After the cannon fodder father and daughter married into the family, the whole family regretted it

Shopkeeper Wan noticed it as soon as he looked up, and couldn't help laughing: "Little girl, do you understand?"

Fang Nanzhi shook her head, but said confidently, "Not yet. My brother said he would teach me later. He also said that people who can use an abacus are very capable. How long did it take the shopkeeper uncle to learn it?"

Shopkeeper Wan was amused and stroked his beard. This girl was quite clever. She could tell right away that he was the shopkeeper.

"I've been practicing this for years. If you want to learn, you have to learn to read first."

The little girl nodded in agreement.

"My brother said that I should at least learn the Analects before learning to use an abacus."

After hearing "The Analects of Confucius", Manager Wan became interested. Is there a scholar in this girl's family?

He then looked back and saw the man who came in with the little girl. He had a thin appearance and a capable look in his eyes, but his clothes were covered in patches and he didn't have the temperament of a scholar.

Could it be that the whole family tightened their belts to support their son's education?

"Oh? So where are you at now? Which academy is your brother in?"

Shopkeeper Wan thought the kid was interesting, and since there weren't many customers at this hour, he didn't mind chatting with him for a while.

"I've only learned half of the Three Character Classic." Fang Nanzhi was a little embarrassed, and then said, "But my brother has learned a lot. He's not from a college, but his father is a scholar."

Is your biological father a scholar?

Manager Wan's gaze fell on Fang Tong again, so this person is the stepfather?

Before he could ponder it, the chatterbox Fang Nanzhi continued, "Uncle Shopkeeper, is the academy you mentioned very impressive?"

The little girl did not forget that she had a mandatory task to complete, which was to help her brother study.

"Yes, there are three academies in the county, and Songhe Academy is the best academy because its president is a successful candidate in the imperial examination." Manager Wan didn't know why, but he was quite happy to chat with the kid.

Fang Nanzhi didn't know what a Juren master was.

But she remembered that her uncle was obsessed with taking the imperial examination.

"Uncle, is Juren better than Xiucai?" the little girl asked.

I thought to myself that I must let my brother study hard and make sure he is better than my uncle.

Fang Tong's face was filled with black lines. His daughter was really something. She would talk to anyone she met.

He bowed and said, "I'm sorry to have made you laugh, boss. My daughter is young and naive. I'm sorry to bother you."

Shopkeeper Wan returned the greeting with a half-bow: "Not at all. I actually think the young lady is quite clever. I wonder what brings you here?"

Fang Tong then took out the bamboo basket and introduced the cake.

After trying the food, Shopkeeper Wan decided to order it without much hesitation.

I booked three days, 30 yuan per day. The price was the same as Juxianglou.

He also kept the few remaining pieces of square copper.

After the business was settled, Fang Tong felt relieved. He exchanged a few words of compliment with Manager Wan and was about to take his daughter away.

Hey, I made some money! I have to go home quickly!

Fang Nanzhi was still thinking about something, and only came back to his senses when he was pulled out. He waved his hand behind him and said, "Boss, make a fortune. See you next time."

Shopkeeper Wan couldn't help but smile: "Let's get rich together, but you are young, so you need to study hard."

After leaving Qingfeng Tower, we walked far away.

Fang Tongcai taught his daughter: "It's okay to chat with people, and being sweet is also a good thing, but my daughter, don't be too honest. You almost revealed our family background in just a few words."

He is a gangster, has never been to school and doesn't know the principles of life.

But he knew that he had to be cautious when interacting with someone he had just met.

Some people just can't open up to each other even after knowing each other for a long time.

Fang Nanzhi nodded perfunctorily and said hurriedly, "Dad, let's go to Songhe Academy and take a look?"

"Ah? What are you going to do there?" Fang Tong was stunned.

"Go and see, send your brother to school. He will also take the imperial examination. He will definitely be better than your uncle." Fang Nanzhi vowed.

Fang Tong frowned.

It's not that he doubted Qin Yan. In his opinion, his elder brother was already old and had to take the county examination five or six times before he could barely pass. His talent was really nothing compared to that of his adopted son.

But how can the family afford to support a scholar right now?

Studying costs a lot of money. As someone who has been sucked dry by his elder brother for many years, how could Fang Tong not know this?

In addition, there is a more important point.

"Zhizhi, I don't know if your brother's leg can be healed. It seems that he can't take the imperial examination if his leg is not healed." Fang Tong heard this from his elder brother, that people with disabilities cannot take the exam.

When Fang Nanzhi heard this, her eyebrows wrinkled. Then she thought of something, her eyes lit up, and she pulled at the corner of her father's clothes.

Fang Tong bent down cooperatively, and the little girl leaned over and whispered in his ear about the system brother giving him a one-day rejuvenation pill.

She has already saved up seven or eight, enough for her brother's exam.

Fang Tong was shocked. Are gods so powerful?

However, after a moment's thought, he shook his head: "That won't work either. After I pass the exam, I'll still have to socialize and deal with other people. I can't still be in a wheelchair by then, right? If it gets out, people will be suspicious."

For example, when his eldest brother had just passed the county examination, he went out for social events every now and then.

I didn't see him go out for social events, but he spent a lot of money.

"Oh." Fang Nanzhi sighed in distress. It seemed that the task given by the system brother this time was not easy to complete.

"It's okay. Let's see how our cake business is going first. Once we make money, I'll naturally take your brother to get his leg treated." Fang Tong rubbed the little girl's head.

The only way to solve the problem once and for all is to cure the leg directly.

"Okay." Fang Nanzhi nodded, but then said worriedly, "Dad, don't be stingy when the time comes."

"What are you talking about?" Fang Tong was unhappy: "When has your father ever been stingy with my family?"

This sucks kid.

Fang Nanzhi hurriedly smiled ingratiatingly.

Fang Tong touched his chin and muttered to himself, "However, let's not waste that rejuvenation pill. We should find a chance to try it. If it really works, it can be used in an emergency."

Mushan Village.

In the Qin family courtyard, in the east room, the door was closed.

[Congratulations, host, your health has reached 100! Do you want to try to stand up?]

The system's voice sounded in his mind, and Qin Yan's breathing became heavier.

All these health points were accumulated bit by bit by him while teaching the little girl to read.

"Yes!"

He replied softly in his heart.

[Ding Dong! Activation successful!] System reminder.

Even though Qin Yan is always mature beyond his years, he couldn't help but tremble all over.

He took two deep breaths to calm himself down, then supported the wheelchair with both hands and exerted force.

He! He stood up!

Qin Yan's eyes were red. He thought that he would be a cripple for the rest of his life. Not only would he be unable to protect his mother, but he would also become a burden.

I never thought that this day would come.

Qin Yan suppressed his excitement and took a tentative step. The long-lost feeling of being grounded made him feel at ease.

But the next moment, the strength in his legs seemed to be drained away, and then his body went limp and he fell back into the wheelchair.

"System? What's going on?"

[Host, don't panic. This is normal. Your current health is too low. You can only stand for one second a day. Please do more tasks. Once your health reaches 1000, your standing time will be increased to one hour.]
