Chapter 91： be careful
Zhou Shuren called for his two sons and Rong Chuan, who carefully moved the books out and put them away before taking out the pen, ink, paper and inkstone. There is only one set of valuable pen and ink. , a set can also be worth 10 taels of silver. It is too hateful to use it for children. Zhou Shuren also kept it. The three children were bought with silver money. If you can stay at home and go out to study, you can still use the existing cheap ones.
As for the paper, Zhou Shuren's reward is all high-quality rice paper. It is too wasteful to draw red and practice calligraphy. It is a waste of time to use it. Zhou Shuren keeps it for himself. For the money, Zhou Shuren bought a lot of money in one go, and the three children shared a hundred pieces first.
Chang Lian and Chang Zhi happily took it over. They always used the cheapest paper. The paper had many grains and the ink was uneven. The large characters were easy to write, and the small characters were especially easy to blur. He hugged him tightly, "Thank you dad."
Rong Chuan felt ashamed when he got the pen, ink, paper and inkstone, not to mention good paper, he hurriedly put his hands behind him, "Uncle Zhou, I'll practice calligraphy on the paper that the third and fourth brothers have written, good paper. , I wasted too much."
When Zhou Shuren woke up and waited for the noodles, he had already found time to watch the big characters practiced by the three children. The third son had not made much progress in his handwriting, but Rong Chuan had made the greatest progress. They are all practicing hard. Smart people are not scary. What is scary is that smart people are diligent and hardworking.
Zhou Shuren looked at his old son. The most talented old son in the family was very arrogant. He was always praised in the private school. He started to study smoothly. This is not good. I thought he was smart and would suffer a lot in the future.
Zhou Shuren put the paper in Rong Chuan's hand, "Silly words, good handwriting is very important to the imperial examination. Uncle sees that your handwriting has some character. Uncle is very pleased with your hard work. Don't worry about your family when you hold the paper. Uncle will provide you with reading. You can still afford it. You are half here with your uncle, so don’t feel any psychological burden. When your uncle is done with the task at hand, pick a good day to settle the matter between you and Xuehan.”
Rong Chuan's face blushed, he didn't have time to think about paper, his mind was full of the idea of marriage.
Chang Lian and Chang Zhi were unhappy. The third Chang Lian felt that Rong Chuan had robbed him of his resources. Without Rong Chuan, he could share more paper. As for who the younger sister will marry, anyway, sooner or later, she will marry, and who will marry her. Parents worry, he only cares that Rong Chuan has not only become a brother-in-law, but also sent Rong Chuan to a private school according to his father's wishes.
Before the family changed, Chang Lian also calculated how much money the family had, and was always worried about whether it would be enough for him and Chang Zhi to study. After the winter, he saw the changes in the family. Later, Dad not only went to Jiangnan, but also bought After coming back so many things, he realized that his family was not what he saw on the surface. Even if his family was rich, Rong Chuan had allocated some resources to him, and he didn't like Rong Chuan in his heart.
Changzhi was more intuitive, he didn't care about household affairs, and he didn't care about how much money the family had. He was not happy that his sister was cheap so early, and even if he appreciated Rong Chuan, he was not happy.
Zhou Shuren didn't care about the eyebrows and eyes of the three boys, and all the ones who deserved it were sent away with a wave of hands.
Zhulan cleaned up the kitchen, Zhou Shuren had already put away the ink, ink, ink, and ink, and was holding a book on the kang table. Looking at the ink and ink, Zhu Lan slipped on the kang and said, "Do you want to copy the book?"
Zhou Shuren cut out the paper, "Well, this is not a book, it is the test questions and articles of the two county exams in Jiangnan. The books I ordered after sorting, don't read the book, it is not too thick, it took thirty taels to say it, and it was scrapped. I got it with a lot of effort and thought.”
Zhu Lan picked it up and looked at it, "Isn't there anyone here? The examiners are different in different places I like it differently, is it useful to learn from these?"
Zhou Shuren, "Of course it's useful. Jiangnan's questions are among the most difficult, and many of the exam questions remain the same. Thorough research is very helpful for the rural exam. As for the examiner's preference for the article, it depends on one's luck."
Zhulan understood and asked, "How much money did you spend on this trip plus the things you bought?"
Zhou Shuren reported, "A total of nearly two hundred taels were spent. Specialty fans are not expensive in Jiangnan, so they are relatively rare in the north. The expensive ones are books and paper, and the cheapest second-hand books cost twenty taels!"
Zhulan took a deep breath, "It's really expensive, and it was too difficult to read in ancient times. It's not something that ordinary people can afford."
Zhou Shuren smiled, "Either speaking, the imperial examination is difficult, and it is even more difficult for the poor. The family has a large collection of books, and there is no shortage of famous names. As long as some talents are hard enough, they can be admitted to scholars. With a lot of books, being admitted to Juren Fengmaojiao, and being admitted to the jinshi is like a fish leaping from a dragon gate."
Zhulan was a little worried, "Then do you have confidence?"
Zhou Shuren is very confident. "Next year, I will take the examination for Xiucai, and I will take part in the triennial township examination the year after. Don't worry, I have a plan."
Zhulan was relieved to have received Zhou Shuren's verdict. Zhou Shuren never made unfounded assurances, "Are you copying exam questions for the clan?"
She can remember that there are five talented people in the clan, and they are not too young. The youngest is in his twenties. He must try it out in the next year.
Zhou Shuren nodded, "Yes."
Zhulan didn't have any more questions. She took out the fabric and prepared to make clothes. She likes making clothes now.
Zhou Shuren couldn't calm down. He looked up at Zhulan several times, and Zhulan felt it, "Is something wrong?"
