Rise From the Humble

Chapter 157 Unlucky

After Zhu Ping'an returned home, he mentioned his grandfather's idea, but his mother, Mrs. Chen, was the first to agree, and she agreed very much. Mother agrees, but Zhu's father naturally has no objection.

Eldest brother Zhu Pingchuan also agreed with both hands. Since the news of his younger brother's admission to the scholar reached Juan'er's house, the future father-in-law looked at him many times more pleasing to the eye. In the past, he always stared at him for fear that he would be alone with Juan'er. Brother After being admitted as a scholar, I stayed with Juan'er, and my father-in-law turned a blind eye.

The dinner was extraordinarily sumptuous, and my mother, Mrs. Chen, was afraid that Zhu Ping'an would be hungry, so she put all the delicious food into Zhu Ping's bowl. As long as I eat a little slower, my mother Chen will ask, why doesn't my son eat it, is it because my mother's cooking is not delicious. His mother, Mrs. Chen, was like this, so Zhu Ping'an could only shake off his cheeks and eat it all. Chen Shi, the mother who had eaten, narrowed her eyes in satisfaction.

The consequence of this is that when Zhu Pingan sleeps at night, he can only lie on his back, and other postures cannot hold the full maternal love.

At night, Zhu Pingan was lying on the bed, looking at the moonlight outside the window. The moonlight was as dim as a fairy wearing a blue wedding dress. The gentle evening wind brought in the unique earth fragrance of the village. The toad croaked, and occasionally there were a few dog barks. Watching, smelling, listening, slowly, Zhu Pingan dozed off unconsciously lying on the bed, and fell into a sweet dreamland.

Country mornings are like no other.

The big roosters at the head of each family crowed and flew up the low wall, standing on the wall and competing to announce the dawn, one by one, not to be outdone, and their voices, slowly the village woke up from sleep, and people gradually Get up one after another and start your day.

The main room of the Zhu family opened the door, and his mother, Mrs. Chen, came out of the room with a washbasin. As soon as she opened the door, Mrs. Chen saw Zhu Pingan sitting by the well in the courtyard practicing calligraphy.

"Why did you pass the exam as a scholar? Why did you get up so early? I just went home and didn't have a good rest." Mother Chen looked at Zhu Pingan who was dipping in the well water near the stone and practicing calligraphy. I still don't know when my second son got up, so I can't help feeling distressed.

"I'm used to it, mother." Zhu Ping raised his head and said with a silly smile.

"Aren't all habits formed? You can't get up so early tomorrow." Chen's heart ached, and she wanted her son to sleep for a while. Other people's children can't scream no matter what, she This son is good, he never asked himself to wake up, and every time he got up earlier than himself.

"Yes. Good mother." Zhu Pingan nodded in agreement.

"Just fool your mother, you promise to be good every time, but every time you get up early." Chen blamed.

"Second brother is hardworking."

Father Zhu got up too, and walked out of the room carrying Ye Xiang. Hearing Chen's reproach, he couldn't help curling his lips.

What a great thing for a loving mother to be so hardworking.

Zhu's father thought very simply, men should work harder and sweat more. It's useless to be spoiled.

"No matter how hard you work, your body doesn't matter." Upon hearing this, Mrs. Chen glared at Father Zhu.

Zhu's father was stared at by Chen Shi, so he didn't dare to say anything, but only expressed his support for Zhu Ping'an with his eyes.

One after another, the entire Xiahe Village got up, and the smoke from the kitchen was rising. Going to the field, visiting and chatting, the day's life begins again.

While Zhu Pingan's family was having breakfast. Grandfather came to the door, and came to discuss with Zhu's father about holding a water banquet. It was very positive, and the final time was set in three days. In Daming. Perhaps this is still the case in rural areas today. If you are admitted to a good university, the whole village will have a lively celebration. What's more, with his grandfather being so active and his mother, Mrs. Chen being so supportive, Zhu Ping'an was arranged by his elders.

After breakfast, Zhu Ping'an left the house with his schoolbag slung across his shoulders and headed for Shanghe Village. I am admitted to the scholar to thank my mentor for his teaching, so I should tell my mentor about the water banquet at home and invite my mentor to go. In addition, I have to thank the rich man Li's family in Shanghe Village. Thanks to the rich man Li's family's collection of books, I have sufficient knowledge reserves in the imperial examination, and the yellow flower question last time was also thanks to that black belly Young girl, even though she also unintentionally inserted Liu Liu Chengyin.

After arriving at Shanghe Village, Zhu Ping'an went to the teacher's house first. The teacher's house is usually open at night, but today it closed the door, which is a bit strange. I pushed it, but it couldn't move, I looked down and saw a piece of paper, which must have been pasted on the door, but it fell to the ground due to the wind and sun. Zhu Pingan picked it up and wrote four words on it, going out to visit friends. This paper is most likely reserved for myself. It seems that the teacher's wife also went together, otherwise it would be impossible for there to be no one. I didn't expect the teacher to be quite romantic.

Since the teacher is not here, let's go to Li's house and borrow another book to read.

Li's house is not far from the mentor's house, the tall mansion has a large courtyard, and the yard seems to have just been painted, and it looks strange.

Zhu Ping stepped forward and knocked on the door between the two stone lions.

boom boom boom

After knocking twice, I heard Uncle Li's familiar impatient voice again.

Soon, the door opened, and Uncle Li poked his head out of it impatiently.

"Oh, it turned out that Master Zhu is here, fast forward, no, no, when I open the door, how can Master Zhu come in?" The concierge, Uncle Li, would be so courteous as a dog's leg. What impatience, the face is full of enthusiasm.

"Uncle Li, don't call me that, your life will be shortened, I just walk in through the door." Zhu Pingan smiled wryly.

"How could it be? Mr. Zhu is a person who is blessed by the stars and has a long life. How can we go through the door? Mr. Zhu is a talented master, how can he go through the door." The uncle concierge shook his head, and then opened the door in a hurry , please come in Zhu Pingan.

The concierge, Uncle Li, is really playing with the wind, but Zhu Ping'an's enthusiasm made Zhu Pingan a little dumbfounded.

"Uncle Li, please don't call me Master Zhu." Zhu Ping'an entered the gate, turned around and discussed with the concierge Uncle Li in a serious manner, "I sound weird, so you can call me as you usually do.

"Master Zhu just get used to it. Scholars are called masters." Uncle Li, the concierge, did not have the usual negligent attitude, not to mention how good he is.

Uh, Zhu Ping'an was a little speechless. With the attitude of Uncle Li, the gatekeeper, I couldn't make him change his words in the short term.

"Is Mr. Li at home? Thanks to Mr. Li's generous care and allowing me to borrow books, Ping'an is proud to have passed the college examination. Ping'an is very grateful. Three days later, there will be a water banquet at home, and I hope to invite Mr. Li to show respect."

Zhu Pingan paused, and then explained his purpose.

The concierge, Uncle Li, shook his head slightly, "My master has not come back yet."

Forget it then.

Zhu Pingan thanked the concierge, Uncle Li, and walked to the study with ease, ready to borrow books.
