When I returned to Xinghua Village, I learned that my parents were no longer alive. They had built a house on the old house to provide for my son's education.
The eldest brother is dull and not a good student, but the younger brother Li Ang seems to be quite smart.
He let his son go to school, hoping that his son could pass the exam so that he could become an old man and no longer live a life that was looked down upon by others.
Originally, he thought his father was a decent student, so he placed all his hopes on Ang Lee.
However, ever since the third child was born, I heard from the old woman that the youngest son is good at studying and is the descendant of the "Yi Qu Xing". He will definitely pass the imperial examination and become the top scholar in the future.
He really wanted his sons to pass the exam, so he listened to his wife's advice, stopped the eldest son from studying, made him do housework, and sent the third son to a private school.
After all, given their family's financial situation, supporting one person in school is already a struggle.
To support two people, he couldn't even think about it even if he picked up a few hundred taels of silver.
So he took him back from the private school regardless of his father's wishes.
He still remembers the time when his teacher stood in front of the private school and refused to let him study, tears in his eyes stubbornly refusing to fall.
After all these years, it's hard to say that I don't feel guilty towards my husband.
He didn't feel much guilty at first, but when his third son passed the examination and became a student, which gave him hope, the guilt in his heart disappeared.
In order to allow the third child to concentrate on his studies and not worry about money and family matters, he has been trying hard to brainwash the eldest and second child.
Let the two brothers earn money willingly and save money for the third brother.
During the slack season, the eldest son goes to the town to do odd jobs, and the younger son goes to the mountains to hunt. In this way, they can save a lot of money in a year.
But studying is too expensive, and it is difficult for the whole family to support it.
Later, there was really no other way but to sell the land. Of the 100 acres of land, there were still 10 acres left after the sale, and the remaining 3 acres were wasteland that had been reclaimed by the old man.
Some time ago, the third son asked his third daughter-in-law to bring a message, asking for ten taels of silver.
Their family could only save about 100 taels of silver a year, and they had to spend ten years' savings in one go, which was impossible to come up with.
What's more, all the money saved every year is spent on the third child's education, so I really can't take it out.
The old woman suggested selling the twins, and although he was reluctant, he knew that they were his grandsons after all.
But I have already paid so much for the third child's studies. The third child said that he is confident of passing the exam next year. At this critical moment, I must not delay the third child's exam because of money.
What he didn't expect was that his family could be so cruel as to acquiesce in selling their grandchildren.
The third brother actually gave him a "king bomb", and not only was he expelled from the college, but he also got involved in gambling.
It's hard for him to know that once you get involved in gambling, it's like being in a deep sea. At the very least, you might lose your hands and feet, and at the worst, your family might be ruined.
He couldn't accept it, he didn't want to believe it was true. When the thugs questioned him, his mind was completely immersed in disbelief and he couldn't hear any sound from the outside world.
Seeing that the old man didn't react, the leader waited for a while and became a little impatient. He wanted to teach him a lesson and gave the monkey a wink.
The monkey picked up the iron stick in his hand, raised it up as he walked, walked in front of Old Man Li, raised the stick high, and was about to bring it down.
"ah!"
The monkey's wrist was hit, and he lost his grip on the stick, which flew out and landed heavily on the open space beside him.
"who?"
"Whoever dares to hit me, come out and I will kill you."
The monkey covered his wrist, bared his teeth and cursed.
"You wanted to see me, didn't you? My aunt is here, why don't you kneel down to greet her?"
All the thugs heard the sweet sound of flowing springs and turned their heads at the same time to look in the direction of the sound.
