Chapter 23 Zhu Da Fudge
Wang Zhu learned very seriously. In a short while, he could point one by one by one by one and stutter out the first ten sentences of the Three Character Classic. Some words with slightly complex configurations were remembered by Zhu Xiu several times.
Zhu Xiu corrected her posture and technique of holding the pen, and let her lean on the table, starting to describe one by one.
Seeing the little girl holding her pen and writing hard and hard, Zhu Xiu smiled with a happier smile, slightly satisfied her vanity as a teacher.
Zhu Xiu spread out his small notebook "Happy Treasure Mirror" with him, carefully recalled the conversation with Ge Lide, and added a few strokes to the part of his life plan - the near-term goal.
"The previous three were admitted to Zhushan County School and helped Zhou Jincai get rid of the Tao family with the help of Ge."
Zhu Xiu thought silently that the Ge family line is very useful and needs to be firmly grasped. One of the methods is to continue to gain Ge Lide's favor.
A good score as a student in Shuikou Township School can give Ge a lot of glory.
In the future, he will be considered a student taught by the Ge family. County Magistrate Ge Jiang has to cover him no matter how much he wants.
After entering the county school and getting through until the age of nineteen, then taking the state school, and then working for another ten or eight years, the Tang Dynasty should have returned to normal and you can consider making efforts in the career path.
Zhu Xiu was full of small calculations. After working in business for a few years, the old Zhu family should have no worries about food and clothing, and had a house and land. If they were to be in charge of their bodies, they would really be able to be free and free in the world...
After wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, he glanced at Wang Zhu who had no idea what to do and practiced hard. Zhu Xiu couldn't help but laugh. Maybe he had a baby at that time, but he just didn't know who this baby's mother was...
As for whether to take the county school entrance exam, Zhu Xiu was still a little worried before, but after listening to Liu Da’s lecture and learning about the county school entrance exam, Zhu Xiu put his heart back in his stomach.
I am afraid no one in this world can surpass him in any basic exam content. Even the state school seems to have tried essays and some simple questions based on the county school recruitment.
What Zhu Xiu was really not sure about was the two items of the township tribute selection and the final provincial examination. These two items were real skills. In addition to posting scriptures and ink meanings, countermeasures and essays were the two keys that determine the success or failure of the imperial examination.
Zhu Xiu knew that with his own level, it was impossible to compare these two items with other candidates. How to deal with it at that time is really a matter that needs careful planning and is a headache!
Fortunately, life is still far away from these two steps and there is still enough time to calculate, so Zhu Xiu threw two difficult problems behind him as if he was very broad.
After hiding the small notebook, Zhu Xiu bit the pen and thought of another thing.
"Wang Zhu, my second and third sisters are coming back soon. I want to give them a gift. What do you think you should give?"
Wang Zhu raised her head, and there was no idea that a little black ink was applied to her cheeks. Zhu Xiu's eyes turned to one side, pretending not to know.
"I don't know what Sister Hui Niang likes, but Sister Yanyan likes reading and dancing. You should know this?" Wang Zhu looked at him strangely.
"Haha, I can't remember it for a while. Okay, it's okay, you can continue writing." Zhu Xiu laughed at him.
Wang Zhu didn't think about it either, but curled his lips and continued to concentrate on writing, while writing in a low voice. Zhu Xiu was ashamed of seriousness.
"The third sister Zhu Yanyan likes Shule, I think she is a literary young woman..."
Zhu Xiu thought to himself that he had no choice but to give her a good and interesting book.
It just so happened that Fang Cuilan was clamoring to ask Zhu Xiu to tell her stories in the past two days. "The Legend of Liangshan Heroes" has been completed for a while. Fang Cuilan urgently needs a new story to satisfy her curiosity pleasure and pass the time by the way.
Zhu Xiu searched in his head for a while, and soon had an idea, and picked up his pen to write a new title: "Single and Strange Records", the first article: White Snake.
~~
In the Hunter's Lodge, Zhu Xiu began a happy self-study life.
He writes books every day, teaches Wang Zhu to recognize words, lie on the grass without shit, basks in the sun, takes off his shoes and socks and goes to the stream to catch fish and shrimps, and lives a comfortable and comfortable life.
The Hunter's Hunter also changed from two to three, and the mighty young man Wang Ang was also pulled over by Wang Zhu to receive the influence of culture together.
It didn't matter whether to teach one or two Zhu Xiu, but Wang Ang always kept an angry face, as if he didn't like him. Zhu Xiu felt disgusted and didn't dare to tease Wang Zhu anymore, for fear of annoying her brother one day, and dragging him into the rarely-people forest...
However, after a few days of getting along, Wang Ang had no other problems except for his angry face and being a silly person who didn't like to talk. Zhu Xiu gradually felt relieved.
Since Wang Ang arrived, the original function of the Hunter's House was truly utilized. Wang Ang followed his father Wang Luwu to hunt a lot. He has great ability and is very accurate in archery skills. He can bring back wild pheasants, hares, birds, etc. from time to time. The food of the three people has been greatly improved.
On the agreed day, Zhu Xiu returned to the school and received the first separate test from Ge Lide and Liu Da.
Needless to say, Mr. Ge and Mr. Liu were both quite satisfied.
Zhu Xiu had a meal in the school, and then he was shameless and took some paper, pen and ink, and then he slipped back to the Hunter's House.
By the end of March, the manuscripts of "White Snake" had been completed. Zhu Xiu used later punctuation marks to make sentences, and introduced them at the beginning of the article.
Tomorrow is the day when the second and third sisters go home. Zhu Xiu packs up early and plans to go to the Shuikou Village Market with more than 20 cents saved in his hand to visit the Shuikou Village Market, buy some fresh ingredients, and prepare to show his cooking skills again tomorrow to welcome the two sisters.
When I passed by the village school, I accidentally met Zhou Jincai who was squatting here.
"Oh Uncle Zhou, I haven't seen you for a long time. I thought you got my idea and ran away!" Zhu Xiu quipped with a smile.
"Zhu Xiaolang? Are you... being expelled from the school?" Zhou Jincai asked blankly when he saw Zhu Xiu actually wandering outside the school.
Zhu Xiu rolled his eyes, explained briefly, and said, "The story of the school is a long story. Uncle Zhou, come to find me today, but is there any important matter?"
Zhou Jincai was excited and happily pulled Zhu Xiu into the donkey cart, and said excitedly: "I'm here to tell you, the new style of training workshop has been opened, the first batch of fine white hemp was successfully produced, and our business is on the right track!"
Zhu Xiu was not surprised. The method he taught was definitely fine. Zhou Jincai disappeared for half a month. If he could not build a hemp-tung workshop, he would consider changing his partner.
"Uncle Zhou, last time I forgot to say that the hemp planted in Fangzhou and even the Central Plains is rougher and has a heavier texture. You can harvest more ramie planted in Jiangbei and south of the Yangtze River. In this way, the hemp yarn produced by twisting is thinner and lighter, and it is also stronger, and the selling price can be increased a little."
"Also, in the craftsmanship of the styling workshop, you can divide the steps and teach different employees, each of whom is responsible for one step, which can improve productivity."
Zhou Jincai listened attentively, not daring to interrupt at all, and remembered Zhu Xiu's words in his heart.
After the new twisting practice was successfully tested, he understood that Zhu Xiaolang had made great progress in his knowledge after he became aware of it. Everything he said seriously must have a reason and must remember it firmly.
Zhou Jincai asked several details and got a satisfactory answer. He was satisfied and said: "Every time he talked to Zhu Xiaolang, Zhou benefited a lot. What did Saint Kong say? What high and what firm?"
Zhu Xiu said with a funny look: "'The higher you look up, the stronger you drill,' this sentence is not what the saint said, but what his disciple Yan Yuan said. Uncle Zhou praised me with the words of re-praising the saint, but he really dared not take it."
Zhou Jincai failed to show off his knowledge, so he was not embarrassed. He laughed and blew, and praised him again: "Zhu Xiaolang is good at learning!"
Nowadays, the trend of learning literature is becoming more and more popular. Anyone who relies on his own status is proud of his art. Even small rural merchants like Zhou Jincai are not immune to the vulgarity.
A businessman who doesn't want to be a scholar is not a good landlord.
"By the way, Uncle Zhou, I have money on him. I will give me some first." Zhu Xiu thought that he only had more than 20 cents and was too short of buying ingredients, so he looked Zhou Jincai up and down.
Zhou Jincai suddenly became alert and moved his body aside, as if he wanted to block something, and shook his head hard: "I didn't bring it! I didn't have money! I've invested all the money in the workshop!"
Zhu Xiu's eyes were sharp-eyed and saw a small iron box in the corner of the carriage. He pointed his hand and laughed: "What is there? Open it and take a look?"
Zhou Jincai quickly pressed the small iron box with both hands, his beard trembled, and said with a bitter face: "Zhu Xiaolang, it's not time to distribute dividends yet!"
Zhu Xiu glared at the stingy guy and said angrily: "If you don't ask for more from you, just give me the money you always have. I will deduct it from my dividends in the future."
Zhou Jincai swallowed his saliva and quickly said, "Then I'll just take Yishen! I'll keep your account and deduct it when you distribute dividends!"
Zhou Jincai quickly opened the small iron box, took a string of copper coins and handed it to Zhu Xiu.
Zhu Xiu glanced at him and said that there were still seven or eight jin of coins in the iron box.
Zhou Jincai blocked Zhu Xiu's vision and sighed, "It's just that little capital, business is hard to do~~"
Zhu Xiu put the money into the bookstore, glanced at him, and smiled and said, "Uncle Zhou, do it well. Mr. Ge has agreed. After I was admitted to the county school, he will come forward to get out of the household registration for you. Soon, you will no longer be the son-in-law of the Tao family, but a dignified head of the Zhou family."
Zhou Jincai was stunned and his mouth trembled, "Really...really?!"
"Then there is still a falsehood? Mr. Ge personally agreed to me! If you don't believe me, go and ask!"
Zhou Jincai's nose was sore and he choked up, "If this matter can be done, Zhu Xiaolang will be Zhou's reborn parents..."
Zhu Xiu waved his hand and smiled, "Don't have you, I have to die young!"
Zhou Jincai was choked and couldn't speak. He raised his cuffs to wipe the corners of his eyes and said sadly: "Anyway, Zhou has to rely on Zhu Xiaolang for the rest of his life."
Zhu Xiu patted his shoulder and said earnestly: "Follow me well and I will never treat you badly. Leaving a household registration is just the first step, and there will be a lot of money waiting for us to pay in the future!"
