Jiang Ren sent military rations for the last time, but when he returned, he caught a blizzard. The group rested in the inn for five or six days. When the snow stopped, he continued to rush home. When he arrived home, it was already the 20th day of the twelfth lunar month.

Old Mrs. Jiang is talking to Mrs. He, but she is actually waiting for news. Originally, Jiang Ren said that he would come back on the tenth day of the twelfth lunar month. As a result, let alone the 10th day of the 15th day, there is no sign of people. Isn't you in a hurry at home? Old Mrs. Jiang has no idea, but she is very anxious. He Qi is not very worried. Maybe it was because of the difficulties of youth. He Qi has always been very calm. Seeing that her mother-in-law and grandma talk at home, she advised the two old people to come to Mrs. He to talk to each other.

.Old Mrs. Jiang woke up from this. Yes, A Lie went with her. The old in-laws must be as worried! They only care about themselves, but they forgot their old in-laws, but they have to go to Kuankuan’s old in-laws. Unexpectedly, when they came to the county government, Mrs. He still looked as usual and couldn’t take it any more. When Mrs. Jiang tactfully mentioned the return date, Mrs. He smiled and said, “This, don’t worry, my in-laws. I was worried two days ago. The girl gave me a divination and said she was safe.”

Mrs. He was very convinced of the hexagrams of her own girl movies. In fact, it was not only Mrs. He who believed it. When Mrs. He said it, even Mrs. Jiang was relieved and let down her heart. Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "Since Zi Jin said this, there is nothing wrong with it."

Mrs. Jiang also said, "That's not true. I'm not very smart either. Why didn't I expect to ask Zijin to make a fortune? I'm worried at home." He Zijin's divination was so powerful that He Xiaoxian'er had a nickname in Bishui County. He had to queue up for ten taels of silver. This hexagram was not a divination every day. It was only on the 15th day of the month. The hexagram was very popular at that time, so it was really hard to find a divination.

Thinking of He Zijin's ability, Mrs. Jiang was very envious. Thinking that she had no daughter, she wanted to have a daughter and would not let her do anything, she asked her daughter to learn divination with Zijin, and she would have a job for her whole life.

He Xiaoxian's hexagram is put here, and the old ladies and wives are all at ease, and the younger generation is busy with their own efforts. He Zijin's rouge and water powder shop has launched New Year's clothing, which is very good.

The embroidery workshop of He Qi and the third girl also had a contour. Some of them took a job and went home to do it, some were apprentices from the embroidery workshop. The third girl also bought some □□ year old girls, and they didn’t call it anything, just to learn embroidery work in the embroidery workshop. The more the business is, the more busy it is. There are many things in business, and there are also the school entrance exams of the Chongyang Dabao in the year before the New Year. When it comes to the children’s schooling, the third girl had a headache and said to He Zijin, “I’m really angry that I didn’t sleep well all night. Chongyang is two years older than Dabao. Of course, this person is different from people. Some people are born smart. I don’t want to be a child prodigy in the Chongyang Dynasty. I’m happy that I don’t like to be a child prodigy in the class.

My sister doesn't know, this time I got the fifth place in the exam." The third girl said, pounding the corner of the table, and was angry, "If it were someone else, I wouldn't have to say that I was sorry for it. However, it was Chongyang, I didn't have any shame at all, and I was so terrified that I was so happy all day long. I asked him how he did so poorly, so he said that he had studied too much. He thought that the answer was good, and he said that Mr. Shao had no vision and did not see the benefits of his article. You don't know that I was so lazy that I was so angry that I gave him a feather duster several times, and I didn't cry. Your brother-in-law was still stopping him, and the boy ran away. Your brother-in-law was too, and he knew that he was spoiled! There was no majesty at all!"

The third girl gritted her teeth as she said.

He Zijin said, "Look at what my sister said, Chongyang is a broad mind. Can you cry if you fail the exam? Such a child is annoying."

"At least, they have shame." The third girl is so strong. When she was a child, her parents could beg their tribe members to join the He family as soon as they died. She knew to do a job and support herself since she was a child. People who were very strong would naturally ask for their children in this way.

He Zijin comforted the third girl and said, "The Double Ninth Festival has the benefits of Double Ninth Festival. I heard that the Double Ninth Festival is very good at practicing martial arts in Chongyang, and he is also good at body and generous. Both younger brothers and sisters like him. How come the third sister can't see so many benefits?"

In the third girl's heart, what's the benefit? Her son has loved eating meat since he was a child, so how can he be bad? The third girl said, "I'm worried, what will happen in the future."

"Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. What's the third sister worried about now? Chongyang has a good personality and will not be bad in the future."

The third girl sighed and said, "How can you know my difficulties? Aye can recite the Thousand Characters of the Book at this time, and it looks like the embryo of studying. Look at Dabao, it's not only a gentle person, but also a good study. Dabao's first place in the class this time was the first prize, and he got twenty taels of reward, just like when A Nian was studying. Chongyang was the eldest son of your brother-in-law and your brother-in-law, so he naturally hoped that he would make a fortune." The third girl was heart-wrenching and said, "You said, are you too stupid and your brother-in-law too good? Therefore, the child's schooling is not very successful." The third girl was so worried that she doubted herself, which shows that she was really worried.

"Sister, if you and your brother-in-law are still stupid, then there will be no smart people in the world." He Zijin said, "Children and children are different, each with their own strengths. Some are good at studying, some are good at practicing martial arts. Can this be distinguished from high and low? Look at the wealthy families in the imperial capital, the public servants and marquis's houses, and no family started with civil servants, and they were all given titles by military generals. I think Chongyang is a disgraceful person, and he will be a military officer in the future. Last time Ajie was promoted, did he praise Ajie for having a future?"

The third girl hurriedly said, "This general is to kill bandits and kill the enemy, and how can I give up this!"

He Zijin was funny, "I said that, my sister is thinking too far now. Children and grandchildren have their own blessings. Chongyang is nothing more than poor exams. I will worry about what my sister will be like."

"It's so worrying that I'm half a life." The third girl said, laughing, "With the child, my heart is all about them."

What made the third girl even more depressed was that she had tried this time on the child, but in fact she didn't hit her hard, and she didn't take it seriously. Chongyang didn't take it seriously at all. Chongyang's father saw this and threatened the child. When the child didn't obey, he said, "Do you want to taste your mother's feather duster?" It made the third girl very angry, thinking that her husband would be a good old man and she did all the evil people.

The third girl was so angry that she kept muttering, "I have to have a daughter. If I don't have a daughter, I will be so angry that you father and son."

Hu Wen smiled, "Don't, you are our big baby. After all, I won't live anymore."

The third girl spat lightly, "Don't talk nonsense." During the New Year, what's the immortal, and just came to life, even if her son was not very obedient, she couldn't bear to die. She had to watch her son become a child and hold her grandson!

Although he was depressed and He Zijin comforted her again, the third girl was much more relieved, but seeing the treasure who received the twenty taels of silver from the school reward, this was the reward that only the first place could be. Even if the third girl had a silver mountain, she was very envious of the twenty taels.

Dabao is a meticulous person. He never spends money or anything indiscriminately on weekdays, nor is he accustomed to being a casual person. Dabao has always been very planning. However, this time he received a reward from the school. Chongyang brought a group of young people to pay his respects. Dabao was not rude and went to Yipinzhai to treat guests generously, and invited Brother Chongyang and his younger brothers and sisters to eat delicious food. Order whatever food is, and the expenses are all his.

The eldest treasure wants to treat the guests, and the elders go with their children to play. However, the children are still young and don’t ask them to eat outside. They ask them to eat at home, so as to avoid the chicken bones and fish bones being stuck.

Therefore, when Jiang Ren Ali came back, the children were not at home and went to Yipinzhai to order food.

When Jiang Ren heard that his son had received the reward from the school, he said happily, "This is really a smoke from the ancestral grave. I couldn't study at that time. Dabao was good at studying. It was the wife's glory." Jiang Ren thought he was not a student, but the Taoist brother-in-law, who was not popular in the Yue family, liked to study. His nephew is like his uncle, and his son is better than his brother-in-law in studying.

Old Mrs. Jiang smiled and said, "I say that too."

Mrs. Jiang wanted to emphasize the excellence of her own genes and quickly said, "You were not stupid at that time, but you just couldn't concentrate on studying. If you study hard, you would be fine."

Jiang Ren held back and said to his mother, "You are really a child, your own family." He asked his wife, "Where is the big treasure? Why is the second treasure not at home?" His son did well in the exam, and he just rewarded his son with one or two.

He Qi said, "Dabao said that we will treat you tomorrow. Today, the children will go to Yipinzhai to set the menu. Please order the menu and send it to Yipinzhai tomorrow."

Jiang Renzhi said, "It's rare to see an iron rooster plucking her feathers."

He Qi pushed her husband and said with a smile, "I'm just talking nonsense, Dabao is just spending money and not stingy."

Jiang Ren smiled, "When Dabao comes back, I have to tell him, why are you treating the young and not the old, so we won't invite you."

He Qi refused to laugh, "You said that, Dabao feels sorry for the silver."

Jiang Ren asked how he did the Chongyang exam again, and He Qi hurriedly said, "Don't mention this. I didn't do well in Chongyang exam, which made my third sister very angry and even beat Chongyang."

"What's wrong? Isn't it just an exam? I couldn't finish school when I was a child." Jiang Ren said, "I like the child of Chongyang, who is good-natured and funny."

"I didn't try hard, I just hit it a few times."

"You women's family is just a narrow heart, and there are all roads that cannot be left. Could it be that Chengdu wants to be an official?"

He Qi said, "As parents, who don't expect their children to make a fortune? If you are not an official, you will have the ability to be an official. Otherwise, even if you do business, you must have a backer."

Jiang Ren sighed, "Not talking about doing business, being an official is not as easy as you think. You must have a backer."

Putting these things behind his mind, Jiang Ren thought about how to rob his son.

When Dabao returned home, he was very happy to see his father coming back. He first gave him a gift and asked his father how he delayed his journey. He was long and short, and he was so filial. But when his father asked him to treat him to a bowl of water, Dabao was a little dumbfounded. It was not just heartbreaking! When he met his father, who could not live a life, Dabao felt so heartbroken.

Dabao emphasized, "It is not just that we children are having fun without treating each other."

How could Dabao compare to his father? His father shook his head, "It's okay, we just have fun. You don't have to order food again. Just call the top-quality tables in Yipinzhai. There is one table in our house, one table in your aunt Zijin's house, and one table in your third aunt's house."

When Dabao heard that there were three more tables waiting for the table, he thrust in pain and his face froze. Seeing his father's excitement, Dabao said, "Well, Brother Chongyang and I are eating at our house. By this calculation, Aunt Zijin's family is only left, Aunt Zijin, Uncle Jiang, Uncle A Lie, and Great-grandmother of the He family. We have six fathers and mothers, grandfathers and great-grandmothers, and her third aunt's family is the only one who can eat those dishes. It's so wasteful."

"It's okay, I can't eat it, so let's keep it for the next meal." Jiang Ren said one after another, causing his son's lung pain.

Dabao is worthy of being the top student in the class, and his mind is very quick. Judging from his father's thick face, he still doesn't know how to plan, so he won't be able to treat him. Dabao said, "It's better to invite all the elders to our house for dinner, which is so lively." In this way, he can order two seats at most, and he can save a seat.

Jiang Ren was about to be happy and didn't make things difficult for his son. He thought, "That's OK, you can do it. Anyway, I'll have to have a good meal tomorrow."

Dabao hurriedly sent someone to Yipinzhai to book two tables to wait for the table, and went to his aunt's house to invite someone to dinner tomorrow. He Zijin was curious, "Why do we even have to invite him?"

Dabao didn't say that his father forced him to invite him, but tried to show a sincere face that was not very distressed by silver, and said, "I think I can't just invite Brother Chongyang and the others, but also invite the elders to have fun together. The table has been settled. Aunt, you, your uncle, great-grandmother, and Uncle A Lie, you will definitely have to get over tomorrow."

He Zijin happily agreed, "Yes, I won't be having lunch tomorrow, I'll go to your house to have it."

Dabao talked for a while and went to Chongyang’s house to invite the third girl Hu Wen. Hu Wen smiled and said, “If your father invites me, I may not be able to give me a favor. Dabao treats me, he must go.”

Dabao invited everyone, so he went home and told his mother that he would help arrange the guest house. Jiang Ren said, "Little little man, he's quite particular."

Dabao said, "Of course you have to do it well." He spent all his money, so he couldn't call it a white flower.

When Dabao treats guests, the elders praised them and praised them. They all said that Dabao is good at studying and is sensible. When he gets money, he still wants to invite his elders to dinner. Because he has received many praises, Dabao feels better that he feels sorry for money.

When the guests were finished, Yipinzhai settled the account. In fact, the top-notch table was only two taels of silver. Dabao invited three tables and spent less than five taels in total. The main reason was that their table was all the dishes they ordered, and the children did not spend much money. There were still fifteen taels left in the school reward. Dabao was very happy and added a sum to his small account book and ordered the silver liang in his silver box again, and locked the silver box carefully. Dabao thought that studying was really a good deal. The silver he earned from studying was much higher than the New Year money he received during the New Year.
