Making money, taking exams, and raising a family in rural imperial examinations

Although he planned to hire someone to help Lin Sangui with work, Lin Ze definitely did not intend to come quietly.

It is not in line with his current situation to do good deeds without leaving a name or something. He has to spread the word about any good deeds he wants to do. It is impossible for Chen Shuju and others to sit comfortably and be lazy and take advantage of him.

Zhang Yu also agreed with this.

After the couple agreed, they discussed the details of their future plans at home in the afternoon.

When it was approaching dusk and the villagers were returning home one after another, Lin Ze took Zhang Yu's hand and went out, going to He's house to hire workers with great fanfare.

Although I still feel a little ashamed holding hands with Zhang Yu this time, I am not as resistant as before, and I feel a little more sweet in my heart.

That was the beginning of the germination of feelings, and all the couples walked hand in hand from the feeling of shyness and embarrassment.

On the road, he ran into villagers who secretly greeted him in surprise. Lin Ze was still thick-skinned, looking like a newlywed Yaner showing affection.

When someone asked them what they were going to do, Lin Ze greeted them very enthusiastically. Zhang Yang replied,

"Where are you going to hire workers?"

A group of villagers immediately wondered, "What kind of work do you hire?"

"The field is harvested during the busy season, and my father is working alone at home. I don't feel at ease. My brother and I haven't taken care of the house here, so we can only spend money to hire someone to help. Although the family is separated, My dad is still over there..."

Lin Ze had a distressed expression, and those who didn't know really thought he was a dutiful son.

Zhang Yu really wanted to laugh, but he held back, tried to cooperate, pulled his sleeve timidly, and said in a low voice,

"Sanggong, let's hurry up and tell the He family. Dad must be very tired from working alone today. Find someone to help dad sooner..."

"..."

Even the honest Brother Yu said that, so Lin Ze must not be talking about hiring someone.

The villagers who heard it sighed in their hearts. They used to think that Lin Zeqing was high-spirited and unlovable, but now it seems that it is all prejudice!

Look at how filial this is. Let alone take the initiative to divide the family property, Lin Sangui is still thinking about it. No wonder Lin Sangui likes the boss the most. Such filial piety.

"It's right, your father is the only one in the field today, and we're so tired that we can hardly watch it..."

"That's right, Lin Ze, your father didn't even have a meal delivery person at noon, and I saw Mrs. Chen arguing with your father in the field in the afternoon. It's really annoying..."

Other villagers also echoed, filled with righteous indignation, and told what they saw.

Chen Shuju has been unhappy for the past two days because of the separation of the family, and has been showing her temper with Lin Sangui. She doesn't help in the fields, doesn't even cook, and hangs around all day long.

If she didn't go to help in the fields, Lin Xiaolian naturally followed suit and refused to go. Not to mention Lin Jianwen, he never helped the family with the excuse of studying, and the old man and the old lady couldn't do it at such an age.

It happened that Lin Erbo's family had something to do and didn't go to help today, so Lin Sangui was the only one left in the field who was so tired that the villagers happened to see him.

Lin Ze was amused when he heard it, this is really a pig opponent, he immediately roared,

"It's too much! How can they bully my father like this, I'll ask them to argue!"

After finishing speaking, he dragged Zhang Yuguai away to Lin's house first.

There are lively villagers behind who are not in a hurry to go home. They follow up with hoes on their shoulders. There is no entertainment in the village, and life is just based on other people's gossip.

So, after the Lin family separated that day, they surrounded the village again.

Lin Ze was also very cooperative with everyone watching the excitement, and began to question angrily before entering the door.

The whole process revolved around 'Lin Jianwen, how can you let your father go to work in the fields alone at such an old age, and he has no food yet! 'The central idea goes.

The voice is loud and the tone is sad and angry, almost the listeners feel angry.

Although the villagers all knew that Lin Ze's answer to this question was that Lin Jianwen was unfilial, and the unfilial scholar Lang would affect the rural examination, and the glory of the village would be lost, so they shouldn't follow suit.

But whoever made Lin Ze travel before crossing was at least a person who got into the position of a leading manager. He was best at calling and mobilizing the emotions of employees, and the contagious power of every sentence was too powerful.

In addition to the fact that Lin Sangui was working alone in the field today, the villagers couldn't help booing along with him.

Everyone thought in their hearts that as long as the people in their villages didn't speak out, the outside world wouldn't know about it, and it wouldn't affect anything.

But there are unfilial people in the village who must be scolded!Otherwise, what should they do if they learn from others in the future?

So when the village chief Li Laofu got the news and came, the door of Lin's house was already crowded with people. The villagers who followed suit pointed at the bronze-faced Chen Shuju and Lin Jianwen in unison, and scolded them until they couldn't lift their heads. .

And Lin Ze was useless standing there...

The husband and wife shut up tacitly, watching the nose and the nose, pretending that this was not caused by themselves.

Lin Sangui also stood at the door stupidly, watching the enthusiastic villagers 'seeking justice' for him, unable to react.

"Ridiculous, as elders, why are you making fun of me?"

Li Laofu, who understood what happened clearly, was almost so angry that he vomited blood. He stared at a group of villagers who watched the fun and followed suit and cursed, feeling that his life was about to be short.

The villagers who were being mobilized and scolded positively were interrupted and felt unsatisfied. They felt that they were the messengers of justice on behalf of the heavens.

"We are not wrong, village chief, the Lin family is too much, you haven't seen how tired Lin Sangui is working alone today, and he doesn't even have lunch!"

After finishing speaking, he still did not forget to pull out the proof of the rightful owner, "Lin Sangui, did you say you had lunch at noon today?"

"I didn't eat at noon..."

Before the words were finished, all the villagers slapped their thighs with enthusiasm, "Look at the village chief, we are right!"

Lin Sangui had a silly expression on his face, and the second half of the sentence was stuck in his throat: ...the mother-in-law didn't work, so he went home in the afternoon and made shredded pork noodles by himself. As the old saying goes, you should be kind to yourself when the farming season is busy.

But this silly expression fell into everyone's eyes, and I was so chilled that I couldn't speak. I was busy farming outside, and my wife and son at home didn't help me, but I didn't even give me food. My heart is cold!

The villagers were very sympathetic.

Although Li Laofu felt that something was wrong, but today he also saw Lin Sangui planting the fields alone, so he didn't bother to ask any more questions, so he quickly finished the justice and went home for dinner.

"Chen Shuju, you really don't change your nature! If you don't go to the fields with Sangui from tomorrow on, you won't be the daughter-in-law of our village! After the busy farming season, the time for self-reflection in the ancestral hall will add another two months!"

After speaking, he looked at Lin Jianwen again, a little disappointed, with a serious tone,

"Lin Jianwen, you are a scholar, and you are a talented scholar with a reputation. I don't want to say so much about you. Lin Sangui is your own father. You have worked hard for half your life to support your brother's education. Think about it..."

Although he didn't scold, this kind of vague lecture made people wonder. From now on, Lin Jianwen's image in the hearts of the villagers has completely fallen to the bottom.

Lin Jianwen is a dumb man who cannot tell what he suffers from eating Coptis chinensis.

He didn't mean to abuse Lin Sangui, but he never cared about it during the busy season every year. He didn't know that today Lin Sangui went to the fields alone, and his mother hadn't delivered the food yet.

"Uncle, it's the kid who doesn't listen to the things outside the window and reads and ignores the chores at home. I will remember it in the future."

Lin Jianwen held his hands in a respectful manner, but he was very good at smoothing things over.

Glancing at Lin Ze from the corner of his eyes, he hated him so much in his heart that he decided that Lin Ze did what happened on purpose today.

Although Lin Ze did it on purpose today, but the purpose was just to promote his "filial piety", and he didn't want to pay them money and hire workers for nothing. He really didn't mean to frame him. Who would have thought that things would develop into this picture .

If you want to blame it, blame the masses for their discerning eyes and warm hearts. The masses are God's assists!

In the face of challenges, Lin Ze has never shown weakness, and Lin Jianwen is ruthless, so he doesn't have to be too bright.

"Second brother, although there was a gap between you and me and we broke up, we used to be a family. Now the elder brother has to say something to you. In the future, you will study alone in the family. You have to work hard. Guangzong Yaozu let dad live a good life. It's up to you, but don't just study and ignore family affairs, my son can only do this little filial piety for his father, and I will help him hire a few more people for the work in the field..."

Lin Ze followed suit, with a sad expression on his face.

Everyone was emotional again, the boss of the Lin family... oh, what a pity.

Lin Jianwen's face turned pale, and finally he couldn't hold back any longer.

"Don't worry about it, brother, I'm also father's son, I will help father hire people for the work in the field!"

What I was waiting for was your words, Lin Ze frowned kindly,

"How good is this... Sigh, but it's also good. Now that I have separated the family and still take care of the family affairs, I'm afraid it will damage your reputation if it spreads."

"Well, I have agreed with the He family on the price of the hired labor. One person is [-] yuan a day, and you don't care about eating at noon. You can send the money to the He family later. Aunt He is not in good health and is taking medicine. It’s from a fellow villager, so if I give the money to them first, I’ll still work as usual, what do you think of my proposal?”

It's all said and done, is there any room for rebuttal?

Facing the eyes of the villagers, Lin Jianwen held back the blood welling up in his chest, and paused word by word.

"Big, Brother, Consider, Consider, Get, Truth, Zhou, Arrival."

"Hey, who told me to be the elder brother, I have to bear more, but I have been separated, and the family will have to rely on the second brother in the future. It's not early, the second brother should go to the He family to hire a worker, or you will be killed when it hits the meal. How rude."

Lin Ze accepted the move without changing his face.

Then he cupped his hands at Lin Sangui, "Father, forgive me for not being able to be close to you during this period of time. You should have a good rest. Tomorrow, Ah Yu and I will go to the mountains to catch some pheasants for you to raise. I will make up for it when you come to live with my son." , Ah Yu and I are leaving first, you should eat more at night, don't get tired."

After finishing speaking, he took Zhang Yu's hand and left, and when he squeezed out of the crowd, he turned around every step of the way, reluctant to part.

"Woo, my boss..."

Lin Sangui was so moved that his emotions surged, he couldn't hold back his composure and sat down at the door, wiping away his tears dully.

"Hey, Sangui, don't be sad. Anyway, you gave birth to a filial Lin Ze. Didn't Lin Ze say that he would pick you up to live in his house for half of the time every month? Thinking of you so much, the village will find you even when lighting lanterns. You should be happy, filial son who is not here."

The villagers felt sympathetic and angry at the sight, and went up to comfort them one after another.

Lin Sangui agreed with this, with tears in his eyes, "Yes, my boss is the most filial. He used to help me go to the fields every year when he was studying, but he loves me so much. Huh..."

Lin Jianwen, who also studied but never worked in the fields, was so angry that he had to contribute money and effort this time that he almost fainted.
