Time Travel: My Wife Is Busy in Farming

Tang Xiaoman and the others played until nearly midnight before rushing home. Qian Musheng took his entourage Xiaostool home with him.

On the way back, Tang Xiaoman was very satisfied with Su Pingan's performance today.

With so many people watching at that time, Tang Xiaoman was really afraid that Su Pingan wouldn't be able to read out all the words on the note. Fortunately, Su Pingan was better at reading and writing these days, so the effort she spent teaching him in reading and writing was not in vain.

However, if Su Pingan still needs to learn more knowledge, Tang Xiaoman does not have that much time to teach him. In the future, the workshop and greenhouse technology will also need to be done by himself.

Tang Xiaoman said that he was not very versatile. If Su Pingan was sent to a school in the town, he, as an adult, would naturally not be able to sit in the school with peace of mind, and it would easily cause a psychological burden on him.

In the end, Tang Xiaoman decided to invite a teacher to his home to tutor Su Ping'an.

Just in time, Su Ping'an told Tang Xiaoman that a Jinshi named Li came back from the village. Because of his straightforward personality, he often offended others in the court. He resigned and returned to his hometown soon after becoming an official.

Tang Xiaoman thought that this was also an opportunity, and he was quite a suitable candidate. His straightforward personality shows that he is very upright and must be very knowledgeable, otherwise he would not have been able to pass the imperial examination from a small village by relying on his own ability.

It was better to choose the right day than to hit it. Tang Xiaoman thought that he might as well take Su Ping'an with him to become a disciple tomorrow.

The next morning, Tang Xiaoman took Su Pingan with jam and some fruit gifts. Su Pingan was still in a wheelchair. When he was at home these days, he could also hop around on one foot.

Mr. Li lives in the southeast corner of the village, which is also relatively remote. The house has two main rooms. It seems that the house is relatively solid, at least it has a stone foundation.

In fact, Mr. Li and his wife are the only ones at home now. This is their ancestral home, and it used to be considered a scholarly family in the village.

Looking up at the brick doors and large windows and wide doors of the house in front of me, it is very neat. Even though it is very old, you can see that a lot of thought went into building this house.

The two wing rooms on the left and right are made of adobe, but the walls are plastered with yellow mud, and they don't look dilapidated at all after being corroded by wind and rain.

In the corner of the yard between the main house and the side house, there is a chicken rack, a pigsty, a well for drawing water, and a jujube tree.

Behind the house, you can see a small garden several feet wide, which is enough for growing vegetables at home.

But as expected, he is a scholar and keeps his house neatly. I saw that this gentleman is quite tidy.

The two men drove the bullock cart over. After bolting the cart, they took the gifts they brought in with them.

There was an old lady with gray hair washing vegetables by the well in the yard.

"Hello, is this Mr. Li's home?"

The old woman raised her head and looked at the person in front of her with some confusion. She was dressed as a very beautiful young lady.

She nodded and said, "Yes! May I ask who you are?"

In fact, I am from the same village, but I have never met him.

But after seeing Su Ping'an, the old lady was still somewhat impressed by him.

"Isn't this the third son of the old Su family? Why are you here?"

Tang Xiaoman thought that since they knew each other, they should be able to handle things easily.

"I want to find Mr. Li. I wonder if he is here?"

"My wife is not at home, he has gone out."

After the old lady finished speaking, she continued to pick vegetables. It seemed that she was not that familiar with Su Pingan. He didn't even ask why Su Ping'an came here to see Mr. Li, but the sound of an old man coughing came from the room.

Su Ping'an looked up at the main room. It was obvious that Mr. Li was at home, but he didn't know why his wife told him that he was not at home.

Sure enough, Su Pingan had a weird temper. Su Pingan didn't dare to speak. Tang Xiaoman quickly shouted into the room: "Hello, Mr. Li, I am Su Pingan's daughter-in-law, Tang Xiaoman. I am here to become your disciple."

After a while, a very loud voice came from inside.

"If you don't work as a good farmer, how can you learn to read and write? Young people should just do their jobs honestly, right?"

This was said to Su Pingan, in order to dispel Su Pingan's unrealistic thoughts.

But Tang Xiaoman then said to the people in the room: "Mr. Li, there is no distinction between reading and acquiring knowledge. Everyone has the right to learn knowledge. Even if you have been a farmer your whole life, you still have the right to learn culture."

As soon as these words were spoken, there was no movement in the room inside for a long time.

After a while, an old man came out of it. The old man looked energetic and polite. It was obvious at a glance that this man must be very capable.

"Hello Mr. Li!"

Su Pingan and Tang Xiaoman were standing at the door of their home waiting for Mr. Li, looking very polite and well-behaved.

Mr. Li didn't embarrass them that much. What Tang Xiaoman said just now was surprising to think that this womanly family could be so sensible.

"Is this your wife?"

Mr. Li asked.

"Well, she is my wife."

Su Pingan glanced at Tang Xiaoman, and then answered very proudly.

Indeed, Su Ping'an felt that Tang Xiaoman was indeed very proud of herself.

Every time someone asks who this beautiful daughter-in-law is, Su Pingan always proudly replies: "This is my daughter-in-law!"

But having such a beautiful and capable daughter-in-law really makes Su Pingan very proud.

Tang Xiaoman hurriedly delivered the gift and said many nice words, which made Mr. Li very happy.

Mr. Li finally agreed to be Su Pingan's teacher, and asked Su Pingan to spare an hour every day, which is currently two hours, to teach at Tang Xiaoman's home.

After all, Su Pingan's legs and feet are inconvenient now, so the matter has been settled. Of course, teaching requires money. Tang Xiaoman gives Mr. Li fifty cents a month.

In fact, a gentleman who teaches in the town can only earn 80 cents, and he still works full-time.

It takes a whole day to teach, and Mr. Li only teaches for two hours a day, which is a pretty high salary.

In fact, it was Tang Xiaoman's words that finally moved this eccentric Mr. Li. People are indeed divided into three, six, and nine grades, but in the end, even farmers like Su Ping'an, who came from the lowest level, need to be literate, as long as this person has If you want to learn, then give him a chance.

The reason why Tang Xiaoman invited Mr. Li to his home was so that Xiao Taohua and the other children could study together.

If children like these in the village, who are as old as peach blossoms, can study and study at this age, it would be a very wonderful thing.
