Chapter 64

"Brother, it's alright, stand up and let Dong'er take a look."

Shen Wenxuan smiled, his eyes became more gentle, following Shen Lidong's intention, he just stood in front of the desk.

Shen Lidong took a few steps back, raised his head, and looked at Shen Wenxuan carefully.

I have known for a long time that my elder brother Shen Wenxuan is good-looking, this is set off against his new robe upper body, matched with the jade hairpin on the black hair, it further shows his jade-like temperament, which is extremely brilliant, not inferior to Xie Chaoyun. What about Peach Boy?

How should I put it, in terms of appearance, Xie Chaoyun is naturally better, but there is something called temperament in this world, which is indescribable.

Her eldest brother, Shen Wenxuan, has such a charming temperament that attracts people's attention.

Fengshen is jade-like, with a face like a crown of jade, and when the breeze blows, it gently pats the sleeves of the clothes, astonishing.

"Brother is so pretty." Shen Lidong looked at it, and then laughed, this smile was a little silly.

From now on, I don't know which little lady is cheaper?
But it's strange to say, why didn't a matchmaker come to propose marriage to someone as outstanding as her elder brother?You must know that Zhang Dazhuang next door got engaged at the age of 12, and her elder brother is already fifteen, why no one came to snatch her?

Shen Lidong secretly lamented that those girls really have no vision, if it was her, she must have made an early move, grabbing them and then cultivating them well.Shen Lidong despises those women who have no vision, and dares to despise her big brother who is as bright as a moon and a breeze, it is really hateful and annoying, but after thinking about it, she is quite thankful that those women have no vision, if she randomly assigns one, she It would be a pity for such a handsome and outstanding character as Brother Jia.

Well, she should talk to her mother carefully, and then choose a good sister-in-law for her elder brother, but not everyone can use it to match his elder brother.

In such a short period of time, Shen Lidong's thinking spread so widely that he didn't know where the crooked building was.

"You little girl, what are you thinking about?" Shen Wenxuan looked at Shen Lidong with eyes that were clearly thinking.

"It's nothing, I just think it's so nice to look at big brother." Shen Lidong blinked playfully, then turned and left the study.

"You weird girl, she's acting weird, and I don't know what's going on in her head." Shen Wenxuan smiled and looked at Shen Lidong's back bouncing away, shaking his head helplessly.

Naturally, Shen Lixia prepared the breakfast. Mrs. Chen fed the chickens early in the morning, cleaned the yard, chopped up the pitcher plants and fed them to the fat pigs, and took the clothes of the whole family to the river and washed them back.

After finishing all this work, Shen Lixia had already prepared breakfast and got up for Shen Wenhai. Shen Boyuan and Shen Wenhao also got up early to practice boxing. At this time, breakfast was already on the table. The family cleaned up and started Had breakfast.

Drinking warm white rice porridge, served with pickled crispy dried radish, sour spicy cabbage, and eating scallion white noodle pancakes, the whole family is smiling.

During this period of time, the second room of the Shen family has lived the most comfortable life, clean and peaceful, busy and happy, Shen Lidong looked at the happy smiles on the family dinner table, thinking that if the life continues like this, it will be too much. alright.

After breakfast, the family sent Shen Wenxuan to the entrance of the village. There were already a few students waiting for reference at the entrance of the village, and relatives also came to see him off.

Mrs. Chen took out the peace talisman she asked for from Qingliang Temple last time, and put it on Shen Wenxuan carefully. Shen Lixia took out a big red backgammon knot and handed it to Shen Wenxuan. Seeing elder brother Shen Wenxuan everything is going well.

Shen Lidong's gift had already been sent out, Chen Shi looked at the brand new jasper hairpin on Shen Wenxuan's ink-like hair, smiled and glanced at Shen Lidong, but said nothing.

After sending Shen Wenxuan away to take the first exam, the second room of the Shen family returned home, and Shen Boyuan went to the ground with a hoe. Shen Wenhao took Shen Wenhai to review and practice Chinese characters in the study room, and Zhang Dazhuang next door was busy cutting wood to make For the mop pole, Aunt Zhang brought Xing'er to learn how to weave Chinese knots with Shen Lixia, because Mrs. Chen listened to Shen Lidong's suggestion and gave up the income to Aunt Zhang's family. Their family is now busy making mops, paddy field clothes and various silk flower.

The more than 20 bags of cloth heads collected by Shen Lidong earlier had already bottomed out. Shen Lidong thought it was time to go out to collect the goods, so he took a wooden box to the school in the village.

There are no more than a hundred households in Shenjiazhuang, and they are all farmers from generation to generation. They rely on farming for food and live a thrifty life.The village head of Shenjiazhuang is also surnamed Shen, and he and Shen Lidong's family were still married, and when they met, Shen Lidong had to call the village head third uncle.

This third uncle is a sensible and knowledgeable person. He has read books and seen the world. There are not many wealthy families in the village. Grandma's family counts as a family, and Shen Danian and Hua Pozi count as a family, but the Shen family's reputation among the three families is not very good. Because of the relationship with the big house Zhu's family, the Shen family relied on Zhu's family back then, unlike the third uncle. He started his business by relying on his two sons, not like Grandma Li's family, which is a respectable family. I heard that Grandma Li was an official and a nanny in charge. She worked as a wet nurse for the young master, so she was old. The owner originally wanted to provide for Grandma Li, but Grandma Li missed the daughter married in her hometown, and wanted to bring her grandson when she came back, so the host family gave her a large sum of money. The old-age money sent Grandma Li back to her ancestral home to Shenjiazhuang. On the day when Grandma Li returned to Shenjiazhuang, she envied many farmers, and it was very beautiful.

In this way, the Shen family is naturally the last of the three families. In addition, the third uncle is a bit of a bookish person, so he looks down on Shen Danian and Hua Pozi's actions. Speaking of walking around in the past, even during the holidays, he seldom visited the Shen family.

However, the third uncle treats the people in the second room of the Shen family differently. They met each other on the road, and they are very friendly to the children in the second room of the Shen family.

It's not that Shen Lidong had just left the house, and when he was about to arrive at the school, he happened to meet his third uncle on the way.

"Hello third uncle." Shen Lidong naturally heard his family mention this third uncle, and greeted him very politely.

"It's Dong'er, where are you going to play?" Third Uncle said with a smile.

"Third uncle, Dong'er went to play with my little brother." Shen Lidong replied with a sweet smile.

"Third Uncle just came from Master Yan, and the young master is also there, Dong'er, you go, but be careful when walking alone, don't bump into each other." Third Uncle instructed Shen Lidong.

"Understood, Third Uncle, Dong'er is gone, Third Uncle has to be careful when walking." Shen Lidong walked towards the school with his calves, and Third Uncle watched from behind, cheerfully.

Today should be the first day that Brother Xuan went to refer to it. Presumably with his talent and learning, there will be no problem. The Shen family will probably have to rely on these children from the second room in the future.

Shen Lidong bid farewell to his third uncle and went to the school to find Xie Chaoyun.

This school in Shenjiazhuang, it sounds like a school, and its name sounds good, but it is actually just two earthen houses vacant by the third uncle's family. It is very stuffy in summer, and the cold wind is blowing in winter. It's very simple, and the tables and chairs look old, worn out and criss-crossed.

When Shen Lidong went to school for the first time, her fourth brother Shen Wenhai took her there. When she saw her eldest brother Shen Wenxuan and third brother Shen Wenhao studying in such a dilapidated room, the spring was cold, the cold wind was blowing, and the cotton robes It's so old, and it's not very warm for a long time. When she saw that scene, she felt sorry for them.

This is not enough to eat and not warm enough to study in this environment, how can the growing body of the eldest brother and the third brother survive?
