Dressed as a mother-in-law, she leads the whole family to turn over

Chapter 79 Yang Santie’s Ambition
  Jiang Ning pinched Yang Santie's ears with hatred, "Are you short-sighted? How many people want to go to school but can't get past the threshold. Now that the family has some money for you to study, you still dislike it! You don't want to do anything if you don't study. What? Live like your father? Or throw food in the fields for the rest of your life?"

"Hiss! It hurts, grandma, please stop pulling me!" Yang Santie was in pain, and his whole face was distorted.

Jiang Ning let go angrily.

Yang Santie quickly hid behind Yang Erdan and said aggrievedly: "I don't want to be a gangster like dad, and I don't want to throw food into the ground. I want to make money, make big money!"

Jiang Ning laughed sarcastically, "I still want to make a lot of money if I don't have the ability. I'm just daydreaming!"

"My mother-in-law can exchange thousands of copper coins for a trip to the mountains. Why can't I and my mother-in-law go to the mountains? As long as I work harder, I can save thousands of copper coins in a month, or dozens of taels in a year. Isn't it better than studying? Studying is a waste of money, and you may not be able to get ahead. Why should I do those thankless things? I want to follow my mother into the mountains!" Yang Santie expressed his thoughts so frankly for the first time. .

Jiang Ning was slightly startled, and looked at him with a complicated expression, "You said that my mother-in-law can earn thousands of yuan just by going to the mountains. How did she get this money? The mountains are there, and anyone can go in, so why can others earn I can do it for less than the money, have you thought about this problem?"

"Of course A-Niang is great. A-Niang is smart. She not only knows mushrooms but also herbs and can cook a lot of dishes. Many shopkeepers in the town praise A-Niang for her skills!" Yang Santie took it for granted.

Jiang Ning sneered, "What do you have compared to me? How do you stand out compared to the people in the village? Just because you are my son, I have to take you with me to make a fortune every time I go into the mountains?"
  Do you know what’s going on in the mountains? You have to bear certain risks every time you go in. If you don't encounter danger, you are lucky. If you encounter danger, your life will most likely be in danger. The money you make may not be enough to save lives. What are you doing?
  Furthermore, there are a lot of things in the mountains, but can you go into the mountains all year round to ask for food? No way! Some things depend on the season. Do you think you can always make money? Why are you so naive! "

As he spoke, Jiang Ning looked at Yang Erdan, "Erdan, tell Santie about the benefits of studying."

Yang Erdan raised his head and took a deep look at Yang Santie, and said solemnly: "There are no scholars in our village. As long as you can read, all the villagers will respect you. Even if we lose our father, no one will laugh at us behind our backs.

If anything happens in the village, our family will be the first to be considered. If you have the ability to pass the Tongsheng exam, you will be the Tongsheng master. There are only five or six scholars in our county, and there are not many Tongsheng. Once you become a Tongsheng, you can find a way to work in the Yamen. If you are good at accounting, you can work as a bookkeeper in a town or county. You can make money even by writing letters or couplets.

If we are lucky enough to come back as a scholar, our land will be exempted from taxes, and the government will give us money every year. Even if there is a natural disaster, we will not be afraid of starving to death. "

Yang Santie, brother and sister, were all dumbfounded. Before Yang Santie could react, Yang Xiaoya had already spoken, "Second brother, can I go to school?"

Yang Erdan shook his head regretfully, "Women cannot enter the school, only men can go."

Yang Xiaoya was so disappointed that she turned to look at Yang Sizhuang next to her, "Fourth brother, go to school and try your best and study hard. Our family's good life depends on you!"

Eight-year-old Yang Sizhuang suddenly broke into a cold sweat on his forehead, "Why are you counting on me! Isn't there a third brother?"

Yang Xiaoya glanced at Yang Santie disapprovingly, "Forget it! It's no problem to let the third brother go up the tree and dig out bird eggs. I'm tired of pointing him to sit obediently in the school and study!"

"Hey! You damn girl, who are you looking down on! If Third Brother doesn't let you pass the exam and come back as a scholar, you will really look down on you! I'll go!" Yang Santie said this with a fierce voice, almost gritting his teeth. .

Jiang Ning and Yang Erdan looked at each other and smiled, then quickly calmed down. Yang Erdan said: "Mom, my uncle and I are going to Gaojiazhuang tomorrow to build a house for Gao Datou. Then I will find out which scholar in our county is better."

"Sure!" Jiang Ning saw that Yang Erdan had so many ideas now and was happy to leave the matter to him. "If you find out more about it, tell me. I have to go to Songxi Town and tell your brother about this." Sister-in-law, tell me."

It happened that during this time, there were several sacks of mushrooms at home, which she had worked hard to collect. The shopkeeper Jin of Dashan Inn was a pretty good person, and some mountain products were difficult to send to Songxi Town, so they could only be sold to him, so even if the price here It was a little lower, but Jiang Ning still left a lot of mushrooms for Shopkeeper Jin.

The rest will all be sent to Linjiang Inn.

Early the next morning, the three Yang Erdan brothers got up before dawn, and the mother and son carried a bunch of things to the river ditch. The late autumn morning was full of dew, and there was even a thin layer of frost on the mountains. It looked like it would be over again in a few days. The temperature is about to drop, and after the fifteenth day of the twelfth lunar month, it will most likely snow here.

She had to stock up on more ingredients before it started snowing.

Pretending to be worried, Jiang Ning didn't care to look at his surroundings. When he reached the river ditch, Yang Erdan took out the bamboo raft and carried Jiang Ning to the Wei River.

There was still a layer of thick fog on the river. Yang Erdan shouted a few times before the fishing boat approached. After getting Jiang Ning and the goods on board, Yang Erdan followed for a while before leaving.

I don't know when the sky was filled with glowing light, and the sun penetrated the thick fog and reflected on the river. After a while, the fog gradually dispersed, and the fishing boats hiding in the thick fog were also revealed, and shouts and laughter could be heard endlessly.

After the fishing boat arrived at Songxi Town, the boatman helped get the things ashore. Jiang Ning quickly hired two men who worked at the dock to take the Songxi to Linjiang Inn.

When the shopkeeper saw her, she asked the waiter to collect the items and pay her without saying a word, without even inspecting them.

Jiang Ning looked at the bag of copper coins and raised his eyebrows, "Shopkeeper Hua, won't you check carefully?"

"Ouch! We have been cooperating for so long, why are we even checking on you! I can trust you!" Shopkeeper Hua said this very well. The main reason is of course not that he trusts Jiang Ning, but that the only master who makes big dishes here is Yang. Datou, Jiang Ning can't cheat his own son.

Jiang Ning smiled, took the money bag, went around to the kitchen to find Yang Datou, and told him what happened in the village during this period.

Yang Datou was very surprised that the couple reconciled, "What about the big girl and the rich girl?"

Jiang Ning lowered his eyes and said: "Isn't there still a father? What's more, your grandpa and grandma can't just watch the second wife's life being miserable. I just want to tell you, you have the confidence in your own heart. Grandma has thought about it. You Now that you are married and have your own family, you and Ye Zi will save the money you earn from now on, and you don’t have to give it to me."

"Aniang!" Yang Datou was so shocked that he forgot to turn the spatula in his hand.
