Chapter 483: A younger brother can’t help his elder sister
Zhou Yujiang waved his hand to refuse. Zhou Banxia wanted to take the book he was holding. No kidding, there were only a few books but the third sister had to hold them.
Without waiting for Zhou Banxia to speak, he directly gave the answer. He would take a break tomorrow. After that, the students could stay in the county school or not. He and his third brother-in-law simply came back to review.
Although self-study in the Academy has a rich learning atmosphere, there are too many people talking, which is not conducive to quiet communication about academic problems. Often there are people around you at the beginning.
Especially when his third brother-in-law picks up his articles, there are so many people, and they all turn into chatty, which takes up a lot of his personal study time.
It would be fine if this was replaced by the usual classroom discussions. With the teacher here, I could listen to the students' opinions, but the self-study time would be messed up.
"...You are said to be a scholar, and you are a scholar, but in fact, there are many people who are degrading to your elegance in private. They roll up their sleeves and slap the table in a hurry."
Zhou Banxia, who followed Dajiang into the study, laughed dumbly, "Is this the case for your brother-in-law too? Didn't you say he was very gentlemanly outside?"
After putting away the books he was holding, Zhou Yujiang was busy putting down the book box he was carrying on his shoulders. When he heard this, he turned his head and looked at the door of the room.
"Just say it. Your brother-in-law won't come here so quickly without wiping his face and changing into casual clothes after he goes out. He won't be rolling up his sleeves and slapping the table if he doesn't agree with his point of view, right?"
"I don't know how to roll up my sleeves, but when I get excited, it's common for me to slap the table. I was so happy to hear that my brother-in-law would slap the table twice in a row even when my wife is around.
Also, my brother-in-law studied in the county and in the village. He was very serious when he was in the village, but he was very good at teasing people when he was in the county. His wife was dumbfounded by him.
For example, the husband who teaches music theory has a brother-in-law who is very good at memorizing music, but when asked to play the piano, the brother-in-law always says that it's not his hands that are not good, but the piano that's not good, and even breaks the strings. ”
Zhou Banxia could imagine that the scene was as funny as possible, but Xuanzi was right about one thing, he was still very skillful with his hands.
When typing code and typing on the keyboard, the speed is so fast that only the shadows of my hands can be seen. I don’t know why, but when I encounter an instrument, my left and right hands are blinded.
"Sister, I'm going back to my room first. I'll see you in front for dinner. You don't have to accompany me there. The lady over there always prepares hot water. I'll see you when it gets dark."
A younger brother cannot help his elder sister.
Zhou Banxia found that she had not said anything yet, but her eldest brother had already answered, "Okay, then walk slowly and let Mai Huang accompany you there."
Zhou Yujiang knew that this was his third sister's last line. He would not rest assured if he did not let Mai Huang send him to live in a cross-hospital hospital, making sure that hot water and soup were prepared.
If he hadn't been interacting with classmates now, and it was definitely inconvenient for him to live here in the east wing, his third sister would still be able to treat him as a child under her nose.
Zhou Yujiang knew that his third sister had always cared about him and Xiaohe. She only asked him to be a scholar in school, and did not force him to become a high official in the future.
In the words of his third sister, life is short and only lasts for a few decades. If you have the reputation of being a scholar, you don't have to kneel down all the time. It's enough to be able to support the family.
But he still wanted to give it a try. At least he had to fight hard to be able to come back, so that he could be worthy of the third sister's hard work. Only by entering an official career could he protect the third sister.
It's a pity that his talent is limited. After all, he is not a weirdo like his third brother-in-law. He can only make up for his shortcomings through hard work. Fortunately, this weirdo is his third brother-in-law.
He is much luckier than Brother Li and the others because he has the third brother-in-law to give him all the help and guidance. Like tonight, the third brother-in-law will start to guide him one-on-one again.
This is a treatment that even outsiders would envy. Currently, he is the only one who can enjoy this treatment, so how can he not give it a try!
"I brought hot water in, washed my face and even drank the hot soup, then went into the study to read." Mai Huang heard her lady ask when she came back. It just so happened that she also had something to tell her young lady, "When I came back, I saw the eldest mistress taking the young master to the main courtyard."
Zhou Banxia guessed that Ma Shan had gone to the main courtyard around this time, but he didn't know if her cousin had gone back. He forgot to ask Dajiang if he had gone to the main courtyard before coming to the backyard.
Fortunately, this question does not necessarily have to be answered by Dajiang. No, Xuanzi has just come back from taking a bath, oh, he even went to lean on the heated bed directly.
"Is it cold?"
"It's okay." Gu Wenxuan replied in an uncertain tone, patting his side and motioning for Zhou Banxia to come up and lie down, "What did you eat for lunch?"
I want to trick her into being lazy again! Zhou Banxia sat sideways on the edge of the kang, "You shouldn't ask me what I had for afternoon tea. It's pretty good. I still don't feel nauseated."
Gu Wenxuan sat up, took Zhou Banxia and knocked her down gently, then smiled and said, "Are you stupid? I don't want to ask you one after another."
"I'll leave you free." Zhou Banxia laughed and moved his body to a more comfortable position of lying on his side. "Did you take Dajiang to say hello to mother before you come back?"
"Yes, it was Dajiang who reminded me first. I was busy going home to find you, and I almost forgot to tell my parents that I was back."
As he said that, Gu Wenxuan touched his wife's face itchingly, "Head, arms, understand?"
Zhou Banxia wordlessly took off his offending hand, raised his head and counted one, two, three, and rested his head on his arm, "Have you seen my cousin?"
I know what my wife wants to hear!
Gu Wenxuan took over the conversation neatly, "Yes, I was just going to tell you that she is at our house, dad is not at home, and she and our mother are just chatting about home affairs."
“Jamie?”
"That's right!" Don't expect to hear those messy things affecting my daughter's prenatal education, Gu Wenxuan recalled seriously, "Before Dajiang and I entered the main hall, we vaguely heard your cousin saying that the big car shop will open in the first half of this year. Business is much better than in the first half of last year
Then my mother said that the second half of this year will definitely be better, and then the two of them talked about autumn grain, and then Dajiang and I arrived, so they had nothing to talk about.
Furthermore, when Dajiang and I were about to come out of the main hall, your cousin asked me if this year’s autumn taxes would be paid before the end of November as in previous years. ”
"Can this change?" Zhou Banxia thought for a while, "It seems that as I grow up, the time of summer tax and autumn tax has not changed every year, but the corvee is uncertain."
very good!
The attention has shifted!
"We are indeed a couple, we think the same thing. When I heard it, I thought your cousin had heard something in the car shop, and asked her like you, can this change?
What do you think she said? Gu Wenxuan said, "You would never have imagined it. Guess what? I'm going to go shopping with you tomorrow?" ”
Zhou Banxia sneered, "Again, you go to a shop and sit there for a long time. Then the wind gets strong and it's getting dark. The kind of strolling where you go home first?"
"Hey, is it possible to walk to two shops and go shopping without going home until dark? Don't go too far, I have already given in to the point where I won't go home until dark."
