Chapter 385 Ten Years Later (2)
For Li Qi earning so much money, he just smiled and showed no other expressions.

Lan Jia knew that even if she didn't sell it to Li Qi, those masters were so smart, they would figure it out sooner or later after careful consideration.

Lan Jia's room was built as a conservatory. Once the fire was turned on, the whole room felt very warm, and it had a wooden floor. During the day, Lan Jia put bedding, cotton wadding and other things in the closet.

When the weather is cold, Lan Jia moves to the eldest sister's room and sleeps with her.

This room became a room for needlework and reading. When the eldest brother, brother Li Rui, and Wu Zhuang were studying, everyone felt that they were not talking, chatting, playing, and ran outside to play if they wanted to.

The fish in the fish pond, like molten iron, grow a little bit a year.

When the lotus in the fish pond is in full bloom, it is really beautiful. Every year when the lotus root is harvested in winter, everyone is very happy. The weather is cold and there are few vegetables in winter, so the lotus root is favored by many people.

Lan Jia's family made a lot of money from lotus roots. The lotus roots were collected by people in the village. Everyone gave 50 Wen a day, and a meal was included. Every household in the village gave ten catties of lotus roots.

Although some people are jealous that Lan Jia's family collects so many lotus roots, and Lan Jia's family needs help with things, they often ask people in the village to help, and the wages are 10 yuan more expensive than those in the town, but they all think that Lan Jia's family is really good at dealing with people.

Coupled with the fact that Lan Cao married Li Zheng's son, it was even more impossible for everyone to say anything.

Liu Jin's older brother, Liu Zhen, came to Lanjia to play. After seeing orchid grass, he fell in love with it and often went to Lanjia's house to play. Over time, Liu Zhen won Lancao's heart, and the two married naturally.

Liu Zhen used all the money he earned as a betrothal gift, and his parents also took out 100 taels of silver for Liu Zhen to send to Lancao's family as a betrothal gift.

There is a lot of dowry for bluegrass, with four shops, ten acres of fertile land, and 200 taels of silver at the bottom of the box.

Liu Zhen's love for Lancao continued unabated, Lancao was considerate of Liu Zhen, Lancao had given birth to two sons, and she was always smiling, so she knew how happy Lancao was.

What makes people feel incredible is that Liu Yan likes Lan Tao, and often goes to Lan Jia's house to play and help with things, and she is really nice to Lan Tao.

Knowing that Lan Tao dotes on Lan Jia, she really responds to Lan Jia's requests. Fortunately, Lan Jia is an adult soul. If not, it would be strange not to be spoiled by them.

Although Lan Tao is lukewarm towards Liu Yan, he actually likes it very much. Lan Tao is a coquettish type, just pretending to be cool. If not, he will never allow Liu Yan to follow. Yan is more familiar than Lan Jia.

Uncle Lan Jia's family has been separated, and through the efforts of the family, life is now good.

Although they didn't interact with Lan Jia's family, fortunately, Lan Jia reminded them that their family lives well and feel at ease.

What makes the family most happy is that their family will no longer be said to be an extinct family. They have a son, and they are also a family with sons and daughters.

Since Lan Jia's aunt gave birth to a son, Lan Jia's grandpa and grandma have never found fault with their family.

Lan Jia's grandpa and grandma's house, because Lan Jia's uncle has been studying, but he has no results, and he is still a child. The money wasted by the uncle's reading is no different from throwing money into the water.

Lan Jia's grandpa and grandma gave up on letting my uncle study.

However, my uncle has been studying and has really become a scholar who can't lift his shoulders or hands, and his son is a lazy person.

Now in order to survive, I have to work and grow crops. After paying taxes, I save money and dig some wild vegetables to support my family.

In order to live a better life and get something for nothing, Lan Li went to Lan Jia's house to play and roll.

Lan Dazhi insisted on not giving him any money, even though his parents treated him badly and asked him to ignore him, he definitely couldn't get over that hurdle in his heart.

Give Lan Jia's grandfather and grandmother 1 tael of silver every month, and give 60 catties of grain. As for whether they will subsidize Lan Li's family, it is not a matter of his concern.

Lan Jia opened a few more shops, and went to other towns, where her two cousins ​​helped take care of them. They were paid 5 taels of silver every month, and they married wives and had children.

Wu Ping is also married and has children. Her husband is smart and capable, and she also helps out in Lanjia's shop, but let him be the shopkeeper.

The husbands Wu Xi and Wu Xin found were simple and honest, and when they went to do odd jobs in the shop, each of them was paid two taels of silver. It was impossible to earn so much silver when they went outside.

Liu Yang is a bit of a jumper, and reading is really not that fast. He took the test for a child student, and then took the test twice, but he didn't pass the test. He told Lan Jia that he would help in their shop. Lan Jia said anything he liked. Come out, I don't like twitchy people.

Lan Jia felt that it was better to find someone who knew the basics rather than someone she was not familiar with, so she agreed to Liu Yang's request without hesitation and asked him to work as a shopkeeper in another town.

Liu Qi saw Lan Tao and heard Lan Tao say that he was studying, so he asked his parents to send him to study.

In the past, Liu Qi's parents asked Liu Qi to study, but Liu Qi refused to agree to it. Seeing Liu Qi volunteering to study, the family was very happy.

His studies were not bad, but he passed the examination of a scholar, and felt that it was impossible for him to take the examination of Juren, so he voluntarily gave up and ran to Lan Jia's house whenever he was free.

For him, Li Rui's reading was like a fish in water, easy and at ease. When he was resting, Lan Jia seldom saw Li Rui reading alone, and often taught Lan Jia to read and write.

Lan Tao taught his mother, father, and eldest sister to know a lot of characters and to keep accounts.

During Mu Xiu's time, Li Rui and Lan Jia were inseparable.

Li Rui's academic performance was really outstanding, and he easily passed the exam, so Li Rui gave up and did not plan to study anymore.

If Lan Jia didn't come to his home often, chat with his mother, and do needlework, Lan Jia would spend less time at his home. He might take the exam for a scholar, and he wouldn't take the exam again.

Although Liu Jin was smart, he was a little inferior compared to Li Rui. His grades were comparable to Li Rui's. Mu Xiu seldom rested and studied hard at home, not as relaxed as Li Rui.

Lan Tao's IQ was about the same as Liu Jin's. He heard from others that he didn't like the intrigue in the officialdom.

I don't want to live so hard, and my parents only have one son, and my family bought more than 1 mu of land.

In order not to pay taxes in the future, his goal is to be a scholar. It is really easy for him to be a scholar.

Lan Jia heard from Li Rui that his mother was very good at needlework and exquisite embroidery, so she went to Li Rui's house to play.
