I made a fortune teaching live broadcast in ancient times

Three days of lively water banquet passed by in a flash.

This bustling banquet has been heard in the entire Hanjiang Town or in the entire Yunzhou County.

Those who came to participate included teachers, classmates and friends who reported, big households and merchants in the county and town, and magistrates, all of whom came to drink and have dinner.

After Chen Chen and Chen Shanzhu sent off the last clansman who came to help, the sun was already setting outside.

Chen Chen raised his hand and pinched the bridge of his nose. He was extremely tired from the three-day banquet and entertainment. This entertainment was more tiring than staying up for several days and nights in his previous life for dissertations.

Seeing San'er's tired face, Chen Shanzhu was happy and felt sorry for San'er's body, "You are tired, there are no guests now, you should go and have a rest."

"It's okay, the weather is a bit hot, I'll just wash my face with cold water." Chen Chen shook his head, he still has something to do now.

While talking, the father and son returned to the lobby. At this time, the whole family was in the living room, and the gifts from the big families in the town and county who came to the banquet before were all placed on the table in the lobby.

Looking at the things piled up on the table, except for the statement, everyone else's eyes were straightened.

But no matter how greedy everyone is, it's useless. If there is no division, these belong to the public family, so they have to wait for Queen Chen to distribute them.

But Chen's mother is not the kind of ignorant woman with shallow eyes. She knows that the big and rich people in the town and county give such heavy gifts. Let's make it clear that with this relationship at that time, you can find Saburo if you need anything.

Therefore, Chen's mother did not put away all these gifts, but looked at the statement, "Sanlang, these are gifts from the guests who came to the town and county for dinner these two days, you see how to deal with them."

Upon hearing the statement, he carefully checked the contents of the gift box, some were silver taels and some were cloth jewelry and medicinal materials.

After inspecting the things, he divided them into two parts, "Mother, take this as a record, and we can communicate with each other in the future."

Then he pointed to the large portion, "All the gifts for this one will be returned, we cannot accept them."

Speaking of which, when the banquet was held at the beginning, Chen's father said that the big guys can only come to eat and drink directly, and don't bring gifts. It's okay in a village, they are all with the same surname from the villagers, and they also send their own melons and fruits when they come to the door. Vegetables, other things, Father Chen never accepted.

But those big families in the town and the county, some of them had no one to live in, but sent stewards to give gifts, and the serious ones just dropped the gifts and left, regardless of whether the Chen family refused or not.

But fortunately, there are records in these gifts. Please record clearly what each family sent.

At that time, it can be returned according to the record.

Moreover, it was stated that the returned gifts were too big. One of the merchants in the county sent a silver note of 500 taels, which the Chen family absolutely could not accept.

Regarding the statement that the gift should be returned, neither Chen's mother, Chen's father nor Chen Dalang Erlang made any sense, and Sanlang did what he said.

But it was hard for the two sister-in-laws. So much silver and cloth jewelry were returned, which made them very uncomfortable.

The second husband, Xiao Wang, said that he was the nephew of his mother-in-law and was closer to his sister-in-law than his sister-in-law, so he said, "Mother, do you really want to return all of these?"

Chen's mother glanced at the reluctance of the two daughters-in-law, and felt a little sour in her heart. Depending on their behavior, outsiders may think they are too greedy, but it is true. So the family is poorer than other families.

The whole family, including her, had never seen so much money, such beautiful cloth and jewelry.

To be honest, she herself is not as calm as she appears on the surface. She is reluctant to look at the silver and beautiful cloth jewelry, but after all, this is not her own. She is guilty, and she believes that Saburo will earn it back for her in the future. These things are a hundred times better.

"Yes, all back, since Saburo said back, there must be a reason to go back."

After hearing the firmness in her mother-in-law's words, Xiao Wang and Dalang's daughter-in-law Xiao had no choice but to feel reluctant.

"Father, elder brother and sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, I know that my family has worked hard for me to study all these years. Without you, I, Saburo, would not be where I am today. Mother, thank you big brother and sister-in-law, thank you for your hard work!"

That's right, Chen Sanlang's success today is really all supported by the Chen family, especially Dalang Erlang. After all, Chen's father is old, and the main source of income for the family depends on them. They usually hunt in the mountains. , or just go to the pier in the town for handling.

So they deserve to say thank you.

Seeing Chen Chen stood up and bowed his hands to thank them, Chen Jia Dalang hurriedly stood up to help him, "Sanlang, what are you doing, get up quickly."

"Da Lang, let him salute, you guys deserve San Lang's salute." Mother Chen is a mother who understands etiquette clearly.

He knew that these years he had been supplying Sanlang for reading, which made his family poor. The two daughters-in-law had no complaints in their hearts, but the second daughter-in-law was her nephew, so even if she had thoughts in her heart, it was hard to say it clearly. After all, Sanlang was not only his brother-in-law but also his cousin. .

As for the eldest daughter-in-law, she is not stupid. Although she has complaints in her heart, she endures them thinking about the better days in the future.

But people are mutual, it is love to help you, and it is duty not to help you, even between brothers.

So in addition to letting the big and second families enjoy the blessings in the future, but also let them know that their contributions are remembered by San Lang in their hearts, so San Lang's thank you will move Da Lang Erlang even more than giving them money directly.

Just look at the red eyes of the eldest and second daughter, and the same is true for the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law.

"With Saburo's thanks, I'm very happy." Dalang's daughter-in-law Xiao Shi suddenly cried.

"I'm not afraid of your jokes. I was actually afraid of Sanlang before. I was afraid that Sanlang would be prosperous in the future, so we don't need poor brothers, because there is a whole family in our village who can help him to be a scholar. After that, he failed to pass the exam three times. After passing the exam, the poor family didn’t even have tiles, and then he went to the county to become a husband, kicked out his parents, brothers and sisters who worked so hard to provide for him, and even came to the door to be the son-in-law of a rich family.”

"What nonsense are you talking about, my mother-in-law, my Saburo is such a black-hearted person." Hearing what his mother-in-law said, Chen Dalang was black-faced, and while scolding, he looked at the expressions of his mother and third brother, deeply afraid that his mother and third brother would be angry because of this.

Chen's mother just curled her lips and didn't speak. She also knew what Xiao Shi said, so it's normal for Xiao Shi to be worried. It is not worthy to carry shoes for Saburo.

And Chen Chen was not angry at Xiao's words, "Brother, don't blame sister-in-law, it is understandable for sister-in-law to think so. It is indeed Saburo's fault that the family drags brother and sister-in-law to suffer in order to support me to study."

"Now that I am a Juren, even if I don't continue to take the entrance examination, I am still a celebrity in this county, and I also have the choice to let go of officials, so you don't have to worry about the future, I will definitely not let my parents and elder brothers and sisters-in-law Second brother and second sister-in-law, you have suffered."

Parents will not talk about it, this is the duty of a son, and the eldest brother and sister-in-law and the second brother and the second sister-in-law, let alone other things, just say that they have been making money for Chen Sanlang to study for so many years. Chen Sanlang can have today, except In addition to the timely presentation, except for Chen's father and Chen's mother, most of them can be said to be the credit of the eldest brother and the second brother.

So he stated that it was Chen Sanlang, and it was his duty to let the elder brother and the second brother live a good life. As long as the two families would not do anything harmful to him in the future, he stated that he was willing to support his brother and sister-in-law.

Father Chen didn't speak, but he spoke to Bizhong Center, "Sanlang, do you mean that you don't plan to continue the exam?"

As soon as Father Chen said this, the whole family, including several children, looked at the statement and wanted to know his answer.

"Yes, Dad, I don't plan to continue the exam for the time being." Seeing what Chen's mother was anxious to say, he stopped him.

"Mother, listen to me slowly."

Chen's mother held back her anger, "Okay, I'll just listen to what you can say, you are now a juren, and you will go to the capital next spring to continue the exam for the number one scholar, but now you say you don't want to continue the exam, you don't want to be the number one scholar to become an official, Then you haven't done it in vain for so many years."

Seeing that Chen's mother was angry, Chen Chen was not in a hurry, chuckled lightly, and then picked up the younger brother of the elder brother's family next to him, and this time slowly explained the reason why he did not continue the exam.

"Father and mother, eldest brother and sister-in-law, second brother and second sister-in-law, you also know that the one above is old now, and the one below has nine sons. Now is an important period of competition for positions. Children from poor families like us need backgrounds. No background, no money, no money, the competition for their superiors is cannon fodder, and if they really want to be admitted to the top prize at this time, it will be a dish delivered to their door, for people to eat, maybe they don’t know how they died that day.”

"Mom, you also know your son's personality, and I don't have much ambition. From the first day of school, I just want you to live a good life and not be bullied."

These words are indeed from the heart of the original owner, Chen Sanlang.

"Look, I'm a juren now, and I'm on an equal footing with the county magistrate, and all the taxes in my family are exempted. It can be said that in this Yunzhou county, no matter whether it's a gentleman, a celebrity or a wealthy family, they all give me this juren." To save face, and you are my family, no one dares to offend and bully you, so I can completely let the family live a good life, after the nobles above compete for confirmation, I will make plans according to the situation."
