Chapter 655: Happiness is Shared, Not Solely Kept to Oneself
th by Brother Yi before, and we pooled our money to have it crafted at a silversmith’s shop. What do you think”Good sound is something that belongs to a dog, and it's also a gift sent by the brothers...."How many days did Zhang the Divine Physician give for memorization and practice this time" Old Lady Li knocked on the bronze man, her eyes full of concern.
Jia Yin said: "Half a month! Fortunately, Grandpa Zhang is working on a new medicine, otherwise I'm afraid he would only give me five days..."
Tao Hongying had always wanted to be a strict mother, so she said, "Good teachers produce outstanding disciples. Just follow Zhang Shenyi's arrangements. With winter approaching and no work at home or outside, you should stay home and practice diligently."
Jia Yin's eyes rolled, then she ran to the backyard and brought back a few books.
Besides Li Laotai, almost everyone from Tao Hongying to Li Laoer and Wenjuan had been given a copy by him/her.
Jia Yin said with a smile, "This is a handwritten copy of the map from Houfu. I spent several nights copying it."
"Mother, second uncle and aunt, you must memorize this. When you go out, it will be very useful."
"Whenever I have free time, I'll continue copying it. When it's done, I'll give copies to my uncle and brothers, as well as Uncle Three, Auntie Three, and Father!"
Tao Hongying and others crumpled the thick handwritten notebooks in their hands, flipping through them simply. Inside, there were densely packed names....
They looked at each other, both starting to get headaches.
This is so thick, so complex, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to memorize it all before the year ends...
Jia Yin covered her mouth and giggled secretly.
It's more fun to have fun with others than alone!
If we're going to strive for improvement, let's do it as a whole family. We can supervise and support each other, making twice the progress with half the effort...
Li Laotai knew her granddaughter's little thoughts. She tapped her forehead and then smiled.
In a blink of an eye, another five or six days passed. The Marquis went to the shipyard military camp to take charge, and Li Lao Si and Li Yong got the chance to go home and have a look.
By the time they arrived home, it was already dark.
This year, the first snowfall came much later than usual. They got to it before anyone else.
When entering, he looked just like a snowman.
Zheng Feng and Zheng He heard the noise and came out to help tie the horse.
Li Lao Si found his home unusually quiet, so he asked, "Have all the family members gone to the city"
Zheng He then explained, "No, Fourth Master, the young masters are all diligently studying their scriptures!"
Li Laosi and Li Yong were completely baffled. When they got to the main hall, they saw that almost everyone in the family had a book in hand, reading silently to themselves.
Even the oil lamps were two more than usual, illuminating the room brightly.
Only Li Laotai was smiling and doing needlework, and another woman named Jia Yin was threading needles against a copper figurine.
"Mother, we're back!" Li Lao Si shouted, which caused everyone in the house to look over and quickly ushered them into the house to sit down.
Tao Hongying held a book and said, "How did you come back late at night Luckily, there's still a pot of meat soup at home. I'll cook some hot noodles for you guys, and then make some pancakes."
"Big Yong should finish his meal and then go back, so that Hui-niang doesn't have to relight the fire!"
After saying that, she left the house. As she stepped over the threshold, she couldn't help but glance at two books and muttered, "This old He family is too prolific! Seven children, and they just keep having more! It's really a headache!"
Li Laosi was even more puzzled and asked his mother to find out what was going on.
He and Li Yong burst into laughter, thinking that their family members at home must be having an easy time. It turned out they weren't having it easy either...
After dinner, Li Yong hurried home.
Li Laosi and his daughter-in-law returned to the side room, originally wanting to have some fun, but he was handed a book directly.
"I've been memorizing for several days, the first thirty pages. You can quiz me. My daughter will be checking tomorrow, if I can't recite it, she'll definitely make fun of me."
Tao Hongying is both worrisome and amusing. She used to always urge her daughter to study diligently, but now look at her!
Li Laosi was unable to, so he could only brace himself and help his daughter-in-law improve.
He was not disengaged. Though he took exams for his daughter-in-law, he himself became increasingly focused, muttering to himself occasionally.
"Wow, He Qiong is actually Zhao Hong's cousin! No wonder they always hang out together..."
He now manages those young master soldiers, training them daily and arranging household affairs.
After so much adjustment, it's finally a lot better than before.
Now, looking back at this booklet, many seemingly insignificant things from his daily life suddenly became clear to him. His young soldiers under his command also gained a deeper understanding of the situation.
By the time he finished reading, he still wanted to say a few words to his wife, but Tao Hongying had already fallen asleep.
The next morning, Li Lao Si took the initiative to ask his daughter for two picture books and joined the team memorizing them.
When Li Yong came over, he was handed a book.
Li Yong still wanted to shirk his responsibilities, after all, if he liked reading, he wouldn't have had a falling out with his family.
Unfortunately, he also had a good wife.
Hui Niang turned into a "supervisor," not only overseeing his fluent recitation but also reciting along with him.
Fortunately, Li Yong grew up in the city and Hui's family was also from an official background. They both had some foundation, so it was easier for them to memorize it.
When the Jia family sent out invitations, saying that Mrs. Jia Er was bringing Baozhu to visit, the Li family only then realized they had been diligently studying for half a month…
Jia Yin hurried to the city for a while, then brought back some food from Baiyun.
The next day, Jia's second wife and her daughter came to visit with a package.
Because the weather was cold, Mistress Wen didn't have them run back and forth. They all went straight to Li's family home.
As soon as Baozhu heard the beautiful voice, she grabbed her hand tightly and wouldn't let go, complaining endlessly.
"Jia Yin sister, you don't want Bao Zhu anymore! Woo woo, last time you said we were the best of friends, and you just ignore me for so long!"
Jia Yin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this. It was true that since the last time her shop opened, she hadn't seen this foodie again.
Although I had been to the shop before, I hadn't met this girl. Later, with my studies becoming increasingly demanding, I simply couldn't keep up with it anymore.
She quickly apologized and coaxed Baozhu, "I've been so busy lately, I was planning to visit you too, but I didn't expect you to come first. In a little while, I'll take you to the warm room and treat you to some delicious food!"
"Humph, that's better!" Baozhu immediately brightened up when she heard there was good food.
Everyone looked at the two girls, both plump and fair, clean and adorable.
At this moment, they sat together, chattering like little adults, and couldn't help but laugh.
Then Mrs. Jia Er said, “Our little Baozhu has been chattering in my ears for days now, I can't take it anymore! That’s why I brought her here to bother you.”
"What's the matter with you That's a strange thing to say! Everyone at home is hoping you'll visit often!" Li Laotai pulled her hand and said, "What's your mother-in-law doing at home How is she"
Jia Erfuren hurriedly responded one by one, then opened the package and took out a handkerchief, smiling: "This was chosen by my mother, and the embroiderer at home made it. She specially instructed me to bring it. She said that the weather is getting colder, so she told Old Madam to wear it to protect her head from catching a cold."
Lao Li took it and carefully looked through it, praising it several times. Finally, she said, "Our family doesn't have such good craftsmanship, but our family just had a convoy come back from the south with some citrus fruits. When you leave, take a basket and ask your mother-in-law to try some fresh ones."
"Very well, then. I won't be polite. It's cold today, and we have a brazier burning at home. My mother always says her throat gets dry and itchy this time of year. A few oranges would be just the thing to moisten it up."
Jia Erfu amused the old lady with laughter, and then gave Wenjuan and Wen Fu each a set of children's clothes. Even Jia Yin received a white fox fur waistcoat.
Everyone thanked her, and the laughter grew even louder.
寶珠 couldn't sit still, Jia Yin greeted her and led her to the warm room in the back.
The rest of the people in the house spread out the table, snacked on some treats and shelled peanuts, chatting idly.
Jia Erfu glanced at the medical book on the kang, her heart skipped a beat...
