Zhao Dawen had a splitting headache. Could I not interrupt him at this time? Could I give him some space?
"Mom, go to your room."
Old Sun sat on the chair without moving, "Why, you have something to say to your wife, and I can't listen? What can't I listen to? Are you two gossiping about me behind my back? Saying bad things about me?"
Don't think she doesn't know. When she stayed here for a few days, the eldest brother's family was very displeased with her as an old woman.
Everyone wanted her to leave quickly, but she refused to leave, not even for a day. The county town was big and nice, and she hadn't seen enough. She asked the eldest son's wife to take her out to buy food and eat.
Old man, do you see that down there? This is the son you have spoiled all your life. You are right to say that he is unreliable.
From now on, no one can take money from her pocket, including the boss.
"You want to listen, right? Mom, I was fired by the college and they don't want me anymore." The shame he had felt along the way reached its peak at this moment.
"Why don't they want you? Why? Didn't you say before that you are the most knowledgeable person in the academy and you pay me the most money? Many parents signed up for your name. Why wouldn't they want you?"
Since the college had already established a reputation and had a stable source of students, they were unwilling to keep a teacher who was well paid but had a bad reputation.
What kind of parents come to him to complain, saying that the child is gone because they think he is too expensive, don't want him anymore, and want to find someone cheaper to fill his shoes.
"When the Qian family held a funeral, many people saw Ruxin crying at the coffin. They knew that I let my daughter become a concubine and said that I had a bad character." Zhao Dawen said it all. He had never been shameless in front of his mother.
"What, you were discovered? Oh, Ruxin, you really screwed your father. Why didn't you wear a veil at the beginning? You idiot."
Zhao Ruxin was scolded for no reason. Isn't it that her grandmother's train of thought is so strange? Everyone knows to blame the father, but she is the one who blames herself for not hiding her face well.
"Grandma, Madam Qian is a man of her word. Do you think she would let me cry in the funeral veil? Didn't you see how badly my knee was injured? Do you think she is an easy person to talk to?"
She said at the beginning that the master liked her face the most, so she had to be present at everything, and everyone could fall sick and take a rest, except her.
"Why is she so evil? Son, why don't you talk to the dean and have a good talk. You didn't sell your daughter intentionally, did you? Besides, so many people can become concubines, why can't our Ruxin?
Being favored by Mr. Qian shows that our Ruxin is both talented and pretty. Would he even take a look at an ordinary person?"
This is true, but others don't think so. After all, he is a well-known figure in the county. If he had ended up in this situation, Zhao Dawen really wanted to just hit his head against a wall and die.
He didn't dare to go out casually in the county town from now on, and he had to avoid acquaintances. He regretted that he should have sent his daughter far away to be a concubine. If he had sent her to the provincial capital, no one would know about his dirty deeds.
"Mom, stop talking. It's too late to say anything now. Not to mention me, even Jiadong and the others don't know what to do. The reputation of a scholar is too important. If a person has no reputation, he will not be admitted even if he passes the exam."
"Can the examiner know about your family affairs?"
"Before issuing the list, they will check the family background of the successful candidates."
The two children looked grim. If they could not pass the imperial examination, all their hard work in studying would become a joke.
Is it possible that my only option in this life is to make money by copying books for others like my dad did?
