Chapter 1090 Scared by the mother-in-law
"The first point is whether the question bank prepared by you will appear in the county examination, government examination, and college examination. The reason why you prepare with both hands is because the invigilator and question maker are not sure yet, and he is not sure. In addition to
Looking at the results of the seventh brother in the first county examination, we also need to see who invigilated the exam and whose questions were used. Everyone has their own habit of setting questions. If the teacher is not familiar with someone, then the difficulty will be higher.
When it's old enough, seventh brother won't have to try again and come back directly, otherwise it will be an opportunity."
Zhu Si and Zhu Wu nodded: "It turns out that the knowledge in the imperial examination is so great. I thought that as long as I study hard and know how to read, it will be enough. It actually depends on the year it was taken and who asked the questions."
Zhu San laughed: "Do you think those scholars don't study hard? There are many people who work hard, and there are many talented people. Why do some people always fail to pass the exam? It's not that some people have no talent, but their answers didn't reach the examiner's point.
In my heart, I don’t allow others to have preferences for radish and cabbage?”
"Isn't that a bit bullying me?" Zhu Si said, "Normally, if we, the poor ones, can know the officials, how can we still sit here? If we don't even know them, how can we know the examiner's preferences?"
Zhu San took a deep look at him and said: "So, it is very important to choose a gentleman who teaches and teaches. Lao Qi is lucky. Although the gentleman he met is not eye-catching, his former classmates have connections and they also value me. How much?
I have given some care. You just need to listen to this matter. Don’t ask more about anything else, lest you spill the beans."
"Where can we ask about this matter? We know it every day in the field, what do we know?" Zhu Wu sighed, "I didn't expect that among our brothers, Lao Qi is really lucky. My mother originally wanted to send him to a big book school.
In the end, they didn’t like the seventh brother, so they had to choose the one who was a little bit worse. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise, and I got the attention of my husband. Maybe in the future, we brothers will really have to rely on the seventh brother’s blessing."
The brothers really didn't expect this.
Ever since he was a child, everyone knew that Zhu Qi was a "fool" and a drag on the family.
When I was naive, I used to dislike him, but as I grew older, I felt sorry for this brother. They also discussed privately how they would arrange for their seventh brother when their parents grow old.
After all, everyone knows the situation at home. With such a small amount of land, there is simply not enough space for a few brothers. It is not enough to support his own wife and children. Who can bear the burden of bringing along a stupid seventh brother?
It is also because of this that the brothers basically get married relatively early, but they are afraid that it will be delayed until the girl is older and it is difficult to coax them.
Who would have thought that after so many years, Lao Qi, who had been stupid for many years, would actually become a top student in reading?
When the three of them talked about it, they couldn't help but sigh.
"So, no one can predict this matter in life until it comes to the end."
The night grew darker and darker along with Zhu San's sighing voice.
On the other side, Mrs. Liu finished her day's work and returned to the house.
She noticed that something was wrong with Zhu Er's expression, and he looked at her as if he was looking at something.
"What's wrong?" Mrs. Liu recalled that in the past few days, she had been very honest and had done nothing.
Zhu Er waved his hand and asked her to sit closer.
"What happened?"
"Shh..." Zhu Er asked her to whisper.
Ms. Liu was confused.
When she lowered her head and got closer, she heard Zhu Er whisper: "Last time, didn't you say that your mother-in-law picked up some medicine for you? Have you taken it?"
"No," Ms. Liu was startled, quickly looked around, and said, "Didn't I tell you, one time when I was preparing to cook on the stove, my mother caught me. She wouldn't let me do it.
This kind of thing, my mother said she couldn’t be in a hurry to have a baby..."
Liu's memory of being scolded severely by Ye Yuran that time was still fresh in her mind.
She never knew that her mother-in-law actually cared about this kind of thing, and would rather keep her pregnant than let her take it. It was as if if she took the medicine her mother picked up, it would poison the children and grandchildren of the Zhu family.
"Mother said that?" Zhu Er was stunned for a moment, "How did you let mother see it? Why didn't you know to be more careful?"
"You think I don't want to be careful," Ms. Liu said, a little unconvinced, "The new house had not been built yet, and everyone had a pot to eat. Who touched the stove or not, and who didn't keep an eye on it? I burned the stove with my front foot, and others followed behind me.
My mother complained and I was caught in the act..."
"Who is so boring to complain like this?" Zhu Er felt aggrieved upon hearing this.
If you don't let them take medicine, doesn't that prevent them from having children?
Normally he wasn't in a hurry, only Mrs. Liu was anxious, but today when he saw his eldest brother talking to his third child about the child, he suddenly became envious. How great would it be if he also had a child?
"How do I know this? There are only a few people in the family, who else is there besides them?" Ms. Liu said with a look of disgust, "After all, are you afraid that I will eat secretly and eat alone? Haha! I really think you, the old Zhu family,
What can you do to become fat in one bite?"
"Isn't this too much?"
"When I told you before, didn't you also say that I thought too much? Now you know, right? None of the women your brothers married is a fuel-efficient lamp. We are the ones who are more honest and are bullied.
Damn it..." Ms. Liu immediately complained.
She told all the grievances she usually suffered, as well as Ye Yuran's partiality towards each room.
In her eyes, Ye Yuran is a "big devil of partiality". Zhu Da is his son, and he will provide for the old couple in the future. Even though Ye Yuran didn't say it, there was no time when there were any important things that Liu was not allowed to do.
Show your face?
The third wife lost her mother-in-law, but Zhu San was so capable that she followed Zhu Qi to the town. She didn't have to work in the fields and could come back every month to get money. Wouldn't it be happy?
There is that guy named Li in the fourth room. That woman is sharp-tongued and will please her mother-in-law. Otherwise, her mother-in-law will hand over the family business to her?
Even in the fifth house, after Mrs. Lin married into the Zhu family, she lost a child and lost her natal family. Didn’t her mother-in-law say nothing and even helped raise two unmarried girls from her natal family?
Look, every room has its advantages, so their second room doesn’t get any benefits at all.
Zhu Er: "..."
——After listening to his mother-in-law’s analysis, it seems to be true!
It's just that it's normal for his mother to like a big house. These days, which family doesn't value a big house?
The eldest brother is the eldest son, and the eldest sister-in-law is the eldest sister-in-law. If there is any important matter, it is the eldest brother and the eldest sister-in-law who come forward, which is normal.
The third brother will go to town because he has no mother-in-law and no worries.
The fourth brother did have some luck. He married a lovable woman. His mother liked him, but there was nothing he could do about it. And he had to admit that his wife knew how to do business.
When they arrived, they saw that their family had been doing business since last year, and no one came to look for trouble, which is enough to illustrate Li's methods.
As for Lao Wu...
Zhu Er didn't have a deep impression of Lao Wu's mother-in-law. He just felt that this woman's mother-in-law was too behind and had no idea how Lao Wu chose her in the first place.
It is said that women are realistic. In fact, men are more realistic than women. When choosing a wife, they will consider the other person's natal family. If there is help, it is better. If not, it cannot be a hindrance.
In Zhu Er's view, among the brothers who married their wives, the one who failed most was not the third brother who had lost his mother-in-law, but the fifth brother. Although the third brother became a widower, he did not have the burden of children and was still young, so he could complete the marriage again.
Not a problem.
On the contrary, it is the fifth child who has married such a drag and cannot get rid of him. This is the headache.
