Chapter 172 odd
The storm of Tao Weike's failure in the second room of the Tao family passed, and everyone's mood quickly calmed down.
Tao Yongcheng is concerned about Tao Weiziyuan exam now. He heard that Tao Zuoran would accompany his son to the provincial capital for the exam. He sighed twice and then asked Tao Yongneng: "Is there enough travel expenses?"
Tao Yongneng smiled and said, "Their shop is doing well. Over the years, they have saved some money. I heard that they have prepared the travel and accommodation fees to the provincial capital."
Tao Yongcheng nodded and sighed: "He has five sons and one daughter now, so he can't take care of his eldest son, regardless of the future of the four sons and one daughter below?"
Tao Yongneng looked at him with some difficulty. When he saw Tao Yongcheng glaring at him, he quickly lowered his head and said, "Brother, you don't look like someone who says such things."
My second couple has already agreed that they will not have children anymore. If Brother Zi can be on the list this time, he will not have to worry too much about his family in his life in the future."
Tao Yongcheng didn't want to talk to Tao Yongneng at first, but after hearing his words, he couldn't help but say, "He was a scholar. He was a scholar at this age, so your family naturally had to support him in continuing his studies.
I heard that they were able to go to the provincial capital to take the college entrance examination this time because the school officials in Fenzhou City felt that many of their students in this class could be ranked."
Tao Weizi actually talked more to his family. It is very meaningful for them to go to the provincial capital for an exam this time. Most of them hope to go to a higher place.
This time, most of the people who passed the list will go to the provincial capital to take the big exam three years later. In that exam, they face more excellent students with comprehensive skills.
In the spring rainy weather, Tao Zuoran and his son went to the provincial capital. Tao Qingbi quietly stuffed a bag of silver to Tao Weizi: "Brother, after the exam, you can buy a few more useful books in the provincial capital."
Tao Weizi originally wanted to refuse, but after hearing Tao Qingbi's words, he reached over and took the silver and said with a smile: "Okay, brother, please follow your arrangements. After the exam, you must take a look at the provincial bookstore and try to buy a few useful books back."
On the way to the provincial capital, Tao Weizi and Tao Zuoran smiled and said, "Dad, I will study hard. After I am on the list this time, I will study hard for another three years, and strive to go to the provincial capital to take the big exam in three years."
Tao Zuoran just smiled. The head of Sanjia Alley School mentioned that if Tao Weizi was a scholar at this age, if their family had the ability, it would be better to send Tao Weizi to the provincial capital official school to study.
Even if you have to pay more tuition, it is more promising than leaving Tao Weizi to study in Fenzhou City Official School. After all, the provincial capital is large and there are many famous teachers, so students have the opportunity to receive better teaching.
Tao Zuoran became interested. He and An Erzhi privately calculated the money they had saved. The couple were both interested. As long as Tao Weizi could go to the provincial capital to study, his family would support him to study in the provincial capital.
Tao Zuoran didn't want to put too much pressure on Tao Weizi. At this moment, he heard Tao Weizi's words and said with a smile: "Zi'er, do your best. No matter what the final result is, at least you can take the exam in the provincial capital, which will be of great benefit to you."
In the shop, after the guests left, Tao Qingbi went to the backyard to talk to Tao Weicong. He stopped the work inside and looked at Tao Qingbi and said, "Your brother is going to take the exam, why are you worried?
If your brother is on the list this time, he will be a scholar. He will definitely study in the future. Think about it, do you want to do business with your heart? If there are too many business in the store, your brother can study with peace of mind. OK, don’t bother me, let me do my job with your heart.”
"Brother Third, I'm not here to argue with you. I just remembered it. When I went out in the morning, my aunt told me that someone would come to the store to see you today and told me not to close the middle door."
"So what if I see it? Anyway, I said, I like to stay with you and do work in the backyard of the store. Do you still remember the person who was the previous one?"
Tao Qingbi naturally remembered the guests who had been here before, but she didn't know that they were the ones who came to see Tao Weicong at that time. She thought they were the guests who came to buy things, so she also recommended a pair of wedding buckets to them.
The customer bought a pair of wedding buckets, but the matter of seeing each other did not succeed in the end, because they felt that Tao Weicong was a little unemployed. A big man didn't want to go out to work and support his family, but he had to accompany his sister to guard the store, which was a bit unpromising.
Tao Weicong knew the truth afterwards, and was so angry that he jumped up and said, "My current skills can only be used when going out. With this kind of leisure skill, I might as well hone my skills in the backyard of the store. Why can't I support my family? Their family bought a pair of buckets I made."
When Tao Qingbi heard his words, she couldn't help laughing and shook her hand and said, "San brother, stop talking, it's so funny. You should make more buckets these days. I think customers will definitely like to buy buckets on such days."
Tao Weicong is now willing to listen to Tao Qingbi's arrangements and quickly said, "After I finish this bench, I will start making buckets and then making wooden plates. What do you think?"
"San brother, okay, I think it's a good thing. Third brother, you said that my father and brother went to the provincial capital. Will we have the chance to go to the provincial capital to have a chance to see it in the future?"
"This time your brother's yard has been tried. I think we all have hope to go to the provincial capital."
Tao Qingbi folded her hands together and said to Tao Weicong: "Third Brother, why don't we ask the gods to bless my brother with everything going well?"
"Puff, Niu Niu, you're just cramming. Grandma, my mother and your mother have already gone to the temple to worship, and they have also asked for peace talismans for your father and your brother."
Tao Qingbi put down her hand and said with peace of mind: "I think my father and my brother must be smooth and smooth. Let's wait for good news at home."
Time passed quickly. When Tao Zuoran and his son came back from the provincial capital, the family members did not dare to ask Tao Weizi for information. Instead, he confessed himself: "I can write all of them, but I don't know much, and I also wrote a rough meaning."
Tao Zuoran said to Tao Zuorian and Tao Zuoru, "This time I have seen several shops in the provincial capital. Their carpentry work is exquisite. I have drawn some patterns and come back, but I can't copy other people's things. We can only learn from them."
Tao Zuolian and Tao Zuozhu looked at the drawings brought back by Tao Zuoran and said in surprise: "Second brother (second brother), you are a little wrong with drawing, is it necessary to use the table foot so high?"
"The furniture, tables, chairs and coffee tables are made in the provincial capital, and the feet of the kang tables are all made high, and only the kang tables are not much different from those we are doing now.
