Chapter 210 The Test of Human Nature (3)
Your father is almost turning gray with worry, but your elder brother Han Chuang has studied hard for so many years, isn't it just to be able to go to the capital to take the Jinshi examination and come back, so that he can shine on his family?Your father thought, even if it's a waste of money, we have to let your eldest brother go to the capital to pass the exam.

Huang Yalin understood Li Shi's words.She also waited for her eldest brother to be admitted to Jinshi, and then she would pull Ah Jing.Not to mention other things, just his own children will study in the future, and there is also an uncle who is a person of official career, which still has an influence on him.

"Mother, you wait here, I'll go ask my mother-in-law!" Because this family has no division, even if it is borrowing money, it may not be very easy to borrow.Although parents-in-law and mother-in-law are better for themselves, they can't just consider themselves.

The two sister-in-laws are about to get married, and the family needs a lot of money for food and clothing.Even if they can be borrowed, I am afraid that there are not many.

Mrs. Huang Li was in the house, feeling uneasy for a long time. She couldn't sit still for so long. She got up and walked back and forth, but she still didn't see Huang Yalin come back.Thinking about getting up and going out to find her, if it really doesn't work, forget it.

However, before reaching the hall, I heard a shrill female voice coming from inside: "Joke, what does your elder brother's examination for his Jinshi have to do with our family? Why do you want us to borrow money. If you have money, you can borrow it yourself. In short Don't ask your mother to borrow it. You must know that the money here is not only shared by your family, but also by all of us. Besides, if you lend all the money to your elder brother, what should we eat, drink, and wear? What? If you don’t have money, don’t take the exam. Anyway, you are a juren, and the imperial court also gives a lot of silver subsidies every year. When your family has money again, you can pass the exam if you don’t pass the exam.”

"Sisters and sisters, I'm looking for my mother to borrow, not you. Why are you so excited? Besides, it's not like I borrowed the money and didn't pay it back. My father is the head of the Lihua village. Can he do such unreliable things? My eldest brother If you can be admitted to Jinshi, isn't it the credit of our family that you will read first at that time?"

Huang Yalin's voice came out immediately.It's just that there was more or less annoyance in that voice.

"I said sister-in-law, why do you miss your natal family so much? Why don't you think that my little sister and I will get married in a short time. If you asked your mother to borrow the money, where is our dowry? Do we have to wait? Seeing that your eldest brother has been admitted to the Jinshi examination, and the money is returned to us, shall we remarry?"

Immediately afterwards, another voice came out. Judging from this sentence, it was Huang Yalin's eldest sister-in-law.

"Hey, Yalin, it's not that mother won't help you. You also know that our family is such a big family, so which one needs to spend money for food and clothing? Now if I lend the money to your eldest brother, our family will Where is chewing used? Don’t blame your mother for being biased and crow’s mouth. Whether your eldest brother can pass the exam is still a question. Now you want to ask our family to borrow money, and the money will undoubtedly be wasted. .Even if I come back, I don’t know how many years it will take. All this money has been saved by our family over the past ten or twenty years. It’s not easy for you to borrow so much.”

Huang Yalin's mother-in-law really didn't like the matter of Huang Wenjun going to the Juren examination.There are a lot of literati in the world these days. If everyone can pass the exam, there won't be so many people who fail every time.

Rather than lending money to someone who doesn't know when it will be returned, it's better to hold it in your hand.Anyway, if he has the ability to take the exam and passes the exam, as a family relationship with in-laws, he will have to pull himself out in the future.

She believed that Yalin wouldn't talk nonsense about today's matter.Especially in her natal family, this girl is also very smart.As long as her natal family doesn't know, then everything is easy to talk about.

If this fails, it has nothing to do with my family.Anyway, the silver is still in the pocket, that's just a matter of Ya Lin's natal family.

After Huang Yalin heard this, if she didn't understand, she would be a fool if she persisted.It's just that when I think that my eldest brother has no money and may not be able to take the exam, I feel uncomfortable and panic.I said to my mother-in-law: "Mom, I'm leaving!" and then backed out.

"Mom!" Huang Yalin exclaimed as soon as she came out!
Seeing Mrs. Huang Li bursting into tears in the yard, she was startled. Could it be that mother heard the quarrel just now?Otherwise, why would my mother have such an expression?

"Yalin, there's still something to do at home, mother is leaving first!" Li Shi wiped away her tears with the corner of her sleeve, spread a far-fetched smile, turned and left.

The people in the room heard Huang Yalin's exclamation, and when they came out, they happened to see the back of Huang Lishi leaving, and they all seemed to be choking while eating.

"Yarin, this..."

Obedient to her mother-in-law's cry, Huang Yalin stopped in her tracks, and sneered: "It's okay, mother, let's go back to the house to rest!"

At this moment, her heart was really cold!I thought that even if I couldn't borrow it, I could make up an excuse and talk to my mother.But the people in the in-law's family said those words, let alone mothers, even I felt uncomfortable hearing them.

He just left without taking any money.No matter what, take your two taels of silver and send it to your mother first.No matter how much or how little, one or two more is one or two.

Huang Yalin hurried out with the silver, and saw her mother walking down the road in a daze from a distance, feeling extremely worried.

A few steps forward, he led Huang Li's hand and said: "Mother, I still have two taels of silver here, you can use it first. Or, I will accompany you to the town now, and see if there is any for my little sister?" "

Huang Lishi looked at her eldest daughter and nodded, that's all she could do.It's just that Yamei has not been married for a long time, so how can she say such a thing with so much money.

As soon as the mother and daughter left Taohua Village, they ran into Huang Wenjun at the junction of Lihua Village and Taohua Village.

"Mother, where are you going?" Huang Wenjun looked at his mother's bitter face, with traces of crying, and glanced at his eldest sister, wondering.

"Brother, we are going to ask my younger sister to lend money!" Huang Yalin looked at her elder brother, feeling very strange.He didn't have enough money, so why did he still look relaxed, and he didn't look anxious.

"Mom, let's go home. You don't have to worry about money, I'll take care of it myself! Yalin, you go home first, so your parents-in-law won't be unhappy."

Huang Wenjun supported his mother, and said to the stunned eldest sister.

"Ah Jun, do you mean that you have already borrowed money? But, who would borrow so much money from our family? You must have done something shameful, right?"

The more Huang Li thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible. The original excitement disappeared at this moment.

Huang Yalin also felt very strange, and the eldest brother said that he had done it himself.That's 50 taels of silver, a large amount of money, money that people can't save in a lifetime, how did the elder brother say it was so easy.
