Chapter 721

The Number One Scholar’s ​​Foster Mother 1

The petitioner has three wishes: one: to preserve her filial daughter-in-law Jiang Wenzhi and her good grandson Shao Yuheng, and to raise Shao Yuheng to become a talented person; the other is to take revenge on Shao Qijun and Yin Jiayi who killed her; the third is to live a long life.

Years old, enjoy the filial piety of white-eyed wolf Shao Qijun.

"Grandma, grandma."

Next to Jian Yi, Shao Yuheng was playing with wood carvings and was distractedly listening to Jian Yi telling three hundred thousand interesting stories. He was getting excited when suddenly the story stopped. He looked up in confusion and saw his grandmother in a daze, and hurriedly put down the wood carvings.

, grabbing the simple hem of clothes with both hands and shaking them.

Jian Yi came back to his senses, smiled apologetically, hugged Shao Yuheng in his arms, and continued the story about "Dayu controlled the floods and passed through the house three times without entering".

Shao Yuheng twisted his little buttocks, made a comfortable nest for himself, leaned in Jian Yi's arms, and asked in a sweet voice: "Grandma, if you sacrifice your small family for everyone, then this small family is not important?"

Jian Yi thought for a while and replied: "Everyone's family is very important, but things have priorities, whether they are as heavy as a mountain or as light as a goose feather, it just depends on which one you value more."

Shao Yuheng nodded as if he understood, "So, in Dayu's heart, water control is more important than his family, right?"

"Well, yes."

"Then why can't he wait until the water is cured before marrying and having children? His wife was in pain and gave birth to a baby. She screamed like an aunt from the five tribes. He was not willing to go back and take a look at her for a quarter of an hour."

"Grandma, does he not like his wife and baby?"

"Grandma, are people who do big things busy? Don't they have even a quarter of an hour? That's why dad can often teach Heng'er to read at home because he is not a person who does big things, right?"

"..."

simple:"……"

One Hundred Thousand Whys is here again.

Jian Yi looked embarrassed and embarrassed. As soon as she racked her brains to answer one question, another question was thrown to her. Every time at this time, Jian Yi regretted endlessly. Why did she give enlightenment to the child in order to amuse him after time travel?

, want to tell him a short story?

Wouldn't it be better to leave it to his mother to teach?

His mother-in-law, Jiang Wenzhi, also comes from a scholarly family, and she is very young and old.

Jian Yi raised the corner of his lips, stood up and walked towards the house with Shao Yuheng in his arms, "Your question is very good and very meaningful. As for the answer, you can wait until your father comes back and ask him again, or you can also read more books and wait for you.

The more you read, the more you will understand."

Under the warm yellow candlelight, a lady was bending her head to make clothes. Suddenly she heard footsteps approaching from far away. She looked up and saw her mother-in-law and her youngest son. She smiled and asked: "Mother, can you return the newly prepared incense?"

Need to use it? Have you been bitten by mosquitoes?”

Jian Jian quickly walked into the room, hugged Shao Yuheng and sat down on the soft couch opposite Jiang Wenzhi. He smiled back and said, "It has to be used. In the past, no matter how good the spices were, there would always be one or two that came to disturb people. Now this recipe is no good."

Yes, it doesn’t smell bad, it’s just right.”

After Jiang Wenzhi listened, he carefully observed the exposed skin of Jian Yi and Shao Yuheng, and saw that there were indeed no new red envelopes, so he felt relieved and said, "Just use it. It seems that you won't have to suffer from those mosquitoes in the future."

It’s painful.”

Jian Yi nodded in agreement with a smile, picked up the tea cup on the table and fed Shao Yuheng a few sips of water as he was nestled in his arms, then turned his attention again to the man who was making a new coat for Shao Qijun.

Looking at Jiang Wenzhi's gentle and focused face, Jian Jian couldn't help but pull out the scumbag Shao Qijun again and cursed him several times in her heart.

Although the husband of the original owner, Shao Yaozhong, and the adopted son, Shao Qijun, are both talented people and have achieved fame, in fact, the Shao family's family background is average. Let's not talk about the connections. Let's just say that this can be used, and it can be used for Shao Qijun's study and scientific examination. Money, that's really not much.

First of all, Shao Yaozhong was born into a farming and studying family. All three brothers were studying. The family spent a lot of money. Shao split most of the remaining family wealth, and the remaining 30% was shared equally between Shao Er and Shao Yaozhong. This means that Shao Yaozhong is not very rich. .

Next, Shao Yaozhong was not a local student, so he did not earn much in terms of food and clothing, and he could not guarantee the imperial examinations for his students, so he had no income from this aspect.

Although later there were the dowry from the original owner and the money Shao Yaozhong earned from teaching, as well as the money from the thank-you gift that exempted the clansmen from land tax to supplement the family income, but in the early years, Shao Yaozhong needed money to marry the ten-room concubine he took in order to give birth to a son, and she needed money to eat, drink, chew, and have a maidservant to serve her. ; When looking for medical treatment for infertility, the consultation fees of famous doctors, the money for medicinal materials, the money for incense to pray to God, the money for the funeral of the old lady, etc., consumed at least half of the Shao family's wealth.

Over the years, the Shao family has also provided for two scholars to study, buy pens, inks, paper and inkstones, write books, communicate with each other, maintain relationships, etc.; Shao Qijun also had many things to take care of when he participated in the imperial examination; eight years ago, another sum was spent on Shao Yaozhong's funeral; like It's money for house repairs; monthly payment for slaves, etc., which all require long-term expenditures.

In addition, Jiang Wenzhi also came from a farming and studying family, and the dowry he brought with him was not much. Shao Qijun spent a lot of time studying for the imperial examination, so the Shao family's financial resources are really a bit thin at the moment. If Jiang Wenzhi had not had good embroidery skills, the embroidery would have been sold. For such a high price, Shao Qijun would probably have to temporarily abandon the idea of ​​taking the imperial examination due to financial reasons, just like his father, and just run a school honestly to earn money in the future.

Instead of like now, because of Jiang Wenzhi's embroidery skills, he can study wholeheartedly. If there are any books he wants to read, Jiang Wenzhi will stay up late and embroider for two or three months to buy them back; when he runs out of pens, inks, paper and inkstones, he can buy them and return them If you can be of good quality, you don’t have to dare to participate in literary and poetry gatherings and so on because of financial constraints and lack of money. You can mix well in the literary circle, discuss articles, express yourself, promote your talent and reputation, and be young. It became a juren.

You know, no matter what era you are in, medical treatment and education are the most expensive.

Therefore, from a simple point of view, Shao Qijun owes his current achievements to three people.

The first one is the original owner. Without the output of the original owner's dowry shop, Shao Qijun could not study. After all, in order to have children, cure infertility, pray to gods and worship Buddha, when Shao Qijun was adopted into the Shao family, the Shao family did not have much money.

The second one is Shao Yaozhong. If Shao Yaozhong had not chosen him, Shao Qijun would have been a poor little boy sweating in the fields today, being treated harshly by his stepmother. If Shao Yaozhong had not hoped that his son would become a successful man, and carefully enlightened him and taught him knowledge, Shao Qijun might not have been able to succeed without doubts. Achievements now.

The third one is Shao Qijun’s first wife, Jiang Wenzhi. Although Jiang Wenzhi’s dowry was not much, she had good red needlework and her embroidery could be sold at a high price, which could support Shao Qijun’s studies, imperial examinations and socializing.

However, Jiang Wenzhi and the original owner's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, who were very benevolent to Shao Qijun, paid for Shao Qijun's ambition and died in vain.

Thinking that the good news of Shao Qijun's high school graduation would come soon, Jian Yi looked at Jiang Wenzhi with a gentle expression and advised: "Wenzhi, it's better not to use needle and thread at night from now on, be careful of catching an eye."

Jiang Wenzhi shook his head slightly, pursed his lips and smiled softly, "It doesn't matter, mother."

Jian Yi sighed softly and said solemnly: "Listen. How can Qi Jun, a tall and handsome man of 17 feet, not understand the slightest bit of general affairs, and even be unable to support his mother, wife and children? There is no need to study."

"Seeing that he is about to stand up now, Brother Heng has also reached the age of going to school. He should stand up soon."

After saying that, Jian Yi took Jiang Wenzhi's hand and earnestly persuaded her again: "Just listen to me on this matter. After completing this order, don't do it again. It's time for Qi Jun to take responsibility."
