Chapter 254 Benefiting the Village
Qiangwei heard that Lizheng was using his brothers as an example, and couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, no wonder she was able to be a village leader, she had a skill in speaking.Those who listened were very curious, who doesn't want their children to have a future.

"I think so, but the family can barely eat, so how can I have extra money to study?" If you have spare money, who doesn't want your child to go to school and earn a fame back.

"Yeah, not to mention the town school, even a private school can't afford it. The amount of repairs just for the master is not a small amount, let alone the pen, ink, paper and inkstone."

"Speaking of it, we have no skills and can't make money, unlike Brother Cheng Zi who has a way to make money, so we can afford to support the two children." No matter how you hear this, it sounds sour.

Li Zheng saw that what everyone said was almost done, then he cleared his throat and said loudly: "Brother Wenhui is already a scholar in the village, and both of them have a heart, and they discussed with the brothers yesterday, and they are willing to There is no fee to teach in the ancestral hall every day, which can be regarded as benefiting the village."

"What? Lectures, true or false?"

"Oh, it's terrible. If this is the case, I will be the first to send the baby there."

"Lizheng, is what you said true? Why do you only teach on the tenth day of every month?"

Seeing everyone's interest is still very high, Li Zheng nodded, "Because our talented master only rests when he goes to town for ten days, three days a month. Originally, he needs to rest when he comes back, but Wa'er is thinking of going to school in the village. For the children who gave up the rest day to teach the children, we should be grateful."

"It's a good point, but we don't have any books? What should we do? I heard that books are very expensive, can we afford them?"

"Oh, Master Xiucai has a good idea, you can give it a try."

Li Zheng frowned, watched their discussions, and thought for a while, "At first, I don't need to buy books, I will teach how to recognize characters first, and then discuss about buying books after I have learned enough." After speaking, he glanced at Wen Hui, Signal him to say a few words.

Wen Hui also felt that he had to explain it well, stood up and walked in front of the big guy, "Dear uncles and aunts, I also think that if the children in the village know a few words, they will not be blind when they go out. It will be more convenient for you to go out to work after you have learned well, even if you want to be a small shopkeeper in the town, you need to be literate and settle accounts."

Looking at everyone's thoughtful expressions, Wen Hui continued: "Wen Tao and I don't have much time. We can only teach the children every month when the college is on break, and teach a few more words at a time. I will come back to check in the next ten days. It doesn’t matter if there are no books. I will make a writing board and write the words I teach on it, and hang it under the corridor of the ancestral hall, so that the children can copy it at any time. There is no pen and ink. It's okay, first use the branches to draw on the ground, and then you can make a sand table later, just practice slowly."

After Wen Hui finished speaking, the villagers were stunned for a while, and then began to discuss, "If you say that, it feels quite reliable, and you can let my baby try it."

"That's what you say, is this okay?"

"It's only three days a month, how many words can I learn in a year? Will it work?"

"Anyway, it's good if people can remember it. If you don't teach a word, you still don't know a word after a year."

"..."

Qiangwei couldn't help laughing when she heard their discussions, look, some people just don't know how to be grateful, no matter how much you do, you feel that it should be done, no wonder they can only nest in this village and struggle to move an inch.

"Okay, stop arguing. The talented man gave up his rest day to teach his son. You are not willing to do it. This is not forced. If you want to come, let your son go to school by yourself in ten days. If you don't want to come, don't come. , How can there be so many things." Li Zheng looked at the clansmen who were still chewing their tongues, and couldn't help but feel angry, only to think of the cold water splashed by Wei girl at Zheng's house yesterday, now it seems that the girl's eyes are quite vicious.

"Okay, this is the end of this matter, let's eat." Li Zheng waved his hand, he did what he did, and he did it with all his heart.It's up to them to learn it or not.

Because they pretended to be something in their hearts, some people didn't know what to eat, some didn't care, and some looked at Wen Hui and his brother thoughtfully.Li Shi and Qiangwei looked at each other helplessly.

"Mother, why do the brothers prefer to teach in the village without taking a break? It's been ten days in a row, and it's finally time to rest and go to teach. What if I'm tired? Don't the brothers still have Can you take the exam? Will this waste the time of the brothers?" Qiangwei saw that there were a few aunts sitting at their table, and they were also very popular in the village.

When Mrs. Li didn't understand, she smiled comfortingly, "Your brother wants all the children in the village to be able to read and write, so that they can not be deceived when they go out, and they can understand their own names."

"That's right, even if it's a daughter-in-law, it still has face." Dahua also mixed in on the side.

The aunts also became silent when they heard it. What they said was true. If the son can read and write, it will be a matter of face to find a wife in the future.Anyway, no money is accepted, so what if you try it.

After a meal, except for the helpers, everyone dispersed.Let Dahua greet to pick up some scattered tools, and himself and his mother greeted Xiuniang to go back.Now they are concentrating on making summer shirts.Just waiting for someone from Jiang Ji to place an order.

At first they were afraid that Jiang Ji's people would not come, and the clothes would not be sold, but Qiangwei said that there would be other tailors without Jiang Ji. After two days, she would go to the county to have a look. Find better buyers.

"Wei'er, look at the clothes we have rushed out. There are almost twenty pieces. Let's go to the county to have a look tomorrow. It's okay to wait for Jiang Ji all the time. If he doesn't come, we will lose money. "Ms. Li was very worried. It was because she was too impatient that Wei'er was embarrassed.

"Mother, don't worry, these clothes are fashionable, and they will definitely not worry about selling them in the county. At worst, we will open our own tailoring workshop in the county, and they will not be unsalable." Qiangwei sat in the chair, thinking. Finger, speaking seriously, at worst, give Song Yu another one, let her wear it for a banquet or something.

"But I..." Before Mrs. Li finished speaking, Mama Ma walked in with a happy face.

"Please, ma'am, miss, shopkeeper Jiang is here." Madam has been in a hurry for the past two days.

"Please," Qiangwei and Li Shi looked at each other, saying that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here soon, it seems that it is good not to talk about people behind their backs.

"Haha... Congratulations to Mrs. Zheng, Ms. Zheng. I learned that your son is a scholar. He really has a bright future." Following the laughter of shopkeeper Jiang, he walked up to Qiangwei.
