Chapter 821 Can I Hold Your Thigh? 3
If the harvest in the field is not good, the whole family is struggling.
At first, Mrs. Song became anxious, criticizing Sang Huai every day, calling Fan Xing a lazy person, not active in work, only eating dry food.
After a while, after hearing the instigation of other women in the village, I began to have other thoughts——
"Shi Ran's mother, according to what you said, your child bride-in-law doesn't do anything, and her hands and feet are not good, so why keep her?"
Song took it for granted: "Of course we have to save it for our family Shi Ran to be his daughter-in-law!"
After raising her for so many years, there must be something in return.
The woman immediately looked at her with hateful eyes.
Seeing that Song's heart was flustered, he asked, "What's the matter? Is there any problem?"
"Of course there is a problem, it's a big problem!" The woman spoke excitedly, with an exaggerated expression.
"Your family, Shi Ran, is recognized as the most educated child in ten miles and eight towns, and he will win the champion in the future. The champion will marry a daughter of a high official in the capital, so you plan to let Shi Ran marry a child bride?"
Song Shi heard it.
Immediately, there was a feeling of sudden enlightenment and enlightenment.
She said why she always looked at that cheap girl as a dislike, after thinking about it, she finally figured it out...
It's because that lowly girl is not good enough for her family Ran'er.So, when she thought that the other party would be her daughter-in-law in the future, she felt bad, so she couldn't help but be harsh on her.
But thinking of spending so much effort on that cheap girl over the years, Song Shi felt a little hesitant...
"It cost me a lot of money to raise her up like this."
You can't treat her like your own daughter in the end, and marry her off in a graceful manner, can you?
What's more, Ran'er has known since she was a child that that cheap girl was raised as his wife, and she sees people no differently from her own eyeballs.
If you continue to keep that cheap girl at home, Ran'er's feelings for her will only grow deeper and deeper.
When the time comes, just find someone to marry her off, and my son won't be able to turn against her!
She just hoped that her son would be promising in the future, and that she could be an old lord, but she couldn't let her son divorce her.
"It's easy to handle!" the woman said, "Isn't the harvest this year not good? In other villages with daughters, they have found other ways..."
Speaking of this, the woman lowered her voice, with a mysterious look, "There is a family in the village next door. Didn't they give birth to seven losers in a row before? Just because of this connection, they paid a lot of money." Not only did the young ones not lose money, but they even got rich.”
Song Shi suddenly became interested: "What kind of connection?"
"You don't know this. Rich families like to buy a lot of good-looking maids for appearance. If you sign a death contract, one will sell for more than ten taels of silver!"
That's more than ten taels of silver!
I can't save so much in a lifetime of farming.
"If you work as a maid in a rich family, you can still get monthly money. If you are appreciated by the master, you will live like a rich lady. Do you think you are working as a cow or a horse for others? In fact, it is to enjoy the blessings. "
Mrs. Song chewed the root of her tongue with the woman for a long time.
When I went back, I thought about it...
This year's harvest is not good, and Ran'er spends a lot on studying.
In addition, that cheap girl didn't know what was going on, so she worked harder and harder.
It's really useless to keep her.
If it can be sold for more than a dozen taels of silver, it is not a loss to raise her for so many years.
It's just that she has to find a better outlet and try to sell him at a good price.
Then find a way to persuade Ran'er to sell that lowly girl.
Otherwise, she was really afraid that her son would make trouble with her...
*
half a month later.
Shi Ran, who is studying at the county academy, received a letter from his family saying that his mother was seriously ill, and asked him to go back quickly.
Shi Ran immediately hired a bullock cart and drove home.
When I got home, I found his mother lying weakly on the bed. When I saw him back, I burst into tears...
"Son, I'm afraid I'm going to die as a mother. My mother can't see you take the No. [-] examination and become a high official!" Song Shi is still very good at acting.
Shi Ran suddenly anxiously asked his father, Shi Dayong, "Mom, what's wrong?"
Shi Dayong sighed, "It's not because the harvest is not good. This year's drought, the harvest is not good, and your mother is short-tempered. Thinking that there is not enough chewing at home, she made herself ill."
I really don't know what's the rush.
As the pillar of the family, Shi Dayong is an exceptionally down-to-earth, honest man.
Others praised his son as the most promising scholar in the ten miles and eight towns, so he thinks it...
Actually that's it.
So what's wrong with the most promising people in the ten miles and eight towns?
In other places, there will be one of the most promising towns in the ten miles and eight villages?
Calculated in this way, there are many outstanding scholars in each state capital.
There are so many scholars in the world, and his son is only one of them, and only one champion comes out every three years, so why should it be his son's turn?
Isn't it good to be down-to-earth?
Whichever step you take the exam counts as which step.
This year's harvest is not good, and there is no money to take the exam in the spring of next year, then the next year will take the exam.It has been offered for so many years, and it is not bad for another year.
"Ran'er, Mother's greatest wish in this life is to see with her own eyes that you are promising. Whenever Mother thinks that the family has no money, which will delay your examination for fame, Mother... feels terrible in her heart."
Song wailed for a long time.
Finally, under the comfort of Shi Ran, he calmed down and said that he wanted to use Fan Xing and a rich family as a maid.
When Shi Ran heard this proposal, he immediately refused, "No, I don't agree!"
"You want to kill my mother! It's not that my mother wants to sell her to a kiln, but to a rich family as a maid. She has to work in our house, and she is sent to a rich family. The work is easy. some."
Song wailed again.
Howling at the top of his throat, the howling made Shi Ran's temple throb and hurt.
"And mother can't help it? After all, our family has raised her for so many years. If there is a little way, mother will sell her to be a maid?"
"Mother, I..."
"Besides, when you take the No. [-] Scholar exam and become a high official, you can still redeem her!"
What Song said was reasonable and well-founded, Shi Ran couldn't even talk back at all.
In the end, he could only let go.
However, he also has his own considerations...
What kind of temperament his mother is, he can't understand it all too well.
Once you want to do something and say it, you will achieve your goal by any means.
Even if he is rejected today, it is very likely that he will sell Fanxing directly when he is not at home in the future.
Rather than knowing nothing at that time, he might as well choose a good place for Fanxing himself.
There are some big families in the county town, which are famous for their good deeds.
Being a maid in that kind of rich family may be more comfortable than living under his mother's hands.
Thinking so, Shi Ran nodded in agreement.
