Chapter 26: The heroine in the farming article (8)

When the three rooms were separated, the autumn harvest was just finished, but now the first crop of grain after the separation has been finished.
Su Yuan also went to help. The autumn harvest is different from spring plowing. It is also different from weeding and catching insects on weekdays. The autumn harvest is in a hurry. Once the crops are ripe, you must hurry home when the weather is good. .
If the grains that have been planted for half a year of hard work are not harvested in time, some of the grains will be reduced in production, it will really hurt people.
This year is a very good year. It is a bumper year, and every family is smiling.
Along with the joy of the harvest, another good letter spread throughout the ten miles and eight townships, that is, Mr. Zhou's youngest son was admitted as a talented scholar, and the top of the field. Although he is a talented talent, he is basically a solid master.
In the capital, once every three years, even Jinshi is not rare, but here, Juren is already rare, and it takes only a few years or even ten years to get a Jinshi.
Zhou Huaicheng was already a talent at a young age, and he was the top in every game. As long as he was not a Jiang Lang talent, then the fame of a Jinshi in the future can still be expected.
Zhoucun includes the villagers in nearby villages. There is no need to look to the future at all. Just having a talented father is enough to be happy and go about telling each other.
"Happy event, there happened to be the wild rabbit I picked up from the mountain yesterday, my mother, you stewed the rabbit, and I will kill a chicken again. Unfortunately, there is no wine."
Having said that, Su Lao San didn't see any regrets on his face. He was the future father-in-law of Xiucai Gong, and he still had less wine.
To say that Erya is right, he didn't think that this kid would be a talent in the exam. He only thought that he was well dressed and well-looking, and the family conditions should be very good. What he didn't expect was that he was so proud.
The Cui family is not a fool. Su Lao San heard that Zhou Cun had a talented man in the front foot, and said that there was a happy event on the back foot, and he wanted to eat and drink. After making a connection, he knew that the person in Erya's heart was sure. It has a relationship with Zhoucun's scholars.
Either he is a relative of Mr. Xiucai, or he is studying with Mr. Xiucai, otherwise Su Laosan can't be so excited, he is stewing rabbits and killing chickens, and it is almost time for the New Year.
"Tell me honestly, it's a happy event for someone who is a talented person. What does it have to do with our family?"
After eating so much'shut-up fee', Old Su's mouth was still tight: "This is not from the neighboring village, or from the folks in the big fellow villager. If this one becomes an official in the future, he can cover all of us... Folks."
Cui clanked his lips and returned to the villagers. They should be relatives. If you can have Xiucai Gong as a relative, the person in the second girl must be in good conditions at home.
Also, since this child hurt his head, when has he done something at a loss? This is reincarnation and cannot be chosen, otherwise he would have already voted for wealthy people.
"I stewed the rabbit for you. I won't kill this chicken. Although it's a happy event, but I didn't like it. The chicken I finally raised was saved for the New Year."
Su Lao San deliberately stretched his face, but his voice was filled with joy that could not be concealed: "What do you know, listen to me and quickly kill the chickens. Apart from the four acres of land last year, I have not I’ve encountered such a happy event. Isn’t raising chickens just to keep them for food, kill them, kill them with confidence, and I’ll talk to Erya later."
Among the talents in Zhou Huaicheng, the two families who should be most happy, except for the Zhou family, are their Su family.
Isn’t it just a chicken? His good days are still yet to come. The Zhou family boy was willing to get so many good things before he was admitted to the show. Now he is admitted to the show, the things he brought must be more than before. All right.
Su Lao San is shrewd in his small abacus, and there are people who are more shrewd in abacus than him.
Zhou Huaicheng passed the exam, which shows that Mr. Zhou is indeed capable of teaching. Although he is a child, he actually teaches a talent. Su Dalang is also a student of Mr. Zhou, but his time in school is short. Years, then it should be the same as this talented man.
The Su family sent their children to study for the sake of Guangzong Yaozu. In the past, it was just imagination. Now with the example of Zhou Huaicheng, this imagination feels even more reliable.
In the past, sending Su Dalang to study was just the idea of ​​the old couple of the Su family and the Su family's big room. Now even the second room feels suitable.
The two have been begging for a child for many years and they have only got one girl, so God pity for this and that, the couple do not expect to be pregnant with another child. They will take good care of the four girls, and they will not depend on the elderly in the future... Big nephew.
I don't have a son, and both my eldest brother and third brother have only one son. It is impossible for anyone to adopt his son to him, so he can only rely on his nephew for the elderly.
It’s better to count on the eldest nephew and the second nephew. The eldest nephew was grown up by the two of them. The second nephew has already been separated, but it is also a hopeless one, except for farming, which means going up the mountain to catch A rabbit and a chicken will be like this for a lifetime.
Unlike the big nephew, look at how beautiful the Zhou family is now, and how beautiful their Su family will be in the future.
But now, basically few people connect the Zhou family and the Su family together.
But it was a talented talent who returned to his hometown, and when he arrived at Zhou Huaicheng, he really felt a bit of returning home.
As soon as they arrived in the town, the two elder brothers dragged his family around him and accompanied him back to the village. When they arrived at the village, there were a lot of people blowing horns and firecrackers.
Zhou Huaicheng had never enjoyed this treatment when he was invigorating the examinations before. Of course, compared with the scenes of exploring flowers and horses in the middle of the past, this was almost something.
Father Zhou is really excited, don't look at him telling his wife before that Zhou's family will have a Hanlin in the future.
But that is something in the future. Now the 13-year-old son has not only passed the exam, but also the top of the field. According to scholars, this is a ‘small three yuan’.
This is enough to be recorded in the family tree, enough to open an ancestral hall to inform the ancestor, and it is already a glorious ancestor.
There must be a big banquet, invite the folks to have a drink, and celebrate.
Zhou Huaicheng almost thought that he was the champion.

I’ll wait for the banquet. I’m not in a hurry at this moment. I still have something to tell my father and mother.

"Well, well, let's talk more tonight." Father Zhou pinched his beard, his face was already smiling.
What can you do when you just come back from the city, you must have worshipped a famous teacher, it may be the chief examiner, or it may be an invigilator.
Anyway, it must be an official with high grades. When he was scoring the papers, he found that his younger son had a brilliant literary talent, and he was a rising star in the literary world. The adults who loved talented and eagerly thought about accepting disciples.
When the list was finished, he sent someone to take his youngest son to the mansion and asked Huaicheng whether he would like to be a teacher.
I would definitely be willing. This is what many scholars dream of. He had such a dream when he was young, but unfortunately he lost in the ‘literary talent’.
Zhou's mother remembered what Su Dalang had told her, that the little girl who was only nine years old, even if more than half a year has passed, she would be only nine and a half years old.
Her son won't mention this, right? It's really impossible to get married at this age. Isn't it because he wants to be married?
When all the guests were sent away, Zhou Huaicheng chatted with his parents alone in the study. The eldest brother and the second brother’s family stayed to live tonight. The yard is a little messy, and there are often children walking around, but the study in front is quiet, and It is not easy to be heard.
"So, you are thinking about getting married now? No, no, no, I mean, you are thinking about marrying that little girl now. I heard that she is only nine years old... and a half, is it too young? It’s a little bit, it’s better to wait two more years.
Zhou's mother was not angry. Although she was a little different from what she thought, most of the situation was expected. Although the younger son is smart, he is a young man after all. It is understandable that he is incompletely considering things.
But she is a mother, if she can't understand, then who can understand.
When my father was full of disappointment, he thought that his younger son was accepted as apprentice by a famous teacher, but the mysterious secret called them to the study.
"I know that A Yuan is relatively young and not suitable for marriage, but after being admitted as a talented talent, I plan to go to Fucheng to study. Next year will be the rural exam. My son is going to work hard until Juren, and then prepare for the exam for a few more years. In this way, I'm afraid that I won't be able to stay at home long, so I have this idea.
"My father has always taught me that'a gentleman does nothing wrong, and his actions must be right.' I have been thinking about this for a long time, and I have already considered it before I set off for the city."
Father Zhou doesn't remember teaching the younger son with this sentence, but the sage's words always make sense. Since Huaicheng practices the sage's words, he must have considered it thoroughly.
"For my father, I thought you would marry a young lady." Zhou's father said with some regrets, his literary talent was brilliant, he worshipped a famous teacher, and then married the daughter of the famous teacher as his wife. This was the most perfect process in his imagination.
"But since it's your own marriage, let you decide and trust your vision for the father."
Even if the woman is not highly educated, she must be outstanding in appearance. Anyway, both are accounted for, or accounted for the same, otherwise it is impossible for the younger son to look at.
Zhou's father agreed so lightly that Zhou's mother's words were stuck in her throat, which was not suitable for speaking out.
"You are too anxious. I either dislike that girl, or I am afraid that others will not speak well. If she is so young, you two will get married. Someone will definitely say something like a child bride. This is not good for your reputation. The reputation for her is not good. It’s better to wait for a few years. If you are sincere to her, you are afraid of waiting for a few years. You can’t change your heart after a few years. Although the city is far away from here, As long as you want to come back, you can still come back."
Zhou's mother's words are reasonable and well-founded, and the truth is of course such a truth, but Zhou Huaicheng admits that the situation is different from others. He and A Yuan are already married for the first time, and there is no need to use distance and time to verify the relationship.
She is not around, he is always uneasy, as if a heart is always floating.
"The son understands the mother's painstaking efforts. It is just how outsiders talk about it. It is not important to the son. If he doesn't do anything that hurts the world, he is not ashamed of his heart. If so, they have something to say, the son will argue with them. "
If Zhou Huaicheng is afraid of people's words, then it is not Zhou Huaicheng. He knows that some people only dare to discuss in secret, just like a mouse in a stinking ditch, so they don't need to be familiar with them.
If someone dared to say these gossips face to face, that would be just right, and he would be able to distinguish it arrogantly. Quarrels can't solve the problem, but there is a winner or loser, and the one who lost, wants to say something similar in the future, he has to weigh it carefully.
The young man's spirit also brought a bit of innocence to the ignorance of the sinister heart. Zhou's mother was both sad and a bit proud, and she was always cruel with her frail little son since childhood.
"You have to let me see that little girl. Even if you want to get married, you will have to be hired in three books and six jobs. It will take time. It is not decided today to take the bride home tomorrow. "
"At that time, I will arrange. A Yuan has a temperament similar to his mother. They are both casual and hearty people. I think my mother will like it and will definitely get along well in the future. The son has already planned to settle down in the capital. Just take your two elders and live together. If your father still wants to teach, then we can open a private school in Beijing."
Zhou’s mother really didn’t expect this child to think so far. It sounds like a kid’s joke, but the younger son understands that she is not a person who will make promises at will, that is to say, that’s what she planned to do. .
She also didn't want to save her child's face. Although the capital is good, her homeland is hard to leave. Moreover, she is not just such a son, and she should follow the boss in old age.
"It sounds good, you can arrange the time, make an appointment to our house, the little girl has a cousin here to study, outsiders ask, it is here to give things to the cousin, will not attract People doubt it."
She wanted to see if this little girl looked like a fairy or was talented at chanting Xuxu.
Zhou’s mother had only been a young son before, and she had a whim, so in six months she had neither secretly inquired about the little girl, nor secretly visited it. She only knew that she was the daughter of the third house of Su’s family in Wangshan Village. She was only nine and a half years old. , I don’t understand the appearance and temperament.
She is afraid that the youngest son is like the eldest son, who likes the "talented woman" who loves the sweet, tears in the wind, sad at the flowers, and eloquent. She always speaks the words of the saint and is sensitive. She hasn't understood it yet. The whole play is almost finished.
The youngest son likes to write poems and lyrics, play with the flowers and plants, and also like to paint and play the piano, like the kind of man in the opera, I don’t know if he will like the so-called ‘talented girl’ like the eldest son.
If that was the case, she would definitely not be able to go to the capital in the future, so she might as well stay in Zhoucun, at least not tired.
