Chapter 17 The location of the school
Little Jiang on the side: Yaya, although she knows that her cooking skills are the best in Lao Xiang’s family, she really can’t compare with the cooks from wealthy families!
"Okay!" Qu Xiang took the chopsticks and picked up the bitter vegetables in the bowl and ate one chopstick. His eyes lit up slightly when he entered, and then he quickly finished the bitter vegetables in his mouth.

The entrance has a refreshing fragrance and a slightly bitter taste. It is obvious that Qu Xiang likes it very much.

After seeing him finish eating, Xiang Tiange directly pushed the plate of cold bitter vegetables closer to him so that he could pick it up himself.

Qu Xiang only came out after breakfast, but even so, he also ate a lot of cold bitter vegetables at Xiangjia, and even drank a bowl of porridge.

The cold bitter vegetables and porridge will fill up Qu Xiang's little belly!

Seeing that he was stretched, Xiang Tiange ran to Mrs. Jiang who was in the kitchen, took some tangerine peels, put them in a bamboo tube used to hold water, and brought them to him.

"Give!"

Qu Xiang was sitting on a stool, being propped up until he could not move. When he saw the bamboo tube in her hand, he asked, "What is this?"

"Drink a little tangerine peel soaked in water, and your stomach won't be so uncomfortable. In the past, I ate a lot of food cooked by my aunt, so my family would prepare some tangerine peel water for me to drink. After drinking it for a while, my stomach would feel better. I feel uncomfortable!" Xiang Tiange said.

Qu Xiang heard what she said, took the bamboo tube in her hand, opened it and took a sip. It was sour and salty, and tasted better than hawthorn water!

Qu Xiang drank up the tangerine peel water in the bamboo tube in just a few times. It wasn't much, just a small bamboo tube.

"This tangerine peel water tastes better than hawthorn water!" Qu Xiang praised.

"Of course, my aunt used the peels of freshly picked citrus, washed them with salt and dried them in the sun. If you like it, I'll ask my aunt later if I can take some out for you to take back?" Xiang Tiange road.

"Yeah, okay." Qu Xiang nodded. He felt that this orange peel tastes better than hawthorn water. From now on, he can drink this delicious orange peel water when he is full!

Seeing him nodding, Xiang Tiange asked him: "What does hawthorn water taste like? I know that the candied haws sold in the town market are made of hawthorn, but after eating the outer layer of sugar, the fruit inside becomes sour. , is hawthorn water so sour?"

"Yeah, it's so sour!"

At least the boiled hawthorn water he drank was very sour!

"When will your family build a school in the village?" Xiang Tiange asked Qu Xiang. She is very concerned about the school now. Although her grandma did not allow her family to collect money when helping to build the school, she received a gift from the gods today. What a white silver ingot I gave you!

Xiang Tiange is still very positive about going to school!
And she felt that reading should be a fun thing. At least when she heard Brother Xiang Hao read to her before, she thought the content in the book was very interesting, and she was very happy to listen to it!
Xiang Hao only read to her a short section of the original text and the paraphrase of "The Analects of Confucius":.
"It must have been these two days. I heard in the morning that my grandfather and the village chief had discussed the location." Qu Xiang said.

"The site selection should be done very quickly. When Uncle Shitou's family built a new house in our village, they chose the address of the new house the day before, and started building it the next day. Everyone in the village came to help, and it was built in two days. Got it!"

Xiang Tiange was very happy to think that she would be able to go to school in a few days.

"Is it that fast?! Doesn't it take at least a month to build a house?" Qu Xiang stared!
This is different from building a house as he knows it!In the past, he had seen people building houses in Beijing. It would definitely not be completed within a month.

"Is this fast enough? My second brother said that my uncle's family was assigned to build a house for him, and it was built in just one day!" Xiang Tiange also glared, why does it take another month? !
How long is a month?Will it take many days? !

Will she have to wait many days before going to school?
It just so happened that at this time, the village chief sent someone to inform Lao Xiangtou, Lao Xiang, Lao Er and Lao San that they should meet at the village chief's house to discuss the Qu family's plan to build a school in Taohua Village.

Seeing grandpa and the others coming out, Xiang Tiange trotted over and hugged her father's thigh: "Dad, grandpa, uncle and uncle, I want to go with you too! I want to see where the school is built, and I will know the school in the future. Where is it!"

"Okay, then let's take you with us!"

Several people nodded in agreement. Construction hadn't started yet, so it didn't hurt to take her with them.

Seeing that they had agreed, Xiang Tiange turned around and invited his new friends, "Qu Xiang, are you going?"

Qu Xiang had never seen the location of the school, so he was interested. When he saw her inviting him, he nodded.

As for the other children in Lao Xiang's family, they ran out to play with their friends in the village after finishing breakfast earlier.

Xiang Tiange went over and took his hand to the village chief's uncle's house. She had been to the village chief's uncle's house, so she knew the location, so she followed Qu Xiang and walked in front, while Lao Xiang and the first few people followed them.

The people behind saw the two children in front holding hands and telling interesting stories about their childhood experiences. The adults all had smiles on their faces.

At the village chief's house, Old Duke Qu was also here. When Lao Xiangtou and others saw Old Duke Qu who was filled with a chilling aura, they could not help but bend their waists, and they did not dare to look at Old Duke Qu.

Xiang Tiange didn't feel this way. When she saw the village chief's uncle talking to a strange old man, she let go of Qu Xiang's hand, ran to the village chief's uncle, raised her head and asked him : "Uncle Village Chief, is this Grandpa Qu who wants to build a school in our village?"

The village chief was shocked when he saw her calling the noble man his grandfather. He quickly pulled her over and apologized to Mr. Qu: "Master Qu, the little boy in the village is ignorant and has offended you. Please don't take offense." "

"Hey, nothing happened." Old Duke Qu waved his hand. He didn't mind at all that Xiang Tiange asked him to be Grandpa Qu. Instead, he looked at her and said with a smile, "You just invited Xiang Bao to eat roasted bird yesterday. The Xiang family’s little baby?”

"Xiang Bao?" Xiang Tiange was wondering who Xiang Bao was. When he saw Grandpa Qu in front of him waving to Qu Xiang not far away, he realized that Xiang Bao was Qu Xiang, so he nodded and said, "Well, yes!"

"Thank you for the roasted bird, I enjoyed it very much!" Mr. Qu said happily because he had roasted bird yesterday and was allowed to have a drink or two by his wife.

"You're welcome, Grandpa Qu. Xiang Bao also gave our family delicious snacks today." Xiang Tiange thought of the Gorgon Rice Cake that Qu Xiang had brought before and they hadn't eaten yet, and smiled happily at the old man in front of him.

Seeing that the two of them were chatting happily and Mr. Qu didn't seem to care, the village chief was relieved. Even if he didn't know the true identity of the person in front of him, since the other person came from Beijing, he must not have the same status. low.
