PS: I have seen everyone's reminders.In the past few days, relatives have come, the study room has been converted into a guest room, and the desktop and laptop are occupied by relatives’ children to play games, and I have to cook and play with them all day long. It's almost bottomed out, and there is really no way to add more.Fortunately, relatives left this afternoon.Let me code the draft for a few days and then update it.

Thank you Huajiang, Tea in the Evening, xulj_2002, Fengchong Segong, Ziyu Baby, Cappuccino Pink Pig, Tu_Ling for your rewards, okay~

Zhang Hongwen frowned: "Female households can be exempted from labor and tax cuts. The investigation is very tight, and it is not easy to accommodate. If it is found out, my father will go to jail at least, or lose his head at worst."

"Ah, sorry, I don't know." Du Jinning smiled shyly.She really doesn't know these things, it seems that she needs to look for the law books of this era.

"You are young, and no one has told you these things. It's normal not to know." Zhang Hongwen waved his hand, not blaming Du Jinning.

"Hey, what should we do? You know the situation of our family. If we don't separate out, life will be bad. I'm afraid my sisters will be ruined." Du Jinning sighed and looked at Zhang Hongwen With a glance, he asked again, "What about changing my age? Is it not easy to change my age by two years?"

Zhang Hongwen was also very sympathetic to Du Jinning.He didn't have much contact with Du Jinning before, and he was just a timid and silent thin child in his impression.These two encounters changed his view of Du Jinning greatly. Du Jinning's intelligence really made him admire, and he also regretted that he couldn't study with Du Jinning's qualifications.

So if he can help Du Jinning without harming his father's interests, he is naturally willing to extend his hand.

Zhang Hongwen thought for a while and reminded: "You have to know that once you change your age and establish a household, you will have to serve corvee service. According to the ancestral precept of not dividing the family, if you divide it out, the Du family’s second room’s field can only be rented out. At that time, part of the grain will be distributed to others. I’m afraid your grandmother will not agree to this. Otherwise, they For your suspicion, why not assign your room early?"

It seems that Niu's reputation for being stingy is known to everyone in the village, even Zhang Hongwen, who only reads sage books, has heard of it.

"The age will be changed after the family is separated." Du Jinning said.

Zhang Hongwen frowned: "I have to go back and ask my father about this. You also know that if the age is lowered, even if it is lowered by one or two years, the exemption fee can be reduced. Therefore, for the age change, the Courts are not allowed. But I don’t know if this is as strict as the investigation of the establishment of female households. After all, changing the age to a younger age will also cost money, but the savings in exemption from service are not much, and if If someone files a lawsuit, the punishment will only be more severe, and the loss outweighs the gain. If there are not many such cases, the investigation may not be so strict."

Du Jinning stood up, and bowed to Zhang Hongwen in a dignified way: "In this way, there will be Brother Lao Zhang."

Zhang Hongwen hurriedly avoided, waved his hands and said, "You don't have to be so polite, I didn't do anything for you."

The two sat down again, and Du Jinning changed the subject: "Do you know that young master Guan Qi?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Hongwen became much more relaxed, and said with a smile, "I know him, but he doesn't know me. His name is Guan Jiaze, and he is the nephew of our academy headmaster. He is only one year older than me, but he has already graduated from A He is in class, his grades are very good, and his name is included in the top ten every time. I heard that he will be able to give it a try next year. With his ability, it is not difficult to be a scholar."

"Class A? How many classes are you divided into? How many people are in each class?" Du Jinning asked curiously.

"There are four classes, A, B, C, and D. The number of people in each class is different. Class A has the smallest number of students, with only 28 students; Class B has 35 students, and Class C has 56 students. Class D has the largest number of students, with [-] students. "

"Brother Zhang, which class are you in?"

The corner of Zhang Hongwen's mouth twitched, and there was a hint of complacency on his face: "I just entered last year. After passing the exam, I entered Class C directly. I was promoted to Class B in August this year."

"Wow, Brother Zhang, you are really good." Du Jinning did not hesitate to praise him.

Zhang Hongwen blushed, a little embarrassed, and quickly changed the topic: "What did you ask Guan Jiaze for?"

"The last time I bought a script, didn't he say that I would go to him when I got a new script? Although I haven't finished writing it, I have an idea in my mind, and I can start writing today. I plan to find him after I finish writing. It's just that I saw you leave early and return late, and I think that young master Guan Qi is also like this. So ask him about his situation."

When Zhang Hongwen heard this, he enthusiastically offered an idea: "We have a bath once every ten days. We usually go out early and return late, and we rarely stay at home. You can go to the academy to find him. He is very famous in the academy. As long as you don't have classes, just ask him. You can find him. Although our academy cannot come in and out at will, but calling him out will not be a problem."

Du Jinning nodded.

Zhang Hongwen came here to talk to Du Jinning and get acquainted.It was getting late at this time, so I said goodbye and went home.

During this period, Du Chensheng, who was sitting in the room reading, didn't read a single page of the book.

Now that Du Jinning is showing her talents, even the young master of the Li Chang's family has come to make friends with her. It can be seen that if she wants to suppress her in the future, she may not be able to do so.

He sighed, looking at the thin figure who sent Zhang Hongwen back, he didn't move for a long time.

After a long time, he said to Niu Shi who was sitting in the room with the insole on: "Go and call Ning Geer."

"Huh?" Niu's eyes widened.

Apart from beating and scolding, they never took the initiative to talk to Du Jinning, for fear of being overwhelmed by her.Why is the old man acting so uncharacteristically now?
Du Chensheng was in a bad mood, and looked down on Niu Shi's stupid appearance very much, his eyes glared: "If you tell you to go, go."

"Oh." Being stared at by Du Chensheng, Niu habitually obeyed.She put down the insole, got up and went out.It wasn't until he walked into the yard that he realized that he shouldn't be messing around with the old man, he should have stopped him.

But she had already come here, and she didn't bother to turn back, so as not to make another trip.She patted Du Jinning's door vigorously, and said fiercely: "Didn't you say that you were bored? Why did he close the door as soon as he left? Damn you, you are not old, you have a big heart, and you know how to give up all day long." This old lady is tricky, she should have drowned you back then..."

"Old woman!" Du Chensheng roared angrily from the other end, "I told you to let her come over, what are you talking about?"

When Niu's words were interrupted, she was annoyed, but she didn't dare to say anything else, she just felt that the old man was acting weird today, and she didn't know if he had taken the wrong medicine, so she just stared at Du Jinning and said, "Your grandfather told you to come over."

Niu's mouth is like a cesspit, and he can never utter good words. Du Jinning has long been used to it, and he just listens to it, never bothering to listen to her scolding.

Hearing Du Chensheng call her, she stood up expressionlessly, and walked to the main room of Du's house, wondering what Du Chensheng wanted her to do in the past.

But she guessed it shouldn't be a bad thing, otherwise Du Chensheng wouldn't have interrupted Niu's words just now.In the past, no matter how vicious Niu's scolding was, Du Chensheng always turned a deaf ear to it and never stopped him, but today it is uncharacteristically.

As soon as the main room is entered, it is the main room, on which there is an Eight Immortals table, and there are several armchairs beside the table.In the innermost part is a long table with a large porcelain vase on it; on the right hand, you can enter Du Chensheng's study room. The furnishings inside are very neat. The antique look shows that the second bedroom of Du's family has quite a bit of family background and heritage.

Seeing this, instead of being envious, Du Jinning's eyes flashed a hint of ridicule.

"Grandfather, did you call me?" she asked calmly.

Du Chensheng has been looking at Du Jinning since she entered the room.At this time, he had to admit that this child who he had never looked at directly and hated from the bottom of his heart was a dragon and a phoenix among people.
