Chapter 745

The 64th dragon scale (III)

Old man Liu and the Wang family took their son and reasoned with him. They said that the shopkeeper of others' house had seen the world and had great skills. Their family couldn't afford to climb up. If they really recognized their relationship with others, wouldn't it take advantage of others? I dare not do such a thing.

The five sisters nodded on the side.

Who knows that the six treasures of their family forked their waist, held their small stomach and said plausibly: "... But I will study and test the No. 1 scholar in the future. When I get the No. 1 scholar and become a senior official, won't I be able to repay him?"

Old man Liu:

Wang:

Sisters:

They want to send Liubao to study, but the champion? I didn't even think about it. They know how difficult it is to be a scholar. It's great to be a scholar! There are also some people who have been a scholar all their life after being admitted to the scholar, and can't go up again. The champion is still waiting! How difficult is it to be the number one? The brains of the Liu family can't think of it together!

However, Liubao has ambition and confidence. Look at the small appearance, Wang nodded with great confidence in his son: "yes, Liubao is right! Our six treasures are going to be top officials in the exam! "

The sisters were all brain powder and nodded desperately. Only an old man Liu was left. He was dizzy and biased by his wife and daughter. It seemed that Liu Bao, who was five years old, would be the number one tomorrow.

The matter of recognizing a close relative was settled. Shopkeeper Fang was very happy when he learned that. The next day, he personally went to Daliushu village with a big gift to pay a visit. After that, the villagers of Daliushu village all knew that Liubao, who was very good-looking in old man Liu's family, recognized the shopkeeper of a big restaurant as a godfather, and the family's life was booming! It's a pity that they can't envy. Who calls their children as good as others?

In this way, when the new year comes, the river freezes, and fish and small snails can't see anything. However, the Liu family already has a lot of silver. Old man Liu generously decided to take his family to buy new year goods in the town.

Before he went out, the shopkeeper came in a carriage and brought a carriage of new year goods, including cloth, cakes, snacks, bacon and so on. When old man Liu took over, his hands were shaking. He was greatly indebted to others! Shopkeeper Fang was afraid that he would not accept it. He also specially said that we will be a family in the future. There is no need to pay attention to some of them. If we want to go to school after the sixth year of treasure, we might as well not go to the school opened by the scholar in the next village and go to the private school in the town, so that he can take care of it.

Old man Liu hesitated. In that case, he would have to see his son once a month. His son was only six years old and he couldn't bear it.

The shopkeeper asked, "brother, have you ever thought about moving your family to town?"

Old man Liu asked. He really didn't think about it. Crops live on the land and die on the land. He never said to move home.

"Brother, I'd better consider it. Liubao is also my son now. Naturally, I plan for him wholeheartedly. The school in this village is different from the private school in the town. The teacher of the private school is a whole family! If my brother wants to move to town, I can help manage it. "

Let's not say whether to go or not. Old man Liu felt ashamed of being the owner of the house. He thanked him again and again. The owner of the house hurriedly relieved until a round dressed baby came out of the door: "Godfather!"

"Hey!" The shopkeeper was overjoyed. He caught the baby who rushed towards him, hugged him in his arms, and scraped the young face of others with his bearded face. "Do you want to be a godfather?"

"Think about it!" Exquisite answer is crisp.

He is a very realistic person. He likes whoever is nice to him. Since he recognized shopkeeper Fang as the godfather, the delicious food has not been broken at home. Old man Liu doesn't want it, shopkeeper Fang pretends to be angry - it's all for my son. You don't want it, I want my son!

Linglong is really rude. He wants to kill whatever he gives. His godfather has good cooking skills. The dishes are delicious and people want to swallow their tongue, so he wants people to eat nothing without being shy! Shopkeeper Fang also likes him to come and go like this. If he likes it, he wants it. He doesn't need that little silver! He's willing to hurt his son. Can anyone control it? Besides, he's still waiting for him to throw a basin after he's a son!

Old man Liu felt inappropriate at first, but later he got used to it. He couldn't help it. Who told him to recognize his relationship and his son's meal was delicious? In the past, the family tried every means to cook food for him. He was not willing to take two bites and ate very little. It's strange that the family was poor. It's different after having the godfather of the shopkeeper. Usually, the shopkeeper doesn't say to give you money or anything. He just sends delicious food. People name it for the Godson. Can old man Liu?

Linglong ate so well that he couldn't say anything to his mother-in-law. He was only grateful. At ordinary times, he told Linglong to be filial to Godfather and listen to godfather's words in the future.

Adults have adults' affairs, children have children's affairs.

Linglong is a very food protective person. Most people don't even think about what they want to eat, but he is very generous to his five sisters and is willing to share the food given by godfather to his sisters.

And shopkeeper Fang is serious. He recognized Linglong as a dry son and was very concerned about the old man Liu's family. He told the old man Liu that not to mention that Liubao could have a better husband in the city, but to say that your big girl has reached hairpin this year. Don't you want to see a good family with a rich family? But what good people are there in this village? How can you live well if you don't have enough to eat? When you go to the city, you can do some business in the whole small stall, which is good for children and adults.

He walked across the South and across the north. He spoke gently, sincerely and insightfully. Old man Liu and Wang had little resistance, so he was moved. After thinking about it, Wang went to the house and took out a cloth bag. In the cloth bag was several dozen liang of silver saved recently. Except for five Liang, she took out all the rest to the shopkeeper.

They said that they would help them find a house. Let's not mention the hard work and expenses. Can the house money be paid by the shopkeeper?

That's shameless! Liu's family can't do such shameless things.

Shopkeeper Fang couldn't help laughing. The family is really simple. He gently pushed the silver back: "don't worry about looking for a house. There are several yards under my name. I can give you a set. Don't say I'm not happy. I'm all for my six treasures. I really take him as a son. If I fall in love with this child, you can share it with me so clearly, That is not to treat me as a family. "

As you said, old man Liu and Wang were stupid and didn't know how to reply.

Afterwards, he could only catch Liubao and told him again that he must be filial to his godfather and be a good child.

Shopkeeper Fang is very efficient. A few days after the new year, he drove to pick up the Liu family. The house in the town is his. It is a clean and tidy farmyard, which is just in line with the Liu family's idea. He can raise chickens and vegetables, and the room is just enough to live. In addition, shopkeeper Fang also found an embroidery master for Daniu Erniu. Sanniu and Siniu don't want to learn embroidery, so he also found work for Daniu Erniu, Even old man Liu was not idle. He took him to the restaurant to help.

Wuniu and Wang usually manage their home. Before the private school starts, the shopkeeper makes two roast chickens and digs a jar of wine made by himself. Old man Liu carries five Liang silver and carries the bacon he made at home. There is a baby between the two old brothers and runs to his husband's house.

The private school didn't open until after the Lantern Festival, but the student surnamed Mei was very talented and selective. He didn't pay a visit in advance and sent it directly. The old brothers felt that the baby was likely to be thrown back.

Mr. Mei has no wife and no children, but there are many students. Someone comes to give gifts during the new year's festival. He has long been tired of it. He told his family to guard at the door and no one will enter. Fortunately, the shopkeeper of the room has some private friends with Mr. Mei. Mr. Mei has no other hobbies, but he is a glutton and likes to eat. The whole Tongping county belongs to the shopkeeper of the room, who has good skills, so they know each other, It's said that the shopkeeper came with a roast chicken. Mr. Mei, who has a fairy spirit, almost dripped his saliva.

When they met, he didn't notice the delicious roast chicken in the shopkeeper's hand, but first saw the little meat baby who was shorter than the shopkeeper's thigh.

The shopkeeper patted his dry son's small face, "go and salute Mr."

He taught Linglong that Linglong didn't have stage fright at all. He went up and raised his hands and bowed solemnly: "Hello, sir."

The milky, and gave birth to a pair of stars like big eyes, really cute.

Mr. Mei can be said to be a cool person in this era. He has no wife and children for nothing else because he doesn't want to. But he didn't hate children, not to mention the lovely Jade Snow. Mr. Rao Shimei couldn't help reaching out and touching his head: "he's a good child, Lao Fang. Where did you get it?"

Isn't it a crime?

In that case, do you want to report to the county government? Mr. may was lost in deep thought.

Shopkeeper:

Old man Liu: I'm right next to you, sir. Can't you really see it?

"Lao Fang is my godfather!" Linglong answered crisply and took old man Liu's hand, "this is my father!"

Mr. Mei was stunned and smiled: "I see."

Shopkeeper Fang didn't tell him much either. He came straight to the point and said he wanted him to take Linglong as an apprentice.

The child was good-looking. His appearance alone passed half the mark. Mr. Mei asked, "have you ever read a book before?"

He thought it should not be. After all, the child grew up in the village when he was young. It's normal not to know any big characters. Just teach it slowly. Old man Liu is simple and honest, and the shopkeeper is calm and sincere. Such a child that both like is a good one.

Shopkeeper Fang shook his head: "I haven't officially read it. My brother can't read. Although I bought him three hundred thousand, I can't teach him. That is, I taught him to read it several times, but what can such a young child remember? Brother Mei, you have to teach me, so I won't waste this good seedling. "

Mr. Mei couldn't care less about roast chicken. He went to the house to find a thousand word text and waved to Linglong.

When the milk baby approached, Mr. Mei had the impulse to pinch his face to see if it was as soft and tender as it looked. Fortunately, as a teacher, he held back and cleared his throat, "Liubao, your name is Liubao, isn't it?"

Linglong nodded: "yes."

"Your Godfather preached that you have read it. Do you still have an impression?"

Linglong read a book and said with a smile, "Sir, I can do this."

Then he recited loudly with his little hand on his back: "heaven and earth are dark and yellow, and the universe is desolate. The sun and moon are full and the sun and moon are full. Cold comes and summer goes, autumn harvests and winter hides. Leap Yu becomes a year old, and LV tunes Yang... "

As he recited one sentence at a time, the three adults present all stared, especially the shopkeeper. No one knew better than him. He just took his dry son to read it several times, and it was the kind that he read one sentence at a time, because he really didn't read too many books and couldn't teach the child, but who knew that the child actually recited it?

To tell you the truth, shopkeeper Fang can't recite

Mr. Mei couldn't hide the smile on his face: "good, good!"

He said three good words in a row, and then looked at Linglong as if he were looking at a golden doll. In order to test his memory, he read a few poems at will and asked Linglong to repeat them. The little man still had a good posture, carried his hands behind his back, and recited the poem read by Mr. Mei word by word.

Mr. Mei patted the table on the spot: "I accept this student!"

The shopkeeper quickly patted the little guy on the head: "don't salute Mr. soon!"

When he came out of Mr. Mei's house, old man Liu was still dizzy. When he gave birth to this son, he thought his son was good, good-looking and good-minded. He didn't even want to study so well! What did Mr. Fang Caimei say... He said "this son will become a great weapon"!

Old man Liu felt dizzy all the way home, just like walking on cotton. Shopkeeper Fang's joy was reflected. He directly picked up his dry son and let him ride on his neck. He also bought him a windmill to play with. He was very happy.

As soon as the Lantern Festival was over and the private school opened, the children, big and small, found a small bean among them.

Mr. Mei likes Linglong very much. After that night, he asked old man Liu to send the child every day. He didn't go to taste tea, play the piano and appreciate the plum blossoms. He opened a small stove for Linglong first. The child is like a shriveled sponge and quickly absorbs knowledge for his own use. You never know where his limit is. Mr. Mei, who failed repeatedly, even felt that his unfulfilled ambition would be carried forward in the child.

He has no shortage of talent. Unfortunately, he has lost some luck. Over time, he no longer adheres to the scientific examination. Instead, he returns to his hometown to open a private school as a teacher. It seems that he is carefree, but he dreams back at midnight. Why don't he sigh?

Mr. Mei places his dream on Linglong. How kind he is to Linglong at ordinary times and how strict he is to Linglong in reading.

This kind of special treatment immediately made other students feel jealous. Why read with them?

They discussed to teach Linglong a lesson.

This day, Linglong was left to open a small stove as usual. His learning progress was very fast. Mr. Mei was worried that he learned too fast to deeply understand the meaning in the book. He often crumpled the sentences and explained them to him bit by bit. Therefore, Linglong's foundation was very good. It was easy for him to learn these things.

The children waiting to teach Linglong a lesson outside are worried. Why doesn't this man come out! It's getting dark!

At ordinary times, they want to bully Linglong in the private school. Unfortunately, everyone is afraid of the strict sir. In addition, Linglong is Mr. Li's proud disciple. If they beat him in the private school, they will inevitably be punished by Mr. Li. So after discussion, they want to take advantage of Linglong and teach him a lesson. At least they have to warn him not to learn so fast and so well in the future, Don't let Mr. like him so much!

Linglong came out slowly with his small schoolbag on his back. The small schoolbag was sewn by his eldest sister and second sister according to his idea. It is very trendy and beautiful.

As soon as he left the door of his husband's house, he saw several twisted legs around the corner. His clothes were quite familiar. It was his private school classmate. Linglong thought for a while, then went back and went straight to find her husband.

Mr. Mei was very happy to see him back: "Liu Bao, why are you back?"

To tell the truth, Linglong thinks that Mr. is really a little refined. When he taught him to read, it was called as cold as winter. He called him by name and surname, just like calling an enemy; In private, he is gentle and loving. He likes to pinch his little meat face. Sooner or later, he will lose his baby fat!

"Sir, someone wants to hit me."

"What!" Upon hearing this, Mr. Mei immediately stood up and rolled up his sleeve, "who is so bold?"

"I dare not go home. My father hasn't come yet." Having read with Mr. Mei for a year, but still chubby little meat baby hugged Mr. Mei's thigh, "they block me outside. I'm so afraid. I can't beat them. There are too many of them!"

Mr. Mei is so angry that he looks for a yardstick everywhere. He usually teaches them to bully his classmates?

The children waiting for Linglong to throw himself into the net outside were stunned... The clever man shouted run! Mr. Mei shouted louder than them: "I see who dares to run!"

The little carrots stood obediently and dared not move. They were all dragged back by Mr. Mei and increased their homework again. Linglong was pitiful on the side. Relying on Mr. Mei, they refused to let go: "Sir, I'm afraid."

Mr. Mei was as warm as spring to him. He touched his head, pinched his face, gave him a cake, and took him to a chair to sit down.

At ordinary times, the shopkeeper and old man Liu are very fond of Linglong. Mr. Mei is worried that he will spoil his temper, so he seldom holds him. It is rare today, mainly because the little disciple was almost beaten and he was distressed. This little meat baby has a magical affinity. Everyone who gets close to him will involuntarily want to get close to and love him. Mr. Mei thinks he is a layman, Of course, there is no exception.

Linglong nibbled at the sweet cakes, and then looked at the students who were kept in front of him. While Mr. Mei was not paying attention, she winked at them and made faces. It meant a lot of provocation, which made the heads of the little carrots angry.

On the way home, old man Liu wanted to eat crumbling baked cakes again. Old man Liu bought one for him with a smile. Linglong ate while walking. It's not too happy.

In the past, old man Liu was worried about whether his son would be bullied in the private school. Later, he learned that although his family Liubao was six years old, he was not very long, but he had a lot of heart! He is the only one who bullies others. He didn't say others bullied him!

When I went to school the next day, except for the energetic and exquisite, others were wilting and chirping, just like frost eggplant. It can be seen that I stayed up late last night to copy books.

In the following two years, they have never stopped their hostility and challenge to Linglong. However, children solve their own problems and do not need adults to intervene. Therefore, these little carrots are defeated and defeated repeatedly. Mr. Mei will be angry at first. Later, he realized that xiaolinglong will not suffer losses at all and let them play by themselves.

He felt that the fight seemed to improve the feelings of the dolls.

After Linglong's ninth birthday, Mr. Mei said he would go to the county examination in February next year. In his opinion, the little disciple's talent and learning had long been enough. He was afraid of his pride and hurting Zhongyong, so he didn't give the test. In Mr. Mei's opinion, the county and government tests were not difficult for Linglong, and it was just for him to practice his skills.

Mr. Mei has participated in the joint examination and is very familiar with the examination process of this dynasty. He is also very famous in Tongping county. Even the county magistrate is polite when talking to him. He personally guarantees Linglong. Others are not qualified to say no.

The family's six treasures are finally about to start the exam. The whole family is very excited. Linglong himself is the least excited. It's totally inappropriate to eat and sleep.

After February 1 of the new year, the county trial began. Linglong, who is ten years old, is still not very long. She is a small one. She doesn't know where to put all the food she eats on weekdays. Instead of being fat, she is thin!

Mr. Mei used to love to pinch his fleshy face. Now he sighs when he pinches it. It's really not fun to pinch less meat!

The county test will last for three days, once a day, three times in total. This time, not only Linglong, but also several other disciples of Mr. Mei will end up for the first time. Their mood is obviously much more flustered than Linglong. However, Mr. Mei said that the difficulty of the county test is not high, the admission is wide, and the foundation is solid.

It's very troublesome to take the test. You should not only sing the insurance, but also search your body. Candidates can take their seats only after saluting and singing the roll. The inspection is very strict, and there is basically no possibility of impersonation.

If someone cheats or replaces him, he will be punished not only himself, but also the person who guarantees him and his classmates.

No one dares to do this as long as there is no brain problem.

The content of the county test is nothing more than four books, test posts, poems, Fu, policies, etc. after they are written in accordance with the rules, the examiner will admit those who have a clean surface, neat font and smooth sentences. If the test paper has a little dirty ink, it basically needs to be put back, which Mr. Mei has repeatedly told.

Linglong is the youngest and smallest of all the candidates, so it is quite eye-catching. The county magistrate came to inspect him, met him, and specially went to him to look at his paper. Seeing that his words have things and character, he nodded unconsciously. He thought that he was Mr. Mei's proud disciple. This skill alone threw away many people.

His son is also studying at Mr. Mei's, but it's a pity that he's really not the material for reading, and there's Linglong to make a comparison. The county magistrate has long given up hope. He only passed the county test three times. What else can he hope his son to do?

Linglong is a young genius. He has heard of it and intends to make friends, so he is more and more respectful to Mr. Mei.

This child is not in the pool. One day, it will rise straight up.
