Chapter 186: Anxious about Spring Ploughing

When Baili Zheng sent Su Jinhong back, he happened to meet Su Rongrong sending Liu out.

"Aunt Liu, I still have to go to the government office to borrow money. Let's meet there at the end of this afternoon."

"Okay, see you this afternoon!"

Su Jinhong, who was carrying a bookcase on his back, asked casually, "Sister, what are you going to do at the government office this afternoon?"

Su Rongrong signaled him with her eyes to stop talking, then looked at Baili Zheng and said:

“Brother Zheng, it’s great that you’re here. I just told the owner that I want to buy this house.

But I don’t have enough money, so I have to borrow from your family.

Are you going back now? I'll go with you. In that case, Aunt Liu will go to the government office and wait for you."

Baili Zheng has such a tacit understanding with her that he can know what she means with just one look.

"Okay, I'm just dropping Jinhong off on the way back, let's go that way!"

Su Jinhong had no idea what his elder sister was up to, so he didn't get involved and went into the house first.

When Su Rongrong came back, he was still cleaning the yard.

“Jinhong, mother’s condition is not very good.

Qiaoqiao said that it might happen in June or July.

When I came here yesterday, Wei Bo Niang told me that my great aunt and others had arrived.

I want to bring my great aunt and the others over, what do you think?"

Su Jinhong's hand holding the broom trembled. He suppressed the sourness in his nose, blinked hard, and then nodded.

"Big sister, you decide!"

After saying this, he quickened his cleaning speed, preparing to go to the back hall to see his mother after cleaning everything.

Tell her that he will work hard and try to pass the imperial examination this year to show her!

After all, she was hoping that her son would have a bright future, so he didn't want to leave her with any regrets.

Su Rongrong seemed not to notice the pain in his eyes, and continued to speak out her plans one by one.

Finally, he took out the house deed he had just obtained.

While she was talking, Su Jinhong had already cleaned the yard.

After putting down the broom, he looked at Su Rongrong seriously and said:

"Sister, you should leave for the capital city tomorrow.

As for Muyun County, although Brother Zheng has asked Doctor Jiang to come over, I think it would be better for you to go there in person.

Jinhui is our younger brother, so no matter what we do, we have to let him know, especially when it comes to things related to mother.

Also, you can leave the matter of buying the house to me.

My aunt and her family haven't come back yet, so we can stay here for now.

By the time I finish the exam, they should be back soon.

I'll find a house first, and then we can move there.

Anyway, we have a mule cart at home, so traveling is much more convenient.

Mother can move back to our own house in the county town and don’t have to trouble Wei Bo Niang and the others any more.”

After all, his mother's condition was such that no one knew when she would suddenly pass away.

It would be inappropriate if he died in the back court!

"Okay, then I'll give you the money for buying the house first."

Su Rongrong said this and pretended to go back to her room to get the money.

When he came out again, he had two hundred taels in his hand.

“Jinhong, we already have a house in Sujia Village, and now we want to buy one in the county town, but it’s just a special situation, so we’re just staying here temporarily.

Since we don’t have much money at home, let’s buy a bigger house first.

If you can pass the imperial examination and stay in the capital, we will settle down there and then consider buying a big house!"

The two light silver bills seemed heavy to Jinhong.

At the same time, a feeling of powerlessness surged in his heart.

But soon, his gaze became particularly firm.

“Sister, after the exam, I will see where I can go.

Regardless of whether I can pass the examination to become a scholar or not, I have decided to start writing storybooks after June.

I once heard from my teacher that if you write a good storybook, you can make a lot of money.

But when he mentioned this before, he was warning me that people who study should not get involved in too many adulterous things.

However, I am the eldest son in this family.

I will have to get married and have children in the future. I can't rely on you to support me all my life.

So, I want to try it! ”

When Su Jinhong said this, he looked at Su Rongrong nervously, fearing that she would disagree.

After all, the world doesn't like scholars in the family who do things that are considered unproductive in the eyes of everyone.

But he felt that as a man, he had to take responsibility.

The situation was special before, so he just relied on his elder sister for support.

Since I am in good health, I will finish the exam by then.

He felt that no matter whether he could pass the imperial examination or not, he could not be the kind of person who only focused on reading the books of sages and ignored what was happening outside the window!

Su Rongrong likes people who are grateful and also likes people who know how to support themselves.

I was not surprised at all when he said he wanted to write a storybook, nor did I think there was anything shameful about it.

I immediately heard her say: "Okay, you are grown up now, you know what you want to do.

I respect your decision. If you have any difficulties or doubts while writing, you can ask me. "

Her words still stunned Su Jinhong, "Sister, do you understand?"

Could it be that the eldest sister was secretly writing and selling storybooks without their knowledge?

Su Rongrong didn't know what he was thinking, so she nodded and said, "If I know a little bit, I can give you some good ideas.

Okay, if you don’t want to review your lessons now, go see your mother.

Then come back early and rest early at night, because you have to go into the market early tomorrow morning.

After you get in, I will go to Muyun County first, and then to the provincial capital.

There is Manman at home, and there is Qiaoqiao here too.

I have already handed over the tasks of tending the fields to Brother Zheng, and Aunt Wei will also send someone to help later.

Jinhong, I can't help you for now, but I guess you don't need my help.

If Miaomiao's parents come, if it's about marriage, you can make the decision yourself, I have no objection, you know."

Su Jinhong didn't know why the topic of his marriage suddenly came up.

He was a little shy at first, but when he thought about his mother's situation and Liu Miao's age, he agreed frankly.

"Okay, don't worry, big sister, I know what to do!"

*

Su Rongrong went to Muyang Mansion alone. The one who was most reluctant to let her go was not Baili Zheng, nor Su Manman and Su Qiaoqiao and their siblings.

But it was Liu Quan and other people from Sujia Village who were longing to get seeds from her to plant them.

Before she set off, she happened to meet Liu Quan driving a ox cart to send Jinhong into the venue.

When she met people, she didn't have time to sit down and chat.

Instead, he walked over and said in a low voice, "Uncle, Auntie, I have something else to do and need to go to the capital.

If you come to talk about Miaomiao and Jinhong, I have no objection. I have also explained this to Jinhong, so you can just talk to him yourselves.

If it really doesn't work and you feel it's not right to have no elders, then you can wait until I come back from the provincial capital.

This time I went to pick up my aunt and great aunt. "

Because Su Jinhong was taking the county examination, Liu Quan was not in a hurry to discuss his daughter's marriage.

Hearing this, he asked, "When will you come back, Rong girl? The spring ploughing has already begun. When can we plant your seeds?"
