In order to pass the exam, the original owner added the character "中" (中) in the names of his children when naming them, which is the middle school in high school.
Therefore, the names of their children seem a bit strange. Wang Tengzhong and Wang Junzhong also complained about this from time to time, and even scolded the original owner because of the name.
On the contrary, the two daughters are quite filial, and even though these two names are more unfriendly to girls, they have never made any noise because of it.
After preparing some food, Song Fulu planned to go hunting some hares and pheasants in the surrounding fields to improve his life. Otherwise, the clear soup and lack of water every day would not be able to support his consumption.
Song Fulu also needs to prepare some dried meat and the like to prepare for going to Datong County to take the college examination next month.
After leaving the thatched house, he was immediately spotted by several neighbors who were chatting outside the door, and they started pointing at him.
"Why did that old boy come out? He should take the hospital exam next month. Are you still in the mood to go out and have fun?"
"I probably felt that I couldn't pass the exam, so I broke the pot."
"Isn't this obvious? Did he just find out now, haha."
……
The stubborn and poor original owner had obviously become a joke among the neighbors. Song Fulu was too lazy to pay attention to these people and walked quickly towards a forest outside the town.
Binghu Town is surrounded by plains and there are no mountains, so you can only go to the woods outside the town to find game, and there are very few other places.
Song Fulu randomly picked up some rocks and walked into the lush woods, looking for the whereabouts of the game.
"Pa..."
Soon Song Fulu found a hare, and hit it with a fist-sized stone in an instant. Thousand-Hand Guanyin had been practiced to the extreme by Song Fulu. It could be said that he was able to kill the hare easily, and it was infinitely better than other people's bows and arrows.
times.
Song Fulu picked up the hare, put it in the sack behind him, and continued walking deeper into the woods.
"Pah, pah, pah, pah..."
Wherever the stones passed, pheasants, hares, wild birds... and even a wild deer were killed by Song Fulu and became his food.
Song Fulu found a small river, processed all the game by the river, and rushed home with about three hundred kilograms of pure meat.
Consciously avoid the crowd, otherwise if you are seen, someone might come and steal it.
Although the people of Leguo are not poor, they cannot eat meat every day. It is good if they can eat it once a month. If they see him hunting so much meat, it will definitely cause a sensation and attract thieves.
It is better to do less than to do more. Song Fulu is not willing to see this situation.
Taking advantage of the darkness, Song Fulu quietly returned home and began to process the meat. At the same time, he cooked a piece of venison for himself, which tasted pretty good.
In the following dozens of days, Song Fulu hunted some more game and sold some of it in disguise, in exchange for some copper coins and silver taels.
When preparing to go to Datong County to take the exam, Song Fulu saw that he had accumulated more than 500 kilograms of dried meat, so he took out 200 kilograms and rushed to his eldest daughter Li Juanzhong's home a few miles away.
Although the original owner was a bit stubborn, because he was one of the three reading seeds of the Li family, there were still many good girls who were willing to marry him when he was young. Therefore, the original owner's first wife was not only virtuous, but also quite beautiful, and the children he gave birth to were also good-looking.
He is handsome and good-looking.
The two daughters married into decent families, considered to be middle-class and upper-class families in the village. Otherwise, they would not have been able to support them for so many years.
But even so, because of this incident, the status of the two daughters in the husband's family is not very good, and they are often scolded by the husband's family.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Li Juanzhong's husband's house, Song Fulu saw his mother-in-law, Wang Xiang, and was about to say hello. His mother-in-law, Wang Xiang, rolled her eyes at him and turned around to leave. She also closed the courtyard door at the same time, making it clear that she wanted to thank the guests.
Song Fulu smiled helplessly and understood quite well. After all, in this world, sons generally provide for the elderly, and daughters do not have much obligation to provide for the elderly. However, in their family, it is obviously the daughter who provides for the elderly, and the two sons basically ignore it.
It's strange that his in-laws could treat him under such circumstances.
Song Fulu could only knock on the door, and soon his eldest daughter came to open the door. No one else showed up, obviously too lazy to see him.
"Dad, why are you here? You have to take the exam at the hospital next month. Why don't you study more? I'm going to go home in a few days and get you some money." Li Juanzhong looked dignified and looked at it.
This makes people feel a sense of intimacy. At this moment, he looked at Song Fulu worriedly.
Song Fulu put a sack of dried meat in front of her: "This is some game I hunted. I made it into dried meat and brought you some. Don't worry about the cost. I sold some game to make up for it. No need to buy more."
Got it."
"Ah... did my father catch game?" Li Juanzhong's eyes widened and she looked at Song Fulu in disbelief. She soon realized that her father was a little different. He seemed to be much stronger and younger than the last time he saw her.
.
Song Fulu nodded with a smile: "My father accidentally bought a martial arts secret book a few days ago, so he followed it and wanted to exercise. Unexpectedly, he was gifted in this area, and he soon got results. Now he can easily
Three or five people can't even get close to me."
"This... Dad is so awesome." Although Li Juanzhong was a little skeptical, looking at Song Fulu's healthy and strong appearance, she had no choice but to believe it. There was no other explanation.
Song Fulu smiled and touched her head: "I wronged you before. Now that my father has this martial arts, he will be able to eat and drink without worries even if he is just a hunter. He won't have to come to support my father anymore. Moreover, the next college examination will be held."
Maybe dad can give you a surprise."
"As long as Dad can take care of himself, it's what we should do to support Dad." Li Juanzhong's eyes turned red: "But Dad should be more careful. It is said that as a hunter, you will encounter ferocious animals, and your life will be fatal if you are not careful.
Danger."
Song Fulu nodded: "I understand, don't worry, it's time for me to go to your sister's house. You can go back."
"Daddy, let's go after dinner." Li Juanzhong stopped him.
Song Fulu shook his head: "It's still early, so I won't eat."
Before Li Juanzhong could say anything else, Song Fulu left quickly. Seeing his father walking as fast as flying, Li Juanzhong was also surprised. It seemed that his father had really learned martial arts and exercised his body.
"Has your father left? Did he come to borrow money again to take the college entrance examination?"
At this time, husband-in-law Zhu Lei came over, and his parents-in-law stood not far away and watched.
Li Juanzhong wiped her eyes, shook her head and said, "Dad didn't borrow any money. He came to get us some dried meat. Look how much there is."
"Dried meat?" Zhu Lei's eyes widened, and his father-in-law and mother-in-law also came over quickly: "Where did he get the dried meat? Did he go to school to teach, so he had money to buy these?"
"This much dried meat, at least two hundred kilograms, is enough for us to eat for a long time."
Zhu Lei couldn't help but exclaimed, looking at a large bag of dried meat in a daze.
My father-in-law and mother-in-law were also shocked. They hurriedly came to the sack, checked it and smiled.
"My in-laws are so polite. They actually brought so much dried meat, and it was all game."
"Game dried meat is not cheap. We won't be able to earn so much for several years. My in-laws are too good."
……
Her attitude towards Li Juanzhong immediately improved a few notches, which made Li Juanzhong's eyes turn redder. She understood what her father meant. All the grievances she had suffered in the past were gone and no longer existed.
Although my father is a bit stubborn, he has treated them very well over the years and has not favored boys over girls. He even did not ask for much betrothal gifts when they got married, even though he knew that his two younger brothers did not have much money to marry at that time.
In the case of giving birth to a child.
The reason why Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong were so harsh on their father is also related to the fact that they didn't ask for much betrothal gift when they got married.
The two younger brothers wanted their father to ask her husband's family for some betrothal gifts, but their father refused, saying that he did not raise his daughter for business, but only asked for some symbolic gifts.
The two younger brothers were very dissatisfied with this, and even had a quarrel with their father because of this. Although they later got married, they still resented this matter and were unwilling to support their parents.
The reason why Li Juanzhong and Li Panzhong shouldered the obligation to support their parents is also related to this incident.
From the memory of the original owner, Song Fulu also knew about this matter, and he also felt that the original owner did a good job and was quite good in this regard.
Even in modern society, daughters only have the obligation to support their parents and have no obligation to support their younger brothers. These two idiots, Li Tengzhong and Li Junzhong, are selfish and always want to take advantage of their sisters. They are really unworthy of human beings.
.
The original owner did a pretty good job in filial piety, but I don’t know how he raised these two dogs.
However, they did not support their parents before, and they will not be able to enjoy the benefits brought by Song Fulu in the future.
Back home, Song Fulu took more than two hundred kilograms of dried meat and rushed towards the home of his youngest daughter Li Panzhong.
After receiving the dried meat from her father, her younger daughter Li Panzhong also burst into tears. Compared to her eldest daughter's parents-in-law, her younger daughter's parents-in-law are more aggressive. In order to support her parents over the years, Li Panzhong has suffered more injustices.
Much.
Now that her father finally made her feel proud and proud, Li Pan felt happy and distressed in her heart, insisting on keeping her father to eat.
However, Li Panzhong still has no hope that Song Fulu can pass the college examination.
After returning home, Song Fulu packed up and rushed to Datong County with his things. The academic examination was held in Datong County. Once passed, Song Fulu would be qualified to become a scholar and have the power to exempt most of the taxes, which was considered preliminary.
Entering the privileged class.
As a scholar, he can have hundreds of acres of land under his name, and these lands only need to pay a tenth of the tax, and the rest is enough to live on, and more than enough.
After being admitted as a scholar, Song Fulu planned to put all the property of his two daughters' families in his name, so that he could pay less taxes and make his two daughters' lives easier.
There are still about ten days before the start of the college examination. It is several hundred miles from Binghu Town to Datong County, which is enough for Song Fulu to walk to Datong County.
When he left with his book basket on his back, many neighbors saw him.
"Haha, that old boy went to take the hospital exam again. He is really free and has no fear of being eaten by tigers and wolves on the way."
"It should have been about twenty times. This old boy is really tireless."
"No need to guess, I will definitely not be on the list this time. It's just a waste of time, money and food."
……
Song Fulu ignored these neighbors who were watching the joke and hurried towards Datong County. He was wearing a standard scholar's robe, blue and gray, which is also the standard outfit of most children.
With Song Fulu's current physical fitness, he could walk more than a hundred miles a day, and this was at a slower pace.
On the way, we stayed overnight in a dilapidated temple. There were already two scholars inside, both accompanied by book boys, and they were dressed more elegantly than Song Fulu.
Seeing Song Fulu, the two young children were a little surprised.
"My husband, you are also going to take the college examination?"
"You didn't take Shutong with you. Can you bear the journey?"
……
Looking at the two young boys under twenty years old, Song Fulu smiled and said: "Yes, although I am older, I have to live and learn."
Song Fulu's words made the two boys in awe, and they quickly called him over to warm themselves by the fire.
"What my father-in-law said is very true, live and learn. This sentence is so profound."
"My father-in-law is truly a man of knowledge and action. I wonder how many times this is the first time he has participated in the college examination?"
……
After learning that Song Fulu had participated in more than 20 college examinations and still failed to pass the examination, the expressions of the two young students became a little strange. This is really a matter of living and learning. No, it should be that of living and studying.
, he’s just an old boy who failed the exams many times, and yet he talks so nicely.
His attitude towards Song Fulu also became a little cold. Song Fulu didn't care, he just took out the dried meat, made a pot of broth and ate it cleanly.
After a good night's sleep, Song Fulu set out early the next morning. While passing through the mountains and forests on the road, Song Fulu also picked some wild vegetables and mushrooms, and made soup with dried meat at noon. The taste was actually very good. p>
It took several days for Song Fulu to arrive at Datong County. Datong County is slightly larger than the county town in the previous life on Earth. It has a population of only a few hundred thousand, but it is already the most prosperous city within a hundred miles.
As the college examination approaches, the place is more lively than before, but it is only relatively speaking, and for Song Fulu, it is just average.
This is a very ordinary ancient society. Except for its more prosperous culture, other aspects are not much different from the ancient times of the earth.
After selling a lot of prey, Song Fulu also had money in his pocket. He found an inn near the examination room. In addition to reading the Four Books and Five Classics of this world for a while every day, he spent the rest of the time wandering around the county town and enjoying the special delicacies here.
.
Although materials in ancient society were a bit expensive, the hard-working people of Leguo still used limited materials to develop a variety of delicious delicacies, some of which even surprised Song Fulu.
For example, a delicacy called meat tofu can actually make tofu look like meat, and is more delicious than ordinary meat. It is fat-free, low in calories, and rich in protein. In the previous life, it would have been popular all over the world.
