"So it's like that, then what did you learn in the academy?" Faang Ruxiu asked.

"But to learn the Three Character Classic, the Thousand Character Classic, and so on." Faang Yizhi answered.

"Oh, these sisters have all learned it before. If you don't have any, feel free to ask me." Faang Ruxiu said, "There have been a lot of things happening at home recently. Are you sure it hasn't affected your studies? I haven't seen you go through any of the lessons the teacher taught. "

"Ugh …" Hearing Faang Ruxiu's words, Faang Yizhi scratched his head in embarrassment and then didn't say anything.

"Third brother, don't forget this principle. Big sister wants you to take the exam this year to bring honor to our family." Faang Ruxiu said.

"Elder sister, it's not so easy for a scholar to take the exam. Besides, I might not even be able to go to school this year." After saying that, Faang Yizhi's eyes turned red. He was a bookworm, but he knew the situation in his family. His grandparents would never let him learn how to read again.

"What is this?" Faang Ruxiu asked, "But we don't have any money at home?"

Faang Yizhi did not say anything, but he just pursed his lips and nodded his head. When his grandpa told his father that Nian wouldn't let him go to school that day, he was also listening on the side. At that time, he was very relaxed and calm, but he was actually reluctant to leave.

Faang Ruxiu closed her eyes and recalled the Fang family's conditions. The Fang family had a large population, and the only people who were able to stand up were the Wu brothers and their daughter.

Faang Changfu was the second oldest at home, above him was his eldest brother, Faang Changgui, and below him were his three younger brothers, Third Brother Faang Changgeng, Fourth Brother Faang Changheng, and Fifth Brother Faang Changliu. As for his younger sister Faang Changhui, she was betrothed ten to a family in town ten years ago, her husband's name was Xu Jiaqi.

Apart from Faang Changliu who has yet to be married, all of Sun's brothers have already been married, and they each have their own children. Among them, uncle Zhou and Zhou had three children, third uncle Faang Changgeng had three children, and Fourth Uncle and Wu Tie had three children. Including Faang Ruxiu's own family, there were a total of thirteen children.

These words were not wrong at all. The Fang family's old patriarch had initially been happy for the prosperity of his family's disciples, but now he was worried about so many children. After all, there was still a child who hadn't gotten married yet, and the eldest grandson and second grandson should get married soon after. However, he was still alright since the habits of a scholar made him naturally open-minded, but Lady Yu, who was by his side, thought about this everyday.

The old man had always prided himself on being a scholar. In Faang Changfu's generation, he had read a few books to them. However, in this generation, not a single person could read a single book.

When it came to his grandchildren, he wanted to study for them as usual, but his family was long gone. The current school fees were all earned from selling some grains during the harvest. The children in the long room had asked him not to go to school three years ago, and Faang Yizhi also asked not to go to school a year ago. Now, only Faang Yizhi from the second room was studying, which made everyone in the family have their own opinions.
