    ?

    Yunlin¡¯s business was not very good that day. Although they had accumulated some good reputation over the years and had some regular customers, when they closed the stall in the afternoon, they only sold about half of the things they brought to town.

    After meeting other villagers, Yunlin was very quiet on the way back to Xiaoxi Village.

    He was a little upset and at a loss. For a while, he thought about his status. How dare he think of letting his grandson "study"?  After a while, I thought, even if I can't read, I just can read, I think I can do it by gritting my teeth, right?  Then I thought, can my grandson really take that Mr. Li as his teacher?  If it can be done, wouldn't it mean that the Lao Yun family, whose ancestors have been farmers for generations, will have a scholar?

    There is a saying called the method of provoking generals. Yunlin's current state is that he was prodded by Zhang Changgui's words. After a few words, Yunlin agreed in a daze.

    At this moment, he still had an unreal feeling like a dream.

    Well, to put it bluntly, it¡¯s just a bit over the top.

    What Zhang Changgui told him is really a bit inspiring. After all, as a civilian, there is a chance to make a comeback. I guess everyone wants to try it. It doesn¡¯t cost money anyway.

    With this mentality, Yunlin vaguely discussed it with Zhang Changgui.

    Now that he has calmed down, Yunlin can forget about the worry about gain and loss. Even though he hopes to have a scholar in his family, he instinctively feels that this is not something that people like him dare to think about.

    The mood is extremely complicated and contradictory.

    So much so that he didn¡¯t dare to say anything along the way, let alone tell the villagers about this matter. If it happened, it would be a good thing, but if it didn¡¯t, it might be a big joke

    Seeing his old father like this, Yunshan wanted to ask but didn't know how to ask, and looked worried.

    We just returned to Xiaoxi Village. When we got home, it was already evening.

    Yunshan couldn't help it anymore and asked: "Dad, what's wrong with you? How are you doing with brother Changgui?"

    ¡°This is about it, I¡¯m a little impulsive,¡± Yunshan said with a wry smile as he took a puff of dry smoke.

    Slightly stunned, Yunshan was confused and asked: "Dad, why are you so impulsive? Is it possible that you spent money to inquire about something?"

    "It's like this. I just wanted to ask Zhang Changgui about studying today, but then I was confused and moved by what he said. I agreed to take Xiaojing to the town in five days to meet him and go to Li  Mr. Li¡¯s apprenticeship, oh no, the prerequisite is to pass Mr. Li¡¯s examination,¡± Yunlin scratched his head in embarrassment.

    Yunlin doesn't have as good a memory as Yunjing. After so many years, Li Qiu, who once had a chance to buy him maltose, has long forgotten it. He may remember selling maltose, but he has almost forgotten the specific process.  .

    Yunshan was filled with mist and asked in confusion: "What are you talking about?"

    It was getting dark now. At the entrance of the yard, Yun Jing rode Da Hei back. He didn¡¯t know what Yun Lin did when he went to town, so he said normally: "Grandpa, Dad, you guys have gone to town and come back."

    Being interrupted by him, Yunlin didn't bother to explain to Yunshan. He nodded at Yun Dingding and said, "Xiaojing, please lock up the cow, and then come over and let me tell you something."

    "What's the matter?" Yunjing was puzzled, but he still followed his words and ignored Dahei and walked over.

    Jiang Susu also came out of the house at this moment, holding the ignorant Yundong in her arms. She knew the main reason why her husband and father-in-law went to town today. She said nothing at this time, nervously and anxiously waiting to hear the result.

    Is there really a chance to study in my own small scene?

    She didn¡¯t dare to think about it, nor did she dare to ask.

    When the family gathered together, Yunlin took some time and recounted the conversation he had with Zhang Changgui in the town intermittently.

    After listening, the family members had mixed reactions.

    Yunshan was confused and frightened. What, it costs so much money to study?  God, if we don't have food or drink for ten lifetimes, we can't afford it!

    ??????????? Then there is Jiang Susu, she is both happy and worried at the same time. Although studying is difficult, there is a shortcut. If her son can worship Mr. Li as his teacher, studying will not be a problem.

    But, can it be done?

    ?????????????????????? Even if it fails, there is still a chance to learn how to read, but simple literacy is not as good as reading.

    My son has been smart and sensible since he was a child. I think he should be able to do it. Yes, he will definitely be able to do it. My son is the smartest in the world!

    As for Xiao Yundong

    He shouted inarticulately: "Read, readIf the teacher is unsuccessful, it¡¯s just that the restrictions are too big and it¡¯s just a little troublesome. No matter how big the difficulty is, it¡¯s not impossible to solve it, isn¡¯t it

    Zhang Changgui in town has not been idle these days. The day after he separated from Yun Lin, he specifically inquired about Li Qiu's residence, and then plucked up the courage to visit.

    After all, he was from a scholarly family. Even the servants who received Zhang Changgui did not directly drive him away with a condescending attitude. Instead, they asked him in detail the purpose of his visit.

    When the servant who received him learned from him that he wanted to recommend a child to accept Mr. Li's examination and apprenticeship, the servant was stunned for a while when he understood his intention.

    He said to himself, do you think those who failed to become apprentices just failed the school entrance examination?  That's because my master doesn't want to accept apprentices at all!

    ¡°I don¡¯t want to tell you where you came from, but you actually recommended a child to become a teacher. How much confidence do you have in him?  How good does it have to be?

    Although this was just a joke to the servant, he still clearly replied to Zhang Changgui that he understood and would report the matter to his master, and then give him a reply based on his answer.

    Zhang Changgui was afraid that the servants of the Li family would deliberately make things difficult and not report the matter, so he gritted his teeth and stuffed the other party with two coins, which made the servants dumbfounded.

    Although this was a side project, it was also a benefit for the servants of a wealthy family. The servant took the money and the matter was settled. That night, he reported Zhang Changgui¡¯s intention to Li Qiu.

    After the report, the servant said dumbly: "Master, you said this is a serious matter. You are really ignorant and fearless. Over the years, anyone with a discerning eye has known that you do not want to accept a disciple, so no one has come to mention this matter in the past two years.  Now, another one has appeared. It¡¯s really dumbfounding. I don¡¯t know where I found out that you have a good temper before you dare to come and mention this matter. How should I reply to him then? "

    "Anyway, I've been quite free recently. Since someone came to our door and mentioned this matter, let's give him a chance to meet him. You should know how much courage it takes for someone to dare to come and bring up this matter. Why should we try to get things done? This can be regarded as giving him something to think about.  It's just a waste of time, even if it's just a formality," Li Qiu said with a gentle smile.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? did not look old, almost unchanged from the beginning, and he is still so gentle in dealing with people.

    After receiving his answer, the servant nodded and said, "I know how to reply, sir. Zhang Changgui said he would bring someone here in four days. Do you think so?"

    "Let's just say it's noon that day. It's not easy for people to come here. Prepare some food then. Although I don't want to accept a disciple, I'm a guest, so I still have to have the proper etiquette." Li Qiu thought for a while and said.

    "Okay, sir, please rest, I'm leaving"

    After the servant left, Li Qiu didn't take this matter to heart. As he said, it was just a formality. He really didn't want to accept a disciple. If he was a little cruel, he wouldn't even see anyone.  What can I say, but as a courtesy of a scholar, he doesn't want to do anything absolutely, and it is the way to be a human being to leave everything on the line.

    The next day Zhang Changgui came to the Li family again and learned through the servant that Li Qiu had promised to give him a chance. He left with excitement and waited until Yun Lin arrived with Yun Jing.

    The sun has risen and the moon has set several times, and that day has arrived unknowingly (Remember the website address of this website: www.hlnovel.com
