Lay to win!Cannon fodder, he has become the chief assistant

Chapter 12 Xie Xiuwen's Lucky Love

Dr. Xie prescribed some medicine, and then gave some precautions before going back.

Coming out of the small courtyard, Dr. Xie saw a handkerchief falling off the clothesline, and noticed that it was an ordinary dishcloth, so he picked it up and put it on the air again.

It's just that Dr. Xie seemed to smell a trace of medicine, but when the wind blew, and he sniffed again, the smell seemed to disappear.

Dr. Xie shook his head, thinking that he was thinking too much.

Xie Xiuwen and Xie Rongzhao, the father and daughter, had enough food and drink, went to a cloth shop to buy some cloth, and then came back by ox cart.

Xie Rongrong had a rash and couldn't see the wind, and it didn't cause much reaction at home. After all, it wasn't a serious illness, and it would be fine if she was locked up in the house for a few days.

Xie Xiuwen returned to the town and continued to be a teacher, so he had to finish this month first.

After selling Gastrodia elata money, Xie Xiuwen and his daughter discussed it, and left five taels to his wife for emergencies, while Xie Rongzhao, a great hero, got ten taels of pocket money.

"This color is really pretty, and Auntie's craftsmanship is also good. Dad must look good in it."

Liu Ruolan smiled softly: "Your father said it was thanks to you for digging up the medicinal materials, otherwise he would have to go out and borrow money."

Xie Rongzhao frowned: "Why do you want to borrow it? Didn't Dad say that he would pay for it when he was studying?"

Liu Ruolan's smile disappeared, and she sighed, "Your grandma will definitely pay for the necessary money, but there will be no more money."

Xie Rongzhao was stunned, the necessary money?
This is not easy to define. Does it mean that tuition and pen and ink are necessary?

Then Dad wants to buy books, or wants to go to the great Confucianism to ask for advice, etc., so he has no money?

"Don't be afraid, when Dad comes back next time, we will go up the mountain to dig treasures together."

Liu Ruolan smiled lightly, her daughter is sensible, so she is naturally happy, but thinking that her husband has gone to the academy, I am afraid that life will be quite difficult.

Xie Rongzhao also knows that studying costs money. Just pens, inks, papers and inkstones are not something ordinary people can afford. In addition, scholars are always eager to get advice from famous teachers. If they don't have money, how can they make connections?Do you come to the door empty-handed to ask for advice?
I heard that there will be some literary and poetry conferences, so of course we can't eat and drink for nothing!

Sure enough, their family of three was still too poor.

In fact, Xie Rongzhao didn't understand either, why grandma didn't want to let daddy spend money even though grandma had money?If dad can pass the Juren examination, then the whole family will be honored!

Xie Rongzhao recalled that book carefully, but it didn't seem to be written in it. Is it just because Grandma doesn't like Grandpa?
At this time, Xie Xiuwen was invited to a classmate's home for a drink. After drinking for three rounds, he understood what Liu Xueyi meant.

"Thank you Brother Liu for your concern. It's just that I already have a wife at home, and my younger brother only wants to concentrate on studying now. Don't mention other things."

Liu Xueyi was stunned for a moment. He knew about Xie Xiuwen's situation. Although he was selected as a scholar, his family background was average and he was not favored at home, so he was moved when he heard his mother's suggestion.

He thought that just because of his cousin's family background, Xie Xiuwen would agree.

Unexpectedly, Xie Xiuwen refused.

Liu Xueyi's cousin is nineteen years old this year, and she has been delayed to this age because she is a filial piety for the elders in the family. Because the family is a merchant, the dowry will naturally be rich, and the merchant is looked down upon by others, so she became a concubine of a scholar. thoughts.

Liu Xueyi himself was not selected as a scholar, but his family has a lot of property, and now he has given up delusions of studying, and only focuses on taking care of the family property.

Liu Xueyi is optimistic about Xie Xiuwen, after all, he is talented that several teachers have praised, so when he learned that his cousin was interested in Xie Xiuwen, he was naturally willing to go along with it. I went to a rich relative.

"Forget it, Brother Wei originally heard that you had no children, so he came up with this idea. Since Zi Cheng has no intention, Brother Wei will not force it."

Zicheng is Xie Xiuwen's character, which was given by their common husband.

When Liu Xueyi mentioned that cousin, Xie Xiuwen really thought about it for a moment. After all, he is now short of money and will go to the academy next month, but there is still a lot of money.

However, it was only for a moment, Xie Xiuwen still kept his heart, unwilling to use such a cheap method to achieve his wish.

He is very clear that he likes his wife, and he is not greedy in beauty, if he really accepts such a concubine and goes back...

Xie Xiuwen suddenly thought of his darling, and he felt uncomfortable at the thought of possibly wronging his little darling.

After Xie Xiuwen left Liu Xueyi, he began to worry about how to save some money quickly.

Now in Gaoyang County, he can be regarded as having some contacts. If he goes to Fucheng, it will be even more difficult for him to earn money.

After all, a scholar can still attract attention in Gaoyang County, but in Fucheng, he is nothing!

Xie Xiuwen now has a total of 30 taels of silver in his hands, which seems like a lot, but he knows very well that it will be costly.

But when he was having a headache about money, he didn't know that Xie Laosan and Xie Rongzhao, uncles and nephews, were staring at each other on the mountain.

"Third uncle, let's sell it and divide the money equally, how about it?"

Xie Laosan was happy: "Zhao Zhao, this is your luck. I have come to the mountain so many times, and this is the first time I have encountered such a thing like a pie in the world. Uncle can help you sell it, so I won't let you go." I'll share your money, but you don't want to say anything about Uncle hunting something on the mountain, okay?"

Xie Laosan still had two pheasants in his hand. Since he wanted to help his niece sell the prey, he might as well sell them together.

Xie Rongzhao nodded: "Then we have to find a way to go out of the village and find Dad. Dad knows a lot of people, so I'm sure we can sell it for a good price!"

Xie Lao San lowered his head and glanced at the red-haired fox that had been smashed to death by the stone, and couldn't help but lament the girl's good luck.

It was just a detour. Of course, Xie Lao San couldn't be bothered. They put the prey in the back basket, and then took Xie Rongzhao to detour from the mountain together.

In this way, they are equivalent to walking the small road outside the village, covering up the baskets on their backs, even if they meet villagers, they can still pass by perfunctorily.

As long as it's not seen by their old lady.

Xie Rongzhao was young, and hadn't reached the entrance of the village yet, so he couldn't walk anymore.

Fortunately, I met the ox cart of the patriarch's family and was going to the town, so we just went together.

Xie Xiuwen had just finished class here, and when he saw the things in Xie Laosan's back basket, his eyes were straightened.

"You said it was a stone that fell from the mountain that killed the fox?"

"Yeah!" Xie Rongzhao nodded emphatically, "It's such a big rock, and it hits it quite accurately."

Xie Xiuwen had an unbelievable expression on his face, isn't his daughter's luck too good?
