Abandoned Woman Busy Farming
Chapter 1000 Unexpected Past Events
Bai Fu was not a native of Houshan Village. Not long after he got married, he left Maple Leaf Village with his wife and newborn daughter and went to Houshan Village to get engaged.
The reason is very simple, because Bai Fu has wanted to get wind and rain since he was a child, because he is the eldest son in the family and the only child who is studying. His father is a salesman who has made some money, and he wants to turn the family into a farming school. Aristocratic family, so I hope to have an official. It's a pity that Bai Fu stopped here as a scholar all his life.
He felt that he failed in the examination, so the clan did not allow him to be the clan leader. Instead, they made his younger brother, who was good for nothing and could only dig food in the soil, become the clan leader. Because of this, he moved to Maple Leaf Village in anger.
A few years later, when his eldest son was born, he also tried to take the civil examination again, but unfortunately failed again...
However, when he was rushing to take the exam, he made a friend who he thought had the same surname. This person's surname was Bai, and his name was Bai Yuanqing. He was two years younger than him and was very handsome. He once felt a little emotional that although other people's names were very literary, his name was Bai Fu. At a glance, he knew that his father had never read.
The two of them traveled together and stayed in a guest room. Bai Yuanqing was very generous and took the initiative to pay for the room so that Bai Fu wouldn't have to worry about it. Unfortunately, both of them failed the exam later.
After that, the two of them went back home. Probably because of the shock of failing the exam, they didn't have much contact with each other. They only made an appointment to take the exam together three years later.
In the blink of an eye, two years later, Bai Fu's wife Liu became pregnant. He originally thought that his second son was about to be born, but instead he was born a girl who cried like a kitten, and the girl died after only two days.
He didn't feel much regret. After all, the girl couldn't study or do much farm work, and she would have to pay a dowry in the future. But Mrs. Liu was very sad. She cried and complained every day, saying that she didn't eat well when she was pregnant and her family was poor. The child will go away as soon as he comes out.
Bai Fu was also very angry. He knew that with his current situation, he might not be able to pay for the money when he rushes to take the exam, and would have to borrow it from relatives in the clan, licking his face.
Just that night, Bai Yuanqing suddenly came to the door with a small baby wrapped in his arms. It looked like a baby that was only a few days old.
Bai Fu was surprised at that time and wanted to step forward and pat him on the shoulder, but he quickly backed away and said, "Don't come close to me. I have tuberculosis and I don't want you to get sick!"
Bai Fu was startled and hurriedly stopped. Liu came out of the room after hearing the noise and looked at Bai Yuanqing with a defensive look on his face.
"You are still in confinement. Go back to your room and rest. Don't join in the fun here." Bai Fu turned around and said to Mrs. Liu unhappily.
Mrs. Liu reluctantly returned to the room, but her ears were perked up and she listened hard.
"Brother Fu, I'm here to ask you a favor. My wife had a difficult delivery and died after giving birth to the child. And I have tuberculosis. The doctor said that I won't live for more than a month. I don't dare to take care of the child anymore because I'm afraid of it. I gave him the illness. You know that I have some discord with my family, so I had to come to you." Bai Yuanqing said with a look of shame.
Bai Fu was stunned. He was planning to refuse. What was going on at his family? He couldn't support his own family, so how could he raise other people's children?
At that time, Bai Yuanqing took out a stack of banknotes from his arms and put them directly on the table next to him. Bai Fu took a look and saw that they were all banknotes with a face value of one hundred taels!
"I have one thousand taels of silver here. Half of it will be given to Brother Fu and sister-in-law as a reward for your trouble. The other half is money to educate the children. Brother Fu, you are a scholar. I can rest assured that you will train your children. You must let them He is more promising than me. When he can pass the Juren exam, you can tell him his true identity and see if he is willing to recognize his clan members. If he fails to pass the Juren exam, let him be your son for the rest of his life. Don’t let him Know that I exist."
Bai Fu's eyes grew hot when he stared at the banknotes. One thousand taels. A farmer could spend more than 20 taels for a year. With this money, he would not have to worry about taking exams or his children's studies.
"Who are you?" he asked stutteringly. How could an ordinary person come up with such a large amount of money at once?
"Don't ask any more questions. This money is from a legitimate source. Don't worry. You can keep this token. If the child can pass the examination, you can give it to him." Bai Yuanqing glanced at the little child in his arms. , with great reluctance in his eyes, "I hope he will have great ambitions in the future, and his name will be Hong."
As a result, Bai Fu's third child who died at birth became Bai Yihong. No one knew that he was not born to Liu, let alone that Liu's original child had died.
Bai Yuanqing left that night, never appeared again, and never wrote a letter to Bai Fu. Bai Fu felt that he would die of illness soon.
The life of Bai Fu's family suddenly improved a lot because of the sudden money. Bai Fu bought a few more pieces of land. Of course, he wouldn't plant it himself, so he rented it out to others to plant it. The rent could be collected and the family could eat. . After that, he successfully went to take the exam, but unfortunately his knowledge was limited and he still failed to pass the exam.
Five or six years later, his eldest son Bai Yibo is nine years old. He can read a lot of articles and is a smart child. He also began to teach Bai Yihong how to read and write. He didn't know whether it was because his own child was good at everything, or because Bai Yihong was really stupid by nature. He always felt that Bai Yihong was not as good as his son, and he was much slower in reading and literacy.
During this period, he rushed to take the exam several times but failed, and spent a lot of money. So when Bai Yihong was ten years old, he was still reluctant to send him to study in the town.
He would also think of his friend's entrustment, but he always thought that money was tight and he would wait a little longer. Otherwise, the child would be a little dull. It would be better for him to teach him. He might not be able to keep up even if he goes to a private school in the town. Why waste this money? money.
So with procrastination, Bai Yihong gradually stopped teaching him. In addition, Bai Yihong was in good health and was diligent and willing to work. He soon took on a lot of labor at home, and the time for studying was greatly reduced. Later, he began to work in the fields again. When it comes to work, I learned how to farm from the old farmers in the village. Soon I started doing farm work again and had even less time to study.
It would definitely be more cost-effective to grow the land yourself than to rent it out. Naturally, he would not stop Bai Yihong from farming. In the following decades, he would even treat Bai Yihong like an ox and a horse.
As time passed, he got used to it, and some of the worries he had in his heart disappeared. As Liu said, it is the greatest kindness you can do to him to raise him, and he should not have any requirements.
Later, Bai Yibo finally passed the exam and Bai Fu was so happy that he focused all his attention on his son, not even caring about Bai Yihong's situation. When Bai Yibo got married, in order to find him a family in the town with good conditions, Bai Fu also sold the tokens given by Bai Yuanqing to raise enough betrothal gifts for his son.
