Farmhouse Golden Phoenix

Chapter 87

After sending Song Haoming away, Su Zhiping calmed down, with a tired look on his face: "It seems that I need to reconsider the matter of going to school with Zhi An."

"What does this have to do with your elder brother going to school?" Although Su Qinghe was delighted that Su Zhiping and Su Zhian had reconsidered, she was also a little puzzled.Su Zhi'an grinned, reached out and took out a jujube from the basket next to him, and spit out the jujube core in two or two mouthfuls: "We just found out today that the dean of Baihe Academy has some relationship with the second prince."

And the second prince happened to be the side that Mr. Shen opposed.Now they don't plan to abandon Young Master Shen and go to curry favor with the Second Prince's faction.Besides, with their current identities, even if they flatter them, they will not be able to flatter them.

The reason why they couldn't choose Baihe Academy was entirely because their relationship with Young Master Shen couldn't be exposed.But being in Baihe Academy is equivalent to being under the eyes of the second prince. If the second prince ascends the throne in the future and finds out that there are two officials in his court who were friends with Mr. Shen before, then the future of the two of them will be forgotten wanted.

If the second prince fails to ascend the throne, then he can't go to Baihe Academy, because it will definitely make the new emperor feel uncomfortable.

"You can't choose Benma Academy, you can't go to Baihe Academy, so we can only choose Qingsong Academy?" Su Qinghe didn't care about these reasons, anyway, those who play politics are very, very smart. It's not enough to watch at all, it's better to plan for your own life. ,

"Well, in fact, Qingsong Academy is also good. It can be listed as the three major academies with Baihe Academy and Benma Academy, and it also has its own unique features." Su Zhiping didn't know what he thought of, and suddenly smiled and said: "It is said that Qingsong Academy The atmosphere of the academy is very relaxed, and the people who come out of Qingsong Academy are generally divided into three categories, one is those who entered the court as officials. After studying, I will concentrate on learning, it is said that the old man Huangshi came from Qingsong Academy, and there is another category, that is, he does not show anything, although he is mediocre, he will live a happy life."

Old man Huangshi, that is a master of calligraphy in the Dahua Dynasty. His calligraphy is praised by the current emperor, and it is hard to buy.

"Then let's choose this academy!" Su Qinghe clapped her hands with a smile on her face. If her eldest brother and second brother really fail the exam and become a famous master or something in the future, then it is definitely Guangzong Yaozu who can shade future generations by the way.

In fact, compared with becoming an official, this road is also better.However, this road is slow to bear fruit, unless it is the kind of special genius.Let’s just talk about Old Man Huangshi, how famous he is now, even in the palace, the emperor has to respect him, but when he is 30 or [-] years old, who will take care of him, he is just a small person.

Even when the old man Huangshi was 40 years old, a county magistrate could put the old man Huangshi in prison.It wasn't until he was in his 40s that the handwriting of the old man Huangshi was finally appreciated, and he was considered to be in his early years.

Su Zhiping and Su Zhian don't have the ability to read and write at the age of three, compose poems at the age of five, compose poems at the age of seven, and compose poems at the age of eight. In the beginning, Su Qinghe never thought about this path.

But it's different now, the capital is fighting for the heir apparent, unless the dust falls, Su Qinghe absolutely doesn't want her two elder brothers to go to the imperial examination, and then set foot in the capital, you know, the cannon fodder are all newcomers in the officialdom.

And this is the only way that can stop Su Zhiping and Su Zhian.Since Qingsong Academy specializes in producing such talents, it is absolutely perfect for the current Su Zhiping and Su Zhian.

Even if someone finds out the relationship between Mr. Shen and their family in the future, with the teaching spirit of Qingsong Academy, the Su family may be able to escape.

"Well, you can choose this one too." Su Zhian squeezed a jujube: "Actually, let me say that it doesn't matter which academy you are in. It's like my little sister said, as long as you want to study, you can study well even if you are at home. Reading."

Su Qinghe nodded, and said proudly: "Second brother is right. In fact, I liked Qingsong Academy better before. Compared with Baihe Academy, Qingsong Academy also has a martial arts course, which is the best. Not only can you exercise your body, you can learn it well in the future, and you don’t have to be bullied.”

"Are you just thinking about being bullied?" Su Zhiping couldn't help laughing, and Su Qinghe shook her head: "Hey, I don't want to think about it that way either, but in case someone gets into a fight someday, you two should read it." After so many years of study, I must not have much strength, even if I can ride a horse and shoot an arrow, I must have a horse and a bow and arrow, but this martial arts is different, if you have a pair of fists, you will not suffer anywhere."

"Oh, it's getting late, you've been talking for a long time, are you hungry?" Su Zhiping was about to answer, when Su Zhang suddenly said: "Didn't you say you want to stay with Haoming for dinner? Just now He left, why didn't you remind me?"

"Mother, Brother Song is in a hurry. We've bought a house in the past two days, so why don't we invite Brother Song and the others to have a good meal?" Su Zhi'an immediately said with a smile, and Su Zhang nodded after thinking about it: " What you said is true, since you have decided to go to Qingsong Academy, let's go down and see if there are any suitable houses around. I also heard that Qingsong Academy was built outside the city. Is it possible? We're going to live outside the city then?"

"Of course we live in the city, but we have to live in a direction closer to Qingsong Academy, and then the elder brother and the second elder brother go to school on horseback. We have two horses in our family." Horses in this era are in different places , that is a different price.For example, in Mongolia, a bag of grain can be exchanged for a horse.However, in other places, it is different.

Taiyuan County does not produce horses, so in Taiyuan County, a horse can be sold for more than ten taels of silver.The two horses in their family were too expensive, and they almost didn't love Su Zhang to death at first, but thinking of their two sons, they still gritted their teeth and bought them.

Now, the treatment of the two horses in their family is comparable to that of their big yellow cattle.

"That's all right, let's go and have a look. Hey, it's a pity that the house we looked at before is quite close to Baihe Academy. These two academies are outside the city, one is on the west side and the other is on the east side. The distance is really not close. "

Su Zhang muttered, and Su Qinghe smiled: "Mother, it's not necessarily a bad thing, Baihe Academy is on the west side, and the people living in the west side are all big families, and the houses must be precious. Didn't we look at it in those few days? Is it? A two-entry yard costs about 800 taels. Even if we bought it, it was in tatters and had to be renovated by ourselves, which cost a lot of money. The east side is where ordinary families live, and we are just ordinary people. They just happened to buy land over there."

Su Jingsen coughed twice: "Xiao He is right. It is more cost-effective for us to live in the east of the city, and it is also cheaper to buy land outside the city. How about we buy a farm?"

Su Qinghe was taken aback: "Father, why did you think of buying a farm?"

"Two days ago, I saw other people's children going to study, and they all brought their book boys. I thought, our family doesn't have a lot of money. Why don't we just buy a farm and bring a few servants, which can help us in normal times?" Help or something."

As soon as Su Jingsen finished speaking, Su Zhang gave him a blank look: "The money is too much to burn! Let's buy a house and land first, and Xiaohe still has to study her style. We can't buy a small house when we buy a house, maybe I just need to buy a few more rooms to get through. At that time, I won’t have enough money, so I’ll sell you!”

Su Jingsen chuckled twice, but didn't answer.On the contrary, Su Qinghe is a little moved. Her parents are not young anymore, and they always work hard on weekdays. In the past two years, it is because of the exams that the eldest brother and the second brother will have to take exams. Yes, even if there is a short-term worker in the field, the father has to go and do it in person, which is really a bit too tiring.

It's just that the matter of buying someone is not a trivial matter, she has to think carefully.If money is really not enough, potatoes and sweet potatoes will be planted next year.

Putting aside these thoughts, in the afternoon, the group of people took a car to the east of the city.There are also middlemen in this area, Su Jingsen inquired about the middleman's residence, and went to the middleman's house first.

The middle-aged man, surnamed Cheng, was a middle-aged man. Hearing Su Jingsen said that he was planning to buy a house, he took out a notebook from the back room, flipped through it, and said with a smile, "It's a coincidence that there were three houses that were going to sell the house before. One is on the street next door, one is on East Street, and the other is in Shishi Alley. How many houses do you plan to buy and how many yards do you plan to buy? Do you have any requirements for the yard?"

"Well, our family has a lot of people. I plan to buy three yards. The backyard will be bigger in the end. It would be nice to have a garden. The room, this one must at least..." Su Jingsen paused to count. After all, I share a room with my child's mother, Xiao He gets a room, Zhi Ping and Zhi An each get a room, and when they get married and have children in the future, the yards will also be separated, at least one person will have three rooms, and now they will have three rooms. There are two study rooms, one for Xiaohe and one for the brothers.

"At least a dozen rooms." Su Jingsen said, in case a guest comes to the family, the guest cannot be allowed to sleep on the floor, and this room must be prepared first.

Hearing the words, the middleman looked at the book: "It's really a coincidence, these three are quite qualified, of course, if you don't like these three, we have other houses, but, Most of them are to be rented out, if you buy them, you may pay a little more money."

"Then let's take a look at the house first?" Su Jingsen hurriedly asked, and the man in the middle nodded with a smile: "That's natural, you can't buy it without looking at the house, wait a minute, I'll change a pair of shoes, let's go Go to see the house. I see that the two young masters look like scholars, but they want to take the imperial examination?"

"My son has just been admitted as a scholar and is planning to stay in the county to study, so we plan to buy a house." Su Jingsen said proudly, and the man said while changing shoes in the back room: "Oh, that's You are the future official. You bought a house here, are you planning to study in Qingsong Academy?"

"Exactly." Su Jingsen nodded and said, and the man in the middle opened the curtain again and came out: "I don't need to think about it. Among these three courtyards, there happens to be one that is relatively close to Qingsong Academy. Let's go and see it first. this?"
