struggle in ancient times

Some people came one after another in the afternoon and chatted together. Liao Tingyu was still talking about the funny things he encountered during the exam.

Mrs. Deng and the others had smiles on their faces, and they were very appreciative: "Those classmates of yours are really amazing, so what does your master say?"

"The master said that a gentleman is also sensitive and eager to learn, and the master is the first. It is shameful to say that that person does not study hard, does not know how to be modest, and is not worthy of being a gentleman!"

"Well said, this master is amazing." Liao Ming nodded repeatedly.

"That's right! This man reads and speaks in a very polite way, rough old men like us will only call him a jerk." The people on the side agreed.

After a lively afternoon, Mrs. Deng asked those who wanted to have a look at their outstanding talents to send them away.

With so many people surrounding her son, he almost left his mother aside, and felt comfortable sending him away.

It's getting late, "I'll go and get the meat done, son, you can sit here with your father, and your sister-in-law and I are busy in the kitchen."

"Why don't I help, I read how to cook in a book. I'll teach my mother!" Liao Tingyu thought about Deng's reluctance to add oil, salt, and seasoning.

On such a good day, he wanted to have a good meal.

Looking at her son, Deng said strangely, "You have never been in the kitchen before!"

Liao Tingyu nodded with a smile, "Although I can't do this, I can talk about it! I didn't teach you the business of my eldest brother."

Deng Shi is right when she thinks about it, she probably doesn't know that this is a giant with words and a dwarf with actions.

"Okay then, teach Auntie how to do it, Auntie how to do it." Deng agreed, leaving Liao Ming sitting in the hall alone, Liao Ming didn't feel lonely but hummed happily little song.

Hearing the sound of someone coming from outside, Deng's ears were sharp, and she said strangely: "Who is here? Boss, daughter-in-law, go and open the door."

The food was also ready, and Deng Shi and Liao Tingyu brought the food to the table.Liao Tingyu looked at the delicious food, and felt that he was very good.

"I'm going to change clothes first." Liao Tingyu said, his clothes were covered with dust.

Wen Xiu'er got up and left to open the door. She guessed that Liao Shi came back from selling things in the town, and usually came back at this time, but the parents only had a younger brother-in-law now.

Liao Shi put down his things as soon as he entered the room, and announced loudly how happy he was with the announcement he read today.

Liao Ming looked at the smiling Liao Shi and couldn't help it. He didn't want to neglect him, so he thought of playing around: "What did you see? Come and tell us, what's so good about it? You're so happy. "

"Of course I'm happy. Let me tell you, our second brother passed the exam, and now he is a scholar. I read the list, so he is in the top ten, which is considered to be at the top." Liao Shi asked him to say, Don't say out loud, "You didn't see the list when it was posted, there are people everywhere, I still rely on squeezing to the front."

Liao Shi was talking about how he had just read the notice, and while sitting in his seat, he suddenly discovered the sumptuous dishes on the table.

"Hey, it's so delicious! We ate so well today, and there's chicken soup and fried meat. There's also wine. Didn't Auntie stop you from drinking?" Although Liao Shi was not very smart, he Not a fool either. "Dad, did you already know about it, that's why you bought so many delicious food today."

"Well, your second brother came back today, and it was your daughter-in-law who ran out and told us." Liao Shi took a sip of his wine cautiously, and said, "In the past, the fortune teller told me that your brother is the fate of a scholar. , I will definitely be able to pass the exam, don’t you see that you will pass the exam.”

"Yes, yes, yes, my second brother is really good." Liao Shi said carelessly, "Didn't you say that he is back? Why isn't he at the table?"

"He just cooked for your mother, and his clothes were covered in oil, so he went to change." Liao Ming explained. "If it's not that you don't know your second son, you should be careful. This young master's life is just a pity. I have no ability. You say that my son is long and fair, and he is not like the one you fished out of black coal. If I had money, I would hire one or two maids to serve him."

"Then what you said, isn't it your son who was fished out of the black coal? Besides, the elder brother's skin is not dark, at most he is bronze." Liao Tingyu came out of the room and said with a smile.

"You, just say good things for him, there is no bronze color, just a black one, a whole mud monkey, he has never been in vain since he was a child. When he was a child, he was on the house and was very naughty. It's not like you were obedient when you were young. Sigh, now you are all capable, all of you have grown up, and Dad is also old." Liao Ming looked at the calluses on his hands, feeling a little helpless.

These years are not forgiving, I think he was a young boy back then, but now his own children are married, and even the youngest son has a career, this is both a family and a career, maybe only his youngest son can have such a blessing.

After all, Liao Ming knew from looking at his eldest son's ashen look that this was probably the way he would be in his life.

Fortunately, my youngest son is capable, so I will let him support and support my brother in the future.

Liao Ming made a careful calculation in his heart, and felt that he had to do this. When the second child was studying, the family's focus was on the second child.

And now that the second child is also successful, I just need to find a wife for him, preferably one from the town, and then have a grandson.

Looking at his son's fair and handsome face, how could he be worthy of him from the countryside.

Liao Tingyu didn't know that Liao Ming had already planned how to take care of his son after birth.

At the dinner table, Mrs. Deng watched her second son sitting beside her elder son, who seemed to be quite thin, so she put some meat into his bowl with all her strength: "Second son, eat more, watch your reading Those who have worked hard have lost a lot of weight." As he spoke, he stared at the eldest son who had been eating silently beside him.

"You don't wink, don't you see how thin your brother is? You're still holding it hard." Then he hit Liao Shi with the head of the chopsticks.

Liao Shi was not angry either, and said with a smile, "Mother, take a good look, the second child looks like this no matter how much he eats. Now that the second child has passed the examination as a scholar, it's a good day. We don't need to put chopsticks away today. Put your head upright. Come on, daughter-in-law, this meat is delicious. You eat more, so that the child in your stomach can enjoy the blessing of the second child, and strive to be a scholar in the future."

When Mrs. Deng heard this, it was true. Now that the second son of the family is a scholar, he can completely tutor his future grandson. If the grandson can be admitted to the scholar, then he is the mother of the scholar and the grandma of the little scholar.

Now Mrs. Deng immediately added a large piece of fat meat to Wen Xiu'er's bowl with the chopsticks: "Come on, daughter-in-law, eat more, feed my grandson well, don't let my grandson starve. "

Wen Xiuer had never received such treatment.

Flattered, she put the meat in her mouth and ate it slowly.I'm afraid Mrs. Deng will say that she has never eaten pork in eight lifetimes.

Seeing the family eating in harmony, Liao Tingyu was quite happy in his heart. Over the past few months, everyone has grown some flesh, and their faces are much better than before.
