Strategy to develop champions

Chapter 27

Seeing that Zhao Caifeng didn't say anything, Mrs. Yang didn't ask any more. She always loved her daughter and knew that she was smart. If she hadn't mistakenly believed in the Lin family and made Zhao Caifeng a widow, there might be too many people now. The one who wants to marry Zhao Caifeng!
Mrs. Yang just sighed, and said gloomily: "It's all my fault. At that time, I was thinking about sending my third son to a private school. The Lin family sent me 20 taels of silver. I saw that this was enough for my third son for several years. I repaired it, and when I was happy, I delayed you, and now I regret it..." Yang Shi said, and couldn't help wiping her tears again.

It was the first time that Zhao Caifeng heard Yang mention this. It turned out that she was a widow because of this reason, so it is not surprising. Not to mention ancient people, even modern people, there are many patriarchal parents. It's not surprising that his son went to private school earlier and did such a thing.

"What about the silver?" Zhao Caifeng asked.

"When you were brought back that day, I was so angry that I threw the money on the matchmaker's face on the spot. I knew I should have kept it, so I could add something to you." Yang only sighed.

When Zhao Caifeng heard what Yang said, she clapped her hands and applauded: "Mother, you can relieve your anger by doing this. 20 taels of silver is nothing. I will earn you 200 taels in the future. Just wait."

Yang told Zhao Caifeng what was in her heart, and she felt a little better in her heart: "I was blamed for this matter, and I was greedy for the 20 taels of silver. If I hadn't been dazzled by the money, why would I delay it?" I’ve spent your whole life with you, and now I want to understand, your brother’s Shuxiu and my mother are slowly saving up, and it’s not too late to let him go to school after saving enough. If he has this talent, even if he goes to school later, it will still be delayed. It’s nothing, but if I do wrong things again for money, I won’t feel at ease in my life.”

Zhao Caifeng saw that Yang's words were emotional, and knew that she really knew she was wrong. After all, from the time she got along with her, she could also see that Yang really loved her.

"Mom, you're right, we mother and I will work hard together, and there will always be a way to send my brother to a private school."

Yang's mood is much better now, she only touched two eggs from the egg basket, and wanted to scramble a tender egg to add to the children's food, when she put her hand into the egg basket, she knew that there were few eggs in it. up.Zhao Caifeng only scratched her forehead, and said a little embarrassedly: "I'm going to Qian Carpenter's house, and I'm too embarrassed to go empty-handed, so I just..."

Yang only smiled and said: "You're right, if you hire someone to do something, of course you can't go empty-handed."

Rarely, Yang made scrambled eggs, and the whole family was very satisfied with it. Even Zhao Caidie also ate two more mouthfuls of millet soup.After dinner, Zhao Wu took Zhao Caidie to play in the room, Zhao Wen was tired with Yang Shi all afternoon, washed up and fell asleep.

Mrs. Yang was sitting at the door, sewing by the moonlight outside. Zhao Caifeng couldn't bear to see her squinting, so she picked up a piece of cow dung from the corner of the yard.The cow dung had been in the sun for several days, and the smell was already hard and smelly, so Zhao Caifeng set the cow dung on fire with a torch.

"Mother, come and sit here, at least there is some light." Yang looked at Zhao Caifeng and didn't know what kind of dark ball he lit, but it really caught fire, but it didn't burn like firewood. After a while it went out, I felt strange, I just moved the stool over and asked: "What is this thing that can burn so vigorously?"

Zhao Caifeng smiled and said, "This is the cow dung I asked Xiao Wu to pick up that day."

Yang just nodded, and said strangely: "Then how do you know that cow dung can be burned?"

"This... this..." Zhao Caifeng didn't know how to answer Yang, when she suddenly saw Song Mingxuan coming out of the room next door to look for the moonlight in the yard, so she smiled and said, "Brother Song told me Yes, he said cow dung can be burned!"

Song Mingxuan was holding the scroll in his hand at this time, with a thoughtful expression on his face, and he didn't hear what Zhao Caifeng said, so he raised his head with a confused face, and saw Yang looking at him with a smile: "Sure enough, it's you Brother Song is knowledgeable, but scholars are different!"

Seeing that Mrs. Yang had been fooled, Zhao Caifeng picked up a piece of cow dung and went to the next door to find Song Mingxuan with a fire bag.Zhao Caifeng first lit the cow dung on the ground, then looked up at Song Mingxuan who was sitting on the edge of the stone table, and said, "Brother Song, come and sit here."

Zhao Caifeng has something to ask Song Mingxuan, so her attitude is very modest, and her address has changed from "scholar" at the beginning to "Brother Song".In fact, Zhao Caifeng also wanted to understand it. Calling Song Xiucai is indeed a little strange. They are neighbors all these years, and Zhao Caifeng used to call Song Mingxuan that way.
