After a heavy rain, Wang Yiqian and others received a letter from home, telling them that the rice harvest had begun, and the people they hired would be paid twenty cents a day.
The letter from his family was written by his third son. He talked about the autumn harvest and said that he wanted to go out with his classmates to participate in activities on August 15th the day after tomorrow.
It doesn’t matter if he participates in the activity. The third son’s main point is that his mother won’t give him any money, and his sister-in-law won’t give him any money either. He plans to borrow some money first and pay it back later.
"Alas" Wang Yiqian sighed deeply and shed tears.
"Yi Qian, you are" the village leader thought something had happened to the other party's family.
"My family used to have three children. The second one died in infancy, and the third one wanted to let him study."
Wang Yiqian whispered the situation at home to the head of the village, saying that he was not afraid of flowers. Money, but money should be spent in the right place.
"Yes." After hearing this, the manager frowned and patted Wang Yiqian on the shoulder, "Maybe it would be better if he was older."
After lunch, the manager looked for Silly, he himself didn't believe that Wang Yiqian's third son would get better as he got older.
I asked him to think of a way, but he couldn't think of anything. If this person hadn't been Wang Yiqian, he wouldn't have asked about other people's family affairs.
"Hanhan, do you think it's troublesome?" The director sighed after telling Hanhan what happened.
Zhu Wentian suddenly laughed, "I thought it was such a serious problem. There is a saying in the Three-Character Classic, Xi Meng's mother, choose a neighbor."
"Ah, you mean to let Wang Yiqian and the others move here?" It's not impossible, just say hello to Magistrate Song and he will agree."
"If you don't move, just move him and send him to the official school in Shangyuan County. It's just a place." Zhu Wentian shook his head.
"People will get better when they come here" the village leader was suspicious, even though this was said by the village guard.
"When someone comes, find someone to set him up, gamble money, pay off the debt if he loses, and arrange for him to work in the library.
He doesn't have to count on the imperial examination next year. He has no chance, and he will not take the imperial examination again for a long time.
Working in the library is also a way of making a living. He can give the money he earns to his family.
He just paid off his gambling debt slowly and studied at the same time. I wouldn’t care about anyone else, but Wang Yiqian is worth it.”
Zhu Wentian said the deceiving things with a smile. Simple and honest.
Li Chang swallowed and took a deep breath, "Okay, I'll discuss it with Wang Yiqian."
The next day, August 14th, everyone packed up and went home for the holiday. Construction at the construction site will be stopped first.
The boat did not move very fast and did not arrive at Xiaqiu Village until three quarters past midnight. Wang Yiqian and others brought food and immediately drove home.
In the car, Wang Yiqian told his eldest son Wang Shi about the idea given by Xiaqiu Village. Wang Laowen swallowed after hearing this, "As for my younger brother and sister, we can't leave her alone at home."
"When your brother settles in the library, send her there too and ask Xiaqiu Village to help find a job to see if she can have a baby."
Wang Yiqian Have a plan for this,There is no other way. If my son doesn't learn well, this is the only way.
He took out the transfer order issued by the Shangyuan County Official School. When the time came, he would go to the government office to find someone and go to the Ningguo County Official School where he was to issue a certificate.
"Look, everything has been arranged. Xiaqiu Village can help. Otherwise, with our abilities, your father and I will never think of mobilizing people like this in our lives."
Wang Yiqian understands the preciousness of mobilizing orders. Yuan County is a county of Yingtian Prefecture, and Ningguo County cannot compare with Yuan County.
“I thought we would have to work all the time, but I didn’t expect that we would be allowed to go home so we could harvest rice.” Wang Laowang remembered the wages of 20 cents a day for each person.
"Come back immediately after the festival. How much do we earn in a day? Xiaqiu Village is good to us. We can't delay other people's affairs."
Wang Yiqian disagrees. From what aspect? It's not even worth it. His salary is 200 yuan a day.
A group of children from Xiaqiu Village came back. The adults were happy to see if they had lost weight or grown taller, and then asked about things in Nanjing city.
After dinner, the villagers made mooncakes according to Hanhan’s instructions. They didn’t have time to make mooncakes last year, but they made arrangements for them this year.
Nowadays, mooncakes in the Ming Dynasty are usually just made of flour into a round cake without much filling. Those with fillings must be from wealthy families.
For example, the mooncakes sent from the palace were filled with sugar and meat fillings. They looked like pies, but they were actually pies. The only difference was that they learned how to bake them from Xiaqiu Village.
Zhu Wentian is helpless, he doesn’t want it, the palace won’t make it
The mooncakes in Xiaqiu Village are divided into baked mooncakes and snowskin mooncakes. The fillings include red bean paste and green silk rose. , nut, cream, fruit, and meat floss
There are also molds with auspicious words and patterns on them. The snow-skinned mooncakes are dyed with fruits and vegetables and look crystal clear.
The children are not sleepy anymore and are busy together. Today we are going to make a lot of moon cakes and bring them to the palace.
At the same time, Ningguo Mansion and Taiping Mansion will also give. Ningguo Mansion will give more, and Taiping Mansion will give less.
Shangyuan County and Jiangning County also need to be sent. Even if the business is in Shangyuan County, who knows when I will wander to Jiangning County. If something happens, I can't just go to the prince or the King of Qin.
Everyone was busy until midnight to make all the mooncakes.
Put the mooncakes to be sent away in boxes, ranging from four yuan to eight yuan.
Snowskin mooncakes are packed with ice outside the box and taste good when eaten.
When Yin came out, Zhu Taiyi and Zhu Taier took ten guards and asked the boatman to set off. They passed by the boatman's house first and gave them a box of eight moon cakes before going to Nanjing.
In this way, there is enough time, usually we eat at night, and no one cares about eating at lunch.
According to records, mooncakes made in the Ming Dynasty can be eaten until the end of the month. Obviously, mooncakes made by ordinary people do not contain fillings, otherwise they cannot be preserved.
To put it bluntly, these dry pancakes are used as dry food when traveling far away.
On the other side of Wang Yiqian’s home, his third son Wang ShuI feel unhappy and toss and turn during the night.
He was grounded. He had agreed with others to borrow money tomorrow, but he couldn't go to the party tomorrow.
Wang Yiqian told his son that he had something important to do during the holiday tomorrow and would like to give him a surprise. He wanted to go and have fun. It was obvious that he didn’t want him to leave.
At dawn, Wang Yiqian called his two sons to get up, "I'll have a bowl of porridge soon and come with me."
"Dad, my classmate's party is about the imperial examination. I I didn't do well in the exam this year because I didn't find a way.
You have to be good with the officials in the county, and you have to have people in Ningguo Mansion. Otherwise, it will be useless no matter how hard you take the exam, it's not because the child didn't learn well.
p>At the party my child went to today, there was someone who could help. Make a good relationship with him, and he helped introduce officials in the county."
Wang Shu is still working hard. Use the doorstep as an excuse to cover up your incompetence.
"If you are looking for an official, go directly to him, and the official will not hide from you. If you know someone, the emperor is selecting talents, but if you don't have that ability, the official will dare to send you."
< p>Wang Yiqian didn't believe it. It was really that easy. Why didn't Xiaqiu Village directly arrange for other children to study hard and not take part in the imperial examination at all? I'm afraid it wouldn't work.Xiaqiu Village knows that officials are cooperating with His Highness the King of Qin to do business. Please remember to collect it.
