Chapter 14 The Wife is Invited

Ah Niu was really quick to do things, and his elder brother came the next day with a basket of eggs.

Although A Niu earns some income from helping out in the village, he still has to save up a basket of eggs for many days.

After sitting down, Shen Yingxia began to observe them.

Both brothers have thick eyebrows and big eyes, but their skin colors are different.His eldest brother Xu has fair skin because he studies indoors all year round.

But the two of them sitting together are really eye-catching.

Although the clothes were washed a little white, they were all very clean.The patches on the trouser legs are finely stitched.Presumably there is a very meticulous bride in the family.

Although the family is not rich, the two of them are frank and frank, and there is no timidity in their demeanor.This calmness alone is better than many people.

A Niu's eldest brother is called "Sun Lei".In the past few days, Shen Yingxia followed the people on the farm and shouted "A Niu, A Niu", and now she also began to wonder about his name.

"Sun Li!" A Niu excitedly responded.

Sun Lei smiled and explained: "My son, our family has been honest and responsible farmers for generations. My father has never read a book, so he named us with the farm tools he is most familiar with. Country people, Lai Ming Good food."

"Mr. Sun, you must have heard what A Niu said yesterday. I invited you here mainly because I want to start a private school."

"Young lady, you're being polite! Yesterday, Ah Niu only said that you had this idea, but he didn't know the specifics. That's why I thought of coming here today to learn more about it."

"Well, the private school I want to open is different from the place where my husband studied before."

Sun Lei nodded to signal Shen Yingxia to continue.

"First, the students in the private school are all children of the peasant family, and they may not be able to become officials after entering school. So the master can't be like other masters, full of peaches and plums.

"The purpose of running private schools is to let them know right from wrong, understand the truth, and know some commonly used words, so that they can have more ways of life in the future.

"Secondly, we want them to be able to master basic arithmetic and market conditions, so that they will not be deceived whether it is paying food taxes or going shopping on the street.

"If there are diligent and honest people who are willing to work in Zhuangzi after finishing their studies, I will do my best to arrange a suitable livelihood."

Sun Lei also agrees very much: "My son's worries are exactly what I think. Relying on the sky is obviously not a long-term solution."

"Of course, if there is someone with outstanding talent that day, it's not a bad idea to subsidize one or two." Shen Yingxia added.

"I, Shen Yingxia, will be responsible for the treatment of the master. How about just paying the usual master's engagement money?"

Sun Lei hurriedly thanked him: "My son's private school is for the benefit of our Sun Family Village. Although Lei has little knowledge, he also knows these principles. Yueyin, Lei is only willing to accept half of it!"

"In that case, let the other half be used to add another meal to the children! I don't know if the husband has a bride?"

Sun Lei scratched his head shyly: "The bride's name is 'Xue Niang'."

"How busy is Xueniang?" Shen Yingxia saw that Sun Lei was reasonable and unwilling to accept Yueyin, so she wanted to pull it out again.

"Well, Lei has been studying for many years, and Xueniang is in charge of the family. Xueniang is gentle and never blames me. Lei knows that I have really failed her these years!" Sun Lei did not hide it.

"Then let her come to the school to help you, cleaning, cooking, and taking care of the children. There is a lot of work! Don't let Xueniang do it for nothing, and the monthly money will be given according to the share of the village's female envoys. Good work, there will also be rewards." silver."

There are scholars in the family, and the bride must bear the responsibilities originally assumed by the husband.This kind of family, if you don't pay attention, it will be like chickens flying like dogs.

Looking at the harmonious relationship between the two, and thinking of the finely stitched patches on Sun Lei's trousers, Xueniang must be a very good-tempered and diligent person.

And the wife she invites may not be so outstanding in knowledge, but her character must be good.

"As for the school, it's up to the master to discuss it with Sun Weng and choose a suitable courtyard."

"Here." Sun Lei replied.

"About Shu Xiu, what do you think, Master?"

Sun Lei pondered for a moment, and then said: "Although Sunjia Village is not impoverished, if you want money, I'm afraid no one will send the children here."

"That's what I mean too. And the original intention of running a private school is not to make money." Shen Yingxia nodded.

If they don't charge a penny, they won't cherish the opportunity to study. It's really difficult to decide how to order a bundle.
