Hanjianglou originally wanted to rent a small courtyard by himself, but if that didn't work out, he could just go back to the village and live alone.
In February and April, he will be able to take the county and government examinations. After passing the exams, he can go to the county school as a child student and live in the county school's dormitory.
In that case, he would only have one day off every month. It would not matter if he followed other students from the same village and rented a donkey cart or horse-drawn carriage to live in the village. It would only be one day.
However, Dong Nuan discussed with Dong Sanchun and persuaded them to stop.
Since we only stayed for one day, it was better to go back to the small courtyard they rented in the town.
By arranging him and Dong Yao together, you can also help Dong Yao with his homework in a timely manner and make sure this child doesn't grow crooked.
Although Hanjianglou was a little embarrassed, he mainly didn't want to affect Dongnuan's reputation, but he didn't care.
However, Dong Nuan persuaded and Dong Sanchun also said a few words. Hanjianglou thought about it and agreed.
So, now he has also moved in with us.
There are four rooms in the house. In addition to the main room, there are three other rooms that can be lived in.
Dong Nuan and her two sisters lived in one room, Dong Sanchun and Dong Wu lived in one room, and Hanjiang Tower and Dong Yao lived in one room, which was convenient for them to study.
Dongnuan was very clever with her hands. When they were cleaning up the house in winter and spring, she had already brought Dongtao back to buy some wood.
Buy some useful furniture for your home, buy two desks for Hanjianglou and Dongyao, and put them in their rooms, and they will be able to use them.
Everyone in the family is busy, Dong Tao is helping Dong Nuan.
The family spent two days tidying up and finally got the house in order.
Dong Nuan built the desk she was in urgent need of first, and because Dong Sanchun and Hanjianglou helped, she went very quickly.
A simple desk does not require a complicated structure. It can still be done by making two desks in two days.
Don't rush with other furniture, just take your time.
Hanjianglou and Dongyao will start studying soon.
Hanjiang Tower is actually something I don’t want to give up.
Now that he is busy and Dong Nuan is also busy, the two of them have less and less time to be alone.
Plus……
Over the past year or so, Dong Nuan has eaten well, worked less, and had less to worry about. As a result, she has become much fairer, her body has begun to lose weight, she has grown taller, and her body has become more fleshy.
As it grows longer and longer, it becomes more and more girlish.
In the past, Hanjianglou raised Dongnuan as a child, so even if the two of them were close, Hanjianglou didn't think it was a big deal.
But now...
I always feel that if I get too close, I will have random thoughts and not want to be a human being.
Therefore, Hanjianglou was reluctant to let go, but at the same time he was also entangled.
"Work hard for the county exam." Dong Nuan knew that the county exam would begin soon after they started school. Hanjianglou had to rush to the county seat to take the exam. Once he passed, he would go to the county school to study.
Dong Nuan actually didn't know much about the level of Hanjiang Tower, and she didn't know about the imperial examination in detail.
However, Hanjianglou said that he was confident, and Dongnuan was willing to believe him.
Therefore, when we say goodbye, even though we are reluctant to part with the warmth of winter, we still don’t forget to encourage you.
Hanjianglou looked at the little girl in front of him who had obviously grown taller and fairer. Waves of reluctance welled up in his heart. At the same time, his eyes were filled with confusion and his mood was a little complicated.
He raised his hand, gently touched Dong Nuan's head, and said in a deep voice: "Well, I know, Nuan Ya also pays attention to her own rest, don't work too hard, I will copy more books to make money in the future."
He is the one who makes money.
"Well, I listen to you." Dong Nuan acted obediently.
Of course, in fact, she does not tire herself.
Regarding this, Hanjiang Tower is also very relieved.
Soon, Han Jianglou and Dong Yao went to study in a private school.
Dong Nuan started to take up wood carving, and Dong Sanchun also learned from Dong Nuan.
If you can’t learn woodcarving, can you still learn carpentry?
Dong Sanchun was also very aggressive. He used to do it every day, but if you follow it, it's actually not difficult to get started now.
Wood carving requires aura, exertion, and imagination, but carpentry is relatively simple.
Because I have seen a lot of furniture and other things from winter to spring, so as long as I give him the drawings, I can probably make it.
In addition to teaching winter and three springs, Dongnuan also teaches the Wu family in winter.
Wood carving takes time to learn slowly, but some handicrafts do not require much time.
Such as braiding, tying various beautiful waistbands, various beautiful handmade knots, and even some simple beaded flower headdresses. As long as there are pictures and Dong Nuan is willing to teach, Dong Wu will learn from here.
It's still very fast.
A lot of jewelry does not require particularly expensive materials, because it is not easy to sell in the town. It only requires some scraps, and the price is not high, but if you are careful and have novel styles, you can sell it for a good price.
In addition to these handicrafts, Dong Nuan also taught Dong Wu how to make wool felt. As long as you have ingenuity and hard work, the small pieces you can make are very cute, and because they are novel in style, they can be sold at high prices.
Mrs. Dongwu also knows that the pressure to support her family is high nowadays, and their family’s hopes are all placed in the store!
So, study hard!
As for Dongtao and Dongzao, Dong Nuan asked Dong Sanchun to inquire about it early, found an embroiderer with a good reputation in the town for them, and sent them to learn embroidery.
No one knows how talented or dedicated two people are if they don’t learn.
Therefore, send it to a school first. If it is not suitable, then discuss with the embroiderer whether you should drop out of school and study something else with Dong Nuan.
The family was clearly arranged, but no one complained.
Dongtao and Dongzao couldn't even imagine that they could actually learn the embroidery work that only rich girls could do in their imaginations?
In the past, the two little girls would have taken the original owner's sacrifice for granted, but after more than a year of beatings, the two of them have slowly come to understand a lot of truth.
The two of them were very grateful for Dong Nuan's arrangement, and they just wanted to accept Dong Nuan as their mother.
Of course, even if they are willing, Dong Nuan is not willing.
Painless motherhood?
Otherwise, forget it.
Soon, the time entered February and the county examination began.
Hanjiang Tower has been preparing for a year for this purpose.
Of course, entering a county school and becoming a child is just the beginning.
The lowest goal of Hanjiang Tower is to become a scholar.
Scholars will receive various benefits from the court, and once they are famous, they will have qualifications even if they start teaching classes in the future. In addition, scholars can also be exempted from a lot of taxes, so it is necessary to take the scholar examination.
Of course, with his reputation as a scholar, he would be given some face by the county magistrate and others when he went out.
Hanjiang Tower naturally wanted to earn face for Dong Nuan, but he himself didn't care.
Therefore, being a child is just the beginning, and subsequent advancement is the goal!
