I go to the ancient imperial examinations

Chapter 7 The Second Room Calculation
"Father, you're back!" Hearing the voice at the gate of the courtyard, Zhan Feiyu ran over with short legs, and his crisp voice sounded, "Father, I can recite the Three Character Classic the most and most smoothly. It's over!"

He didn't care about the mud on Boss Zhan's body, Zhan Feiyu hugged Boss Zhan's legs, raised his head and grinned, and his big black eyes were full of tenderness asking for praise.

Boss Zhan's cold and stern expression softened, and he even laughed. His big rough hand touched Zhan Feiyu's small head, "Xiaoyu is doing well!"

Zhan Feiyu's smiling eyes were no longer sewed, but Yu Guang glanced to the side, only to see his second uncle unloading the ox cart, without even looking at himself.

"Yo, Xiaoyu is so smart, Erlang, your little sister has been beaten by your sister!" Zhan Laosan, who washed his face with well water in the yard, laughed, patted his son's shoulder, and then picked up Zhan Feiyu Gao Gao, "When Xiaoyu goes to the private school, maybe we will give our old Zhan's family a female talent test and come back!"

Being lifted up by his uncle, Zhan Feiyu looked at his second uncle again, and he did not miss his gloomy expression for a moment.

In the past few days, Zhan's family is concerned about the endorsement progress of the three children. Saburo is wild and impatient. He forgets the front when he carries the back. The second aunt is so angry that she beats Saburo a few times. Although the second uncle didn't say anything What, but his face has always been ugly, Zhan Feiyu has a hunch that the second uncle and second aunt must have another move.

At night, after taking a bath and sitting on the bed, Zhan Feiyu recited the "Three Character Classic" that he learned during the day, and then looked at Mrs. Li who was wiping the mat for himself, "I recite the most, mother, you say I can Are you going to a private school?"

With her back to her daughter, Mrs. Li's movement of wiping the mat froze, and she wiped it a few times quickly, then looked back at her daughter, who was sitting on the stool with her short legs dangling.

Under the dim light of the candle, Zhan Feiyu's hair was loose, and his small face was white and tender. He looked at himself with bright eyes, and he was so cute and cute that Li felt his heart softened.

Li threw the cloth in his hand into the wooden basin, and glanced at Zhan Dalang's study room in the yard through the window paper, his always kind expression became a little cold, "Xiaoyu, even if you win, your second uncle And Second Aunt won't let you go to private school."

Li's personality is gentle, and she doesn't care about arguing with others, but she is not stupid. The second husband and wife are both selfish and calculating, and they say something beautiful, but the benefits are all in her own room, that is, her own man I value this second brother, but I can't see his true face.

It's not that Mr. Li has not been blowing the pillow over the years, but the boss of Zhan is a stubborn bull, and he protects his second brother from the bottom of his heart. Besides, it is usually trivial and trivial. Second Zhan is a talker. Most are also bamboo baskets to draw water.

Hearing his mother's words, Zhan Feiyu's heart sank, and he lowered his head and looked at his chubby hand, muttering unwillingly, "Mother, everyone in the village is talking about the competition, Grandpa is so good, does he want to? Isn't it worth talking? When Er Niu said the competition, they all came to see it."

Zhan Feiyu "deliberately" publicized the competition to his friends before, just to use public opinion to seek a fair and just result. Grandpa has a good face, and so does the second uncle.

"Silly girl, people in the village are talking behind their backs. No one will gossip in front of your master." Mrs. Li touched Zhan Feiyu's head distressedly, and felt suffocated and uncomfortable, but she was patient and warm. sound explanation.

"The private school costs [-] taels of silver per year, and it's not even counting the three festivals a year and the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. Even if your second aunt sacrifices her face, she won't let you go. Your second uncle is shrewd. , when the time comes, your grandparents will definitely be persuaded in the end."

How smart Xiaoyu is, Li's mother knows better than anyone else, but it's a pity that she is a girl.

What Li didn't say is that his man has soft ears and no opinion, but the second child is full of bad water and crooked ideas. In the end, it is the second room who gets the benefit, but this villain is probably still his own man.

Zhan Feiyu's little fat hands clenched tightly. Even if her mother didn't say it, she knew the second uncle's selfish character, but she didn't want to miss the opportunity to go to a private school.

Zhan Feiyu lowered his head and bit his lip, thinking, his father spoiled himself, but he would definitely turn to his second uncle and listen to his opinion on major matters. After all, he was only seven years old, and no elders would care about a yellow-haired girl's words.

As for his mother, Zhan Feiyu raised his eyes and looked at Li Shi's slightly tense face, and couldn't help feeling sour, his little hands held Li Shi's rough hands, and his throat was blocked: "Mother, don't be uncomfortable, wait for me to grow up. It's good to be big."

Li Shiqiang smiled, not wanting to disappoint her daughter, and promised with a smile: "Mother will buy you a pen and paper when the time comes, our little fish is smart, and we can learn to write at home."

"Well, mother, I must be stronger than Dalang Saburo!" Zhan Feiyu rushed over and hugged Mrs. Li, feeling uncomfortable for himself. Mother has been aggrieved all these years and it will only be more uncomfortable, but father always thinks second uncle is good, So the mother can only complain to herself.

Although it is a short thing for parents, but more often it is cutting flesh with a blunt knife. Zhan Feiyu knows that the second room has always been taking advantage of the advantage, and the mother is transparent and shrewd. She is for her father and herself, so she can only open it Close one eye as if you don't know.

When I think of the money that my parents have worked so hard to earn for Dalang to study, if Dalang is diligent and studious, Zhan Feiyu also recognizes it, but Dalang's study is just a waste of money, and maybe there will be another Saburo in the future. Zhan Feiyu closed his eyes to hide the unwillingness and helplessness in his eyes.

On the other side, Xiao Yao shi gave the stubborn little son a lesson, pressed him to endorse behind Da Lang, and returned to the house with anger that did not subside.

"Second, what if Xiaoyu wins?" Xiao Yao asked anxiously after closing the door, wishing he could beat Zhan Feiyu stupid with a hammer, so that no one would be able to take Saburo to school Opportunity.

Zhan's second son just took a shower, and he will lie on the bed and rest with half-squinted eyes. Hearing this, he can't help laughing mockingly, his shrewd face is full of indifference, "What are you in a hurry, this is Saburo's chance, who Can't take it away!"

Zhan's second brother casually opened his eyes, showing disdain and contempt for the big room.

No matter how much people respect Boss Zhan in front of him, he still looks down on the honest and old-fashioned eldest brother Zhan from the bottom of his heart. Although the eldest sister-in-law is shrewd, it is not the eldest house's turn to be in charge of a woman, and it is the eldest brother who decides.

As for Zhan Feiyu's niece, the second Zhan's eyes are a little more disgusted. Fortunately, it is a girl's film. After a few years, she will be swept out of the house after finding a husband's house, and she can still earn a lot of money as a betrothal gift. As for the big house without a son, in this life I can only be a cow and a horse for his second room!
