Chapter 410: Taking part in the childbirth examination next year
After watching the ceremony, Ye Yuran was deeply touched.
This is the ancients. Even if it is just a small private school that cannot even be called an academy, its teachers still follow the most traditional "teacher ceremony". This is the influence of the four words "respecting teachers and respecting Tao".
Some things are engraved in the bones of readers,
It may seem a bit rotten at times, but if there are no such rules and regulations, where will the rules and etiquette be reflected?
After the apprenticeship ceremony was over, it was time to clean up the dormitory and chat about home affairs.
Ye Yuran didn't need to do things herself. She made arrangements with Zhu San and Liu, and then took jam, meat sauce and other things to "visit" Aunt Cen.
"From now on, my Seventh Brother and the others will trouble you, Aunt Cen."
"Oh, you are still polite to me? My son is your son's husband, isn't it the right thing to take care of your son?" Aunt Cen declined, "You think your family has money and no place to do it, so just forget about the six rituals.
, why do you take so many extra things?”
"Isn't it strange that there are so many people giving gifts," Ye Yuran said with a smile, "My family's situation is different from other people's. There are many people, and the Dabao and the Second Bao have taken so many advantages. We still have to give what is due. And this jam, meat
The sauces are all made in-house and cost nothing.”
"Your family knows how to make this thing?!" Aunt Cen was still a little surprised.
"It's impossible not to do it. My family has little land and many people. If it weren't for the help of several daughters-in-law to earn some money and supplement a middle school at every turn, how could I have so much money to send the seventh child to school?"
Ye Yuran also sighed and said that this was the rule left by his ancestors. He had to create some kind of "farming and studying family inheritance" and not let his descendants become businessmen, otherwise the Zhu family would not be as poor as they are now.
That is to say, she gritted her teeth and showed up with several daughters-in-law, so that she could earn a living for her family.
"The rules left by our ancestors have their intentions," Aunt Cen also comforted Ye Yuran, "We old ladies don't understand, but with so many generations of descendants, someone will figure it out. Don't fuck with us.
So much care, just raise your children well."
"As you said, let the men worry about the things left by our ancestors. We women should just take care of the children at home."
…
Do you really think that Ye Yuran just casually "chatted" with Aunt Cen?
Of course not. If the family wants money, it must have nothing to do with business.
She sent Zhu Qi to study. She said it was for the next generation. In fact, she wanted Zhu Qi to take the imperial examination. But businessmen were not allowed to take part in the imperial examination. If she didn't clarify this matter, what would happen to her one day?
It would be troublesome for the Cen family to hear about the Zhu family's business from others.
First create a good first impression and "spread the word" so that everyone in Taidang Mountain knows that it is the daughter-in-law of the Zhu family who is doing business, not the son of the Zhu family - one day, the superiors want to take advantage of the Zhu family.
, only then can there be room for reasoning.
"Are you relieved this time?" Ye Yuran said to Mrs. Liu on the way back.
Ms. Liu was a little embarrassed.
"You can't even say thank you?"
"Thank you, mother."
Mrs. Liu said whatever she asked, and Ye Yuran was really helpless. If Mrs. Li were here, she would definitely have a lot of good things to say that would make your heart feel warm, but if it were Mrs. Liu...
If she hadn't known Mrs. Liu well and knew that the other party was just not good at talking, she would have thought that the other party was dissatisfied with her.
Back home, Ye Yuran is about to start busy with spring plowing.
Last year she made a bet with Mr. Zhu that each person would be responsible for half of the land to see who could plant well.
She didn't just say it casually, she meant it.
We started cultivating the land last winter, and in spring Zhu Da and Zhu Wu got busy.
The methods of farming in this era were still relatively crude. Although Ye Yuran got the Quyuan pear out, they only thought it was useful, but they only plowed it twice, and there were no other tricks.
Ye Yuran is different. She comes from the 21st century with advanced technology. She clearly remembers that the fields in her previous life were paddy fields, which were not what they were in this world.
What is meant by intensive farming is that everything that needs to be prepared must be prepared before planting is actually started.
In the past few days when Ye Yuran was busy with Zhu Qi's apprenticeship ceremony, she had already asked Zhu Da and Zhu Wu to turn over the ground first.
The use of Quyuan pear still attracted the attention of many people, who all ran to the Zhu family's field to watch the excitement.
Some of them had seen it last year, and some hadn't. They looked at their new guy and felt itchy in their hearts.
"Zhu Da, are you tired? Can I help you plow twice?"
"I'm not tired. I just got off the ground." Zhu Da refused.
Just kidding, during the plowing last year, the two brothers did not plow a few times before they plowed the land. If it is given to outsiders again this year, how can the two brothers survive the addiction of plowing?
"Oh, why don't you take a rest? I'll help you."
In the end, there were too many people who wanted to take advantage of him, but Zhu Da still couldn't hold on and gave it to others.
While he was squatting next to him to rest, Old Man Zhu came over and said, "If they want to plow it, let them plow it. The land belongs to us anyway, and we can't run away. There's nothing wrong with saving your own energy."
"Dad, I haven't even had the pleasure of plowing myself." Zhu Da was a little frustrated.
"It takes a lifetime to cultivate this land. Are you afraid that there will be no more land to cultivate for a while? Wait until they get over it and you don't even want to plow it anymore."
Zhu Da: "..."
Ye Yuran had no idea that Quyuanli, which had become popular last year, would once again receive enthusiasm from the villagers after a new year, and every one of them wanted to touch it.
I touched this one, wanted to touch that one, touched that one, and wanted to touch that one again, as if it was endless.
When she came to the field and saw the bustling scene, she thought: This must be the delicious steamed buns that someone robbed!
Old Man Zhu is also cunning. According to his progress in previous years, the ground will not turn so early.
But this year, many people wanted to touch the Quyuan plow at his home, so he directly advanced the work and asked them to "try" even the land he was responsible for.
He thought simply. Even if he plows now, it will still be in vain. He will still have to plow it again later. But if someone else has plowed it once, it will definitely be easier for him to plow it again than if he has not plowed it before.
Besides, why wouldn't he want to plow someone else's plow?
"Why are there so many people?"
"Mother!" Zhu Da, Zhu Wu and the others stood up quickly when they saw Ye Yuran appear.
They explained to her that they were not lazy, but everyone was curious about their Quyuan plow, so they let others snatch it.
"How come I see how many new faces there are?" Ye Yuran looked at the people in the field, feeling confused.
"From the village next door." Old Man Zhu stood up and said, "Last year, didn't the news about the Quyuanli plow you made spread out? They came here to watch the fun."
"Why don't they go to the woodcarpenter's place to see it?"
"The carpenter sells it, and they haven't decided whether to sell it yet, so why bother to go? Our house was the only one who plowed the ground early, so they came to our house to take a look. Besides, it's not far away."
Ye Yuran: "..."
Isn't it far? It can take half an hour to walk, but is it still far?
