Reborn Country Overlord

Chapter 6 Country Morals

The three brothers on the opposite side looked at Zhang Tao with disdain, their faces full of contempt, they didn't believe Zhang Tao's words at all, and they couldn't deceive anyone with this trick!
"Are you afraid? Do you think you can scare us by saying that my mother is here? This little trick can also be used to scare people? Think of us three brothers as fools. Let me tell you, don't beat your kid to tears today. The three brothers have your surname! My mother didn’t come back so soon.”

Zhang Tao looked helplessly at the three brothers rushing over, these three bear children were really difficult to deal with.But before he was ready to strike again, a loud roar suddenly came from behind the three brothers: "Hey, you three bastards have hard wings? Now even the old lady can't scare you, are you planning to rebel?"

The three brothers who were rushing towards him immediately stopped their steps when they heard the voice behind them. Looking back, their old mother was holding a bamboo basket with a few cabbages in her hand, and she was looking at him angrily.

The three of them were so frightened by the situation that they couldn't care less about admonishing Zhang Tao anymore, and ran to their house, as if they were going to hide in the village.

Children at this time will use this trick. If you go home directly, you will definitely be beaten. If you hide in another place, you will not be beaten if you go back after the adults in the family are angry.So if an adult gets angry, generally the smarter children will hide, and some will come up to get beaten honestly, of course there are exceptions.

"Run, run as hard as you can! Don't go home tonight if you have the ability, or see how I deal with you when I go back. If you go home and kneel now, I might not beat you."

Wang Ming's old lady didn't chase her three brats, but stood there calmly and shouted at the three brothers who ran away in a panic.

The three brothers who were running over there immediately didn't dare to run away when they heard this. It seemed that they had been threatened by such words often, and they had already formed a natural reflex.

The three brothers looked at each other dejectedly, and complained that Wang Ming shouldn't have brought them here to fight. They had long forgotten that this was how the three brothers went out to fight together before, and then walked obediently to their own house.

At this time, although the people in the country are not very rich in material, they are indeed very rich in spirit, just like Zhang Tao's fight today.The children of the two families got into a fight, and the adults took their own children home to teach them a lesson, even if they were pretending, they would pretend to be others.

Therefore, adults will never blush because of children's fights. In their eyes, children's fights are normal. This kind of thing is blushing, and the relationship between them is very harmonious.

But after more than ten years, at that time, we were materially rich, but our spirituality and morality did not improve. The adults played when the children did not win. In the end, the fight between two children turned into a battle between two families. , this kind of thing is often seen.

Moreover, the relationship between adults has also become indifferent. It is common to see neighbors quarrelling with knives and weapons, and even killing people for small things.

Mrs. Wang Ming didn't pay attention to Zhang Tao. Maybe she didn't know how to express her emotions. She wanted to be angry. Three bear cubs in her family beat one of them, who was still younger than them. In the end, all three of them were made to look like mud monkeys. Yes, there is nothing wrong with him, and he is too embarrassed to even go to Zhang Tao's house to file a complaint and make Zhang Tao suffer.

But if you don’t want to be angry, the three cubs look like mud monkeys. It’s hard to wash clothes in snowy weather, and it’s even more difficult to dry. They have to be dried by the stove.What is even more frustrating is that the cotton padded clothes worn by the children at this time usually only have one set, and if they get wet, they are washed and then dried, and the bear cubs in the family will have to suffer from the cold for a few days.

Thinking of this old lady Wang Ming, she felt more and more uncomfortable, and after giving Zhang Tao a cold look, she felt that she must teach those three bear babies a lesson tonight.The three big ones bully others and the one young one can't win, and the old lady who hurts them has to wash so many clothes in the cold, how can I not give them a good blow?
As for the sentence that the three bears who just returned home honestly could have their sentence reduced, she had long since forgotten it.

Zhang Tao ignored Mrs. Wang Ming's reaction, the reaction on her face was normal, it would be strange if she gave him a smiling face.But—as long as Wang Ming's mother goes back to beat her children at night, the children in the whole village will probably know about it tomorrow. The three Wang Ming brothers can't beat Zhang Tao alone.

At this time, adults always like to beat children and scream, and then several neighboring villages can hear the voice of teaching children here.Then other parents of children will immediately instill this kind of example in their children.

"Look at the child of that family who was beaten for disobedience. You must not be like him in the future, or else you will be beaten as well."

Thinking about the result of the fight between himself and the three brothers Wang Ming, Zhang Tao felt that he should be able to walk sideways on this road after school in the future. It is estimated that few people would dare to provoke him, even in school.

While thinking this way, Zhang Tao quickened his pace and rushed towards his home. Today, school has been delayed for a long time, and there are still many things at home that he needs to go back to do, so he has to go back quickly.

There are three brothers and sisters in Zhang Tao's family, and he has an elder brother named Zhang Yong.Now I am also in the sixth grade, and I am about to face the graduation exam for junior high school.At this time, the Xiaoshengchu graduation examination is not the kind of later generations that can directly enter junior high school. No matter what your grades are, you can go to the nine-year compulsory education in junior high school.

At this time, the nine-year compulsory education system was very loud, but even ordinary junior high school enrollment rates were very low.Moreover, the tuition fee is more expensive than one semester, which is not like nine-year compulsory education at all, but like using this slogan to slaughter ordinary people like pigs.

The most unbelievable thing is that the tuition fees are so high, but it is difficult to pay the teacher's salary, especially the substitute teacher, who often delays the salary for one semester and one year.

Zhang Tao remembered that his brother only admitted five students to his class this year, and the other twenty or so did not get promoted.But Zhang Yong just failed to pass the exam and sent him to junior high school with the money from his family selling a pig. What was even more frustrating was that he didn’t even get a junior high school diploma in the last three years of junior high school, and he still spent another 100 yuan. Money bought diploma from school.

This became the most frustrating thing for Zhang Tao's mother - in the next few years, as long as he went to junior high school for three years, anyone would be able to return with a junior high school diploma for free. It seems that this kind of certificate is of no value at all.

Zhang Yong usually walks with his classmates, never with Zhang Tao.Because Zhang Yong's grades are bad and Zhang Tao's grades are very good, so he usually doesn't talk to Zhang Tao very much.

The two brothers walked all the way for fear of being compared with others. At this time, the most popular ones are probably other people's children. Even brothers are compared. Their grades are not as good as their own brother's. It hurts their self-esteem to come together.

Zhang Tao's younger sister is Zhang Yan, who is still in preschool.At this time, there were no tall kindergartens in the countryside, and there was only one preschool class.Children who reach the age of six are sent directly to preschool for one year and two semesters, and then start from the first grade.

The curriculum of preschool is different from that of other grades. There are two classes in the morning and two classes in the afternoon. School ends earlier than other grades.So Zhang Tao was the last one to go home today because he was detained for a while and because of the fight on the road.

At this time, Zhang Tao’s house was still a tile-roofed house built of earth bricks, two and a half earth houses side by side, half a kitchen, a bedroom, and a bedroom and a living room.These houses were built by his grandfather, and they have a history of decades in their generation, so they look a bit dilapidated.

The roof tiles will leak when it rains heavily, and there will be small holes in the surrounding walls from time to time. In winter, the north wind blows into the room through the holes, and it feels cold.

When they got home, Zhang Yan and Zhang Yong were sitting around the stove warming up. His mother probably hadn't come back after being busy.Zhang Tao's family is a door-to-door son-in-law, and his father works in the south all the year round-at this time it is not called a part-time job, but a side job.

At most, I go home once a year during the Chinese New Year, and I don’t usually go home.Because the train is not easy to ride, even the green cage car, which is stuffy and ugly, and it is difficult to get on, and it takes two days to ride.It's like Zhang Tao's rebirth in his previous life. From the south to their city, two hours by high-speed train is enough.

So now all the family affairs are on Zhang Tao's mother alone, because Zhang Tao's family and his grandparents live separately.And Zhang Tao's mother has to take care of three children, and she has to do all the work in the fields by herself.

The population fields and dry land of several members of the family are all manually operated. It is hard to imagine. They get up early and stay late almost every day. They rarely have time to rest throughout the year, so now people in their 30s look like people in their 40s. generally.

Zhang Tao looked at the two people warming up the fire and said nothing. He was similar to this in his previous life. He rarely took the initiative to do housework after school.

Even if his mother worked so hard every day, the three brothers and sisters rarely understood the hard work of being a mother.At that time, Zhang Tao's mother always said that "the poor raise their sons, and the rich see their grandsons."

The general meaning of these words is that people who have no money are reluctant to spend on their own, and they are reluctant to let their children suffer like themselves. They always hope that their children will be promising and raise them very delicately.

On the other hand, those rich people will take good care of their children and grandchildren, and train them well. Anyway, this is what Zhang Tao felt from his mother's mouth.

Throwing his schoolbag into the pit, Zhang Tao first lit the firewood stove outside, and then began to heat the pig food on the stove.The big black dog at home followed behind Zhang Tao with its tail flicking, jumping happily. Obviously, it was also hungry now, so it wanted to eat pig food when it saw it, and it wanted to eat it first after following Zhang Tao.
