Bracelet space through the past and present? Take it

"Sister Lingling, I..." Zhou Zhuo hesitated to speak.

He wanted to study, but his family couldn't afford to send him to such a good academy, and he couldn't ask his sister Lingling to pay for it...

Zhou Lingling looked at Zhou Zhuo and understood what he meant at a glance.

"Brother Zhuo, do you want to give up this hard-earned opportunity?"

Zhou Zhuo was stunned.

Yes, does he really want to give up this hard-earned opportunity?

"Two taels of silver per semester, only four taels per year. With Zhuo Ge's talent and hard work, and with the careful instruction of the teachers at Mingzhao Academy, Zhuo Ge will surely pass the examination to become a scholar in just one year. In three years, he'll most likely pass the examination to become a juren, or even a jinshi, and enter the imperial court to become an official, bringing honor to our family."

At this point, Zhou Lingling asked him, "Even three years is only twelve taels of silver. So, Brother Zhuo, are you going to give up your whole life for these twelve taels of silver?"

As soon as Zhou Lingling finished speaking, Zhou Zhuo's chest rose and fell noticeably more.

Those who passed the examinations and became scholars, juren, or even jinshi could become officials in the court and bring honor to their family.

Apart from the first point, Zhou Zhuo hadn't considered anything else. He simply wanted to be like the teacher in Dayan Village, and after passing the imperial examination, he would return to Zhoujia Village and open a private school to teach the children in the village...

"Can I really?"

Zhou Zhuo was still a little hesitant. The future that Zhou Lingling described to him was so shocking.

Zhou Lingling smiled lightly and said meaningfully, "Brother Zhuo, if you don't do it, it will never be possible."

If you do it, there may be a chance.

After understanding Zhou Lingling's implied meaning, Zhou Zhuo's aura suddenly changed. The hesitation in his eyes gradually disappeared and became firm.

Then he took two steps back and bowed deeply to Zhou Lingling.

"Thank you, Sister Lingling, for clearing up my confusion."

Zhou Lingling dodged to the side and heard Zhou Zhuo say, "I'll ask Xiaochi to bring the IOU to you tomorrow when I get to the academy."

She did not refuse, "Okay, I believe Brother Zhuo can do it!"

On the other side of the wall, Xiao Yan put down the book in his hand after hearing this conversation.

"If I don't do it, it will never be possible..."

Feiyu also nodded: "What the Zhou family girl said is quite interesting, but it feels strangely right."

If you do nothing, nothing will be possible. But if you do something, there is still a glimmer of hope.

Xiao Yan looked at his legs, and every time he moved, he felt a piercing pain.

Although the remaining poison has been eliminated, the previous poison has already penetrated into his bone marrow. The old hospital official said that it will take at least two months for the toxins in his body to be completely eliminated.

"How's the matter I asked you to investigate going?"

Fei Yu replied, "I checked. It is indeed the former Minister of Rites, Lord Liu Hong. After resigning from his post, Lord Liu brought his wife and children to Yunshui County ten years ago and established a family academy here. The Liu family also has a son who works in the Ministry of Justice in Shangjing."

"Mingzhao Academy has educated many students over the years, and the highest-ranking official now is Shaoyin of Jingzhao Prefecture. Oh, that's the Mingzhao Academy that the eldest son of the Zhou family visited today."

Mingzhao Academy...

Will the affairs of this world ever truly become clear?

"Well, you don't have to keep an eye on the Zhou family from now on." Xiao Yan ordered.

Feiyu was stunned for a moment, then quickly agreed.

"Yes, master."

The Zhou family actually managed to make their master let down his guard in such a short time.

When Chen came back with the vegetables, Zhou Laoer and Daqin also came back.

The two people's loud voices could be heard from a distance.

"Xiao Zhuo, I heard that you and Xiao Chi were both admitted to the academy in town?"

As soon as Daqin entered the yard, he caught Zhou Zhuo and asked him.

Zhou Zhuo was no longer as timid as before, but nodded with a smile: "That's right, Uncle Daqin."

"Good boy! Now the old patriarch is so happy that he will wake up from his sleep!"

Daqin reached out and patted Zhou Zhuo, and his big hand made him stagger.

Zhou Laoer pulled him away angrily, "Be gentle, Zhuo Ge'er is a scholar, do you think he is as rough as you?"

Daqin quickly apologized: "Oh, I'm sorry, I'm sorry, uncle's hands are strong, did it hurt you?"

Zhou Zhuo was not angry, but smiled and said, "Uncle, it doesn't hurt at all."

Daqin laughed and carried in several sacks from outside the door with Zhou Laoer.

Zhou Lao Er called his daughter over and said:

"My daughter, I have 100 kilograms of sorghum and wheat each. I didn't buy the fruit you wanted. There are plenty of those in the mountains. Let's not spend the money. I'll go pick them for you tomorrow."

Zhou Lingling's eyes lit up and she said happily, "Okay, okay, I'll go with Dad tomorrow."

Zhou Lao Er: "...Well, daughter, why don't you just stay home and wait for daddy?"

The main reason was that his daughter had never come back safely after going into the mountains several times.

Even Zhou Laoer was scared.

Zhou Lingling: “…”

Zhou Lingling said with a serious face, "If Dad doesn't take me, I'll go by myself."

She had already promised Fuguier that she would find more medicinal plants for it.

"Why not take you?"

When Chen came out of the kitchen, she heard the father and son whispering to each other. After listening for a while, she asked.

Zhou Lao Er scratched his head, wanting his wife to persuade his daughter, but he met his daughter's pleading eyes...

Daddy, dear daddy, don’t tell mommy!

Zhou Laoer scratched his head and chose to remain silent between his wife and daughter.

Zhou Lingling immediately said, "It's nothing, Mom. Dad said he's sending my eldest brother to the academy tomorrow morning and he won't take me with him!"

Upon hearing this, Chen immediately looked at Zhou Lao Er dangerously: "Why don't you take my daughter with you?"

Zhou Laoer watched his daughter talking nonsense in front of his wife, but was powerless to refute her.

"...Bring her, bring her, I will definitely bring her."

What a little ancestor!

Had lunch,

Zhou Lingling moved two large vats out of the space and placed them in the empty room next door, then called Zhou Laoer.

"Dad, you and Uncle Daqin will help me wash these two sacks of wheat and sorghum rice several times this afternoon, then put them into these two large vats and soak them in clean water."

Zhou Laoer stared at the two vats that were bigger than his daughter. Suddenly, he bent down mysteriously and asked quietly:

"Daughter, did you also take this jar out of your head?"

This wing room was so empty that there was not even a mouse. Zhou Laoer was absolutely sure of this. Now, two large vats suddenly appeared.

Zhou Lingling, with her father staring at her head, was wondering how to explain the difference between consciousness and brain.

"I guess so, Dad. This is what I bought a while ago and stored it inside."

Forget it, give up struggling.

Just use your brain!

Although it was not the first time, Zhou Laoer still found it very rare.

"Your brain is quite big, and it holds a lot of things."

He remembered that the things he had looted from Old Zhou's house were also stored in his daughter's mind.

Zhou Lingling: “…Yeah!”

"Dad, Uncle Daqin is waiting, go get to work!"

"Oh fine."

Zhou Laoer picked up a large vat in one hand and was about to walk out, but he stopped just as he reached the door.

"My girl, is your brain heavy?"

Zhou Lingling twitched the corner of her mouth, "Not serious..."

outside,

Daqin was shocked when Zhou Laoer asked him to wash the two sacks of grain clean and soak them.

"Second brother, why are you soaking the grain in water?"

The weather is cooler now, and if this food is not dried and becomes moldy, it will be inedible.
