Chapter 923 Zhou Dabao is suitable for farming
Ever since Sun Shan passed the imperial examination, Uncle Sun was promoted to the title of the Third Old Master. After Sun Shan passed the imperial examination and became a Jinshi, Uncle Sun was even known as the Third Old Master Sun.
There is no need to worry at all when dealing with a married woman like Sun Xiaogu.
He curled his lips and said contemptuously, "Third sister, I am just telling the truth. Shanzi is shy and embarrassed to speak out. As the third brother, I will speak out for Shanzi.
Do you think it is easy to find a good job? Of course, for Shanzi, it is definitely possible to find one. It is not a difficult task.
The most difficult thing for Shanzi is that Dabao is incompetent and can't do the job. Humph, if you want to blame someone, blame yourself for not encouraging Dabao to study hard.
I don't ask Dabao to pass the imperial examination like Shanzi, but it would be enough if he could be like my Dege. Look, my Dege can read and write, is smart, and has a good fortune in the county school.
This job was also introduced by Shanzi, and when the teacher saw that my Dege had the ability, he immediately accepted it."
After a pause, he pretended to sigh and said, "Little sister, even if Shanzi introduces someone to a job, that person must be capable. If he introduces someone who has no talent, it will embarrass Shanzi. Little sister, my Sun family cannot afford to lose face, and we cannot let Shanzi lose face."
When Sun Chunjiao heard this, she was so angry that she had a heart attack. She pointed at Uncle Sun and said, "You~~you~~"
You were speechless for a long time.
Aunt Sun's eyes were red. She ran to Huang and said aggrievedly, "Mother, you have to make the decision for me. Third brother is too much. Is there an uncle like him? How dare he say that to his nephew?"
Huang glared at Uncle Sun and comforted Aunt Sun: "Chun Jiao, don't let Shu Wen get angry. He is just like that, he doesn't think before he speaks."
Then she changed the subject and said, "Chunjiao, to be honest, Dabao is indeed not smart enough. Even if Shanzi introduces a job to him, I don't think he can handle it. Hey, Chunjiao, don't make it difficult for Shanzi."
Although what Uncle Sun said was harsh, it was the truth.
Compared with De Ge'er, Zhou Dabao is indeed inferior. Whether in appearance or temperament, there is no comparison.
Zhou Dabao did not learn the cleverness of Zhou Erlang and Sun Xiaogu, but instead became as honest as Sun Boming and Sun Ershu.
Huang didn't want to embarrass Sun Shan, so he used his connections to pass the "straw bag" to someone else.
Huang continued, "Chunjiao, I think Dabao is still suitable for farming at home. Why don't you make some money and buy a few more acres of land to leave for Dabao to pass down to the family."
Sun Xiaogu opened her eyes wide. She didn't expect that Huang not only did not comfort her, but also supported Uncle Sun's statement.
It felt like a bolt of lightning struck me and I was burned to a crisp inside out.
When Uncle Sun heard that Huang supported him, he looked at Aunt Sun with even more pride.
The corners of his mouth slightly raised, and he said with a sly smile: "Little sister, mother is right, it is better to buy a few more acres of land for Dabao to cultivate, and don't think about working outside. If Dabao goes out, he might be taken advantage of. Hey, there are many bad people out there, if Dabao meets a scoundrel, he might be cheated out of everything."
Uncle Sun turned around, patted Zhou Dabao on the shoulder and said, "Dabao, don't blame your uncle for being blunt. He's doing this for your own good. The glamorous world outside is not suitable for you. You'd better stay at home and farm. If you have time, go to the mountains to find some mountain products and bring them to your uncle to sell."
Zhou Dabao was about to cry. He was called stupid by Uncle Sun and indirectly called stupid by Mrs. Huang.
He is not that stupid, why do people call him stupid?
At home, my younger sister often calls herself stupid. Is she really that stupid?
Zhou Dabao was sad and fell into self-doubt.
Zhou Erlang felt very disappointed when he heard that Uncle Sun and Mrs. Huang both expressed disdain for their own Dabao.
Looking at his son with his head hung down and in a depressed mood, it further confirmed the fact that his son was stupid.
Zhou Erlang thought he was a clever man, and he also thought his son was smart. Why did outsiders say his son was stupid?
Zhou Erlang fell into deep despair.
Seeing that her mother was not helping her, Xiaogu Sun hurried to Sun Shan and said, "Shanzi, please judge for me. How is your cousin stupid? He is not stupid at all."
It is not true to say that Zhou Dabao is stupid. He is just not smart.
Sun Shan comforted Aunt Sun: "Aunt, my cousin is not stupid at all."
As soon as these words were spoken, Sun Xiaogu, Zhou Erlang, and Zhou Dabao all looked at Sun Shan with light in their eyes.
Sun Shan said seriously, "Aunt, everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses. Although my cousin is not good at studying, he is good at farming. I heard that my cousin is farming the land at home, and he is doing very well. Aunt, don't think farming is simple, it is actually very difficult. Some people have been farming for most of their lives and still don't understand it. But my cousin is different. He can farm at a young age, which is better than most people."
In fact, Sun Shan didn't know what Zhou Dabao's advantages were.
I just heard from Mrs. Huang that the family's land was owned by Zhou Dabao and his wife, and Zhou Erlang went from door to door selling goods.
In this comparison, Zhou Dabao is definitely the best at farming in the Zhou family.
When Sun Xiaogu first heard Sun Shan say that Zhou Dabao was not stupid, she was very happy. But after Sun Shan finished speaking, she couldn't help rolling her eyes.
What a cunning Shanzi!
After all, it turns out that her son is only fit to farm.
Bah, in the final analysis, I still let Dabao farm at home and not help him find a job.
Aunt Sun wanted to lose her temper, but when she thought about her nephew's different status now and how the whole family depended on him, she endured it.
After snorting, he remained silent.
Zhou Erlang felt the same as Sun Xiaogu and couldn't help feeling disappointed.
It seems that Sun Shan is not going to help Dabao find a job.
Instead, Zhou Dabao said happily: "Cousin Shan, you are right. I'd better farm at home. I can also grow some vegetables and sell them in the city."
Sun Shan glanced at Zhou Dabao approvingly and said with a smile, "Cousin, this is a very good arrangement."
Sun Xiaogu and Zhou Erlang looked at each other and thought that since Sun Shan would not help them find a job, they would ask Huang and Sun Boming for more benefits later.
I heard that Sun Shan brought back a lot of good stuff from the capital this time, so I must take more of it back.
Although Huang's words made Sun Xiaogu and Zhou Erlang very angry, there was one thing she said that was very right, which was to make more money, buy more land, and leave it to future generations.
As for how to make more money, haha, I must rely on the Sun family.
It’s best to make money without any effort, to appease the Huang family more, and with a flick of the finger, haha, their pockets are full.
Zhou Miaomiao rolled her eyes around and looked at her father and mother, then at her grandmother and uncle.
I thought of the piece of silk cloth that my cousin Shan sent home from Jinling a few years ago.
Zhou Miaomiao and Zhou Dabao's wife fought and fought, but only got half of it.
Those fabrics were not available at all in Huangyang County, and Zhou Miaomiao still wants to own them again.
Hearing that her cousin from the mountain brought back a lot of good things this time, Zhou Miaomiao made up her mind to please her grandmother and uncle.
Once they are happy, they will benefit a lot.
As for the "embarrassing little incident" between Nian Shao and Sun Shan, Zhou Miaomiao had long forgotten it.
