Nongmen Xiaofu's Reborn Wife
Chapter 111 Not Accepting
Ah Jiu heard Gu Dexing's words, and replied directly: "Sister Gu Jiaxing, the master has read the words and articles you wrote yesterday."
Gu Dexing became excited when he heard this, and asked Ah Jiu: "What did Shang Xiucai say? Is it, is it ..." I think the article is well written, so I want to make it as a student?
Ah Jiu smiled, and said: "Teacher didn't say anything, just ask me to give you three letters. This, this belongs to you, and belongs to Brother Wang. "
Ah Jiu took it from the cloth bag on her waist. Send three letters and give two of them to Gu Dexing.
Gu Dexing picked it up, before he had time to thank Ah Jiu, he rushed out of Gu's courtyard. As soon as he left Gu's courtyard, he couldn't wait to open a letter with his name on it.
But looking at the contents of the letter, Gu Dexing's heart turned cold, the letter only mentioned two sentences, one of which was his evaluation of his knowledge, saying that if he wanted to learn, it was only two sentences, he could go to a private school in the city.to study for ten years, acceptable for fame.
The last sentence clearly stated that he would not accept disciples.
Gu Dexing did not believe that the article he wrote was so good that Shang Xiucai did not accept it?
He did not believe it to be true, and opened the letter with the name Gu Dewang on it.There is only one sentence in the letter: You can find Xu Tongsheng from Songzigou for enlightenment.
Clearly, he disliked Gu Dewang's science, and he didn't even want to enlighten him.
Gu Dexing's heart was finally balanced, but he was still unreconciled, why didn't Shang Xiucai accept him as a disciple?
If he could worship Shang Xiucai as his teacher, he would be able to establish a relationship with Jiang Xianwei, and their families would benefit from him.
But Gu Dexing was only a seventeen-year-old boy, and he was also a village boy with limited knowledge. He couldn't think of a better way to get Shang Xiucai to accept him as an apprentice for a while, so he could only go home in a daze.
Seeing Gu Dexing not entangled, Ah Jiu heaved a sigh of relief, looked at Gu Jinan next to him, and handed him a letter: "Sister An, this is a letter from master."
Gu Jinan picked it up nervously, thanked him, and returned to his room and Brother Cheng's room, opened the envelope, and looked at the letter on it.
There were only two words written on the letter: Wenzhi.
Gu Jinan frowned, but immediately understood what Shang Xiucai meant Shang Xiucai asked about his ambition.
Gu Jinan immediately took out a pen and paper, and wrote a sentence on the yellow paper: An's ambition in this life is to protect the family and plead with the people.
After he finished writing, he saw this sentence and became restless again, he wrote family protection first, which showed that the first thing he wanted to protect was his family, his family, the second is to plead for the people.
If Shang Xiucai were to read this answer, would he think that he was a selfish person and therefore not accept it?
Gu Jinan hesitated, but he did not change his answer. After her ink dried, she folded the yellow paper, put it in a simple envelope made of yellow paper, and handed it to Ah Jiu: "This is the answer I gave to Uncle Shang." Brother Jiu should help deliver the letter to Uncle Shang."
Ah Jiu took the letter and said with a smile: "Don't worry, Brother An, I will definitely bring you the letter." The master is waiting too.
Ah Jiu did not stay for long in Gu's house, after delivering the items, she picked up the bean dregs cake from Gu's house, and took out a reply gift prepared by Cui Shi, who had been delivering the goods, and returned to Shang's house with Lao Luo.
Gu Jinan stood in the courtyard for a bit, then returned to the kitchen to make out.
Gu Jinli saw that he was very nervous, and did not ask what he wrote to Shang Xiucai? Instead, he took out a bag of soybeans and started picking beans to make soybean oil.
He brought soybeans to a small stone mill outside the kitchen, and began grinding the beans with stones.After working for more than an hour, he finally finished grinding twenty catties of beans.
After the beans were finished grinding and it started to darken, Gu Jinli cleaned up and went cooking.
He willingly put oil into cooking, which was more delicious, so as long as he was at home, he would cook. Although Cui Shi loved you, but Cui Shi loved the child more, so he let Gu Jinli make trouble.
Dinner was fragrant old yam rice, crispy leftovers from yesterday, fried tofu, scrambled eggs, fried bean sprouts, fried bean sprouts, and tofu soup with cabbage and minced meat.The whole family has fun eating.
The third granny complained in her mouth: "It's too good to eat. If you have crunchy meat, do not make eggs. And this rice, drink porridge only and do not need to cook dry rice. " But watch the kids no longer look like they used to Because they're dry and skinny, I think it's worth eating so much.
After dinner, several family members came to Gu Jinli's house to routinely count and distribute money.
Their efforts are now very good, and they can sell 350 catties of tofu, 200 catties of bean dregs, and hundreds of packs of seasonings every day.
After everyone counted the money, Gu Jinan started reporting: "After deducting the reserve capital, the net profit today is 12,360 Wen." His family
can get 42144 Wen, while the other six families, Each family can get 12036 Wen.
Aunt Tian covered her heart and said, "You can get one or two taels of silver a day, well, this is too much." When they
first starting to make out for a living, each family could earn several hundred taels of silver. a day, but today they could. It was divided into one or two, and it was really something I never dreamed of.
Looking at Aunt Tian's appearance, Madam Chen looked down on her, and said, "That's too much? There will be more in the future. Today, every family in town eats knows us, and there are still many of them today ." The food store came to our stall and asked if they wanted to make out our five fried condiments, they dreamed, this is our livelihood, how can we let them follow?" Speaking of this, Madam Chen was extremely proud,
because Tofu makes a living, and a lot of people in town come to curry favor with him, trying to figure out how to make out, but who is he? Can you tell them?
Some families happily split the money and went home separately.
On the second day, it was Luo and Tian's turn to set up the stall, and Gu Jinli and Qin Sanlang followed suit.
He also brought in his family's household registration. When he came to the city, he helped open the stall. He went to the iron shop with Qin Sanlang and ordered ten plate-sized discs, and two three-jin hammers. .
The blacksmith was very curious about the item he made, and asked: “This hammer is still useful, why do you make iron biscuits at home?” They can't eat it.
Gu Jinli smiled, and thought of a reason to fool the blacksmith: "My family wants to make fresh food, and I want to use this disc to make it, so I ordered the disc." Now know the Gu family is selling well, and everyone in town knows that
the master blacksmith also knew about it. Hearing what he said, he did not ask again. After reading his household registration, he said, "Iron is expensive now. One catty of coarse iron costs one tael of silver. If you make ten discs, each weighing one catty." , and make two hammers of three jin, these items cost twenty taels of silver." It's still cheap
.
"If you do, leave a deposit of five taels of silver, and you can come to pick it up tomorrow afternoon.
This thing is easy to make, and it only takes a little effort with a hammer. As for the disc, just press it a few times.
Gu Jinli still had some silver money from Qi Yi in his hands, so he was ready to give a deposit of five taels of silver, and left the iron shop with Qin Sanlang.
