Chapter 72

Wang's heart sank. People in the village are like this. When you are poor, they look down on you and bully you. When you live better than them, they are jealous of you.

Some people will hoe the ridges on their own side little by little every time they dig the ground, and then dig some new mud to pile up other people's fields, so as to occupy other people's fields or vegetable gardens little by little. .

Some public resources, such as the water in the river to irrigate the rice fields, the wild fruits and vegetables on the mountain, the prey, the fish in the river, etc., as long as there is no owner, they all want to take it for themselves.

Every year, people quarrel and fight over these things.

Mrs. Wang is worried, what if the two scorpion's daughter-in-law say so and the whole village asks them to pay for the snails?

After hearing this, Wen Xin couldn't help but pee in a low voice: "It's so shameless!"

Wen Ran couldn't help muttering: "Why didn't they bring us home when they made money!"

Wen Nuan was laughed at by these people's shamelessness, she smiled and said: "My grandma already said the simplest and cheapest recipe. But since everyone doesn't believe it, do you want the recipe we sold to the restaurant? Tell everyone Yes! But there is one condition."

Er Manzi's daughter-in-law immediately said: "Of course I want it, what are the conditions?"

Nuan Nuan smiled: "Because this recipe has already been sold, if you tell others, you have to compensate the owner of Ruyi Restaurant 200 taels of silver. Since my aunt wants everyone to earn money together, whoever wants the recipe for fried snails?" Just make a count of every family and every household collects some money, and when you have collected 200 taels, we will tell the recipe, and from now on, we will all work together to sell snails to build new houses, wear new clothes, make a fortune, and strive for a well-off life!"

At the end of Wen Nuan's speech, she was deliberately very excited, as if we were going to make a fortune together.

But it was like a basin of cold water was poured on everyone in an instant.

Collect 200 taels of silver to accompany you?Wenjia Village is not considered a large village, it only has about [-] households, which means that each household has to pay about ten taels of silver!

how can that be!

And everyone is going to sell fried snails, is there any money to be made?I'm afraid I won't be able to earn back the ten taels of silver if I sell it for a lifetime, forget it, don't want it!

After hearing this, several people left quickly, and they were still rushing home to cook!

The daughter-in-law of Er Manzi: "What? 200 taels of silver? Why don't you go grab it! It's just a daydream, why do you want us to chip in the silver for compensation!"

Yongfu's daughter-in-law nodded: "Why should we come out!"

Nuan Nuan's face turned cold: "Then why should I tell you my family's recipes for free? Do we pay for the 200 taels ourselves? Sorry, my family doesn't owe you anything!"

"Then you have to pay the villagers some money after touching the snails in the river!"

Nuan Nuan sneered: "The snails in the river belong to you? If you let them call you Grandma, I will pay you back! Grandma, let's go!"

Wang was so angry that her temples hurt, and she couldn't help but said: "The snails in the river don't belong to anyone, whoever touches them belongs to them. We didn't stop you from going down the river to touch them! A lot of snails have climbed up, now go and get all the snails in the river home! Take all the water in the river home by the way! See if we have any opinions!"

The family ignored the second daughter-in-law and Yongfu's daughter-in-law and left quickly.

They didn't get any benefits, and the two of them were itching their teeth with anger.

Yongfu's daughter-in-law snorted: "Wait, her family's plague god is sick every three days, and she may fall ill one day, and spend all her money. Borrow everywhere, don't even think about borrowing from my family, I will not borrow a penny! "

After she finished speaking, she twisted her buttocks, pushed open the dilapidated wooden door, and entered the house.

Er Manzi's daughter-in-law also yelled: "I don't want to borrow it either! Once you have a few filthy money, you will pretend to be! Maybe one day you will lose it all!"

She walked back to the most dilapidated adobe house in the village, pushed open the dilapidated wooden door with a creak, and entered the house.

Wennuan returned home and the family ate something casually, Wennuan took out the contents of several large clay pots at home, emptied a few large pottery pots, cleaned them, and made vinegar from the dried persimmons first.

Wen Nuan originally planned to go to my grandfather's house to buy them yesterday, but there was no time, and the persimmons should not be stored for too long after being cleaned and dried.

So the family was busy cleaning the pot, disinfecting it with boiling water, then wiping the water with a clean cotton towel sterilized with boiling water, drying it, and then removing the stems of the persimmons and putting them into the pot layer by layer. Inside, coded, sealed, and naturally fermented for several months before further processing.

Wen Nuan, they are very busy here.

Wen Jiarui in Fucheng took the three brothers Chungeer to Lushan Academy, and successfully met with Lin Honghao with a letter of recommendation.

Lin Honghao chose to test them because of King Jin's face. He hadn't planned to accept apprentices, but after passing the test and seeing the results of a few children, he changed his mind.

Because it is indeed a talent that can be cultivated, this is still only half a year of school, there is a student who has not really attended school to have this level of knowledge, even better than students who have studied in school for several years, which proves that they really want to learn. Study hard on weekdays.

Lin Honghao didn't know that Wen Jiarui would burn a pile of firewood every night and teach a few children to read by the light of the fire. For so many years, even in the dog days, it was uncomfortably hot.

Moreover, he took his two brothers to work on weekdays. He would test their knowledge when he was free, and seized all the time to let them learn. Naturally, the knowledge was not too bad.

Lin Honghao looked at the three papers and was very satisfied. He looked at the three brothers and asked: "I am very strict. Whether it is the cold winter or the scorching heat, as my disciple, I have to get up at the beginning of the day to read books every day. You can’t fall asleep until the book is over at night, and you can’t delay for a day! Are you really willing to worship me as a teacher?”

"Strict teachers produce high-quality apprentices, and I am willing to be gentle students."

The three brothers expressed their willingness one after another.

Lin Honghao nodded. After the three of them had done their apprenticeship ceremony, he gave the three brothers more than a dozen books and assigned a bunch of homework, asking them to memorize those books when they report to the college after the Lantern Festival next year, and assign him I finished my homework and handed it to him.

After the three brothers agreed, they happily left Lushan Academy with their books.

At this time, the other students had finished their exams, and many students in the academy left.

As soon as Wen Liang came out, Wen Jiafu walked over to him: "Brother Liang, how did you do in the exam?"

Wen Liang smiled: "That's right. I'm sure I'll pass it." There happened to be a big question that Wenshu saw the day before yesterday, so he asked Mr. Guo for advice.

Wen Jiafu was relieved after hearing this, and said excitedly: "Okay, okay"

The coachman of the Song family next to him heard his attitude becoming more and more respectful: "Master, son, let's go back to the mansion and talk about it. Madam is still waiting for good news from the son!"

The two laughed and got into the carriage. Wen Jiafu was about to climb into the carriage when he saw a familiar figure out of the corner of his eye. He turned his head and saw four people in brand new brocade robes were about to climb into a carriage.

Wen Liang had already gotten into the carriage, saw that his father was looking at something, and poked his head out: "Father, who are you looking at?"

"I seem to have seen your fourth uncle and brother Chun."

Wen Liang sneered after hearing this: "You read it wrong! The people here are either rich or noble, how can they be qualified to come here."

Wen Jiafu: "That's right, how could your fourth uncle and Brother Chun come here, they haven't read the book for a few days, dare to come to Lushan Academy?"

Must be blindfolded.

Wen Liang drooped his eyes, covering the disdain in his eyes: he didn't even have the qualifications to come!I can't find anyone to write a recommendation letter, how come!

The carriage drove away.
