Liu Kang's eyes wandered a little: "No, no."

How could it be that I haven't inquired?

First, his father died, and then his mother died. As the eldest son of the family, how could he not be in a hurry and not want to find a way to find a way out?

It was also an accident that he would find out about the imperial examination. He lied to others and said that if he passed the imperial examination, he would have any benefits. As long as he passed the examination, he would not have to worry about food and clothing at home, and his younger brother and sister's marriage would not be a problem.

But the question is - if you can't even eat enough, how can your family have money to let him study?

For a while, he almost became a child husband for others, just to give his younger brother and sister a certain way to live.

"No? No, how do you know so clearly?" Bian Pingling clearly didn't believe his words, "You are worried about money. You don't have to worry about this at all. Even if we don't do business in the future, just relying on the recipes in my hands, selling the recipes alone is enough for you to study."

"Sister-in-law..." Liu Kang's voice was slightly trembling, trying to suppress a weak hope deep in his heart, and answered sensibly, "This prescription is valuable, but how much can a prescription be sold? No matter how many it is sold, the number of prescriptions is limited, and the money you save in the end is limited. Instead of making such a little limited money, it is better to find a way to do business. The money you earn is continuous, and the money you earn will only be more."

"Reading is a lot of money, and it's very difficult for others to provide one. Our family provides two for one, so how easy is it? I'm already very happy that my sister-in-law is willing to offer Lao Qi's study."

"I've been inquired about it a long time ago. I can't tell you what kind of study is. Some people start studying at the age of time and have been gray-haired. They haven't taken the exam for a scholar. Some people study for a few years and then pass the exam."

"We don't know when the fifth and seventh brothers will pass the exam. If they have a promising future and can pass the exam after getting married, it would be a great blessing."

"If it takes longer, we will have more money. The family must have a steady stream of income to support it, otherwise it will not be able to hold on at that time."

"In addition to the fifth and the seventh school students, the fourth sister, the sixth sister, and Cuihua, they are getting older, and we have to save their dowry..."

The more you talk about it later, the more rational Liu Kang became, the more he seemed to be able to understand the current predicament at home. If he wanted to get out of this predicament, what each of them had to do.

Everything, in his mind, had a clear vein.

"Who told you that we have no other way to make money except the seller?" Bian Pingling said, "Yes, you are right. We did not have money in the early stage and had no other choice except the seller. But what about the latter? Brother Kang, we cannot sell prescriptions for a lifetime."

"Besides selling the goods and doing business, what else can you get money quickly? Sister-in-law, are you not counting on farming, right?"

"What's wrong?" Bian Pingling looked serious, "When we were in that landlord's family, did they also rely on farming to support a large family? Why can't we do it?"

"But, but he is a landlord." Liu Kang didn't expect that his sister-in-law had such great ambitions - she actually missed the local master?!

"Did you ever think about it? Why do the landlords want to support their children in school so much? If their son can't read it, he will marry his daughter to a scholar."

Liu Kang naturally knew the reason: "Of course, it was to change the family, scholars, farmers, industry and commerce, which has existed since ancient times. And even if it was just for a scholar to come out, the landlords could have dozens of acres of land exempted from taxes; if they could pass the imperial examination, they would have hundreds of acres; if they passed the imperial examination, there would be more tax-free land..."

Bian Pingling asked: "The landlord Zhao in our town has recorded the land in the name of his son-in-law who passed the exam, the scholar?"

"Yeah." Liu Kang nodded, "The premise is that you must pass the exam first. If you can pass the exam, even if you are just a scholar, the tax exemption will be enough for our family's expenses."

"Yes, why don't we take the exam? How much pressure do they have on the fifth and seventh men alone?" Bian Pingling continued to fool him, "Anyway, I think the eggs cannot be placed in a basket, we cannot rely on the fifth and seventh men alone. Brother Kang, your brain is obviously the smartest among the brothers. Although you are a little older than the fifth and seventh men, I think you are more suitable for studying. Like the third brother, his brain is like a wood. Even if I send it to know more, I don't expect him to pass the exam for a scholar."

Liu Kang suddenly felt very stressed: "Sister-in-law, do you believe me so much? What if I..."

"I just stayed in a school for three or five years, and if I can pass the exam, I will continue to study. If I can't pass the exam, I will come back. By that time, you will be the age to get married, and it will not delay you. What are you afraid of?" Bian Pingling said, "I am not afraid of spending more than three or five years. What are you afraid of?"

"I……"

"Or do you have no confidence in yourself?"

Liu Kang found that he seemed to be unable to say anything to his sister-in-law at all. Moreover, his sister-in-law believed in him so much, which moved him very much.

He knew that his surname was not Li. Since his father died, he and his mother remarried and brought him to the Li family, and he and his sister Liu Cuihua became a burden.

Stealing oil bottles is not a good word. Since then, everyone has only two words to look at them - disgust.

In order to support his younger brother and sister, he could only follow Li Hongyun with shamelessness and promise him that as long as the other party gives him and his sister a bite, he would make cows and horses for the other party in the rest of his life and repay him.

How long has it been since I felt like this?

There is a person who has no purpose and does not seek rewards, so he gives him the two words - believe.

I believe you can.

Liu Kang's eyes turned red in an instant, but he didn't want others to see his weak appearance. He hurriedly threw down the peanuts in his hand and turned around and ran out of the yard.

"Oh, brother..." Liu Cuihua was startled and hurriedly followed.

"What's wrong with him?" Li Liumei was also shocked, as if she didn't understand what the brother and sister ran away.

"Don't worry about them." Li Er did not let the others chase after him.

Although he doesn't like this pair of siblings, he has to admit that Liu Kang is indeed a very good brother.

"Aren't I afraid that they will be taken away by the wolf on the mountain at that time?" Li Liumei muttered.

Li Simei was slightly worried. She glanced at Li Qi and hesitated whether to ask now or ask later.

Although Li Qi's surname is Li, he is very Liu Kang and the others are a mother. No one can stand on which side.

"It's okay, Liu Kang is so old, he knows it." Li Er was not worried much. The people in this room were not as good as Liu Kang's brain alone.

"Sister-in-law, do you really have so much money to support us in school?" Li Wu didn't know if studying was good, but just wanted to know, in this situation at home, do you really have money to support them in school?

And he felt that the most important thing now is not to buy them clothes for winter, or to build new houses for winter?
