Chapter 354 Chapter 350

After that, everyone changed the topic and said some happy things, such as Liu Sangui going to school this year.

Liu Dagui and Liu Ergui really don't have the talent for reading, and Liu Erzhuang's family didn't have so much money to support three people to study at the same time.

So at that time, I followed the old boy in the village to get acquainted. I learned some simple characters and could write my own name. At least I would not be cheated when I went out to work or buy things.

And Liu Sangui is more talented than his two older brothers, and was praised several times by Lao Tongsheng.

In addition to the silver taels that Liu Yuer and the others left for Liu Dazhuang before they left, Liu Dazhuang gave most of the money to his younger brother and asked him to send his third nephew to study, so that the old Liu family could still have a scholar.

Even if Guangzong Yaozu, who can't be admitted as a Jinshi in the end, can be a scholar, not only will he not kneel when he sees officials, but he will also be exempted from taxes on the fields in his family. In these ten miles and eight villages, he can be considered a character.

Just like the old Tongsheng in the village, even though he is only a Tongsheng, he is respected more than ordinary people in the village.

The village will ask him to discuss things, and if he asks him to help write letters or teach his children a few words, he will not let him teach for nothing. Basically, he will send some rice noodles or eggs.

Even during the holidays, these students would also bring something to see the enlightenment teacher.

So reading must be beneficial and harmless. If it doesn’t work, it’s better to be an accountant in the county town, which is much better than digging food in the soil.

Especially after the Fang family brothers came, they became more determined to let their children go to school.

The Fang family brothers treat people differently from the people in the village, they know a lot, and they dare to travel thousands of miles to travel.

Although there is a reason for his kung fu, he is still knowledgeable, as long as he has ink in his stomach.

That's what Liu Erzhuang and A Hua thought. The three sons of their family were fine in the village, but they were afraid that they would be cheated when they arrived in the county.

Hearing this, Liu Yu'er's face was also full of joy. She had a good relationship with her three cousins, and she was also happy that her cousin was able to do well.

She thought, before she left, she would leave some silver taels to the second uncle so that he could train the third cousin well, so that he could honor the Liu family in the future.

Along the way, Fang Zhiwu would give her some silver taels every time she passed through the city, and asked her to buy things she liked. Except for some necessities, she basically saved it.

Liu Yu'er didn't know that Fang Zhiwu, who had just come in to fetch water, heard this and was also secretly thinking about how to leave some silver taels for Uncle Liu's house before leaving.

It's really hard to say whether we can come here again in the future, after all, the journey is too far, they are brothers this time, with Qingzhu and Nao Nao, so the journey is smooth and smooth.

In the future, when they want to take the imperial examination, he can't drag his brothers out. It's not safe to bring Liu Yu'er here alone.

This second uncle is the close relative of Yu'er's father and daughter. Even if the father and daughter return to Fangjia Village with them, they will miss this brother, so when they get well, Yu'er and his father-in-law can live in Fangjia Village with peace of mind.

The two of them can be said to want to go together.

But it was because they were too worried, they only thought about the imminent parting, they never thought that there were Xiao Ling and Ying Lao Da Ying Er Er in their Fangjia Village, they were all good at delivering letters.

Tell them the location directly, and then they will send a letter every ten days and a half months, and they will not be able to break contact at all.

It's also been a long time since I saw Xiaoling and them, so I didn't remember them for a while.

Jiayin remembered it, but she didn't know what they were thinking.

At Sishi, the people who came to the banquet arrived one after another.

Set up the tables in the yard and the house respectively. In the yard are men and children, while the elderly and women are eating in the house, accompanying Liu Yuer.

Aunt Liu's Aunt Hua's mother also came. She stayed at Liuer Zhuang before, and just came here with A Hua's father and two older brothers.

A Hua's sister-in-law whispered a few words to her mother-in-law, and the old lady looked at A Yuan's eldest daughter, Fang Fang.

After looking at it without any trace, he retracted his eyes and nodded to Auntie Ahua with a smile.

Sister-in-law A Hua smiled, and the two sat next to A Yuan's wife and daughter.

A Hua's second sister-in-law was also smiling beside her. She had seen what the elder sister-in-law was thinking before, and winked at A Hua who was next to her.

Ah Hua couldn't help but pursed her lips and laughed, Fang Fang was also considered to be the one she watched growing up, this girl was simple-minded, quick-working, and eloquent, her personality followed Ah Yuan's daughter-in-law, which was very pleasing.

Such a woman is also quite suitable for her natal nephew.

The eldest nephew of my natal family did not come to the banquet this time, mainly because he was an apprentice at the blacksmith shop in the county. There were a batch of iron tools to be made in the shop, and the master would not let anyone go, and he did not dare to miss work at will.

When Liu Dazhuang and the others went shopping in the county, they went to his shop and told him about today's banquet. He said that he would come to see his cousin and cousin-in-law in the evening.

After my cousin is going to marry far away, I don't know if I will see it or not, so I must come back and have a look.

The village chief's family came. The village chief and his eldest son, daughter-in-law, eldest grandson, second son and second daughter-in-law's family opened a shop in the county and did not come.

After all, closing a shop for one day will waste a lot of money, so there is no need to delay business just for a banquet.

Today is a happy event, and the brothers from the Fang family are outside to meet people, so it seems that they are not in the pool, and the village chief will also check the occasion, picking up nice words throughout the whole process, and the atmosphere of the banquet is very lively.

On the contrary, the eldest daughter-in-law of the village head's family took a few glances at Fang Zhiwen outside, and asked A'hua in a low voice: "From Er Zhuang's family, is Zhiwen from Fang's family married?"

Ah Hua knew what she meant as soon as she heard it. The eldest daughter-in-law of the village head's family has a younger sister, and she hasn't mentioned her yet.

But Ah Hua felt that her little sister was not good enough for Fang Zhiwen, and Fang Zhiwen was the best educated among the Fang brothers.

Not to mention the most gentle speech, he takes the lead in everything, which shows that everyone is headed by him.

How can such a person be worthy of a village girl?

It's not that she underestimated the village girl, but that the little sister of the village head's daughter-in-law is not as good as a village girl, at least a village girl like Fang Fang can speak well and be capable.

Her little sister is considered outstanding in appearance, but her temperament is famous in the village for her aggressiveness, and she is almost out of laziness.

I heard that I don’t do anything at home, and I always eat first at the table, and the first one off the table after eating, and I don’t even hold the oil bottle upside down.

And he has a bad temper, not to mention grabbing food with his little nephews, and often beating and scolding those little nephews and nieces, which makes the brothers and sisters-in-law in the family not want to see them.

That is to say, her parents dote on her, as long as her parents are gone, the first one will be kicked out.

Let alone Fang Zhiwen, she would not even want such a person to be worthy of her family, no matter how much dowry was paid, it would be a shame for such a daughter-in-law to marry back.

So she said directly: "I heard that there is already a promising girl in the family, and they will get married just waiting to go back."

As he spoke, he winked at Jiayin, fearing that she would tear things apart.

After Jiayin said this, she glanced at Second Aunt Liu and then at the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family.

Looking at her shrewd face, narrow brows, high cheekbones and roving eyes, one can tell that this person is a bit treacherous.

It seemed that the woman she wanted to introduce to brother Zhiwen was not a good woman, so Second Aunt Liu refused directly.

She didn't interrupt, and just listened quietly by the side.

Then I heard the eldest daughter-in-law of the village chief's family say: "What about the other ones? The younger generations of the Fang family are all good."

It's not good for Second Aunt Liu to reject them all. After all, she is not a senior. If she says she has a partner, if the Fang family brothers leak their words later, it will not be very good. After all, their family still lives in the village.

So she looked at Jiayin, and Jiayin immediately understood and said: "Sister-in-law just ask me. After all, Second Aunt Liu is not very familiar with my brothers, and my brothers now have marriage partners."

As he spoke, he pulled Yang Huiyun who was next to him and said happily: "This is my brother Zhiqiang's fiancée, and sister Yu'er, we are going to have a wedding together when we go back this time."

When the eldest daughter-in-law of the village head's family heard this, she stopped talking embarrassingly.

She didn't think that Jiayin lied to her, after all, the little girl didn't know who the woman she was going to talk about was.

When A'hua refused just now, she still had some thoughts. After all, A'hua is from a village, so she might know what she was thinking, but the other girl didn't, so Jiayin's words were more believable.

Everyone had a lively lunch, helped clean up the yard, and took their tables, chairs and benches home.

The Liu family became much quieter all of a sudden, Ahua Niang's family did not leave, they were still chatting in the house.Their plan is to wait until Ahua's nephew comes over for dinner in the evening before going back together.

Ah Hua's idea is to let them stay for one night before leaving tomorrow. The road there is not easy to walk, and she is not at ease going back at night.

However, her natal family knew that there were too many of them, and Liu Erzhuang couldn't live there, so they insisted on going home. Finally, Fang Zhiwu volunteered to drive them off at night, and then it was settled.

At the time of You, Zhang Jiaxing, the eldest nephew who was an apprentice in the blacksmith shop in the county town, came over.

Although Zhang Jiaxing is not too tall, he can only be regarded as medium in the local area. He is more than half a head shorter than the brothers of the Fang family, but he is very strong. It may be because he was in the blacksmith shop. His upper body is full of bumps.

It should be facing the stove all the year round, his face is a bit dark, but his facial features are well-rounded, and his eyes are also bright, he doesn't look like that kind of dull person.

Jiayin looked at it and nodded, thinking that she was a good match for that Fangfang.

And she found that the two people still have some couple photos. Although Jiayin doesn't know how to help people check their marriage, she can also see that the two people are very compatible, just like Fang Zhiqiang and Yang Huiyun back then.

When Liu Yuer and Fang Zhiwu got engaged before, Zhang Jiaxing came here. At that time, the two brothers of the Jiuliu family had a meal with the Zhang family, and they didn’t invite the villagers. They just made a big fanfare for the villagers to see when they sent the betrothal gifts. That's all.

So Zhang Jiaxing was no stranger to them, and soon chatted with the Fang brothers.

They prepared a lot of things, and the meal at night was no worse than the one at noon, and there were even more delicacies.

It is the bamboo shoots and mushrooms they dug on the mountain before, and it tastes very good when stewed with pheasant.

Because the quantity is not very large, I didn't make this dish at noon.

After dinner in the evening, everyone chatted for a while, and before it was too late, the Zhang family was about to leave.

Fang Zhiwu went to set up a donkey cart. There are many mountain roads to Shigou Village, and horse-drawn carts are not suitable for him. Nao Nao is better at mountain roads.

Jiayin took out a basket of fruit from the car, actually a storage bag, and the lantern they bought at the stall in the Inca country.

It is an oil lamp covered by a glass cover, which can also be replaced with a candle, but if it is hung in front of the car, the candle is easy to break if it shakes left and right inside, so it is worse than an oil lamp.

After it was lit, it was covered with a glass cover, and everyone looked at it in amazement for a long time.

This is much brighter and smaller than a lantern, and the fire is not easy to extinguish.

The wick protruded from a bottle, and the oil in the bottle was not easy to spill, unlike the oil lamps they light in the house, and they had to be careful when holding them.

"This lamp is really nice."

Yes, what material is the outside made of?It is actually transparent, and everything inside is clearly visible..."

Seeing them boasting about the lights, Jiayin took out two more lamps from the car, and the family gave one for them to use at home.

The two families refused for a while, and said: "This is too expensive, we dare not take it."

The brothers of the Fang family helped Jiayin persuade: "This thing is not worth much, it's just a rarity, it's just not available here, and many people in Hainan County use this."

Cheap is really not cheap. It costs two taels of silver to buy this lamp, which is enough for a family to spend for two months.

Of course they would not say the price, so that the two families would not dare to accept it.

After refusing for a while, they accepted it, and thanked them with some embarrassment.

Jiayin waved her hand and said, "They're all from my family, why are you being polite? We bought a lot of these gadgets just to give them away."

Everyone was amused by her generous appearance.

The two parties said goodbye, and the Zhang family got into the donkey cart and left.

Fang Zhiwu didn't go directly to Shigou Village, but sent Zhang Jiaxing back to the county to save him from walking at night alone.

Although as a strong and strong man, the road to the county seat is not far away, and he is unlikely to be in danger, but anyway, it is better to send it directly, and it is more assured.

Send Zhang Jiaxing to the gate of the county seat, watch him enter the city, and then drive the Zhang family back to Shigou Village.

When Fang Zhiwu came back, it was already Xu time, and Liu Erzhuang and his family had already gone back.

Liu Yu'er fetched water for Fang Zhiwu, asked him to wash up, and went back to sleep.

After a busy day, I was also quite tired.

They got up early the next morning, and today they will start to pack their things, pack all the things they want to take away, and put the unnecessary things in the house directly, and just give Liu Erzhuang the key when the time comes.

It just so happened that his three sons were growing up gradually, and they could stay here after they got married, saving the entire family from being crammed into those two rooms.

They planned to leave tomorrow, pack up today and rest for another day, after all, they just finished the banquet yesterday.

The three brothers of the Liu family came over early in the morning. First, they practiced sword skills with Fang Zhiwu and the others. Of course, they used wooden sticks instead.

In fact, it would be better to teach them boxing techniques. After all, knives are controlled by the government, but there is no way. The Fang brothers only learned the knives.
