Everyone in the village said that he, Ling Daren, had given birth to a good son, who could make money and be good at studying. He might even be the number one scholar in the future!
Everyone in the Ling family was extremely excited every time they heard such remarks, and the smiles on their faces were as bright as flowers blooming in spring.
Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. After he broke his leg, the Ling family's family situation deteriorated and they were unable to make ends meet.
Even the money he saved from selling strollers cost him all, and in the end he had to borrow money from others.
When the Ling family became prosperous due to their stroller, everyone in the village applauded him, but they never thought that after he broke his leg, he asked someone to borrow money, but what he got in return was endless stares and ridicule.
Even when his son walks in the village, others will point at him.
It was nothing more than a mockery of the Ling family, who were so depressed that they had to go to their homes to borrow money for medical treatment.
How can you pretend to be a wealthy family and send a son who can't even plant rice to school?
Nowadays, they can't even get money for medical treatment, and they have to go to people's homes to borrow money. It's really their own fault. They deserve to be poor all their lives.
Fortunately, his son rarely played with people in the village, so he probably didn't receive much interference.
Moreover, his son has always been broad-minded and has never heard of a dispute with anyone.
The Ling family is insisting now, and they firmly believe that his son must win back this reputation.
When his son becomes a scholar next year, he will see who dares to gossip behind our Ling family's back.
Thinking of this, Ling Daren couldn't help feeling relieved, and looked at Ling Yun with even more intense eyes.
So Ling Daren smiled and joked, "You boy, you have known a lot of truths since you were a child. I don't know where you learned them secretly. You are a ghost. If I hadn't seen your mother give birth with my own eyes,
You, I have to wonder if you are someone else's child."
As soon as these words came out, Ling Yun's back felt cold, his face instantly turned pale, and his body trembled slightly.
However, Ling Daren was facing forward at this time, and Ling Yun was holding the wheelchair behind him, so Ling Daren was completely unaware of Ling Yun's changes.
Ling Yun was so confused that he paused for a long time, took a long breath, and then slowly suppressed the waves in his heart.
Ling Yun returned to normal, relaxed his facial expression, smiled and joked with his father, "Dad, look at what you said, the child was not born to you and your mother, how could it be that it fell from the sky?"
Ling Daren said casually, "Who knows, I once heard your grandfather say that our Ling family has been farmers for generations, but there has never been a scholar. So we saw that you were clever and weird since you were a child, and you did things differently from ordinary people, so we were worried about where you were.
Here comes the little monster!"
At this time, Ling Daren suddenly turned around, stared at Ling Yun with a serious look and said, "You don't know, because of this matter, your grandfather, your father, and I even specially observed you for a long time when you were young!"
It’s not that you have a perverse personality, you never lose your temper, and you don’t bully your sisters. It’s normal to sleep at night, but you just act like an adult. Otherwise, your grandpa and I will discuss finding a Taoist priest to perform rituals for you to drive away evil spirits.
Crap!."
Ling Daren spoke calmly, and after speaking, he meaningfully patted Ling Yun's hand on the wheelchair.
Ling Yun said that the situation was calm, but in fact, there were already turbulent waves and turbulent storms in his heart.
He was really frightened by what his father said.
Ling Yun never expected that the Ling family would actually do such a thing when he was young. He was not aware of it at all, let alone alert.
It seems that in the future, practicing teachers must be more cautious and must not show anything different from this era.
"What a risk, but luckily the secret wasn't revealed." Ling Yun muttered in his heart.
"Don't worry, Dad, the child is born into the Ling family, and will be the soul of the Ling family when he dies." Ling Yun vowed, and in order to cover up the panic in his heart, his voice was much louder than usual, which made people believe him.
It was as if everything he said was so natural and natural.
"You kid, you are really..." Ling Daren was so moved that he couldn't speak when he heard Ling Yun's words, and tears kept rolling in his eyes.
Fortunately, Ling Yun didn't say the last sentence, "Anyway, it's all the Ling family from beginning to end. Otherwise, how could he have traveled through time and become someone with the same surname?"
If he said these words, Ling Daren would probably be scared to death by him, let alone moved or not.
...
Things often go wrong as you wish, but you can always talk to others.
The Ling family has been through many hardships, but Ling Yun still has to cheer up.
The conversation between Ling Yun and Ling Daren seemed to give Ling Daren reassurance.
From that day on, Ling Daren had a firm belief in his eyes.
However, Ling Yun stayed at home for almost four and a half days and then hurried to Jingshan Academy.
The government examination was about to begin, and he couldn't afford to delay.
The first thing he did when he came to the academy was, of course, to visit his master.
The Ling family couldn't make ends meet, so naturally he didn't have any gifts to bring.
However, as before, I brought some dried bamboo shoots and pickled bamboo shoot tips that I carefully prepared, but the appearance of the gift box in which the bamboo shoots were packed was incompatible with this era.
When talking about giving bamboo shoots as gifts, Ling Yun was often teased by Xu Linfu.
Ling Yun was the first person to say that the Daqian Dynasty was giving bamboo shoots as a gift. This made Ling Yun extremely embarrassed.
After the incident, when Ling Yun was giving gifts, he gritted his teeth and changed the things into gifts that were roughly the same as those for academy students. Unexpectedly, after bringing them, he was scolded by Xu Linfu.
He scolded Ling Yun so that he was confused and at a loss. He thought he had done something to make him so angry.
After the interview, Xu Linfu asked him to take away the gifts he had brought, saying that he was not used to using the same things as others.
As soon as these words came out, Ling Yun had an epiphany on the spot.
Pi Dian Pi Dian took the things away, and early on the third morning, he put the bamboo shoots and bamboo shoot tips he had carefully prepared in his exclusive gift box and brought them to Xu Linfu.
When Xu Linfu saw the unique gift box he brought, his eyes lit up and he couldn't wait to grab it and play with it.
Xu Linfu looked at the brand-new gift box, but without opening it, he praised him for his effort in doing things.
Ling Yun later felt that such a small gift box could win over a scholar like Xu Linfu, who made him smile from ear to ear, so there must be something wrong with it.
So after he went back, he made many similar gift boxes and sold them in the market during the Chinese New Year.
As you can imagine, people always prefer freshly baked things.
Then he cleverly made a lot of money from the gift box, which was also a big help for the Ling family to maintain their life as they were all these years.
After that, he left the gift box to his sisters at home. Of course, he still had to control the shape and general pattern.
Whenever there is a festival, the sisters in the family always make some novel boxes and sell them at the market, so that they can earn some income to supplement the family income.
