Chapter 111 A family does not speak two languages
Sending the old woman away, she didn't stop. This matter has nothing to do with her, so push it to Mr. Wang. If he is willing to accept him, he will teach him. It is just one more student. Dare to be angry with him?
At the moment Mrs. Wang is feeding the small animals in the backyard, while Mr. Wang is drinking tea and reading a book in the house.
The woman said at the door, "Grandpa, at the gate of the courtyard, Miss Xin'er came back in three days and brought my uncle to see you."
Mr. Wang hummed, "Call them in."
As soon as Xin'er and Xianggong entered the room, they quickly saluted the old gentleman.
"Xin'er pays respects to sir, and Feng Yinshi pays respects to sir."
"Well, sit down,"
The two girls who followed hurriedly put the gift box on the table and retreated.
"Where is the old lady?"
"I went to the backyard, seeing those little guys all day is closer than seeing my own grandson"
Feng Yin glanced at Xin'er expectantly. She has lived in the house for a long time, and she still has a certain understanding of her husband's preferences.
"Sir, do you still accept students?"
"I don't want to accept it anymore, just these few will make the old man tired enough, and I don't have the energy to take it anymore. If it weren't for your master's good cooking skills to make the old man's appetite, I wouldn't accept any of them. I plan to take it."
"Sir, Xin'er's husband-in-law is 18 years old this year, and he was selected as a scholar at the age of 16. He still wants to go further, do you think?"
"Let's go to Fenglin College in Fucheng. There are quite a few Jinshi graduates there."
"No one can introduce you there, and you can't get in. Besides, the one-year Shu Xiu is so high, my husband's family can't afford it."
Mr. Wang's eyes narrowed after hearing this, his face was a little dark, and he took a deep look at Xin'er.
Once this woman became someone else's daughter-in-law, all her thoughts were put on her husband's family, and she didn't think about Mrs. Qiao and shopkeeper Lu at all.
"You don't want to spend money, but you still want your husband to worship a famous teacher. How can there be such a good thing in this world? Just take your master as an example. Don't look at whether she has given me Shuxiu every year. Do you know that your master The money spent on this old man is more than three times higher than that of Shu Xiu."
Ru Xin and Feng Yinshi blushed, "Mister is right."
"You call me sir, then I will tell you, your master is so kind to you, you can't repay her in your life, what have you done for her?"
"Xin'er is ashamed"
"You see that she has no time to relax all day long, and she is desperately making money for this family. Your family eats, drinks, and lives here. She pays for all the money, even the money for your wedding. Did you ever want to share it with her?"
"Xin'er really didn't think about it."
"The old man's Shuxiu is calculated to be much more expensive than Fucheng's. Do you still want to take advantage of your master and let your husband come in to save a lot of Shuxiu? Let's not talk about this for the time being.
If the old man agrees, will you and your husband-in-law want to live here again and continue to eat and drink for nothing? If you spend money, your master will definitely not allow it,
If you don’t spend money, you’re here to get rich again. Have you ever thought about your master? Is she tired? Is her money enough for the big family expenses?
The old man came to answer you, the old man loves your master, this girl is too tired, too hard, the old man doesn't want to bring someone home and add burden to her. "
Now Xin'er and Feng Yinshi blushed with embarrassment, "No, sir, Xin'er never thought about it that way, but I just think that if you teach one, you are also teaching, and if you teach two, you are also teaching, like, like herding sheep."
"If that's the case, all the students who enter the school can become officials. Do you know that this gentleman is not in vain. He needs to be tutored one by one and point out their shortcomings. It is not only physically exhausting but also mentally tiring."
"Sir, I'm sorry, Xin'er really doesn't think so."
"Because you are used to it, you are used to your master's devotion. If you came here to ask the old man to help you go to the Fenglin Academy in Fucheng, the old man will not be angry, but what you want is to put your husband in. Bar?"
The two of them lowered their heads, speechless by what Mr. Wang said.
"For your master's sake, the old man didn't say anything harsh. If it were someone else, with the old man's temper, he would definitely scold him."
"I'm sorry sir, it's Xin'er who doesn't know how to be grateful, she was too reckless today."
"Do you want to go to Fenglin Academy?"
"Go, go, even if I spend all my dowry, I will let my husband go"
"Your dowry is endless, don't treat me like an old man or a fool."
Mr. Wang got up, went to the desk, picked up a pen, wrote a letter of introduction, and then found a letter, which was addressed to the dean of Fenglin College.
Then sealed the letter and handed it to Xin'er.
"Girl, when you get married, you have to think about your mother's family. It's not easy for your mother and your master. Your mother spent all the money in order to let you get married in a good way. Your master just built a house for you, and he has nothing in his hands." How much money, you go and see, the vegetable vat by the courtyard wall, in order to earn more money, she leads people to pickle vegetables every day, only for a good price in winter."
Xin'er's tears fell down, "Sir, I was wrong!"
“Before doing something, think twice before acting.”
"Yes, sir!"
Taking the letter, the young couple told their husband to leave and went to the front hall. Seeing their expressions, shopkeeper Lu knew that the matter had not been done, so Xin'er told Lu Sanniang about meeting her husband.
Lu Sanniang also felt her face was hot. She knew that she should not let her daughter go to the old man, it was too rash, and she was responsible for not stopping her.
"It's my mother's fault, I didn't think about it that much."
"Mr. is good. He didn't quarrel with me. He just explained the matter clearly. He is teaching his daughter how to behave. He also wrote a letter of introduction to her, asking Xianggong to study at Fenglin College in Fucheng."
"Oh, that's great. When my in-laws told me about this, I disagreed, because Mr. Wang is really old, and he became a teacher for the Qiao family because of your master's craftsmanship. Didn't you see He only teaches in the morning, and he has to rest in the afternoon?"
"Mother-in-law, my son-in-law is already very content, and I am causing trouble for Xin'er and mother-in-law."
"Go to Fenglin College and study hard, and strive to be admitted to Juren as soon as possible."
"Yes, mother-in-law!"
At noon, the kitchen cooked a table of dishes, Qiao Mai and the Yuan family got up to accompany them, and Mr. Wang and his wife ate in their yard.
Yuan Jiaqi is not even a boy now, and he didn't hide it from Feng Yinshi. However, Qiao Mai could see from the eyes of the son-in-law of the Feng family that he looked down on Yuan Jiaqi, probably because he felt that at such an advanced age, he didn't even have any fame. .
Although he concealed it well, Qiao Mai's perception is too powerful.
It's just an outsider, and she, Qiao Mai, doesn't mind, as long as Sister Lu and her family live well.
It doesn't matter whether you look down on me or look down on you, as long as you think up yourself.
After dinner, the Yuan family went back to their courtyard. Qiao Mai and shopkeeper Lu prepared a lot of gifts for them and asked them to take them back.
Shopkeeper Lu held Qiao Mai's hand, "Sister, thank you for your hard work."
"Why are you polite, we are good sisters, we don't talk about each other as a family."
"Ruxin did something wrong today."
"What's wrong?"
She went to ask her husband to ask him to accept Yin Shi as a student, but the husband refused and taught Xin'er a lot.
"Hehe, that's about it. You should come to me first. You're embarrassed to refuse Yinshi. I'm embarrassed. Mr. Wang didn't want to teach my husband and the others. This was forced by his granddaughter, and he will definitely not accept any more students." , he doesn’t care about favors or favors, if he doesn’t want to teach, he just doesn’t want to teach.”
"I also know. In September, when they came to the house to recognize the door, I hinted at them. If they don't listen, they insist on hitting the south wall. I can't help it."
"Don't worry about getting married, but she has a simple temperament and simple thinking. You have to teach her a little bit, so that she doesn't suffer from her husband's family and be led by the nose."
"I will take Ruyi to the county every month to see her."
"Go and rest, I have to pickle vegetables, there is still a lot of work to do."
"Shall I help you?"
"No need, you are not the one to do this job, let me do it."
