Lu Lin's life is as usual, but a few scholars in the village ushered in a major event - the spring exam.

During this period of time, the topic of many people in the village has turned to the spring test.

There are people in my family who go to school. Whatever they do recently, they will try their best to keep quiet, just to provide a good learning environment for the family who are preparing for the big exam.

The people in the village were affected by this trend, and the whole village was talking about reading for a while.

"Brother Lin, many people go to the Lu family to propose marriage recently." Chen xiaocaidao.

Lu Lin glanced at Chen Xiaocai and said, "who can I propose marriage to?"

"Lu Tong! There are also people who propose marriage to Lu Chengyu. However, Tang said that Lu Chengyu should concentrate on preparing for the exam and should not be distracted by it. Therefore, most of them propose marriage to Lu Tong. Everyone says that Lu Chengyu's vision is very high, and the women in the village can't look up to her. After she becomes a scholar, she should marry the eldest lady in the town. "

Lu Lin takes a look at Chen Xiaocai and thinks to himself: Chen Xiaocai has changed a lot. Before, he looked very dull. Recently, he seems more cheerful. He should be playing with those children in the village.

"What did Zhang Dahu tell you?" Lu asked.

"Big tiger said, there are others."

Lu Lin looked at Chen Xiaocai and said with a smile, "you are very popular."

Chen Xiaocai scratched his head and said with a blush, "no, neither."

In fact, he doesn't understand very well. Before, children of the same age in the village were hiding from him. Now many people are willing to play with him. If there is anything, they will tell him. Of course, they may just look at the face of coppers and dumplings.

Zhang Dahu and others never forget a meal of rice dumplings at his home. They pester him all the time and ask him when he will have a job. If he has a job, he can not have a copper medal. However, they have to have a good meal. However, there are not many wild fruits in the forest recently, and Chen Xiaocai has not received the task from Lu Lin, so he can't say.

"I ate glutinous rice dumplings last time, which made those guys greedy."

Chen Xiaomi in an onlooker turned his lips, stuffy way: "those boys, may eat."

Three big bowls of dumplings were left for him. If he hadn't eaten a little in advance, he would have lost everything.

Most of the people in the village spend a lot of time all year round. The price of glutinous rice is expensive. It's a luxury for many people to have a meal. Chen Xiaomi has made a lot of money recently, and he is not very distressed.

"Since someone has proposed marriage, has Lu Tong decided to come?" Lu Lin asked curiously.

Chen Xiaocai shook his head and said, "no, the Lu family asked for a dowry of twenty Liang silver, which scared many people back."

"Twenty taels of silver!" Lu Lin rolled his eyes and muttered with interest.

Lu Lin thought to himself: Previous betrothal gifts have crushed many people. The betrothal gifts here also make people collapse! According to Tang's interest, I'm afraid I won't let Lu Tong take many dowries back.

Chen Xiaocai blinked and said, "twenty Liang silver. Many people in the village are scared back."

The living standard of the Chen family has improved a lot during this period. However, Chen Xiaocai doesn't know much about the fact that Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi have made a lot of money selling wine and jam. His impression of silver is still a few years ago. Twenty taels of silver is still a lot of money for Chen Xiaocai.

"Twenty Liang!" Chen Xiaomi blinked.

At the beginning, he bought Lu Lin only for ten liang of silver. With Lu Tong's money, I can buy two lulins.

Lu Lin looks at Chen Xiaomi and smiles.

"With such a high price of betrothal gifts, Tang is not afraid to turn Lu Tong into an old girl." Chen Xiaomi couldn't help shaking his head.

"Don't worry, don't worry." Lu Lin shrugged.

Tang should be full of confidence in Lu Chengyu. If Lu Chengyu really becomes a scholar, then Lu Tong's marriage is nothing. However, if Lu Chengyu fails this time, it will be more troublesome. Lu Tong's age is already in danger here. If you wait any longer, you should pay taxes.

In this place, gossip can kill people. The conditions of the Lu family are still very good. With so much land in the family, three Liang silver may be crowded for the Lu family. However, if they can't get married and pay taxes, they will easily be laughed at.

Chen Xiaocai tilted his head and said, "it's said that many people in the village like Lu Tong. Lu Tong grows well."

According to Lu's chin, it depends on whether the country girls are well dressed.

Lu's family environment is OK. Lu Tong always wears decent clothes. Other girls in the village have to work in the fields and their skin is black. Lu Tong has been carrying young ladies' pies for a long time. Her skin is still well maintained. In this way, compared with girls of the same age in the countryside, Lu Tong's color is really good.

When people in the countryside get married, they pay more attention to the girl's temper and character. Whether they can work and whether they are good-looking or not is secondary. However, young children should all like good colors. If their parents love young children, they will always help to plan. However, twenty Liang silver is still higher for villagers, which is a great burden for many villagers."Forget it, it's something Tang should worry about. It's nothing to do with us." Lulin road.

Chen Xiaocai nodded and said, "that's right."

……

In the spring, a hundred wastes are waiting to be revived, and farmers are busy with farming. Chen Xiaomi and Lu Lin have no land, so they can only rush into the mountains.

Although there is no land, Chen Xiaocai has no leisure. He takes wheat, digs wild vegetables, digs insects and feeds chickens and geese.

The chickens and geese at home have already begun to lay eggs. Apart from what they eat every day, there are still leftovers.

Looking at Chen Xiaocai's hard work, Lu Lin occasionally feels sorry, but only occasionally.

Chen Xiaomi hunts in the mountains from time to time, and there is no shortage of meat at home. Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi grow some vegetables and radishes in front of and behind the house, which can solve almost half of the problem of food ration.

Lu Lin and Chen Xiaomi drove the mule cart to the city.

Shopkeeper Wang was very happy to see them. Every time he sold a bottle of jam, he got 200 Wen into his pocket. This can be regarded as a no cost business. Shopkeeper Wang has made a lot of money in recent years. The share is secondary. What's more important is that the jam business drives the store's business.

"This is the last batch of jam. Twenty bottles in all." Lu rongdao. "And here are forty jars of wine."

Shopkeeper Wang looked at the wine and said, "it's all second-class wine."

Lu Rong said apologetically: "because the raw materials of the first kind of wine are precious, they are almost gone now."

Shopkeeper Wang nodded to show his understanding. With 40 jars of sweet potato wine and jam, shopkeeper Wang paid Lu Lin 32 liang of silver.

"Brother Lu, I haven't made a lot of money recently!" Shopkeeper Wang said with a smile.

Lu Lin gave a wry smile and said, "where can I compare with shopkeeper Wang! This shop is full of customers. Jam makes money, but the cost is also very high. Moreover, sometimes I dare not do too much. If I put it for a long time, it will break down all of a sudden. "

Shopkeeper Wang couldn't deny it with a smile and said: "brother Lu, if there is anything good in the future, please remember to send it to me!"

"Sure, sure."

Lu Lin laughed and said: "shopkeeper, I think the business in the shop is very good! Everybody's buying cakes? "

Shopkeeper Wang laughed and said, "it's the number one cake. Isn't it going to have a spring test? Everyone wants to get a good start. "

Lu Lin nodded and said, "I see!"

Lu Linxin thought: this imperial examination is really a big event in ancient times! At this time of year, there are many things related to scientific research everywhere.

However, the same is true in previous lives. In the time of college entrance examination, many places are not open to traffic, and many parents will go to temples to burn incense and worship Buddha for their children.

"Brother Lu, do you want to take some back?"

Lu Lin rolled his eyes, and there was no one in his family to take the exam. It didn't seem to be of any use to eat it. However, this number one cake seems to be delicious. If you buy some for wheat, wheat will be happy. The two kids have been working hard recently.

Lu Lin followed shopkeeper Wang's advice and packed some cakes back.

After leaving the restaurant, Lu Lin went to the street to buy steamed buns and steamed buns

……

On the way back, Chen Xiaomi looked at Lu Lin and said, "is this sweet potato almost gone?"

Lu Lin nodded and said, "yes." Originally, the snack bar was almost full of sweet potatoes. However, with the sweet potatoes being continuously brewed into sweet potato wine, the sweet potatoes in the snack bar were rapidly consumed, and now there is only a sporadic pile left.

"But it should be about the same." More than 300 jars of sweet potato wine have been sold in succession.

There are almost three hundred taels of silver in the pottery pot of the canteen.

"Isn't the original wine much less?" Asked Chen Xiaomi.

Lu Lin nodded and said, "it's almost a quarter less." This case by case to take out the wine to sell, wine down is also very fast.

Chen Xiaomi blinked and said, "Why are there so many wines, but not so many spicy bars?"

Lu Lin said helplessly: "because when we visit relatives and friends in that place, we send wine instead of spicy sticks."

Sitting on the mule cart, Chen Xiaomi shook his legs and said, "people there are really strange. I think it's better to send spicy sticks."

Lu Lin His daughter-in-law's idea of sending spicy noodles is really creative!

"How much silver is there now?" Asked Chen Xiaomi. Chen Xiaomi has rarely asked about the pots since he gave them to Lu Lin for safekeeping. When he wants to know how much silver there is in the pots, he asks Lu Lin for help.

"About three hundred and twelve." Lulin road.

Chen Xiaomi stares big eye, way: "so much!" Chen Xiaomi said in secret: Unfortunately, no one sells land now. Otherwise, with so much money, he can buy dozens of mu of land and become a landlord. However, if he really bought the land, it would be too ostentatious.

Chen Xiaomi is very clear that many people in the village know that he has made money, but they don't know exactly how much money he has made.As soon as Lulin and Chen Xiaomi come back, Chen wheat sticks to Lulin.

Every time Lu Lin goes out, he comes back with something to eat for Chen Mai and Xiaocai. When Chen Mai sees Lu Lin, it's like seeing something to eat.

Lu Lin handed the sugar cake to Chen Mai. Chen Mai whined and chewed a big piece. Lu Lin rolled his eyes and said in secret: This is the number one cake. This way of eating wheat is a little fierce! However, no matter the number one cake or the list eye cake, they are all used for eating.
