C5 Third Brother

It was not the fault of his family that they had any objections. After all, even if they couldn't eat their fill, they still had to go to school? After going to school, the family thought that they were lacking a labourer, but the food was still the same.

Yu's was a person who knew how to plan, she was in charge of this entire family. She thought about how these children had not been able to read for all these years, and had even read their entire families empty.

But all these years, those people in the village who were as old as her, Fang Changliu, and were even younger than her, had all married wives. I can't take out that betrothal gift from home.

After the spring cold passed, when it was time to sow the seeds, Fang Changliu would be eighteen years old, and would be nineteen years old. She became more and more anxious, so he discussed with the old man, not letting the children go to school, and saved two taels of silver a year's tuition fee.

After hearing Yu's's analysis, the old man knew that what she said was reasonable, so he nodded his head in agreement. That was why he said that Fang Yizhi was not allowed to go to school.

Even though there was a modern soul living in her body, she could not change it into money. On the other hand, the previous owner had been foolish, and with just a few words, he had stripped himself of all his belongings.

After coming to the Fang family, the old gramps knew about this matter and praised her for having self-respect, a spirit of a scholar, and giving face to the Fang family's parents. However, in reality, other than the old gramps, most of the people in the family disagreed with her.

"Elder sister?" Seeing that Fang Ruxiu had closed her eyes and did not speak, Fang Yizhi called out to her.

"Ah?" "Third brother, you can't go to school this year, and elder sister has no other choice. You know the family's conditions, it's all because of elder sister's stupidity. If I knew earlier, no matter how much the Gu family humiliated me, I would have held on to those valuable fellows." Fang Ru Xiu said guiltily.

Fang Yizhi originally thought that she was too stupid, but after hearing her own words, he comforted her: "Elder sister, you did right. Grandfather has even praised you for giving the Fang Family face.

"Hehe, let me tell you the truth. Actually, I'm neither regretful nor regretful about this matter, but I'm regretting it because I didn't know that our family was so poor. If I knew earlier, I would have accepted it. But I don't regret it, because I believe that I will be able to make more money in the future. "

Fang Ruxiu smiled, then looked Fang Yizhi in the eyes and said seriously, "Third brother, if you don't go to school this year, you should review your previous studies at home. Also, elder sister will teach you a little more. Don't worry, next year, I will definitely let you go to the academy. "

"Really?" These words from Fang Ruxiu gave Fang Yizhi a glimmer of hope.

"Of course it's true." Fang Ruxiu reached out and rubbed Fang Yicheng's head, saying, "When has big sister ever lied to you two?"

"Nope." Fang Yizhi replied: "I didn't know you before."

"Ugh ?" Fang Ruxiu immediately choked, how could she please these radishes? But soon, she calmed herself and said, "It doesn't matter. From now on, I will be your sister. You all have to listen to me. I promise that next year, I will let third brother read and fourth brother have new clothes for you to wear."

"Yes, I believe you, sister." Fang Yizhi looked at Mo Xue's serious expression and nodded seriously.

"Does the Little Four want to listen to what big sister says?" As Fang Ruyi spoke, she reached her hand inside Fang Yicheng's clothes to tickle him. He immediately giggled.

"Listen, listen to sister." After Fang Ruxiu stopped, Fang Yicheng said with his childish voice.

"Mhmm, that's good. You have to behave." She wanted to pinch Fang Yicheng's face, but Fang Yicheng's skin was so chapped that it looked a little pitiful.

When Fang Yizheng returned with a small cloth bag, he saw Fang Ru Xiu and her two younger brothers laughing. He felt that it was a little strange, so he walked over and asked, "Little sister, what are you doing?"

"Big Brother, you're back?" We're talking about reading straight away. " Fang Ruxiu smiled and said, "Big brother, do you know how to make it to the top?"

"Ugh ?" This time, it was Fang Yizheng's turn to be speechless. He scratched his head and said: "I only know how to work hard and eat my fill. As for how to earn money, I really don't know."

"Hehe, so we're talking about how to earn money. I said that I want the two of them to listen to me, then I'll earn a lot of money this year and go straight to school to buy new clothes for Yi Cheng." Fang Ru Xiu said.

"Oh, little sister, your ambition is good, and little sister, you know a lot, so big brother will listen to you in the future." Fang Yizheng laughed, his smile a little simple and honest, Fang Ruyi did not expect him to say that, she thought he would laugh at his.

"Here, here is your egg." Fang Yizheng handed over the small cloth bag and said: "I walked around the mountain for a long time, and only then did I find a nest of bird eggs. But luckily, my luck is not bad, there are a few inside, but I only took half of it, and there are still some remaining."

Fang Ruxiu received the cloth bag and felt that it was very light. She opened it and saw two small bird eggs lying inside. At that moment, his patched clothes looked a little dirty, probably because he had gotten them when she was digging for bird's eggs. She did not expect this youth to be quite kind, with an environmental awareness, and even knew how to leave a seed for a bird.

"Big brother, lower your head a bit." Fang Ru Xiu called out.

"What is it?" Fang Yizheng said as he lowered his head.

Fang Ruxiu took a dried up leaf from Fang Yizheng's head and said: "Big brother, you have a leaf stuck on your hair."

"Oh." Fang Yizheng said hesitantly: "Thank you, sister."

"It's just a small matter. I should be thanking you, Big Brother." Fang Ruxiu shook the small cloth bag in her hand and said, "We only have four people here, but two bird eggs isn't enough for us. How about we raise them? Once they hatch into birds, I'll have a pet."

"No need, it's enough for you to eat, big sister." Fang Yizhi immediately said: "Elder sister, you are a patient, you should eat more."

Fang Yizheng on the other hand, pulled at Fang Yizhi's sleeves. He knew that the young ladies all liked to raise pets, and he heard that their younger sisters had also raised pets before, but after coming to his house, they no longer had that condition. Today, he felt that this little sister had changed a lot. Now that she was sick, her entire body was covered in thorns, making her look much softer and more lively. Fang Yizheng liked this kind of little sister, and now that it was rare for her to be willing, he naturally followed everything else.

"Whatever you want, little sister. When the weather gets warmer, I'll go and get more eggs for my little sister. At that time, everyone will have something to eat." My Milk is still hatching the chickens, you just have to put them in the chicken nest. If you are lucky and hatch, Big Brother will go and catch the worms for you two birds, so they won't starve. "

"En, thank you, Big Bro. But I will have to see if these two eggs can hatch." As Fang Ru Xiu spoke, she took out an egg from her bag and looked at the dim yellow sunlight outside.

"Little sister, do you know if this egg can hatch?" Fang Yizheng was surprised to see her actions.

"Of course I will. Other than being unable to do farm work, sister, I have many other skills." As Fang Ru Xiu said this, she continued to hold the two bird eggs to the light to see if there was any small black dot inside. Fang Yicheng saw that her movements were also grabbing onto her hands to see.

"Do you see that, Little Four? Both eggs have a small black dot here, meaning that they can hatch." Fang Ru Xiu instructed Fang Yicheng.

Fang Yicheng opened his eyes wide, then nodded and said: "I see it." As he spoke, he extended his small hand to indicate a small black dot.

"En, Little Four is really smart." Fang Ruxiu had only casually taught him that, but she hadn't expected him to be so smart.

"Then take it out and put it in my chicken coop." Fang Yizheng said as he extended his hand out to receive it.

"Big brother, if we put them in the chicken nest, I'm worried that the hen might step on their thin shells and shatter them." Fang Ru Xiu said.

"Then what should we do?" Fang Yizheng asked: "Then why not eat it?"

"Big brother, you don't have to worry. Other than watching, little sister knows how to hatch. Leave these two eggs here, I'll try to hatch it." Fang Ruxiu smiled and put the egg back into the bag.

Fang Yizheng had yet to speak, but a girl's clear laughter came from within the courtyard. She mocked, "Fang Ruxiu, you're really a sparrow, you even know how to hatch small birds."

Fang Ruxiu turned her head and saw a girl wearing a red cotton-padded jacket with a ponytail laughing at her. She immediately recognized that this was her Third Uncle's daughter, Fang Yiyun. Amongst all of the children, the one Yu's disliked the most was his family's child, and out of all of the wives, the one Yu's disliked the most was Fang Yiyun's mother, Liu Fengxiang.

This Fang Yiyun would usually be submissive in front of the Yu's, and in front of her elder cousin Fang Yizhi, he did not dare to say anything. But now, he was actually trying to bully her.

However, Fang Ruyi's body contained the soul of an adult, so she didn't care about these words at all. However, Fang Yizheng and Fang Yizhi, who were standing at the side, were a little unhappy. However, they were boys, so it was not good to fuss about it with Fang Yiyun.

"Don't worry, big brother. Third brother, I don't care. I'm going to ignore her." Fang Ruzhu caressed Fang Yicheng's head and said: "Little Four, sometimes dogs bark at you, but you can't bark at dogs, right?"

"Yes." Fang Yicheng nodded his head heavily, and then, Fang Rumian smiled. What a clever child.
