[Comprehensive martial arts] With the martial arts protagonist

It took only one year for Ayu to successfully transform her status into a scholar, and the changes brought about by this fame to the entire Qin Family Village were enormous. Among other things, the biggest change was the arrival of people from the Orion Village in the southwest. The uncle of the Qin family discussed and wanted to merge into the Qin family village.

These hunters may not care that the development of Qinjia Village is faster than them, or that there are more people here than them. After all, they rely on hunting for food. It is easier to go up the mountain over there, and the prey is more abundant, but they have to care about the future. The development of children and grandchildren has to consider the health of the family.

Originally, when Ayu was a doctor, they were already very close, so a girl married to Qinjia Village. Although the conditions there were not as good as Qinjia Village, it was still difficult to marry a daughter-in-law in Qinjia Village, but this has already made the two villages successful. After entering the village of in-laws, it is much more convenient for them to see a doctor, but when Ayu became a child, they somewhat had the idea of ​​joining the Qinjia Village, thinking that all the children in the Qinjia Village could read and write under Ayu's teaching, This made them extremely envious, but it was still difficult for them to give up their one-acre three-point land even though the family was worth a lot.

Waiting for Ayu to become a scholar, they can't wait any longer. A scholar is a school teacher, Shu Xiu is still cheap, and he takes out famous doctors. Where can we find such living conditions? If we add all-brick houses and open land The guarantee of wasteland, the possibility of donating land, all these seem to have an incomparable attraction, which makes their hearts jump violently. Hurry up, act now!The speed is fast for fear that someone will get the benefits before them.

As the in-law village of the Qin Family Village, it is still in the mountains, a scattered village that basically does not pay much tax, and the village closest to the Qin Family Village, basically there is no administrative obstacle for this attachment. In this way, the Qin Family Uncle naturally has no possibility to shirk, not to mention that people have said that they pay the money to buy the house themselves, even if they borrow money, they will pay it. Originally, the land in that small village was exchanged with Uncle Qin's family as money, and it was registered there anyway. If it is cultivated, Zhongtian does not guarantee it, but Xiatian can always be counted. With such a neat style, even the last one who declined blocked.

Ever since, Uncle Qin's and Ayu's plan to expand the four sets of small courtyards with three entrances in the west has been expanded again. On the village drawing, the place facing south has been lined up with five words, that is, Fifteen small courtyards, if the last long row of livestock sheds is added, the area of ​​the entire enclosed house has already exceeded Ayu's original calculation. If it is calculated according to one family per courtyard, Qinjia Village will reach 53 households, totaling The population has also exceeded 250, stepping into the ranks of medium-sized villages in Anhui Province. Among them, Ayu's students will also exceed 50, and almost every household has a student.This number gave Ayu a headache. With so many children, how should he teach them?

As for the land mentioned by the hunters, to be honest, Ayu is not short of silver, he really doesn't care about the silver, but he is not a Buddha who saves all living beings, and he understands more deeply what it means not to suffer from the few but to suffer from the inequality, so he just I was able to walk around any Orion village with all my heart and look at the land and title deeds. I really can't look at it!The land there is indeed not small, and it is not much different from here in Qinjia Village. Almost every household has a large yard, either three or four mu, or five or six mu. However, most of those lands are sloping land. There are a lot of miscellaneous rocks in this field, and farming is very troublesome. This is the reason why these hunters have not converted into farmers. More importantly, because it is a gentle slope, that is to say, if wild boars are flooded on the mountain, then if there are wild boars here Food, and which livestock are most vulnerable to the scourge.

Although there were many problems, the uncle said that it was not worthwhile, and it was almost better than buying wasteland, but Ayu finally accepted this piece of land, and even bought the whole circle around the village. There are a total of [-] mu, and he just used it from outside. The land price of the sloping land is just that he does not farm the land, he directly plants fruit trees, apples, persimmons, pears, grapes, and watermelons under the fruit trees, and surrounds the entire orchard with wooden fences.

Don't talk about who suffers and who is cheap, in Ayu's view, he is leaving an extra piece of family property for future generations, which is much better than leaving bank notes, at least this thing can't be stolen, and then Jealousy is useless, and the longer the orchard is planted, the more valuable it will be. If the population of my own village increases that day, and there are more villages along the Shahe River, it is impossible to say that this orchard can still sell for the land price of high-quality fields. !After all, he knew that the Qing Dynasty still had more than 200 years of luck, so it was worth it for him.

As for those fruits, they can be sold for money, given away, or even brewed. If there were no tea trees here, Ayu would want to build some tea gardens.He has experienced so many planes, and he deeply realized that there is nothing more affordable than land. With so many bank notes in his hand, he felt uneasy holding them. He always felt that keeping them was a disguised form of encouraging himself. It is better for a child to become a real thing than to be a dude.

Looking at the books of Ayu today, you can know his mentality. It was just a decorative bookshelf, but now it is full, and two larger ones were made, side by side, leaning against the wall. On the other hand, there are almost all kinds of books that can be bought in the market on the shelf. Although this is also because the bookstore in the county is not big, it also cost Ayu more than 300 taels of silver.

Not only are the special books for scientific research and extended theoretical references complete, which are comparable to those of the county school, but the medical classics are also complete, and there are other travel notes, prose, history books, poems, prose, etc., which are the art of war, miscellaneous studies, Taoism You can also find Buddhist scriptures, which are more complete than the bookstores in the town.If there is a seed for reading in the village at any time, there is no need to go outside to buy books, just copy a copy from Ayu.

The uncle didn't know how much silver Ayu had, but he knew quite a lot. Xiaobao kept getting people to send things over, and he knew that his nephew would not have to worry about money from now on. Look at Xiaobao The style of giving the gift shows that the child is probably well-off, and it is the nephew's blessing to be able to remember his childhood partner like this after he is well-off. He firmly believes that this is the blessing of children and grandchildren.

As for Ayu's purchase of books and land, he thinks this is a sign of a prosperous family business. What can better reflect the heritage of a family than books?Only educated people are truly good people.He even kept motivating his stepson to learn from Ayu. If he wanted to, he would spare time to copy Ayu's books. Firstly, he could learn better, and secondly, he could give more to his children and grandchildren. In the family, only scholars and nobles would use books as family heirlooms.The family that owns books is also the one most likely to prosper.

Uncle’s views made uncle’s mother agree with them very much, and Dalang and the others nodded frequently. Thinking about the most difficult time at home, if his own father was able to read and write, he would probably be able to work as an accountant in the store. Still waiting for work on the street, suffering from such an indiscriminate disaster!

As for Qin Shi, he was nagged by his ears, he had to study hard, like his cousin, he had to take an exam and come back, so that his parents would look good, even Ayu's son, who was just about to start enlightenment, was also talked about a lot.

When Ayu was 20 years old, he successfully passed the Juren examination. At this time, the uncle went out excitedly to visit the ancestral tombs of his hometown, and moved the tombs of the three generations of his ancestors to the southwest of Baimi Mountain. Baimi Mountain is my family's treasured geomantic omen. If my family didn't live here, how could I have such luck that I suddenly changed from not having enough food and clothing to being a scholarly family!

Ayu has become a Juren, the door of the house has been smashed and re-covered, there is an extra door at the door representing the identity of the Juren, the inverted seat in the front yard has also been refurbished, and the area has been expanded a big step forward. When the door was opened, the three rooms on one side became a school, and the three rooms on the other side became a medical clinic.And the work of tanning leather has been taught to the uncle and Sanlang. After the house was built, the uncle began to toss about moving, saying that he wanted Sanlang to get married in the new house. Ayu knew that this was done by the uncle for his future brother Xiao Qiang. It's not easy to stop him, and he doesn't plan to give all his family fortune to other brothers. After all, it's not the last few times, he has no offspring, it doesn't matter, he always has to think about his children, right?So now all the three small courtyards in the row have lived in. The first set is the uncle and aunt leading Qin Shi, followed by Dalang, Erlang, and Sanlang.

Ayu's eldest son is four years old and has a one-year-old daughter. Qin Shi is also six years old. Dalang's daughter is three years old and has a one-year-old boy. Erlang also has a newborn son. Sanlang just got married. The daughter-in-law was just pregnant, and the prosperous population of Lao Qin's family made the uncle smile every day.

When Ayu became a Juren, the old Qin's family was naturally exempted from the labor tax immediately. As for other villagers, they also came to the uncle in a hurry, wanting to donate, and put all the land in Ayu's name in the government, exempting the labor tax , it can be regarded as letting them also get a piece of Juren's blessing.Of course, they will not be ignorant, and will not give Ayu any benefits. The annual benefit fee that is less than half of the imperial court's profits and taxes will still be given, so that Ayu can share the benefits with them.What's more important is that in this way, they will be able to get the protection of Ayu, the master of Juren, and they will have less trouble in the future.

Uncle naturally agreed, this is to benefit the people, and more importantly, this is his nephew's decency, status, how could he not do it?

As for Ayu, at this time, he didn't have such a troubled mind. There was only one name in his mind, and that was Xiaobao. At this time, Xiaobao also had it. According to the book, he should go to Jiangnan. When will it come, he can feel that Xiaobao will definitely come to see him, even if it is not for him, he will also visit his mother, and now Xiaobao's mother - Wei Chunhua is a landlady in Shahe County!

Ayu kept counting the days, and asked the beggar gang for news. After several tosses, he finally figured out that the current Xiaobao is probably still in Moscow. I remember that the book said that Wei Xiaobao arrived in Moscow in April. This year, and stayed there for a few months before turning back, calculating the distance, it is estimated that it will be the end of the year when he arrives in the capital. Ayu's scientific research will be at the end of August and early September. Xiaobao's news should be New Year's Eve.

Thinking of this, Ayu felt a little more at ease, thinking that Xiaobao would have to rest for a while when he arrived in the capital, as if he had brought the envoys of the Raksha Kingdom with him, so if he could go to Jiangnan and go to Yangzhou, it should be next spring, so Thinking about it, Ayu started to make trouble again, he thought, where will Xiaobao live when he comes?Did he come secretly, or did he travel openly?At this time, Xiaobao already has a title on him, what kind of title is it?He also seems to be used to the luxurious life. I don't know if he can get used to it when he is here, and what should the beauties who should appear in Yangzhou do like this?Those are all Xiaobao's daughter-in-laws!It's not good to lose all my daughter-in-law in order to come to Chuzhou!

Ayu left the trivial matters at home to his uncle, aunt and daughter-in-law. While sorting out medicinal materials in the pharmacy, he kept thinking about those messy and irrelevant things. In a daze, a pair of big hands patted him on the shoulder. Subconsciously want to unload and fight back, at this time a deep man's voice rang out, dispelling Ayu's counterattack.

"Ayu, what are you thinking! I have called you several times."

It was Da Lang, it was noon at this time, Da Lang came back from hunting and collecting herbs in the mountains, and took a basket full of medicinal materials to clean up on the counter of the medicine shop.Dalang is the one who knows the most medicinal materials among the brothers. Naturally, his main income depends on these. Hunting can provide meat for the family, leather can make clothes, and the grain in the field can be used for dry rice. By the way, helping to fetch medicine at Ayu's pharmacy became his job to save money.

At the beginning, it was just a small pharmacy, which could be played by Ayu alone. Now, the pharmacy is being opened tightly. After people from the surrounding villages and even the town began to come here, the business of the pharmacy is getting better and better. Well, Ayu really couldn't do it all by himself, so a division of labor began. Ayu was in charge of seeing the doctor, Dalang helped to get the medicine, and the uncle often came to help collect the money.

It’s just that Dalang must go up the mountain every morning, and sometimes even Ayu often goes up the mountain, so whether in the village or elsewhere, everyone knows that it’s best to come in the afternoon when you want to see a doctor. Of course, emergencies are not counted. .

Dalang is a man of duty, and he knows what is good or bad. Every time he collects medicines, he calculates that he only needs less money for the medicinal materials, and never takes more. Ayu also trusts him, so now Dalang often puts the medicines he collects directly. Go to the counter to sort it out, count the catties and put it directly into the account book, and settle it together at the end of the month when calculating the wages for Da Lang.Everyone thinks it's good to distinguish between public and private. Even Erlang and Saburo sometimes go to the mountains to collect medicinal materials, and they also use this method.Brothers of my own family don't need to pay money and deliver goods like outsiders, it's so extravagant.

As soon as Da Lang came over today, he saw Ayu handling medicinal materials, and felt a little surprised. This Ayu is already a juren, why is it still the same as before? Doesn't it need to socialize with some talented people?He had heard before that those juren lords were already able to become officials because of their fame, so they often walked around the yamen and the like, but how could Ayu, a juren, be different from others!

Out of curiosity, he asked, who thought that Ayu didn't respond, he couldn't help but stepped forward to pat it, but seeing Ayu's reaction at that moment, he immediately knew that this Ayu was actually distracted.He also practiced martial arts with Ayu when he was young. Although he was not a good player, his reaction was very clear. He belonged to the kind who knows how to do it, so he asked directly.

Ayu looked at Dalang, closed the drawer of the medicine cabinet casually, held the corner of his mouth and said:

"What else can I think about? Isn't it crazy? I've been annoyed to death recently. Fortunately, those trifling uncles have worked hard, otherwise my head would be swollen to death."

Upon hearing Ayu's words, Da Lang laughed, pointed at Ayu with his finger,

"You, I'm really dissatisfied. You're a Juren now. How annoying are you to talk about such a big matter? Didn't you see how happy your father was? Those parents in the village who sent their children to school, those in-laws, All of them have face because of you, and their chests are straightened by two inches, and you, the master of the matter, are still annoying! Be careful, dad will beat you with the sole of your shoe."

Let's talk, touched his nose again, and then said with some emotion:

"That's you, the natural seed for reading. Look at me, and Erlang and the others. They have followed you in recognizing a lot of characters. I have read books for several years, but I also have self-knowledge, that is, I can recognize some characters." If you go to the exam, don't talk about raising people, it's just a dream, you're just a child, I'm afraid you don't have the ability. Those who say, what, can directly put people I was dizzy. I thought about it, probably because I was a little older when I read and read, so it was useless. So ah! I will count on my kid in the future, and wait for him to be three or four years old. Let him be enlightened and study with you, I don't ask him to be as successful as you, and I will be satisfied if I can come back as a boy student in the exam, and I can talk to my father when he goes to the grave in the future to make him happy."

After talking, the voice dimmed. No matter how good life is now, he can't forget the tragedy of losing his father. Sometimes he would think, if his father hadn't died, it would be great!Even then, perhaps he would not be what he is now. Every brother would live in the compound one by one, and he would not have so many abilities. At most, he would be the same as the old Liu family, but he felt in his heart that he was willing to do that, not now. This stepfather is not good, to be honest, it can't be better, but he still regrets not having a real father in his heart.The book says that the child wants to support but the relative is not there, so it is like this!

Ayu didn't know what he was thinking, but when he heard him talking about studying, he shook his head, sighed and said with a smile:

"It's always good to study, but it's just a test, so it's hard to say. To put it bluntly, it's not only a question of talent in reading, but more importantly, there is also an element of luck. I don't know how many students take the exam every year. , How many scholars can pass the exam? Really, those students who study well are about the same level as those scholars, but those places are limited. As a result, now, it depends on who is lucky, and the questions in the exam Hexin, the article he wrote is in the eyes of the examiners. As for the selection of talents, it is even more terrible. Some of the top few in the examination for scholars, if they are careless for a while, it is not uncommon for them to lose their names. Let me say, let the question of fame and fame be ignored Let go, study first, then talk, take the test if you can, and don’t worry too much if you can’t pass the test. If you can’t say it like this, you can relax. This is a big mistake."

What Ayu was talking about was his perception in the past few lives. He didn't know how to read these imperial examination books at the beginning. If he didn't have the ability to eat, he would have starved to death long ago, but what he heard in Dalang's ears meant something else. , I thought it was Ayu standing and talking without back pain, her face changed slightly, but fortunately Ayu had recovered at this time, her mind was very clear, and she knew what she said just now was a bit too much, let Da Lang listen to it Thinking that I was laughing at him, or looking down on his son, no matter how magnanimous a person is when it comes to children, he will become a cub-protective temper, so he hurriedly added:

"Speaking of which, what I said was a bit too much, but this time, when I was taking the exam, I saw several candidates who were already gray-haired and ragged. Obviously they were poor, but they were still obsessed with the imperial examination. I don't know. Looking for another livelihood, I was very touched. At that time, I thought, if my luck is not good, then I will pass the exam three times at most, and then I will not take the exam again, so as not to miss the family affairs and miss the children. Fortunately, God is counting Me, it’s just that I’ve thought about it too. It’s a blessing to be able to get Juren now. I don’t dare to ask for extravagance. I don’t want to be a Jinshi. I'm afraid that one day I'll get lost in it too, and when I go to Beijing again and again, I'll squander all my family assets, what will my children and grandchildren do? Hey, studying is good, but it's also difficult!"

This time, Ayu included himself and what he had seen in the examination room, which made Da Lang relax his mind, savored Ayu's words carefully, nodded his head, and asked in surprise for a moment:

"Don't take the Jinshi exam? Dad is still thinking about your title on the gold list! Don't ask for a top scholar, at least you can set up a Jinshi memorial archway to Guangzong Yaozu. If you don't go, dad will probably jump!"

Although he listened to Ayu's words, he felt that it made sense. He couldn't support his family, and he couldn't afford to worry about food and clothing. It was a bit too much to only think about the exam, but he still couldn't understand that Ayu didn't participate in the capital competition. Naturally born academic masters, test masters, look outside, there are a few people like Ayu who can become famous in the examinations again and again without being taught by teachers and studying everywhere. They are simply people who are born to go up. Such people It was too puzzling that he stopped by himself.

Ayu smiled after hearing this, and then said helplessly:

"I'm not a son of a famous family, nor a scholarly family, and I don't even have an upright gentleman. I can pass the exam all the way just by relying on my own cleverness and the books I read randomly. It’s not that the examiners are all suffering from eye diseases, how dare they continue to torment! What if the examiner finds out that I’m ignorant and inexperienced and come to get to the bottom of it, how about it? Maybe I can’t keep my current fame.”

Speaking of this, Ayu moved closer to Dalang, winked and joked:

"I'm calling it as soon as it's good, so as not to accidentally lose the old bottom."

Da Lang couldn't help laughing at such a playful joke.While shaking his head, he tidied up the medicinal materials in his hands, and joked about Ayu, telling his uncle to give him a beating sooner or later to vent his anger and other nonsense, while Ayu was begging for mercy with a playful smile, begging Dalang not to forget to ask for help when the time comes, the two brothers talked and laughed It returned to its original appearance, and even made jokes about the embarrassing stories of the boys of the two families. Da Lang didn't hide the matter in his heart, and let it go after he said it. think:

After all, they are all grown up, they each have a family, and they don't have to be as unscrupulous as they used to be when they were young. I really have lived more and more, and I have become unrestrained. I still have to be cautious in the future!
