Chapter 283 1 The whole family has made a decision
Father Mu thought this was a good idea. He didn’t have to decide immediately whether to move to Rongdu, but could live there for a while.
"But, I'm afraid it won't work recently."
He took a few puffs of his pipe and said, "It's almost time to plant seeds. We can't miss this."
If it's early, we can prepare for sowing in more than half a month.
Mu Laoer was well aware of how much his family valued the farm work. "Dad, after we plant the seeds, we still have to take care of the farm. How can we have the time to go to Rongdu?"
"I think this year we should spend some money and ask the villagers to help take care of the fields."
He added, "Children's matters are more important."
Mu Laodi, who had been frugal all his life, couldn't bring himself to refuse.
The second child is right, the children’s affairs are more important.
"Wouldn't it be cheaper to ask someone I know to help me?"
Mu Laoer disagreed, "Dad, I understand your idea of saving money."
"On the surface, it seems cheaper to hire someone you know, and they might even provide better care."
"But we owe you a favor."
“The debt of favor is the hardest to repay.”
"What if an acquaintance asks us to help him arrange for his daughter to become a concubine for Doctor Deng or Mr. Cheng?"
"Or maybe, send your daughter to be a maid in Prince Zheng's house?"
Old Man Mu was speechless.
The second brother reminded him that it would be disastrous if an acquaintance took the opportunity to make demands.
"It seems that acquaintances are not a good idea." Zhu said, "Second brother, do you have any good ideas?"
Mu Lao Er scratched his head and said, "Let's ask the village chief for help."
"When we moved to Rongdu, we handed over our family business to the village chief's family. We didn't want the money we earned. I think the village chief would help our family take care of the land."
Mu Laosan agreed, "Dad, compared to looking for other people, it is most appropriate to look for the village chief's family."
"Our family does business together with the village chief's family. And because of the relationship between Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng, the county magistrate built a private school in the village. The village chief will definitely take care of our family."
Father Mu looked at his two sons with different eyes, "You two are really different now."
Mu Lao Er and Mu Lao San were quite emotional.
“It’s because of doing business and interacting with so many people that things have changed.”
"Yes. We didn't know how to adapt before, but after interacting with so many customers, we gradually learned how to adapt and learned a lot."
Mu Lao Er looked at Mu Pingping and the other children and said earnestly, "You really should go out more often."
"Especially a place like the Imperial College."
"The more people you meet and the more you see, the more you will grow in all aspects."
"Like me and my third brother, our horizons were very narrow before we started business. But after we started business, our horizons changed a lot."
Before doing business, he only interacted with the farmers in and outside the village, and his vision and knowledge were limited.
After doing business, he came into contact with all kinds of people in the town, and he got to know more and understood a lot.
Children like Mu Pingping and Muniu are willing to go out, but children like Mu Zhuangzhuang are not very willing to go out.
"I'm not taking the imperial or military examinations, so I don't need to have such a broad vision."
"It's nice to stay in the village. I just want to go to town from time to time. I don't want to go out."
Mu Laoer did not force them. Perhaps the children would have different ideas when they arrived in Rongdu.
"Dad, is this how things are settled?"
Mu Laodi said, "Let's decide this first."
"Tomorrow, I'll talk to the village chief and see what to do next."
It’s not like they can go to Rongdu just because they say they want to.
There are a lot of things to do here and there.
"Baby," Mu Laosan picked up Yan Tata's daughter and coaxed her, "Did you hear that?"
"We're going to live in Rongdu for a while so you don't have to be separated from Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng."
Mu Baobao sighed like a little adult, "Dad, we won't live together forever. We will eventually separate."
Mu Lao San, "...maybe, we will live together forever."
He pinched his daughter's chubby cheeks and said, "Go tell Doctor Deng and Mr. Cheng quickly. Maybe we'll have to leave together then."
"Will we trouble Doctor Deng and Mr. Cheng?" Father Mu was reluctant. "It will be very troublesome for Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng."
"We've already troubled Mr. Cheng and Doctor Deng so much, how can we trouble them again?"
Mu Lao San explained, "Dad, we are such a big family, and we are going to Rongdu, which is so far away. If we don't have anyone to protect us, it will be easy for something to go wrong on the way."
"Besides, we don't know how to get to Rongdu."
Father Mu tapped his forehead and laughed, "Look at my brain. I'm really getting old. I even forgot such an important thing."
Their whole family didn't know how to get to Rongdu, and there would be a lot of trouble and danger along the way. It would be best for them to follow Dr. Deng and Mr. Cheng.
"I'm not old." said Mu Baobao.
Father Mu touched her head and said with a smile, "Good, Grandpa is not old."
"Baby, let your dad take you to Dr. Deng and talk about this."
Mu Baobao was a little confused, "Master, do we really need to live in Rongdu for a while?"
"Don't want to go?" asked Old Man Mu.
Mu Baobao shook his head, then nodded, "It's so far away, I haven't been there."
"Besides, I'm not familiar with Rongdu at all."
She wanted to go to Rongdu, but she didn't really want to go.
Mainly because of unfamiliarity.
Father Mu said, "Don't think too much, baby."
"Like your second uncle said, if we don't feel comfortable staying in Rongdu, we can come back."
Baby Mu grabbed his paws and became even more confused. "But what about my brothers?"
"The Imperial College is so good. It will be better for my brothers if they go there to study."
For the sake of her brothers, she is willing to endure all bad things.
Mu Laodi and others felt very warmed when they heard this, but they felt even more distressed because the little baby only knew how to put himself in a difficult position.
"Baby," Mu Pingping held her hand and whispered softly, "Brothers don't have to go to the Imperial College."
“The Imperial College is great, but that doesn’t mean you can succeed just by studying there.”
"You see, many people can still achieve success without studying in the Imperial College."
Mu Baobao had limited knowledge in this area. She insisted that her brothers study at the Imperial College entirely because of what Cheng Zishi and Doctor Deng said.
"Really?" she asked doubtfully.
Mu Pingping nodded heavily, "Has Big Brother ever lied to you?"
Mu Baobao said, "No."
"Look, Big Brother has never lied to you, so he naturally won't lie about something like this."
"Then, big brother, can you still succeed if you go to school somewhere else?"
"can."
Even for the sake of the baby, he has to work hard to succeed and not burden her.
Mu Baobao patted his chest lightly and breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good, that's good."
"I thought that only those who graduated from the Imperial College could achieve success."
However, the Imperial College is so good, it would be great if my brothers could study there.
