Lin Fangqin stretched out his hand to touch a golden silk tea seedling, and then said: I originally planned to wait for your hospital to try it, and then go to find out where there is a tea mountain to sell, and it is too small to collect loose tea.Lin Fangxu naturally knew his plans, the eldest brother in the previous life also bought a tea mountain, ran a tea plantation, and the green tea Wuyi Spring Rain made by the eldest brother-in-law later occupied a place in the Hangzhou Famous Tea Tasting.It's just that I didn't know that the eldest brother planned to buy Chashan so early, and in the last life, he bought it four years later when he won the show, and I think that in the eldest brother's heart, his imperial examination career is the first.Lin Fangxu saw that the eldest brother grabbed a handful of soil, and if he realized something, he smiled and said: It seems that the eldest brother has found the tea mountain he wants to buy.Lin Fangqin also smiled: Yes, what I found is not in front of my house.Lin Fangxu thought about the large piece of land at the top of the slope, and said worriedly: Big brother, do we have enough money?
Lin Fangqin rolled his eyes, and said angrily: Don't worry about it, you have been a big brother for more than ten years, you can't get in and out, you won't lose your chicken leg money, and I don't know where to eat, why don't you grow one.Lin Fangxu: After the two brothers went home, Lin Fangqin went back to the room, Zhao Shiyue was guarding Mumu who was taking a nap, and when he saw him come in, he said: Why did you come back at this time, and there was lunch left in the kitchen, but you can eat it?
Lin Fangqin took out the box where his husband put the money, and said: After eating, Yueyue will help me open the box first, and I will see how much money I have at home.Xianggong wants to know, just ask me.As he spoke, he opened the box, took out one of the purses, handed it to him, and said: This is the money in the family, with the savings that my mother has given me for many years, the income from the land every year, and the money earned from selling tea with the income from the land over the years, and the expenses of the family, there are still 15,600 taels in total.As he spoke, he took another purse and said: This is the monthly money that Xiang Gong has been working as an accountant in the past few years, and the money he earned from selling tea with the monthly money, a total of 3,200 taels.After speaking, he smiled and pointed to another purse and said: This is my dowry, so I won't show it to my husband.Lin Fangqin scratched his nose and said with a smile: Promote narrowness!
I'm going to buy a hill to grow tea and see if I have enough money.Zhao Shiyue said happily: Really!
See?
Where is it?
Lin Fangqin always felt that his husband could be entrusted with the important task, so he told him that Brother Xu saw that scene.Zhao Shiyue gradually frowned when she heard this, and said worriedly: This is a cash cow, and it is also a big trouble, to avoid someone going up the mountain and accidentally discovering it, you have to buy the mountain first.Lin Fangqin rubbed his brows and said: Yes, I will go to the county government tomorrow, buy the entire mountain, first plant a circle of thorns to surround it, and lay ordinary tea seedlings in the middle of the village, and then transplant golden silk tea on the cliff side after two years.Zhao Shiyue put the money box back and said: I'm afraid this tea won't be able to appear in the world for a short time.Lin Fangqin's expression was inexplicable, and he said quietly: The unique golden silk tea in the entire Great Wei is not something that anyone can afford to drink, if Brother Xu can't get into the Jinshi, my Lin family can't afford to grow it, and I will burn it myself at that time.After winning the show, you have to go to the county school and the government school to study, and the ranking of the college examination determines where you go, the top 50 go to the government school, and the rest go to the county and county to study.When Lin Fangqin went to the county government office the next day, Lin Fangxu went to the mansion with Lin Fangmao's cousin who returned to the village to attend the banquet.Jinhua Mansion School opened on the first day of July, and early in the morning, Lin Chenggui arranged for a small servant to follow Lin Fangxu to the Mansion Palace.Different from the West Lake hairpin banquet, Lin Fangxu, a freshman in the school with the name of Xiao Sanyuan, can be said to be infinitely beautiful, just walked to the gate, and met a group of people of the same year, who saw him and said: Senior brother, these people are the same as Lin Fangxu, wearing Confucian scarves and Confucian robes, but they are of different ages, some are in their thirties, some are in their twenties, in short, they are older than Lin Fangxu, but because he is the leader, they all have to call him senior brother.Lin Fangxu was embraced by the stars like a moon, and when he met Shen Jing on the way, he seemed to be waiting there, and when Lin Fangxu approached, Shen Jing said casually: Little senior brother is early, I don't know if the little senior brother has eaten breakfast, the junior brother thinks that the little brother should let the kitchen make more goat milk soup in the future, so as not to grow taller in the future, and always look like a little brother.Lin Fangxu glanced at him lightly, raised his eyebrows and said: Thank you Senior Brother for your kindness, Senior Brother specially waited here, do you want to ask how to get the head of the case?
The senior brother suggested that the senior brother should study the "Book of Rites" again, and maybe he could get a small three yuan when he retook the exam next time.Poof, the people next to him covered their mouths and laughed.I thought to myself that these two people, one with a mouth and a smile, were short, and they had not yet been weaned; A poisonous mouth, this has passed, what kind of small three yuan do you have to get, unless you are at the bottom of the school quarter exam, you will be excised.After Lin Fangxu finished speaking, he walked straight over, and the others followed, the master of ceremonies was already standing there, and the entrance ceremony began immediately, and Shen Jing didn't dare to say anything more.The freshmen completed the washing in turn, and then entered the main hall of the school under the leadership of the instructor, and the former students stood on both sides of the statue of the Holy Master, and the first of them in the first row still stood the master of his previous life, Shen Mao, Shen Darong, of course, he had no scar on his face at this time.There were more than a dozen school instructors standing in the middle, and Lin Fangxu had listened to the lessons of several of them in his previous life.After a while, I heard a voice: The prefect has arrived!
After everyone finally gathered and paid homage to the sage Confucius, the new students bowed to the prefect, professors, and instructors, and then the leaders took turns to speak, just like the modern freshmen entering the school.First of all, the professor said that in addition to being loyal to the monarch and patriotism and studying hard, he mainly talked about some academic examinations and discipline requirements after admission.Then the prefect said that this adult's speech on such an occasion sounded very worthy of his scarlet official uniform, probably asking everyone to study hard, serve the monarch, and serve the country and the people.In the end, Lin Fangxu, the head of the third test, stepped forward to offer incense to Sage Kong on behalf of all the students, and then spoke to make a guarantee, in fact, it was to memorize the words given by Fuxue in advance, which seemed nothing to Lin Fangxu, but Shen Jing in the audience was very jealous.After Lin Fangxu finished reciting, the master of ceremonies said the closing speech, and the ceremony finally ended.Lin Fangxu has lived a two-point and one-line day life since then, of course, it is impossible to live on campus, and there is no student dormitory in the Fuxue Palace.However, there is an alley next to the Fuxue Palace, and there are many courtyards of all sizes for non-local students to rent.Lin Fangxu rented a delicate and elegant courtyard here, there are only two main rooms, which are used as a study and a bedroom, two side rooms, one lives in Lin Fu, a small servant sent by Uncle Cheng Gui, and the other is empty, and the mother-in-law's house, who usually cooks and washes, is in Fucheng and does not live here.When Lin Fangxu entered school for less than a month, Lin Fangqin had already bought the top of the thumb slope mountain, and at this time, he was leading people to plant thorns on the periphery.He has now completely resigned from the errand of the accounting office, and the time to collect summer tea has been missed, and there is still a period of time for summer tea from the beginning of autumn to the summer summer, so he simply returned to Linjia Village and concentrated on taking care of the mountain.Mu Mu and Ermu listened to the lecture at the uncle's place, Lin's father and Lin's mother went to take care of the family's small vegetable garden, Zhao Shiyue and Zhao Niangzi at home watched Xiao Simu turn over, and Sanmu was cheering on the side.Zhao Shiyue looked at the two brothers and said to Zhao Niangzi with a smile: Look at how energetic Simu is, he was thin and small when he was just born, thanks to you.Zhao Niangzi gently took away the little hand that Simu stuffed into her mouth, and said: How can you say that, besides, I am also a belt, and two are also belts.Zhao Shiyue asked again: My brother-in-law wrote a letter saying that he was coming back, and he didn't know when he would get home.Zhao Niangzi said with a sad face: Soon, I went out this time to know that the business was not so easy, and the money was lost.Speaking of which, I would like to thank Brother Yue, fortunately there is your income here, otherwise I am afraid that I will have to cut back on food and clothing when the minister comes back.Zhao Shiyue wanted to ask her, after her brother-in-law came back, would she go back?
But I thought that I would stay in the county seat at the beginning of the year, and I hadn't seen the two brothers and sisters of the child a few times.Hey, forget it, let's talk about it then.Zhao Shiyue sighed in his heart and thought.At this time, Ai Xiaoya didn't know about her brother-in-law's troubles, of course, even if she knew, she was not in the mood to pay attention to it, she was still annoyed.In ancient times, no one was engaged in real estate, and it was so difficult to buy a shop.She ran to Yahang more than a dozen times, and inquired several times in the county seat, only there was an early shop of about four square meters near the city wall to sell, and it was not good if it was less than three hundred taels.In fact, she didn't want to think about it, the shop in ancient times was not like a modern façade, only 40 years of property rights, which could be regarded as ancestral property, father to son, son to grandson, who would sell it.Ai Xiaoya couldn't, so she had to temporarily give up the hot pot restaurant business and guard Lin Fangming to write "The Story of the Stone".Fortunately, Lin Fangming finally conceived it and began to write, but unfortunately the process was not smooth, and he felt that it was wrong after writing a few strokes, so he started again, and wrote it repeatedly for a month, and he is still revising it for the first time.Chapter 21 If you say who is the loneliest during this time, it is none other than Lin Fangqi, he is thinking about why his father didn't give birth to himself a little better, so that he can do well in the college exam, go to school with Brother Xu, and continue to be a pair of inseparable good brothers.Now I can only go to and from school by myself, and I used to be able to go to Brother Xu'er's house often for dinner, and then tease Miki, but now I can't go.Not to mention that the relationship with the second cousin is not very good, the second cousin seems to be very busy, and he didn't know what to write in the study when he went last time.When Lin Fangde took his mother to the county seat for one night in early August, and returned to the village the next day, Lin Fangqi became active and quickly adapted to the county school life.It turned out that it was because his aunt told him that the marriage was negotiated, and he went to make a decision during the Mid-Autumn Festival, and Lin's mother came to the county seat that day to buy the things that were decided.His uncle served as a county magistrate in Qinghe County, Huai'an Prefecture, and his future husband was the eldest brother of the chief bookkeeper of Qinghe County.Lin Fangqi is now full of his calm and reasonable brother, who still thinks of Lin Fangxu, a good brother who was once inseparable.And Lin Fangxu didn't know that his good brother had forgotten about him, and he was drinking tea at the house of his master in his previous life and his senior brother in this life.It is also fate, the small courtyard rented by Shen Mao is not far from the place he rented, and the two have met a few times in and out of school, maybe the top student has a unique temperament, a new leader, an old student leader, and naturally become acquainted.Lin Fangxu looked at Shen Mao's overly upright face, his eyebrows and eyes were somewhat similar to Shen Jing, and the two were actually half-brothers.At that time, in order to climb the Dong family, the eldest son of the Shen family married the granddaughter of the old man of Dong Ge, and the birth of the eldest son Shen Jing was considered to have completed this political marriage.The background of the two brothers is destined to make them unable to get along, one is confident and proud, and the other is not big, and the other is guilty about his brother because of his father's ignorance, and he tolerates everywhere.These are all things that Shen Mao knew after he became his master in the previous life, and at this time, Shen Mao was saying with an upright square face: Brother Lin Xian should not always be so polite in the future, just call me the word Darong in the future, I don't know if Brother Xian has a word?
Lin Fangxu replied: Before participating in the county exam, the master took the table word for me, which is Dongsheng.After Lin Fangxu finished speaking, seeing that his face was distorted, he said quietly: Brother Da Rong can laugh if he wants to.Shen Rong couldn't help but smile and said: The sun is rising, Mr.
Xu thinks that he has high expectations for the virtuous brother of Dongsheng, hahaha Lin Fangxu thought of Mr.
Xu's happy expression after picking up the words for him, and said helplessly: Brother Darong, can you stop talking about it.Modern people are influenced by many TV dramas and novels, and will have an illusion that after the ancients were in Xiucai, those who had money would go on outings every day to participate in poetry meetings, and those who did not have money could also work as a bookkeeper in Tongfu Inn to talk about love.But this is not the case, at least after Lin Fangxu entered the school, he only had three days off every month, in addition to the four books and five classics to continue to study, the four subjects of etiquette, archery, books, and mathematics must also be learned well, and the schoolwork is extremely heavy.Of course, as long as you go to report every month, no one cares about skipping classes, but you must take the first and fifteenth exams of each month, and there are big exams every quarter.At the end of September, when Lin Fangxu participated in the first quarterly examination of the school in this life and won the first place in the school, Mrs.
Lin Fangqin's fried autumn tea also entered the final stage.When Lin Fangqin sent the roasted tea to his father-in-law, his father-in-law seemed to be worried about something.Lin Fangqin put the tea leaves, and when he didn't see it, he asked directly: What's wrong with my father-in-law?
The husband and wife of the shopkeeper Zhao were originally worried about his family's affairs, and they had to tell him about it, so as not to let the son-in-law be defenseless at that time.Today, Master Liu suddenly asked me to drink alone, during which he actually asked about Brother Xu'er's marriage, and he wanted to marry his concubine Xu Ge'er.Shopkeeper Zhao said this, slapped the table angrily, and said angrily: The old man can also be regarded as watching Brother Xu grow up, Brother Xu followed you to pay New Year's greetings when he was a child, he has been smart and sensible since he was a child, and now he has won the little three yuan at the age of thirteen, which is worthy of his concubine!
After listening to this, Lin Fangqin's face was already sinking like water, and he asked: Father-in-law should have refused.Shopkeeper Zhao said: Naturally, I directly told him that Brother Xu is still young, and he will not consider family affairs now, and he still doesn't want to say that it's okay to decide on a family first, it's really shameless.This is when Lin Fangqin said: It's good that my father-in-law refuses, but I think he also knew that it was impossible, so he didn't find me directly.Brother Xu is still young, if he starts from his father's side, he can still leave room for the future, but unfortunately, no matter when, I will not agree, I am afraid that it will affect my father at that time.Guan Shi, who was sitting on the side, said with a smile: Brother Qin'er is worrying about it, your father is in charge of his wife's dowry, and it is not his Liu Fat man's property, and he is not qualified to manage your father-in-law's head.Lin Fangqin smiled and didn't speak, and the shopkeeper Zhao continued: Let me tell you now, it's good that you have a bottom in your heart, don't care about me, just like your father said, the Liu family is the wife in charge.It is also a strange thing in Wuyi County, the Liu family is a merchant, operating a tea mountain and a tea house, and the three generations of businessmen cannot take the imperial examination, and the old lady is the fourth generation, and the old lady married him a daughter-in-law for his imperial examination.It's a pity that Master Liu only likes his cousin and doesn't say it, he is still a man who can't do civil and military affairs and can't distinguish right from wrong.Don't say that the imperial examination has a career, I'm afraid that I can't even afford the family business, so Mrs.
Liu simply trained her daughter-in-law to manage the business.is even more when he was not in good health in his later years, because his son brought his elders and relatives to make trouble, he simply put most of the family's property into his daughter-in-law's dowry when he was dying, and left it to his eldest grandson in the future, and he was also a bold and ruthless man.A few years ago, Mrs.
Liu successively handed over the business to her eldest son, and she stared at her younger son studying most of the time.Lin Fangqin's father-in-law was the shopkeeper hired by Mrs.
Liu to manage the tea shop in the early years, and his father-in-law and Mrs.
Liu were good friends, and said at this time: I will go to see Mrs.
Liu tomorrow and tell her about it.Lin Fangqin thanked Yue Mu, and when he returned home, he told his husband about it, and Zhao Shiyue was also very angry after hearing it: he really dared to think about it!
I didn't look at my own goods, but I actually got the idea of Brother Xu.may have been suppressed by Mrs.
Liu, but you still pay attention to it, Brother Xu'er's marriage must at least wait until after he is lifted.After Lin Fangqin finished instructing his husband, he squinted his eyes and said in a deep voice: Before this, I see who dares to ruin my brother's reputation!
