Chapter 166 Several joys and sorrows

Wanwan looked at Baishou's frowning expression, pursed her lips and smiled, she also said that he didn't understand, it turned out that this person knew everything.

Two days later, Yang Feng went back to Yangjiacun, he didn't even go home, he went to find Baishou first.Baishou told him regretfully: "...the restaurant said it, and everything must be carried out according to the contract..." The implication is that it is impossible for people to join the team again.

Yang Feng was very disappointed.

Later, one day, Wanwan was wandering in the mountains and fields with the child in his arms, and met Shitou Niang.

Wanwan asked her: "... Recently, I heard many people in the market say that the imperial court has increased taxes, and many people's business is in decline. I wonder how the business of Shitou's uncle's family is doing?"

Shitou Niang shook her head: "No, the last time the family went to the market to eat, I took a closer look and saw that there were a lot fewer people shopping, and the worst case was that the money earned in a whole day was not as much as doing manual labor outside. Well, I don’t know that their business is so bleak now?”

"Ah? Really? But didn't he tell Baishou that business was good that day?" Wanwan showed surprise, and Shitou Niang was even more surprised than her.

"What? Is he really looking for you?"

Then he told about Yang Feng's strange behavior a while ago.

First, he went home suddenly and often, and regained the understanding of the two elders, and then invited the two elders and Yang Kaishi's family to the market for dinner.You know, since Yang Feng moved to the market, he has never invited his family to have a serious meal.

Yang Kaishi's heart softened, so he naturally put aside his previous grievances towards Yang Feng, and then Yang Feng took this opportunity to say that the business in the shop is not good, and that life has been very miserable recently. The business is good, but there is not enough money. Finally, he said that he wanted to find Wanwan to join the team to contract the work of "Fusheng Restaurant". Yang Kaishi and his wife had a good relationship with Wanwan. Feng also promised that he would definitely help Yang Kaishi's family in the future.

Ben was still in the sweetness of family affection, and the family just came back to it, which is really chilling.

The two old people didn't say anything, but they lost the intimacy with Yang Feng they had a few days ago, Yang Kaishi and Lingzi flatly rejected the matter.

Wanwan's ability to get this job depends entirely on her own ability, so what's the point of their meddling?Wanwan and his wife are nice to them on weekdays, they insist on buying shares and earning money by taking advantage of their good work, do they have the thick skin?

Yang Feng was very angry, he scolded Yang Kaishi's brother for not doing even such a small favor, Yang Kaishi also turned blue with anger.They thought Yang Feng would just let it go, but how could he have gone to find Wanwan and Baishou by himself.

Shitou Niang felt that her face was burning hot, and felt ashamed facing Wan Wan.

When Yang Feng was making money, even his mother would not be willing to come back to take a look. Now that his business is bleak, he didn't want to reflect on what he owed his parents, but instead thought about using his brother's relationship to help him make money.She was ashamed that Shitou had such an uncle.

Wanwan didn't feel at ease, Yang Kaishi and his wife knew what kind of people they were, and they comforted Shitou Niang for a while.

However, Yang Feng, who was clearly rejected, never came back since then because his good plan didn't work out.

****
Soon the results of the township examination came out, and Li Dazhi was indeed selected as a scholar, and was also favored by Yang Qing, the dean of "Honghui Academy".

Yang Qing, who is in her sixties this year, was born as a Jinshi. Because she hates the darkness of officialdom, she has never had a good time in officialdom in her life.But because he is an upright person, he also knows the Four Books and Five Classics, astronomy and geography, and he is a man of erudition and talent.Today, he was reluctant to give up such a talent, so he gave him a job.Although he doesn't have to face the bloody wind in the imperial court every day, he can see the dirty atmosphere in the officialdom more clearly. Afterwards, he resigned as an official and entered the first academy of the Celestial Dynasty "Tianchao Academy" to teach .

It was not until a few years ago that he retired and returned to his hometown. At that time, "Honghui Academy" was just a small private school. He couldn't bear to see that the students in his hometown didn't even have a better academy, so he joined "Honghui Academy". Many people came here to study, and gradually more and more students in private schools, some wealthy gentlemen donated money, "Honghui Academy" was able to grow as big as it is today, and finally became an academy that is unmatched by several surrounding counties.

It can be said that it is a great fortune to be favored by Yang Qing.

Li Kaiming and Yang Junqi were not selected, but Yang Junqi was lucky enough to be admitted to the "Honghui Academy". Only Li Kaiming was neither selected as a scholar nor entered the academy.

Such a great event, the village was full of joy, and everyone congratulated Li Dazhi with gifts.Baishou also mentioned something to express his heart.

The happiest thing is Dazhi's mother, who can finally straighten her back. Everyone not only praised Li Dazhi for being smart, but also praised Zhi's father and mother for teaching well.Even the village head said that this kind of happy event was the first time in Yangjia Village, so it was necessary to celebrate it.

So on the second day, Da Zhiniang gave wine to treat guests, except for her natal relatives, almost everyone in the village went.There were more flattery and flattery than she had heard in her entire life, and Da Zhiniang's eyes narrowed with a smile.

Dazhi's father and mother laughed all day long, and Li Dashi was also very happy. Whenever someone asked him, he would praise his younger brother with his head high and chest out.

But Li Dazhi himself was much calmer, humble and polite, neither restless nor arrogant.Although the township examination has passed, there is still Chunwei next spring.

Compared with the celebration of the Li family, the other two are different.

Yang Junqi failed to be a scholar but entered "Honghui Academy". With a good place to study like Honghui Academy, with the teacher's careful guidance, and no matter how hard he works, he believes that he will succeed in the future.Even if he can't be a scholar in his life, Qinglai who has a famous teacher will definitely be better than this ordinary person.So Jun Qi Niang was both disappointed and happy.

And Matchmaker Wang became sad.The three of them went together, and the other two gained a lot, only Li Kaiming got nothing. Thinking of her previous pride in the village, she just felt ashamed.

Seeing her son's dejected face again, she couldn't bear to blame her. After sighing three times, she said something to comfort her son.Li Kaiming felt sad and did not go out after resting for several days.

Matchmaker Wang has three children. The eldest daughter married to a neighboring village long ago, and the eldest son set up a stall in the market to sell things.

Li Kaiming is 16 years old this year. He has been well-behaved and sensible since he was a child. He has always been loved by Wang Matchmaker. She feels that she can't let her son be hurt just once, and he has reached the age of marriage. Why not find a good marriage for her son so that He is happy.Make friends first, and wait a year or two before getting married. You can also take this opportunity to find a good wife for the eldest son first.

When choosing a daughter-in-law, you must start first, otherwise the good ones will be picked away.As long as the son has a daughter-in-law, I believe he will work harder. Besides, she also wants to find a girl from Wangfu to give her son good luck, hoping to pass the exam next time.

Discuss with your wife and do it as soon as you say it.Matchmaker Wang began to pay attention to girls who matched her age.Finally, Huangtian paid off and let her find a family.

The surname is Tan, and his elder brother is Tan Tan. He does business in the market. He and Li Kaitai are not on the same street, but they know each other.There are also two younger sisters below. Matchmaker Wang has her eyes on Tan Yun, who is about the same age as Li Kaiming.

Tan Yunren is good-looking, good-natured, hard-working, everyone in the village praises him, and there are quite a few people who have come to kiss him this year.

The younger sister is called Tan Yue. She is the exact opposite of her older sister. She has a bad temper, looks average, and is usually arrogant. Whenever she is mentioned, everyone in the village shakes their heads.

The three of them were from Pingpo, the two old people were planting crops at home, the business in Tan Tan's shop was good, the two sisters would occasionally help out on the street, and the people around the shop knew each other.

Both of them are in business, and Matchmaker Wang thinks this marriage is a good match.So he invited someone to come to say goodbye.The other party didn't agree on the spot, so they quietly inquired about Li Kaiming's situation.Two days later, the other party asked the matchmaker to talk back and forth, which made the matchmaker Wang, who was originally happy, almost smoke from her nostrils.

Before the matchmaker finished speaking, she cursed at the top of her voice on the spot: "...It's a good idea, thinking that there are no girls in the world except his family? And one match? Even if we buy one get one free, our family doesn't want it... "

The two sisters of the Tan family, the most worrying one is Tan Yue, who has not yet reached the age of marriage, and everyone in the village and outside the village has already known their notoriety. The two old people are very worried. They went to the matchmaker Wang to ask someone to come to make a kiss. After a little inquiry, It turns out that the Li family has a pair of brothers, the elder brother is also doing business in the market, the younger brother is a scholar and has a good temper, and Tan Yue has a bad temper, so he just needs to find a good temper, so that the two of them can live happily ever after with each other?
But Tan Yun was begged by others. After much deliberation, the family felt that Li Kaiming's elder brother was already in his twenties and hadn't married yet. There must be some problems, so they wanted to let the eldest daughter Tan Yun marry Li Kaiming's elder brothers, Li Kaitai, Tan Yue, etc. Matching Li Kaiming, it's not just that a brother matches a sister, and a brother matches a sister. Marrying will not mess up the seniority.

But this was a great humiliation to Matchmaker Wang, and it was also a humiliation to Li Kaiming.

The Tan family was also very angry when they heard Matchmaker Wang's words. They wanted to use the elder daughter's advantage to settle the younger daughter's matter at the same time, but they were scolded like this and immediately kicked out the matchmaker.

The good things were not done, and there was a joke, which undoubtedly made Li Kaiming, who failed the ranking, even more depressed. Some people in the village laughed quietly behind his back. Seeing Dazhiniang's beaming appearance every day, Junqiniang also looked proud. The matchmaker was even more upset.

Wanwan thinks that the Tan family is a little whimsical!
After searching for a day, Matchmaker Wang did a divination at the market, and the divination master explained that the Li family was generally doing well.This is true, matchmaker Wang has earned a good income as a matchmaker all year round, and the family has planted land, and Li Kaitai is doing business in the market, so the family's life is naturally better than most people in the village.

However, as mentioned in the hexagram, the Li family's temperament is generally strong, but Li Kaiming's personal general is weaker.

Li Kaiming was not born at full term, so he suffered from many illnesses since he was a child. After the National People's Congress, Wang Matchmaker took good care of him. He took care of Li Kaiming first, and gradually his health improved. After ten years old, Li Kaiming basically I didn't get any disease.

Now when he heard what the hexagram master said, Matchmaker Wang suddenly felt that it made sense, and hurriedly asked how to interpret this hexagram?
The hexagram master stroked his beard, and said something inscrutable: "Strengthen Yang, increase luck and energy."

After receiving the advice from the hexagram master, Matchmaker Wang was very happy, thanked her a lot, and started to do it thinking about the need for materials.

　Thanks to Dieyine for the powder and the sachet, the fragrant sachet......
