Fast time travel: Cannon fodder female supporting role she quit

Chapter 374 I was full of peach and plum blossoms in ancient times (3)

"Uncle Chen." Lin Wan saw him approaching and greeted him with a smile, "Why are you free to come to town today?" Chen Wenyu asked with concern, "Do you still have any money on hand? Uncle Chen still has it. "As he said this, he was about to give her the silver, but he was concerned about the defense between men and women, so he just stretched out the hand holding the silver.

Lin Wan quickly refused, "No, Uncle Chen, I have money to spend." Chen Wenyu watched the original owner grow up. When the original owner's father was still alive, he often went to see the original owner's father and occasionally had a drink.

Because Chen Wenyu was not married, he was relatively well-off. When the original owner was young, he often brought things to the original owner.

As for why he doesn't marry, there is a reason. It stands to reason that he is a scholar and the accountant of a restaurant. Generally speaking, he has no worries about marriage.

When he was studying, he married into a poor family. There was only one old mother in the family who grew vegetables and sold them for him to study, and he also relied on his good calligraphy to help others copy books to reduce the burden on his mother. Ordinary people would stay away from this situation. Even if his mother wanted to arrange a marriage for him, it would be difficult.

After all, his family is in such a difficult situation, and he is still studying. Studying is like a gold-swallowing beast, and there may not be any rewards. Moreover, he has not yet passed the examination, and he may not be able to do so in the future. Marrying his daughter will mean hardship. The most important thing is His family couldn't afford the betrothal gift, so the wedding was delayed.

Over time, he got older. Later, when he was admitted as a scholar, many people proposed to marry him, but he had no such intention at all. He only wanted to take the imperial examination. He also persuaded his mother not to marry him first and let him prepare for the exam safely. Her mother He also agreed and put the matter aside so that he could study in peace.

As for why he didn't continue the exam, it was because his mother was seriously ill and needed money for medical treatment. As a son, he should be filial. He gave up the imperial exam and found a job as a cashier in a restaurant. He was also grateful to the restaurant owner for lending a helping hand when he was in trouble. He has been working as a cashier in a restaurant.

However, his mother was not rescued and died within three months.

After that, no one offered him a kiss, but he refused them all. Although there were fewer offers over the years, there were still some, but he didn't take it to heart.

As for why the original owner’s father didn’t renew their relationship, it was because the original owner’s mother had a dystocia when giving birth to her, and her father did not continue the relationship in order to take care of her. During this period, there were also matchmakers who wanted to marry him and let him renew their relationship, but they were all rejected. .

Firstly, it was because he was deeply in love with the original mistress, and secondly, he was worried that the original mistress would be wronged, so he never married another woman.

The fact that Chen Wenyu is able to interact so frequently with the original owner's father is probably related to this reason. After all, when you have a family, you naturally have to take care of the family and don't have so much time to get together.

"Where did you get the money from a girl's family? Take it." Chen Wenyu said forcefully. If he hadn't been concerned about the differences between men and women, he would have put the money into Lin Wan's hands.

"Uncle Chen, I really do. Look, I bought some books and plan to reopen my father's academy." Lin Wan raised the books in her hand, "So don't worry."

Chen Wenyu frowned slightly, "You want to reopen the academy?" It's not that he looked down on women, he also knew that Lin Wan had learned a lot from his father. If women couldn't take part in the imperial examination, no matter what the exam, the scholar would definitely have her. a place.

Although it is much more open now than in the previous dynasty, it is always difficult for her to make a living as a woman in the world, let alone open an academy. If others know about it, they will only laugh at it and will not support her.

Although he has confidence in her, she has never participated in the imperial examination and does not know the process and what will be tested. If she wants to open an academy, she may have to accept some children to teach them enlightenment.

"Well, Tao Li Academy was founded by my father. I can't just watch him lose like this. Besides, I can't read some books, but I can't do anything else."

Chen Wenyu sighed, "Take it, you will need money if you want to reopen the academy." Seeing that she couldn't refuse, Lin Wan had to accept it, and thanked her again.

"If you need any help, just tell me." Chen Wenyu added, "Although your father is gone, you still have to take care of yourself."

He will never forget that day. When he went to the county to take the college examination, he encountered heavy rain on the road. At that time, his family was poor and could not afford to rent a car, so he had to walk. He set off ten days early, but still had the last remaining time. It happened to be a heavy rain during the day's journey. In order to catch up with the college examination, he walked forward in the rain. His clothes soaked by the rain looked extremely embarrassed. It was at this time that he met his noble person. Yes, he would Lin Wan's father regarded him as a noble person. Without him, he would not have been able to pass the examination as a scholar, nor would he have the life he has now.

"Sir, are you going to the county?" He lowered his head and hurried on. The rain fell down his forehead in a column of water, and a voice rang in his ears. He raised his head and looked at the place where the voice came from, and saw a carriage parked there. next to him.

At that time, he didn't think that the owner of the carriage would help him. After all, he was just a poor man who was soaked by the rain and was in dire straits, and he couldn't repay others. "Yes." He responded and continued to move forward.

Unexpectedly, that person called him to stop him, "My lord, we are also going to the county, if you don't mind, you can go with us."

Chen Wenyu stared in disbelief, his eyes filled with hope, but thinking of his wet appearance now, "I might get your carriage wet if I do this."

The groom smiled and said, "This is what our young master means. Come up quickly."

Chen Wenyu didn't hesitate anymore. He knew that this was his chance. With such heavy rain, even if he walked to the county, he would probably be too cold to take the college examination.

"Thank you." Chen Wenyu bowed his hands to the coachman to thank him, then climbed onto the shaft on the other side, and sat on it carefully, "My lord, you will get sick if you sit outside in the wind." The coachman frowned at him, after all, he was covered with Drenched, this condition really doesn't look good.

"Thank you little brother, but I'm soaked right now, so I won't go in so as not to wet your master's compartment, and I'm grateful that you can give me a place to hide from the rain."

He was about to say something else when he saw the car door being opened from the inside. After he reacted and wanted to say thank you, he heard, "Come in and change into clean clothes, otherwise you will get cold easily. I saw you walking in the rain, so I thought you were coming." The county has important things to do, and if it is delayed because of this, it will be more than worth the loss."

Chen Wenyu thought for a while and said, "Thank you sir."

Chen Wenyu squeezed the water out of his clothes and walked into the car with the bookcase. "Drink some hot tea to warm yourself up." Chen Wenyu took the tea cup and thanked him again, "Thank you."

Chen Wenyu unwrapped the bookcase wrapped in clothes, he was relieved to see that the books inside were not wet, and felt extremely fortunate that the top of the bookcase was soaked, and the books inside would also get wet after a while .

"Aren't you going to change your clothes?"

"No, it will be done soon." Looking at the dripping robe, Chen Wenyu said this with a lack of confidence.
