my grandmother

Chapter 146 Cognitive Unity
When Li Xiaonan came home, in the main room, Li Yuzhu and Sister Mei gestured back and forth to half a piece of muslin, discussing how to cut it most cost-effectively.

"Brother is back?" Li Xiaonan looked towards the east room.

"I'm back." Li Xuedong replied and leaned out.

"Is there nothing wrong?" Li Jinzhu looked at Li Xiaonan carefully.

"Brother is going to take the Qiuwei exam?" Li Xiaonan didn't answer Li Jinzhu's question.

"Just now I was talking about this with Eldest Sister." Li Xuedong came out of the room, "I originally wanted to take the exam, but I'm sure I won't pass the exam. I just wanted to see how Qiu Wei took the exam.

"But Mr. Dong Shan came to me today and asked me if I would take the Qiuwei exam this year. He told me to take the exam quickly. He said that because the son is in Jiangnan at the moment, Liangzhe Road Xuezheng is Wei Xuezheng." Li Xuedong looked at Li Jinzhu .

"I told your brother not to take the exam." Li Jinzhu answered directly.

"Brother, do you want to pass the exam?" Li Xiaonan looked at Li Xuedong and asked with a smile.

Li Xuedong hesitated, "I think so, but I'm not good at knowledge and writing, at least not now, although the professors praise me, Dong Shanzhang also praises me, but I know it myself, classmates,"

Li Xuedong paused, "Second brother Hong said, don't pay attention to the gossip of your classmates, saying that they say they are sour because they can't eat grapes, but they are indeed sour.

"I want to pass the exam on my own."

"What if your essays can't be written so well, and you can't pass the exam?" Li Xiaonan asked.

"Then I kept thinking about it. I also thought that it would be great if I was a great talent, just like Senior Lu in the government school, but I will never be a great talent in my life." Li Xuedong laughed.

"The prince said that he wanted to help my elder brother to pass the exam, but I refused." Li Xiaonan looked at Li Jinzhu.

"Damn girl, you are narrow-minded!" Li Yuzhu raised her hand and patted Li Xiaonan's head.

"Your Majesty said, there is no need for him to do anything. As long as my brother takes the exam, someone will take the initiative to take care of him, just like my brother is studying in the government." Li Xiaonan moved to Li Jinzhu's side.

"Then wait until you feel that your knowledge and articles are good enough to raise people, and then go to the exam." Li Jinzhu looked at Li Xuedong and said.

Li Xuedong nodded repeatedly.

The next evening, just as Li Jinzhu and the others arrived home, Li Yinzhu arrived in a hurry.

Li Yinzhu went to the kitchen first, handed a bag of white-cut mutton to Sister Mei, went into the main room, put a bag of plum cake on the table, and stuffed a bag of honey-soaked hawthorn to Li Xiaonan.

"Why are you here at this time?" Li Jinzhu took a piece of plum cake.

"Erlang asked me to come back. I said I would come back after dinner. Erlang couldn't wait. He kept urging me. He was annoying." Li Yinzhu poured a cup of tea and drank it.

"Is it about brother's exam?" Li Xiaonan asked vaguely, biting a honey hawthorn.

"Yes! I knew that you must know. Erlang Fei said that you must not know, that the opportunity is rare, and that Xuedong actually said that he would not take the exam. You didn't see him like that, jumping around in a hurry, what to say. "

Li Yinzhu put her head between Li Xiaonan and Li Jinzhu, suppressing her voice.

"How can I use the light of my son? I said at the time that this light can't be borrowed. Erlang said that I don't understand, so let me come back and tell the elder sister. The light of my son is really powerful." Borrow? How did you discuss it? I think even if you can borrow it, you shouldn’t borrow it.”

"Elder Sister also thinks that I shouldn't borrow it, and I think so too." Li Xiaonan nodded quickly.

"I'll just talk!" Li Yinzhu heaved a sigh of relief.

"Go back and talk about Erlang, don't always think about taking advantage of others, it's best to rely on yourself in everything." Li Jinzhu said.

"Well! I'll go back and teach him a lesson!" Li Yinzhu pulled up her sleeves and snorted.

Li Xiaonan raised her eyebrows and looked at her third elder sister, Li Yuzhu patted Li Yinzhu's shoulder from behind, "Look at you, there is the old man of the Hong family, don't open your mouth and shut up and teach others. Is your mother-in-law gone?"

"I left early the day before yesterday. On the day I saw her off, I slept until the sun was west and didn't eat lunch.

"I didn't say a word against her, she said what she said." Li Yinzhu confessed to the elder sister.

Elder Sister forbade her to speak back to her mother-in-law in person, this time, she really didn't speak up to her.

"Are you happy when your mother-in-law left?" Li Xiaonan asked with a smile.

"I think it's okay." Li Yinzhu glanced at Li Xiaonan.

"Is your mother-in-law here on business, or is she just here to see you?" Li Jinzhu asked.

"She said that she just came to take a look, but Madam Zhou said that she told the old man that she couldn't sleep well at night, and she wanted to come to Pingjiang City to find Doctor Tang's pulse, and to prescribe a prescription for recuperation." Li Yinzhu chuckled a few times.

Nanny Zhou was the youngest of the eight maids who had been dowry by the deceased old lady. She was only eight or nine years old when she was married to the Hong family. matter lady.After Li Yinzhu married into Hong's family, Mrs. Hong asked Nanny Zhou to be the lady in charge beside Li Yinzhu.

"Is there anything in your family that Nanny Zhou doesn't know?" Li Xiaonan's tone of voice was amazed.

"I don't think so. Nanny Zhou is too powerful." Li Yinzhu admired, "By the way, Nanny Zhou asked me to bring you this honey hawthorn, and she made it herself."

"I ate it." Li Xiaonan handed another hawthorn to Li Yuzhu.

The second elder sister likes honey hawthorn the most, but the eldest elder sister finds it sour.

"Is there nothing wrong?" Li Jinzhu asked with concern.

"What can she do? She gave me a bunch of prescriptions for giving birth, and I took them all. She gave me the next one." Li Yinzhu laughed, "I also brought me a bunch of books, a lot of them. , I took them all, and piled them all up in Erlang's study.

"I said I must read it carefully. If there is something I don't understand, let Erlang explain it to me. She said no, that she couldn't disturb Erlang's study, and started talking to me again, asking me to go back to Kunshan County. She taught me, and I said Okay, that's good. But I came to take care of Erlang. The old man asked me to come here. If I want to go back, I have to say something from the old man. I don't dare to make my own decisions.

"She asked me to go to the old man, and taught me how to say, this and that, I said I would not go, I was afraid of the old man, I wanted to go to her, and she began to say that she had a chest pain.

"Later she asked me what to do if I didn't understand, and I said I asked Ah Nan, and she said that Ah Nan knows what a little girl knows, and I said that Ah Nan is more knowledgeable than Erlang. , Huang Xianzun also praised Ah Nan for her knowledge. She started to say that she had a chest pain."

"Did your mother-in-law get doctor Tang's pulse?" Li Yuzhu asked, holding back a smile.

"I found it. I accompanied her. She complained to Dr. Tang at length. Mother Zhou secretly told me that she alone took up the work of at least three or four people. She asked me to take her home and hurry to go there again." Come on, let Doctor Tang accompany you, and get a share of Xie Yi, that Xie Yi is worth five taels of silver! Five taels! I will give you one blessing on the left and the other on the right, so I got four or five blessings!"

Li Yinzhu had a look of resentment.

"Take care of yourself, don't be angry." Li Xiaonan patted Li Yinzhu.

"I'm not angry, I just feel sorry for Yinzi."

"It's time to eat!" Sister Mei yelled, and brought the food up.

The family had dinner, and the cart to pick up Li Yinzhu was already waiting outside, and Li Yinzhu was sent away. Li Jinzhu and Li Xuedong said: "You prepare some gifts tomorrow, and go to Gaocunji the day after tomorrow, and tell Mr. Gao that you won't take the exam this year. Regarding the matter of Qiu Wei, just say that you think that the academic articles are not good enough, and you will take the exam a few subjects later."

"Okay." Li Xuedong quickly agreed, smiling.

"Buy a few catties of pine nut candies and keep them." Li Xiaonan followed suit.

Li Xuedong blushed suddenly, and muttered something for some reason.

"Ai Ye also likes to eat pine nut candy, you can ask which one in Pingjiang City has the best pine nut candy." Li Jinzhu confessed with a smile.

Li Xuedong blushed and responded.
