Chapter 72 Buying a Carriage

At first, everyone didn't believe that Aunt Jiang's family was rich, and she actually asked people to help collect mountain goods. Everyone was afraid that their time would be wasted and the trip would be in vain. However, with Lin Yousheng's guarantee, many people were willing to give it a try, but on the first day everyone

I didn't go to the mountains, I just picked some green leaves around.

It was only after I got the money that I suddenly realized. Touching the copper plate in my hand, I wanted to go to the mountains that night to pick more wild products. My enthusiasm was suddenly boosted, so I went to the mountains to work early every day, which was better than when I went to the fields.

Also be diligent.

"Where's the swallow? Why didn't you come today?" Jiang Yan asked casually.

Lin Yousheng smiled shyly, and the kindness in his eyes almost overflowed with substance: "I've made some coppers by doing this for you these past few days. Plus, I don't have to worry about the rice in the fields. Yanzi and I have also saved some money over the years.

, I thought of sending Xiaozizi to learn how to read and write."

He looked at Jiang Yan gratefully and continued: "I don't know many words, so I can't teach Xiaozizi a few words. Last time the scholar came to our village, Xiaozizi finally had some signs of wanting to study. Yanzi today

Just send him to Liufang Hall to have a look, and if possible, send him to a private school so that he can learn how to read."

Jiang Yan looked surprised. Xiaodouzi was only two years older than Xiaodouzi. Isn't it a bit early to send Xiaodouzi to study at such a young age? In this case, would she also send Xiaodouzi to study?

She tilted her head and looked at the little Douzi who was rubbing hay in the chicken coop. The little guy had grown some fat and looked soft and waxy. He squatted in the chicken coop as a little boy, enjoying playing alone.

The smile was crackling, and he finally looked more innocent and innocent as a child, without the cowardice and lifelessness before.

After thinking about it, Jiang Yan gave up the idea and let the little guy play for a few more years. After all, childhood is only a few years, and if you really have to study and take the imperial examination in this era, it will be a few years or even ten years of hardship.

read.

Seeing Grandma looking at him, Xiaodouzi's big dark eyes looked up in confusion, and his two little twitching little heads tilted slightly, revealing a shy and reserved smile, and the pink gums without teeth were clearly visible...

...Tilting the head to kill is so cute!

Jiang Yan only felt her heart surge... It was the overflow of maternal brilliance.

"Liufangtang? It's the private school where Yu Xuan is. In life, I also plan to send a few children to learn how to read and write. But it's not Liufangtang. It's a private school run by an old scholar. You can let Xiaozizi come with you."

Jiang Yan said, if she hadn't experienced what happened in Zhulin, maybe she wouldn't care about it. As for Yu Xuan, the duplicitous scumbag, she really didn't want Coyotito to go there and be taught bad things by then, but these things are also

It's hard to tell Lin Yousheng directly.

"I don't have any extravagant expectations that a few children can bring glory to our ancestors. I just want to avoid not being able to recognize a few of them and make people look down on me wherever I go. It's enough if I can recognize them."

Lin Yousheng smiled calmly: "What you are saying is that these children are not sensible and obedient. Now you have a job of making money. As long as you provide for them well, you may be able to earn a reputation as a talented scholar to support yourself.

It is better to have children at home than to provide for others."

Speaking of this, Jiang Yan could only smile awkwardly. That was because she wanted others to study, and it was not her. If she did, she would definitely give priority to her son.

"Your eldest nephew is a child after all. He is the only one in our village and is envied by many people. I don't expect Coyotito to have such a future. He only needs to know how to read. He can find a job in the town. He doesn't have to spend all day like us.

Running around in the fields.”

Jiang Yan sneered. She had never seen Lin Wenhan with her own eyes, but judging from her original memory, this man had bad conduct. He was so ambitious and his heart was higher than the sky. As the only golden phoenix that flew out of the village, among the stars

Amid the moon-holding and flattery, I have long lost my original intention of studying. I am afraid that no matter how diligent I am in my studies, my life of trying to become a scholar will be over.

"That's the reason. As long as the children have a good future, we can rest assured."

Jiang Yan calmly looked at the busy Lin family. Everyone has their own position. They are rushing to do all the big and small things in the family. They are hardworking and frugal. Nowadays, they are no longer as pale as before. Everyone has a face.

Everyone was filled with a faint smile, and their eyes were full of expectations and yearning for future life.

It was like a ray of light shone in the darkness, breaking away all the silence and despair, and everyone rushed towards this only hope regardless of their own safety.

"Mom, everything has been weighed, and the money has been given to a few uncles." Lin Bei held the money bag, carefully made a mark in his little book, and then walked towards Jiang Yan with a bright face.

Those who had received the money praised Lin Bei a few times, packed their backpacks and returned home, carrying the coins in their arms. Everyone was smiling and walking briskly.

"Not bad, not bad. Xiaobei's ability to settle accounts is getting better and better now. He might be able to work as an accountant in a big restaurant in the future." Lin Yousheng touched Lin Bei's head and felt more and more that what he said was good for their peasant family.

Speaking of which, being able to work as a waiter in a big restaurant is considered a blessing from one's ancestors.

Lin Bei shook his head: "That won't work. I want to study hard and come back as a scholar! I promised my mother, and I will definitely do it."

Lin Bei's eyes were firm. His mother said, don't say anything in advance if you are not sure, but he will definitely do it, no matter what the cost!

"That's even more awesome! Our village will be famous by then. You have to work hard. When you pass the exam, Uncle Lin will give you a big gift!"

Jiang Yan saw that Lin Yousheng not only did not suppress the child's delusions, but actually encouraged him, her impression of him became a little better.

She touched Lin Bei's head and said with a smile: "Then get ready in the next two days. Things at home are slowly getting back on track. Your brothers are all busy. I will send you to a private school."

As she spoke, she raised her eyes to look at Lin Yousheng and continued: "Yousheng, haven't you saved some money recently? I'm thinking of buying a carriage to send several children to study in the town. The distance is too far, and walking there every day is time-consuming and laborious.

, riding a bullock cart is a bit wasteful, anyway, every time in my family

I have to go to town to set up a stall every day, so I might as well buy a carriage, but I am not familiar with livestock. I don’t know if you have time tomorrow. I would like to ask you to help me choose it together. Then I will let a few children go together.

We also have company for each other when we go to school."

After laying the groundwork for a long time, Jiang Yan finally expressed her thoughts. She had never seen a horse a few times in her last life plus this life. She could choose the cattle and sheep to eat casually, but there was nothing she could do about the horses. Lin Yousheng had been a soldier, even if

I've never ridden a horse, but I've probably seen a lot of them, so I can ask him for help.

"The carriage is expensive, otherwise we should buy a mule. It's cheaper and can help with plowing the fields." Lin Yousheng frowned in distress. Although it was not spending his money, when he thought of the days before the Lin family, he subconsciously wanted to help Aunt Jiang.

Save more money.
