Chapter 61 Help (1)
Chapter 61 Help (Part 1)
The small stove was filled with firewood, and the faint fragrance of porridge filled the room. The room was originally small and there was smoke from firewood, which made a woman cough.
"Mom, let me do it!" Li Rui, fifteen-year-old, came out, his eyes were gentle.
"Don't, Rui'er, my mother is doing these things. As long as you concentrate on studying and get a scholar for me, then my mother will not worry about anything. Alas, if your father had not died early, how could it have fallen to this point?" In fact, this woman is very young. According to memory, she is only thirty-three years old, but she looks almost haggard in her forties or fifties, and her face is sick.
At this time, the porridge was almost cooked, and the woman felt sweat faintly on her forehead. She took the wooden spoon and picked out the thickest porridge, served him a bowl, and then said, "Eat!"
Holding this thick bowl and looking at the clear soup-like porridge in the pot, Li Rui was silent, with a hint of warmth and sadness, and his eyes turned deeper.
From my memory, I know that if I refuse, my mother will get angry. She is sick and her anger will become worse in her life. This will not be worth the loss. At that moment, I drink it silently.
This Li Rui is of course Fang Xin. It was noon on the third day, and the mother and son would eat porridge at noon.
I remember seeing records in the past that in ancient times, poor scholars used cold porridge as their food and divided it into several pieces. Today I realized that this is true.
The sun shone on his body side, and the sun passed through the sky. Li Rui woke up. He put down his bowl and entered his house. In his house, there were nothing more than a bed and a table, and the most expensive ones were books.
After reading the book, I read it word by word. Combined with the memory, Fang Xin couldn't help but smile bitterly. Most of the books I read were from the Four Books and Five Classics, which was slightly different from what I read in my previous life. It was probably because of the different versions. Fang Xin happened to read it.
In fact, the second-level ancient Chinese is already at the level of scholarly level, and this person was also very hardworking. He was a child at the age of twelve and studied hard for three years. In fact, he was also at the level of scholarly level. However, in some places, he studied hard and lost his spiritual energy and experience, and did not have enough understanding of classics. If he took the exam for a scholar, he might not be able to win. But now, combined with memory, every word of classic flows through his heart and is immediately integrated.
Now, there is no need to read it anymore. After closing the book, Fang Xin is checking his body. This body is really weak and must be rich in nutrition and exercise. Just as he was thinking, a dagger shot into the window with a "pop" sound, and there was a word on the dagger: "Newcomer? Come out and speak."
He found himself in two days, and his efficiency was still very high. Fang Xin thought it would take some time, so he came out immediately and said to his mother He: "Mom, I'll go out."
"Oh, are you tired of studying? It's good to go out for a walk." Since Li Rui was very hard-working in his studies, his mother He was not worried at all when she came out by chance. After she put away the dishes and chopsticks, she immediately made textiles. This was the only income in her family.
After leaving his own door, he walked to the right without any guidance. After walking for about five minutes, he suddenly turned around and said with a smile: "Hello, how are the housing prices recently? How expensive are the cars?"
"It's okay, 3,000 yuan per square meter, you can get a loan. I bought a model car, 400,000!" In fact, it doesn't matter what it is, just to determine each other's identities, Fang Xin said casually.
"Welcome, you can call me Chen Xia, the name here, and there is my carriage." This man is young, wearing a silver crown and straightforward demeanor.
"I am Li Rui, you have seen the situation."
"I saw it, I didn't expect that you were so miserable, brother, aren't you enough time? Haha, this is the case for the newcomer, only 5 seconds to choose." Chen Xia said with a smile, looking at the other party.
"That's why I need Brother Chen to help."
"This is a matter of one sentence, but there are a few things that must be told to you, maybe you don't know." Chen Xia smiled faintly when he heard this, and a few traces of sunshine spread on him. He held a tube of Xiao in his hand, playing with him, with a very cool expression.
"First of all, this world has its destiny. This is something we only understand after many things."
"Fate means that everything should not be out of order easily, otherwise it will attract attention?"
"Smart, this is the first time I have met a smart newcomer. That's it. In the world here, everyone has a basic destiny. According to some certainty, it is normal to have a small violation, but if it is too standardized, it will attract the attention of some strangers. If it is too big, it will even attract the attention of the above!" Speaking of this, Chen Xia pointed to the above.
Of course, this is not the Xiao family, but refers to... Heaven!
Thinking of this, Fang Xin immediately understood in his heart, and he said, "I understand, you continue to say it."
"I know that my brother must be above level three and has many abilities. Therefore, even if the environment is not good now, you can still stand out after a while. However, you still need a method to stand out. You must first check your innate destiny. Don't be afraid of you. I have learned a little, so I always pay attention to the situation of myself and the people around you. You can give me a horoscope."
Fang Xin asked, "This body?"
“That’s right.”
Fang Xin reported it according to his memory. Chen Xia heard it, then calculated it on the spot and looked at his face carefully.
"If you don't mention it in detail, your horoscope and appearance have been calculated. There is some fortune of wealth and power, but according to my estimate, you can only be a county magistrate at most in your life, and your wealth cannot exceed five million yuan."
"Five million yuan, that's fifty thousand taels of silver?"
"It's almost the same. In fact, it's eight hundred yuan for one or two. But there is still a way. There are many ways in this world to legally break through the fate, but the best thing is Yin De. This world pays attention to Yin De."
Fang Xin was shocked and said, "Please explain it clearly."
"Simply put, if you do good deeds, you will get blessings. It's that simple. Brother, your family is not in good condition, and it's hard for me to give you money directly, but I can give you a reason. I'll drop a bag later. If you pick it up, I'll give you some small errands. Of course, you can also get my bounty directly."
"A little errand?"
"Yes, just go to my mansion and be a study scribe. Not a slave. Then you can get back a sum of money reasonably, not a lot, two taels of silver per month. As for the others, I will find a reason to promote you. In short, even if it is not true, at least it must be reasonable on the surface." Chen Xia said.
After a little silence, Chen Xia thought he was not satisfied, but this was indeed true. He used to give away a daughter, but both of them were in trouble and were noticed.
In fact, Fang Xin heard from a few words that the world's fate and energy control is very strict. While thinking, he said: "This is already very good. My talent can be admitted to the scholar this year."
"In this world, you need not only talent and knowledge, relationships, but also blessings. You will also be admitted to the scholar, or even the Juren, but it may not be this year. If you want to pass the scholar this year, you must also have good deeds. But I will help you in this matter. I will do good deeds every year. If you help, you can also get some points. Now you can follow me." Chen Xia said, slightly increasing the volume.
"Okay, then I'll go down." Hearing this, Fang Xin didn't say much, bowed for a moment, and left first. After a while, the man left and entered the carriage. He didn't have much time to go to a store again. It seemed that he had bought something. When he came out to get on the carriage, a small wallet fell on the ground inadvertently. Fang Xin hurried forward, picked it up, and shouted: "Young Master, your bag has been dropped."
After saying that, holding the bag, he came to a carriage. Fang Xin stopped, but before he could speak, the carriage door opened, and a 14- or 15-year-old maid walked out, took it over and took it, and gave a blessing to him: "This young master, this is indeed my young master's bag."
She took it in, seemed to say something, and came out again: "This is the young master, this is the one that my young master rewards you."
She took out a silver ingot, which was ten taels per.
Fang Xin said, "A gentleman does not value profit, but uses righteousness."
He refused to accept it. At this time, everyone saw it, and someone shouted: "Li Rui, this is what this young master rewards you. Your family is so poor, so why don't you take it back and take care of me!"
Fang Xin refused, but the girl had no choice but to go back. After a while, the girl came out again: "My young master admires you very much. Let's do this. If you enter the mansion and become a clerk, copy some books, calculate your salary, but not the people in the mansion, how about it?"
At this time, Fang Xin nodded and agreed. Seeing that he agreed, the girl breathed a sigh of relief and said, "You should know me Chen Mansion, come tomorrow!"
After saying that, he got on the carriage, then left. Fang Xin bowed deeply. At this time, everyone surrounded him and said, "You are so lucky. The young master of the Shen family asked you to do things. This is the mansion of the Tongzhi Master."
In this world, Tongzhi is the deputy chief of the prefect and a sixth-rank official. Although he has no real power, he is also a class of people.
Fang Xin bowed to everyone and said deliberately: "I am a scholar, so I am not taking this job for small profits. It's just that my mother worked hard to relieve her worries. A gentleman loves money and makes it a good way. I should follow the teachings of sages."
