Chapter 28 I’m afraid it will become yesterday’s flower.

Chapter 28 I’m afraid it will become a thing of the past

 Lao Gao thought so too, and cursed Lao Er and his family for not doing human affairs.

She originally had a good idea, just keep the money with her second wife, and when the family needs money, she can just let them take it out...

Who knew that the second bedroom would be completely spent!

 “Stop shouting!” Lao Gao shouted impatiently.

Gao Yuehong shrank her head and closed her mouth.

"I am the head of this family. I don't believe that the second wife can pass me by and wait until the fifth child is admitted as a scholar..." Lao Gao said with a gloomy expression.

Before she finished speaking, the voices of Mr. Shen and Shen Guangyao rang out, and she immediately stopped talking.

Gao Yuehong saw the old man like a mouse meeting a cat. She said hello hastily and rubbed the soles of her feet with oil.

Mr. Shen frowned.

I want the old wife to take more care of the fourth daughter-in-law and stop staring at the boss and the others.

 Thinking of Lao Gao's extreme temper, he could only sigh helplessly.

Mrs. Gao saw her favorite Yao'er and said with a smile: "Lao Wu is here, just in time. Mom has made you a new cotton coat. You try it on first. If there is anything wrong with it, I will change it for you."

Shen Guangyao glanced at the cotton clothes put aside and looked down upon them.

If he wears this kind of bulky cotton clothes to college, his classmates will laugh to death.

I thought so in my heart, and said with emotion: "Thank you for your hard work, mother. My son still has clothes, but mother, you should also make one for yourself. It's because my son has no ability and has not been admitted as a scholar for a long time..."

"Who said my son has no ability?" Lao Gao retorted, "It's clear that luck has not come to him. It doesn't matter if he is a scholar. Sooner or later, my son will win."

Having raised a loser in the family, it is understandable that Lao Wu repeatedly failed the exam.

Mr. Shen, a talented scholar in his forties, twitched his lips and said, "..."

 What is a scholar?

 It’s nothing, it’s just that it’s very difficult for most people to pass the exam.

"That's it." Mr. Shen interrupted his wife, looked at Shen Guangyao and said, "Old Wu, hurry up and pack your things. It's almost time."

Both of them only have two days off and have to rush back to the county tonight.

 In fact, there is nothing to pack, just a few clothes and some side dishes that can be stored for food.

 The people in the room were packing their things when Shen Kun came over.

“Sir, fifth uncle, my mother asked me to drive you to the county.”

Mr. Shen was very pleased, "You are thoughtful."

 Old Mrs. Gao snorted coldly.

Honestly, if you really mean it, why don't you put the horse in the backyard?

 The second wife has a lot on her mind.

Shen Kun didn't think too much about it. His parents said that no matter what you do, just do it worthy of your own heart.

Mr. Shen and Shen Guangyao got on the carriage, both of them feeling a little complicated.

It’s strange that rich people all want to buy a carriage. It’s really comfortable and fast.

Shen Guangyao lowered his eyebrows and his mind went to the second-story bed he saw in the second room.

 Last night, he imitated the picture.

 They look very similar.

 It's more like the dimensions. He doesn't understand carpentry at all and can't mark it out even if he wants to.

Arrived at the academy, Shen Guangyao was worried about something and left without saying hello to Shen Kun.

A young man dressed as a student saw him face to face and said with a smile: "Brother Shen came very early today."

Shen Guangyao cupped his hands and said, "Brother Wang."

Looking at this man, he remembered that someone said that the Wang family seemed to run a carpenter's shop, and his thoughts started to change.

Shen Guangyao has always cherished feathers, so naturally he would not do anything to tarnish his reputation in the academy.

He said: "Brother Wang, I am ashamed to say that I am a little confused by the lessons set by Mr. Qian. I don't know..."

Wang Shiyuan is a poor student, and his homework is usually done by others.

 Hearing that someone actually wanted to ask me for help, I felt happy and confident.

“Brother Shen, do you want to ask me for advice? That’s okay. Let’s go to your dormitory.”

 Shen Guangyao: “…”

 After a while, when he arrived at the student dormitory, Shen Guangyao quickly paid the price for the reason he found casually.

Wang Shiyuan actually took it seriously.

 Once I started talking, I didn’t stop for a long time. From political theory to arithmetic, from arithmetic to calligraphy...

Shen Guangyao's face was numb when he heard it, and he was confused and didn't know where he was.

until…

“Brother Shen, what is this?” Wang Shiyuan turned over the drawing he drew last night.

Shen Guangyao's eyes flashed with light and he straightened up again.

 He coughed lightly and said, "My foolish brother drew this casually."

 Speaking, he also gave an explanation.

“The academy will recruit more students in the spring of next year. I see that there are not enough dormitories in the academy, so I am thinking about how to make rational use of the limited rooms... which makes Brother Wang laugh.”

 Seemingly embarrassed, Shen Guangyao lowered his head, the tips of his ears reddish.

Wang Shiyuan's eyes flashed and he said with a smile: "What a joke, Brother Shen is also thinking about the academy. This is a good thing."

By now, he finally knew.

This drawing is the key to this person finding himself.

It's a pity that he took Shen Guangyao's excuse seriously. He was being treated as a fool.

 A little annoyed after all, Wang Shiyuan just looked at the drawing and did not offer to buy it.

Shen Guangyao felt secretly resentful when he saw that this man didn't answer the question as he expected.

“I heard that Brother Wang’s family owns a carpenter’s shop, so I’ll give you these drawings.”

Wang Shiyuan saw that he had sacrificed his face and spoke proactively. He stopped asking for Qiao and said, "Brother Shen worked hard to draw the drawings. How can I be so shameless? So be it, I'll pay for it."

After finishing speaking, he took out two pieces of broken silver and handed them over.

 One shot is worth ten taels.

Shen Guangyao only had one tael of silver on him. When he saw the silver on the table, his eyes flashed brightly.

Afraid of losing his composure, he hurriedly lowered his eyebrows.

He said righteously: "No need, I am not drawing pictures to make money. Brother Wang will let people make the bed as soon as possible, and I will be satisfied."

“Brother Shen is a good example of integrity for our generation.” Wang Shiyuan looked admiring.

Then he said more righteously than he did: "A gentleman may do something or not do something. If you don't accept the hard work fee, I will just pretend that I have never seen this drawing."

 Shen Guangyao looked embarrassed.

 Finally, looking at the persistence of his classmates, he sighed.

 “Well then, I will accept it shamelessly, my foolish brother.”

Wang Shiyuan smiled, cupped his hands and said, "Brother Shen is busy first, I'll take my leave first."

 After walking out, he took out the drawing and raised the corners of his mouth slightly.

 Having a bunk bed is a way to make a fortune.

 If everything goes well, the Wang family will be the best in the entire county.

 As for the Luo family? I'm afraid that any old brand will become a thing of the past.

 Tsk!

Thinking of this, Wang Shiyuan threw away his fan and walked away with a smile.

Shen Guangyao suddenly had ten taels. He felt refreshed and began to plan how to use the money.

● I went to the bookstore earlier and took a fancy to the inkstone that costs 2 taels. You can buy it first.

There is also paper. The paper he is using now is too old and he has to buy some good ones. The poor quality of the paper will affect the beauty of his writing.

 …

  Shen family.

 Shen Jie was anxious for a day and finally got the good news.

His face turned red with excitement, "Thank you, Sister Nian. I will study hard. Whatever you want to fight in the future, I will take care of it."

 Shen Jie beat his chest loudly.

Shen Nian saw the seriousness in his words and said with a smile: "Brother Jie, study hard. If something doesn't go your way, don't hold it in. In the worst case, we'll sell another blueprint."

 Those present laughed.
