Giggling.

Only Koushiro's topic was more unique, "Auntie, Auntie..."

Xu Jiaojiao looked back at him, "What?"

Koushiro whispered, "Auntie, do you know how to read? Can you teach me how to read? I also want to be as smart as Auntie and be able to read..."

Xu Jiaojiao hummed?

This is a good boy with pursuits!

"Father, mother, and Silang want to learn how to read. It's a good thing. Sanlang, Shilang, and Wulang have nothing to do anyway, so why not go to the school in the town and take an enlightenment class..."

As Erlang gets older, he no longer considers going to school.

There are also Saburo, Shiro, Wuro, and Xiaoliu Lang, who can all start their enlightenment education.

Who knew that before she finished speaking, Mrs. Xu Zhang was the first to disagree.

"Where do they have the materials to study? Aren't they just wasting their tuition? A child in the school in the town will receive hundreds of pennies in half a year, not counting the gifts given to the wife during the holidays. Besides, there is already a scholar in the family.

You are already dying to become a scholar, why are you still studying? After reading a book, you won the title of scholar, and you have never been to your home. You only think about getting married from home all day long. What is the use of studying? "

Koushiro's head suddenly dropped with interest.

Xu Youde had no reaction when he heard the first half of the sentence, but when he heard the second half, he became obviously unhappy.

"If you don't agree, you don't agree. If you don't have money, you don't have money. What's the point of you criticizing Sophora japonica all day long? We have talented people in our family, so why are they useless? The output of our fields is not exempt from paying taxes every year.

Talent? Who wouldn’t respectfully call you a scholar?”

Xu Zhang originally just complained, but Xu Youde refuted it unexpectedly.

She chuckled, "Yes, the tax is exempted every year, but after harvesting grain, the boss moved more than twice the amount of taxes to the city! And he is a scholar? I rely on this scholar, I can

Can you still wear gold and silver after being popular and drinking spicy food? I need this scholar to put gold on my face? You are living off your scholar father all day long, right?"

After slapping Xu Youde in the face, he seemed really annoyed. He put down the bowls and chopsticks and said, "You!"

Looking at it, the atmosphere is not good.

Xu Jiaojiao quickly smoothed things over, "Forget it, mother, don't be angry. If they don't go to school, they won't go to school. I'll teach them how to read. Reading is not just to become a scholar or something, it's just to read the land deeds."

If you want to do a small business, you don’t have to ask for help. I’ll teach them. I’ll go to the town and buy some enlightenment books like the Three Character Classic. I’ll teach them a few words while I’m studying. Don’t be angry..."

Xiaoshiro cleverly said, "Yes, we will learn from my old lady and not go to school. Master, grandma, please don't be angry. I don't want to be a scholar."

Sanlang also quickly expressed his position, "I don't want to be a scholar either."

Wulang and Liulang are younger, and when they see their brothers talking, they imitate them in a decent manner.

"We don't want to be scholars either."

Xu Zhang's anger subsided a little.

But these boys' words make the word scholar look like a scourge.

Xu Youde seemed even more unhappy!

Xu Laoer and his wife, the eyes look at the nose, and the nose looks at the heart.

Xu Laosi and his wife also lowered their heads and did not dare to interrupt.

In short, Xu Zhang's mood determines the overall mood of the dinner table. Once Xu Zhang's emotional problem is solved, there will basically be no major problems.

No matter how dissatisfied Xu Youde is, he is still the head of the family, a man, and will not have random fits.

In addition, Xu Youde's self-cultivation has always been pretty good. In the old Xu family, there were not as many people who were afraid of him as there were those who were afraid of Xu Zhang.

Well, Xu Jiaojiao had another task inexplicably placed on her head, which was the literacy education of her nephews and nieces at home.

To be a teacher, she should look like a teacher.

The next day, she went to the town bookstore and bought a few simple enlightenment education books.

The Three-Character Classic, Hundreds of Family Surnames, etc.

They are all traditional Chinese characters, and she needs to understand and translate them first before she can slowly teach them.

Get up before dawn in the morning, run first, do morning exercises, and do horse walking. Then, the little kids get up, and teach them how to read for half an hour before starting to eat breakfast.

Everything is done early in the morning.

Do not interfere with your respective tasks for the day.

Xu Jiaojiao was used to getting up early in her previous life, so she didn't find it hard.

In my previous life, in the police academy, I often had training activities in the middle of the night, and got up before dawn in the morning to do various physical training.

Xu Jiaojiao's initial plan was to run three kilometers around the yard of Lao Xu's house. If she loses weight later, she can go into the mountains for high-intensity training.

…

Xu Laosi also went out, and the little ones in the fourth room were even more procrastinated. Xiao Liuzi used to have mucus on his face, but now it's all over his body, and Luo Shi didn't even wipe it.

Xu Laoer went hunting in the mountains every day, and sometimes he would bring back a few pennies or a few wild eggs or something at night.

All will be handed over to the public school.

Mrs. Xu Zhang watched Xu Laoer for several days. Xu Laoer always went to the mountains to hunt in the morning, came back for lunch at noon, and went back to the mountains in the afternoon...

In the next few days, Mrs. Xu Zhang relaxed her vigilance. Everyone in the family was looking forward to buying the piglet. Every day when eating, the little beans asked when they would buy the piglet. They all went into the mountains to look for it.

, there are a lot of wild vegetables in some places, and when Piggy buys them, he will shovel them back to eat.

On this day, after breakfast, an aunt from the same village came over to invite Mrs. Xu Zhang, saying that there was a piglet from a sow in the neighboring village that was full moon, and she could go and buy it.

For things like this kind of buying and selling of piglets in rural areas, it is usually done by looking for people who know the basics.

Such piglets are healthy and easier to feed.

If you don't know the root cause, who knows the age of the sow, whether the survival rate is high, and whether the piglets are diseased.

The age of the sow also determines the health of the piglets. Old sows are not good and have a low survival rate. It is better to have a sow in the prime of life, preferably one that has given birth to several litters of piglets.

Secondly, look at the boar from which family the boar is bred. The neighbors all know that if a good litter of piglets is born, there is no need to publicize it, and the surrounding neighbors will come to book it.

After Mrs. Xu Zhang decided to buy a piglet, she asked around who had a good piglet that could be born recently.

It happened that an aunt in the same village, who was about the same age as Mrs. Xu Zhang, got several hundred cash from the old Xu family's loquat ointment. She also planned to buy a piglet to feed.

The two of them found out that the Shili Tunzi Village next door happened to have a litter of pigs that were about to be born recently. They made an appointment to buy them together.

"Jiaojiao, Shili Village is a bit far away. Mom may not be able to come back in time for lunch at noon. You guys can prepare meals at home. Mom will give you the key. At noon, you go open the door of the house and get food for your second sister-in-law and let her cook.
