Shi's family jumped on their backs, and Shi Heng and Shi Jiang followed behind. They waited for the doctor to come, and after showing it to the old lady, he left the prescription for someone to take the medicine.
They said goodbye directly to their father and returned to the yard.
After all, there were piles of Pan's dowry collected from various courtyards in the yard, waiting for the brother and sister to dispose of it!
Shi Xulin had all the trouble because of the old lady's fainting and stroke. In addition, Shi Heng was now the person protected by the clan elders. If he didn't want to break away from the clan's support, even if he was dissatisfied with Shi Heng, he could only hold on to it.
The nose endured.
Now when Shi Heng proposed to go back to the courtyard, Shi Xulin turned his back and waved the brother and sister away.
"Brother, you are so awesome."
Shi Jiang looked at Shi Heng with bright eyes and said with admiration.
Hearing his sister's words, Shi Heng, who had always been mature, couldn't help it. His still slightly immature face turned red, he pursed his lips, and then raised them imperceptibly.
When he came back this time, he was indeed prepared.
Even when he went to the imperial examination this time, as soon as he came out, he hurried back without even looking at his ranking.
Shi Heng still has some confidence in his ability, and there is basically no problem in passing the exam.
However, he did not expect to be ranked first in the case, which was indeed a bit beyond his expectation.
After all, the examiner's personal preference is important.
No matter how good his article is, if the examiner doesn't like it, he will definitely not be the head of the case.
"Does my sister want to live with my eldest brother?"
When Shi Heng asked this question, he felt a little unsure.
After all, there is a ten-year age difference between him and his sister, so he doesn't know how to coax children.
"Really? That's great! Jiang Er and eldest brother will not be separated from now on."
Shi Jiang raised his head and smiled at Shi Heng. As he spoke, he reached out and grabbed Shi Heng's hand.
When a soft little hand grasped his palm, Shi Heng was stunned for a moment, then slowly tightened his grip.
This is...the sister that my mother tried her best to give birth to!
Although he lost his mother, he gained a soft and cute sister.
Shi Heng looked at Shi Jiang blankly, his eyes suddenly turning red.
Shi Jiang's attention was not on Shi Heng, but when he held Shi Heng's palm, he was suddenly hit.
Although Shi Heng is only sixteen years old, he is definitely over 1.75 meters tall, nearly 1.8 meters tall.
As for his body, he is only six years old, and his height is estimated to be only one meter at most.
When she stood aside, she felt that Shi Heng was quite tall. When she took Shi Heng's hand, Shi Jiang could only look up at the sky to see Shi Heng's face.
With his five-inch height, Shi Jiang's face couldn't help but stiffen.
I'm so angry, when will I stop looking at people like this with my head raised to the sky?
Seeing his sister looking up at him so stupidly, Shi Heng couldn't help it, squatted down and hugged Shi Jiang.
"Sister, are you tired? Brother, let's carry you back to the yard!"
Shi Jiang stared blankly from looking up to looking down, feeling like tens of thousands of alpacas rushing past in his heart.
Why was she not comforted at all and even wanted to hit someone?
After Shi Heng picked up his limp sister, he felt so good that he strode quickly back to the yard.
After arriving at the yard, he reluctantly put his sister down and let her rest for a while while he began to clean up his mother's dowry.
Some gold headscarves had been used by others, and Shi Heng didn't want to keep them as an eyesore, so he took them to the gold building to melt them, and re-made the most popular headscarves for his sister to wear later.
The same goes for those fabrics. Although some fabrics are very expensive, if you keep them for too long, they will become outdated. Take these fabrics to a silk and satin shop and sell them, and then buy the most popular fabrics at the moment to make them for your sister.
As for the furniture and the like, they are too bulky and not suitable for transporting over long distances to the academy.
Just find the nearest Zhuangzi and send these furniture to the warehouse there for storage.
He asked the attendant to put all the other precious and rare calligraphy and painting books in boxes so that they could be taken away.
As for the shops, some that were not very profitable were sold directly for money.
Replaced all the people in the shops that made money.
This way, it would save his grandmother and father from taking the opportunity to take the shops back after he left with his sister.
As for those Zhuangzi, ask them to send their account books to another place every year because of their annual income. They can just send them directly to the academy for him to check the account books.
Early the next morning, Shi Xulin did not see Shi Heng. Shi Xulin's personal attendant took the box that the uncle asked him to deliver and placed it in front of Shi Heng.
Shi Heng opened it and saw a thick stack of banknotes inside.
All in all, it was at least thirty to forty thousand taels, but Shi Heng sneered when he saw it.
Over the years, the profits earned by his mother's shop and Zhuangzi were probably many times that of the thirty or forty thousand taels. I wonder where Shi Xulin got the nerve to send such a small amount of money to a beggar?
However, Shi Heng also knew that Shifu's expenses were high, and although his mother's shop and Zhuangzi were profitable, they could not support a large family like Shifu.
Therefore, these banknotes are probably all the money Shi Xulin has on his body now.
"The uncle said that the young master is in urgent need, and there are only so many banknotes that the house can produce. Please let the young master know."
When the attendant saw Shi Heng opening the box and not speaking, he lowered his head and spoke to Shi Heng respectfully.
Shi Xulin indirectly wanted to make the relationship with his son less tense. After all, Shi Heng is now promising and has a bright future, so he naturally wants to add to the cake.
As time passed by, under Shi Heng's gaze, Shi Xulin's attendant couldn't help but start sweating on his forehead.
Shi Heng tapped his fingers, and it took him a long time to close the box containing the banknotes with a snap.
"Okay, tell dad, I understand."
The entourage withdrew with a sigh of relief. When he went back and told Shi Heng's reply to Shi Xulin, Shi Xulin felt aggrieved for a long time, but he had to admit that this son was more promising than him.
Thinking back, no matter what, I am still his biological father. Shi Heng has passed the imperial examination at this age. Isn't it easy to get a Jinshi?
Being able to become the biological father of a Jinshi made Shi Xulin feel even better.
Seeing Shi Xulin's happy expression, Aunt Tao was so angry that she almost twisted the handkerchief in her hand to pieces.
"Sir, my family gave all the banknotes to the eldest young master. Isn't it going to be a difficult life for the family in the future?"
After Aunt Tao lost her gentleness, what she said to Shi Xulin was full of sharpness and meanness.
When she thought about her brother's money, she became extremely angry.
Originally, she wanted to ask Shi Xulin privately to get some, but she didn't expect that before she could say anything, Shi Xulin actually packaged the banknotes and delivered them directly to Shi Heng's hands.
