Jiang was suddenly questioned by her husband. She felt particularly guilty and panicked at the time.
Because she knew very well in her heart that she had basically saved all the money her husband gave her and quietly gave it to her father and brothers.
Since Jiang got married and had children, she gradually realized that her life was relatively hard. She
felt at first that she was from a scholarly family after all. However, her father and brother forced her to marry such a peasant who had not read many books.
Living with this man was nothing more than eating, going to bed, having children, and then doing endless housework.
If she didn't do things well, she would be abused by this man. He either beat or scolded her, and used her as a punching bag.
Jiang felt particularly miserable about this oppressive life.
She only hoped that after she gave her father and brother the money she saved, they would work harder and strive to pass the imperial examination as soon as possible.
In this way, the man she married would be more polite to her.
If this man was really stubborn and beat and scolded her in the future, then one day in the future, she might be redeemed by her father and brothers and remarry.
Thinking of the things that would happen in the future, Jiang forced herself to suppress her anxiety and lied seriously, "Boss, you gave me some money, but it wasn't much!"
"Besides, I don't know if you've noticed that every time you gave me money, your grandfather would come to me secretly and ask for it. After all, he is an elder, and I am just a junior. It's not easy for me to refuse him. Because once I refuse him, your grandfather will say that I am unfilial, and that you, as his grandson, are also unfilial..."
When Gu Dazhu heard that his grandfather actually asked his wife for money, he frowned and said angrily, "Damn it!"
"This old man has messed up our family in the past few years!"
"When I think of him now, I feel especially angry..."
Jiang saw that her man vented all his anger on his grandfather. She took a deep breath carefully and said seriously, "Master, to be honest, sometimes I really don't understand why your grandfather can be so hard-working..."
"He is obviously in good health, but as soon as he sees our mother, he will cover his chest and say that his heart hurts, and then he says that his stomach hurts."
"Our mother cooks by herself every day, and the stews she makes are delicious. But our grandpa doesn't seem to be very satisfied..."
When Gu Dazhu heard this, he became even angrier.
Recently, his grandfather always complained that he had pains here and there, and felt uncomfortable here and there. He didn't know how much he had spent on medical treatment and medicine.
Every time Gu Dazhu thought of the money in the family, it was like water flowing out, and he felt his heart, liver, spleen and lungs aching.
Gu Dazhu is now in his twenties and is already the father of two children.
If you don't manage a family, you don't know how expensive firewood, rice, oil and salt are.
After you become the head of a family, you will know that it is particularly difficult to make money.
However, in life, you have to spend money on food, clothing and daily necessities.
Money is hard to earn, but it is also hard to spend. Therefore, Gu Dazhu is always thinking about how to save money, how to make money, and how to save money.
Gu Dazhu thought about it over and over again, and finally he figured out a great truth.
Gu Dazhu thinks that a person's health is really important.
If you are healthy and don't get sick, you don't have to spend money on medical treatment.
Eat well and sleep well. Only then can you do a good job.
Thinking of his grandfather who refused to eat porridge when he was old, he thought about what kind of meat and fish to eat every day. He also said vigorously that he had suffered too much when he was young and had never enjoyed a good life... Gu Dazhu felt that his grandfather was particularly ignorant.
Deep in Gu Dazhu's heart, there was actually a particularly dark thought. He hoped that his grandfather would leave early...
If he left and met his ancestors, then the burden of their family would be gone.
He had never told anyone about this unfilial thought in his heart.
However, Jiang, who had been with him day and night and was thinking about how to avoid being beaten and scolded all day, knew these thoughts in his heart very well.
...
Time passed quickly, and another month passed in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that her son was already over three years old, his speech became clearer and his temperament became more clever, Chen Xuanxuan formally proposed to her husband that morning.
"Master, our child has grown up. It's time to enlighten him."
"I have taught him all the principles and books I talked to him about. This child has been smart since he was young and has an excellent memory. He remembers everything I taught him."
"I can see that this child should be sent to school as soon as possible. Let the cultured people in the school who are well-read in poetry and books teach him personally."
"My eldest brother came to visit me the day before yesterday and I told him about this. He gave me two taels of silver at that time. He also asked me to pack my son up today and he would come to pick him up in person." When
Gu Yanzhang heard this, he paused subconsciously in his eating.
"He's only three years old. Isn't it too early to send him to school now?"
Chen Xuanxuan smiled and said, "What do you mean by early?"
"My mother said that the earlier he is enlightened, the easier it will be for him to pass the imperial examination in the future."
"...I plan to send my son to school, and then I will follow him every day. After school in the evening, I will bring my son back."
Gu Yanzhang heard it and said directly without thinking, "Anyway, our place is close to your mother's home. I will personally send you and your son there in the morning, and then pick you up in the evening."
"Although our place has had a peaceful life for several years, there were tigers and wild wolves on the mountain in the past."
Chen Xuanxuan listened to this, thought about it seriously, and then nodded gently, "Okay."
"Then I'll trouble you from now on..."
Gu Yanzhang shook his head and said, "What's the trouble? You are my wife, and this son is my biological son. Isn't it my duty to be nice to you?"
