sailing in that era

Chapter 9

After discussing with the family at night, they plan to hire someone to build a big house in their own land, and immediately!

Originally, my father was going to do business in the county after the summer vacation, but the family needed a strong laborer to help them build a house, so he couldn't do without him.

Peng Baili didn't care about doing business for a while. In fact, it doesn't matter how much the family earns, as long as the family can live well.

He also let his father start a small business because he didn't want him to mess around so that nothing could be done in the end.

In the next ten days or so, the family suddenly became lively, and many people in the village came to visit from home, and everyone was more or less warm to their parents.

When they saw that Peng Baili's family had invited masons to build a new house and planned to build a flat house, everyone was full of envy.

Now everyone in the village lives in thatched houses, and they yearn for flat houses.

Peng Baili saw that his mother suddenly became much more cheerful, and she was confident when facing the second uncle's mother. She always smiled brightly when talking to others, and he felt indescribably happy in his heart.

During this period of time, he was also helping out, sometimes helping his mother to cook for the craftsman, but most of the time, his mother would not let him help and let him read a lot.

The old man has been showing off a lot during this time, and he has exposed most of the things at home.

So many people know that their family makes some money by selling medicinal materials. Although the amount is unclear, it must be a lot.

Therefore, many farmers in the family ran to the mountains, and they also wanted to find some wild Gastrodia elata to make some money. Unfortunately, after half a month, no one found wild Gastrodia elata.

Peng Baili had expected this for a long time, it is not so easy to get rich overnight! !

In addition to reviewing previous books in his spare time during this period, he also began to tutor his two brothers.

The family in this family will only get better and better. With his decades of experience ahead, the family will only become richer and richer in the future. built tree.

"Boss, you have to take good care of your two younger brothers at school. As for your studies, don't relax. Now that you are in junior high school, you have to study hard, and you will be comfortable with an iron rice bowl in the future."

"Baili, I won't say much about you, just study hard..."

"Mom, I must get No.1 this semester like my brother!"

……

On the night when the new semester was coming, the family encouraged Peng Baili to continue to work hard. They were actually quite reassured about him. This was mainly because he had never let them worry about it since the first grade.

Early the next morning, my mother got up early to make breakfast for the three brothers. She cooked a bowl of noodles for each of them, and put on new clothes for the younger brother. She saw that the three brothers were all wearing new clothes and shoes, and she said to her heart Not happy.

The clothes were made during this period. As for the fabrics, they were bought from the county, and the shoes were Jiefang shoes, which were bought during the market. These things are very durable.

It is a little bad, the feet are easy to smell.

After a long time, the taste is really sour!
"Old man, you need to take good care of your clothes, don't get dirty all at once, I can't wash you that much..."

While his mother was nagging, Peng Cheng also came to ask Peng Baili to go to school together.

"Xiaocheng, have you had breakfast yet? Come and have some!"

"No, no, I just ate a big piece of scone."

When the mother saw him, she greeted him quickly, and the fat man waved her hand quickly.

When they arrived at the school, it was only around 07:30. Peng Baili sent the two brothers to their classroom, and then came to their classroom in the first grade of junior high school.

Classrooms are easy to find. There are only nine classrooms in their school, which are from the first grade to the third grade, one class per grade.This phenomenon did not change until after the millennium. At that time, the junior high school was cancelled, and those who wanted to attend junior high school had to go to the countryside. The elementary school also became two classes for first grade.

In Peng Baili's eyes, this school is really old. He still remembers that in the first grade, there was a very long desk in the back row, almost as long as the width of the classroom, and there was no aisle in the middle. Drill under the table.

The tabletop is wide and thick, and there are only six or seven of their first-year students, so they don't even think about moving it.

In addition, the windows are also wide open. In winter, it is useless to burn coals in the teacher's room.

Many of Peng Baili's students have very thin clothes, and they often squeeze each other in the corner to keep warm after class, commonly known as 'squeezing oil residue'.

Peng Baili and Fatty sat in the fourth row by the window. After they entered the teacher, they looked left and right, and then they chose a better table.

I also searched around in the classroom, found two good stools, and then sat down slowly.

At this time, a lot of people came to the classroom, many of whom Peng Baili knew. After all, everyone was upgraded together from elementary school.

When they were in sixth grade, there were more than 90 people in their class, but after entering junior high school, there were only about [-] people, and more than [-] people were directly brushed out.

Some of these people have to repeat their studies, and some just go home to farm.

There are also a few families with better conditions, who go directly to the Xiangshang Central School to study.

"Baili, that kid Zhao Jianguo didn't come, he should have gone to study in the countryside."

"Well, his dad was transferred to the township government last year. His family has gone to the township. It's normal for him to go to the central school."

"Ma Dan, that kid doesn't show loyalty at all, and even said that he studied with us in junior high school!"

……

Peng Baili and the fat man were chatting, and it was eight o'clock in a while.

At this time, a middle-aged fat man walked into the classroom. He had a round face, a big belly, and was wearing a military shirt.

Peng Baili could tell at a glance that their future head teacher, Teacher Cao, was also teaching them English.

Teacher Cao's figure is very intimidating at first glance. Compared with everyone who is a little thinner now, his figure is very conspicuous.

After Mr. Cao stepped onto the podium, he introduced himself, and then asked everyone to introduce themselves.

At this time, everyone is relatively shy. Many people are coy when introducing themselves, and their faces turn red without saying a few words.

"Hi everyone, my name is Peng Baili..."

When he arrived at Peng Baili, Mr. Cao's eyes lit up with his generous self-introduction.

Afterwards, Peng Baili was directly asked to be the class monitor. Although there were highlights in this self-introduction, the main thing was that he himself had a lot of good impressions in the hearts of the school teachers.

After all, the former head teacher often praised him from other teachers.

Just as everyone was introducing themselves, everyone heard a knock on the door, and then the door opened.

Everyone looked towards the classroom door, and many boys' eyes lit up.
