Pinellia pastoral

Chapter 191 Double Reed
Things in the school are going well.

Mr. Su is energetic when he is busy with things. This kind of spirit makes him several years younger, but after a few days, he looks a lot more cheerful.

When you meet someone on the road, you can stop and chat with them.

"Going to work in the workshop? Have you had breakfast? Oh, I'm so confused, I don't remember that the workshop is in charge of breakfast."

"What's the name of the one your baby brought you from the city? It's so old that it opened your eyes, me? You also know that the third child is an idiot, and the one brought back doesn't talk about food. It’s just for wearing, where are the novelties!”

"This kid still needs to study. He didn't have the skills before, but now that he's at the door, he doesn't need much money. After working in the workshop for two days, everything comes out, right?"

Talking all the way like this, Mr. Su has never had a long face.

Seeing that he was in a good mood, someone also jokingly said: "Master, you still say that the third child is stupid? There are no such obedient people. The wages sent out in this workshop turned around and went to the fifth side. We are more than happy to go in and out!"

Grandpa Su laughed out loud.

He worked very hard to greet people, looked from east to west without stopping all day long, and went door to door with the third grandpa Pinellia and several grain elders, it was a spit all over the place.

There are only two purposes. One is that we need everyone’s help to build a bamboo house. Even if he is busy, besides, only those who have labor at home go out to work and have spare money. This person is full of confidence, and when he is in a good mood, he will naturally be much softer.

The second is to find children to study, which is not so easy.

At the beginning of anything, I am afraid it will not be too easy.

The people in the village have worked with the soil for generations, and they grew up carelessly. They are lucky if they are not hungry. If they can earn two more acres of Susukida, life will be even more beautiful.

study?Although I am very envious, how many people can study?Someone in the Su family is studying, but he is the youngest son, and he has four older brothers!There is also the eldest grandson, the eldest Su Youde is also skilled in crafts and will not worry about eating and drinking all his life, he also sells tofu and saves money on food and clothing. He has only studied for so many years, but he has not seen anything.

It's better to raise them up, to be able to farm the land, and to work in the workshop to get paid, this is serious.

So, after wandering around for so long, everyone is very active when it comes to helping to build a school, but few people are willing to let someone's baby teach Shuxiu to study in the school.

Habits are always hard to change.

Especially without a role model in front of him, naturally no one would care.

Far wind?Anyway, he is also a scholar, so everyone naturally respects him on the face.

But with the door closed behind them, when the couple were discussing, they were a bit disrespectful: "Even if you are studying, you can't study in the future? You see, Yuan Guang is also studying, and he is still in charge of the accounts of the workshop, and he is polite when he sees people." I'm so angry, why didn't you be a good hand at herding cattle and collecting firewood before? This is what you should look like when studying, I look at that scholar, he didn't even look at his forehead."

As a result, those who are still on the sidelines will never mention the matter of sending their children to school.

Su Youwen, however, was not affected by these things at all. He wanted to be a teacher, and wanted to do the same thing with that expert who "has been friends with for a long time" but couldn't meet, so he wrote it down on paper seriously, and built a school for the rest. Recruiting students doesn't seem to have much to do with him.Or he never thought that there would be people who would not come to such a good school!
Mr. Su thought optimistically, he will talk about it after it is covered.

The bamboo hut was built so quickly that the whole village was mobilized. There was not much movement at the workshop at the beginning. Anyway, people from every household went to work, but they agreed to provide rice noodles for breakfast, and they were frightened by the crowds. Well, on the first day, almost everyone in the workshop became cooks.

Chopping bamboo, sawing wood, splitting bamboo into pieces, leveling the ground, digging foundations, twisting hemp rope...

But in a few days, several bright houses appeared not far from Banxia's new house. Although they were only bamboo houses, they were all supported by wooden pillars, the ground was laid flat, and the bamboo roofs It is also covered with thatch.

When Mr. Su took Su Youwen over to have a look, he said with a little regret: "Fifth, look, this room is the most spacious, good for studying or something, there are a few smaller rooms on this side, I can bring them later Warm the food for the big guys... When it gets better in the future, I will replace it with a big tile house..."

Mr. Su is full of ambition.

Su Youwen was also very interested at the beginning. Hearing what Mr. Su said, he was a little unhappy, but he couldn't refute, so he just said: "Isn't a bamboo house better than a tile-roofed house? There are tile-roofed houses everywhere, and how many schools are there?" Can it be the same as our bamboo house? Pinellia told me to paint it with tung oil, plant a few fruit trees here, and bamboo at the other end, if there is no bamboo, it will be vulgar..."

Mr. Su didn't mind too much, he just smiled.

This box is covered, and there are indeed no people who come to study.

The family kept it from Su Youwen, only saying that there were still some things not done well, and it was inconvenient to go in.

Unhurriedly set up tables and chairs.

Unexpectedly, Qiu Daming would be the first one to ask. He approached Su Youli: "Third son, I heard that a school has been built here. Maybe my kid Qiu Yi will go?"

Su Youli was a little surprised when he heard it roughly. Although he also knew that Qiu Daming was a knowledgeable person, the situation in his family...

Qiu Daming chuckled, scratched his head, glanced at Ban Xia who was staying by his side talking to Gu Ya'er, and said, "Although my kid is older and not as smart as Yuan Guang, fortunately, it's not too late No? I don't expect him to be able to get any fame, I just hope that he can read some characters and understand some principles, which is better than anything else."

Where did Su Youli refuse to agree, he just explained a few words to him, asked him to take the child to find Su Youwen, and asked if the family was okay.

After hearing this, Qiu Daming became a little excited, "I'm not afraid of your jokes, this... People can't be sick, and they lived a decent life before, but then they were dragged down and almost collapsed, thanks to you guys who saved me, Doctor Mu It's a..." Okay, it's just that my temper is too weird, and I almost get scolded a few times every time I go, but I can't refute a word.

But the medical skills are indeed top-notch. This is more important than anything else. Now that Lao Qiutou can be busy at home, he can grow soybeans with the people in the village with Qiu Daming. It was difficult in the past, only to realize that today's life is really sweet as honey.

Their family is content.

Qiu Yi studied, he didn't expect it at the beginning...

The two were talking, and they talked about soybeans.

The news that Qiu Daming wanted to send his boy to study and let him live in the bamboo house spread quickly.

Some people wonder, no one in this village goes to school, but it is cheaper for people in other villages?

Some people want to get to the bottom of it. Qiu Daming is not a stupid person. Why did he make such a decision?

Some people speculate that this is his fawning workshop.

It's just that the last statement obviously doesn't get approval, not to mention how the workshop should behave in the past few years, and everyone knows what it should do, and it's definitely not because of this.

People's mentality is always so strange, even if it is something you throw away and someone else picks it up like a treasure, you will regret it and think, did you make a mistake?

There was a commotion outside.

Qiu Daming came over to the workshop occasionally, but he never mentioned it. He was asked a lot, "Learn to read and understand, such a simple truth, there is no need to say it."

When the people left, he even felt a little confused about himself.

Ban Xia came out from one side, and said with a smile: "Uncle Daming, do you regret it?"

Qiu Daming was stunned for a moment, shook his head firmly, looked at Banxia and said: "There is nothing to regret, I just... I haven't figured it out yet, is this really useful?"

Naturally it is useful, when the school can't find anyone to study, Ban Xia will stand aside and think about it, and she can get a general idea of ​​other people's worries and worries, which is why she came to find Qiu Daming.

At that time, Qiu Daming was also stunned for a long time, but he thought that he was desperate to sell the field, and it was not because this workshop saved him, but also invited a good doctor to heal his father. Kindness, not to mention letting the child come to study, he is willing to be a cow or a horse.

So I should come down.

I still remember what Banxia said to him back then. She was in a hurry as an adult, but she could still understand those twists and turns. She saw that although she didn't study, she was literate. There were so many things in this book. The kid is studying, so it is natural that he will make a steady profit without losing money.

It's just that there are some things I don't understand.

"Uncle Daming, you can reveal a little bit about these two days, and say that this workshop is getting bigger and bigger, and there are not too many people who need it now, at least... there are fewer accountants, and the business is getting bigger. , naturally need to be literate." Ban Xia said lightly.

Qiu Daming's eyes shone with excitement.

It's here!How could he never have thought that there is always nothing wrong with studying. If you are not blind when you read and write, even if you fail to pass the exam as a scholar, there is still a way out. You don't have to work day and night. The last time I saw Brother Zhang Liu When they came back from the city, they said that there were many shops and even the clerks were literate, so they should talk about ancient times.

Dare to be true...

He didn't come back to his senses until Ban Xia had been gone for a long time.

That day, after eating, Qiu Daming got very drunk, and a young man in the village sent him home.

When he came back, there were rumors that this Qiu Daming was far-sighted. Seeing that the workshop was booming, if he was in charge in the future, how could he be illiterate?Working in a workshop every day is naturally easier than not being able to manage things with high wages.

This young man just told his brother to let his nephew go to study. His brother and his sister-in-law made a plan. The next day, the woman was a little unsure, so she went to discuss with the woman she was acquainted with...

It's snowballing.

There are ten or twenty children who want to study at once.

Pinellia is naturally happy to see its success.

　I'm very busy before the holiday, and there will be more updates in the next few days
