The Prodigal Son's Happy Life - Chapter 1183
[Chapter 1183 I can stay in Kyoto Prefecture!]
Got back home.
Wu has already prepared the meal and is waiting at home.
The children are also back from school.
Doing homework.
This time, he was more serious about his homework than before.
Because he knew that this was his last homework.
When he returns to his hometown, he may not be able to continue studying.
Even though the child is young, there are some things that he understands better than anyone in his heart.
He knew that his father had no money.
Because he has no money, he has to go back to his hometown. Because he has no money, he has to go home and play with his friends instead of studying in school.
The academy at home is not like the academy in Kyoto Prefecture. As long as you get good test scores, you can study for free.
In fact, to be honest, he doesn’t like studying in his heart.
But he doesn’t know why, but he always feels that reading is important. He should study
not because reading can make him eat.
It’s because all the friends in the school who are about the same age as me are studying.
And each of them wears clean clothes and speaks differently from their friends back home.
Therefore, he felt that as long as he studied, he could become like them, instead of being like the friends in his hometown who wore tattered clothes.
Only when he was reading did he feel that he belonged to them.
Of course, there is no point in saying any of this.
Because this is the last day they stay in Kyoto Prefecture. At the end of today, when they wake up tomorrow, they will start to help their father and mother pack their luggage.
Then I walked around Kyoto Prefecture, said goodbye to my friends in the academy, handed my homework to my husband, and told him that I was going back to my hometown.
Then, it was time for him to leave.
On the side, Mrs. Wu looked at her son’s expression, feeling inexplicably disappointed.
In fact, for her, there is really not much difference between staying in Kyoto Prefecture and returning to her hometown.
Her only regret is that her son could not continue to study in Kyoto Prefecture.
I heard that the teachers at the liberal arts college are the best in Dachu.
The dean of the academy was Ya Yuan, a man with great knowledge. Even the prefect of the city may not be as knowledgeable as the dean, let alone the gentlemen in the private schools.
However, after returning to my hometown, I’m afraid I won’t even be able to afford a private school.
After all, studying in a liberal arts college is free, but enrolling in a private school is another expense.
If you can’t find a job, every expense must be saved.
Wu sighed and wanted to speak to comfort her son, but she didn’t know where to start, so she just sighed.
At this time, there was a sudden knock on the door.
Boom, boom, boom!
“It’s me.”
came Jiang San’s voice, which seemed different from before.
Wu got up and opened the door for him.
“My husband is back.”
She had already changed her words. She no longer called her master, but called her husband as before.
“Everything is almost packed and the food is ready. Let’s eat first. If there’s anything else, we’ll talk about it after dinner.”
Wu was afraid that her husband would not be able to think about it, so she did not mention leaving.
After hearing this, Jiang San thought for a while, nodded and said, “Okay.”
“Dad.”
Jiang San’s son put down the charcoal in his hand and turned towards Jiang San.
Jiang San picked him up and asked, “How was your performance in school today? Did the teacher praise you?”
The son nodded heavily and said, “The teacher said today that I was born to study!”
“My son is Of course the Wenqu star in the sky is good at studying! If you take the imperial examination in the future, you might be able to work as a prefect, and then your father and I will be the prefect’s father!”
Jiang San joked.
The two laughed happily together.
When Wu saw this scene from the side, she was slightly startled. This doesn’t look like she is unhappy, right?
Could it be that
she already had some guesses in her heart, so she asked: “Did your husband find a job outside today?”
Jiang San looked at her and did not show off, and nodded: “I found it. We need workers to build the new city. Every Tuesday Two taels of silver, including food and accommodation. I have already registered and will start tomorrow.”
When Wu heard this, she was startled for a moment, then showed hesitation and said: “Two taels of silver a month is a lot in my hometown, but here The rent in Kyoto Prefecture costs six taels of silver.”
In the past, Wu would not be happy when she heard that she could get two taels of silver a month, so how could she be so picky.
However, it is different now.
Not to mention anything else, the rent of this mansion is sixty taels of silver. If you can’t earn sixty taels of silver, you will still be sitting on nothing.
Jiang San waved his hand and said: “I have inquired about it. There are some empty houses in the villages on the outskirts of Kyoto Prefecture, which are enough for our family to live in. It only costs three taels of silver a year. It is not too far from the prefecture. It can be walked at most. It takes one or two sticks of incense to get to Fucheng.
And if the new city is built, the place where I work will be closer to the village.
If our son goes to school, there will be a carriage every day, and it doesn’t cost a penny.
When Mrs. Wu heard this, she was slightly startled and asked, “Really?”
Jiang Sandao said, “Why did you lie to me?”
Mrs. Wu looked excited and said, “If that’s the case, that would be great!
“
If my son is studying, we don’t have to go back to our hometown. We can save some money every year, and maybe we can buy a mansion in Kyoto in the future!”
Mrs. Wu has already begun to calculate the money needed to buy a mansion.
The son next to him was also ecstatic.
“Dad! So, I can still study with the gentlemen in the future?”
Jiang San nodded: “Yes!”
“That’s great! Thank you, Dad! I can study again! I don’t have to go back to my hometown!”
Jiang San’s son was where he was. Jumped up.
Although he never complained from the beginning to the end, in fact, he still hoped to stay in Kyoto Prefecture to study.
Wu was also very excited.
After a while, he restrained his inner joy, looked at the table full of delicious dishes, and said with some regret: “If I had known that I could stay in Kyoto Prefecture, I wouldn’t have cooked so many delicious dishes. It’s not a good time to celebrate every year or festival. What a waste.”
Jiang San heard this and glanced at the table.
That’s right, there are five dishes in total, which is indeed extremely rich.
He waved his hand and said: “This little food money is nothing. When we settle down in Kyoto Prefecture, we will have five dishes for every meal!”
When Wu heard this, she had a straight face: “How can three people eat like this? It’s not easy for you to find this job now. We still have to save money, otherwise we won’t have a job again.”
Jiang San shook his head: “Don’t worry, An Guogong is going to build next to Kyoto Mansion. A new city, that is to say, there will be no shortage of work for a few years.”
Wu didn’t quite understand and asked curiously: “Why?”
