Lady Lingquan lifts a thousand pounds

Lin Youfu didn't want to give any conditions. After all, he just wanted to take advantage of himself and didn't want to pay.

But he thought about it and looked at Lin Yiyue, Lin Erfeng and Lin Sanchuan.

Lin Erfeng and Lin Sanchuan are both ten years old. The children in the school are all enlightened at the age of six or seven, and some even start to read at the age of five.

The three of them were five, six, or even seven years later than others.

In other words, they spend more effort in reading than others.

How smart can a child with a wooden head like Lin Ping'an be?

After such a comparison, Lin Youfu felt that these students would definitely not pass the exam, and even if they did, it would only be in the Year of the Monkey and the Moon in the Horse.

He thought for a while, if he bet, he would definitely win.

He thought for a moment and then said loudly, "Okay, let's bet. If anyone loses, give the other party five hundred taels of silver."

The villagers took in the cold air one after another.

"That's five hundred taels, how dare you speak."

"He just saw that Yi Yue was studying late and wanted to deceive others."

Lin Ping'an felt a little unsure and didn't want the children to fight for this bet.

But Lin Yiyue asked, "Does everyone have to compete with Lin Guangsheng? If five people beat him, we can get five hundred taels five times?"

That's two thousand five hundred taels, and Lin Youfu doesn't have that much money.

Lin Youfu said, "No, it's because the five of you have to take less time than Guangsheng to pass the exam, and you all have to pass the exam to win. Each of you only wants a hundred taels from you. Isn't that much?"

In other words, if five people compete with Lin Guangsheng, all of them must beat him.

As long as one of them takes longer than Lin Guangsheng to pass the examination, even if they lose, they will have to pay five hundred taels.

Lin Youfu is very good at calculating, and he calculates very well.

He felt he was a sure winner.

Lin Ping'an also thought he would win, but Lin Yiyue said loudly, "Okay, we agreed, but before signing the gambling contract, uncle, do you have to pay for our family's belongings first?"

Lin Pingan looked at his sons with some worry, but their eyes were firm.

Seeing that the children were trying to fight for something, he couldn't say anything else.

If you bet, just bet. If you lose, you will lose five hundred taels.

He works hard and can make money by setting up a stall, and the money in his bag has not yet been exposed.

"Yiyue is right. Just bet. But brother, you and your men smashed up my house and injured my wife and children. We can't just let it go."

The village chief also said that we could not forget it and must compensate.

Lin Youfu looked ugly and did not want to compensate.

But after thinking about the money that he would definitely get in the future, he said, "Okay, I'll give it, but I have to add a clause in the bet. As long as you have a child who exceeds the time it takes for Guangzhou students to take the meritorious examination by three years, even if they pass the exam in the future, It can’t be calculated, for every one who has a period of more than three years, an additional five hundred taels of silver will be given to me.”

He felt that Lin Yiyue might not be able to pass the exam, and then it would be another thousand, five hundred taels.

The second child doesn't have that much money, but it doesn't matter, he will make the second child have nothing.

Lin Ping'an said angrily, "You are simply whimsical."

Lin Youfu sarcastically said, "Don't you dare to bet?"

He looked over like a coward, and Lin Yiyue and others said they were betting.

Even if they read the book badly, they still must pass the exam.

Lin Ping'an was cruel and agreed.

The villagers watched a wonderful show and their blood boiled with excitement.

They want to wait a few more years to see who will win in the end.

The village chief had already begun to calculate the losses of Lin Ping'an's family and asked Lin Xiangnan to write a bet.

Lin Ping'an took Liu Siniang, Lin Wuhu and Lin Xiangxiang back to the house and tidied up the house briefly.

The villagers looked at the messy yard and thought he was really pitiful.

What a misfortune for a son who has no one to love him.

Everyone volunteered to help, but Lin Ping'an said no, they could take care of it themselves.

"Thank you to the folks for your help today. I, Lin Pingan, am very grateful."

There are still vermicelli at home, so we can’t let anyone see them.

Everyone waved their hands and said it was nothing, telling him not to worry.

People in a village should help each other.

This is how it is in the village. When one family has trouble, everyone else has to help.

This is how the villagers survive.

Soon, the village chief calculated that Lin Youfu needed to compensate Lin Ping'an's family fifteen taels of silver.

Compensation will be made for the broken door, tables, chairs, benches, clothes, and the injuries sustained by Liu Siniang and three other people.

Lin Youfu shouted that it was too expensive, and Mrs. Lin also said that he was blackmailing people.

The village chief kicked his stool away angrily.

"Am I blackmailing people? Did I let you bully people? Why didn't you listen when I shouted to stop? Lin Youfu, Lin Youfu, your son is still a scholar, can you be smarter?"

"As for what you did today, if word spreads about it, will your son still have the dignity to be an official outside? In the future, if he is admitted to the imperial examination, and this kind of thing spreads, will he still have the dignity to be an official? The people above will not Check?"

The scholars here pay most attention to face, and the higher authorities also pay attention to the moral character of the scholars.

If you have bad moral character and cannot be an official, you will be impeached.

The village chief admired their stupidity. They wanted Lin Guangsheng to take an official career, but they were so shameless and didn't know how to hide it.

Is this going crazy?

Lin Youfu and Mrs. Lin were both shocked.

They really forgot about it just now.

In fact, I remembered it originally, otherwise I wouldn't have bullied people behind closed doors, and I wouldn't have asked Lin Wuhu and the others to call for people.

But then the commotion got so bad that I forgot about it.

Now as soon as the village chief reminded them, they hurried to see the villagers who were watching the excitement.

These talkative women will definitely go out and talk nonsense.

How to shut their mouths?

The village chief added, "You obediently give the money. Today's matter will be treated as a conflict between your brothers, and no one will go out and talk nonsense."

"If you can have an official in your family, it will be an honor for the whole village. I don't want you to have a bad reputation."

The implication is that if he is still making trouble like this and refuses to listen to advice, he won't care.

Whatever the reputation, the villagers can pass it on.

Between Lin Guangsheng's future and reputation and money, Lin Youfu could only choose the former and abandon the latter.

He could only obediently give the money, and then signed the bet viciously.

"Lin Pingan, just wait to pay, I will make you bankrupt."

He said it in a low voice. With the village chief's advice, he began to worry about his reputation.

Lin Pingan, on the other hand, was very calm and even advised, "Brother, please be more careful when doing things in the future. Don't ruin Guangsheng's future."

The village chief's words were an attempt to persuade Lin Youfu and also a reminder to Lin Pingan.

Lin Youfu wants to lose face. If he makes trouble again in the future, he should make it bigger. If the trouble becomes too big, Lin Youfu won't dare to make trouble.

Lin Ping'an's mind is very active now. He has heard it and is learning and applying it now.

Lin Youfu was really angry, but he didn't dare to say anything more.

But the feud was completely forged, and the two families became enemies.

It all depends on who wins in the end and whose son raises a more promising son.
