Go back to ancient times to be a royal merchant

I don’t know if it’s because the old man’s bad luck is in power, or if it’s because the heavens value the children who are added to the family. First, they have to suffer, exhaust their muscles and bones, starve their bodies, and empty their bodies... Whether it’s the former or the latter, the Wang family must stay here for a while now. Time, to earn future expenses, otherwise it would be a problem to go to the next city, let alone return to the hometown.

Master Wang could think of a way to make money, which was to copy books, and he asked his eldest son to go to the study to find out if there was any work for copying books, while he went to find a place to live. He planned to stay here for a long time, so he couldn't live in an inn.Tian Ding expressed his relief that his father had made a smart decision. Their family is not a big family anymore. They are just asking for trouble when they talk about ostentation. Look at the rooms they live in along the way. , If you want to live in a nice house in Chaoyang, you really think of yourself as a master, and don't think about how much money you have in your pocket to spend.The so-called poor family rich road does not refer to the prodigal who can spend extravagantly on the road.Tian Ding felt pain when he thought about the meaningless money spent.

Tian Ding couldn't figure out what was going on in his father's mind. Every time he saw his father's extravagant behavior, he wanted to pull his father's clothes and ask him how much money he had. Did he want to sell his sons and daughters for his extravagant expenses? ?Tian Ding only dares to think about it, but how dare he put it into action.What makes Tian Ding depressed is the elder brother besides the father. The mother is not in good health. Even if she is in good health, according to the women's code of this era, the husband is the heaven, the mother will not speak to persuade the father, but why doesn't the elder brother say it? It's the age of coronation, although there is no coronation ceremony, but the birthday has passed!You are an adult, you are an adult, you are an adult, don't you know that your family has fallen?Thinking about the eldest brother's temperament, Tim Ding threw himself on the table, full of powerlessness.

Mrs. Wang thought her youngest son was sleepy, so she patted her son's back lightly, looking out the window, hoping that the husband would come back soon.Wu Xiuyun lowered her head and carefully embroidered the pattern in her hand, while thinking about whether the embroidery in her hand could supplement the household.

Mr. Wang walked around outside, and actually rented a courtyard, and the monthly payment was cheap. The family moved there with their things. The carriage belonged to the Wang family, and the groom was a former servant. I gave them all, but Master Wang still regarded the other party as his servant.Seeing that Mr. Wang's family was staying here, the groom thought of going back, but seeing that the weather was still cloudy and rainy, he didn't mention the matter of leaving.

No one would have thought that after stopping for a month and starting again, it took them a whole year and a half to reach their hometown. When they arrived, Mrs. Wang was in very poor health and could only lie in bed for a long time, while Mr. Wang became Old man Wang, the pillar of his family became Wang Xiubo.The hardships along the way are not good for outsiders, and Tian Ding looked at his father with a look of hatred for iron and steel, isn't it just a dismissal of an official?It's not that I want to kill you, although I'm not old, but I still have children to support, so I have to act like the sky is falling.

Master Wang thought that he and his son could make a living by copying books, but he and his son were too slow, and the words did not catch the eyes of the boss of the study. Even if he hinted at his previous identity, the boss just replied with a sneer. He and XX belonged to the same family 500 years ago, what is there to say about the old almanac.Master Wang was so angry that he argued with the other party. The boss of the study directly threw out the books they had copied, and then let them say that their study would not accept the books they copied.Mr. Wang is not a man of management, and he still puts up a score, and someone else will accept it.I don't want to take the book I copied, but no one accepts it when I hit a wall everywhere.

Tian Ding shook his head when he heard about it, his father put on too much airs, does he still think he is the prime minister?What is there for a former prime minister to show off his might, squinting his head and keeping a low profile is the high choice. Does this behavior mean that he can still stand up, or does he want to see the king of hell sooner?The son of humanity never speaks of his father's faults, but Tianding really has no choice but to complain.Ever since the way of copying books was cut off, Mr. Wang has been booing and sighing every day, either saying that Zhou Lihuang is bad, or criticizing the owner of the study for being ignorant, and saying that the world is cold and cold. carbon.

Every day I only know how to read three times and four times, but I don’t know how to make a living. Some people come here because of the reputation. Please think of Master Wang as an enlightenment teacher for the children in the family. What is your current status, you are humiliated, and you don't even have the money to support your family.My mother dragged her sick body to work for the family all day long, and my father thought he was too vegetarian, so he paid for it!When he was on the road again, he pawned everything he could pawn at home, and sold all the embroidered things his mother and sister embroidered, but they were not expensive. Master Wang knew about this and scolded the businessman for being unscrupulous.Tian Ding has practiced so hard that he is no longer angry, and he is full of disappointment with his father.

After going on the road, God seemed to punish their family. There were various difficulties along the way, and every step was a pit, and had to stop and go. The groom was sincere and did not leave them, even if he did not Saying goodbye, Tianding will not blame the other party. Although the hardships along the way are not as good as the end of the world, they are still imprinted in my heart.When he arrived at his hometown, looking at the dilapidated three rooms, Tian Ding walked around calmly.

"But the sixth son of the Wang family is back?" Xiaocun is far away from the capital, and he is not very clear about what happened in the capital, even after nearly two years. Affected by the disaster, taxes have been raised for two consecutive years.The money for exempting from corvee has tripled.The village chief heard the report from the villagers that a large carriage was heading towards the old house of the sixth son of the Wang family, and the village chief immediately came to have a look.

"Uncle Tang!" Master Wang bowed to Uncle Tang with a sad expression on his face.

All the children standing behind Master Wang bowed to those who came. Tian Ding looked at the village chief. From the outside, he was a kind person, but he didn't know what was going on inside.Master Wang didn't say that he was dismissed from office and came back, he only said "one emperor, one courtier" sounding words.The village chief asked about Wang Laoliu's daughter-in-law, and Mr. Wang lamented that his wife suffered with him, and she was exhausted from the exhaustion of the journey.

The village chief tried to comfort him, but he didn't sit for long. The family had just arrived and they had to clean up. The village chief wanted to go back and talk to the patriarch. These years, they used Wang Laoliu's reputation and no one dared to bully them in the county. Dominant everywhere, no one dares to bully Wangcun from ten miles and eight villages.It's different now, when Wang Laoliu returns to the village, the official is gone, so he has to think carefully about what to do in the future.

Mr. Wang didn't know his uncle's heart. Not long after his uncle left, the eldest son of the family came over with some grain, noodles and wild vegetables, but he couldn't accept it.Tian Ding completely ignored his father's eyes, can he eat his face?Tian Ding was so angry with his father that he gave the good carriage to the groom, Nima, how much money can that carriage cost, how much are those two horses worth, what a poor man.

After the uncle of the village chief's family left, Mr. Wang first scolded his son for insulting his status, and then ordered the eldest son to send the things back. Just as Wang Xiubo was going to get them, Tim Ding jumped out. "Hasn't father seen the reality clearly? Do you still think of yourself as a prime minister with a role? Do you still think that you are a rich man with a lot of money?" Tian Ding had a straight face, and he had endured it for a long time. "Our family has no food, no noodles, no vegetables, and my mother still needs medical money. For the sake of the so-called face, does my father want to starve the whole family and my father? Is my father trying to force my mother to death before continuing?" Tian Ding The last sentence was a bit embarrassing. Mr. Wang could not say that he was particularly good to his wife, but he was not bad. After coming to Beijing, it is not that he has never seen a beauty, but he has been able to support his wife so far, so he has no intention of continuing.

Master Wang raised his hand and slapped his youngest son, and said sharply, "Are you accusing the father?"

"That's right, it's just accusations. What has my father done all the way? He's cut off his way of making a living, doesn't think about making progress, and doesn't change his extravagance. Does our family have money for my father to spend a lot of money? The carriage could have been What did father do to exchange money for the family's needs for a year?" Tian Ding looked up at his father with a stubborn expression on his face.

"Are you complaining about giving away the carriage for your father? The groom will accompany us all the way, and the father has no money to pay, so what's wrong with using the carriage as capital?"

"Father is taking the meaning out of context. The son is not just referring to the carriage." Tian Ding stared at his father with wide eyes.

Master Wang was annoyed by his youngest son Chunchun's angry eyes. He turned around and entered the room, flicking his sleeves.Wang Xiubo looked at the things in his hand, looked at his father, and then at his younger brother, whether they were sent back or not, the family really needed food.Tian Ding looked at the dilapidated old house with a very bad expression.Wang Xiubai patted his little brother on the shoulder, "Don't worry, big brother is here."

The second unreliable person in the family is the elder brother, not as good as the elder sister, at least the elder sister knows how to exchange embroidery for money.But listening to the elder brother's words, Tian Ding was still very moved, with tears in his eyes, not because of the slap just now, nor because of the poor life, just because of a sentence.

Later, the village chief and patriarch of Wangcun came with several old people and asked Wang Laoliu what his plan was. Wang Laoliu didn't answer a word, but Wang Xiubai stood aside and respectfully responded to the elders' words.With half of his swollen face on his face, Tian Ding sat and listened with his ears turned upside down.Wang Xiubai didn't mention the matter of tribute to the land, but only said that he would repair the house, and after the repairs were completed, he would rush to take the exam, so he had to save face and come back.

Tian Ding raised his head and knew that he couldn't believe his elder brother's words. Where did the money for the exam come from?borrow money?Where does the money needed for daily life come from?borrow money?

"Lao Liu, our village uses the money to build a school, how can I ask you to be my master?" The village chief thought carefully, how could Lao Liu also rank first in the eyes of the emperor, teaching students, maybe there will be another one in the village. champion.As for Wang Xiubai rushing for the exam, the village head thought it was not easy.

Tian Ding's ears were pricked up, thinking that the village head was giving them living expenses!Going to the school to teach is good, at least you don’t have to worry about food during the New Year’s and holidays. Tim Ding thinks well, but Master Wang pours cold water on him, "my nephew has no interest in studying." After hearing what his father said, Tim Ding felt that his whole body was not good. Hundreds of thousands of divine beasts galloped past his chest.
