Rebirth Farmhouse

Chapter 298

In May, Xuexian took the entrance examination, Qin Yang lived up to his high expectations, and still ranked among the best, and became a scholar in high school.As for Qin Xian, it was not surprising that he failed, in the eyes of Zhou Huiren and other gentlemen, and even the county magistrate Huang said that Qin Xian had originally passed the county examination, not even the government examination.

I think it might be because I studied with Qin Yang for a period of time and got a lot of inspiration, so I raised a higher level in the government examination, but the college examination was not so easy.

After all, the college exam is a very strict exam, and Xuexian is also from the Imperial Academy, so it is not so easy to talk about human feelings, and I prefer to simply read articles.

Qin Yang can go to the county school if he is selected as a scholar, and he can also be exempted from the chores and taxes. Although Qin Xian is not selected as a scholar, he is still a child and can be exempted from certain chores.And because Xiuyao donated money to the county, set up tables and chairs in the school, and sent a lot of food, vegetables, meat and eggs to the county school every year, so Qin Xian made an exception and was allowed to study in the county school.

Seeing that Xiuyao's donation to the county school has gained a good reputation, other big households have followed suit, so the county school is doing very well now, and there will be no more situations where candidates have to rent tables and chairs by themselves.

Huang Zhixian was even more relieved. Originally, he wanted to repair the county school, but he didn't know about those big families when he first arrived. Although his predecessor had mentioned some points, he had never dealt with them personally. If he came here, he would ask them to pay for the goods Yes, I'm afraid others have opinions.Who knew that Xiuyao was transparent, he just showed such a little meaning, so she asked Qin Ye to send money, and even offered to send some vegetables, meat and food to the school, at least it could improve the meals for the gentlemen.After all, the rations stipulated by the imperial court were limited, and they were only enough to cover food and clothing, and they had to be tight. After a long time, the mouth became very dull.

Because of this, the Qin family's reputation in the county jumped to the forefront, which made some big families unconvinced.

There were also some funny things happened, but the Qin family sat upright in front of them, so there was no major problem, and they lived comfortably.

Mrs. Liu is busy asking someone to find a marriage for Xiurong again.

At night, she whispered to Qin Dafu, "This person is really not easy to satisfy, let's just talk about ourselves. When the days are better, talking about kissing is more troublesome."

Qin Dafu smiled and said: "Of course it is. When life is poor, a son can be a daughter-in-law. It doesn't matter whether she is good-looking or not, as long as she can give birth well. When a daughter marries, it doesn't matter if he has a house and land in his family. It’s good for people to be able to have a harmonious family. Now that life is better, you have to consider the right family. Our family has a house, a land, a shop and a business, so we don’t want to find a poor family with nothing at home. Now we Yangyang are also scholars. Our lintels have been raised, and the farmers don't like to think about it, especially Xiurong, I think Bi Yaoyao is worried."

Mrs. Liu hummed, "That girl Yaoyao has nothing to worry about, she's making up her own mind."

Qin Dafu sat up suddenly, and said to Liu Shi: "I'll see if we Yaoyao like that child Jing Liang, speaking of that child is not bad, he is also simple and honest, he has a deep relationship with our family, and life at home has improved. Yaoyao won't suffer if she goes."

Liu Shi was startled, didn't answer, and then said: "Yaoyao is still young, let's talk."

At the beginning, his third grandfather joked that he wanted to marry her family, whether it was Xiurong or Xiuyao, whichever was fine.However, at that time she used words to muddle through, and with relatives, they were relatives, and if she were to be in-laws again, she felt that the family rules of her natal family were right and not good.

Although it is possible to get closer, it may also destroy the relationship between relatives.

They have such a good relationship with the third grandpa's family, so they don't have to follow the path of their children's relatives, and she thinks that although Hongmu is good, Xiurong doesn't like her. Although Xiuyao has a good relationship with Hongmu, she dragged him to open a shop to make money and support him She opened a shop by herself, but when it came to getting married, she concluded that Yaoyao would not agree, so she refused decisively to avoid future troubles.

And the third grandpa also knew what they were thinking, so he didn't mention it now, instead he was busy making an engagement for Hongmu. Liu Fei was already engaged, so he couldn't lag behind.

On the other hand, Jing Liang, the eldest is not young, and he has never been engaged, and when he asked, he said that he wanted to drag his younger siblings.

But now his younger brothers and sisters are not too young, and his younger brother is also a child born. Although he didn't pass the exam as a scholar, he is not bad.

Why isn't he engaged yet? She said she would help Zhang Luo before, but he declined.

Could it be that he really misses Yaoyao?

But, it's not like, although he and Yaoyao are close, but it doesn't make people feel that there is something wrong, on the contrary, they are more like brothers and sisters.

"Yaoyao is not in a hurry. If all the daughters are married off, my heart will be empty and I won't be happy." Mrs. Liu pulled the thin quilt to cover Qin Dafu, lay down, and said, "That day we went to Feng's house and listened to the two What grandma means is that she wants us Yaoyao to marry them Haoran."

Qin Dafu was sleepy, and muttered: "I don't think we should worry about Yaoyao, no matter who it is, you have to ask her. If she disagrees, what you say is useless."

Mrs. Liu also said yes, but she was still thinking about the matter of beauty in her heart. If it is said that the married girl is far away and does not move around often, it is better to be close.

Now Xiuxian and Xu Zhenyi are married, and now they live in the county. Xu Zhenyi and Qi Feng have opened a martial arts gym together, and they dragged Xiuyao into a part of it.

In this way, everyone lives together, Liu feels very good, and can take care of each other.

Yaoyao just said that the military officer of the second sister's husband's family can not only teach the common people to keep fit and protect themselves, but also let those who have achieved success in their studies rely on it for a living.Qi Feng's boat gang now needs a lot of manpower. Those who go out to sea with them should not only be quick-witted and healthy, but also have some kung fu. Otherwise, they will be cowards if they encounter robbers or something.

As the business gets bigger and bigger, the martial arts gym of the second brother-in-law will only get better and better.

Liu's heart was fluctuating, thinking of the year Yaoyao fell into the water again, she couldn't help but said: "Father, you said that Yaoyao fell into the river once, and when she came back, she really was different, if it wasn't for her own birth , I wonder if it was replaced by someone..."

Qin Dafu had already fallen into a drowsy sleep, and he still listened habitually, and replied: "If this is changed, it is because God is merciful to us, so go to sleep..."

It is very hot in midsummer, and the big families in the county will store ice. When it is coldest in winter, they go to the river to open the gate to release the water, and when it freezes, the people who specialize in ice storage go to dig ice.Almost all of them are one foot square, and they are stored in a special ice cellar, and then sold in summer.

There are people who specialize in storing ice and then selling it. The ice sold in Dazang Ice Shop is not expensive. When it is the hottest, ordinary people in the county can buy a dozen or so. It is a big piece, and it can be kept cool in the house. Mung bean soup can be chilled and tastes very refreshing.

Because Qin's family gave Feng's a lot of greenhouse vegetables and fruits in winter, so in summer Feng's gave Xiuyao's ice.

Feng Haoran led the boy to pull two big pieces of ice to deliver them in person.

There are not many people in the Qin family, and not everyone can put ice in their room. Liu Shi asked to put ice in the most spacious main room, so that they can go there for eating and doing things, and it is very cool.

Xiuyao was settling accounts, and Liu Zheng, Sun Xiaoyi, and Yuanyuan were studying there. Liu Zheng led them to read the Three Character Classic. Sun Xiaoyi and Yuanyuan read a sentence and then lowered their heads to grab toys from each other. You pull my sleeve and I push you. .

Soon, two chubby little men huddled together, either you pressed me or I rode you, they either pulled your hair or twisted your ears, and your fat calves were kicking.

Just after the fight, Yuanyuan yelled loudly, "I'll never be with you again," and after turning around for a quarter of an hour, she went to play with Sun Xiaoyi again, and Sun Xiaoyi scolded him loudly, "I'm brother, you have to listen to me." my words."

At first the adults were fighting for them, but later they were allowed to go. Anyway, Liu Zheng, the king of children, was watching them.

He is not as good at reading as Yangyang, he is simple-minded, simple-minded, and he is a king of children.

Feng Haoran appeared out of the window in a white silk dress, looking cool and elegant. When Yuanyuan saw it, she immediately stretched out her little fat hand, "Little uncle, give me sweets!"

Xiuyao, who was in the room to settle accounts, jumped up immediately when she heard it, "Rouyuanzi, what do you call it?" She stepped forward and picked him up. This little thing, since the last time Feng Haoran came to bring a bag of Beijing The foreign candy bought in the store, this kid just yelled for an extra piece, and I don't know who taught him indiscriminately, let her know that he must give it a good look!
Feng Haoran was smiling, facing the sun in summer, his cheeks were flushed, and beads of sweat hung on his neat temples.

"Yaoyao, don't blame the kid, he's not sensible, it's fine."

Xiuyao glanced at him, what do you mean it's okay? It's a big deal, okay? She corrected Yuanyuan a few words, and then went to entertain Feng Haoran, "My mother made porridge and lotus seed soup. It's chilled. I'll serve it to you." .”

Feng Haoran agreed, and then waited for her in the room, while playing with a few boys.

When Xiuyao came back, she saw that he had become the king of children and had a great time playing with Yuanyuan in his arms. The boy was eating peaches, and the juice dripped on Feng Haoran's skirt, but Feng Haoran was confused. don't care.

Xiuyao couldn't stand it anymore, she hurried forward and lifted Yuanyuan off, "Dirty uncle's clothes."

Yuanyuan immediately smiled, "Auntie, help me wash Brother Haoran." Sun Xiaoyi called sister Xiuyao and brother Feng Haoran.

Xiuyao patted him, "Eat obediently."

Sun Xiaoyi despised him, "Rouyuanzi, get over here!"

Liu Zheng smiled while stuffing watermelon into his mouth.

Feng Haoran looked at them with longing, "Your house is so lively."

Xiuyao served him lotus seed soup, "You have more family members, so it should be more lively than ours."

Feng Haoran's expression darkened, he raised his eyes and stared at her, "Yaoyao, I, I want,"

Xiuyao stared at him, "Brother Haoran, what do you want? Isn't it sweet? Do you want to add some sugar? It's better not to eat so much white sugar in hot weather, it will cause phlegm, and eat some rock sugar."

As she spoke, she opened the drawer, took out a box of rock candy, and handed it to him.

Feng Haoran took it, but he didn't know what to say next. He had known her for a long time, and he felt reconciled with her, very harmonious.

Or it should be said that she is sensible and considerate, never embarrassing him, he feels very comfortable with her, peaceful, quiet, warm and refreshing, with a feeling of indescribable joy.

He wanted to say that his mother was going to make an engagement for him, and wanted to ask her what she thought of him. He didn't want to be engaged to another girl, and he liked her.

But in front of him, she never showed the kind of obsessive eyes and expressions that other girls showed him.

Did she not like him?

He asked several younger sisters, and they said that if they liked someone, they would want to see him, and every time they thought of him, they would blush and their hearts would beat. Although they were shy, they still wanted to be with him all the time.

But Xiuyao didn't give him this feeling. She was very happy when he appeared, and she also smiled when he left, never showing any reluctance.

Or... He sighed, his expression was a little gloomy, depressed that he couldn't express himself.

Xiuyao looked at him with concern, "Brother Haoran, what's the matter with you?"

Feng Haoran quickly shook his head and said with a smile: "No, it's nothing, I want to tell you that Gu Ning is coming."

Xiuyao said happily: "Okay, Young Master Ning hasn't been here for a long time. It's been a long time since he sent a letter last time. I heard that he went to the capital and is still working in the river channel of the Ministry of Industry. It's really amazing."
