The daily routine of the ancient imperial examination

"I won't go!" Lu Ming directly refused.

"Hey? What's the matter with you kid?" Lu Dagui was stunned, "You have a good relationship with him, don't you? Just go and tell dad that you can't do it?"

Lu Ming thought about the matter of the two elders, and the more he thought about it, the more angry he felt. He felt very sorry for this cousin, but his father actually asked him to ask his cousin for help?

"Father, how can you do this? You haven't contacted my uncle for a long time, and now I need him for something, and now I remembered that you have the face to say this, but I can't!" Lu Ming turned his body to the other side On one side, he blatantly expressed his refusal.

"Mingming, what are you talking about? Who is Dad doing these things for? Isn't it for this family?!" Lu Dagui couldn't believe it.

"Anyway, I won't care about this matter. If you want to go, you can figure it out yourself!" Seeing that he couldn't make sense with his father, Lu Ming didn't bother to argue, "I still have something to do in the county, I'm going to get busy!"

After speaking, Lu Ming frowned and left.

Li Shi who was next to him heard the dispute here, lifted the curtain and walked in. Seeing Lu Dagui's angry look, he asked doubtfully.

"What happened? Why are you father and son still arguing?"

Seeing Mrs. Li coming out, Lu Dagui slammed the teacup on the table, "You still have the guts to ask? Look at the good son you have taught! It's really good!"

"What do you mean by that? What happened to my son?" The other party was immediately unconvinced when he heard that his son was not good.

Lu Dagui snorted coldly, and told Mrs. Li the ins and outs of the future.

"It's really a waste of raising him so big, and now I don't want to ask him to do a favor, just like a white-eyed wolf!"

"How can you say that about your son?" Li Shi listened and glared at him, "Don't you know Mingming's character? You don't like these people's sophistication the most, and you still bother him with this kind of thing."

"What's wrong with this kind of thing? I raised him so big, and now it's time for him to contribute, and I feel ashamed? No matter how embarrassing, it's because I spent my money to grow up so big!"

"Don't let Mingming hear what you said, or the child will be sad." Mrs. Li looked around the yard, and was relieved that she didn't see Lu Ming.

"Don't read it! I think he's back in the county again! This kid uses the county magistrate as a shield every day, and asks him to say a few nice words in front of the county magistrate, but he won't say anything even if he dies! This master let him be! How stupid! "

After hearing this, Mrs. Li rolled her eyes, "Isn't it good to be down-to-earth? It's not too tiring for someone like you to calculate and calculate every day."

Seeing Lu Dafu's attitude of not giving up, the other party couldn't help but began to persuade him.

"I don't think it's necessary to join in the fun. Anyway, you still have a lot of shops in your hands. If you leave with the boss, then the management of these shops will be handed over to others? If you lose, then Isn't it a big loss?"

"The key is that it is impossible to pay!" Lu Dagui followed like a demon, staring at Li Shi, "The last time we went out together, they all made a lot of money, like me, an old man who has been with him for so many years , can you give me a chance to make money?"

"Forget it! I'm too lazy to care about it. As long as you don't bother Mingming, you can figure it out yourself!"

Seeing that she couldn't make sense with Lu Dagui, Li gave up directly, "I'm going to prepare dinner, you can figure out a way by yourself."

Seeing that one or two members of his family did not support his idea, Lu Dagui patted the table heavily.

It was not until the evening, when the sun was about to set, that Lu Ming packed his clothes and came back from the outside.

Seeing her son came back, Mrs. Li quickly wiped her hands and fetched a basin of water for him, "Hurry up and wash your hands for a while before eating."

"It's okay, mother, I'll do it myself." Lu Ming quickly took the wooden basin, put it on the wooden stand and began to clean his hands.

Lu Dagui, who was inside the house, heard the movement in the yard, and came to the door with a cigarette stick.

Lu Ming looked up at the other party, but did not speak.

Seeing that he was ignored by his son, Lu Dagui felt a little embarrassed, knocked the cigarette stick on the door frame twice, and cleared his throat.

"Mingming, it's almost time for dinner. Go outside and call your grandmother. You don't know how to go home for dinner even after this order."

Lu Ming was unmoved after hearing this, and continued to wash his hands.

From the corner of her eye, Li noticed the commotion here, fearing that the father and son would quarrel, she quickly put the lid on the pot, "Anyway, the meal is ready, I'll call my mother."

When Li Shi's figure walked away, Lu Dagui cursed in a low voice and went back to the house.

The courtyard was quiet, and those words clearly reached Lu Ming's ears.

The strength of rubbing hands in the water gradually increased, and now Lu Ming felt an unknown anger in his heart.

He used to only think how happy his life was, but he never thought about it. After getting acquainted with his cousin, Lu Ming discovered that the faces of his family members had another side that he didn't know!

The grandmother who cared for and loved her so much in the past turned a blind eye to her other grandson, and even wanted to help her even at the expense of ruining her cousin's future.

His father, the philistine Lu Ming, knew it at first, but he just ignored his younger brother all year round. Now, because of a place to go out for business, he wants his son to contact his uncle's family and ask others to help him. How could his father have the nerve to ask?

If he can help the other party open this mouth, then all the words he said all these years will be in vain!

Getting up and pouring out the water in the wooden basin, Lu Ming felt a little irritable. In such a situation, he didn't know what to do except not to help.

After wiping his hands, he didn't want to enter the house, so he simply stood in the yard and waited for Mrs. Li and the others to come back.

Mrs. Li helped the old lady into the gate, and when she raised her eyes, she saw Lu Mingqian standing in the yard, and hurriedly waved her hand to urge her.

"Why is Mingming standing here? Hurry up and sit in the room, we'll have dinner right away."

"I want to wait for you to come back and go in together." He replied lightly.

Seeing Lu Ming's unhappy look, the old lady quickly broke away from Mrs. Li's support, and walked over by herself with a cane.

"Why does Mingming look unhappy? Did someone bully you? Tell grandma, grandma went to visit his family."

Seeing the old lady like this, Lu Ming sighed, "It's okay, grandma, let's go inside for dinner."

"Are you all right?" The other party asked nervously, "With grandma here, don't be afraid!"

"It's all right!" Lu Ming smiled and helped the old lady into the house.

Mrs. Li fetched water from the back to help the old lady wash her hands, and hurried back to the kitchen to serve the prepared meals to the table.

When Lu Ming sat down, Lu Dafu had already had two cups of peanuts.

He took a bite of the vegetable with his chopsticks and chewed it. I wonder if it was a psychological effect, but he didn't know how to taste it.

"Come on, Mingming eats meat." The old lady picked up a big chicken leg and put it in Lu Ming's bowl.

Looking at the meat in the bowl, he can't even eat vegetarian dishes now, let alone meat.

Quickly put the chicken legs back into the old lady's bowl, "Grandma, you can eat by yourself, I don't really want to eat these things now."

"Why don't you want to eat it? Mingming, don't you love chicken drumsticks the most?" The old lady looked puzzled.

Lu Dagui on the opposite side of the table noticed the commotion here, and snorted coldly, "It's not all you are used to..."

After hearing this, the old lady put the chopsticks heavily on the table, "Dagui, what do you mean by that? If Mingming doesn't have an appetite and doesn't want to eat, then don't eat. We can't force the child, can we?"

Lu Dagui took a sip of his wine, and muttered: "Combining with outsiders to bully my own father, turning his elbows outside, he is really my good son."

The old lady glared at the other party, "Dagui, did you drink too much again? Why did you start talking nonsense?"

"I'm not talking nonsense, he knows best," Lu Dagui poured himself another glass of wine, swung the glass, and looked at Lu Ming.

"Do you think I can't think of any other way? Hehe, when I, Lu Dagui, was crawling outside, you were still unborn from your mother's womb!"

"What's going on, Dagui?" The old lady became more and more confused as she listened, "Quickly explain it to your mother."

Lu Dagui took the wine glass and drank it down. Looking at the anxious face of the old lady, he couldn't help but smile.

If his son doesn't help him, his mother will always help him, right?

Since Lu Ming was too embarrassed to talk to Lu Erlang, let his mother go directly to Lu Dafu. He knew exactly what kind of personality Lu Dafu had. Let his old mother say a few words to soften him up, and he would definitely make Lu Erlang obediently submit.

Picking up the jug and pouring himself another glass, Lu Dagui took the old lady's hand and said drunkenly, "Mother, I'm busy, you must help me..."

"What's the matter?" The old lady's heart ached, "Dear expensive, just say, as long as mother can help, mother will definitely help!"

Hearing this guarantee, Lu Dagui closed his eyes and showed a satisfied smile, as expected, his own mother was the most reliable.

"Hurry up, Dagui!" Seeing his leisurely look, the old lady couldn't help urging.

Lu Dagui hit his head with his spare left hand to clear his head, then stared at the old lady, and said earnestly: "Mother, I need you to go back to Jinshan Village..."

Upon hearing the words "Jinshan Village", the old lady's eyes flickered. It couldn't be what she imagined...

She said nervously, "What's the matter going back to Jinshan Village?"

When Lu Dagui heard the old lady's question, he couldn't help laughing, and sprayed the other person's face with the smell of alcohol from his mouth.

"Mother, what else can I do when I go back to the village? Go find that Lu Dafu!"

When the old lady heard this, her heart skipped a beat. She hadn't told Lu Dagui about the divorce, so what should I do?

"Is this important? Does it have to be Lu Dafu?" The old lady tentatively asked with a nervous expression.

Lu Dagui turned his head and thought for a while, "It's about the same. Anyway, if you're not looking for Lu Dafu, you're looking for his youngest son."

The old lady swallowed guiltily, and gently withdrew her hand from the table.

"Dagui, why don't you think of other ways first?"

Hearing what the other party said, Lu Dagui frowned, and patted the table heavily with his right hand, "What? Mother, are you planning to watch the fun and not help your son?"

"Mother doesn't mean that." Seeing that the eldest son was angry, the old lady was at a loss, "Mother also wants to help you, but mother also has difficulties!"

"Difficulties? What are your difficulties?" Lu Dagui accused him angrily, "I think you two have colluded to watch me have fun!"

"How come, how come!" The old lady quickly explained.

"Then why do you say you don't want to go back? Do you know how important this opportunity is to me?!"

Lu Dagui directly took a few gulps from the jug, "I've been in charge of the shop for most of my life, and I'm tired of it! I also want to go out and run a business to make a lot of money!"

The old lady looked at her eldest son, hesitated for a moment, and decided to tell the truth, otherwise, according to Lu Dagui's temperament, she might not know how to hold grudges in the future.

How could Lu Dafu, a villager, help such a promising eldest son?At this time, the old lady firmly believed that her eldest son was the best.

She cleared her throat, and began to confess: "Dagui, mother, tell you the truth..."

The old lady opened her mouth, rolled her eyes, swallowed the words and spun again.

"Dagui, some time ago your incompetent brother got into trouble again. Mother was afraid that he would involve you, so she broke off the relationship. Now we are two families..."

When the voice fell, everyone at the dinner table was shocked.

"What?!" Hearing these words, Lu Dagui's wine was more than half sober in an instant.

"Broken relationship? Why?" He looked in disbelief, how could he ask the other party for help after the broken relationship?

"Mother, didn't this break for your consideration!" The old lady put all the responsibility on Lu Dafu, and said many bad things about him.

Lu Dagui listened patiently for a while, and then stretched out his hand to interrupt the old lady, "It's okay, breaking off your marriage is just breaking off your mother-child relationship, at worst, I, the eldest brother, will come to ask for it myself!"

The old lady picked the wood on the table with a guilty conscience, "The mother also added your name to the divorce book for you..."

Now Lu Dagui couldn't take it anymore, he got up and angrily overturned the dining table.

The pots and pans on the table were broken all over the floor, and the lobby was full of real residue.

"Who told you to make your own decisions?!"

The old lady was stunned by her son's yelling, and stood there stupidly, not knowing how to react.

Next to her, Mrs. Li was still awake. She quickly pulled the old lady to a place where there were no debris behind her, and then scolded at the other party: "After murdering my son and mother, you, Lu Dagui, are getting better and better after drinking some wine!"

"What do you know, you woman!" Lu Dagui jumped angrily.

Looking at the scene in front of him, Lu Ming's heart became cold. Is this still his family?Why does it look so strange.

The author has something to say: It is not necessarily a good thing that a normal person is born in a strange family. The ancient ethics and morality are on the head, and the life of the only normal person is the most painful and difficult.
