Broken leg by silly daughter-in-law

Chapter 124 Eccentric, greedy

After finally satisfying Aunt Shuanzi and Nan Nian's desire to boast, Liu Luochen hastily explained the addresses of those families to Uncle Shuanzi.

Selling fish on the street must be accounted for, Liu Luochen had a flash of inspiration, and called all three sons of their family back to teach Arabic numerals together.

Liu Luochen didn't force them to learn much, as long as they can use the numbers from 1 to 50 flexibly.

Record the number of fish sold each time and the amount of money, and finally he can reconcile the general ledger.

Fortunately, Arabic numerals are relatively simple. Liu Luochen deliberately took a wooden board and wrote numbers on it, so that they could review them constantly, and they knew each other well.

Liu Luochen specifically explained the size and style of the fish he sent to those families, and repeatedly asked to ensure the quality of the fish, before leaving.

Aunt Shuanzi enthusiastically persuaded him to stay for dinner, but Liu Luochen shied away several times before taking Nan Nian away as if fleeing.

The people in the farm family who really treat you well are all so eager and enthusiastic, which really makes Liu Luochen a little overwhelmed.

The weather is getting hotter, and it's summer.

The lotus in the pond is also in full bloom, which is quite a sight.

Seeing that the township examination was about to start in less than a month, several scholars around the village who wanted to take the township examination all got ready and went together.

Liu Zhiyuan is one of them.

Liu Tiezhu and Wang Shi were two people who were selling candy cakes on the street before, and they were beaten up by the boss.

After resting at home for a long time, I was able to leave the house.

Wang's legs and feet are still a little awkward, and it took a lot of money to take medicine and see a doctor.

But it made the two of them feel distressed for a while, and they also secretly cursed Liu Luochen.

Such a good recipe, not giving it to his own family, but making it easier for outsiders, is really a white-eyed wolf.

Wang's heart was even more reconciled, and whenever she was outside, she would speak ill of Liu Luochen to other women in the village.

But no matter what she said, Liu Luochen didn't care anymore.

Looking at Liu Zhiyuan's expenses for the rural examination, it is not a small sum of money.

The little money the Liu family had saved was also used up by medical treatment and medicine, so it was really hard to catch.

The youngest son's rural examination is to be a scholar's great-grandfather. This is a very big thing, and Wang thought of her daughter.

After learning that Liu Xiaodie was pregnant, Mrs. Wang was very reluctant to take out a dozen eggs from her home and visit Liu Xiaodie's home.

After pretending to be concerned, seeing that Qin Rui was not at home, Qin's mother was cooking in the kitchen.

Mrs. Wang came to her daughter and whispered to her: "Daughter, I am your mother. We are the closest in this life. You are the one who crawled out of my stomach. The Qin family has been living in town these days. Didn’t you earn a lot of money by doing business online?”

Liu Xiaodie's eyes, which were originally full of smiles, dimmed instantly, she withdrew her hand without a trace, and said indifferently: "The business in this house is all managed by my mother-in-law and husband-in-law. Do some simple work, I don't know their business."

The Wang family hated iron and steel, so she patted Liu Xiaodie, leaned closer and whispered in her ear: "You damn girl, Zhenzhen girls are extroverted, why are you turning your elbows outward, your mother's home is your home Well, if your brothers become angry in the future, they will support you. Your third brother is about to go to the township examination, and the money in the family is not enough. Can you help me with some money? Wait for your third brother Being a scholar in the exam is not just adding luster to your face."

Liu Xiaodie clutched the handkerchief with her left hand, her tight knuckles turned white, she looked at Wang in disbelief: "Mother, when my daughter got married, the dowry consisted of two quilts, a tub, and not even a dressing table. , not to mention money. The mother-in-law is in charge of the money at home, where do you ask your daughter to get you money, steal it?"

Embarrassed, Mrs. Wang covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and cursed bitterly: "Bah, it sounds so ugly to say that stealing is just a borrowed use."

Liu Xiaodie's eyes became colder, and she smiled faintly: "Mother, it's not that my daughter is not busy with you, it's because she has no money in her hands."

Knowing that her daughter has no money, Wang's complexion suddenly turned bad, she pinched Liu Xiaodie's arm fiercely, and said through gritted teeth: "The prodigal girl, she really is a loser, and she doesn't know how to subsidize her mother's family even after she gets married." , when your third elder brother passed the examination of a scholar, you still want to follow. Now the Qin family's business in the town is booming. I heard people say that they have made a lot of money. I don't care what you say What, you have to give me a few taels of silver, if the third brother's money is not enough, I will come to your house every day to make trouble."

After finishing speaking, Mrs. Wang shook her handkerchief, twisted her waist and walked out.

Mrs. Wang bumped into Mother Qin who came out of the kitchen.

Qin's mother looked at Mrs. Wang and said, "Why don't my mother-in-law sit down for a while? I'm cooking chicken for you on the pot. Let's eat here at noon."

Mrs. Wang looked at Qin's mother, smiled eccentrically and said, "Oh, it's said that girls are extroverted. I didn't know it before. Now that this girl is married, she doesn't recognize me as a mother. I can't stay here Now, don't bother my mother-in-law, I'll go now."

After speaking, Mrs. Wang left.

No one will be happy if a hot face sticks to someone's cold butt.

Mother Qin's complexion was not very good immediately, with an awkward smile on the corner of her mouth.

Liu Xiaodie quickly stepped forward to support her, and said apologetically: "Mother-in-law, we were just worried about my little brother, that's why we said the wrong thing, don't be as fussy as her.

As the saying goes, a son does not think his mother is ugly.

Liu Xiaodie can't say that her mother is not good, so she can only comfort her mother-in-law.

Fortunately, Qin's mother is a generous and straightforward person. Although she was dissatisfied with Wang's, she did not move to Liu Xiaodie.

Mrs. Wang didn't ask for money, so she was scratching her heart.

Now the family's money is really tight, and there are still a few months before the harvest in the field.

But the third child's township examination cannot be delayed. In times of crisis, I am afraid that he will have to borrow money.

When Wang passed by the courtyard of Liu Luochen's house, she rolled her eyes, and then walked quickly towards her own house.

Liu Tiezhu is the father of a white-eyed wolf, so she doesn't believe that his son can really drive Lao Tzu out of the house.

Liu Luochen didn't know that he was being missed again.

It has been a quarter now, and the book is very popular in the town.

Liu Luochen's pen name, Youran Jushi, is also very sought after by some literati.

Everyone read his book, and they all thought that he was the protagonist in the book, a literati from a poor background.

In the book, the protagonist repays his hatred with kindness, and in the end the carp leaps over the dragon's gate, which has become a good story in the circle of scholars.

The book of that story is even more hand-held, and it is being circulated eagerly.

Some masters even took the inspirational road of the protagonist in the book as a positive example to encourage students to study hard and report to the court with heart.

When the appointed time came, Liu Luochen and Nan Nian drove an ox cart to the bookstore.

In order not to be recognized by others, Liu Luochen even made some simple casual clothes at home.

He covered himself and Nan Nian with beards, and came to the bookstore pretending to be an ordinary rough man from the countryside. No one could have imagined that the layman Youran who had become famous in the local area was actually such a person.

The owner of the bookstore didn't come out when he first saw him, but when he found out that it was Liu Luochen, his attitude was quite different.

He directly regarded this person as a God of Wealth, because of this book, their bookstore made a lot of money.

Now that this master is here, he must not be an ancestor.

The owner of the bookstore hastily ordered his servants to wrap up this quarter's share of the money, and sent it to Liu Luochen with a smile: "Sir, look at this quarter's income, and your writing in the book is really wonderful. .”

Liu Luochen took the money with a smile, and the smile in his eyes deepened after he weighed it.

After he turned around and handed over the money to Nan Nian for safekeeping, he bowed his hands to the boss and said, "The book is so popular, I still rely on your help from the boss and the strong recommendation of the bookstore. Xiaosheng really dare not take credit for it alone."

Everyone in the world doesn't like to hear compliments, and the boss was all smiles when he was blown off by Liu Luochen's rainbow fart.

He leaned over to Liu Luochen and rubbed his hands: "Sir, I don't know if you have any new works in the near future. Please consider the small shop first. The small shop is willing to pay a part of the share as a deposit."

Such a Golden Bodhisattva must not be snatched away by others. The bookstore owner's smile is even more flattering and sincere.

Naturally, Liu Luochen had to have a good relationship with the patron's father, and Liu Luochen was also full of smiles.

The two boasted about their business, and he talked to his boss about the subject of his next storybook.

The owner of the bookstore said that his eyes were shining with gold, and he couldn't get enough of the call. He repeatedly called Liu Luochen talented, so he must hand over the book to their bookstore for sale.

After the conversation, the boss smiled and sent Liu Luochen and Nan Nian out of the back hall.

Liu Luochen saw a familiar thin scholar from a distance. He saw that the man's clothes were shabby and washed a little white, but they were very clean, with many patches on them.

He carefully carried a few books to the counter.

Liu Luochen narrowed his eyes, feeling that this person looked very familiar.

Nan Nian obviously saw his doubts, leaned into his ear, and whispered, "Ah Chen, this is the Han Xin I met in the village that day."

Liu Luochen suddenly realized that this was the scholar he saw kicked out of the house that day.

So he turned his head and asked the shop owner quietly, "Boss, are you familiar with that scholar?"

The owner of the bookstore repeated his goatee, glanced at the scholar in the distance, sighed, and said, "I'm familiar with him. The man's name is Han Xin. He is a scholar from a nearby village. He has a good literary talent, but his family is poor. Then I went to the store to copy books. Ordinary people can finish copying one book in three days, but he can finish copying one book in one and a half days, and his handwriting is very neat. He presumably copied books all night long in order to earn some money. I saw him before I have heard his wife praise Han Xin several times, and he is very good at writing articles, which is very spiritual, alas, what a pity, what a pity."

Hearing the boss's reminder, Liu Luochen realized that the scholar had thick dark circles under his eyes and a haggard face, and it was obvious that he couldn't rest.

But seeing the man's straight back and the unyielding look in his black eyes, Liu Luochen suddenly thought of the original owner.

Maybe it was the same situation when the young original owner went hunting in the mountains.

Forced by life, he had to go up the mountain to fight with wild beasts.

And this scholar is also suffering physically, just to earn some money to catch the chance of the imperial examination, Liu Luochen suddenly feels pity.

Liu Luochen turned his head and held Nan Nian's hand and asked in a low voice: "He is working so hard to win money, but he just wants to participate in the acquaintance, shall we help him?"

Nan Nian looked thoughtfully at the ragged scholar in the distance, nodded, took out 20 taels of silver from his pocket, handed it to the shop owner and said in a low voice: "That man is a scholar from our hometown, and the money is still worth it." In the name of the bookstore, the boss is helping that scholar with a township test, okay?" Here Han Xin is just an ordinary scholar who has nothing to do with historical figures.

This article is empty and does not want to be reconciled with any history.

In the end, this article is weak and strong, hahaha, I love you guys
