Chapter 203 Raising a younger brother in ancient times 4
By the end of July, all the crops in the fields had been harvested.
After collecting, Yun Chu went to the village chief.
After hearing the purpose of the visit, the village chief was a little surprised and asked: "Yun Chu, why did you sell the land?"
"Uncle Lu, I want to take my younger brother to Quzhou. My father's classmate is in Quzhou. Some time ago, he wrote to me and asked if my younger brother wanted to study at the college there."
"After much thought, I decided to take my brother to study in Quzhou, hoping that Ayan can become a successful person through his studies."
"Then you don't have to sell the land. You can rent it to people in the village to grow crops, and then you can collect some rent every month."
"And if Ayan becomes an official in the future, these fields can be kept as sacrificial fields for the Fang family..." the village chief persuaded.
"Lu Bo is very thoughtful. I won't sell the house and the land. I'll ask Lu Bo to take care of the house. As for the rent of the land, I'll also ask Lu Bo to collect it."
"As for the rent of the land, I decided to ask Uncle Changhe and the others first. If they don't want to rent it, Uncle Lu will help ask other people in the village."
Yun Chu felt that she didn't need the money from this little bit of land. She had saved a lot of gold bars from completing so many tasks.
Gold bars can be used as currency in most mission worlds, so when in the modern mission world, she will exchange all her money into gold bars.
"Okay." Village Chief Lu nodded.
Yun Chu went to find Li Changhe and the others, and they were all willing to rent the land.
After renting out the land, Yun Chu went to Pingzhou City and bought a carriage.
He also found an escort agency and hired an escort master to escort them to Quzhou.
At the end of August, Yun Chu and Fang Yan left Daliu Village and went to Quzhou.
From Yuanzhou to Quzhou, if the journey is smooth, it will take more than 20 days to arrive.
Before dark, they arrived in Xinzhou and found an inn to stay in.
After a night's rest, they continued their journey. During the lunch break, Yun Chu and his friends met the exiled prisoners.
Among this group of exiles, there were quite a few children, the youngest of whom was only two or three years old.
This group of prisoners did not stop to rest and kept moving forward.
After Yun Chu and the others had something to eat, they continued on their journey.
After walking for more than two hours, Master Ye discovered that something was wrong with the weather and it might rain.
"Miss Fang, it might rain tonight. Let's go to Zhuangzi Township and find someone to rest with tonight."
"Okay." Yun Chu nodded.
After that, the carriage drove quickly, and before it rained, they arrived at Zhuangzi Township and stayed at the village chief's house.
It rained all night and it cleared up the next day.
Yun Chu and his companions set out again, but unexpectedly, at noon, they met the group of exiles again.
Yun Chu and his companions' carriage was not far from the place where the exiled prisoners rested.
Only a few dozen meters.
After a while, a ten-year-old boy came over and knelt on the ground: "Excuse me, young lady, do you have any medicine for typhoid fever? My brother and mother got caught in the rain last night and have a high fever."
"Miss, please give me some medicine."
"Yes, wait a moment." Yun Chu went to the carriage and then took out a medicine bottle from the space.
"This is a pill for treating colds. One pill will cure you. Take it."
"Thank you, Miss. I am Lingyu. I will always remember your kindness."
"I don't know the name of my benefactor?"
"My name is Fang Yunchu, and this is my brother Fang Yan."
"Thank you, Miss Fang."
Ling Yu took the medicine back and gave it to his mother and younger brother.
After taking less than half a cup of tea, both of them had subsided from their high fever.
Both of them woke up.
Ling Yu was very surprised. He didn't expect that this medicine would be so effective.
I really met a noble person!
On the fifteenth day, Yun Chu and his team arrived in Fuyang.
They were supposed to leave after a night's rest, but they were stranded because of heavy rain.
"Sister, someone was beaten." Fang Yan shouted.
Yun Chu put down the book and walked to the window. Sure enough, he saw a child being kicked and beaten in the alley.
Before they could stop the beating, the two people who were beating him had already left.
The beaten child fell in the alley, and no one knew whether he was alive or dead.
"Ayan, wait here. I'll take Master Ye to take a look."
"Okay, sister."
Yun Chu went to find Master Ye, and the two of them took the child to the clinic.
The injury was not serious, he just fainted from hunger.
And this child is a girl.
After a while, the child woke up.
This child is a little beggar. He is twelve years old this year. He looks like an eight or nine-year-old child and was raised by an old beggar.
Recently, some new beggars came to Fuyang. These new beggars were young and bullied the weaker beggars.
All the money and food they got had to be handed over.
The reason why she was beaten was because she secretly hid food today.
"Are you willing to sell yourself into slavery?" Yun Chu asked.
Xiao Wu nodded, "Miss, can you bring my grandfather with you?"
"Of course, go find your grandfather, and then come find me at Fenglai Inn."
"Thank you, miss."
Yun Chu and Master Ye left the clinic. Before going back, Yun Chu went to buy some clothes.
After Xiaowu brought his grandfather to the inn, Xiaowai took them to the guest room.
Yun Chu had already informed the inn in advance and paid the room fee.
Xiaowu and her grandfather took a bath and changed their clothes.
After I finished washing up, the waiter brought me food.
After they had eaten, they went to see Yun Chu.
"I wonder what the old gentleman's name is?"
"I am not worthy of being called sir, my surname is Zhou, my name is Dong Nan, and I am fifty-three years old this year."
"My hometown is Dingxi. Seventeen years ago, my family died in the war. I came to Fuyang and became a beggar."
"This is my granddaughter Zhou Qiu, nicknamed Xiaowu, and she is twelve years old."
"My name is Fang Yunchu, and this is my brother Fang Yan."
"Can Grandpa Zhou drive a carriage?"
"No." Zhou Dongnan shook his head.
"Then you can learn from Escort Master Liu. You will be the one driving the carriage from now on."
The two also signed a contract to sell their bodies for money. Without the money, they would not be able to go anywhere else.
Because they don’t have a travel permit or household registration.
On the third day, the rain stopped and they set off.
Five days later, they arrived at Quzhou City.
After arriving, Yun Chu paid the bill to Master Ye and the others, and they left.
Yun Chu first stayed in the inn. After resting for a day, he went to find a human trafficker the next day and prepared to buy a house in Quzhou.
If Fang Yan wants to study, of course he has to buy a house.
In the end, he spent three thousand six hundred taels to buy a house with three courtyards.
After settling down, Yun Chu began to look for a suitable academy. There are seven famous academies in Quzhou.
Mengshan Jingshe, Qulu Academy, Qingxian Academy, Luming Academy, Jinglian Academy, Zhengyi Academy, Keshan Academy, and Baoshan Academy.
Qulu Academy, Qingxian Academy, Luming Academy and Baoshan Academy do not accept children under the age of thirteen.
Several other academies will accept you, but you have to pass an assessment before you can be accepted.
Yun Chu decided to inspect the four academies to see which one was more suitable for Fang Yan.
After investigating for half a month, I finally chose Zhengyi Academy.
