Chapter 33 Feeling embarrassed for him
Shen Guangyao nodded firmly, "Really, really, I just feel guilty that I haven't passed the scholar examination, so you can enjoy the blessing."
"Huh!" Old Gao breathed a sigh of relief.
He glared at Shen Guangyao angrily, "Then you won't make it clear."
Shen Guangyao felt more and more that he didn't read the almanac when he went out, and even his mother disliked him.
The play couldn't go on anymore, so he simply got up and sat down.
“Mother, it’s not that I didn’t make it clear. After all, it’s a big matter of five taels of silver.”
Lao Gao's face suddenly changed, and his voice was sharp, "What five taels of silver?"
Shen Guangyao knew that his mother was so naughty that she could only get in and out, so he said in a good voice: "The academy has opened an etiquette class, and every student must participate in it to prepare for the scientific examination.
I heard that the etiquette teacher is from Zhongdu. The opportunity is rare, but also expensive. Each person has to pay five taels..."
In fact, not everyone has to participate, nor is it five taels per person, but two taels, but he is used to asking for more.
As soon as Mr. Gao heard that Mr. Gao was from Tianzi City, he immediately said excitedly: "Hand it! You must pay it! That's a gentleman from Zhongdu. It's normal that it's more expensive."
If my fifth son gets the favor of that gentleman, it is not impossible for him to reach the sky in one step.
As soon as this thought came to his mind, Mr. Gao's breathing became heavy.
"Lao Wu, behave well, if that gentleman treats you differently..."
As if thinking of some beautiful picture, the smile on the old lady's face was distorted.
Shen Guangyao also drifted away, his face flushed and he said: "I know, don't worry, mother."
The opportunity is in front of him, he will definitely seize it!
Lao Mrs. Gao immediately went to get the money, and even got one tael more.
“Lao Wu, mother will give you six taels. With the extra one tael, you can buy some delicious food. Studying is important, and health is also important.”
The heart of a mother is so touching that it touches heaven and earth.
Shen Guangyao felt a little guilty and guilty when he thought of all the money he had spent.
He could only look touched and said: "Mom, please take care of yourself. My son will work hard to win the Jinshi title as soon as possible and earn a life for my mother."
Mr. Gao was so pleased that his teeth showed when he smiled, "My son is really promising!"
-
The next day, early in the morning.
Shen Kun drove Dafang and his family to a carpenter's shop in the county to apprentice.
Shen Guangyao is going back to the academy to accompany him.
Seeing Shen Da and others about to get into the carriage, Shen Guangyao was startled, and said politely but not in a friendly way: "Brother and sister-in-law don't need to see off my younger brother, just let Brother Kun see me off."
Shen Da glanced at him and asked Meng to get into the car, "We are also going to the county."
Shen Guangyao: “…”
Shen Kun looked on from the side, feeling embarrassed for Uncle Wu.
This is...the result of taking yourself too seriously.
Snapped! The sound of the horse whip was raised, and the car drove away from the place.
In the car, Shen Guangyao quickly relieved his embarrassment and asked: "Brother, does sister-in-law have anything to do when she goes to the county? Why are you bringing Brother Jie with you?"
Shen Da didn't hide it, "Your sister-in-law and I took Brother Jie to become a disciple."
Hearing this, Shen Guangyao had an unknown premonition for some reason.
“Which teacher should I worship?”
It was Meng who replied, "Fifth brother should also know that Brother Jie has learned a little bit of carpentry, and now he has an opportunity to learn a serious craft. No, your eldest brother and I will send him to apprentice."
Shen Guangyao felt something was wrong more and more, and his tone became harsh.
“As far as I know, carpentry shops in the county generally do not recruit apprentices. Brother Jie’s opportunity to become a disciple..."
Shen Nian should not mention the matter of selling the drawings out loud, otherwise Mr. Gao would be worried about it.
So, Shen Da and the others had already thought of their words.
“I helped someone inadvertently a few years ago, and the opportunity for Brother Jie to learn a craft was a thank-you gift from that person.”
Shen Guangyao didn't believe it, but he couldn't say it directly, and he was very anxious.
Did those guys in the second room also sell the blueprint?
Just thinking about this, Shen Guangyao felt like he was being roasted on a fire, and a layer of sweat broke out on his back. If the Wang family suffers a loss, they will definitely find him.
It doesn’t matter if he is found in private, but once he is exposed in public as a merchant, then...
His mind was in a mess, Shen Guangyao looked dazed even when he got out of the car.
Watching his figure go away, Meng said, "What's wrong with him?"
Shen Da: “I did something wrong.”
Mengshi pouted, that's all, as long as it doesn't affect the family.
The carriage quickly arrived at the Luo family's carpentry shop.
Shopkeeper Luo had known that the Shen family would arrive today, and had made preparations early in the morning.
Shen Da and his family entered the store, and he glanced at Shen Jie.
I saw that the young man's eyesight was clear, without any hesitation, and he looked smart and capable.
Let’s look at the apprenticeship ceremony that this family brought, a knife of pork, a chicken, and a bag of snacks...
The basket is full and full of sincerity.
I feel a little more satisfied now.
“Here you go, go in first and I’ll introduce you to Shen Jie’s master.”
Shopkeeper Luo personally led the Shen family and spoke very politely, which made people feel comfortable.
Upon seeing this, Shen Da and Meng became more confident in their son's future.
Even if Brother Jie cannot stay in the future, he can still support himself by returning to the village and working as a carpenter.
"I'm sorry to bother you, Shopkeeper Luo. From now on, I'll have to ask you to take more care of my useless son." Shen Da said sincerely.
Shopkeeper Luo had a good impression of the Shen family and immediately said with a smile: "Don't worry, Shen Jie will be fine in the store. There will be a dedicated master to take care of him."
He said and made a joke, "If you are worried, you can always come over and take a look. We are always under supervision."
The Luo family does things with conscience, and will not be like some shops that do not treat their apprentices as human beings and beat and scold them wantonly.
When the sun rose in the east, Shen Jie successfully became his master.
The person I worship is shopkeeper Luo’s brother.
This man has a square face, shrewd eyes, but is a bit unsmiling.
He was sincere to his apprentice and gave him a set of carpentry tools as a gift.
Shen Da and Meng looked at the things, feeling mostly relieved.
The apprenticeship ceremony was over, and the couple left the carpenter's shop.
Shen Da looked back and smiled so much that the wrinkles on his face jumped.
“Brother Jie, study hard and you won’t be able to make a difference in the future, so we can rest assured.”
Meng's nose felt sore, she wiped her eyes lightly, then smiled and said, "Yes, don't worry."
The son has a good future, all thanks to Nian Jie'er. From now on, no one can be better than Nian Jie'er in her place.
No one knows how uncomfortable it has been for her to watch Brother Jie being delayed all these years.
As if he saw what the lady was thinking, Shen Da looked ashamed and said, "...I have worked hard for you these years."
"Why are you talking about this?" Meng saw the distress in his eyes, and the tip of her heart felt like it was burned by something. Suddenly, her face turned red, as if she had returned to her youth.
She has never regretted marrying Shen Da, doing laundry, cooking, and raising children for him.
Thinking of this, Meng's face became hotter and hotter, and he changed the subject uncomfortably.
“Sister Nian has helped my son a lot, let’s go pick out a thank you gift for her...”
Shen laughed and said, "Okay."
Meng had already made up her mind, but she still asked the head of the family for her opinion, "Buy some furs and I'll make her a cloak. What do you think?"
