Qiao Le has lived a prosperous life since he was a child, and his family can be considered wealthy. He has read poetry and books since he was a child. He can recognize all the Chinese characters at the age of three. He can read and recite many books at the age of seven. He is a child student at the age of twelve and a scholar at the age of fourteen.

, and is at the top of the list every time. Although he is not as good as those prodigies who passed the scholar examination at the age of eleven or twelve, he is still a prodigy that everyone talks about.

At that time, the Qiao family was extremely famous, and its reputation even spread to several counties. If he could pass the exam all the way, it would not be impossible to win the top prize according to his habit of ranking first.

At that time, Qiao Le was proud, dignified, and arrogant in every gesture. Coupled with his overly pretty appearance, he attracted the attention of many wealthy people. At that time, he was like the bright moon in the sky, attracted by the stars all over the sky.

He looked up, but he was young and frivolous and didn't know how to avoid the edge temporarily, which caused him to offend a lot of people.

Things happened one after another at Qiao's shop. He was ambushed and framed on his way to take the exam, and one of his legs was broken. He finally escaped with great difficulty. When he returned home, his family fell into decline, and his parents were depressed. Eventually, they both passed away. He also suffered from this.

I gave up on the idea of ​​scientific research.

Genius fell to the low end, and his salary dropped from heaven to earth. It was not only the great changes in his family, but also the cynicism and verbal criticism from people around him that made him despair for a time. At first, he tried to teach and educate people with a wealth of economic literature. At that time, being a gentleman was not only

Just for life, it was also the only communication he had with the past ten years of studying hard, but everything was not his choice. The reality forced him to bow his head, and in the end he ended up in such an embarrassing end.

Even if the trees are beautiful in the forest, the wind will destroy them. This is exactly what he said.

"Mr. Qiao, are you willing?" Jiang Yan smiled at him: "There is no private school in Linjia Village, so I hired Mr. Qiao to be a private tutor for several children in my family. I believe in his knowledge, but I am afraid that he will dislike him.

Our family is simple and simple, after all, I am just a country widow."

"No! How could it be possible? I wouldn't dislike it!" Qiao Le explained in a panic, speaking awkwardly in a hurry: "Aunt Jiang doesn't think that I am disabled and have a poor reputation, so how can I dislike it?"

"That's good, as long as Mr. Qiao agrees." Jiang Yan blinked and continued: "In that case, I will give you two taels of silver a month. If possible, you can live and eat in our Linjia Village, and those who study at home can

Not many, there are only two children who want to take the imperial examination, the others just need to read and learn some principles."

"I am a woman with several children in the village. It is not easy for my husband to stay at home. When the time comes, I will find a house for him to live in the village, and I will also arrange an open space for him to teach..."

Qiao Le's lips were slightly opened in shock, and he didn't know why he suddenly made up his mind. Seeing Aunt Jiang being serious and seriously arranging all the matters for him, he didn't know how to interrupt for a while, and even felt that Aunt Jiang was a bit naughty like this.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Jiang Yan asked, "What's wrong? Is the monthly payment too little?"

Qiao Le shook his head. It was difficult to get off the tiger, so he had to say: "Thank you Aunt Jiang. There is a lot of silver in the moon. I have more."

He is not worried about not being able to teach the Lin family well. He still has confidence in himself, not to mention money. The monthly salary he negotiated at the current medical clinic is only 500 yuan. This is because he is a scholar and has seen

A lot of medical skills can only provide him with a salary, so the money given by Aunt Jiang is more than enough for him.

He didn't have much obsession with money. When he was a child, his family was rich and there was no shortage of money. Later, his family fell into decline. Although his life plummeted, his parents still had some foundation and left a store for him in the town and opened a bookstore.

, he could barely make ends meet. If he hadn't offended someone some time ago and closed the bookstore, he would have been living in this store for the rest of his life.

"Mr. Qiao, do you want to go back to Linjia Village with me today?"

Qiao Le shook his head. Even if he agreed to work as a personal trainer at Aunt Jiang's house, he still had to take care of the affairs at the medical clinic first: "In a few days, I have some things to do at the Huichun Hall, and I won't be able to go there until three days at the earliest."

"No problem, our village has cars coming to Fang County to deliver things in the past few days. I will ask them to take you back in three days. It just so happens that I can decorate the village in the past few days so that I can have a place when you come.

live."

Qiao Le smiled and thanked her, and saluted Jiang Yan. At that moment, the fleeing couple came out and apologized profusely to Qiao Le.

Jiang Yan left enough money, at least enough to cure the child's smallpox. The couple planned to find a temporary job in the town. During the day, they would go to work, and the child would stay at the Huichun Hall. At night, they would stay at the Huichun Hall.

Seeing that they had already discussed the plan to build a floor for the woodshed in the backyard, Jiang Yan resigned.

Because of the wasted time, the four of them could not continue shopping. The distance from the county town to Linjia Village was still quite far. In order to go back before dark, they had to start early.

On the way back, Jiang Yan calculated her money. The expenses during this period plus the money earned from selling wine left a total of more than 3,900 taels. She bought two hills today, adding up to more than 600 acres of land.

, and the additional 30 acres of paddy field I bought, which cost 2,300 taels. Now I still have more than 1,000 taels left, which is more than enough to build a new house. Once the late rice is planted, we can make arrangements.

Da da da

The carriage drove into Linjia Village. It was a lively time in the village. The sunset crept across the entire horizon. The villagers who had been working in the fields for a day were staggering back to the village carrying hoes. There were many people walking on the road, and the carriage moved slowly.

, those who know him will also say hello to Lao Wu.

During this period, Lao Wu traveled frequently in the village. In addition to planting peppers and harvesting mountain products, the last time he killed a wolf in the village made him famous among a group of men of similar age. For a time, he became close to the village. As long as he is familiar with

Some of them would shout at him enthusiastically.

"Mom, you are back. The food is ready. The goats have produced a lot of milk in the past two days. I boiled some and put it in the well to calm down. Xiaomeng just went to get it. You can drink more later."

When they arrived at Lin's house, Wang Jinhua immediately came out with a shallow smile, gentle and reserved. She wiped her hands on her apron and then took the medicinal materials bought by Jiang Yan.

Jiang Yan smiled and looked at her eldest daughter-in-law who was diligent and quick. She took out two boxes of skin care cream and two boxes of lip balm from her arms, which she bought at the rouge shop.

"These two boxes are for facial moisturizer. Apply a little bit after washing your face in the morning and evening, and your face will not be so dry. These two small red boxes are for lip balm. You and Xiao Meng have one set each."

Jiang Yan handed it to her. Both daughters-in-law grew up in the countryside. Their skin was dark and rough. They had been exposed to the sun all day and night in the past few days. Their skin was dry and their lips were covered with layers of dead skin. She herself was older.
