The unlucky guy was reborn as a lucky girl from a farm

Chapter 596 Nerd

As the old lady thought this, she couldn't help but quicken her pace.

She walked straight towards the field where the third brother was working under the scorching sun, carrying a pot of water in her hand.

When they arrived at the edge of the field, the old lady saw from afar the third child, bending over and busying himself in the field.

She shouted at the top of her voice: "Old Three, come here~"

When the third brother heard his mother's voice, he straightened up and wiped the sweat from his forehead.

Then I looked in the direction of the voice and saw my mother standing at the edge of the field waving at me.

The third child couldn't help but murmur in his heart: "Why is mom so happy today? She smiles so brightly, why do I feel something is wrong?"

However, he didn't want to ask directly, so he put down the farm tools in his hands and walked quickly towards the old lady.

Walking up to the old lady, the third brother looked at her with some confusion, secretly wondering why the old lady wanted to see him.

He stopped and asked, "Mom, what do you want to talk to me about?"

When the old lady saw the third child, her smile immediately became wider.

She quickly untied the gourd filled with water from her waist and handed it to the other person, "Old Third, you look tired. Drink some water quickly, don't get thirsty."

The third brother looked at the gourd in the other person's hand and didn't dare to reach out to take it.

He knew the old lady's temper. She took the initiative to bring him water, which must mean she had something to ask of him.

Moreover, according to the old lady's character, she must have thought that as long as he drank the water she handed over, he would definitely help her.

Although the third brother thought so in his heart, he still said politely on the surface: "Mom, I'm not thirsty."

When the old lady saw that the third child did not take the water she handed over, the smile on her face suddenly froze.

She withdrew her hand awkwardly, and then said softly: "Oh, if you are not thirsty, then don't drink."

I thought to myself, "It also saves me some water."

After a moment of silence, the old lady seemed to finally muster up the courage, and she spoke again: "I...I do have something to do."

When the third brother heard her say this, he became more certain of his guess.

He looked at the old lady with an expression of knowing everything on his face, as if he already knew what the old lady was going to say next, which was nothing more than something about money.

"You say it."

"I want to send Fugui and Manguan to school, but the money at home is really not enough, so I want to borrow some money from you."

As she said this, a trace of helplessness and anxiety appeared on her face.

"Look at them, they are all your nephews! If they can pass the imperial examinations in the future, you will be their greatest benefactor!"

"Your family is so rich, just give us a little bit from your fingers, that's enough."

There was a hint of flattery in the old lady's tone, as if she was deliberately trying to please the other person.

"When the time comes, once they pass the exams and gain a good reputation, they will definitely pay you back with interest."

"Besides, you can also gain a good reputation for supporting poor students. Isn't this killing two birds with one stone?"

However, after hearing these words, the third brother frowned.

He knew very well that although what his mother said sounded reasonable, she was actually taking advantage of his kindness and compassion.

He was very familiar with his two nephews, Fugui and Manguan. They had been restless since childhood and were not good at studying at all.

Sending them to school is a waste of money.

Moreover, the third brother also knows the character of this family very well.

If you lend them money, they may never pay it back, and you will suffer the loss in the end.

The old lady knew the third son's worries. She silently took out the words that Man Guan had recently written from her bosom and handed them to the other party.

He said softly, "Look, this is written by Man Guan. It is so well written, and every stroke is so carefully written. He also wants to go to school, but his family has difficulty even getting food."

The third brother took the paper and looked at it carefully.

He himself actually didn't understand the quality of calligraphy, but he couldn't help but be surprised to see that Man Guan could write such words.

After all, he himself still doesn't even recognize a single Chinese character.

Perhaps, grand slam and wealth are really the materials for studying.

However, the third brother also understood that the family's money was earned by Ni'er through hard work.

If I want to lend the book to Fugui and Manguan for studies, I must first get Ni'er's consent. I can't make the decision myself.

Besides, that’s not a small amount of money.

"Mom, I have to go back and ask my daughter about this matter. I can't make the decision."

The third brother hesitated for a moment, but still told the old lady the truth.

Hearing that the third brother did not say anything definite, the old lady's face immediately showed a glimmer of hope.

She quickly responded: "Well, then I'll wait for your good news."

The third brother watched the old lady's back as she left. After she walked a few steps away, he shouted, "Go slowly, mother. I won't see you off."

The old lady had not walked far when she suddenly stopped and spat harshly.

He cursed and muttered, "It's all that bitch's fault. If it weren't for her, I might have been able to lend the money to me today!"

At this time, Nier had just returned from her master, and the question of how to make beer was lingering in her mind.

Not only that, Nier also plans to try making some other drinks with unique flavors.

This way, guests can choose their favorite drinks as they please.

After Nier returned home, she immediately started preparing the necessary materials.

She carefully selects each ingredient to ensure their optimal quality and freshness.

When everything was ready, Nier rolled up her sleeves without hesitation, ready to show her skills.

Just then, Niu Li returned home from school.

As soon as he entered the door, he saw his sister busy in the kitchen, surrounded by various bottles and jars and a pile of ingredients.

"Sister, let me help you!" Niu Li said enthusiastically, "Just tell me what you need to do, and I will do it."

However, Nier smiled and shook her head gently.

Then he said to his brother gently, "Brother, you should go and review your lessons. I am enough here."

Niu Li did not listen to his sister's words, but retorted seriously: "Sister, I have learned all the lessons."

"If you study at school and at home, you will become a nerd."

"Working is what we should do. If I just study and do nothing, how can I become a good official who cares for the people if I pass the imperial examination in the future?"

"If I don't understand the sufferings of the people at all, it won't be enough just to be able to read."

After listening to Niu Li's words, Ni'er couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth slightly, revealing a gratified smile.

"Oh my, we've only been in school for a few days and I can't argue with you." Ni'er said with a smile.
