rich concubine

Chapter 1664 Want them all to be literate
In fact, it is normal for the servants who serve the master in the mansion to be illiterate. After all, they are all slaves, which means that the conditions are very bad. How can they have the money to support them?

But inexplicably, when the lady asked who could write, Granny Bai's old face turned red.

It is obviously a very ordinary and normal thing, but it always makes people feel ashamed, as if they are guilty if they don't do it.

She lowered her head and said, "What the lady said is that the old slave only learned to write later, but the words he wrote are completely unreadable."

Rong Yi thought for a while and then said: "It is true that I can't change anything about this phenomenon, but as for the maids in my own yard, they have to learn something from me when they serve me, and they can't do anything with jewelry or money." It can be rewarded, but knowledge cannot be rewarded.”

"My lady, this is..."

"Normally, if you are not busy, you don't have to wait to be ordered. My yard is not very busy to begin with, and there are many free times. It is up to you to teach them how to read and read."

Granny Bai's eyes showed surprise and she said: "Madam... those of us who serve the master well, it would be a huge honor to get a few words from the master. Madam actually let us learn Chinese calligraphy together. This is really better than Any reward is better!"

Rong Yi really didn't think about this before. Now that she saw it, and it was within her ability, she wanted to change something. She didn't want to teach all the maids in her yard how to do it. Wen Nengwu, go out with outstanding literary talent and shock everyone's jaws. The most important thing is to be able to understand the most basic letters and write the simplest sentences clearly.

Ordinary families, whether they are young masters or young ladies, all have to learn, but it is not easy for people of their status. If they can clearly calculate the winnings and calculate the accounts clearly, that is considered a great thing.

In any case, her original status was not much better, but she had not been treated badly in this regard. She used to follow the young lady of the Qin family and had several classes with masters. Her father would also specially let her learn calligraphy and reading. , in fact, when I look back on my childhood, it’s not just my mother’s indifference and disgust, these things are also very important.

I am not a very talented person, but being able to read and write is indeed much more convenient for my life.

If you can help others, then help more.

After she finished explaining, she went over and looked at Qian Xi and Bao Huan. They wrote seriously, and that attitude was enough.

He glanced at the maids in the courtyard and waved to them. After they came over, he said, "Look at them writing, how do you feel?"

When asked this, several people's faces turned red and they were really embarrassed.

Some people said: "The writing is very beautiful..." even though they can't understand it.

Someone said: "It's written very neatly..." even though they couldn't understand it.

Qiu Xin said: "I didn't know they could write before, but now I envy them. For someone like me who can't read a single Chinese character, it's hard for me to hold a book and pretend to be a lady." After saying this, everyone bowed their heads and smiled, and the atmosphere A little more relaxed.

Rong Yi also smiled and said: "You can all learn to read and read in the future. I just told Granny Bai that I will arrange a class for you. When you are not busy, you can learn to write and read." , It doesn’t matter how many books you need to read, at least if it’s simple, you need to be able to read and write simple words smoothly.”

Hearing this, the maids looked at each other in shock. They even saw disbelief in each other's eyes. Can they read? ?Can they too?

Qiu Xin was also dumbfounded. She had been serving people for so long as a maid, but she never knew that one could read and write while serving people? !
Rong Yi added: "It's just that if you start learning now, it will be too late, and it will probably not be easy to learn. When you all learn it and can simply read some books, you will all have the storybook in my study." You can borrow it to read.”

One of the maids happily said: "It's not too late! It's not too late at all. As long as the girl is willing to teach, we will definitely learn hard and learn more knowledge. It will never be too late."

He speaks quickly and has an excited attitude, as if he is afraid that the girl will regret it out of trouble and not let them learn.

Rong Yi smiled happily and breathed a sigh of relief in her heart. After all, these things were just a temporary decision. She was willing to teach them, but she may not be willing to learn them now. If the students are unwilling to learn, the teacher's efforts are useless.

He asked them to watch Qian Xi and Bao Huan writing, and then took out a few of them and asked Granny Bai to take them to Changle and the eldest lady's courtyard to see if anyone else could write and help Duo copy them. A few copies came out.

Granny Bai left quickly. Rong Yi returned to the desk by the window and took out the carefully arranged plan before and went through it twice to see if there was anything missing.

After reading it, she really couldn't find anything that needed improvement. She rubbed her brows and felt a little tired. She knew in her heart that no plan was perfect. There must be deficiencies and inconsiderations in the plans they made. It’s just that I have been focusing on this for the past two days. After the initial writing of each part and the subsequent revisions, this is the best I can think of. I am also running out of inspiration for a while, and it is inevitable that I can’t find any ideas. If there's anything wrong with it, let it sit for two days, go out and look at it again, and then make changes when you think of it.

He got up and called off the love and hugs. The two of them had already written a thick copy and came out. He asked them to go back and rest for a while, and he also went to take a nap.

She slept very well this time, even better than when she took care of the child. After all, it is a mental job. If your brain is used too much, you will inevitably get tired. In addition, since her life has improved, she has become really delicate, and she has It’s been a long time since I felt sorry for myself.

When she woke up again, Granny Bai also came back with a dozen written notes. Rong Yi took a rough look at it, and then looked out the window. There was no sun, and there was a little breeze. It would take another two hours. It was going to rain, so she asked someone to call Qian Xi and Bao Huan over. After they arrived, she taught them to take the things they had written out and politely ask some well-connected people. You should also record the above questions. If time allows, you should also record the people you have asked, where they live, what they do, and what their needs are.

The two maids obviously had some stage fright. They had always served in the inner house. If they were going out, there was no need for them to go out and buy anything. Now, the girl gave them such a task, and they were more or less afraid.

Naturally, Rong Yi would not let the two little girls go out, and asked them to take two secret guards with them, and said: "I'm afraid it's going to rain heavily soon, so you guys go out in a small car. If it starts raining, hurry back. You don’t have to complete these surveys, as long as you carefully record a few households, it will be rewarding for me.”
