Chapter 164 Ancestor Yu nephew not Yubo
It was about four or five o'clock in the afternoon when he came out of Li's house. Zhu Ping'an went to the teacher's house to check again, but there was still no one. It seems that the teacher will not come back in a short time.
Autumn is high and airy, the weather is a little hot and dry, and the flowers and plants are a little sluggish in the sun. However, the corresponding crops in the field are growing strong, hanging heavy fruits, facing the sun brightly, and working hard to mature.
Walking on the country road, Zhu Pingan greeted the neighbors in the field from time to time, complimenting the crops in the field with a few words, which made the neighbors happy for a long time.
When I was about to get home, I saw my mother, Mrs. Chen, chatting with a group of aunts and aunts. My mother, Mrs. Chen, was happily talking to the aunts and aunts, and the aunts and aunts were all envious.
"Hey, her aunt, isn't that your Ping'an Lang?" An aunt saw Zhu Ping'an and told Chen.
Then Mrs. Chen turned her head and saw Zhu Pingan, and then waved for Zhu Pingan to come over.
Zhu Ping'an walked over two steps quickly, first called his mother, and then greeted several aunts and aunts around him.
"Hey, tell mother again, what's the use of you as a scorpion, mother can't remember." When Chen spoke, his face was full of pride.
Uh
Mother really enjoys it.
However, since his mother likes it, he must cooperate with all his strength, so Zhu Pingan described the role and privilege of Linsheng in vernacular, and there are some exaggerations in it, but who made his mother Chen Just love to hear it.
"Shouyi's family. You can wait to enjoy the blessings. Your Pingan Lang is so smart, and he will be designated as a high-ranking official in the future." Aunts and aunts expressed their envy for their mother, Chen, and praised Zhu Ping'an's intelligence.
"He's not smart, he just works hard. Every time I get up to cook, I can see him reading and practicing calligraphy in the yard."
Mother Chen said this, but her brows were full of pride in her son.
The mother who didn't really like to chat with aunts and aunts in the past, but these two days always likes to get together in the group of aunts, and then no matter what they talk about, they can always transfer the topic to their second child, and then enjoy everyone's envy, jealousy and hatred . Every time it can open the whole day.
This time too, after enjoying all kinds of envy from everyone, Mrs. Chen reluctantly returned home with Zhu Pingan. On the way, her mother Mrs. Chen never stopped smiling. The whole person was radiant, as if he was ten years younger.
When Zhu Ping'an and his mother returned home, there was no one in the house. His father drove the ox cart back and forth between the town and the mountain village as usual. The eldest brother went into the mountain to prepare for the flowing water feast three days later. Mother Chen began to prepare dinner, while Zhu Ping'an returned to the room and began to copy the books in the Li family's collection borrowed today.
Everything is organized and organized.
The elder brother Zhu Pingchuan who came back first was Jinshan. The elder brother's harvest this time seems to be much bigger than usual, with a basket full of things on his back, and two fat rabbits in his hand.
Father Zhu came back next. After driving the carriage into the house, he took out the meat buns, fruits and other items bought from the town
Dinner was very warm, and the love of family members can be felt everywhere.
It's nice to be at home.
Zhu Ping'an couldn't help but sigh.
Nice to be at home?
Not everyone has a positive opinion. For example, Zhu Shouren, the uncle of Zhu Ping'an who has been traveling around but waited until dark before returning home, doesn't think so, home? How can home compare to the bustling Qinhuai River?
It's better to be Qinhuai River, I'm suave and someone appreciates me; it's not like now. You have to be sneaky when you get home.
As for why he sneaked around, it wasn't because of his nephew. It's the first time to take part in the boy's test, who would have thought that the county test government test would take the test. Not only passed it smoothly, but also won the first place in the very difficult government examination and the even more difficult hospital examination. As for myself, my luck is bad, my fate is too short-lived, and it is another year when I fail the rankings. I have been in school for decades, and took the exam more than ten times, but was preempted by a fledgling boy.
There is nothing outside, and the closer to the village, the more ashamed I feel, so I waited until the sky was dark enough to see clearly before entering the village.
Alas, ancestor You nephew is not You Bo.
Before the exam, I asked a fortune teller to tell my fortune, saying that our old Zhu family ancestors blessed me, and I was sure of it this time, but I didn't expect to be robbed by my nephew. I'll find a Feng Shui master another day, and I always feel that the second child's family is a little obstructing my family and suppressing my luck.
Uncle Zhu Shouren was thinking, while sneaking from the entrance of the village to Zhu's old house.
Fortunately, everyone was eating or resting at home at this time, and there was no one on the street in the village. This allowed the uncle Zhu Shouren to walk to Zhu's old house smoothly.
Zhu Shouren stood in the Zhu family's old house for a long time, brewing up his emotions, and then gently pushed open the door of the Zhu family's old house.
At this time, the Zhu family's old house had already had dinner, and Mr. Zhu was sitting in the courtyard under the starry sky to enjoy the cool. In the past few days, Mr. Zhu has been happy and suffering. The happiness is because his little grandson won the first place in the scholar's examination, and the pain is because his eldest son failed the exam again. In fact, what Mr. Zhu wants most is that his eldest son can go to high school. If he can make the decision, he will definitely transfer the fame of his younger grandson to his eldest son. However, reality is reality, making Mr. Zhu suffer while being happy, and a little disappointed with his eldest son.
Mr. Zhu also misses his elder son very much. His younger grandson has been back for two days. Why hasn't his elder son come back? Nothing happened on the way.
When Mr. Zhu was talking about his eldest son, he found that the door was pushed open and someone walked in.
The figure is somewhat familiar.
Before Mr. Zhu could take a closer look, he saw the figure walking over, groaning, and kneeling on the ground.
"Father, my son is not filial, and he failed the exam again, woo woo, son is not filial. My son left home to prepare for the exam in early February. He got up in the morning to read and studied at night. He never stopped. The county test, the government test, the son does not However, the study has never stopped. During the period, I have given advice to my son many times, so that my son can pass the county examination smoothly. However, the luck is not good, and my son is not healthy. He will not get sick sooner or later, but he is fast. I fell ill during the hospital examination, and my son was also worried that he would not be able to live up to his health and be unable to honor his ancestors, so he taught his son carefully, and his son did not disappoint his son. It's just that the son's luck was not good, and his body was still seriously ill during the exam. what."
The uncle knelt on the ground, holding his grandfather's thigh, crying sadly.
It turned out that Xi'er was able to be admitted to the scholar, thanks to the teaching of his eldest son, no wonder. The faint disappointment that my grandfather had felt towards my uncle just now disappeared after hearing my uncle's sincere words.
"Your son has been back for two days, why did you come?" Grandpa still had a question in his mind.
"To save money, my son hiked for several days, day and night"
The uncle hugged his grandfather's thigh, with snot and bitter tears, speaking very sincerely.
It's not a day and night trip. How long has the eldest son been in the dark? Just to save money and lighten the burden on the family, the grandfather immediately believed the elder son's words. Seeing the elder son who came back at night, he almost burst into tears.
