Chronicles of Ancient Life

Xinfeng County is doing well this year. After harvesting the spring wheat and paying taxes, there is still a lot of surplus. The farmers can probably have a warm winter and a prosperous New Year.But that's all for later.Now that the autumn harvest has just passed, all the old and young people in Shili Village are in a good mood, loosening their muscles and bones, and happily eating the new grain.But the Yu family in the blue brick and tile house in the west of the village had a dispute...

Yu Jiaze sat cross-legged on the futon, resting his cheeks and sighing, thinking that this is a "war" caused by an egg?But the flames of war will always be on my own head, after all, it is for money, the money my father paid for his studies.It's a pity that I'm only three years old, so I can't talk about it, and I can't change money.

The atmosphere in the Yu family hall was condensed. Sitting on an armchair, Mrs. Wang pointed at her second daughter-in-law, Mrs. Wang, and scolded, "You are so grown up that you don't know how to live frugally. How much oil did you use for this meal and two bowls of vegetables?" I bought a few eggs. I am also a mother, and I used up this property and let the children drink the northwest wind! Now the family is not the same as before, and the situation is getting worse every year, and the money is exhausted... ".

A word "ah", the sound is drawn out for a long time, and the eyes glanced at Da'er's body.Xiao Wang was being scolded at the bottom with her eyes lowered. After hearing Yin'er finished scolding, she raised her eyes to look at her mother-in-law and aunt, and replied, "Mother, I know I made a mistake, and I will definitely change it in the future. I'll clean up the dishes first, and you rest." Let's go." After finishing speaking, without waiting for my mother-in-law to say more, I picked up the bowls and chopsticks on the table and went straight to the kitchen.

The only male daughter-in-law of the Yu family, Mrs. Lin, who was sitting underneath from the beginning to the end, stood up and said with a smile, "Mother, I'm going too. The child Xiaoye should go to bed." out.Only Mrs. Wang couldn't help being depressed, and looked at Mrs. Lin's back and snorted coldly.

The drama in the main room of the Yu family happened quickly and ended quickly, as if nothing happened in this house.Lin walked out of the main room and went straight to Yu Jiaze who was sitting on the futon under the corner corridor.

Seeing his child sitting obediently, Lin Zijun was overjoyed, leaned over and hugged his son, and asked, "Xiao Ye, have you eaten just now?" Yu Jiaze nodded obediently, "Abba, I am full, how about you?" ?" Lin Zijun stroked the child's head and said with a smile, "I'm full."But secretly sighed in my heart, this is just the beginning, not the end yet.My mother-in-law has made up her mind and won't let her husband study for the imperial examination, so there is still a lot of trouble!

Yu Jiaze lay on Lin Zijun's shoulders, feeling extremely awkward, so he had to do mental training silently, saying "I'm still young, I'm still young, three-year-old Douding...".Silently hypnotized himself, and began to think about the current situation of the Yu family and the follow-up of the main room.

Let’s first clarify the current demographic composition and economic situation of Yu’s family. Yu Jiaze, a modern person in his 30s, can easily see the purpose of his grandmother Wang’s to prevent his father from continuing to study, The imperial examination made way for Wang's own youngest son.

Shili Village was originally called Shili Village, because there was a gap in a huge rock at the entrance of the village, which looked like someone's gate from a distance. Everyone said that they lived in the stone.But after a long time, it was called Shili Village.

Shili Village is a village of mixed surnames, and more than half of the families moved here after the collapse of the previous dynasty decades ago, due to wars and natural disasters, and the village was underpopulated.This Yu's family is a rare old resident, and also a well-known scholar's family in the village.

Yu Jiaze's current grandfather, Yu Jiade, was three brothers. The eldest was a good student in his early years. After Zhongju got married, he left a son who left early.Yu's family has two virtues, and after barely being a scholar, he didn't make any progress.The third child, Yu Jiayi, was not expected to study. He went on another path, but his life was not bad.

What Yu Jiaze finds most amazing is that not only women in this world can give birth to children, but also men called Geer or Qingzi by local people can also give birth to children.And the ratio of male to female is not one in one hundred.

Shili Village has a population of more than [-], but only three unmarried women, which is quite a lot, and many villages have no girls born at all.One can imagine how rare women are in this world, no one knows why this happens.Continue to talk about the situation at Yu's family.

Yu Jiade's grandfather was a Jinshi in the former dynasty and was a minor official. Unfortunately, his luck was unlucky, he was dismissed because of being framed, and he returned to Shili Village with his family, but he left after ten years.Yu Jiade's father caught up with years of wars, read a lot but did not take the imperial examination.He counted on his sons to be successful, but unfortunately the eldest son Conghui died young, and after staring at the second son as a scholar, he also died of illness soon.

The current situation of the Yu family came from this.Yu Jiade's father inherited Fuzhi and urged his sons to study.And for Yu Jiade to marry Yu Jiaze's grandfather, a brother of a down-and-out scholarly family.It's a pity that Yu Jiade has limited talent and doesn't like to study, and he doesn't like his husband very much, because he loves women more.

Yu Jiade was not good to his husband, and after his father left, he was even more indifferent to others, and he was not even very close to his two sons.When her husband left, the woman she married later came in, and a son and daughter were born, and she was even more lukewarm to the son left by her ex-husband.If it weren't for Yu Jiaze's grandpa who arranged the funeral well, and the eldest brother of the Yu family was capable and strong, I am afraid that Yu Wenli (Yu Jiaze's father) would not be able to read the books now.

Yu Jiade has five sons and one daughter. The eldest son, Yu Wenmin, is an elder brother and is married; the second son, Yu Wenli, married his husband, Lin Zijun, and one son, Yu Qiuye (Yu Jiaze); the third son, Yu Wenlian, married his wife, Xiaowang. Shi, has two sons Yu Qiuyang and Yu Qiuhe; the fourth son died young; the fifth son Yu Wenxin has not yet married; the youngest daughter Yu Wenrou.

Yu Jiade loves his daughter Wen Ruan and his clever youngest son Wen Xin the most, followed by his third son Wen Lian, and the other two sons will be placed in the back row.

After Wang entered the door, she was not bad to the first two children, there was no shortage of food and drink, and she cared a little occasionally, but she didn't care about the others, so she didn't do badly.When the children from below come out, they will be much colder, which is also natural.As time went by, Yu Wenli started to study and spend money, and his face gradually lost his temper. He just picked his nose and eyes at home, and the child was a little angry.

After the death of her fourth son, Wang's mood was a little irritable due to the pain of losing her son, and she was not as sharp as Wen Li.Just because the three children went out to visit relatives and came back, but my fourth son came back with a cold.The Wang family would not do anything to their own son Yu Wenlian, so Yu Wenli had no choice but to be the object of anger.Even Yu Wenli's husband was repeatedly made things difficult.

Wang scolded Xiao Wang for his waste, and satirized Yu Wenli for spending too much on studying. Everyone understands the meaning here.Xiao Wang's reluctance to stand out, Mingli and Lin Zijun can't get along, but it doesn't mean that he doesn't have such intentions secretly.

The Wang family's youngest son was selected as a scholar this year, and the next step is to take the Juren examination. Going to the county to study is expensive. Yu's family already has Yu Wenli who is studying in the county, and Yu Wenli failed in the examination twice.Even more confidently, Wang took the opportunity to ask Yu Wenli to come home to make way for his youngest son.This is not too much in the eyes of outsiders, as the elder brother should let the younger brother.

But in fact, where is it so simple?
