Zhou Sheng's father is still not completely reassured, so even though he is happy in his heart, he still maintains a skeptical attitude on the surface. Don't lie to me, head of the family. You also know that I don't usually care about these things. If you say
I lied now
I don’t know if I can find out if I go to someone else’s house to inquire in the future. If you really lied to me, you’d better confess now. I won’t pursue it too much and let me find out that you lied to me later.
If so, then we are not done yet.
I knew that my mother-in-law must be so tough on her words, but she was actually not sure what she was thinking in her heart. However, Zhou Sheng's father did not expose this matter. Instead, he said seriously, "Oh my god, I told you lies."
What are you doing? Everyone knows this. If you go out and ask anyone, anyone who knows the matter will definitely tell you the same thing as me. There is no point in lying to you at this time.
It wasn't until she heard this assurance from her man that Zhou Sheng's mother was completely relieved, and finally a smile appeared on her face. If the head of the family is really like what you said, that would be great. I have never done anything like this in my life.
I never thought that one day I would be sitting at home and someone would come to my door with money in hand to beg me.
What does the father who was born want to say in his heart to ask people to come to your door with money to beg you? What they are begging for is a scholar, so what does it mean to beg you? But it is obvious that these words can only be fiddled with in his heart, and he does not dare to say them.
Come out, so I can only nod in response.
But Zhou Sheng's mother was obviously not very satisfied with her man's reaction. She curled her lips, "Why do you still have any objections? Isn't this what you just said?"
It is said that the answer of the Father's Alliance is yes, yes, that is indeed what I said just now. After the second child becomes a scholar, those people will naturally come to our door for help, and then our family's livelihood will not have to worry about it.
, so now you know how important it is to let your second child study, right?
The implication of Zhou Sheng's father was, of course, that since the second son's education is very important, then you should stop deducting the money from his education. Obviously, the mother also heard the subtext of her man.
, so when he heard this, he was still in a happy mood, but suddenly he became gloomy again.
Of course, after Zhou Sheng became a scholar, people came to him with money to beg him for help. Although he was not in such a good mood this time, he did not react as strongly as before.
After hesitating again and again, Zhou Zheng's mother finally made up her mind to drop money directly from the sky and have someone accompany her with a smiling face and hold the money to beg her. He slapped the table and then said through gritted teeth,
Okay, I understand, the second child must study
I support it, but if all that money is used, it will be too much for secondary studies. He can't use it at all now. After all, he hasn't obtained any honors. But I know that this scholar still had some exams before.
Anyway, he can't use so much money now.
Seeing that after all the talk, his mother-in-law still wanted to deduct money from his son's education, the father who enrolled him was almost furious. Seeing him so anxious, Zhou Sheng's mother said okay as if to comfort him.
, I know it is very important for the second child to study, so I will not keep all the money, but leave another fifty taels for him to study. This is quite generous. You must know that these fifty taels can last for our family for a year.
Of eating and drinking.
Hearing that Wednesday's mother still decided to leave 50 taels of money for his youngest son's education, Zhou Sheng's father had no choice but to agree to this compromise. He also knew that this would actually cost his mother-in-law one tael of money.
Even a copper coin is very difficult. As long as he feels that there is no need to spend money, he would rather those coins stink in his pocket than give it to others or his family.
This time, I was able to generously give fifty taels to my younger son as a reserve fund for his studies. The most important reason was because of the wonderful prospects I just described, which allowed this woman to generously recall Zhou Sheng's life here.
The father could only sigh deeply, who asked his parents to give him such a wife.
At this time, Zhou Sheng's father could only pray that his youngest son could stand up for himself and gain fame within the scope of spending one hundred and fifty taels of silver. If one day he goes underground, his parents will blame him for this matter.
If so, then he has something to say. Anyway, this daughter-in-law was chosen by her parents, and he didn't have to marry her.
The two people in the room had reached an agreement, and Zhou Sheng's mother kept telling Zhou Sheng's father about the beautiful and desirable prospects that his younger son would have if he could pass the exam and become a scholar.
After talking for a long time, Zhou Sheng's mother suddenly said: Hey, I'm talking about the head of the family, do you think that if our youngest son really gets some merit and honors, will he really turn his back on others?
He now understood in his heart that if someone came to ask for money, it was definitely not him. If his son really wanted to get the rest of the family out of the way, it was not impossible. So at the beginning, Zhou Sheng's father said that
After all, he is his son who is closest to him, so he should not do such a treacherous thing, but nothing can be done to prevent this. Thinking of this, Zhou Zheng's mother couldn't help but hesitate again.
Zhou Sheng's father was helpless. He talked to him so much, and finally finally agreed and asked the woman to set aside fifty taels for his youngest son to study. Then he spent so much effort painting for him.
I ordered a piece of pie, I just hope that this woman
I will be able to make things easier for my younger son in the future, but I didn’t expect that this woman would go around in circles and return to the original question. Could it be that he still used the same reason to persuade him? Obviously, this woman is no longer as easy to persuade as she was just now.
.
Zhou Sheng's father speculated in his heart that maybe he should take a strong dose of medicine, otherwise this woman would have to worry about whether she would sleep tonight.
Zhou Sheng's father knew that if he didn't give this woman a strong dose of medicine tonight, he would not let him go to bed very late. This was the problem that would never end. However, Zhou Sheng's father had long been used to it and had to sleep on it every day.
It took more than eighteen hours for him to
He didn't want to spend such a night with his mother-in-law on this issue, so he could only evaluate it for a long time and then immediately said, what's so difficult about this? In fact, you don't have to worry at all.
