Chen Yuan was shocked. Could it be that they wanted to use her to earn monthly salary to support the Li family?

The next second, she denied it again.

The Li family would not give her a chance to contact the officials.

Sure enough, Li Rengui said, "No, I'm talking about Delong."

The elder man of the Li family was shocked when his name was called, "Dad, what are you talking about? I also want to take part in the scientific examination and honor the lintel of the Li family."

"Delong, it's not that dad is biased. Your medical studies are much slower than your brother's. Ask yourself, can you endure it and endorse it? Can you endure reading for another ten years, step by step, test talents, promote people, and become Jinshi?" Li Rengui, after all,

Having been a medical doctor, I know how to weigh the pros and cons and make the best choice.

"With our family's current conditions, we don't even have money to buy books. In three years' time, you and your brother will have no chance of being admitted as scholars. Then one of you will have to serve as a corvee. Do you think it's harder to be a widower or to do a corvee?

"

Li Rengui said it sincerely, but Li Delong was not convinced, "Why should I go to do corvee and not my brother?"

He said so much, why did Delong listen to the last sentence? Li Rengui was so angry that he fell back.

"Of course your brother can also go to do the corvee. When the time comes, let him go and you stay at home." Before Li Rengui finished speaking, Li Delong became happy. He didn't want to do the corvee.

But I heard Li Rengui continue, "When I get too old and can't move, you will have to clear up wasteland and cultivate this land by yourself. You are the boss, and you have to take on the heavy responsibility of raising me and your mother. Oh, and also

There is your wife, your second brother’s wife, and the children.”

Li Delong's face fell instantly, "Isn't it because I don't want to be a widower? As for dad, I don't want that bastard to come and help me with my work."

Hu Tingfang slapped Li Delong on the head, "My silly son, you don't want to marry anymore? If you don't sell her, where will you get the money to get a wife? If you don't want a wife, we will keep her to help you."

Farm."

"I...!" Li Delong felt aggrieved. Of course he wanted a wife.

If he hadn't been exiled, he and his fiancée would have had their wedding last year!

The mother-in-law didn't know that her son wanted women when he grew up. Hu Tingfang said scornfully, "If you become a widower and earn 500 yuan a month, are you afraid that you won't be able to marry a wife?"

Li Delong was said to be elated, and Li Rengui took advantage of the victory to pursue him, "As you become a coward, you will inevitably meet a squire who needs your help. If you help, you will not only benefit yourself, but you will also be able to find a guarantor for your brother. If you don't have one,

Guarantor, even if our family has books to read and you and your brother memorize the books by heart, you won’t be able to take the imperial examination?"

"But, I became a widower and my brother is my family, so he still can't take part in the imperial examination."

Hu Tingfang wiped away tears at the side, "Brothers work together to cut through gold. When the time comes, I will wrong you and remove you from my Li family tree, but Delong, don't worry, we will always be a family.

It doesn't matter whether we are in the same family tree or not. Our hearts are together and we are one family. We don't distinguish between each other. Just treat it as if you just separated and lived alone."

At this time, Dewei also sincerely took Delong's hand, "Brother, you helped me, I will remember your efforts. When I pass the imperial examination and become an official in the future, I will definitely take you by my side.

Regardless of whether you want to start a business or manage Zhuangzi, I will leave it to my eldest brother to manage and protect you. Your descendants will not have any identity concerns at all. I am an official of one parent. How can I not even settle the household registration?

?”

This assurance gave Delong a reassurance.

"Okay, I agree, I will be a widower." Li Delong nodded, and everyone in the Li family showed joy.

The Li family is a loving father and a filial son, promising each other a future, which looks so touching.

Only Chen Yuan, an outsider, did not need to discuss it with me. The Li family unanimously agreed that it could be sold to the Li family to improve their lives.

Chen Yuan is not sad either. She has never had unrealistic illusions about this family. Now she is only focused on this job opportunity.

It's a pity that these people would give up for five buckets of rice instead of insisting on their noble background and not bothering to become widowers.

However, job opportunities are never given by others, they are earned by oneself.

At this moment, Chen Yuan also thought of a way to get the government officials to recognize him.

At this time, Yu Quan also gained a lot outside. Although he was helpless, everyone was too enthusiastic, so he finally accepted five people who wanted to be apprentices.

He just walked back into the yard.

Yamen servant Ma Li also followed, pointed to the five people following Yu Shenquan, and urged the Li and Liu families, "Our county government doesn't have to rely on you. It's just that squad leader Yu thought you had learned medical skills and promoted you.

I didn’t expect you to look down on me. You look down on me, but there are many people who do.”

At this time, the Li and Liu families also saw the five people. Forced by these words, they became anxious and no longer as relaxed as before.

Li Rengui said with a shy smile, "Thank you all for your kindness. I just didn't appreciate it. I apologize to you."

He bowed down and bowed politely, "Our boss, Li Delong, is willing to be a widower. He has studied medicine and knows all the meridians of the human body. He has also had acupuncture before..."

At this moment, Liu Yong also rushed to say, "Master, my Liu Yanchun is also willing to work as an apprentice in the county government."

Li Rengui didn't mind it at all if other people wanted to be apprentices in medicine. He also knew that people who had studied medicine could learn to be apprentices much faster than ordinary people.

But Liu Yanchun made him feel the pressure. Generally speaking, a small county government only supports one widower. This Liu Yanchun is much smarter than Delong. If he chooses him, what will happen to his Delong? The future of their Li family

what to do?

But he was reluctant to let the smarter Dewei become a widower.

"Master official, Liu Yanchun is a dandy who can't stand hardship. When he works as a coward, he has to go to the scene of a crime to conduct an autopsy. How can he endure such hardship? After being exiled here, Liu Yanchun didn't even have a hoe or sickle.

Touched." To suppress competitors, how could they, who have been in the palace, not understand?

When his son was gossiped about, Liu Yong refused to listen, "I'm not bragging. Of the two sons of the Li family, Li Dalang is not as smart as my Chunlang, and Li Erlang is not as courageous as my Chunlang. As for the hoe and sickle, can he disembowel a corpse or not?"

Write down the detailed cause of death?”

When Li Rengui was stepped on by Liu Yongla, he was so angry that he blew his beard and said, "Liu Yong, don't be wishful thinking here. My Delong volunteered to be an apprentice. He is not as thoughtful as Liu Yanchun, but he is steady and does not make mistakes. He is not willful.

.I would like to ask your dear Chun'er, are you really willing to endure this hardship and face the corpse day and night?"

Liu Yanchun, who had gone to the field to inform the Li family of bad news, looked over and stretched out his hands, which were whiter and tenderer than a woman's. "How can I do farm work with these hands? I really can't bear the hardships of the fields and I can't do the corvee."

But it's different when you're a coward. There aren't corpses to be examined every day. Maybe there won't be a dead person for ten days and a half. How happy it is to get monthly money for nothing. I can also invite all the government officials out for a drink when I have time.

,The taste is so beautiful.”

As soon as he said these words, the government officials looked at him with a different look. This guy is quite good!

"Uncle Li, do you think I am voluntary?" Liu Yanchun met Li Rengui's old face with a playful smile.

A playboy like him has no interest in the grudges of the older generation.

But colleagues are enemies.

In the past, my father and Li Rengui were fighting in the imperial medical office, but now they are both exiled, and they are now their children, competing for a job as a widower.

People who don’t know better still think that one generation is inferior to the other.

If he were still in the capital, it would definitely not be his turn to fight against Delong. Instead, the eldest brother of the Liu family, Liu Yanhe, who was the best at studying medicine, would fight against Li Dewei, the second eldest son of the Li family.

But now, both of them seem to know how to give up their cars to keep their handsome men, and push their most unpromising son to work as a widower to protect their family's future.

Did he volunteer?

Well, voluntary.

Liu Yanchun lowered his head and revealed a sneer.

"Everyone, please don't argue. It's not up to our government officials to decide whether they can be employed as cooperators. It depends on their own abilities. The one who learns the best will naturally be retained in the county government as a cooperator." Yu Bantou was very satisfied.

, as expected, there is competition, and these talents will be anxious.

Those who do not give up for five pecks of rice will inevitably become a loner without raising a family, or they will eventually become a loner.

Today's harvest was good. As soon as Yu Quan waved, he planned to invite the government officials to return to the county government office.

Just then, a thin little girl ran up to him and pointed at herself.

Yu Quan was an old government official, and he understood what the other party was thinking at a glance. He frowned and said, "Miss Li, do you want to be a coward?"

Chen Yuan nodded.

"Don't make trouble. You're a girl. You should wait at home to get married. Don't cause trouble." Yu Quan waved his hand, "Besides, your eldest brother is already willing to make sacrifices for the Li family, so you don't have to make sacrifices for the Li family anymore."

Worry.”
