Chapter 9 I... don’t want to eat
However, you don’t have to spend money to go to the provincial government, and you don’t have to spend money to buy pens and inks for exams? The family can't even get a few coins out now, and the third child didn't get any work yesterday. What can she give to Changfeng?
"When your cousin comes back, let me tell him and take the test next time.
There is really no other way. That's what she said. Autumn comes only once every three years. I will take the exam next time. How old is Changfeng?
Lin Caisang didn't speak anymore, just lowered his head in silence. It would be fine if Lin Changfeng took the exam but failed, but if he didn't take the exam, how big of a gap would be in his heart?
The reason why Lin Changfeng was able to study in the academy was because her father, Lin Baizhong, went to the mountain to collect bird's nests as an offering. Now that his father has been away for four years, everything in the family has been exhausted.
Lin Changfeng couldn't afford it until he passed the scholar examination.
"It's okay, grandma. Didn't the eldest brother learn hunting from Brother Mo Lian? When the weather gets better, the eldest brother will definitely be able to earn money by going up the mountain a few more times." She raised her head and comforted Mrs. Lin Lu.
Money, let her find a way. Lin Changfeng's literary talent is much better than Zhou Liang. Even if she sells iron, she has to support Lin Changfeng.
What's more, as a modern person, is she still afraid that she won't be able to earn money in ancient times? Why bother selling the iron?
"Why."
Hearing what her granddaughter said, Mrs. Lin Lu felt even more uncomfortable.
Her eldest son, Baizhong, had a hard time growing up. The most he suffered was that he wanted Lin Baixiao to learn to read, but he turned out to be a white-eyed wolf, and in the end he even refused to recognize his ancestors.
Later, he supported Lin Changfeng, and finally waited until Changhong was older and could go to college, but he had to join the army, leaving behind his two children.
Now she wants Lin Changhong to risk his life in the mountains to provide for Lin Changfeng. She really...
Just thinking about it makes me feel ashamed of the boss and his two children.
"Sang Sang, you should rest first. Nai has gone to cut pig grass. Your uncle Jin's family is collecting two pennies and a basket. Nai and your third aunt have to go." After saying that, she glanced at Lin Caisang. A few words of advice.
"Your third uncle doesn't know what he's doing. He can't take on any work outside, and he doesn't know how to help at home. At least he can earn some money by cutting some pig grass. Hey, in this family, Sangsang is the only one who is the best. It saves you the trouble.”
With two copper coins in a basket, she and the third family could still earn ten copper coins a day if they were more agile.
But if you add the third child, you can definitely earn more. But early in the morning, no one was seen, and I don’t know what the two of them were doing.
"Grandma..."
After hearing Lin Lu's words, Lin Caisang was speechless.
It seems that she is the most troublesome person in this family. Wasn't she the cause of this incident? Although she didn't want to cause it, the disaster still happened because of her?
And this disaster was like an earthquake. After the central earthquake, the aftershocks continued.
"Okay, okay, let's not talk about grandma anymore. Just rest, rest, the milk is gone."
Seeing that her granddaughter was unhappy, Lin Lu immediately stopped the topic, turned around and prepared to go out.
"Grandma, please take the chicken away, I... don't want to eat it."
Lin Caisang climbed up from the bed and said to Lin Lu. In fact, from an angle that Lin Lu couldn't see, his eyes were shining with gold as he stared at the chicken.
Why doesn’t she want to eat? Of course she wants to eat!
"Don't want to eat? Sangsang, are you feeling unwell? Wasn't this chicken your favorite before?" Lin Lu turned around in confusion, looked at her with concern, and asked.
