Going to school, reading, writing, applying for a certificate of honor, none of them cost money? This is also the reason why it is difficult to get ahead in a poor family.
Cheng Yun said: "I will take care of the money matter. Dad, you just need to study hard."
Cheng Zhongqian also had no experience of hard times. He knew about the situation at home, but not much. In addition, because of his trust in his eldest son, he didn't ask too many questions after hearing the words and really didn't care.
"How about I ask my eldest brother to send me all my books?" Cheng Zhongqian said.
Although he was "uneducated and unskilled", he still had an entire study room at home, and some of the books contained notes by world-famous Confucians, which were worth a fortune.
Cheng Yun thought for a moment and said, "Don't do it yet."
It's only been a few months since that incident, so there must still be people keeping an eye on the uncle, so this is not a good time to contact him.
After hearing this, Cheng Zhongqian nodded and said yes.
As the king looked at it, he always felt that their roles were reversed.
The next day.
Cheng Zhongqian and Cheng Yun got up early in the morning. The weather was terribly cold. The cold wind blew in at the slightest movement. They really wanted to wrap themselves up in quilts.
Cheng Yun went next door to take a look at Ling Bao.
The little girl looked like she did before she fell asleep. She was sleeping peacefully, with her mouth covered by the quilt. Cheng Yun pulled it down a little. The king was sleeping next to her, curled up in a ball. Maybe it was because of his presence that Ling Bao was born.
You won't feel cold.
Cheng Yun felt relieved and closed the door softly.
Cheng Zhongqian, who was waiting in the yard, glanced at her. After walking out of Beihe Village, he said, "We can't bring her to your mother. She will irritate your mother."
Cheng Yun pursed his lips and said nothing.
"You can keep her as long as you want in the past few years, but before meeting your mother, you must deal with her whereabouts." Cheng Zhongqian said in a strong tone.
Cheng Yun still didn't say anything. Maybe there was a way to get the best of both worlds.
As soon as he entered the county town, Cheng Zhongqian went to the location of the hair-shaving stall without stopping.
A person suddenly appeared in front of him. The boss was startled, and then he smiled and said, "But Mr. Cheng?"
He had heard from the village chief yesterday that someone was looking forward to him day and night.
Cheng Zhongqian nodded, and the boss smiled and asked him to sit down and take out his tools.
After a while, his dark beard fell down, and his fair face was exposed in the sun, making his lips red and teeth white.
The boss was stunned. He didn't expect this man to be so handsome. He had never seen anyone more handsome than Cheng Zhongqian in his decades of life!
"Cheng Langjun, why didn't you get rid of this beard earlier? It's a pity that you have such a good appearance." The boss complimented, "But the little old man has learned a lot today. I'm afraid this is the case for a nobleman in the capital."
"
There was a bronze mirror on the boss's stall. Cheng Zhongqian looked in the mirror and touched his smooth chin, and finally smiled with satisfaction.
The only downside is that it's a little darker than before.
But in the eyes of others, he is already fair enough. It is difficult to find anyone fairer than him on this street.
Cheng Zhongqian was in a good mood and didn't mind replying: "The boss has good craftsmanship."
After glancing at Cheng Yun, Cheng Yun consciously took out the coins from his arms.
After shaving, Cheng Zhongqian felt his whole face relaxed, with a faint smile on his face, and his peach blossom eyes looked passionate.
Pedestrians on the road couldn't help but look over. This father and son are so good-looking. Why do they look so good when walking?
I went to the bookstore to return the books, and the boss was equally surprised: "Who is this?"
"This is my father." Cheng Yun said as he gave the copybook to his boss, and at the same time, an idea came to his mind.
Cheng Yun copied carefully, without a single typo, and the page was clean without any stains. The boss liked this the most, so he gave Cheng Yun the promised payment without any delay.
"Boss, can my dad also give it a try?" Cheng Yun asked calmly.
Cheng Zhongqian instantly understood what Cheng Yun meant and looked at his boss.
Of course this is possible. The boss still asked Cheng Zhongqian to try writing it. He can only say that he is worthy of being a father and son. The characters are all first-rate and beautiful.
Cheng Yun coughed lightly and said a little embarrassedly: "Boss, my father is going to take the imperial examination. When giving him books, can you give him more books in the Four Books category?"
"Cheng Langjun wants to take the imperial examination?" The boss handed over his hand in admiration. In their small place, there are not many scholars, and there are even fewer people who want to take the imperial examination. Everyone is worthy of admiration, "Of course. In the future, Cheng Langjun will pass the examination and be promoted.
Just don’t forget the little shop.”
Invisibly, his attitude became better.
So, during this trip to the bookstore, the father and son each bought a book and a set of paper and pen.
"Cheng Langjun, Cheng Xiaolangjun, walk slowly."
After coming out, Cheng Yun inquired about the location of the county school again. Before asking, he was really worried that there wasn't even a county school here.
The county school is not far from the county government office and only one mile away from the most prosperous place.
The entrance qualifications for county schools in Feng'an County are lower than those in other places. Other places require a scholar to pass the examination, but the county school in Feng'an County only needs to pass the children's examination.
Cheng Zhongqian frowned: "It seems like we have to wait until August next year?"
The annual children's examination meeting is hosted by the county magistrate in August.
Cheng Yun said helplessly: "Yes."
"It's too long." Cheng Zhongqian was dissatisfied.
He wished he could grow wings and fly to the capital.
There is nothing you can do if you are dissatisfied.
Walking on the village road, when I was almost home, I saw a small figure sitting at the door from a distance, holding her cheek and looking into the distance.
When he saw them, he jumped up and spread his limbs: "Brother, daddy, you are finally back!"
The king who was lying on the side munching the steamed bun suddenly raised his head, then lowered his head, "Brother, it's okay, this steamed bun is really dry!"
"Brother, Lingbao misses you so much."
Lingbao threw himself into Chengyun's arms, looked up at him with tears in his eyes, and complained: "My elder brother disappeared as soon as I woke up. I need to tell Lingbao."
Cheng Yun: "I'm afraid of waking you up."
"Hmm~ Lingbao is not afraid of being woken up." Lingbao pouted, "You have to tell me next time."
"Okay, I remember."
Cheng Zhongqian didn't bother to look at the two crooked siblings and simply passed them by.
"Dad, have you shaved?" Ling Bao only saw his back and ran after him.
The king raised his head with the bun in his mouth, and then the bun fell from his mouth, meow!
"Lingbao, you are right, your father is really a handsome man!"
Ling Bao hadn't seen it yet, and his legs fell faster.
He chased after Cheng Zhongqian and grabbed Cheng Zhongqian's hand. When he stopped and looked up, his eyes suddenly became round and he responded with the most sincere response: "Good-looking daddy..."
She suddenly giggled: "I knew you must be my daddy."
Exactly like the dad in the dream!
"Daddy, you are so beautiful." Ling Bao said happily.
He is a perfect match for his beautiful mother, he is talented and beautiful!
"I'm going to find Sister Guoguo. This time she sees it with her own eyes and knows that what I said is true."
