Lu family.
"Father, I want to eat cakes." Lu Songshi yelled.
Lu An rubbed Lu Songshi's head and said, "Don't worry, didn't you bring this for you? Eat it quickly."
Lu Songshi said a little depressed: "Father, all my friends have gone to play with Chen Xiaocai, and they won't play with me anymore. They also ate delicious gnocchi from Chen Xiaocai's place before."
Hearing Lu Songshi's words, Lu An felt vaguely uncomfortable. He hadn't paid much attention to Lu Lin. In his impression, this nephew's head was not very bright, and he looked poor and helpless.
Lu An didn't expect that when his nephew got married, things would turn around instead.
Lu An works in the city, and knows that Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin can enter and leave the Fortune Restaurant freely, and have business contacts with the owner of the restaurant. Running over to the Wang Restaurant, they should have made a lot of money.
Lu Songshi was gnawing on a sweet cake, and Lu Tong suddenly came over, "Songshi, what are you eating! Is it the champion cake?"
Seeing Lu Tong approaching, Lu Songshi subconsciously put his hands behind his back.
Among all the children and grandchildren, the old lady was most interested in Lu Chengyu, the eldest grandson who wanted to be named on the gold list. The old lady was also good to Lu Songshi, but compared to Lu Chengyu, the eldest grandson, she was much worse.
Now that Lu Chengyu is about to take a big exam, everything must be focused on Lu Chengyu.
Recently, the old lady has changed her ways to make delicious food for Lu Chengyu, such as red dates, longan and lotus seed sweet soup, candy cakes from restaurants, champion wine... The things I make by myself are good, but the things from restaurants are not cheap!
Lu Chengyu asked for whatever he wanted, and the rest of the family could only live on tight terms.
Lu Songshi hadn't seen meat for a few days, and when he saw Lu Chengyu's delicious food, he started to make a fuss. Lin Xiuer was also a little upset, but Lu Chengyu was about to take the big exam, so she could only persuade her son.
Lu Songshi was also brought up pampered, not very obedient, one day he smelled the aroma, sneaked to the kitchen, saw the chicken soup in the pot, and secretly drank a bowl.
Tang Shi found that the chicken soup was less, so he slapped Lu Songshi angrily.
Lu Songshi was different from Lu Lin. After being beaten, he quarreled loudly. After hearing the news, Mrs. Lin and Mrs. Tang who came over had an argument and were persuaded by the old lady and the old man.
Although the old lady attached great importance to Lu Chengyu, she still had a bit of affection for her youngest son, so she scolded Tang Shi a few words, and Tang Shi was scolded, so she restrained herself a little.
After all, Lu An felt sorry for his son, and after receiving his wages, he would secretly buy some delicious food for his son from time to time.
Lu An looked at Lu Tong who suddenly appeared at the door, his expression changed.
Lu Tong didn't knock on the door, but broke in suddenly, and Lu An didn't have time to put away his things.
Lu Tong looked at the cakes on the table and said, "Fourth Uncle, this is for my brother, I'll bring it to him."
Lu Songshi didn't eat a few bites, so he asked Lu Tong to take away the cakes, looking like he was about to cry. In fact, after Lu Tong left, Lu Songshi really cried.
Seeing his son crying out of breath, Lu An felt a little bit more dissatisfied with Lu Tong.
Lin Xiu'er who rushed back heard the whole story, her face was a little ugly.
Lin Xiu'er said unhappily: "This Tang family's tail is going to go up to the sky now. It seems that Cheng Yu is already the champion, and Lu Tong is not good either." The deputy lady is acting like a fanatic, wishing to be an official's wife all day long, and now she is getting bigger and bigger. If she doesn't get married, she will probably lose money.
Lu An sighed, and said: "Be patient, if Lu Chengyu is admitted as a scholar and becomes a high-ranking official in the future, we will be relatives of the official."
Lin Xiu'er frowned, if it wasn't for this, why would she endure the boss's family all the time! Tang Shi has been going too far recently.
"Then Cheng Yu must be able to become a high official!" Lin Xiuer said sullenly.
Lu An worked in the town, and half of the money was handed over to the two elderly people in the family, and most of the money handed in was given to Lu Chengyu for Shu Xiu.
Lin Xiuer rubbed Lu Songshi's head. Before, Lu Lin's family was still there, and Lin Xiuer could still find a balance with Lu Lin's family. Now that the second child's family is extinct, Lin Xiuer's work has become more and more, Lin Xiuer is a little bit uncomfortable. Satisfied.
Recently, Lu Chengyu was going to take a big exam, and the two old people in the family attached great importance to it, almost to the point where they would give stars if they wanted them.
Tang made an excuse to take care of Lu Chengyu and left many things to Lin Xiuer. Recently, Lin Xiuer did the laundry for the whole family. Lin Xiuer was in a terrible mood because she had to wash everyone's clothes by herself.
Lu An squinted his eyes and said, "Let's wait until the spring test is over."
Lin Xiu'er sighed and said, "That's the only way to go."
Lu Chengyu paid three taels of tax money last year. Lin Xiuer reckoned that this year, regardless of whether she won the exam or not, she would probably marry a wife. It's a good thing if she can pass the exam this time. If she doesn't pass the exam, Tang will probably not be proud However, Lin Xiuer's mood was very complicated. She not only hoped that Tang's family would suffer, but also hoped that after Lu Chengyu passed the exam, she could take care of her family.
If you really pass the exam, you can exempt 20 acres of tax, and you can save a lot of money. At that time, your family's life should be better.
Lu An took a deep breath and said, "I heard that it's not easy for a scholar to pass the exam. I hope he can pass the exam."
The people in the countryside knew little about the spring exam, but Lu An worked in the town and had more contact with things, so he knew more about the talent test than the villagers.
