Rebirth of Okuki Kofuro

It happened that Qujiang and their private school had a break today, so he went out to play with his friends for a while, and when he came back to read and do homework, he saw his brother and brother-in-law.

Qu Jiang cheered happily, and immediately pulled his brother-in-law to the room. He had accumulated a lot of questions during this time, so he quickly asked his brother-in-law.

Qu Yi looked at the younger brother who was happy and free from worries, and thought that he would make the younger brother well in this life, so that the same thing as in his previous life could not happen again, causing the younger brother to become gloomy and depressed.

Seeing that the younger brother listened to Xianggong's explanation, Qu Yi asked in a low voice, "Master, do you think it's necessary to persuade parents to send younger brother to a bigger school?"

"No need for the time being." Liang Kangsheng shook his head. "My younger brother is still in the early stages of enlightenment. The master in the private school mainly teaches him how to read. If you go to the school, you may not be able to keep up with the master's teaching. It's a waste of time."

It can be regarded as wrong, the private school that Mrs. Qu chose for Qu Jiang was run by an old scholar. The old scholar didn't want to stay in a crowded school when he was old, so he returned to his hometown and opened a private school by himself, only to enlighten children ,At ease; leisurely.

The old scholar's knowledge is average, but his temper is not bad, and he is dedicated to his students. He teaches slowly, and students learn slowly.

And his teaching method is very suitable for children from farmers like Qujiang, with a solid foundation, whether it is to continue to study or to learn other things after literacy, it is fine.

Liang Kangsheng felt that Qujiang would study in a private school for another year like now, and then go to the school in the county after learning all the characters, so that he would not suffer from being bullied because of his lack of solid foundation.

After thinking about it again, Liang Kangsheng said slowly: "The school is in the county seat. If he wants to go to the school, he can only live in the school. Xiao Jiang is only ten years old now, so his parents probably won't worry about it. Let's wait for him to grow up. "

Qu Yi thought that Liang Kangsheng was familiar with the school, so what he said must make sense, so he nodded to him: "Well, listen to your husband."

Qu Jiang buried his head and finished writing. He looked back at his brother and his husband talking quietly, and suddenly felt sour. His brother used to be his brother alone, but now he has a brother-in-law. He felt that his brother seemed to be closer to his brother-in-law. .

"Brother, what are you talking about?" Qu Jiang put down his pen and ran up to the two of them.

Qu Yi made an excuse casually: "I'm asking your brother-in-law, how far you have learned now, and can you take the county exam."

"County Examination?" Qu Jiang stared wide-eyed and waved his hands quickly, "I have just finished studying three hundred thousand, and I haven't even finished studying other books of elementary school, let alone the Four Books and Five Classics. The master said that we entered the examination room like this I can’t even read the title.”

Some families send their children to private schools not for literacy, but for concentrating on imperial examinations, hoping to glorify their ancestors and change their families.

Qu Jiang remembered that a family member of a class A student came to the private school and asked the master when his child could take the county exam. Why didn’t he go after two years of study?

The family refused, and insisted that the master was not good at teaching. The master was so angry that he canceled the student's training and asked the child to go back to self-study.

After they left, the master explained to all the students the thirteen classics of elementary school that he was going to teach, and also the four books and five classics to be tested in the county examination. If you are satisfied with his teaching, you can take the child back, and you can no longer go to the private school to make trouble.

So Qu Jiang heard Qu Yi mention the county exam, and immediately stated that it wasn't that he didn't want to take the county exam, but that the master had said that he didn't have the ability.

"Well, that's the truth." Liang Kangsheng nodded in agreement, "Xiao Jiang, follow your master to study hard, and you can ask brother-in-law if you don't understand anything."

Qu Jiang's eyes rolled around, thinking of Liang's delicious cakes, and brother-in-law's explanation in more detail than his wife's, he smiled: "Brother-in-law, then I will go to you every time I have a holiday?"

Normally, Qu Jiang would have three days off in a month, one day in ten days, but he might not be able to meet Qu Siniu and Mrs. Meng to go to Liang's house during his holidays. He has been to Liang's house twice in the past six months.

But if the brother-in-law agreed to explain the knowledge to himself in the future, Qu Jiang would have reason to persuade his parents to agree to him going to the Liang family.

"Of course." Liang Kangsheng didn't refuse. He didn't have to go to school, he was at home every day, and Qujiang could come anytime. Liang Kangsheng liked Qujiang, the younger brother of his husband, more than his two mischievous cousins.

"Thank you brother-in-law." Qu Jiang cheered.

Outside the house, Father Meng was a little surprised when he heard Father Liang talk about their troubles: "Dear family, you mean that you bought a large piece of wasteland and want to ask how to grow it?"

Father Liang nodded: "I think that piece of land is good, but it has been abandoned for so many years, and no one in the family knows how to take care of the field. I want to ask my in-laws."

"It's not that the old man hides his secrets. The people who opened up wasteland in our Meng family's big house are really not very good at it. With the skills to open up wasteland, everyone is more willing to study and study woodwork." Father Meng took a puff of dry tobacco, he was telling the truth.

He learned how to farm the land from his father and grandfather. He just managed his own field enough for the whole family to eat, and he didn't spend any more time on the crops in the field.

"Actually, when it comes to farming, the most powerful one in our area is Qujia Village. Their land generally has [-]% more harvest than ours." Meng Shan hesitated for a moment and said.

People from Meng’s big house can do woodwork. People from Qiao’s village who are close to their Meng’s big house can go to the mountains to cut wood, gather medicine, and find mountain treasures. pier……

In short, besides farming, everyone has other jobs for a living, so they can earn money from other things instead of just working on the land.

Father Meng knocked on the cigarette stick, and said slowly: "Indeed, Siniu's eldest brother is a good hand at tending the fields. Usually, when the farming season is not busy, his eldest brother can plant all their fields by himself."

Speaking of his own family, Qu Siniu was embarrassed to intervene, because his mother made him sad by doing assholes, and planned to quarrel with his brother-in-law in court, but the eldest brother is the eldest brother, and the mother is the mother, and the eldest brother is honest and responsible, and did not do anything. What's wrong.

Father Liang thought for a while, and said to Qu Siniu: "Father-in-law, how about this, let's go to Qu's house together after lunch and take a break in the afternoon. My legs and feet are recovering, so I should go there and have a look."

Father Liang is familiar with the Qujia Village and the people of the Qujia family, but after the two families got married, they have not officially moved around. It can be said that it was because he was injured and his legs and feet were inconvenient.

Qu Siniu didn't agree, because he wasn't sure if his mother would speak bad words at him or even blow him out when they went to Qu's house.

Just as he was hesitating, Father Meng took the lead in agreeing. It has been so long since the matter of the county government office, Siniu and the others should go back and have a look. With their in-laws around, old man Qu wants to save face and won’t let Mrs. Qu Recklessly.

Now that he decided to go to the Qu's house, he couldn't do it empty-handed, Zhuang asked Liang Duodao to drive the carriage back to the Liang's house to pick up some things and give gifts later.

There would be no room for seven people to squeeze into a carriage, so Qu Siniu took the time to find the village head of the Meng family mansion to borrow a cart, planning to follow the carriage with his wife and children later.

Unexpectedly, when they set off, Liang's father asked Meng to take the carriage, and he took his son to follow Qu Siniu and Qu Jiang in the ox cart.

Mrs. Meng refused but got into the carriage. There were many of them along the way, and the carriage and the ox cart were chatting and laughing together, which was quite lively.

And the Qu family was also not quiet at this time, because Mrs. Qu found a full ten eggs in the big house!

"My old lady said why the chickens in the house haven't laid eggs recently. It turned out that there was a thief in the house, a thief who was thundering from the sky, who gave you the courage to touch the eggs in the house!" Old lady Qu cursed and started Pinched Mishi who was standing in front of her, frothing and agitated.

"Ten eggs, why don't you kill you! An old hen that doesn't lay eggs, gives birth to a house full of losers. Take a look, are you qualified to eat eggs?"

"Back then, I was really blind. I was fooled by the matchmaker, and chose you, a lazy woman with dirty hands and feet, and said, did you steal anything else from the house?"

The Qu family raised a total of five hens. In the past, there were almost three to four eggs a day. Three of the eggs were given to Qu Yaowen, Qu Yangwu, and Qu Zhicai. Old man Qu divided the two.

But in the past one or two months, the hens don’t know why they don’t place orders frequently. There are only two or three a day. Sometimes the eggs are not enough at home, and the old lady Qu has to spend money to buy the one next door, which makes her very angry. .

Eggs are not expensive, less than one penny each, and [-] can cost more than [-] pennies, but she is not happy to ask her to pay for it. For this reason, Mrs. Qu stares at her chickens every day, vowing to kill the thieves who steal the eggs. Catch it.

After staring like this for more than a month, Mrs. Qu didn't find anyone stretching her claws towards her chicken. Just when she thought it was because the hen was too old to lay eggs, she "accidentally" found ten chickens in the eldest son's room. egg.

This made Mrs. Qu excited, she yelled immediately, looking at her posture, it seemed as if the big house stole her coffin.

Mishi was so frightened that he trembled all over, and with trembling lips, he could only say: "Mother, I don't, I don't..."

Ever since she saw her mother-in-law walking out of their room with eggs, Mi Shi couldn't think of anything. She was timid, but now that Mrs. Qu caught the evidence, she couldn't even say a word. I didn't dare to say more, I was overwhelmed with fear.

The old lady Qu put her waist down and scolded Mi Shi: "The old woman took out eggs from under your bed, you dare to quibble, Qu Daniu, where is he going? Hurry up and beat this thief woman!" Where to send it! Don't put it in my Qu's house and make the old lady worry all day long."

After lunch, everyone was resting at home, and Mrs. Qu's relentless yelling once again attracted the neighbors around.

When Qu Daniu came home from the field panting, he saw his daughter-in-law, Mi Shi, kneeling outside the courtyard door crying to her death, and her mother standing in the courtyard with her hips akimbo, looking like she was fighting a rooster.
