rise From the Humble

  Chapter 225 Don't bully the young and poor

  For some reason, after Zhu Pingan praised the cook of the Li family, the atmosphere in the study seemed to improve, and the dark-bellied girl also felt much better.

  After the atmosphere got better, the little maid from Baozi curiously asked Zhu Pingan some questions from time to time, such as is Juren an official, does Juren not have to pay taxes, can Juren eat in restaurants without charging money, and so on.

   "Do you think you can be an official if you pass the Juren exam? Do you think you don't have to pay taxes and do corvee service if you pass the Juren exam? Do you think you can live comfortably if you pass the Juren exam? Do you think that if you pass the Juren exam?"

  Zhu Ping'an put down the book in his hand, faced the little girl with a bun face, and asked several rhetorical questions with the corners of her lips curled up.

   After hearing Zhu Pingan's question, the little maid with a bun face covered her mouth in surprise, "Isn't it true?"

   "Let me tell you, these are all true." Zhu Ping'an continued in a joking tone, curling the corners of his lips.

   Baozi little maid.

"Stupid girl, don't listen to his nonsense. Juren is only qualified to be an official, and the Zhongju will not directly assign official positions. Only those who fail to pass the Jinshi examination will go to the Ministry of Officials to apply for candidates. There are hundreds of people queuing up for a vacancy, and there is no way to line up. It won't be my turn when I get old."

  The black-bellied girl Li Shu curled her mouth in disdain, but the ending of these three words made her grow up.

   "Then if you are in the queue, you will be an official?"

  The little maid of Baozi puffed up her mouth, her face full of disbelief. The Zhu Pingan in front of him was just a cowherd boy before, and he didn't even have the clothes and food that he had. It's only been a few years, and the cowherd boy can be an official.

  That's not the point, okay!

  The black-bellied girl glared at the little girl Baozi who hated iron and iron, but the little girl Baozi shrank her head subconsciously with a dazed expression, not understanding why her lady was staring at her.

  Seeing this, Zhu Ping'an smiled lightly, then lowered his head and continued to read his book.

  The years are quiet, and the study room is quiet, except for the occasional silver bell-like laughter of the dark-bellied girl when she is watching "Yi Tian Tu Hui Ji".

Time leaves a lingering fragrance of ink in the book. Zhu Pingan reads the book attentively on the desk, and the black-bellied girl also sits quietly reading the book. Sprinkled with golden brilliance, it is like a golden boy and a jade girl.

Hua'er, the little bun girl who was bored and eating snacks, dozed off, Xiaopang rested her chin on her hand, her little head was still moving like a pendulum, and finally when she nodded once, Xiaopang didn't rest her chin on her hand. The little head landed on the table all of a sudden, making a "dong" sound, breaking the silence of the study room.

Zhu Pingan, who was concentrating on reading a book, was startled by the sound, and shifted his gaze from the book to the pitiful little bun girl who was clutching her chin, and then looked out of the window. At some point, the red clouds outside the window had dyed half of the sky red empty.

  It's getting late, and it's time to go home.

  Zhu Ping'an got up, started tidying his schoolbag, and put the books in the bag.

   On the other side, the black-bellied girl cast a hard look at a certain poor little bun girl.

  After Zhu Ping’an put away the book, he said goodbye to the black-bellied girl and others, carried his schoolbag across his shoulders, and left Li’s house in the afterglow of the setting sun.

Not long after Zhu Ping'an left, Li Shu, a dark-bellied girl, went to the bookshelf and casually flipped through the books on the bookshelf. She walked slowly to the side of the bookshelf where the biographies of celebrities were placed, and randomly picked out a few books from the bookshelf. Biography written.

The books selected by the black-bellied girl are all held by the little maidservant of the bun. There are six books in total, all of which are very thin booklets. "Biography" and "Yang Tinghe Biography".

"Go and call Wang Xiaoer here, and then go to the back kitchen to arrange a dinner party. Ma'am, I want to eat something light today, so you can let them do it." After choosing six books, the dark-bellied girl stopped her hands, The little maidservant with a bun holding a book at the side gave an order.

   "Good lady."

  The little girl with buns carried the book and put it on the desk, then trotted out of the study with her skirt in her hands.

   "Brother Wang" Baozi's little maid trotted all the way to the stable in the front yard and called out.

   Soon, Wang Xiaoer came to the study, and stood at the door waiting for the black-bellied girl to order.

   "Here, give those biographies to my father as soon as possible. You need to read more books in business. Well, if the master doesn't read it, let someone read it to my father at night."

  The dark-bellied girl Li Shu casually pointed to the six biographies on the desk and gave Wang Xiaoer careless instructions, but the cold light in her eyes let Wang Xiaoer know that this order from her lady is very important.

   "I would like to follow the order of the eldest lady, and the younger one will lead the horse." Wang Xiaoer replied very respectfully, and was about to go to the desk to pick up the book.

   "Wait a minute." The dark-bellied girl waved her hand.

  Wang Xiaoer stopped in response, bent over and stood motionless at the door.

  The dark-bellied girl took the pen and ink from the desk, found a fine brush and dipped it in the ink, opened one of the biographies of celebrities, and dropped the brush on the blank space on the back of the first page of the cover.

  The words written by the black-bellied girl in the book are almost exactly the same as the font of the main text of this biography. If the ink is not dry, it will really make people think that these words were there in the first place.

  Black-bellied girl On the back of the cover is a proverb:

  Ning bully the white-bearded man,

  Don’t bully the young and poor;

  In the end, there must be a day when the dragon wears the phoenix,

  Don't believe that I have holes in my pants.

  After writing this proverb in this biography, the black-bellied girl nodded, and said something very casually, so that it would be more comfortable to watch.

  After finishing writing, the black-bellied girl took another book, and inscribed a sentence after that, the font was exactly the same as the text of the biography, and the inscription was just right, not obtrusive at all:

  30 years in Hedong, 30 years in Hexi;

   Then the other four biographies, the black-bellied girl also added a sentence or two on the back of the cover page, all in the same font as the main text, followed by the following verses:

   "Being the farmer in the morning, and going to the Tianzitang in the evening; there is no such thing as a general, and a man should be self-improvement."

   "If you are young, you must study hard, and your articles can stand up; all the nobles in the court are full of scholars."

  "I have learned a lot since I was a child, and I have a high ambition in my life; while others have swords, I have a pen like a knife."

   "Don't make mistakes in Taoism and Confucianism, poetry and books will not fail others; if you are good and respect the world, you will be good even if you are poor."

After writing all the six biographies, the black-bellied girl Li Shu put down the brush in her hand, then called Wang Xiaoer, who was standing at the door opposite her, to the table, and pointed to the careless words on the back of one of the biography covers. Asked a sentence:

   "Look, are the words I just wrote exactly the same as the words in the main text?"

   "If the lady hadn't reminded me, I would have thought that these words already existed." Wang Xiaoer bent down and said.

   "Well, I'm at ease when you do things, go, remember to work more and talk less with the master." The black-bellied girl waved her hand.

   "I understand." Wang Xiaoer nodded vigorously, put away the biography, bent down and exited the study.

   "Let's go back too."

After Wang Xiaoer left, the black-bellied girl Li Shu said something to the old lady and other maidservants who were waiting in the study, and then walked out of the study, and the others followed the black-bellied girl out of the study and walked to the backyard .
