It is difficult for the farmer's sister

Chapter 616 Teaching Words

Meng Mingzhou didn't mind, just asked, "Have you ever learned characters?"

Zhang Yan shook his head, "I just heard the patriarch's cousin read it, and I remembered it when my wife taught my sister yesterday."

Meng Mingzhou thought for a while and asked, "Do you want to study?"

Zhang Yan nodded, and shook his head embarrassingly, "My family's conditions are not good. My mother took us three brothers and sisters alone. It's very hard. I really don't have money to send me to study. I, I just want to read a few words. so as not to be deceived."

Meng Mingzhou was puzzled, "Tricked?"

The smile on Zhang Yan's face disappeared, and he said sadly, "Well, our village is a resettlement village for disaster victims, not to mention people with mixed surnames, and they are very poor."

"A few days ago, the daughter of our neighbor's uncle's family wanted to go to Zhoucheng to work to earn some money to supplement the family. Who knew that someone tricked her into signing a deed of prostitution..."

Meng Mingzhou said sternly, "Why didn't anyone see it before signing?"

Zhang Yan didn't answer, but Meng Mingzhou understood that this Majia Village is not like Sujia Village, which is composed of several ethnic groups. There is no ethnic group, and the village chief of the village will only help if it is beneficial.

Meng Mingzhou and the others did not eat with the Zhang family, but borrowed their kitchen, and Xiaotao cooked a table breakfast with the food she brought.

After dinner, when he was about to pack up and leave, Deputy Peng came and called out Meng Mingzhou. After a while, Meng Mingzhou came back and said to the girls who were packing up, "Don't clean up now."

Su Rui was bending over to support her son's two little hands and teaching him to walk. Hearing this, she handed her son over to Mrs. Guo, approached Meng Mingzhou and asked, "What's wrong?"

Meng Mingzhou rubbed his brows and said, "It's not a big deal. Didn't it rain last night? It washed away part of the bridge we were going to cross. Vice-General Peng has already taken the young men from Majia Village to repair it. .”

Su Rui was puzzled, "It rained last night? Why didn't I know?"

Meng Mingzhou chuckled, "You sleep like a pig, it's no wonder you can hear it!"

Su Rui stared, and changed the subject, "...But, is it okay if we leave a day late?"

"It's okay. My budget is forty days. This is just a day's delay. If it's really too late later, it's okay to drive at night."

Hearing what Meng Mingzhou said, Su Rui felt relieved.

At the home of the village head of Majia Village, Liu Jiayu heard that she would not be able to leave today, and she might have to stay for another night. Incense often.

Although the girls had laid two layers of mattresses on the kang last night, and the room was not too shabby, she still felt uncomfortable. She thought she could escape today, but who knew she would stay for another night!
Seeing Liu Jiayu's face, Liu Jiali knew that her young lady was ill again, and she didn't want to hang out in front of her, so she said to Mrs. Liu, "Father, I want to take my brother out for a walk."

Master Liu didn't object, but just said, "Put on your veiled hat and come back before lunch."

Liu Jiali obediently agreed, they drove all the way yesterday, because the carriage was uncomfortable, so they didn't have time to enjoy the scenery along the way, and today they can't go, so it's better to go out more.

Liu Jiayu looked at Liu Jiali's sister and brother who were happily going out, curled her lips in disdain, and muttered in a low voice, what a cheap person who has never seen the world, what's so interesting about a village.

In the backyard of Ma's house, Meng Mingzhou asked his servants to move a table into the yard, and put out paper, ink, pens and inkstones.

Su Rui was puzzled, "What are you doing?"

Meng Mingzhou didn't hide anything, and talked about meeting the two boys of the Zhang family this morning, "I got up early to meet the eldest son of this family, and I secretly taught my younger brother the poem you taught that little girl to recite yesterday, so we won't leave today anyway. , thinking of silently writing the Three-Character Classic and the Thousand-Character Classic to teach them how to read.”

Su Rui looked at Meng Mingzhou who had started to write silently, and was stunned for a moment. She really didn't expect Meng Mingzhou to have such an idea.

Seeing that Su Rui didn't speak, Meng Mingzhou raised his head and looked at her, smiled and continued, "I remember when I first started receiving education, my grandfather hugged me and said a lot of truths, and the one I remember most clearly is , His old man said that knowledge is a sharp edge that broadens one's mind and eliminates prejudice."

"And I have no way to teach them more principles, I just want to make them more literate as much as possible, so as not to be deceived again."

"Okay, I'll help you too."

Su Rui looked at Meng Mingzhou with gentle eyes, look, this is the man she fell in love with, her son's father, Zhang is not only handsome, but also has outstanding ability and character.

Holding the written Three-Character Classic and Thousand-Character Classic, Meng Mingzhou went to the front yard to find Zhang Yan and his brothers, and told them about teaching them how to read.

Hearing this, Zhang Yan asked excitedly, "Master Meng, I, can I invite the neighbor's Dahu and Erhu to learn together, the one who was cheated a few days ago is their sister."

Meng Mingzhou smiled, "Of course."

He is very happy that the children are willing to learn. It is not afraid to learn late. As long as they are willing to learn, it will be good.

Su Rui is also teaching the little girl to read and write in the backyard. The time is tight and there is only one day. Although Su Rui only taught the little girl to write her own name, the names of her mother and two brothers, she looked at the little girl with a happy face. At that time, my heart still couldn't help throbbing.

Hey, I'm still poor, but there's nothing I can do about it. After all, even in such a developed modern country, isn't there still a place where people can't get rid of blindness?

Before dawn the next day, we were about to set off.

Su Rui, who was sitting in the carriage, looked at the little girl from the Zhang family who was reluctant to part with her and couldn't help waving her hands. Her heart was full. She also stretched out her hand and waved at her. She didn't sit back until she could no longer see anyone. Turning around, he saw Meng Mingzhou holding a piece of paper and looking at something.

"What are you looking at?"

Meng Mingzhou handed her the paper in his hand, "Look at the Three Character Classic and Thousand Character Classic written by Zhang Yan."

Su Rui looked at the earthworms on the paper and couldn't bear to look directly at them, but she continued to read seriously, "It's not bad for someone who is writing for the first time."

Meng Mingzhou took back the paper, folded it carefully, and sighed, "Yeah, it's really good to write it like this for the first time, and he wrote it overnight."

After Meng Mingzhou taught them how to read and write yesterday, he knew that they didn't have paper, ink, brushes and inkstones, so he left a lot for them.
