Shopkeeper Tian is right. You must know that from the small mountain village where Gong Jian lives now to the town, except for the fixed morning and evening oxcart trips, you can only rely on walking. It takes an hour for most people to travel.
Gong Jian is young and strong, and can walk very fast, so every time he can shorten the time by half compared to others. But even so, it is overwhelming to drive back and forth in one day. But if their family moves to the county town
If they live there, it will be different. There are horse-drawn carriages that can be rented, and the time actually takes is much shorter than when they live in a mountain village.
This was the first time that Blacksmith Wang knew that Gong Jian and the others were actually moving. Last time, Shopkeeper Tian only said that Gong Jian went to the county town to do business, but did not tell him that he planned to move his family to the county.
Blacksmith Wang couldn't help but said from the side: "Boss Gong, why do you think of moving to the county? Could it be that your family doesn't get along well with the village leaders?"
In Wang Tiejiang's heart, he always felt that his hometown was hard to leave. He did not expect that such a young young man as Gong Jian would actually think of moving his entire family to the county. It was a completely unfamiliar environment. This young man really looked like,
As Brother Tian said, if you have the courage, dare to attack and do something.
But when Blacksmith Wang thought about the new things designed by Gong Jian, he felt that it was natural for a while. It is also true that people who dare not think or do it would not be able to invent such new things.
When Gong Jian saw that Blacksmith Wang had some misunderstandings, he quickly explained: "It's not that we don't get along well with the people in the village. It's mainly because our family's situation is a bit special. That's why I thought it would be more convenient to move to the county."
Shopkeeper Tian knew the special situation of Gong Jian and his family. He had even been to Gong Jian and his family and knew everyone in their family. So when he heard the conversation between these two people, he already knew Gong Jian's answer.
Therefore, Shopkeeper Tian greeted the two of them like the master here and went into the house with him, "Okay, you two, don't stay here at the door. Come into the house with me, sit down and talk slowly.
It's so cold outside, but you two are really strong and hot-tempered, aren't you?"
Blacksmith Wang didn't care about Shopkeeper Tian's attitude. In his opinion, his brother was no different from his own family members.
At this time, he saw Shopkeeper Tian greeting him and Gong Jian as the owner, and he hurriedly said smoothly: "Okay, let's go into the house and say, I made a pot of good tea there."
Hearing him talk about the good tea, shopkeeper Tian who was leading the way couldn't help but snorted, "What good tea can you get here? And you, a rough guy, don't know how to drink tea."
Blacksmith Wang didn't give in to Shopkeeper Tian at all: "Why, you old man knows that I don't have good tea here. The reason for the lack of good tea is that there are no guests worthy of good tea. Every time you come, I never have to worry about what to serve."
Good tea.”
Shopkeeper Tian snorted, "Hey, why do you think I'm so weird?"
Gong Jian watched the two people walking into the house, quarreling constantly, and had to sigh with emotion, their relationship was really good.
After the three of them were all seated in the room, Blacksmith Wang served the tea that he said was good. The tea was indeed good. As soon as it was poured out, the aroma of tea filled the room.
Shopkeeper Tian was sipping the tea. He was really not good at it and couldn't tell whether it was good or bad. But he also knew that Blacksmith Wang was just like him. Neither of them was good at tea ceremony.
Looking at the guy Gong Jian, although he said he was enjoying the drink, he didn't say anything about tasting it. Shopkeeper Tian felt that the guy Gong Jian was completely the same type of person as the two of them. He didn't like this tea at all.
I don't know how good it is.
When he thought about the good tea that Blacksmith Wang specially brought out, but no one like him appreciated it, Shopkeeper Tian felt secretly happy for a while.
Of course Gong Jian didn't understand the tea ceremony. He could taste it. This tea was indeed different from the tea that shopkeeper Wang served them before, and it was much better than the tea he usually drank.
But he also knew that neither Shopkeeper Tian nor Blacksmith Wang was good at this. So, he just sipped the tea slowly and did not comment. Anyway, those two people didn't care about it.
Seeing that Gong Jian was concentrating on drinking tea, Blacksmith Wang hadn't given up on the previous topic. He couldn't help but ask again: "Boss Gong, what did you say about your family's situation just now? Why do you have to move and leave the village?"
Shopkeeper Tian had never told him about the situation in Gong Jian's family before. At this time, Blacksmith Wang really didn't understand what happened that forced Gong Jian to leave his hometown and settle down in a completely unfamiliar place.
Although he felt that even if Gong Jian moved to the county, it would be more convenient to go to the town. But he was a little curious. There were really not many people around him who had such great courage and could say that they were moving.
Just move and leave your homeland.
When Gong Jian heard Blacksmith Wang's question, he knew that Blacksmith Wang was out of curiosity, and Gong Jian didn't resent him asking this question. The situation of his family was indeed different from that of the people in the village. At least, they were not relying on
Life on the land in the village. Gong Jian put down his tea cup and then began to answer Blacksmith Wang's questions seriously.
"Uncle Wang, it's like this. My father suffered some injuries a few years ago. Although he has healed better these years, he is still unable to walk. It will be more convenient for him to see a doctor if we move to the county.
After all, there is only one old doctor in our village, and he can do nothing about my father's disease."
Blacksmith Wang nodded over there. If there were patients at home, then moving to the county would be more convenient for treating the patients. But he heard Gong Jian continue to say.
"Another point is that my brother is already quite old this year. In the past few years, due to various reasons, the original private school in the village has been dissolved for several years. I moved my family to the county mainly because I wanted to
My younger brother can attend a private school in the county."
When Blacksmith Wang heard what he said, he immediately widened his eyes and stared at Gong Jian: "What, your family still wants to provide a champion?"
Gong Jian smiled softly and then said: "How can it be so easy to get the No. 1 Scholar exam? Uncle Wang, I don't expect my brother to get the No. 1 Scholar. I just hope that he can read more books and be able to understand some words and understand some words.
Being deceived by others. More importantly, it can give him more insights."
When Blacksmith Wang first heard from Gong Jian that he wanted to send his younger brother to a private school, his first reaction was of course that he wanted to train his younger brother to take the exam for merit.
Gong Jian's younger brother was a very honest child that he had met last time. However, Blacksmith Wang did not think that the child had the talent to study. (To be continued)
