The koi wife dressed as the male protagonist of the imperial examination

Chapter 80 Interest Exchange
Use a wooden stick to practice calligraphy on a sand table, and you can write again after flattening it, so that you don’t need to spend money on buying pens, ink, paper and inkstones when you start learning.

The reason why it is said that scholars are valuable is that ordinary rural people cannot afford to read books. .

Isn't it because, except for Shu Xiu, if he has to go to school, he needs to buy books, pens, inks, papers and inkstones.

These people in the family only provide for a scholar like San Lang, isn't it because of this reason?

Even if Saburo doesn't study hard and has good grades, he still has to buy books, pens, ink, and paper all the time, and the monthly expenses are quite a lot.

Now that Lao Li's family doesn't have the confidence to provide for several people to study at the same time, Fang Qingqing has to find a way to reduce expenses.

The sand table was very simple. Old man Li brought his two sons together and made a large sand table for all four grandchildren in less than half an hour.

Just put them in the yard, Fang Qingqing just taught them how to write.

For her, holding a branch to write and draw on a sand table is easier than writing with a brush.

Therefore, Fang Qingqing's handwriting is very beautiful.

She wrote one, and a few nephews were scrambling next to them, writing stroke by stroke, still chanting.

Fang Qingqing wrote very slowly, starting from the simplest one, two, three, and four, and taught very seriously.

Even if Da Mao Er Mao and the others wrote it just like that ghostly talisman, Li's mother looked at it, her eyes were moist.

How wonderful, not only my son, but also my grandchildren will be able to read and write.

Their old Li's house is really going to change the lintel!

In the past, Xiucai Lang occasionally took the time to teach his nephews for a few days. Basically, he taught the characters he could read this time, and he forgot them all when he went home and took the test next time.

I don’t need to mention writing, it’s just that I don’t have this condition at home.

Now Fang Qingqing's proposal is just right for the children of Lao Li's family.

Therefore, Fang Qingqing is very busy every day, besides her own reading and writing, she also has to teach a few children.

Besides, she took the time to learn medical skills and thought about ways to make money. What reason is there to openly take out the food she hoarded in the space warehouse?

In this way, I don't spend much time thinking about my husband who has gone to the provincial capital to study.

The old Li's family didn't deliberately mention Li Sanlang in front of Fang Qingqing, but because of their consideration, they were afraid that the child would not be able to bear the pain of the separation of husband and wife and cry.

Little did they know that Fang Qingqing was so busy right now that she didn't care whether Li Sanlang was at home or not.

Anyway, what the system settles with her recently is the points she can get after the children are literate, and Fang Qingqing is busy with various things every day, and Fang Qingqing forgets that she is married and her husband is away from home for a while.

As a result, on this day, Li Sanlang's classmates who were still in the county school came to Hongqiao Village in person and sent a letter to the old Li's family.

There are two letters in total, specifically specifying that they are for parents and daughter-in-law respectively.

There are everyone, and there is also a small family. No one thinks there is a problem with this arrangement.

That classmate has relatives in the provincial capital, and he runs back and forth every month. Li Sanlang noticed it before the Chinese New Year.

So I specifically told my classmates that when he went to study at the government school, he might also write a letter back.

I can ask my classmate's relatives to help bring them back, and the enthusiastic classmate said at the time that I can help him make a trip and send them back to Lao Li's house for his parents every time.

Of course, classmates are not just purely kind, this is a relationship of benefit exchange.

It's just that the price is something Li Sanlang can afford and is willing to pay, so it doesn't matter, and every time he sends a letter back, he can also ask his classmates to help him read the letter to his family.

What's more, if the family members have something they want to say to him, they can also ask their classmates to write it down and then ask their relatives to help them take it to the provincial capital school.

Although the little daughter-in-law has also started to learn to read with him, Li Sanlang knows that Qingqing is smart but dare not think arrogantly that his daughter-in-law is a genius. It took less than a month to improve to the point where he can read and write letters independently.

So the old Li's family counted one by one, and they all looked at Saburo's classmate eagerly, listening to him read the letter carefully.

In the letter, Li Sanlang stated that he had successfully arrived in the provincial capital, and that he was fortunate enough to be admitted to the school with the appreciation of his master.

Classes have started officially now, and all board and lodging are in the school of the government school. The teacher here is kind and friendly, and his classmates are friendly. His life is settled well and so on.

It is typical to report good news but not bad news. Anyway, Li Sanlang wrote in his letter that there are good places everywhere in the provincial capital, beauties are kind, and it is heaven for him to study there.

Not to mention Fang Qingqing, even Li's father, Li's mother, Li Dalang, and the others didn't quite believe it. Saburo just didn't want to worry them.

But everyone knows that he has settled there and is very happy, and the township examination will be in a few months.

Saburo said that the previous exams were just the beginning, and only when he passed the provincial exam did his road to the imperial examination really begin.

Then, the classmate said, if the family has anything to say, they can tell him that he can help write it down, and then he can also ask his relatives to take it to the provincial capital for Xiuping.

The old Li's people were stunned for a while, but Fang Qingqing was the first to realize that Xiuping was talking about Li Sanlang?
It's just that his family members are used to calling him by his nickname, and his master's first name is not good, but Li Sanlang only uses it when he is studying outside.

As for the letter to the daughter-in-law alone, Fang Qingqing just smiled shyly and said:

"I'm also learning to read characters recently, and I have a copy of "Thousand Characters" in my hand, and I can try to read it by myself."

Everyone expressed their understanding. The letter might be a private conversation between the young couple, so of course it is inconvenient for everyone to hear it.

The classmates didn't understand the actual situation, but the rest of the old Li's family was different. They all thought that Fang Qingqing had learned a lot and now he could read and write letters independently.

Fang Qingqing happened to have the same thoughts, next time she could try to ask her to read the letter.

Anyway, she can teach the children even if she is already studying. As for the progress of study, as long as Li Sanlang doesn't tell his family clearly.

They don't understand, they just say that they have learned to read letters. Isn't reading letters a matter of course?

The Li family didn't know that the correspondence between Li Sanlang and his classmates was mutually beneficial, but they only thought that they would bring the letters for him, and they even made a special trip to deliver them.

In line with the principle of reciprocity, I treated Li Sanlang's classmates well, and when he left, I specially put some soy milk and bean curd in a bamboo tube for him to take back.

It can be given to other students to drink, or other things, this is also Fang Qingqing's calculation.

It can be regarded as a means of publicity. She intends to expand the business of the Li family, so it is not just a stall.

If you can open a store in the county, it should be the easiest to attract business next to the school, right?

And I heard brother Sanlang say that some students come from good families, and the food in the academy can fill their stomachs.

Every once in a while, there are students who are not short of money, and use their lunch break and evening break to come out to eat.

If he can build a reputation among the students, the business will be considered stable in the future.

　There is one more update, it will be later.I'm sorry, I was away today, but I have to do nucleic acid first when I come back. I have been waiting in the queue for a long, long time... Hey, pray, I hope the situation can get better soon!
