Who wants to study? Holding a book and reading it all day long is not only boring, but also a waste of money. It is better to keep this money for him. It is enough for him to live frugally for a long time.

"I have your brother and sister-in-law at home. It is the best filial piety you can show me by going to a private school to gain fame."

Yao Shu glanced at Shen Fugui angrily. Seeing the obvious repulsion on his face, she didn't know what to say.

This was really a headache, and she didn't even know how to persuade her.

"Mom, please don't spend that wasted money. I'm not good at studying."

Shen Fugui sighed in his heart that he shouldn't have behaved so well in the past that his mother always remembered him. She used to give him money and food, but now she gives him the opportunity to study.

For poor families, it is undoubtedly the biggest preference for their children to study. Everyone knows that studying is the most expensive thing.

"I know you are smart. Wang Datong, I told you that you have some talent. In this case, I want you to go to a private school to study. If there is no chance that our family will have scholars, then the ancestral graves of the old Shen family will be smoking. .”

"Mom, you have already become an official. This is enough to make my ancestors proud, and it is not bad for me. I just don't want to study."

Shen Fugui was so stubborn that he simply stated his feelings directly. If he didn't like it, he just didn't like it.

He said so, and Yao Shu really didn't know what to say.

Why is Shen Fugui so difficult to deal with at the age of fourteen, but she still can't force this matter, so she can only choose to remain silent. It seems that she has to think of other ways.

"It's getting late. You go to bed early and I'll go back first."

After Shen Fugui said these words, he ran away as fast as a wolf was chasing him, no matter how fast he was.

Looking at his leaving figure, Yao Shu shook her head helplessly. This matter must be discussed in the long run.

Just when she got up and was about to wash up, there was movement at the door. The door that Shen Fugui had just closed was pushed open a crack. Yao Shu looked at the door in confusion. Shen Fugui would not change his mind. .

But the person who walked into the yard was really her son.

"mother."

Shen Bei opened the door and walked in with a playful smile. Looking at his flattering expression, you knew that this visit was definitely not a good thing and he must want her help.

"Why are you still up so late? What are you doing here?"

Yao Shu guessed in her heart that she was here to ask for money, right?

She still remembered the agreement she made with Shen Bei. Shen Bei wanted to do business, but after waiting for a long time, there was no movement from Shen Bei. She began to wonder if the other party had given up on this idea.

But from now on, it seems that Shen Bei's desire to do business has always been there.

"I have something I want to discuss with you."

"You said."

Yao Shu couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. She was still very interested in what Shen Bei said.

"Look at this, I've already figured out what kind of business I want to do. Mom, do you think what you said before still counts?"

Shen Bei was a little worried that Yao Shu would regret it. The more people care about something, the more they are afraid of twists and turns.

But his worries were unnecessary. Yao Shu was not going to go back on her promise. She was hoping that Shen Bei could do serious things as soon as possible. She took the paper handed over by Shen Bei. The top of the paper looked like a ghost drawing.

The Shen family's time to learn to read was too short, so Shen Bei's handwriting was naturally not much better.

It clearly stated Shen Bei's plan. He was going to be a salesman walking around the streets, carrying goods to sell in rural villages. He had lived outside Zhangzhou for so long and had never met a salesman before.

What kind of goods do you want to import? What do the people in the village want? Or maybe it was cheaper to buy goods from that place, he wrote clearly, these days, he was not busy in vain.

Seeing such a piece of information, even though the words on it were very ugly, Yao Shu felt that it was very good. She gradually smiled and nodded happily.

"Very good, just do what you want."

Without Shen Bei saying anything else, she took out five taels of silver and handed it to Shen Bei.

This was undoubtedly a huge sum of money for ordinary people, but she gave it away without thinking. This cheerful attitude made Shen Bei's eyes widen, and she quickly realized and caught the money.

"mother……"

Seeing Shen Bei's extremely moved look, Yao Shu couldn't help but laugh. As long as there was a legitimate reason, she was never stingy.

"What are you doing? Isn't this what I promised you a long time ago?"

Shen Bei nodded. His nose was a little sore. It had grown so big. This was the first time he had experienced the feeling of having family support. Thinking of the bad things he had done before, he couldn't help but feel a little guilty.

The room fell silent for a moment, Yao Shu really didn't know how to face such a scene.

"Do your best from now on. If you have nothing else to do, go back. I want to rest."

She didn't dare to keep Shen Bei anymore. If this scene was more sensational, she wouldn't know how to deal with it.

After struggling all night, Yao Shu's mood was quite complicated. Anyway, she finally got one of them right. The other sons should just take their time. For now, as long as they don't get into trouble again.

It took her a lot of effort to turn around the reputation of the Shen family, but she couldn't let it be ruined.

Life in the village was very peaceful, and Yao Shu did not worry too much about her careless sons. The weather gradually turned colder, and every afternoon, everyone would gather in the open space in the middle of the village to talk in the sun.

"I never thought we could live such a good life. This time last year, we almost starved to death."

"Who says it's not the case? If it weren't for my sister-in-law, we would have fallen on the roadside long ago."

"I went into the city last time and saw a piece of leather that was very warm. If I could make it into clothes and wear it, it would definitely not be cold in the winter. I wonder when we can afford it?"

"Just daydream. Even before the disaster, we didn't have money for those precious things..."

It is said that people's hearts are insatiable. Now that people in Dahezhuang Village can fill their stomachs, they can't help but want to live a better life.

Yao Shu listened to everyone's conversation. Although she didn't speak, other thoughts came to her mind. It was not impossible to make money.

Nowadays, almost all villages within a ten-mile radius have built pit courtyards. Now everyone only has some scattered jobs to do. This income is not enough, and it is time to think about other ways to make money.

Not to mention others, she also wants to live a good life.

Their family has some connections with the General's Mansion, so it shouldn't be a big deal for her to do some money-making business. Yao Shu is already ready to move. Who doesn't want to make more money and live a good life?
