Not only Zhu San, but also Mr. Cen was stunned.

"No, it's so scary?" Cen Guangji also looked sad and said, "Isn't it just an exam? As for that? If you don't pass the exam this year, you can take it again next year..."

Zhu San pursed his lips and said, "The conditions in their family seem to be a little bad. I saw that the toes of his brother's shoes were exposed. The weather is still a little cold now and they are all red from the cold."

"But...but it can't be like that, right?" Cen Guangji didn't know how to describe it.

Mr. Cen sighed in his heart. He had seen such things a lot. From the time he took the imperial examination to when he became a teacher and took his students to the imperial examination, what year would not have something happen?

I just didn't expect that this year it would be so close to them.

"So, Guangji, you have to be more open-minded. If you can pass the exam, we can take the exam. If you can't, it doesn't matter. We still have an academy at home..." After Cen Guangji grew up, Mr. Cen rarely touched his head.

However, under such circumstances today, he couldn't help but reach out and touch his son's head.

Thinking about how Cen Guangji was so young when he was born and how hard it was to raise him to such a big age, if he went crazy because of the imperial examination, I'm afraid he wouldn't be able to bear it, right?

As a parent, Mr. Cen can well imagine how heartbroken the student's parents will be when they find out.

After a few people talked, the matter was forgotten.

After all, this is someone else's story, and it is only a "tragedy" for the person who is experiencing it.

However, Zhu San and the others did not know that this was the beginning of the Wen family's tragedy.

The person responsible for accompanying Wen Hezheng to take the exam was Wen Hezheng's eldest brother. His status in the Wen family was not very high. If he hadn't been the "eldest brother", he wouldn't have been the one to accompany Wen Hezheng to the exam this time.

Before Wen Hezheng came out, the Wen family had great hopes. They worked hard as a family to send such a scholar out, and he was praised by his husband. How could he fail the exam?

Therefore, when Brother Wen returned to the village with the crazy Wen Hezheng, what greeted him was not the concern and greetings from his parents, but accountability.

"Boss Wen, what did you do?! Why did your brother go crazy?!"

"I...I don't know..." Boss Wen looked confused. How could he know why Wen Hezheng was crazy?

He worked early in the morning and in the dark on weekdays, and was so tired that he couldn't even straighten his back. He was not crazy. His brother only read a book, how could he be crazy?

"You don't know? How could you not know?" Mrs. Wen's voice suddenly rose to a pitch that was particularly harsh. She grabbed Mr. Wen's arm and asked, "You went out with He Zheng, how could you not know? Yes.

Didn't you do it? You were jealous that He Zheng could read and was a scholar, so you destroyed him..."

Boss Wen was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he quickly denied: "No, I don't. Mom, even if I am jealous of him, he is still my brother. How could I do something worse than a pig or a dog?"

However, his words fell into the ears of Mrs. Wen, which was a defense: "How dare you say it? You have admitted it - you are so jealous and honest, how could you not do such a thing? Let me tell you, Boss Wen,

If there’s anything wrong with your brother, I’m not done with you—”

Wen's daughter-in-law was also frightened to death. She was afraid that Mrs. Wen would do something to Mr. Wen if she got excited, so she wanted to step forward to dissuade him.

However, as soon as she opened her mouth, the sharp-eyed old lady Wen slapped her in the ear and scolded her for being a loser. Ever since she married her and entered the family, the Wen family has never had a good day. They raise chickens but don't lay eggs, and they farm the land.

No crops can grow in the ground, so the mourning star comes to visit...

Wen's eldest daughter-in-law was already weak, but Mrs. Wen slapped her ears so hard that her head roared, and her eyes suddenly turned black.

But even so, Mrs. Wen didn't let her go. She pushed and pulled her, and even grabbed Wen's daughter-in-law.

Wen's daughter-in-law was so hurt that she hid aside. Unexpectedly, she stepped on a stone and fell down.

In an instant, a stream of blood flowed out from Wen's daughter-in-law's body.

…

As the saying goes, good things never go out, but bad things spread thousands of miles.

Zhusan County had tried it, but the news that they were preparing for the government examination had not spread yet. The Wen family's son went crazy in the exam. The Wen boss forced his eldest daughter-in-law to death, and the eldest son wanted to separate the family. The news spread to all over the country first.

Everything is known.

Originally there were not many scholars around here, and I could only count them with one hand.

But compared to Zhujiacun's luck, Wen's family is not so lucky.

When everyone heard this, they would sigh a few words: "Oh...hey, I just don't have that kind of fate, but I have to fight for that fate. I fight back and forth, and it becomes a worry."

"Look, this is what happens when you have a good life and have to struggle."

"How many people can become Mrs. Zhu's family these days?"

…

Because Zhujiacun opened a book school before, many families who were tempted to send their children to study suddenly calmed down.

Not everyone is as lucky as Aunt Zhu. If you choose a son as a gift, you can give him a scholar, make a fortune, and set up a book school in the village.

Most of them are just ordinary people, and all they can do is eat three meals a day to survive.

If you can't even figure this out and still dream about other things, isn't it just daydreaming?

"Mom, what about our Chun baby studying..."

"Oh... forget it, Zhujia Village is so far away from our village, it's inconvenient for us to send it away, so I won't send it away. Besides, we are all idiots. Even if we send it away, we won't have the money to give it to the imperial examination. Don't go there

It’s been a long time since I sent it back and forth, and it would be miserable to send it to the Wen family like that.”

As the mother-in-law finished speaking, the young daughter-in-law fell silent.

Although she wants her son to be well, how many people can guarantee that if she sends her son to study, he will definitely be able to pass the exam and become famous?

Like the Wen family, they wasted several years in vain, spent so much money, and even lost a good son in it. Not only did they lose their younger son, but they also forced the eldest son's wife to death. In the future, the eldest son will also

Can you be considerate to them and willing to provide for them in their old age?

So, if you don’t have that life, don’t try to earn it, otherwise it will be in vain.

For most people, it is just a matter of sighing, but when a loudmouth hears it, it becomes a "good advice". She can't wait to teach her son and daughter-in-law: "Have you heard this book?"

It’s not that easy to read. If one of them is bad, it will be like that of the Wen family, with both sons folded in it, tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

She wanted to follow Ye Yuran's butt and pick up some good ones, but the question was, if anyone had the ability to provide a room full of scholars, would their family have any?

Look at other people's newly built houses, and they buy maids, land, and village houses. Look at your own house, it's a dilapidated house, and the little land you bought is not enough to fill your teeth. How can you compare it with others?

Big Mouth is getting older, and he doesn’t know how many more years he can work. He just wants to be relaxed and wait for his son and daughter-in-law to take care of him in old age. If he suddenly needs to use the whole family to send his grandson to study, what will he give her then?

Retirement care?
