MTL - Self-cultivation of Male Supporting Role-Chapter 71 Zoom in

Mrs. Li glared at Shi Yan fiercely, rolled her eyes, wiped her tears with her cuffs, and cried out in a sad voice: "Iron egg, are you confused? Of course I'm your mother!

Could it be that because of your father's affairs, you were stimulated and lost your mind? My poor boy! Get up, don't do this! If you fall, how can your mother live! "

As he said that, he was about to reach out to help Shi Yan get up.

Shi Yan pushed away Madam Li's hand indifferently but could not refuse. Madam Li's performance was suddenly interrupted, and the sudden rejection of her son, who had been pinched by her, made her unable to react for a while.

Shi Yan kowtowed to the elders of the clan who were sitting above him, kneeling upright on the ground, and his voice was clear enough for everyone to hear.

"Although Shi Yan has an unpleasant personality, a stupid mouth, and can't say nice things to please people, but after living in a village for so many years, he still has some credibility, right?"

The eldest Seventh Uncle nodded, "Naturally, you have a righteous temper since you were a child, and you have never spoken big words. If the villagers ask you for something, they will help you if they can, and there is no flaw in your character."

Shi Yan kowtowed: "Xie Qiqi Uncle's affirmation of Shi Yan."

Shi Yan staggered to his feet, stood in front of Mrs. Li, carefully took out a booklet from his sleeve, and handed it to Seventh Uncle.

Only then did he say in a voice that everyone could hear: "After I passed the Tongsheng exam at the age of thirteen, because the handwriting is particularly attractive, I have been helping the bookstore in the county town to copy books.

I was worried that my family would be impoverished because of me, and I copied books day and night, starting from 500 yuan a month at the beginning, to half a tael per month later.

There are also awards given by the scholars who passed the exam last year, the silver reward given by the county magistrate, the reward given by the governor of Fucheng, the silver money won by participating in the poetry festival and fighting poetry, and the financial support of several big merchants in Fucheng.

In addition to the silver coins, there are also cloth tea snacks. Converted into silver coins, there are more than 1,500 taels in total. I don't keep a single cent, and I leave them all to your mother for safekeeping.

Every transaction, every copper plate, I have a clear account book, the account book is in the hands of the seventh uncle, whoever does not believe can check it out! "

When everyone heard so much money, their eyes widened in shock, and they all looked at Seventh Uncle.

Seventh Uncle turned over several pages in succession, but he was not surprised. If a scholar really wants to make money, there are more things than they do in these fields.

Nod to the tribe.

The meaning is self-evident.

Shi Yan said again: "My life is hard, when I married my daughter-in-law, my mother said that the family's money was not enough, and she wanted to give five

The younger sister kept it for the dowry and the sixth brother to study, who made the sixth brother incompetent, and the clan did not agree to sponsor him!

Mother, you said that the Zhang family wants less dowry. Although the girls in their family are not very healthy since they were young, but they can read and hyphenate words, and they can talk to me after they get married. "

Everyone was puzzled again: "Iron egg, you must have remembered it wrong, where is your daughter-in-law's literacy and hyphenation? Who doesn't understand the girl from the Zhang family in the next village?

In the sky, I will follow the children at the entrance of the village to recite two three-character classics! "

Shi Yan smiled wryly: "Yes, how dare you believe it?"

"When Mrs. Zhang got married, she had to ask for medicine every three days. She lay in bed every day and couldn't move. Yueyue asked me for money, saying that the money for the medicine at home was not enough. During that time, my eyes were too fast to copy books. Boiled!"

Another person was puzzled: "Iron egg, I'm afraid you have misremembered again! Mrs. Zhang can't do any hard work at most. My daughter-in-law's family belongs to the village next door, and Mrs. Zhang does laundry, cooking, and fire at her family's house. shot.

It's just that you don't go to the ground, how can you lie in bed and drink medicine every day! "

Shi Yan smiled bitterly again: "It's true or not, I have records in my account book, there are times when I happened to be at home, my mother hired a barefoot doctor from the next village, and asked the doctor in front of me, what did the doctor say at that time? , and I will write it down in the booklet."

The crowd roared and exploded.

Seventh Uncle opened the booklet and read it for a while, then nodded to the crowd.

Now everyone understands what Madam Li is doing. This is to conspire with her daughter-in-law to harm her son. In order to cheat money from her son, she does not hesitate to let her daughter-in-law pretend to be sick, and even collude with the barefoot doctor next door.

Seeing what Mrs. Li wanted to say, Shi Yan made a decisive decision and continued: "Look at what I'm wearing, big and small, there are at least a dozen patches on my body, don't be afraid of jokes, they are all made by Shi Yan himself. .

Because my mother said that without my daughter-in-law, one day her old man will grow old, and she can't help my son. It is only right that I learn to sew by myself as soon as possible before I find a bride!

To tell you the truth, apart from a set of long gowns to wear when going out, this is already Shi Yan's latest piece of clothing!

Shi Yan's house is on the west side, if you don't believe it, you can go in and have a look, and you'll know at a glance!

I have never asked for less money for tailoring new clothes at four o'clock and eight seasons. I think my mother really made them, but I don't know who is wearing the new clothes! "

The good people in the crowd had already run into Shi Yan's house, and the house was empty, except for one

There are no other objects outside the bed and a table, so the three sets of clothes neatly arranged by the bed are particularly conspicuous.

The man shook his clothes down in front of everyone: "Oh, there are three clothes in the house, one is 50% new, one has patches on top of it, and one has a hole in the hem that hasn't been repaired yet! This, this It's too outrageous!"

Madam Li slapped her face, and everyone looked at her with disgust.

But that's not enough, Shi Yan continued: "I think many older aunts have heard of Mrs. Zhang, the pimple mother, because she ate too well during pregnancy, and she lay in bed all day without exercise, and the fetus was too big. Lead to dystocia, and finally hurt the body will lead to premature death!

My family's lump was born at eight pounds and six taels. The doctor repeatedly exclaimed that the fetus is too big, which is not a good thing for pregnant women and children! "

An aunt said, "That's right! At that time, the doctors and midwives from the county town were invited. The doctors said so, but when your mother met people in the village, she said that it was your daughter-in-law who was weak since childhood. Having a baby hurts the body and needs to make up for it.

Oh yes, not only your daughter-in-law needs to make up for it, but also your pimples, because the pimples don't eat good things in the womb, and they are born small like chickens.

I thought that everyone was in a hurry at that time, and I didn't pay attention to listening! "

Another aunt added: "Tie Dan, your daughter-in-law left later, but you don't need to make up for it. Your mother collects more eggs in the village every year than when your daughter-in-law was there.

My aunt asked a few questions out of curiosity. Your mother said that the pimples have grown up and have eaten more!

In the first two years, some people secretly said that the pimple was born at full term, and there is no need to spend money to make up for the body, but in the past few years, your pimple has gradually grown, and your body looks smaller than your peers. Everyone wondered if they had misheard at the time.

After all, it's really not easy to feed a child with congenital deficiencies. "

Shi Yan nodded: "Yeah, from the time Zhang's entry to the present, from the cost of asking for medicines to supplementing the body, I give my family nearly half a tael of silver every month for their mother and son to eat.

How hungry I am, everyone can see it. "

What is there that everyone still doesn't understand, this Mrs. Li is simply outrageous.

Looking at Shi Yan, the thin body collapsed as soon as the wind blew, the color was sallow, the hair was dry, the lips were peeling, the eyes were dark blue, and the blood on the hands did not know when it solidified and dried up, and the whole person developed in the direction of wandering ghosts. Go, who would have thought that this would be a master scholar?

Look at that Mrs. Li,

With a strong body and a ruddy face, none of the daughter-in-law in the village was her opponent in a fight.

Madam Li was about to die of anger, so she rushed over to grab Shi Yan's hair, but was caught by the man next to him who had a good relationship with Shi Yan.

Mrs. Li struggled to herself, shouting: "Shi Yan, you have lost your conscience, what's wrong with the old lady who gave birth to you to support you and asks you for some money? Your life is still given by the old lady!

Back then, the old lady almost lost half her life in order to give birth to you, so what happened to you to be a cow and a horse for the old lady? If the old lady wants you to die now, you have to die for the old lady! "

Shi Yan sneered in his heart, if he was still a boy who was nothing, maybe no one would speak for him, but now that he is the most likely scholar in the whole village to be admitted next year, the elders in the clan will not let it go.

Sure enough, as soon as Mrs. Li's voice fell, the seventh uncle immediately scolded: "Li Liushi, if you are still obsessed, I will divorce you on behalf of Li Dashan, old man. Where did you come from?"

Mrs. Li became quiet in an instant, and at this age, she really had nowhere to live.

But a pair of resentful eyes stared at Shi Yan fiercely, as if he could bite off a piece of Shi Yan's body at any time, causing the people around him to take two steps back.

Invariably, I thought to myself: Did Mrs. Li lose her mind? Seeing the murder of the father and the enemy is nothing but the same.

Shi Yan didn't care, and shouted at the pimple with a small head hidden behind the crowd: "Pimple, for you, how many eggs does your milk give you every day? How many new clothes do you wear a year? How many times do you eat meat in a month?”

The lump was shocked by Shi Yan's sudden attack, so she started to cry, crying and scolding in the direction of Shi Yan: "Broom Star, Nian said you are a Broom Star! You were born to beat her!

The milk said to defraud you of all your money and keep it for your uncle to study and marry a daughter-in-law!

The egg white noodles at home are reserved for my uncle, and the money is reserved for my uncle to eat meat and wear new clothes. When my uncle passes the jinshi examination and becomes a high-ranking official, our family will live a comfortable life with you, and let you farm alone in the countryside. Have a hard time!

Woohoo, you are a broom star! Obviously there is money on him, but he doesn't give milk! You have no filial piety! Unfilial son!

In the future, when I grow up, I must be filial to my sixth uncle! Uncle Liu is the best for pimples! I also bought candied haws for the knots to eat!

Kandao wants to save the delicious food and leave it all to Uncle Liu, who will be a son for Uncle Liu in the future!

Sixth uncle can put on beautiful clothes every day, and the clothes can't fit in five boxes, so he can only take them out and give them away.

, the body is still fragrant, and I take my pimples to a poetry party where there are many beautiful sisters. Some people give me delicious snacks, and some people make me happy and call me little boy!

You don't know anything, you wear tattered clothes all day long like a beggar in the village, and you look stinky! Shame!

The sixth uncle will also sing poetry against the beautiful sister. If he loses, he will generously give the beautiful sister a good-looking jade pendant.

You can only swipe and swish. You won't give me dozens of copper coins if I ask you to, and you will ask me to explain what I want for the money. It's really annoying!

Not only are you annoying, Grandpa is also annoying!

Sixth Uncle wanted to go to the county town to invite people to dinner, but grandfather refused to give Sixth Uncle any money. He even scolded Sixth Uncle for being unfilial and prodigal. I have seen it. Grandpa secretly gave you money and asked you to buy pen and ink. It was too partial!

snort! so what? Grandma has a lot of money in her hands. Uncle Six wants to spend as much as he wants! Such a big box, which is full of my filial grandmother's money!

There is also the fifth aunt, who is so beautiful, why can't she marry a wealthy family in Fucheng to be a young grandmother? You just deliberately don't want Fifth Aunt to marry a good family!

Deliberately looking for those shabby houses for the fifth aunt, to put it nicely, they are all young talents with a bright future!

snort! You are also a scholar yourself, look at this poor and sour look, do you want the fifth aunt to follow people to live a poor and sour life like you?

Aunt Wu is right. When you were a child, you were locked in the house by your grandmother without food and drink. How could your life be so hard and you didn't starve to death! What a scourge for thousands of years!

No wonder then grandma deliberately dropped you on the edge of the kang, and only broke one arm, and managed to survive!

Grandma is right, grandpa died well! Even if we die, we can earn a fortune as a dowry for the fifth aunt! When we die, no one will care about us anymore. We can spend our money as we want!

You don't have anyone to support, we can chat as much as we want! Let you be a cow and a horse for us! Woohoo, I hate you to death! "

Everyone: "!!"

Everyone: "…"

This amount of information is too large, and everyone just feels that the thunder is rolling, people are confused, their ears are buzzing, their eyes are blurred, and they can't believe what they heard.

Mrs. Li, who was pressed down on the ground, was said to have lost her strength long ago. She slumped on the ground, her body was pale, her face was pale, and she tried her best to reduce her sense of existence.

Mrs. Li used to rely on Shi Yan's temperament.

It is clear and clear, knowing that Shi Yan is honest and obedient and easy to bully, and he will not speak out in broad daylight when he is wronged.

Afterwards, she said a few good words to coax her, and Shi Yan still has to work hard to make money for her and several children?

In the end, she's just a stupid and poisonous country woman who hasn't seen her yet.

But now that Shi Yan has changed his personality, Mrs. Li is in an instant chaos, giving Shi Yan the upper hand.

Shi Yan didn't expect that the big move he prepared later had not yet come out. This cheap son who lost his conscience when he was a child was so powerful. The effect of what he said was comparable to his big move. The most beloved pair of sons and daughters are dead to the pit.
