Chapter 292 From the farmer to the prime minister 20
"Er Hai, you're back? How about that, how much money did the ginseng sell for? Are there twenty-five taels?
"Yeah Erhai, tell me, how much money did that ginseng sell for. 99
66………………3⁹
Chen Erhai drove the donkey cart and was seen by some villagers as soon as he entered the village.
Immediately, these villagers gathered around curiously.
They all knew that Chen Erhai went to town this time to sell ginseng.
As for why they brought Chen Nuo, they didn't know.
"Well, it's exactly twenty-five taels of silver.
After Chen Erhai smiled honestly, he chose to hide it.
Most of the villagers in the village are good, but there are inevitably bad villagers.
"Look, I said that I would definitely sell it for twenty-five taels of silver. How about it? It really sold so much silver, right?"
"Er Hai, if you have money, your life will be better.""
"Take good care of Chen Nuo's body, wait a few years and tell him a daughter-in-law, and you will be a grandfather for the rest of your child's life."
"Tsk, twenty-five taels of silver, the old man Chen's family will regret it to death. If this is a day's delay, then the twenty-five taels of silver will be theirs."
"Deserving it, let that family be eccentric!!
The villagers opened their mouths one after another, and then the villagers who had daughters at home were moved.
"Er Hai, how old is your Chen Nuo when you tell me how my girl is? You know my girl, she is a good worker.
The villager opened his mouth, but as soon as he finished speaking, other villagers who had daughters at home also spoke.
"My girl is not bad, say my girl."
"And my girl."
Several villagers blushed and had thick necks. In the past, although they sympathized with Chen Nuo, they would never have married their girl to Chen Nuo.
Because Chen Nuo can no longer do heavy work, what will he eat and drink after he gets married?
But now that there are twenty-five taels of silver, it will be different.
Even if nothing is done, it can take more than ten years.
"It doesn't matter what I said, but Nuo'er made up his own mind, and Nuo'er has not been able to get married in the past few years, he is going to the town school to study.
Chen Erhai shook his head and said something.
"What? Chen Nuo is going to go to school in town? 99
"Er Hai, I have to persuade you, studying the imperial examination is not something that farmers like us can think of.
"Yeah Erhai, you'd better keep the money for selling ginseng and marry Chen Nuo."
Listening to Chen Erhai's words, the villagers subconsciously prepared to advise.
In the same sentence, they also know that the imperial examinations are good, but they spend too much money and can't bear it at all.
"It's alright, my son doesn't need money to study, and the gentleman in the town school said that my son is very talented in studying, and he wants to take my son as a student, and exempt tuition and other fees.
Speaking of this, Chen Erhai became proud.
But he didn't say it. Wang Cheng said that Chen Nuo has a talent that he can't forget, and he can be admitted to the jinshi.
Because until now, Chen Erhai still can't believe it in his heart.
It's not that he doesn't believe in his son, it's just that he feels that Jinshi is far away from him.
"No money to study??"
"Is this true??
"Sir said that Chen Nuo is talented in reading, so he doesn't want money??
The surrounding villagers were all shocked.
Studying the imperial examinations costs too much money.
But now, Chen Nuo doesn't need money to study??
This……
Subconsciously, many villagers were skeptical.
"Of course it's true!!" Seeing that everyone didn't believe it, Chen Erhai suddenly became anxious.
Seeing this, the villagers believed it.
Because this kind of thing can't be faked.
Can……
There is no money to study, so how good is Chen Nuo's reading talent, so he can be exempted from these fees.
The surrounding villagers turned their thoughts in their hearts, and then looked at Chen Nuo with a change.
At present, everyone respects the readers very much, and there is a kind of admiration from the heart.
And Chen Nuo has a talent for reading.
"If you look at it this way, it's actually Chen Nuo's family who delayed Chen Nuo!"`⁹⁹
"No, even the teachers of the school said that Chen Nuo is gifted in reading, and he has waived the cost of reading, which shows that he is really gifted."5
"Chen Yan, the eldest of Chen Laohan's family, said every day that he could be admitted to Juren, but he never saw Mr. Xuetang exempt him from his study fees.
"This old man Chen's family is too unreasonable."
Thinking of Chen Nuo's talent in reading, but planting for so many years, immediately made many villagers change their faces.
"I won't tell you, I'll go back first, the child is still waiting at home. 35
Chen Erhai didn't say anything. After waving to the villagers, he drove the donkey cart back home.
In the yard, after hearing the movement of the donkey cart, Mr. Liu walked out.
"Daughter-in-law." Chen Erhai stepped forward with a smile, ready to speak to Liu.
But Liu Shi didn't even look at him, and went directly to Chen Nuo's side.
"Son, are you tired from going to town this time? Has your father taken good care of you? Is this quilt comfortable to sit on?"
Liu Shi looked at Chen Nuo with a concerned look on his face.
Aside, Chen Erhai looked helpless.
"I took good care of my son, you can rest assured." Chen Erhai said.
How could he not take good care of his son.
"Go, I didn't ask you." After glaring at Chen Erhai, Liu Shi continued to look at Chen Nuo.
"Father took good care of me, this quilt is also very comfortable to sit on, and I am in good health now, so mother can rest assured."5
Chen Nuo said with a smile.
Then Liu Shi was relieved.
"Well, I'll just say take good care of my son, don't worry about it." Chen Erhai said beside him.
"Go ahead and send the donkey cart back later." Mrs. Liu asked Chen Erhai to tie the donkey cart to a nearby tree before pulling Chen Nuo into the yard.
Then, I asked Chen Erhai how much ginseng was sold for.
When he heard that the three ginseng plants were sold for a total of 90 taels of silver, Liu's face became excited.
This is ninety taels of silver.
And there are nineteen ginseng plants at home.
"That's great." Liu's face was excited and happy.
Chen Erhai smiled when he saw it.
"There is another great thing, it is more gratifying than selling ginseng for silver.
Chen Erhai said.
"What's so good? My son can go to school??" Listening to Chen Erhai's words, Liu Shi was stunned for a moment, and then he reacted.
"More than that, let me tell you..."
Chen Erhai didn't sell anything, and directly told Wang Cheng that Chen Nuo had a talent for reading and was able to pass the imperial examination as a jinshi.
There are also things like tuition waivers.
When all this was said, Liu Shi was stunned in place.
After a long while, she said in disbelief.
"Master, are you bluffing me?"
Liu Shi looked at Chen Erhai in disbelief, a little disbelieving.
Talented in reading, can you pass the jinshi entrance exam?
Jinshi is bigger than Juren!
"How dare I bluff you, this is true, if you don't believe me, ask our son." Chen Erhai directly pulled Chen Nuo over.
"Son, is this true?" Liu Shi looked at Chen Nuo nervously and expectantly.
"It's true." Chen Nuo nodded.
"..." Liu shi didn't speak anymore, because his heart was in a trance.
How can my son have such a talent for reading??
After thinking about it, Liu Shi suddenly raised his hand and pinched Chen Erhai's arm hard.
"Hey... Daughter-in-law, what are you pinching me for??
Chen Erhai was pinched and grinned.
Seeing this, Liu's inner unreal feeling subsided.
This is real!!
Chen Laohan's house.
At this moment, Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen had dark clouds all over their faces.
Because just now, a few villagers who didn't deal with him came over and said that Chen Nuo was going to study in the school, and that he was exempted from cultivation.
This is unbelievable for Chen Laohan and Chen Shi.
"The idiot, the second child, is still talented in reading? They don't know how to make up words that we can believe.
The old man Chen had a sullen face, and he didn't believe it at all.
"You listen to their nonsense here. The second child, this idiot, has been farming since he was a child. Where did he get his talent for reading?"
Chen shi also had a look of disbelief beside him.
And just when the two didn't believe it, Chen Yan had already returned from the school in the town and entered the house.
"Father and mother." Chen Yan shouted when he saw the old man Chen and the Chen family in the yard.
"My son is back?"
Seeing that Chen Yan came back at this time, the old man Chen and the Chen family immediately became happy.
"You came back just in time, and a few villagers came over just now, saying that the idiot of the second child can go to the school to study, and he was also exempted by the husband from the study fee such as repairing, is this a fake? Wait for you and father Go out for a trip and dispel this rumor directly!!
The old man Chen spoke directly and said a word.
"It's just the second idiot who wants to go to the school to study, and he doesn't even look at how much he weighs, and Chen Erhai, he really dares to say anything, bah!!"
When old man Chen spoke, he spat fiercely on the ground.
"Yes, you should go outside with your father now and dispel this rumor.
Chen shi was also talking beside him.
After the two finished speaking, Old Man Chen grabbed Chen Yan's arm and was about to go out.
66 Dad!!"
But Chen Yan had a gloomy face and shouted.
"What's wrong?" Old man Chen turned his head to look over and asked subconsciously.
"It's true, the second child really entered the school, and was accepted as a student by the husband, exempting the study fees such as repairing."
Chen Yan said with an ugly face.
Swish!!
And listening to his words, whether it was Old Man Chen or Mrs. Chen's complexion, they suddenly changed.
"What did you say? The second child, that idiot, really wants to go to the school to study, and he was exempted from the study fee?
The old man Chen's voice rose sharply, and his face became completely unbelievable.
On the side, Chen shi's face was the same, full of disbelief.
Her eldest son, whom she was proud of, was not exempted from the repair fee.
The second child, who was the most despised and was adopted out, was exempted from the repair fee??
"How is this possible, how could that idiot, the second child, be talented in reading, Boss, are you lying to your mother?
Chen shi took Chen Yan's arm and asked impatiently.
"Mother, let go of me!!
Seeing Chen Shi's hand that was not pulling for a while, grabbing his arm, Chen Yan's eyes were full of disgust, and he broke free.
Then he said with a sullen face, "I didn't lie to you, it's true, but there's something wrong, Mr. Chen Nuo was deceived.
Chen Yan opened his mouth, and as soon as these words came out, the eyes of the old man Chen and Chen shi suddenly lit up.
"What's so weird??
"Hurry up and say, no, you will go to the school's gentleman now and expose the second child's face!! A fool like him still wants to study? I bah!!
Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen spoke one after another.
In words, they are very impatient.
"I'm going to expose him, but before that, I want to ask you one thing.
Chen Yan's face was sullen (Wang Zhaozhao), and then he said directly.
"Chen Nuo, does he have any unforgettable talents?
"Never forget??"
Listening to the four-character idiom of never forgetting, Old Man Chen and Mrs. Chen looked like they didn't understand.
They don't understand idioms.
Seeing this, Chen Yan's eyes became more and more disgusting, but he forcibly suppressed this disgusting emotion.
"It's just that the memory is very good, as long as it happens, I remember everything, including what I said. 35
Chen Yan opened his mouth and explained it in the simplest words.
Then, he continued, "My husband was deceived by Chen Nuo, saying that Chen Nuo has an unforgettable talent, so that the cost of repairing and other expenses is exempted, and he has to be accepted as a real student.
Thinking of this, Chen Yan's face became hard to look at.
"Where did that idiot come from, the second child, he has a fart and only does farm work in the fields."
"That's right, he definitely doesn't have that talent."
Chen Laohan and Chen Shi didn't even think about it, they just said.
Immediately, Chen Yan was relieved.
Certainly not an unforgettable talent.
He knew it.
"Son, you hurry to find Mr. Dude, this idiot must be playing some tricks. 35
The old man Chen opened his mouth, thinking that Chen Nuo, the most despised person, was exempted from the repair fee, which was more embarrassing than when he saw that Chen Erhai's family sold ginseng.
"I talked to the husband, but he told me to shut up and said that Chen Nuo has this talent, he knows better than me.
Chen Yan said angrily.
"What? What about this? Do you really let the idiot like the second go to the school without spending a penny??
"This can't be done, son, you have to stop this, you have to let the second idiot come back obediently, he can only farm for the rest of his life."
Old Man Chen and Clan Chen spoke together.
