Chapter 12

On this day, Lao Xu's family was full of laughter and harmony.

Because Mr. Xu came back with money and food, Mrs. Xu allowed Mr. Xu to drink two cups of old wine for the first time, but he was so beautiful that the smile on his face didn't go away.

Even if the eldest son and the second son took the opportunity to drink his half jar of old wine, there was nothing to be reluctant about.

After the family had lunch, Mr. Xu hummed a little song and went out to find someone to chat with.

Xu old, Xu old two pull Xu old three together to go out, and go to the river fishing.

The three daughters-in-law of Lao Xu's family are busy renovating white flour steamed buns, which are to be taken to the city by Lao Xu.

Although Xu Laosan studied in the county school, he had to solve the problem of eating by himself. If it's too hot, just bring him flour and millet into the city. If it's cooler, make the steamed bun ready for him to take away. At that time, as long as you heat it on the stove, you can eat it.

In this way, a lot of firewood can be saved.

Reading in the city, whatever it is, costs money.

The life of Lao Xu's family is not bad, but it is definitely not a family that can spend money freely.

……

By the river, three brothers of the Xu family lined up.

A man with a hat, holding a fishing rod, sitting on the big Bluestone by the river.

Although Xu Laosan is a scholar, his strength is really good.

This is the difference between the farming and reading house and the pure scholarly family.

Although the literate children will also pay attention to let the family children polish the body, but in the end it is a little less strength.

In this era, it's really useless to be able to read simply.

Because after going to the examination room, the whole examination process is totally closed. And the test time or three days, or five days, candidates are self food.

If the physical fitness is not enough, even adhere to all the examinations are not necessarily able to do.

"Big brother, second brother, you two really caught that fish here?"

After sitting on the stone for half an hour, there was no movement at all. Xu Laosan doubted whether he was fooled by the elder brother and the second brother again.

Xu Laoer gave Xu Laosan a white look and said, "it's only a long time. If you want to catch big fish, you have to be patient!"

"The second one is right!"

Mr. Xu sat there motionless without turning his head.

Xu Laosan, with a smile, said, "brother, second brother, don't cheat me!"

"It's not easy for me to come back from half a day's leave. I'll lose money if I'm blind here for half a day!"

Xu Laosan always felt that he might have been fooled by his two brothers.

In his opinion, it's better to go home to find his daughter-in-law than to waste time here.

He has only come back a few times this month. Isn't she fragrant with his fragrant daughter-in-law?

"Don't worry, no one can cheat you!"

Xu elder brother calmly waved his hand, "how many times have you cheated in these years?"

"You'll have to count it!"

Three times, Xu said, "when I was six years old, you said you would take me to buy sugar. As a result, you bought sugar with the lucky money that my mother gave me. You ate all of them, but you didn't leave one for me!"

"When I was seven years old, you said you would take me to pick grapes. As a result, you ate the grapes and I was caught by Uncle Yue! "

"Seven and a half years old..."

"Stop, stop, stop!"

Old Xu glared at old Xu. "It's all about old sesame and rotten millet. Besides, later, didn't I make it up to you?"

"Brother, did you make it up?"

"That's my mother's compensation!"

Xu Laosan was angry.

Old Xu gave this stupid brother a white look and said, "if I don't do that, do you think my mother will buy those delicious ones?"
