Among the children, except for the eldest child, whose family conditions were not very good when he was born, so he knew that life in the countryside was difficult, when the other children were born, life at home was very good, so they were aware of the poverty in the countryside.

The impressions of life are limited to the few days when they went back to their hometown to worship their ancestors during the New Year. Their understanding is not deep, so they are no different from those young masters from high-ranking families in Beijing. At most, An Ran has a way of educating children, so although these children do not understand

There are fireworks in the world, but my character is still very good, and I have not turned into a playboy like some people.

Originally, her character was pretty good, but she was used to being pampered and raised a little too hard. Now after staying in the country for four years, she not only has a good character, but she can also endure hardships. This makes An Ran naturally happy.

In the Li family school, due to Li Silang's guidance, in four years, twelve students in the Li family school passed the county examination, three passed the government examination and became a boy student, and one person was admitted as a scholar. This made the Li family school involuntarily

With such a great reputation, I don’t know how many people sent their children to the Li Family School just to get some advice from Li Silang. After all, if the Li Family School wasn’t a new school, there would be no students in the school who had already been selected as a scholar.

, otherwise I might let Li Silang tutor me for a few years, and I would have already passed the exam, so because I have passed the exam, some people will naturally send people to the Li family school.

Among the people who passed the exam, there are the children of Li Dalang and Li Erlang. Among them, Li Erlang's son is the smartest and passed the Tongsheng Examination. Li Dalang's family only passed the county exam, but this is already very good. Anyway, it is better than Li Silang's back then.

I am much more powerful.

Because it was thanks to Li Silang, the second bedroom of the eldest family was even more attentive to Li Silang. Although the old couple passed away, the fourth bedroom would have to live in Beijing for a long time and would have less time to come back. His son

I don't expect him to give any guidance, but if Li Silang is happy and takes his son who can study to live in Beijing for a while, it will be different. Besides, even if he doesn't take him, he can still give him guidance through letters.

It’s not just a matter of giving advice. Seeing that his son has a talent for reading, the second-fang and the second-fang thought that if he could pass the exam, he would have to take care of his uncle in Beijing, so there was no harm in getting closer to the fourth-fang.

.

By the time Li Silang left Ding You and the capital was restored, the Li family academy had turned into a large academy.

Although Li Silang left, because the academy has grown, excellent teachers have been invited to teach the children. I believe that even if Li Silang leaves, the quality of the academy's teaching will not drop too much. After all, Li Silang's ability is limited.

Even if he is here, he cannot take care of all the children.

When Li Silang returned to Beijing, it was not long after the new emperor ascended the throne. Many ministers in the court who were not from the new emperor's faction were demoted, transferred to outside, dismissed from office. Many people were cleared from various errands in Beijing, leaving many vacancies.

, Li Silang was lucky. Not only was he not affected by the earthquake, he was promoted to the sixth rank and entered the circle of middle-level officials.

As for An Ran's five sons, the first three sons have all reached the age where they can be dismissed. Because Li Silang and An Ran have taught them since they were young, all three of them passed the county and government examinations. However, the third child is still younger.

, did not pass the college examination, but the eldest and second child both passed the college examination and became scholars, taking the first step in the imperial examination.

And now, as the eldest is sixteen or seventeen years old, she will start to see his marriage.

Whether you can form a happy family in the future is also related to whether you can live a good life.

Although the good life mentioned by the original body, she felt that it mostly refers to the good life in material terms, excluding the spiritual life, but what if the sons' families are not happy and the original body cannot stand it and does not give her a good evaluation? What's more?

After all, she gave birth to the child herself, and she herself didn’t want her son to have an unhappy family, so she naturally had to be cautious when it came to marriage.

Fortunately, since she first entered Beijing, she has been paying attention to the situation of the little girls who are about the same age as her sons, and now she has a good idea of ​​the marriage.

She doesn't have any requirements for her daughter-in-law. As long as she has a good character and is old enough to have a few sons, that's it. As for her family background, it's enough to be similar to her own. It doesn't matter if she's a little bit different. The key is to be a good person, so even if she has a few sons, it doesn't matter.

, it’s okay, after all, as long as the couple can be happy in the future, it will be fine. She has never thought that her family’s life depends on her daughter-in-law’s natal family. Anyway, with her here, the life of the Li family will not be bad.

Afterwards, An Ran chose the daughter-in-law for her eldest son, and the eldest son was indeed satisfied. However, because An Ran never cared much about her daughter-in-law's affairs, nor did she want to establish authority in front of her daughter-in-law like other mothers-in-law in Beijing.

, the water in the well does not offend the river, so the eldest daughter-in-law is also very satisfied with An Ran, her mother-in-law. Of course, she is even more satisfied with her husband who does not take concubines. The family is really living a good life.

The next few sons, An Ran, followed suit, and soon the family became prosperous.

Because there were too many people, the previous Sanjin House was a little unlivable, so An Ran bought a big house again. Fortunately, the family had more money at this time, and the land rent plus Li Silang's salary allowed him to buy a big house.

It’s still not a problem.

As for the previous house, An Ran sold it and replaced it with land.

The houses of this era are not like modern concrete buildings. They are made of bricks and tiles. If no one lives in them, they will be easily damaged. An Ran does not want to take the trouble of maintaining the house from time to time, and does not want to rent it out because of the high rent in this era.

, there will definitely not be much land to rent. After all, this house is worth one thousand taels, which can be exchanged for at least one hundred acres of land. At that time, one hundred taels of land per year will be available for rent, but if the house is rented out, it will not be possible for one year.

You can get one hundred taels of land to rent, and you have to maintain it from time to time, which is very troublesome, so it is better to switch to fields.

The life of the fourth house is getting better and better. This news was passed back to the son of the second house of the second house who occasionally came here to stay for a while and was good at school, but it made Li Sanlang and his wife very angry.

The children from the second and third bedrooms all did well in the exams, but none of the third and third bedroom children passed the exam. Li Sanlang and his wife felt that this must be because the fourth child had a bad relationship with them and had a personal grudge against them, so he deliberately did not teach their children well, so their children were

He didn’t pass the exam. Otherwise, after four years of teaching, so many children in the village had passed the exam, but his child didn’t. He is so smart, and his child is naturally smart too. There is no way he could not pass the exam.
p>

Since there is nothing wrong with his own children, it is natural that Li Silang is not good to their children.

When I think about it like this, the more I think about it, the more angry I get.

But... the capital is far away from Dongfeng Village, and Li Sanlang and his wife are reluctant to spend the money to go to Beijing to scold Li Silang, so although they are angry, they can't do anything to Li Silang, even if they want to spread unpleasant words in the village and slander Li Silang.

Si Lang's reputation cannot be improved - now Dongfeng Village and even the entire Xihe Town are Li Si Lang's "running dogs" (as Li San Lang feels). If he dares to speak out about Li Si Lang's fault, he is afraid of ruining Li Si Lang's reputation.

People, even people from Dongfeng Village, would come forward and scold him. He had been warned several times by the Li family, saying that if he dared to talk nonsense again, he would be kicked out, so let alone go to Beijing to scold Li Silang.
