Bai Fu is not a native of Houshan Village, he took his daughter-in-law and newborn eldest daughter to leave Maple Leaf Village soon after he got married, and went to Houshan Village to settle down. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

The reason is very simple, just because Bai Fu has been windy and rainy since he was a child, because he is the eldest son in the family and the only child who reads, his father is a merchant who has made some money, and he wants his family to become a family of cultivators, so he hopes to produce an official. It's a pity that Bai Fu stopped here in Xiucai all his life.

He felt that he had failed in the examination, so the clan did not let him be the patriarch, but let his younger brother, who was useless and could only dig in the soil, be the patriarch. Because of this, he moved to Maple Leaf Village in a fit of anger.

A few years later, his eldest son was born, and he also tried to take the exam again, but unfortunately he failed again......

However, when he was rushing to take the exam, he made a friend who thought he had the same surname, this person's surname was Bai, named Bai Yuanqing, who was two years younger than him, and he was very handsome. He once had some emotion, people's names are so popular as literati, he is called Bai Fu, and at first glance, he knows that his father has never read.

The two walked together and lived in a guest room, Bai Yuanqing was very generous, and took the initiative to pay for the room, so as not to let Bai Fu worry about it, but unfortunately both of them fell off the list later.

After that, the two went home separately, probably because of the blow of losing the list, and they didn't have much contact with each other, so they only made an appointment to go to the exam together in three years.

In the past two years, Bai Fu's wife Liu has a big belly, originally he thought that his second son was about to be born, but he was born a crying kitten-like girl, and the girl lived for two days and went.

He didn't have much regret, after all, the girl couldn't study, she couldn't do any farm work, and she would have to pay a dowry in the future, but Liu was very sad, crying and chattering over there every day, saying that she didn't eat well when she was pregnant, and the family was poor, and the child would go as soon as she came out.

Bai Fu was also very annoyed, he knew that with his current situation, he was afraid that he would not be able to make up the entanglement when he was in the middle of the exam, so he had to lick his face and borrow it from his relatives.

On this night, Bai Yuanqing suddenly came to the door, with a small doll wrapped in his arms, which looked like a little baby who was born a few days ago.

Bai Fu was very surprised and wanted to step forward and pat him on the shoulder, but he hurriedly stepped back and said, "Don't come near me, I have tuberculosis, and I don't want to give you a bad time!"

Bai Fu was startled and hurriedly stopped, Liu Shi came out of the house after listening to the movement, and looked at Bai Yuanqing with a defensive face.

"You're still in confinement, go back to the house to rest, don't join in the fun here. Bai Fu turned his head and said to Liu unhappily.

Liu reluctantly returned to the house, but his ears were pricked up and he listened hard.

"Brother Fu, I came to have a reluctant request, my mother had a difficult birth, and she died after giving birth to a child, and I had tuberculosis, and the doctor said that I would not live for more than a month, and I didn't dare to take care of this child more, so I was afraid that I would give him too much illness. I don't get along with my family, you know, so I have to come to you. Bai Yuanqing said with a look of shame.

Bai Fu was stunned, he was going to refuse, what is the situation in his family, his own family can't support him, how can he raise children for others?

At that time, Bai Yuanqing took out a stack of silver tickets from his arms and put them directly on the table next to him, Bai Fu took a look, they were all silver tickets with a face value of one hundred taels!

"I have a thousand taels of silver here, half of which is given to Brother Fu and sister-in-law, as a reward for trouble, and the other half is the money for the child to study, Brother Fu, you are a scholar, I can rest assured that you train the child, you must let him be better than me, and when he can be admitted to the lifting person, you tell him his true identity, see if he is willing to recognize the clansman, if he can't pass the examination for the rest of his life, let him be your son for the rest of his life, don't let him know my existence." ”

Bai Fu's eyes were hot when he stared at those silver tickets, one thousand taels, more than twenty taels of the Zhuang family could be spent for a year, with these silvers, he would not have to worry about the exam later, and the children would not have to worry about studying.

"Y-Who are you?" he asked, stammering, where could an ordinary person come up with such a large sum of money at once?

"Don't ask, this money is also serious, you can rest assured, you can hold this token, if the child can pass the exam, you will hand it over to him." Bai Yuanqing glanced at the little child in his arms, and his eyes were extremely reluctant, "I hope he has 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, and no one knew that he was not born by Liu, let alone that the child originally born to Liu had died.

Bai Yuanqing left that night, never appeared before, and never wrote a letter to Bai Fu, Bai Fu felt that he should die soon.

Bai Fu's life has improved a lot because of the sudden money, Bai Fu bought a few more pieces of land, of course he won't plant it himself, so he rented it out to others to plant, and the rent can be eaten by the family. After that, he successfully went to catch the exam, but unfortunately his knowledge was limited, and he still failed to pass the exam.

After five or six years of panic, Bai Yibo, the eldest of his family, is already nine years old, can read a lot of articles, and is a smart and clever child. He also began to teach Bai Yihong to read and write, I don't know if it was because his children looked good in his eyes, or Bai Yihong was indeed born dull, he always felt that Bai Yihong was not as good as his son, and his reading and literacy were much slower.

During this period, he went to catch the exam several times, but failed to pass the exam, 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 will also think of the entrustment of his friends, but he always thinks that he is short of money, and wait, otherwise the child is a little dull, it is better for him to teach, and he may not be able to keep up with the private school in the town, so why waste this money in vain.

So dragging and dragging, it became a slow not to teach Bai Yihong, plus Bai Yihong was in good health, and he was diligent and willing to work, and soon took on a lot of work at home, and the time for studying was greatly reduced, and then he began to work in the field again, so he followed the old crops in the village to learn to farm, and soon went to take on the work in the field, and the study time was even less.

It is definitely more cost-effective to plant the land by himself than to rent it out, and he naturally will not stop Bai Yihong from farming, and even in the next few decades, Bai Yihong will be called like a cow and a horse.

After a long time, he got used to it, and some of the worries he originally had in his heart were gone, just like Liu said, you can raise him is the greatest kindness to him, and he shouldn't have any requirements.

Later, Bai Yibo was finally admitted to Tongsheng, and Bai Fu was ecstatic to focus all his attention on his son, and he didn't care about Bai Yihong's situation anymore. When Bai Yibo married a wife, in order to find him a town with good conditions, Bai Fu also sold the token given by Bai Yuanqing and made up enough dowry for his son.
