Chapter 214 My family was sensible when she was a child
During the cold winter, every village has the custom of cat winter, especially on snowy days...,
As soon as the snowflakes fell, there was ice and snow everywhere, and the villages and alleys became empty. The villagers had finished working on the crops in the fields, and most of them sat around the bedside or beside the stove doing some sewing and mending, even if the sky fell.
They don't want to take a step out.
But today, Xiahe Village was an exception. Although snowflakes were flying outside and the north wind was howling, the cold air did not freeze people's enthusiasm. The entire Xiahe Village was bustling with lively cheers.
What caused the abnormality in Xiahe Village was one thing: the thirteen-year-old son of Zhu Shouyi's family passed the imperial examination.
After the messenger who announced the good news set off firecrackers at the head of the village early in the morning, the excitement in the whole village never calmed down. Even after the messenger who announced the good news collected the red envelopes, mounted his fast horse and left Xiahe Village, Xiahe Village was still a sea of excitement.
Zhu Ping'an's house was full of people, and the yard was also crowded.
In addition to the folks from the countryside, the grandparents, third uncles and aunts, the slim little Yu'er, the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt, as well as the eldest aunt and Zhu Pingjun are all at Zhu Ping'an's house, except that the uncle Zhu Shouren was absent. Well, the uncle Zhu Shouren was absent yesterday.
I caught a cold after reading late at night, and was "recuperating" under the quilt in my old house. But in the eyes of the villagers, my uncle Zhu Shouren was too shameless to come over and pretended to be sick.
Grandfather was sitting in the house, smoking a dry pipe, listening to the congratulations of the villagers, and he was happy but couldn't help but sigh a few times. As for the fourth uncle and the fourth aunt, they were walking happily among the villagers, but the grandmother and eldest aunt were a little agitated.
Not very happy, with a sour taste, if possible, they would prefer the uncle to be the winner.
Although the villagers congratulated Zhu Ping'an's family, they also congratulated the people in the Zhu family's old home. However, there were still many villagers in the yard secretly thinking about the Zhu family's separation ten years ago, secretly laughing at the fact that their grandfather must have been the original one.
Regret has broken my intestines.
If the family had not been separated, wouldn't the grandpa and his family be a hundred times more glorious than they are now? The eldest son, whom he had hoped for at the time, was not even admitted as a scholar. The second son, who was forced to take the blame, not only became rich, but his grandson not only became a scholar within a year, but also became a middle-ranking scholar.
In addition to the promotion of status and so on, the benefits of winning the lottery are exemption from taxes and corvee. It is a pity that in order to take care of the reputation of the boss, the Zhu family's old house insisted on calling the village chief and others to divide the family, and all of them were registered in the county.
You can no longer enjoy this kind of benefit! Everyone in the Zhu family’s house probably regrets it because they haven’t been able to eat in the past few days.
The happiest people were Zhu Ping'an's parents and brothers, especially his mother Chen, who was so happy that she didn't know how to close her mouth.
"His second aunt, you are the master of judging people. You are really enviable. Can you tell us how you train people to be judged?"
The villagers asked Zhu Ping'an's mother, Mrs. Chen, with envy, curiosity and compliments.
Hearing this, the smile on mother Chen's face became even brighter, and she waved her hands humbly, but her voice had nothing to do with humility:
"I don't know how to raise him, I just raise him like everyone else. But don't tell me, my piggy has been sensible since he was a child. When he was only two years old, he was sensible enough to feel sorry for his mother."
Hearing this, the villagers were curious and complimentary and asked repeatedly how the only and unique Juren master in Hecun Village became sensible when he was two years old.
When Mrs. Chen heard this, her chin almost went up to the sky, and she looked so proud of her son, "You don't know. Our family is safe and we have been sensible since we were young. When we were only two years old, we were still in swaddling clothes."
Well, life was not going well at that time. I once had a quarrel with your second brother at home, and even though your second brother was honest, he always made me angry. At that time, I was so angry that I cried.
The baby is still here. Guess what?"
"What's going on? Hahaha, the second sister-in-law beat the second brother." Some villagers shouted, making everyone laugh.
When everyone's laughter ended, Ms. Chen shook her head and continued with a proud and happy face, "He is rough-skinned and thick-skinned. I have to hurt my hand when I hit him. At that time, our piggy
, he is only two years old, and when he sees me crying, he will pull out the diaper from the swaddling clothes and wipe my tears."
He's only two years old, so he doesn't know how to feel sorry for others. When he was a child, Shi'er was very stubborn. It wasn't until he recovered from his illness at the age of five that he became sensible. At two years old, he hasn't even been weaned yet, so he doesn't know how to do anything!
"He's in a pee hole." Father Zhu couldn't bear to listen anymore and couldn't help but interject.
Then the whole courtyard burst into laughter with good intentions, and the atmosphere was full of happiness.
Mrs. Chen was in high spirits. When Father Zhu threw cold water on her, Mrs. Chen naturally gave up. She glared at the innocent-looking Zhu Shouyi so hard that he bowed his head like a quail.
Then, like a victorious rooster, Mrs. Chen continued to share with the villagers the story of how Zhu Ping'an was smart, sensible, diligent and committed to learning when he was a child. The villagers also listened with gusto and echoed Mr. Chen's words with envy.
, and then Mrs. Chen became even more energetic, praising Zhu Pingan as the only one in the world. If Zhu Pingan were here, he would definitely blush after hearing this.
Chen was not the only one to praise Zhu Pingan. On the other side, Zhu Pingjun ignored his mother's bad expression and told the villagers about Zhu Pingan's childhood. Of course, he was involved in the story, some positive and some negative.
, but Zhu Pingjun didn't care. He was frothing at the mouth when he said it. This person is also crazy. He hasn't enjoyed the feeling of being supported by everyone for a long time.
"Let me tell you, my brother didn't have a chance in the Tongsheng Examination. Just because one of our senior brothers suddenly had something happen to his family, and he had to stay at home. Does Ding You understand? It's because of the filial piety that a spot became available.
Master originally wanted me to go, but I said, no, let Brother He go, and Brother He just went. Otherwise, Brother He would not be where he is today."
"Don't believe it, it's true. Why give it to Brother He? Because Brother He is a little smarter than me. Let me tell you something from when I was a child. When I was a child, Brother He and I were close and we basically always played together.
.
One time Brother He wanted to go to the mountains to pick fruits with Brother Dachuan. I wanted to play with him again, but Brother He wanted to go with Brother Dachuan to pick fruits. So Brother He told me to play a hide-and-seek game.
If you can't find it, you have to keep looking, and you must not come out on your own."
Speaking of this, Zhu Pingjun looked up at the sky forty-five degrees with a sigh on his face.
"That day, I lay down and hid in the pile of firewood for a long time, until my mother made dinner and lit the fire."
At this moment, the eldest aunt on the side wanted to push her son, the fortune-telling star Wenquxing, to the earth and beat him up. This shameless thing
On this day, the entire Xiahe Village has been lively all day, and the villagers gradually dispersed in the evening. People from the Zhu family's old house stayed at Zhu Ping'an's house for dinner, and did not follow Xueming back to their old house until dark. (Unfinished)
