Be a master through ancient times
Chapter 77
"What are you arguing about here?!"
An old man came out of the room, with the corners of her eyes hanging up slightly, as if she was carrying a knife when she looked at people. The three daughters-in-law felt a little terrified when she looked at them like that, and the scene was extremely quiet for an instant.
"It's everyone's, you say it first." The old woman said.
"Mom... I just came here too, and I still can't figure it out... You should ask them two..."
"You weren't the one who was talking when I first came out? Since you don't know anything, don't talk indiscriminately in the future, just stay in the room if you have nothing to do!" The old woman glared at her, Yang froze, and hurriedly retreated.
"The second one, since she won't say it, then you can say it."
Chen wanted to howl again, but was glared at by the old lady, and the voice was snapped back with a "crack".
"Mother, didn't you say that Chu Xiucai is coming to the door today, so that we can entertain you? I have been waiting in the front yard early in the morning. When Chu Xiucai comes, I will invite him to sit in. Due to the lack of manpower, I asked Taohua to help make a pot of tea. I didn’t expect the child next to Chu Xiucai to suddenly push my Taohua. We still couldn’t figure it out, but after they went out, the third sibling rushed out and beat My Taohua slapped me. Mom, don’t you often say that Taohua is a spoiled guest? The third sibling hit her in front of a foreigner, how can she get married in the future? Why not just twist her hair and become a sister-in-law!”
Chen covered her face with her sleeves and began to cry.Taohua also cried again.The mother and daughter cried miserably, as if they had been wronged so much.
The old woman's expression remained unchanged, she looked at Chu Yun who was standing aside. "Third daughter-in-law, tell me."
"There are no outsiders here today, so I'll just say it straight. It's not that my natal family has never been here before, but my second sister-in-law is so enthusiastic. You said you asked Taohua to make tea, but they didn't appreciate it, and even pushed Taohua. Is it right? Tea was spilled all over her body, but why did I see that Taohua didn’t have any blisters on her body? Why did the house rules change to cold water for serving guests?”
Chu Yun looked at the mother and daughter with mocking eyes. She discovered this when she just lifted the peach blossoms. It was hard not to make people feel that they had no other plans in their hearts.
"Also, isn't it normal for the elders to teach the younger ones? In the past, when the second sister-in-law taught Xinxin my family, she never made a distinction between home and outside, and whenever she thought of it, she would yell at her? Besides, I was thinking about the An family's reputation. Ruo Taohua If you don't change your temper, if you go out in the future, you will lose face to the An family."
The old lady of the An family stared at Chu Yun with a strange look. She has been here for more than ten years, and she has never shown such an expression. It seems that what the second family thinks is really not going to work.
She coughed and said: "What the old third family said is right, our An family can't lose face. If the second family is confused for a moment, I will punish you to wash the clothes of everyone in the whole family for a month. If there is any damage, you will be fined." The family's rations are deducted. As for Taohua, why don't you go back to your room to stay? I have already accepted the Sun's family who came to kiss me the day before yesterday, and I will come to hire you in a few days. You should not go out during this time. From the third family, do you think this is okay?"
"The mother-in-law is in charge, and the daughter-in-law has no complaints." Chu Yun's face was calm, as if she had returned to her previous appearance.
However, the Chen family and An Taohua were struck by five thunderbolts. The Sun family has a small family, and there is a mother-in-law with a notorious reputation in the family. It is said that they treat their daughter-in-law extremely harshly.With An Taohua's temperament, this trip will definitely be tortured!Obviously this old man promised her that he would try his best to make Taohua and Chu Xiucai work together!
Just as she was about to have a seizure, she saw Old Madam An staring at her sullenly, and recalling her usual methods of torturing people, Chen's feet softened, it's over!
After driving Chen Shi and An Taohua back to the room, An's mother immediately changed her expression and became kind and friendly.
"Chu Xiucai laughed at me. That woman came from a small family and never knew how to be polite. Today, she was kind-hearted, but she made such a fuss. Please don't be offended by Chu Xiucai. Your aunt and I have always been daughters. I love her as much, isn't her family and us the same family? When I heard that your family built a new house, I immediately remembered that it was inconvenient for my niece and daughter-in-law to have a big belly, so I asked your uncle and aunt to quickly take her over to take care of her. Now I am so happy Qianjin, you haven't seen it yet, have you? Don't be in a bad mood because of what happened just now, go and see it."
In Chu Ci's opinion, the old lady's speech was also very good.First, he lightly turned today's dirty things into the result of an ignorant woman doing bad things with good intentions, and then proposed that Aunt Chu, a "hostage", would live under her hands, and finally moved out the kindness of the An family to the Chu family during this period , so that Chu Ci could not tear his face.
Chu Ci smiled and said: "The old lady is fair and strict, so how can Xiaosheng care about it? During this period of time, you will be taken care of by the old man. When the new house of the Chu family is completed, it is inevitable that you will be invited to live in the old man for a little bit of happiness. You old man should be tired too, so I won't bother you too much."
Chu Ci didn't want to break his face. The old lady is a smart person, and smart people do things very properly. As long as he keeps going up, Aunt Chu's life in this house will definitely be extremely comfortable. Why bother to make a Is it difficult for Aunt Chu to be caught in the ending of old age and death without contact?
After hearing Chu Ci's words, Old Madam An smiled even brighter, and repeatedly told Chu Ci not to see outsiders, and to live here as her own.
What happened in the front yard is not very clear to the back yard. Mother Chu and the others are here to visit, so why would they rush to join in the fun?
When Chuci and the others came over, their faces were already calm.
Mother Chu was very happy to see Chu Ci and the others, and hurriedly pulled a few people to express their condolences.Because Chuci didn't go into the confinement room like Xiaoyuan and Yu'er, Mother Chu wrapped up the little girl and carried her out.
Chu Ci looked at the little girl brought out by Chu's mother. Although she was only five or six days old, she had rosy skin, jet-black hair, a small upturned nose, and a small cherry mouth.When she opened her eyes, those big almond eyes looked at others, Chu Ci's heart almost melted.
"Shanshan, I'm my uncle, you grow up quickly, my uncle will earn money for you by drawing pictures." Chu Ci softly coaxed the little girl of the Chu family, this picture made Chu's mother smile You can't keep your mouth shut.
Chu Ci took out a few things he had prepared and put them together in Chu Shanshan's package.When Chu's mother saw it, she sighed, "Why did you buy so many? Ordinary girls have the same thing, and it's worth being happy for a lifetime."
"There will be more in the future, mother, don't worry, our Chu family will only get better and better."
While the two were talking, Chu Xiaoyuan and Zhong Liyu also came out from Shen Xiuniang, and the cloth bags hanging on their bodies were full of cakes and fruits.
Chu Xiaoyuan pulled Mother Chu's clothes and said, "Grandma, let Yu'er and I hug my sister too?"
"My sister is not grown well yet, and your uncle can't even hug her. You can hold her again in a few months." Seeing the disappointed expressions of the two of them instantly, Mother Chu comforted her, "You can't hug her, but you can take a look. Touch it."
She sat down on the low couch next to her, exposed the baby to the two of them, and touched the baby's face with two trembling little fingers.
Chu Shanshan felt the little brothers' caution, and the corners of her mouth slightly raised, as if she was smiling, which made the boys next to her giggle.
……
Since the last time I went home to visit my little niece, Chu Ci worked harder.There are more and more sweet burdens. If he doesn't work hard, the happy life will only be in vain.
Every day at dawn, he would go to the lake to study with his books in his hands, and he would blow out the candles and return from the dormitory after the teachers patrolled the night.
As the saying goes, those who are more talented than you are more diligent than you, how can other people live?Everyone who fell into this bitter feeling had to work overtime with Chu Ci to read books and do homework.
Chuci also felt a sense of crisis as the teaching dormitory became full day by day. What happened to this group of people?One by one suddenly worked hard, so that he would be under a lot of pressure!So he worked harder.
The masters of the county school are naturally happy to see the results. The students work so hard, maybe a few more people will be able to pass the provincial examination this year.
The sun and the moon fly by, time flies, and it is almost the end of the month in a blink of an eye.
When Chu Ci was called to the study by the head of the mountain, he found that Chen Zifang and Jiang Huai were already there.
"I don't know why the head of the mountain wanted the three of us?"
"I don't know, is it possible that we are asked to arrange the location?"
Before the head of the mountain arrived, the three began to discuss.Chu Ci suddenly remembered the master he met at the beginning of the month, presumably the reason why the head of the mountain came to them today was for that matter.
Sure enough, when the head of the mountain came, he said that the three of them were recommended by all the masters of the county school, and asked them to replace Yuanshan County school to go to the prefectural school to participate in the competition. students.
Judging from the results of previous competitions, Yuanshan County School and Maoshan County School next door have always been brothers and sisters. Among the eight academies, the two counties have always been competing for the second-to-last and third-to-last.
But to say that it is miserable, it is still the school in Junshan County under the Ganzhou Prefecture.Because it is a county directly under the jurisdiction of Ganzhou Prefecture, the county school is not far from the government school.Whether it is the faculty or the conditions for running a school, it is far inferior to the prefectural school.
This also led to all the excellent students rushing to the prefectural school. Occasionally, the county school had a few good seedlings, and the masters of the prefectural school were like hyenas smelling carrion, and dug them back with a shovel.
The quality of the students is not good, and every year in the competition, they are always flat and ridiculed, and they sit firmly at the bottom of the list.Sometimes the head of the Junshan County School would like to say that it should not be called the "Eighth Academy Literature Society" in the future, and it should be directly changed to the Seventh Academy.
The head of the mountain informed that the result is that the dust has settled.After the three agreed to come down, the head of the mountain asked them to go back and get ready. After the monthly exam tomorrow, he sent a carriage to take them there, led by Master Zhu.
After the three left Shanchang's study, Chen Zifang didn't say a word, looking a little worried.
"Brother Zhongxing, what's wrong with you?"
Jiang Huai was very excited. He had the honor to go to this essay meeting in previous years. He could see many talented students there, and he could spread many interesting articles. Most importantly, he could make a name for himself.
Chu Ci is quite strange, because the original owner has never been there.But if you think about it carefully, it makes sense.The original owner is introverted and reticent, and he is not good at communicating. Sending him out is considered embarrassing for him.Master Qin knew him very well, so he would not recommend him. When other masters recommended him, he would also reject him. This is also a kind of love for his disciples.
"It's nothing." Chen Zifang smiled at him, then lowered the corners of his mouth, still looking the same.
An old man came out of the room, with the corners of her eyes hanging up slightly, as if she was carrying a knife when she looked at people. The three daughters-in-law felt a little terrified when she looked at them like that, and the scene was extremely quiet for an instant.

Chen wanted to howl again, but was glared at by the old lady, and the voice was snapped back with a "crack".
