Chapter 266

Ye Shiqi, a girl, is smarter than her sisters, and has refreshed adults' understanding of women. Women have no talent, but virtue.

In the eyes of old farmers, men are the pillars of the family. The more boys in the family, the better. It is not easy to feed them in a poor family, let alone let them study.

If there are one or two people who love to read and are a little bit smarter, they will have a family to support their studies, which is really not easy.

The most powerful person in the village now is the scholar, and a lot of people come out. This has already been said that the feng shui of the ancestral graves is good, and there are many males. The smoke from the ancestral graves has never happened in this village. A capable person who came to Beijing to be a high-ranking official.

Speaking of those who have been admitted to Beijing to become high-ranking officials, one or two in the entire county are already celebrities. It is so easy to squeeze the single-plank bridge with so many provinces and cities across the country.

It's so difficult for a man to study, but what's the use for a woman who is smart enough to study? It's not about marrying someone else, marrying and having children.

The more important thing is that if you have money, you must focus on training men. It doesn't matter whether girls can read or not, as long as they can be female celebrities and do housework.

It's just that since Mrs. Li gave birth to Ye Shiqi, the family began to make a fortune. This little girl is also a child-rearing child, so it can be said that she has brought wealth to the family.

In the eyes of others, Ye Shiqi has always been a member of the Wang family. Who doesn't envy Li Shi, this weak woman who doesn't know a few words, since she gave birth to such a smart daughter, she immediately brought great wealth to the family.

From a poor guy who is pitiful to everyone, to being envied and envied all of a sudden, this contrast is really unbelievable.

Everywhere here, there is a fairy tale, and some fairy Buddha statues are enshrined.

Old people also believe in Fengshui. When building a house, or in the place of the ancestral grave, the ancestors who are buried will ask the Fengshui master to see where is the treasured place of Fengshui, and they will be buried again.

Some old people once commented that since Mrs. Li was stung by a wasp before giving birth, the daughter she gave birth to was smarter.

Some people even commented that if Li Shi went to the place where she went to cut the grass before she gave birth, did she accidentally meet a fairy, and that her birth was a fairy descended from the earth.

If not, they have never seen such a young child who can learn piano, chess, calligraphy and painting so well, even if they learned these skills in the mother's womb, they would not be so capable.

Not to mention writing and literacy, but the ability to draw with one hand, some masters can't compare. The masters that farmers like them have seen are just some talents who can write better.

These scholars have also studied for many years before they can practice good calligraphy.

Ye Shiqi has always been at home, or playing with her friends, and when she goes outside, she also gets everyone's attention. Compared with some big stars she met in her previous life, the ancients are more conservative.

Ye Shiqi had already opened the gate of the ancestral hall and looked in, and saw a group of boys aged ten to fourteen or fifteen practicing lion dance.

The sound of beating gongs and drums came from inside, but it didn't affect it. There was an old master teaching some younger boys to learn martial arts.

All masters have disciples, and not all children in the whole village can be selected. This is why some boys watch and learn at the gate, but cannot go inside to learn.

Ye Shiqi was asked by the girls to play the flute, and the girls did exercises.

If some big girls play the flute, or are talked about and gossiped by others, the girl who is only two or three years old in front of her will only be listened to with appreciation, and she will move her body while pretending to understand the music without knowing it.

The "dong dong qiang" inside does not conflict with the flute sound outside.

Ye Shiqi doesn't know how to arrange music, and follows the rhythm of their drums and instruments.

The girls began their usual health exercises amidst the flute sound.

Ye Shiqi's eyes were not looking at the girls. Before, the door was not opened here, and girls were not allowed to enter.

She has never seen a boy practice dance and lion dance training like this. In such a good opportunity, she kept those movements firmly in her mind, which can be said to be a steal.

During the Chinese New Year, I also saw adults bring some dolls to the door to wake up the lion, but they just played for a while and left.

For peasants like them, those who practice martial arts are only for physical fitness, and they will not go outside to promote it, nor will they use martial arts to fight and cause trouble.

Ye Shiqi had thought before that if she wanted to learn more skills, she might be able to use them one day.

To become a chivalrous woman who robs the rich and helps the poor, she has never thought that no matter what era she is in, there will be his legal system.

And it is to pray for peace and safety, not to do something illegal, even heroic behavior such as robbing the rich and squeezing the poor is illegal.

If rich people are willing to take out their wealth and donate it, that is their own willingness to accumulate virtue and do good deeds.

Ye Shiqi thinks that way, and it is also in this era of books that she feels less secure.

I always feel that those who learn less will be bullied when they grow up.

Ye Shiqi played the flute outside, and the people inside the ancestral hall who were beating gongs and drums also saw it. The people inside did not stop the little dolls outside from having fun, and they worked harder inside.

There were people training in the ancestral hall, and the sound of beating gongs and drums made some adults working outside understand that the lion dance team was training.

These are teams organized by villages and villages, they have their own team spirit, and the money that Lion Dance got later was also divided among these teams.

Each township will have a spirit of honor, and they will compete in important festivals every year.

Of course, there will be some rich people who open stores, build houses and build foundations, and these teams will also be invited to celebrate.

There will be masters in every township, and some good seedlings will be selected as successors.

Although this is a water town with a lot of water sources, there is no such custom of playing dragon boats. There is such a custom in the neighboring city farther away.

In the past two years of observation, Ye Shiqi has never seen villagers playing dragon boats on the fifth day of May.

I heard that some men can also swim, but there are more men who are landlubbers, and they only train in martial arts.

Nor are those near the river, there are small boats and big boats.

The largest river in the village, even babies can swim, and the water only reaches the belt waist of adults.

There is a larger reservoir in Bushen Village, where adults go to swim and catch fish, but children are not allowed to go there.

There are also some fake small reservoirs in the village, which are only used to store water for farming.

Ye Shiqi was tired after playing a few tunes, so she stopped to take a rest, when her sisters came.

These four elder sisters have always been the favorites of their sisters. In order to help their mother make small clothes, they left their younger sisters in the room. When they found that the two maids were helping in grandma's room, they realized that something was wrong.

The little girl who is usually at home seems to be not at home. When I asked other workers, they said that the little girl went out to play with some girls.

Of course, the elder sister was afraid that the younger sister would go to some dangerous places. When they walked out of the house, they heard the sound of blowing flute. The sound was very familiar, and they thought it must be the younger sister playing.

Seeing her sisters coming, Ye Shiqi asked them to join in. Her sisters were also attracted by everyone's fun.

After all, the oldest one is only a little over ten years old, not yet at the point of not going out.

Besides, in the peasant family, there is no such thing as Miss Qianjin, who has the habit of staying in the boudoir all day and not going out.

There are also some sons and daughters of rich people in their village, who don't play with the children of poor farmers. They look down on people, and people from poor families don't play with them.

They can only play with rich people, and put on the airs of sons and daughters, with their noses up all day long, which is not liked by the children of poor people.

If it was two years ago, everyone would have asked for them. In the past two years, everyone had jobs, and the family became a little richer, and there was no rich man oppressing long-term workers.

Farmers feel that they are not doing well in a rich man's house, and they already have a place to choose to make money. The rich man can't hire people unless he raises the price.

In the past two years, the Ye family has entered the ranks of rich people, but they are approachable. Unlike other rich people, villagers also like to work in their house, after all, they have more benefits.

The children like to communicate with the girls of the Ye family, and can learn other skills from them.

The five sisters of the Ye family are so popular with boys and girls in the village, but they are disliked by other rich men and ladies in the village.

Just when the five sisters were at the gate of the ancestral hall, they were having fun with some girls.

The sons and daughters of the other rich men in the village all listened to the servants come in to report.

They don't have the same surname, and they can form a group just to have friends.

When I heard that the rich daughters of the new general class Ye family were playing with some poor girls.

Everyone thinks that they are adou who can't support the wall, and the young lady is not like the young lady, and such a wild one can only be a pheasant, so how can they be like these phoenixes?

The women thought so, and the men thought that the sisters of the Ye family could only be married as concubines, and of course the main family should marry a well-educated and reasonable girl, who would not be as wild as them.

The rich men in the village thought that the Ye family might become more and more powerful, even more powerful than them, and the more wealth they accumulated, the more valuable their children would be, and the rising tide would raise all boats.

So they all let their own children get in touch with Hongji's children, and of course some adults urged them to marry the daughter of the Ye family to make a fortune.

What the adults thought was that the rebellious teenagers agreed in front of the adults, but privately they were very annoyed that the daughters of Hongji had robbed them of their demeanor.

There are already wealthy people who, intentionally or unintentionally, said something when they met Hongji, implying that they can be relatives of their sons and daughters.

Acer didn't know whether he was stupid and couldn't hear the words of these people, or he couldn't be the master of his children, so he didn't express his position on the hints of the rich.

The dolls didn't agree to anything, and they didn't set a lifetime for their daughters at such a young age.

Acer is not the kind who wants his daughters to find stronger masters when they grow up.

As a father's mood, he is different from other fathers. Although he also has patriarchal feelings, he has a deep relationship with his daughters.

When someone said that he wanted to choose a baby from among his daughters, the youngest daughter was mentioned.

Not to mention the youngest daughter, the oldest daughter is only a little over ten years old and can stay with their husband and wife for another five or six years. How can a daughter raised so hard be sent to someone else's home so easily.

It will be different when you get married. Others will pick up the children in the name of their in-laws.

It's not that he can't afford to support his daughter, he has worked so hard, how could he give up nurturing his daughter.

Someone mentioned the matter of getting married in front of her father, and she was also involved, but Ye Shiqi was completely kept in the dark.

Hongji, the father, has something to say, maybe he will tell his daughter-in-law, and he will let their sisters go back to their room and talk to their parents.

In fact, Hongji was afraid that his unreliable parents would let their daughter out because of a little profit when they were so young.

Lai's family and his wife actually have a little bit of meaning. Anyway, the five granddaughters can't let them take away too much family property, so they were allowed to go out to their husband's house when they were very young.

In the future, these family properties can only belong to the grandson, and can only be enjoyed by the two elderly people.

Such thinking is because of their traditional concept that girls belong to other people's homes, and they will go out sooner or later, so let's sell them for a good price!

If you hire a husband and spend so much money now, staying at home can only be a waste of money!
The couple thought this way, maybe they really didn't have any feelings for their five granddaughters, but they didn't expect their son to keep chatting with them, threatening them, telling them not to do anything about betraying their granddaughters.

Of course Lai would refute with her son, but her words made him hoarse.

"Didn't my three sisters not marry until they were sixteen or seventeen? Which one was not given as a dowry, and which one I didn't contribute to?"

Lai's mouth moved and wanted to say, how could her daughter compare with her granddaughter, that was her heart, and she dared not say this in the eyes of her son.

The Lai family gave up their minds, thinking that if they were raised up, they might be able to sell for a better price.

The next day was bright, and it was a little later in winter than in summer. After dawn, the sisters got up early.

Ye Shiqi lived with her fourth sister all the time, and there was a bed next to her for a maid to keep watch for them.

The two sisters woke up and they got up, and the maid had already come in with washing water.

The servant girl began to dress up the two of them, because as I said yesterday, the ladies followed the master, the wife and the old master, and the old ladies went to eat the full moon wine with the whole family.

Of course, I will also bring two maids to help take the young master.

Ye Shiqi wanted to go without any objection, but felt that she wanted to see that little cousin. If she didn't go today after the full moon, she might not see this little baby for a long time.

The store where the second aunt married was just a glance when she passed by the county last time.

I feel that a small shop will be very narrow if a family lives in it.

Ye Shiqi had an idea and didn't tell anyone that before and after she was born, she lived in a room with only a dozen square meters, and seven of her parents and their sisters lived in one room.

As someone said, being able to marry a small businessman's family is better than marrying a villager with mud legs.

It's not that she looks down on mud farmers, how can a country support so many people without farmers.

Ye Shiqi is still so young, so of course she doesn't think so much about the future, more plans need to be grown up before she can implement them.

At present, the family's manor and some wealth accumulated by her parents are just small things, which is far from enough in her mind.

After being reborn and having a golden finger, no matter what, you have to live an extraordinary life.

A peasant girl may remain in her identity forever. Being born does not mean she will be forever, and the future still needs to be created.

Ye Shiqi put on a thick cotton dress, a pink suit and shoes, and a pink hat especially for going out. Looking at her appearance in the mirror, she felt quite satisfied.

At this age, you don't need to hang too much jewelry on your head or body, simple gestures such as silver jewelry, jade bracelets, and necklaces.
