Chapter 28
Seeing Fang's handing out real money, Ye Qing was stunned for a moment, he knew that the family's conditions were not good, his younger brother was studying in a school after all, so why not spend money?
It is an ordinary farm family, it is not easy to support a child to study, what's more, the conditions of the Ye family are a bit worse than ordinary people.

Ye Feng was able to study in the past because it was his father's family property left when he was still alive. Later, he was able to study because his elder brother earned money by serving as a soldier outside.

But now, the mother took out the money and said that she would leave it to him to marry a wife.

He was a little stunned for a while, although he was usually awkward, but he really didn't expect to ask Fang to give him money.

"You keep it." Seeing that Ye Qing was stunned, Fang pulled Ye Qing's hand out and said, "You are getting old and need some money for self-defense. You save this money and go to it later. If you have a daughter-in-law, you can also buy some delicious food for your daughter-in-law."

Fang said kindly, "In my mother's heart, every child in this family is my mother's darling, and so are you, including Fu Sheng, who is Man'er's real brother and a member of our family. He sleeps together, you have to take care of him more."

"I know, mother." Ye Qing nodded.

Liu Fusheng is a very sensible child, he may also be a little afraid of Ye Qing, he will go out when he wakes up early in the morning, and usually won't stay in the room for too long.

"Well, I know you are a good boy." Fang smiled and said, "Now that there are more and more people in the family, this house is not enough, and you will soon be going to your wife by then, hurry up tomorrow Mother asked Fusheng to move out of your house and let him go to the same room as Ye Feng."

This idea hit Ye Qing's heart, but he still asked one more question: "Mother, are you not afraid that Liu Fusheng will disturb your brother's study?"

"No, he is a sensible child." Fang patted Ye Qing's hand and said, "Let him stay with Feng'er for a while, it's good to be a bit bookish."

Hearing this, Ye Qing's heart skipped a beat, he had some bad premonition, "Mother, what do you mean?"

"Don't worry too much." Fang knew that Ye Qing was overthinking again, "I just saw that Fu Sheng is smart, so let Feng Er teach him a lot on weekdays."

"But, mother."

Ye Qing couldn't help but feel a little angry, he forced himself to suppress it, and said, "Your next step is not to let him go to school, right?"

Fang didn't see what was wrong with Ye Qing, so she said: "These are your elder brother's affairs, now your elder brother is not going to join the army, he is going to hunt, I can only obey him, he is good at archery, he inherited your father."

Ye Qing only felt that the muscles of the sun were twitching, and the hand holding the money suddenly softened a little.

Now even an outsider's mother wants to send him to school, how much does it cost to go to school?I heard what Liu Man'er said last night. Just a piece of paper like that costs a penny.So mother, did she give herself one or two taels of silver to send off beggars?
My heart is cold, mother, mother, you also know that the house in your house is dilapidated and the population is large, can you save some money to renovate the house?Why do you have to do this, can't you think about it for me.

I have a small family with a lot of people, even if I have more than one tael of silver, would any girl price me for such a small amount of money?
These words swirled in Ye Qing's mind, out of filial piety, he didn't say it, but his heart became more and more unwilling, the words reached his mouth, he swallowed them, and then gushed up from his mouth , but this time I couldn't swallow it anymore:

"Mother, I really have no objection to the decision you want to make, but don't you think about it in this family? Look, how many people in the village send their children to school? You, not only want to send one, You have to send two more!"

"That's what your father told me. This child will only have a future if he goes to school. People who have studied are different after all." Fang said.

"What about me?" Ye Qing couldn't help but yelled at Fang, "I'm your son too, why didn't you tell me to go to school?"

"Eldest brother has been studying for three years, and finally his father passed away. He can't justify it, but as for me, you never thought of letting me go to school!"

The more Ye Qing thought about it, the angrier he became.

"But didn't I ask you back then?" Way said with a bit of grievance, "I asked you if you want to go to school, but you said you wouldn't."

"But didn't I think about it for our family? With our family's situation, can we support two children's education?" Ye Qing clenched his fists tightly, and the broken silver in his hand burned his palms. It hurts.

"Oh, it turns out that you are complaining about your mother." Hearing Ye Qing say this, Fang also understood the crux of the matter. The child didn't understand her, and even blamed her for being biased. She thought she had been impartial all these years Yes, but I didn't expect that in the heart of the second child, she was a partiality.

Thinking of her hard work in the past few years, she also felt wronged in her heart, couldn't help rolling her eyelids, and shed tears.

Seeing Fang's tears, Ye Qing's anger slowly calmed down. Ever since his father passed away, Fang has gritted his teeth to support the family, and has hardly suffered any more. But today, being forced by her son, But burst into tears like a fountain.

"If you want to study, mother can let you study." Gritting her teeth for the last time, Fang wiped away her tears and said, "Mother is sorry for you, you are not very old now, study hard for a few years, say Maybe you can still be successful, if that's the case, then go to school tomorrow!"

After Fang finished speaking, he walked out of the room.

Ye Qing didn't want such an answer, he didn't even know what answer he wanted, maybe he just wanted Fang's not to be so nice to Liu Man'er and his brother, even seemed to be better than him.

But Fang's thoughts will never be understood. In Fang's eyes, anyone who enters Ye's family is a family.

Hearing the sound of the door opening, Liu Fusheng's body flickered quickly. Fortunately, Fang was immersed in his own sadness, and didn't look back, but left the room in a hurry.

Liu Fusheng went around to the back of the house, just now Liu Man'er asked him to call Fang and Ye Qing for dinner, but he didn't expect to hear what Fang and Ye Qing said.

There was nothing shameful about it, but Liu Fusheng felt inexplicably uncomfortable. He squatted behind the house by himself, picked up a branch, and kept writing on the ground the willow characters that Liu Man'er gave him last night.

His surname is Liu, not Ye.

He drew strokes on the ground stroke by stroke, obviously yesterday there seemed to be some words that he didn't know how to write, but today he wrote them out perfectly, and deeply remembered them in his heart.

When Fang Shi came in, Liu Man'er had already brought the porridge to the table, and she took out a bowl of pickles from the jar, cut a small piece of the meat she bought yesterday, and fried it together. very.

"Mother, come over for breakfast." Liu Man'er called her when she saw Shi Fang coming in.

"Hey, good." Fang also agreed softly, the strangeness in her son's room just now has disappeared without a trace.

Ye Qing also came in after her, Ye He had already sat on the table and waited, the whole family was ready, only Liu Fusheng was missing.

Liu Man'er asked Fang, "Mother, why didn't Fusheng come in with you?"

Fang felt a little strange, but still replied: "I didn't see him."

Liu Man'er said: "I asked him to ask you to have dinner just now, but who knows where he went, this kid."

As she spoke, she stood up, "I'll look for it."

Fang's yard is so big, Liu Man'er went to Ye Qing's room, and immediately saw Liu Fusheng, at this moment, he was packing things in the room.

The little child carefully stuffed a slingshot and a few pieces of candy wrapped in kraft paper into a simple and rough bag.

After Liu Man'er saw it, she felt a little baffled, so she walked over and asked, "Fusheng, what are you doing?"

"Sister, I don't want to live here." Liu Fusheng said in a crying voice, "I want to go home."

Liu Fusheng raised his head, and Liu Man'er was taken aback. At this moment, his eye sockets were red with tears, and his big eyes were wet, which was really pitiful.

"What's the matter?" Liu Man'er walked over, sat next to Liu Fusheng, patted his head, and said, "Did something happen? Tell my sister about something, she must be the master for you, who told you?" Yet?"

"No." Liu Fusheng kept shaking his head with tears in his voice, "I just want to go home. Even if I have poor food and poor housing at home, it's my own home, and I don't want to stay here. .”

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Liu Man'er scolded lightly.

If the Liu family could support Liu Fusheng, they wouldn't let him follow him to the Ye family. After all, the Ye family was so poor at that time. From this we can see how poor the Liu family must be.

The Liu family lived in the mountains, and it was really a backcountry. As far as I could remember, there were no paddy fields in the house, only some mountainous land. People who depended on the mountains to eat the mountains depended on the favor of the heavens.Although they live in the mountains, their hunting skills are not very high after all, not everyone is like Ye Yuan, with extraordinary skills.

In his memory, when Liu Man'er was at Liu's house, she ate sorghum for almost every meal, and rarely ate rice.

Therefore, if Liu Fusheng went back, he would definitely not be able to do so.

"You didn't have any reason, why did you say you wanted to go home? Did you miss your parents?" Liu Man'er coaxed, "If you miss your parents, I will take you back to see them next time, okay? "

"No." Liu Fusheng shook his head. During the Chinese New Year, his parents didn't come to see him. He was really disappointed, but when he was wronged, he was the first to think of his parents.

"Then why do you want to go back? Could it be that Ye Qing said something?" Liu Man'er guessed.

"No." Liu Fusheng shook his head violently, but he cried even more violently.

Seeing him like this, Liu Man'er understood, this Ye Qing has always been a bit petty, but now she can make money without relying on him, even Liu Man'er used to work in the Ye family no less than him, I don't know his brain Thinking about something.
