Eating big melon is so refreshing

Xiao Chunya and Xiao Qiu went to eat tofu pudding and then took a walk around the neighborhood. When they returned home, they received a visiting card from Mr. Mingyue next door.

In the whole Xiaowang Village, only Jiang Tang's family had this honor. Young Master Mingyue came to visit with candies and snacks. He handled it just right, making people feel neither arrogant nor approachable. He made people feel awe and submission, worthy of being a noble young man trained by an aristocratic family.

Auspicious fruit, crystal jelly, peanut butter cake, each of which is a small portion, and these are all Xiao Chunya’s favorite foods.

Xiao Qiulin's eyes were full of contempt. This flattery was too obvious. Where was the nobleman's modesty?

Young Master Mingyue gave him a look in return. They had known each other for more than ten years. Who was he being so reserved for?

“Ahhh, it’s so delicious! It’s worth the time. This is the most authentic pastry, I can finish ten kilograms of it a day!” Xiao Chunya’s voice rang out, and the word “travel through time” was blocked by the system.

Master Mingyue's eyes were filled with horror, but returned to normal in an instant. Xiao Qiulin, who was standing next to him, knew that he had heard his sister's thoughts.

Xiao Qiulin observed carefully and was sure that his grandparents couldn't hear it at such a close distance. They really couldn't hear it.

Aunt Qiao said, "Mr. Mingyue visited the Jiang family because the Jiang family happened to be next door to his house, not because the Jiang family was special."

Hong Liupo agreed, "Zhao Erlang used to be a yamen runner, it's not something to brag about."

Whether he admits it or not, Master Mingyue treats the two children of the Jiang family differently. He does not deal with other people's children.

For example, Xiaocao passed by the gate of the mansion N times a day, but the servant guarding the gate was extremely indifferent, so Xiaocao couldn't find a chance to come in.

Soon, people in the village discovered that the two children of Jiang Tang's family often visited the neighboring house. People passing by the gate of the mansion would often hear the sound of reading aloud coming from inside, and they were extremely jealous and envious.

Education is the most expensive thing. It is already a great achievement for a farm boy in the countryside to recognize a few words. If he is sent to an ordinary private school for a year or two, the money spent will be as painful as cutting flesh.

The girls in the village are even more of a waste of money. It’s enough to have a bowl of porridge every day to keep them from starving to death. Yet you still want to study and learn to read. Why don’t you go to heaven?

The twins were different from the boys and girls in the village. Zhao Erlang had been a yamen runner in the county government for three years. He was literate, and his two children were of course literate as well, as they had been taught by their family.

"Before Master Mingyue came, the two children of Jiang Tang's family had already memorized the Three Character Classic. Who said they couldn't read?"

"The noble said that the little girl has the fate of being an official's wife. She is different from the wild girls in the village. She is born to be rich and noble."

As a result, the elder of the Jiang family secretly talked to Jiang Tang to find a way to make Xiao Qiulin change his surname to Jiang. Anyway, the Zhao family had many grandchildren and didn't need any more.

"No, Erlang didn't marry into the Jiang family. It was agreed that his second son would have the surname Jiang."

Jiang Tang felt that one should not go back on one's word. He only regretted that he did not know that his daughter had been given infertility drugs. Otherwise, he would have insisted that his first grandson would have the surname Jiang. Now it was too late to say anything.

"Then let Xiao Qiu'er and the girl from the Jiang family get engaged."

"This is even worse. Xiao Qiu'er won't be able to go far on the road to the imperial examination without a backer. His future in-laws must be officials in the court." Jiang Tang made his own plan. "I've thought about it. Xiao Qiu'er's first son will have the surname Jiang. He will be a yamen official from birth."

"How long will this take?"

"Ten years later, Xiao Qiu'er will be fourteen years old. He should pass the county examination and become a Tongsheng."

The clan elder said a lot of things that were actually paving the way for the future. He knew, of course, that Xiao Qiulin would not change his surname to Jiang, and he wanted to arrange an engagement between his six-year-old granddaughter and Xiao Qiulin.

"Things that are too far away will have many variables. Sigh, I hope I can live that long."

After saying a few hurtful words, the elder left.

Jiang Tang sneered. The elder seemed to have forgotten how he had hit him in the past. Now that he saw the benefits, he wanted to come over and pick the peaches. What a daydream!

He had no good feelings towards the Jiang clan members. It would take a long time to wait for his great-grandson to achieve success. It would be great if he had his own grandson.

Young Master Mingyue had printed copies of "Three Character Classic", "Hundred Family Names" and "Thousand Character Classic", all of which he had learned before. What he was learning now was "The Great Learning" among the Four Books. He also provided free pens, ink, paper and inkstone. The thing that young master's family had the most was money.

Xiao Chunya and Xiao Qiulin certainly would not take advantage of others. They were too young and writing was difficult for them, so they used a brush dipped in water to write on the table. After they became familiar with the strokes, they dipped the brush in ink and wrote on white paper, which saved a lot of paper and ink sticks.

Zhao Erlang and Jiang felt that the child should have a playmate, and they were very relieved to let the child stay at Master Mingyue's house to study and learn to read. Due to their busy business, the couple went out early and came back late during this period.

"Dad bought two acres of land?"

"It's just outside the city. One tael of silver per mu of dry farmland." Zhao Erlang said, "The vegetables in the county town are worth the price. From now on, your mother will manage the vegetable farm and won't have to go to the dock with me."

"Dad, let's plant pumpkins." Xiao Chunya blurted out, mainly because she wanted to eat them.

"Pumpkin? What is that?" Was there such a pumpkin in the Daye Dynasty?

"This is a new crop from overseas. Young Master Mingyue provided the seeds." Xiao Qiulin's seamless connection did not arouse his parents' suspicion.

"You can eat pumpkins from seedlings, flowers, small pumpkins, to old pumpkins. You don't have to worry about the old pumpkins. They are delicious."

Xiao Chunya said, "Pumpkin seeds are delicious too. They are a treasure. Tomorrow morning my brother and I will follow our mother to plant vegetables in the fields."

The well water in my brother's space can be diluted and used to grow vegetables, which can ensure the survival rate of the seeds to a greater extent.

Jiang Tang asked, "The vegetable field is the piece of land outside the city, right?" Xiaowang Village is right next to the city wall, only two miles away, and can be reached by walking.

"Father, it's right there." Jiang said, "That place is very popular. We are lucky to have the opportunity this time."

During the two months of being suppressed by the mad dog Shen Youcai, whether it was Zhao Erlang or Jiang Shi and Jiang Tang, they all desperately wanted a piece of land. Even if they lost their jobs, they would still have food to eat, so they would not be in a hurry.

Putting herself in his shoes, Xiao Chunya felt that since Young Master Mingyue treated people with sincerity, she and her brother should treat him as a good friend. As a young master from a noble family, he was not short of money, but what he lacked was real friends.

My younger brother has a very high IQ. In his previous life, he was actually very lonely. Apart from his sister, the second-generation rich man upstairs could barely be considered a friend. The relationship with parents in the previous life was shallow, so we should cherish it even more in this life.

"Dad, are you tired? Let me massage your back." The caring little cotton jacket is online, although it often leaks air.
