Chapter 2197 Where does the water come from?(2/2)
Qiu Cheng laughed and said, "Everyone, what's wrong? So-and-so is still so-and-so...but he has changed his position, so you don't recognize him anymore?"
"That's different..." someone responded.
Qiu Cheng laughed and said, "What's different? If it weren't for the village elders who took our family in, the entire Qiu family would have died in the rebellion... I'm still me, growing up in Chenjiazhai."
The big Qiu family!』
"Okay! Well said!" A slightly older voice came from behind the villagers in Chen's village, "I just said that the Qiu family can produce talents! Look, isn't it true now?!"
"Mr. Chen..." Everyone saluted and made way for them.
Mr. Chen, an elder-level figure in the Chen family village, stepped forward, looked Qiu Cheng up and down, then nodded, turned around and laughed and said to the villagers: "Okay, it's all gone, it's gone, don't take it seriously."
As Qiu Jialang said, I will be a host tomorrow, tomorrow, to celebrate Qiu Jialang's appointment as county magistrate! Let's leave today, let's go home and have a good rest..."
Qiu Chenggong cupped his hands, "How can I trouble Mr. Chen..."
Mr. Chen smiled and said, "How can I say I'm bothered if I'm not bothered? Qiu Jialang, don't go out. It's getting late today, and it's not convenient for me to nag. If you have anything to do, let's talk about it tomorrow... We'll talk about it tomorrow..."
Qiu Cheng could only shake his head, and when he looked in the direction of his home, he couldn't help but smile. He turned around and greeted his brother, "Let's go home!"
Although it is said that returning home is as fast as an arrow, on the way home, it is still inevitable to say hello to this and that other villager in the village...
"Brother Zhong, why bother paying attention to them?" Qiu Neng on the side hummed, "When you went to become an agricultural bachelor before, these people ignored them and ignored them. Some people even made fun of them, saying, "What are we talking about?"
The more I go back, the more I go back, and then I don’t even have a serious position... Now I’m pretending to be friendly... Humph..."
Qiu Cheng smiled slightly, nodded towards the person who greeted him, and pulled Qiu Neng, "Shut up and walk faster..."
The Qiu family is a declining noble family, not even a poor family. At least the poor family still has a family, but they don’t even have a home, they can only live here as guests. They really don’t know how to survive the first few years, and the peasants
Bachelor's degree was the only way Qiu Cheng thought of at that time.
Otherwise, it can be said that the Qiu family really had no way to climb up at that time.
A serious school must be rich. If you don’t have money, you can’t even go to school. Only agricultural and engineering bachelors can get credit first and then pay it back slowly...
Therefore, even during the period when Qiu Cheng served as an agricultural bachelor, his family circumstances did not change much. Most of his salary had to be paid off, so although there were some subsidies, he was still very poor.
Although the Bachelor of Agriculture and the Bachelor of Engineering both carry the word "scholar", in fact, in the eyes of most gentry children, especially those serious gentry children, it is not a good way to get ahead, even because agriculture
Most of the time, bachelor's degree and engineering degree were mixed with civilian husbands and craftsmen, which made the gentry's children dislike them very much.
Stinky, smelly sweat.
Dirty, muddy.
Tired, hard work.
The children of the gentry should live in romance, drink with beautiful women, burn incense and read scriptures, and enjoy all the luxury. What's the point of hanging out in the fields, workshops and ditches? Doesn't it mean that they have lost their identity?
Of course, the children of the gentry have also forgotten that their ancestors, even the royal nobles, were just village pavilion chiefs or small landowners in the fields...
Those who looked down on or even laughed at the Qiu family back then included not only the gentry children, but also the ordinary farmers in the Chen family village. It was like seeing a well-dressed man step on a banana peel and fall, and some people would laugh immediately. These people
There are also some farmers who feel that the Qiu family's fall from class is something worthy of their ridicule.
But now, no matter men, women, old or young, whenever they meet on the road, they are always friendly. If Mr. Chen hadn't told him not to disturb him before, he might have stopped Qiu Cheng now and invited him to his home warmly.
Sit down...
Qiu Chengye responded in a kind manner. Villagers and farmers in the countryside, even if they are cunning, are limited, and because of their own field of vision, the smaller the place, the easier it is for them to have small intestines, because they can only see
Such a small place.
The Qiu family is a guest, so the home itself is relatively remote. Qiu Cheng walked through the doors of thirty or forty houses and said hello to thirty or forty houses, and then dealt with thirty or forty invitations before finally arriving.
In front of your own house.
There are a dozen mulberry trees in front of and behind the house, and these dozen mulberry trees are the only source of extra income for their family. But now in the cold winter, the leaves of these mulberry trees have almost fallen off, leaving only
Bare branches.
Because he was a guest, he had no land. No land meant no income. Only these mulberry trees supported the entire family and were his mother's heart and soul. Whenever the mulberry leaves began to grow in the spring, his mother began to raise them.
Silkworms, every time when silkworms grow like crazy, they have to get up two or three times a night to add mulberry leaves to them. He and his brother often fall asleep to the sound of silkworms rustling as they eat mulberry leaves...
Then we have to boil silkworm cocoons and draw silk...
Every item is not easy.
If silkworm cocoons are overcooked, they will become old.
If the silk is pulled too fast, it will break.
It's not that the people in Chen's village didn't want to learn, but they couldn't learn it. Even if Mother Qiu taught her step by step, they still couldn't learn it. Then they blamed it on their own clumsiness and their inability to learn...
What these people don't know is that the people in Chen's village learn to raise silkworms just because they want to make more money. More is better, but it doesn't matter if they can't learn it. They still have land anyway, but Qiu's mother raises silkworms.
If you make a mistake while fighting for your life, your whole family will have no income and no living expenses!
How could it be the same?
Under the bare mulberry tree, standing tremblingly, is the old mother with gray hair...
