Chapter 516: Digging Wild Vegetables, the Heroine's Handkerchief Dating 7
Wei Fuxiao secretly felt lucky that he had started writing melodramatic novels crazily as soon as he felt something was wrong.
Otherwise, a family like mine might really be arranged clearly by those novels.
Who can be sure that every step they take is not affected by the plot?
Wei Fuxiao recalled Liang Biyun's elopement when he first came to this world, and asked, "Did Miss Liang also elope with the poor scholar because of that author's idea?"
Tiandao: “That has nothing to do with me. At that time, the author’s dream had not yet come to this world.
She simply felt that the poor scholar was better than the talented young man her family had found for her. This was her fate."
Wei Fuxiao nodded.
Knowing that it had nothing to do with the plot, Wei Fuxiao didn't know how to react.
It has nothing to do with the plot, which means that Liang Biyun may not have realized that she was wrong until now.
But even if it has something to do with the plot, this daughter who has been declared dead by her family cannot return to the Liang family.
Alas, this person must always pay the price for his choice.
Without the sense of urgency of worrying about his team being manipulated by the plot, Wei Fuxiao directly started the bad mode.
Writing those melodramatic novels is quite taxing, and she is really a little tired.
It was a day off, so Wei Fuxiao called his brother Wei Hongxuan over.
"Brother, I don't feel like writing my own storybooks recently, but my bookstore still has to continue operating.
See if there are any students in your academy who are willing to work part-time as storybook writers so they can earn a little money."
Bailu Academy is not only for children from wealthy families. It is the best academy in the country. Children of common people who can come here to study are all good students.
However, for the development of the academy, some admission places will be reserved for some prominent families every year. As long as they pay some money and pass the exam, they can get in.
Of course, this exam is not just for show, but an opportunity for children from aristocratic families with slightly inferior qualifications to stay.
If your grades are too bad, the college won’t accept you.
When Wei Hongxuan heard this, he immediately agreed.
"Don't worry, sister. Some of the students in our academy come from ordinary families and usually do some copying work to earn some money. If I tell them, they will definitely be willing to do it."
Wei Fuxiao was still a little worried and gave another reminder.
"Brother, some students are very proud and think that writing in a notebook is not presentable and will ruin their literary character. But copying a book is different.
After all, people have different ideas. You can try it out first. If they don’t have such an idea, don’t bring it up again.
Otherwise, people might think we look down on him and cause you to have conflicts with your classmates."
Wei Hongxuan nodded. "I know, don't worry. Our academy teachers also look down on students who would rather die of starvation than lose their chastity."
Yes, the purpose of studying is to become an official in the future, and to be an official one must care about the people and consider their livelihood.
If a student ignores his family's food and clothing for the sake of so-called face, even if he becomes an official in the future, it will be difficult for him to become a good official, and if the news gets out, it will only damage the reputation of the academy.
Wei Hongxuan was quite efficient. During his next day off, he brought back three students who were willing to write storybooks to make money.
Two of them were children of commoners, and one was actually the son of a noble family, namely, Mu Tianyou, the only son of the Marquis of Yiyang.
The Mu family has been a family of brave generals on the battlefield for generations, but for some reason, they have only one son for three generations. When it came to Mu Tianyou, the old lady of the Marquis's Mansion said she would not let him continue to join the army.
The old lady often muttered, "Who knows if it's because you and your son committed too many sins in the army that our Mu family is so small.
I don't have any ambitions to make my family prosperous, I just want a large family. I'll be happy if I have a few more children."
In fact, the fact that his family has few children has nothing to do with the emperor being wary of them. Even if the royal family really wants to be wary of them, it would not be their turn, as they still have the Duke of Zhenguo above them.
Moreover, there is a rule in the Yiyang Marquis’s mansion that one can take a concubine only if he is childless by the age of 30. Neither of the two Yiyang Marquis’ wives took a concubine for their husbands.
They think that since they have given birth to sons, just a little less, it means that the men are incompetent, so why should they take concubines for you?
Although the old lady hoped for a large family, she did not intend to break the rules and even comforted her daughter-in-law.
“It’s not our fault as women that we don’t have sons, we all have sons.
There are no other children, it's just a matter of the Mu family's feng shui, don't take it upon yourself."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law agreed on this matter. If they wanted to take a concubine since they already had a son, that would be wishful thinking.
When it came to Mu Tianyou's generation, the old lady was determined not to let him pursue a career in martial arts.
In fact, this was something the old marquis and the old lady had discussed. Two generations of the Mu family had controlled the military power in the northwest. If they continued like this, the royal family would sooner or later become dissatisfied, and it would be difficult to withdraw at that time.
So let Mu Tianyou keep a low profile in this generation, maybe he will be valued by the royal family in the next generation.
Then the news of the old lady's request to Mu Tianyou spread outside.
"You can study and take the imperial examinations, but if you don't have a talent for studying, just don't be a playboy and live a peaceful life. Just don't go to the battlefield.
If Tianyou can give birth to more boys in this life, they will be great contributors to our Mu family."
In fact, the Mu family didn't really care about the issue of whether to have a boy or a girl. They just wanted to put on a show for outsiders. As long as outsiders believed it, their family just wanted to live in peace and not be feared by the higher-ups.
So, when other sons of noble families were training in the coldest and hottest days of winter and summer, Mu Tianyou only needed to strengthen his body.
This time he came to Wei Fuxiao's storybook because he was fascinated by Wei Fuxiao's storybook before and wanted to write something himself.
But he didn't want to follow the cliché and write what others had written.
He took the initiative to find Wei Hongxuan, wanting to get to know the person who wrote storybooks in their bookstore.
Wei Hongxuan didn't say that those notebooks were written by his sister, he just said that the idea came from his sister.
When he learned that Wei Fuxiao had a new idea and wanted to find someone to write a storybook, he followed him to see if he could get some advice.
He could also write a masterpiece.
Mu Tianyou told Wei Fuxiao his thoughts. Wei Xiao could tell from his words that deep down in his heart he still had a yearning for the battlefield.
Unfortunately, due to the family's planning and arrangements, he can only restrain his edge and be a low-key person in all aspects.
Wei Fuxiao thought that she was familiar with this situation. It was like a man with great ambitions but nowhere to display his passion.
If you can’t write stories about courts and battlefields, isn’t it the same for writing stories about martial arts?
Jin Yong's martial arts series of stories can come in handy here.
This time, Wei Fuxiao did not speak a word and let the maid record it as he did before.
She just told Mu Tianyou her ideas, as well as some of the plots and settings of the martial arts novel.
