After traveling to ancient times, I became a superb shrew

Chapter 44 Study Together

After getting busy, Mr. Gu asked, "What are you doing with so many calculations?"

Mo Li replied: "Give it to my younger brothers and sisters. They all like to learn abacus. I want to teach them everything I know."

Mr. Gu's eyes widened, and he really wanted to ask if he could follow along to learn.

The biggest regrets in his life are three things: first, he did not learn carpentry; second, he did not learn abacus; third, he did not see his eldest daughter return in victory.

Three regrets, one of which seems to be possible.

But Mr. Gu has a thin skin. He is already an old man, and he learned abacus with a group of hairy kids. If word spreads, does he still want this old face?
He sawed off a piece of wood and asked, "Don't you still want to take the Juren examination, how can you teach them?"

Mo Li didn't hide his words, and said directly: "The head of the family asked Dong Rong to teach to pay off the debt. He is a child. I am afraid that he will misunderstand the younger generation. I will teach him personally."

Old man Gu's eyes flashed: "Can I let the stinky girl in the family go to school with me? But don't worry, I will definitely not take advantage of you. I happen to have some millet at home. How about using millet as a bundle?"

Mo Li hastily waved his hands: "Siblings and sisters just want to learn it, they don't need to pay the repair fee, the Patriarch said, how can the whole family accept Grandpa's repair fee?"

"Your wife said it's your wife's business. Our family can't take advantage of it for nothing. We can't afford the extra money. We can still afford a few catties of millet."

Mr. Gu made a final decision, "Just ten catties of millet a month, let Taozi go alone, and come back and teach her younger siblings after learning."

Mo Li waved his hand again: "Grandpa, Xiaomi really doesn't need it, you can let your younger siblings come together, just bring an extra stool."

Mr. Gu shook his head seriously: "Just let Taozi go."

Taozi has learned to come back, and when teaching Menger, he can learn a little from the sidelines, so this old face can be preserved.

There is no good harvest yet, and Mr. Gu can't bring out ten catties of millet. He agreed to send it to Mo Li after the good harvest. Mo Li refused desperately. He couldn't refuse at all. Home.

When they went back, both Gu Yu and Gu Nuo at home stared at him with their dark eyes open.

He touched his face: "Is there something on my face?"

Gu Yu blinked: "What about the abacus, is it ready?"

Gu Nuo poked his head and looked at Mo Li's hand behind his back: "Brother Li, please sit down."

He had never been so polite before, and when he heard that Mo Li specially made beads for them, he was excited for a long time.

Even Zhao Erya and Gu Jinyu, who are not interested in abacus, are looking forward to it. After all, for them, abacus is something only scholars and businessmen have, and they will have an abacus of their own. It's unbelievable.

Mo Li took out the beads wrapped in cloth in his hand: "The abacus can only be done after the last process is completed."

Gu Nuo leaned over and said, "The abacus is actually done. It's a small one, the same size as Brother Li's abacus, but it's not smooth."

Mo Li tore off all the cloth from the hem of his underwear, and each of them gave out a piece: "Use the cloth to keep rubbing and polishing until the beads become smooth."

What he makes is a slightly smaller abacus, with seven gears, two up and down five, and one abacus has 49 beads.

Each of the four boys held a large handful of beads, found a corner, and polished them carefully, as if they were treating the most precious jade.

The night was dark.

When Gu Tao returned home from studying for the first time, a whole yard was there, all staring at her.

Old Master Gu coughed: "Whatever you learned today, teach Menger to learn it too."

Gu Meng had a bitter face: "Grandfather, can I not learn, I don't like to read, and I don't like to do arithmetic..."

"You don't want to learn, I don't want to teach!" Gu Tao snorted, "Grandpa, Brother Mo Li is really good, he can do everything, and I will definitely become a person as good as Brother Mo Li in the future."

"You girl, you must teach." Old Master Gu said sternly, "Meng'er, if you don't study hard, don't call me Grandpa in the future."

Gu Mengku had a face full of laughter, so he had no choice but to accept his fate and follow Gu Tao to learn how to read characters and learn the basic concepts of abacus.

Mrs. Sun sat on the side, very upset.

Dafang can read and write because his eldest niece has four powerful husbands.

Sanfang was able to go and learn with her because the old man and the lady were eccentric.

They are all grandchildren of the Gu family, why only Gu Tao and Gu Meng can learn these things.

Sun said: "Since Meng'er is unwilling to learn, then don't force the child, Luer is also very smart, let her learn along with her."

The old lady Gu said disapprovingly: "Whatever you learn, you are just a muddy leg, and it is useless to learn it."

"Mother, you said that." Mrs. Sun chuckled, "Isn't my eldest niece in business? If we, Luer, also do business in the future, we need to know how to read and write to keep accounts. It's not too much to learn at this time." Night."

Gu Lu twisted her body, she didn't want to learn at all, she would rather be asked by Grandma to dig wild vegetables.

However, under her mother's cold gaze, she could only speak against her heart: "Grandma, grandpa, I want to learn."

Mr. Gu exhaled a puff of smoke and waved his hand: "All the children in our family, regardless of gender, learn together."

Mrs. Sun was dissatisfied again. The three-bedroom had four children, and her family only had two children, so it was their second-bedroom who suffered the most.

The children were learning today's fresh knowledge outside, Sun took her man back to the room, muttering: "I will definitely conceive this month, Gu Youjin, you come here a few more times, this time I must conceive another daughter , otherwise our family will always suffer..."

Although Gu Youjin already had two daughters, they were still too few, and he still wanted to have another child. After all, the eldest sister and the third brother all had three or four children, and he only had two. At this time, the more the population, the better, he is still young, and the wife is also young, as long as he works hard, he will not worry about the population.

The two worked in the back room.

Learning outside is in full swing.

Gu Tao taught, and five younger siblings gathered around to listen together. Mr. Gu was smoking on the surface, but in fact he was listening carefully. .

Gujia Village in the early morning was shrouded in hazy sunlight.

At this time, Gu Qing had brought Mo Li, Gu Yu and Gu Nuo to Youshui Town in Gu Jiang's bullock cart. Today is the big day for Qing Han Dessert to open.
