Easy to farm

Chapter 229

After Lin Xu came back from Yang County, because of his status as a scholar, many people came to visit him every day. Those from rich families brought many gift boxes in their hands, and most of them would chop a few catties of fresh meat. Yes, I couldn't help but bring a basket of eggs laid by my own hen, which is called a congratulatory gift.

For the visitors, Pei Xiangxiang was a little annoyed, thinking about how he didn't see these people reaching out to help when Lin Xu's family conditions were not good, even when he couldn't even eat. Now seeing that Lin Xu is only fourteen years old, He is already a scholar, so it can be seen that there are indeed many icing on the cake in the world, and there are few people who give charcoal in the snow.

However, because Lin Xu was injured and the corners of his face and mouth were still bruised, he couldn't see guests. Pei Xiangxiang wanted to keep these people out, but considering her relationship with Lin Xu, it was not convenient for her to make decisions. I had to ask Han Shi for instructions, and let Han Shi see what to do.

Han family naturally loves her son very much, how can she bear her son's appearance to be seen by others, thinking that Lin Xu has endured a lot of hardships for the exam, because of this, Lin Xu is too tired to take the exam, fell ill, and now obeys the doctor's advice Advise, rest at home.

Those who wanted to take the opportunity to get close to Lin Xu, when they heard what Han said, they thought it was Han who was perfunctory to them, and thought that Lin Xu was promising now, so they didn't want to see them, but they soon realized that Lin Xu had done it himself. After I came back, I really didn’t leave the door, and I didn’t walk through the second door. But Dr. Li and Huzi from Quanfutang went in and out of Pei Xiangxiang’s house every now and then. No matter how I looked at it, it seemed that Lin Xu was really sick.

After everyone found out that Lin Xu was indeed ill, the number of visitors did not decrease, but increased. Some of them were shameless. When Lin Xu first came back, he was ashamed to follow those who obviously wanted to please Lin Xu, and went to see Lin Xu together. Now that Lin Xu was ill, there was a reason to visit him, so there was an endless stream of people who went to Peiji Wholesale to inquire about Lin Xu's news, and gave Lin Xu gifts.

Compared with Lin Xu who passed the exam smoothly and got a good rank, Pei Xingliang looked a lot more bleak. He studied earlier than Lin Xu, and his family conditions were better than Lin Xu. He even took the exam for several rounds in a row. However, if you want to take the exam again, you have to wait another three years.

When Pei Zhenglian learned that Lin Xu had passed the examination as a scholar, and that he was still a student, he was still very happy. Even the disappointment that Pei Xingliang had not been able to bring to him was reduced by a few points. For the first time, he selected several books from his collection and gave them to Lin Xu, which was regarded as a congratulatory gift to Lin Xu.

Lin Xu was flattered by Pei Zhenglian's move, and it also surprised Pei Xiangxiang and the others.

After Pei Xingliang failed again, he did not intend to give up. He was going to make persistent efforts and take the exam again. However, Pei Xingliang asked someone to come back with a message and asked Pei Xingliang to find him. Originally, Pei Xingliang planned to leave Nanhe Village with his wife and children to join his father-in-law. The plan can only be shelved temporarily.

As for Lin and the others, after packing up their things, they followed Pei Xingliang and went directly to Pei Xing's family, while Pei Zhenglian and Zhu's could only stay in Nanhe Village for the time being. Then go to meet with the boss of the Pei family. As for how to deal with the house in the future, Pei Zhenglian wanted to convert the house into money and let Pei Yongping take it, but Zhu's only wanted to rent out the house and come back to live in it later.

After Pei Yongping knew what Pei Zhenglian was thinking, he directly rejected Pei Zhenglian, and told Mrs. Zhu euphemistically that his house was enough to live in, and he didn't need to rent another house. He just told Mrs. Zhu that if he wanted to rent out the house in Nanhe Village, he didn't need to find another house. Him, he didn't think so.

However, Pei Zhenglian didn't want to give up so quickly, and persuaded him again, "The yard you live in Qingyang Town is so big, it's not a lot of money in a month, and you even bought a shop, although the shop can make money, but You can't spend money recklessly, I don't feel relieved to sell our house in Nanhe Village to others, but I am [-]% assured if I give it to you, since there are so many of you now, you should buy a house to live in."

Mrs. Zhu does not want to sell the house [-]%. Although she also wants to live in the city, after all, Pei Xing's family is not her child. Naturally, it is not as comfortable as living in front of her own son. Those who are obedient and willing to listen to Zhu's words, if they leave Nanhe Village and live in the city, and because Pei Xing's family has spent money to donate an official, no matter how big or small the official is, she is also an official's wife, Zhu's This stepmother had to depend on her stepson for a living, so maybe Mrs. Lin would show embarrassment to Mrs. Zhu.

Speaking of which, Mrs. Zhu is not the kind of brainless and short-sighted. Therefore, when Pei Zhenglian keeps talking about selling the house, she is not happy. If she goes to Pei Xing's house to live comfortably, she can still Go back to Nanhe Village.

Otherwise, Pei Xingliang would have taken refuge in his Yue family, Pei Yongping had already separated from the Pei family, and the most obedient son had already had a conflict with her. As for the daughter-in-law Yang, she was unwilling to live with her, let alone Xu, an orphan It is difficult for a widowed mother to support herself, let alone support her, Zhu thought, and there is no way out.

It's a pity that Zhu's thoughts can't affect Pei Zhenglian's decision. It's true that she is the mistress of the Pei family, but Pei Zhenglian is the head of the Pei family and the person in charge. When he said he wanted to sell, Zhu could only murmur After muttering a few words, I had a good time, and in the end, I had to help Pei Zhenglian and persuade Pei Yongping to accept Nanhe Village.

With the previous experience and lessons, Pei Yongping naturally wouldn't be so hot-headed that he couldn't bear Zhu's soft-heartedness and insisted on it. Therefore, when Pei Zhenglian and Zhu's persuading him again and again, he said with a serious face. , "Buying a house is a big deal. I'll go back and discuss it with the child's mother and Xiangxiang. If they think it's all right, I'll tell my parents later."

When Mrs. Zhu heard Pei Yongping's words, the expression on her face changed slightly, her brows were raised, a little unhappy, and she said, "You are the head of the family, so it's possible that it's a family matter, and women and children have to nod? Now you He is also a decent person, if you go out, whoever calls you Second Master Pei, how can you be as coy as a woman when you do things."

In Zhu's opinion, she and Pei Zhenglian have both talked, and the price of the house is definitely not too expensive. Pei Yongping should be happy to accept it, and then thank them, but he doesn't want to agree at all, even though he didn't directly refuse, But his answer was also a tactful disguised rejection again.

When Pei Yongping returned to Qingyang Town and told Yang and Pei Xiangxiang Pei Zhenglian and Zhu's thoughts, as well as his answer, Yang breathed a sigh of relief, and Pei Xiangxiang also smiled and nodded, but silently gave Pei Yongping's advice from the bottom of his heart. Like it, she is a cheap bun, finally learned a lesson, and gradually has the posture of the head of the family.

In the future, it will definitely be better, Pei Xiangxiang looks forward to it and believes it.
