MTL - Rebirth Married The Control Group Fulang-Chapter 104
In mid-March, after the construction of the peasant farmhouses was completed, they all moved out of the guesthouses to start fires, and for a while there were several puffs of cooking smoke in the village.
The farm laborers also acted on their word and sent their children to the Zhang family to work. Overnight, the Zhang family had four or five more people who could shout and do things.
The older ones are twelve or thirteen, and the younger ones are in their teens. They are the age at which they can arrange errands.
Xu He handed over Huangqi and Licorice to learn the rules, and he and Zhang Fangyuan were still busy with moving into the new house.
The couple considered that since the farm laborers had already settled down and plowed the land, they could move to the city with peace of mind.
In fact, you can live in both the village and the city. There are a lot of properties here, and you will definitely have to come back to check it often. However, the two of them are not worried when they go to the city. After all, the Zhang family is more than just the two of them. Look after the home.
"At this time, I won't move to the city with the two of you. I'm used to living in the village. Besides, I'm thinking about the business of the inn and tea shed."
Zhang Shiyue helped organize the clothes and toys of the two children. It was reasonable for the couple to let her go to the city to live and enjoy themselves, but after thinking about it, she still wanted to stay in the village.
"It's enough to sit idle at home in the village, and you can find something to do when you go out. Pull a handful of grass in the field, **** half of the field, and you are surrounded by familiar folks. The days are easy to pass." Zhang Shiyue said: "Xiao'e I have it too, and when the month is old, I want to take care of it, the village is closer than the city."
Zhang Fangyuan wanted to persuade him a few more words, but Xu He stopped him: "Let's do what the second aunt wants. It's not too far from the city to the village, and it's not uncommon."
He can understand Zhang Shiyue very well. People are reluctant to leave their roots when they are old, and they are not as good at adapting to the new environment as young people. Besides, the child is in the village, so he is willing to move.
Zhang Fangyuan had no choice but to agree.
After the house was tidied up, the couple thought about moving to the city as soon as possible, so that they could confirm the child's teacher as soon as possible. They didn't leave first, but a rare visitor came.
"I heard that Ruijin and Ruili wanted to find Teacher Kaimeng. The two of you haven't found a suitable one yet, so you didn't let Shaochun tell you. After all, you are brothers-in-law and relatives. You should help each other."
Zhang Fangyuan asked Xu He to pour tea, sent the people out, and stayed alone to talk to Fei Xiucai, who had been proud of the recent spring breeze.
It's not that he's too petty to see his wife talk to Fei Lian, it's that he's even more pretentious and boastful if he wants to keep Xu He.
"We've thought about this too. The children taught by Fei Xiucai are all older, and the two children are still young. I'm afraid it will take more trouble to discipline them. I'm afraid Fei Xiucai will be too busy, so I'd better go to the city. It would be more appropriate to ask a gentleman, so that Brother He and I can feel at ease."
Fei Lian said: "How come, I treat all students equally and teach them carefully, how can I be too busy and tired to be a teacher."
"I know that you all admire the gentlemen in the city, and your thoughts are solidified. In fact, the gentlemen in the city do not necessarily teach good children, but blindly accept extremely high rites. In fact, the literary talent is only mediocre. You have never been deceived by yourself. Just people who read."
After speaking, Fei Lian paused for a moment and then smiled slightly: "Not long ago, the school in our village also produced a scholar. For this reason, what matters is not the location, but the selection of a good teacher."
Zhang Fangyuan took a sip of tea, but he didn't know whether this person wanted to accept Ruijin Ruili as a student, or he wanted to show off that a student in his school had passed the examination of scholar.
But no matter how much he brags about himself and belittles the gentlemen in the city, Zhang Fangyuan can't change his mind and send his child to Fei's school to study. The idea in my heart was calculated.
If you have taught two children, then you are a teacher. If you want to ask for help with something in the future, how can you be ashamed to shirk it.
Zhang Fangyuan guessed that it would be impossible for Fei Lian to come to talk to him about these things if he pretended to be aloof, and it was Fei's mother who coaxed him to come here.
"I don't ask Ruijin to be able to take the imperial examination to become an official in the future, as long as he can read and write, it's not just because he wants to take the husband in the city to study in the city, but because his business is in the city, so he can take care of it when he moves there. , and find a husband for the child in the city by the way, if you stay in the village and run back and forth, it will be tiring."
Hearing this, Fei Lian put away his arrogance, knowing that his family business is not as good as that of the Zhang family, and now there are two big houses in the village and the city, with a bunch of servants under him, and so many farm laborers Even the landlords in this village can't compare with him. In terms of financial resources, who in the surrounding villages can compare with Zhang Fangyuan.
However, Fei Lian was still able to take it easy in his heart. He always believed that scholars, farmers, businessmen, no matter how rich they are, they are still low-level merchants, and there is still an insurmountable gap between them and the scholarly families who preach and work like them. It will be a matter of time to teach your son well and become an official through the imperial examination as soon as possible, and he will be better than his Zhang family.
Seeing that Zhang Fangyuan had no intention of letting go, he cupped his hands, completely refraining from the obedient look of the villagers: "The Zhang family's business is booming, but I have to advise that the children's studies are also important."
Without further words, Fei Lian said, "Farewell."
Zhang Fangyuan didn't keep anyone, he never stood up and let him go.
Only then did Xu He come into the room: "Second sister often comes here, but she doesn't see her mentioning that the two children should go to Fei's house to study. Instead, she said that our family will be fine now, and we should go to the city to invite famous teachers to teach. Fei Lian invited me here. I'm afraid they came here in collusion with Lady Fei."
"I think so too."
The Zhang family has the most wealth and status in the village. No one can be envious. Relatives who are eight poles away want to come and seek marriage. It's impossible to be a fool at home.
The couple ignored Fei Lian's sudden visit and continued to take care of the house.
Two days later, an auspicious day was chosen, and the couple left Huangqi and two farmhand children to work in the old house, and took licorice and the remaining servants to the new house in the city.
Originally, it was also arranged to buy all the things at the other end, but on the day of the move, three or two carts of luggage were installed, and only the children's things were packed in two carts.
With a servant, it is actually mighty.
The two children were running around in the carriage, climbing from the left to the right, the curtains at both ends were rolled up, the official road was full of foliage after the sun was clear, the birds were singing and the flowers were fragrant, and the depression in the winter was changed, and the spirit of the children Both are better than winter.
It's just getting bigger and bigger, and it's getting more and more annoying.
"Come and sit down, don't fall!"
Xu He circled this, and ran away from that, brother can still say it, brother Xiao Li can't control it at all, he slept with the child's father a little late yesterday, and he has a headache from the child's dancing.
He opened the curtain, and said to the majestic human on the horse in front: "You will hide and ride outside, and your son doesn't care about it!"
Zhang Fangyuan pulled the horse to the curtain, and poked the face of the little guy lying on the window: "Brother Li is naughty again and made your little dad angry, come out and dad will take you to ride the horse."
"I don't want it, Brother Li wants to eat fruit in the carriage with Daddy."
"Still eating? You are two catties heavier than your brother."
"Eat it, don't want daddy."
Zhang Fangyuan was helpless, and raised his eyebrows at the person behind: "Look, it's not that I don't take it, it's that I don't want me."
"Arguing with the child every day, why should I want you?" Xu He glared at him, and Zhang Fangyuan looked at Ruijin, who was still quite well-behaved: "Brother, do you want to ride a horse?"
The taciturn Ruijin stood up: "Yes!"
"It's better to be older brother, don't dislike daddy."
Zhang Fangyuan reached out and picked up the little boy on the horse, put it in front of him and put it in his arms. The horse was tall, and sitting in the carriage had a better view. Ruijin's eyes began to shine.
"Are you afraid?"
Zhang Fangyuan buried his head and kissed Ruijin's face. The child was not afraid at all, but urged to run. Seeing that there were no carriages on the left and right official roads, Zhang Fangyuan drove away in a gallop. Xu He only saw his father and son The silhouette of the two in the wind.
He took a long breath: "Father and son!" It would be better to put the child in front of him and relax.
After a lot of trouble along the way, the chariots and horses entered the city.
Xu He hadn't brought his two children to the city since autumn last year, and spent most of the year at home. Now it's like a runaway pony, it can't stop for a moment, and its physical strength is very good. It's been a few hours of fun on the road and now it doesn't feel tired.
But I'm going to move to a new home, the environment is unfamiliar and I still have a little restraint, not as happy as I was in the village, and I'm quite honest with the adults.
This end of Qingshan Lane is quiet, and the terrain is wide. The houses are not as compact as in the downtown area. One house is close to another house, but there is a distance of one or two feet between the houses, which is even closer on weekdays. For peace.
They have a lot of cars and horses, parked outside and moving in and out, making a lot of noise.
The door next to the house creaked and a small opening was cracked, and then a head poked out, followed by the voice of a maid calling for the son.
The couple moved here to visit their neighbors, and saw that the door was opened just to say hello, but before he could speak, they heard a soft voice coming from the crack of the door: "Uncle."
Zhang Fangyuan sounded a little familiar, and Xu He also gave him a surprised look. Brother Li, who was standing with his legs next to each other, almost turned his head to the next door when he heard the movement.
"It's you?"
Zhang Fangyuan didn't recognize who it was at first glance, but after a closer look, he realized that it was the child he had met on the official road when he went to the city. He was in the courtyard of the high gate, and he was dressed in brocade clothes. If it wasn't for the fair and lovely child, he would have been a little impressed, and he really didn't know who it was.
"Your family lives here?"
Luo Yuxing nodded, and said in a low voice, "Brother Xing and grandfather live here."
Zhang Fangyuan couldn't help but glanced at the mansion: "That's really a coincidence, I will go to visit your grandfather after uncle tidies up. What's your name?"
The child replied: "Luo Yuxing."
"Little Star."
Zhang Fangyuan read aloud and waved to him kindly.
Only then did he turn around and go back to continue unloading the luggage, and talked to Xu He about the situation when he met his grandfather and grandson when he went to the city.
Brother Xing was not in a hurry to go into the house with the maid, so he quietly watched the Zhang family's bustling moving things through the crack of the door, and watched the four members of the Zhang family talking and laughing, which was even worse in comparison. The originally quiet Luo family was very deserted, and even Luo Yuxing was extremely pitiful.
"My father brought a red-tailed carp from the village and said he wanted to keep it in the pond at home. My brother also caught tadpoles for me. Do you have any at home?"
Luo Yuxing was startled by the sudden voice.
While Zhang Fangyuan was busy with Xu He, Brother Xiao Li sneaked up to the door of Luo's house, tilting his head and proudly introducing his luggage.
Luo Yuxing looked at the little brother who was very familiar with him when he squeezed in front of the door, and stepped back slightly, but did not run away.
He felt that the younger brother who was taller than him seemed to be showing off, and it sounded a little sad, so he lowered his eyes unavoidably.
There is a big pond and big carp at home, but there are no carp that my father brought from the village, and no small tadpoles that my brother helped catch.
Thinking of this, his eyes were a little red, and he was about to cry.
"Don't you have one at home?"
Luo Yuxing nodded.
"Then do you want to come to my house to play?" Brother Xiaoli pointed to Ruijin who was standing on the edge of the gate in the distance, with his hands behind his back like a little adult who was staring at the buddy doing things: "I'll let my brother share A little for you."
Luo Yuxing glanced at the gate of Zhang's house several times, and wanted to go there, but he still said softly: "I haven't finished reading the words that my grandfather told me today. I will come to you when I know it well and read it to my grandfather. ?"
Brother Xiaoli wondered why someone went to school earlier than his brother.
"OK then."
Although it was a bit unpleasant to be rejected, but seeing Luo Yuxing, who was pitiful like the white and fat snow dolls that his father piled up last winter, he pinched Luo Yuxing's face like his rough and big father, and it turned out that Luo Yuxing's face was really It was too soft and comfortable, so he used both hands.
Luo Yuxing's face was rubbed back and forth, although Brother Li's hands were soft, and it didn't hurt to pinch his face, but it was uncomfortable to move it like being kneaded dough, but he didn't dare to scream, frowning, Worried that brother Xiaoli would be angry and wouldn't let him play at home.
"If you don't go back, the tadpoles will die of thirst!"
Ruijin really couldn't stand it anymore, and went to tear Brother Li away, making the already pitiful Luo Yuxing even more pitiful after being rubbed red in the face.
He held Brother Li with one hand, took a handful of wrapped candy from his pocket and handed it to Luo Yuxing, and then dragged his restless brother away.
Luo Yuxing looked at the same candy in his hand as the one given by his uncle before, and at the two brothers who had left, his eyes moved.
"Ah, my brother gave all my candy to Brother Xiaoxing! Bad brother!"
Ruijin was serious: "Who told you to bully people everywhere, bully other children in the village, and still do the same when you come to the city."
"If it continues like this in the future, I won't share any of my fruits with you, and I'll eat all of your fruits."
